Chapter 17

Natsu couldn't sleep..

Ever since he caught lucy eyeing him up, he felt like she was being more fixated on how he sat, how he walked, how he ran, etc. etc…

He was becoming more insecure that maybe lucy was hinting him to straight up flash her with his cock.

Like, What was her deal?!?

••••

Natsu sighed as he sat in the guild with some serious eye bags. Grey sat by him on the bar as he didn't like natsu's new quiet side of him. Enough was enough!

"What's wrong with you Flame-Breath!!! What is up with you!!!"

*grey finally spoke up as he huffed out at natsu who has his head down.*

"… nothing… just some girl stuff…"

*natsu muttered as grey was taken back by his calm response. What the hell happened to him!!!?*

"What do you mean girl stuff? Are you on your man period or something?!"

*grey teased as natsu shook his head finally sitting up as he stared at grey straight in the eyes.*

"Grey! You know about girls more then me! What does it mean when they look at your crotch for prolonged periods of time!!"

*natsu held greys shoulders as grey sweatdropped at his dense friend..*

".. well.. that depends… is this about lucy?"

*grey asked as natsu looked away with a blush and nodded.*

"Ah!.. wow.. then that means you have finally done something right with your life, Squinty Eyes! Hahaha!"

*grey laughed as natsu finally began getting angry at him*

"Tell me!! Tell me what it means Ice princess!!"

Grey wiped a tear away as he let out the remainder of his giggles as he finally decided to tell him.

"That just means she interested in you now… not meaning like 'in love' because she already loves you… she's just 'eyeing' you at how much she can take of you… you probably did something that left her with a really good visual of your 'stuff'.."

*grey says as he looked away from natsu to take a shot of his alcohol… he wished to not continue this trail of conversation anymore..*

"Oh.. huh.. so, she is horny then?.. "

*natsu said bluntly as grey spit his drink out and choked in his alcohol. He looked at natsu not sure if natsu was all that innocent now or if he knew about the opposite sex…*

".. well… yeah … but that's on you now… you can't ask me what to do from here on out!.."

"But… me and Lucy already had that talk… we agreed to take things slow.. is 1 year already enough for us to begin doing 'that'?"

*natsu asked honestly since he didn't have much experience in dating or being in a relationship, grey only sighed as he already fell in this stupid scenario that he didn't want… he was gonna have to teach natsu how to woo a woman huh?*

"Come closer natsu, .. it doesn't matter how long one waits- being 1 month or 5 years… but it's what you feel in here-"

*grey pointed at natsu's chest as he pressed hard where is heart was… natsu shook his head as he kept listening.*

"So, whatever you feel next time your alone with her.. go with your gut, also if you do decide to .. um, .. *ahem* have sex with her… then .. be gentle.. she's probably never tried it either so, just ask her what to do and how to do it.. she knows her body more then me or you.."

*grey finished off his pep talk as he leaned away from natsu to rub the back of his neck at how awkward that talk was…*

"Ah.. I see… thanks grey… you really are a good friend when you don't have a icicle up your ass.."

*natsu grinned widely as he drank his shot of alcohol mira had placed infront of him some time ago as he waved goodbye to grey.*

"Why you! … he's finally growing up… stupid natsu.."

*grey turned around as he felt lonely now at the bar, he had a feeling he wouldn't see his friend natsu that often anymore..*

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Natsu made it back (home?) to Lucy's apartment as he took off his shoes and let out a yawn that would look identical to that of a lions yawn. He was finally able to try getting some sleep knowing now what was Lucy's deal.

He saw she wasn't home yet so he decided to plop himself on her bed as he took off his scarf to set it aside and got comfy to take a nap. He felt like he was in a deep slumber as he could remember his dream hours after, but woke up to some sounds coming from the bathroom.

He was still groggy with sleep as he scratched his messy bed head and looked at the window to see what time it was. He saw it was some time after sunset as he no longer saw the sun but the sky was still in a pink and yellow hue.

He stood up now as he stretch his bones from their stiffness as he approached the door. He didn't quite pay attention to the noises coming from the bathroom but only assumed lucy was home.

He opened the door carefully this time since last time she had threw a big fit over him startlingly her. But as he entered the bathroom, he quickly sobered up from his drowsy state as he caught a glimpse of Lucy through the curtains moaning in the tub.

He blushed as he kept staring at Lucy as he watched her doing 'something' underneath the water…

He couldn't help it now as he decided to take off his vest slowly as he decided, to join Lucy in her 'mysterious' bath.. he was going to get to the bottom of this.
