Lucy chuckled, "Oh will you now?" She'd have to agree with the assessment. Having him close and knowing he was hers, and she was his - nothing could top that feeling. Loving him so much it transcended anything else she could think of. She smiled warmly at the feel of his face against her neck, lifting a hand to pet his back idly.

"Natsu.. let's make a promise." Maybe promise wasn't the right word? But it worked for the purpose she had in mind. "I know it's a long, long way off," at least she hoped, "But let's promise to find each other again, in the next life. And the next, and the next and the next -" And so on and so forth. Well, she didn't even know if there -was- such a thing as reincarnation. But if there was, she wanted to spend it with him there too.
