midnightstar | Happy Holidays Charlie Brown! .. oh wait wrong canon

Christmas and Thanksgiving were going to be difficult holidays for Regina and the kids. They had, for the most part, mended from the deaths of their friends, but this would also be the first Christmas slash Thanksgiving without them. So for that afternoon, she decided to let Natsu distract the kids and the dog for the time being. More than likely they were bundled up and jumping in piles of leaves outside, or begging Natsu for more demonstrations. As for herself, she went to help distract Regine with preparing food. Happily, Regina only took Lucy's bright smile for her natural demeanor and not for any other reasons.

On the other hand, Lucy hadn't been able to stop smiling since the night she and Natsu were.. er.. very intimate together. Assuming she didn't drift off into a dreamy spacey mode when she thought no one was looking. And if she actually saw him, forget it - it took everything she had not to grab him and hold him close. Heck, before that night she had difficulty keeping her eyes off him - it was more so now. SO it was probably for the best that she had something like cooking and entertaining Regine to occupy her attention.

If Regine noticed the way Lucy's conversation chatter kept turning to the topic of Natsu unconsciously, she didn't mention it, though she did seem amused for some reason. Currently the ladies were discussing options for the dinner - the kids wanted to start eating spicier food to - obviously - be more like Natsu after all.

She couldn't think the way he kept breaking her down. And she just got her voice back too! But the way he made her moan and cry out, that would be gone soon too. And OH, his words - his words and his actions were all too arousing, hips moving from simply bucking with his fingers to grinding and rolling, barely even resting on the mattress before he had her rocketing off of it again, his name easily the clearest thing out of her. Oh she said his name over and over again, all right, sometimes in a long moan, and sometimes a heated scream, her hands clutching the sheet, knuckles white. Her breathing came in sharp gasps, "Nggha.. Natsu.. NATSU-"

See, the problem (so to speak) with being driving absolutely -mad- from passion is that giving your partner and lover a small warning when you're near the edge of climaxing is kind of impossible. But she didn't think he'd mind - he'd probably be smug and happy as hell, actually.

She knew him so well. Yes he could love nothing more than sending her off with nothing but his hand and words before the main course. Natsu quickened his finger thrusts when he felt that rhythmic rippling of her inner walls around his digits. A sensation he was quite familiar with from another part of his body. But rather than tease about her being close, Natsu decided to just finish her once and let her ride it out.

Of course she did. They'd been together so long, they knew each other's moves perfectly - and now they were adding 'what made each other moan' to that library of information. With the increase in speed of his hand moving in her, her back arched more with each time she rocked her hips upwards with the feel of his hand until she reached the pinnacle of pleasure, a long moan filtering out as she clenched the sheets tighter, her body quivering with the tension until collapsing against the bed again, gasping and panting from the waves of intense pleasure. Frankly if she'd pulled those sheets any harder she might have ripped them and wouldn't -that- be embarrassing. Natsu'd never let her hear the end of it.

She was such a delectable show. Breasts heaving with each shuddering breath and her body locking up around his hand with such desperation he was compelled to lower his lips to Lucy's face and jaw as if to slowly coax her to relax. He moved his hand up to lightly thread to her hair while his lips wanderd over her cheek next.

Whether by coincidence or not, his kisses and the gentle touch did help help her relax; the wild pounding of her heart settling into a calmer rhythm as her breathing gradually started to even out. Even with that, it still took her a bit before she could speak, and when she did it was in a hoarse whisper, her eyes bright

"..I hope you don't think you're going to get away with that without consequences." The best kind, of course. Meaning he was going to have to wait on the main course, since she had every intention of returning the favor. She remembered from that brief touch that he'd been hard, and she intended to keep up with every mind-blowing, exhausting move of his.

The look in her eyes. Oh how he loved that look. Enough to root him in place for her to try and even the score. Natsu smiled softly down at her before she made that claim that turned it into a grin.

"Oh I know exactly what I signed up for~ And all of it is something I want~"

And she loved that grin of his. Loved everything about him, but -especially- that grin. "Good," she purred in a low, sultry tone as she pressed herself closer to him, her hand finally moving over the flat of his stomach and sliding lower, "Because I'm not letting you go until I even the score." She grinned, "Well.. Maybe not even then."

Let's be fair, she wasn't letting him go ever and she knew it. So as her hand moved lower towards its destination, she leaned in, pressing her lips against his chest and leading in the opposite direction up towards his neck, though she held off nipping or biting this time. For now. In her opinion it had been much too long since she kissed him, and that was her other goal, pressing her lips and tongue against his mouth surprisingly aggressively at the same time as her hand reached that warm length between his legs.

"Well don't think I'll make it easy for you~" Natsu smirked and leaned in to tease her wiht a promise of a kiss before she started pressing her lips to his chest like that while her hand moved lower. Oh a two prong attack was her idea? Not bad given the grunting moan she tore from his lips as her slender fingers touched his length.

"Mngh not bad. Lets see if you can keep going" Natsu taunted and moved one hand up along Lucy's side, clearly heading higher and higher up her body.

She smirked back at him, "Oh~, a challenge is it? I'll remember that." She promised with a teasing grin that bubbled into a giggle at the taunt, "Are you underestimating me?" She shifted slightly, feeling his hand sliding up her side. Sneaky bastid was going to try and distract her was he? How underhanded! She paused only for a moment to dip into the well of creativity, to think of something that might one-up him - or even better, curling her fingers to use both fingers and thumb to massage over his member slowly, her lips parting slightly, enough that he could feel her tongue tracing along with that line of kisses roving over his body.

That smirk. Oh god that smirk could light a fire in him any time of day. But it also made him want to compete even more and right now that competition involved trying to get in her way as much as possible before he could melt under her concentrated attack. Which would probably happen regardless if last time he let her take charge was any indicator.

"Not at all~ I'm just giving you a great enough challenge for your strengths~" Natsu answered back before a shuddering groan was torn from his lips when she started kissing and licking along his chest while her hand started working his length with almost tortuous slowness.

They were utterly ridiculous in all things casual and intimate, and now that trait shined through even more. "Oh~, is that so.." she gave a husky chuckle, "Well I'll just have to make sure I meet that challenge to your satisfaction." Continuing to work her hand over him with that same firm, slow touch, almost teasing him, she continued working her way up his chest, detouring briefly to kiss his guild mark, moving up to his neck with soft kisses. "I can't get enough of hearing you moan like that." she purred.

If they were afraid things would change and get more tense or awkward between them once they became a couple completely, those worries had been laid to rest long ago. They were still she same silly pair that loved nothing more than to spend time with each other and be silly. It had just broadened the ways that could be achieved.

And Natsu certainly wasn't complaining as another low growling moan slipped from his lips when he heard Lucy's words. A noticeably shudder wracked his body when he felt those lips on his mark. Oh he was going to return that gesture for sure. AT the perfect time to boot.

"Mngh. Now you know how I feel~"

She chuckled again, her hand moving slightly quicker over him with a slight roll of her wrist, "Mmm, I guess I do," she agreed with a smile, moving her trail of kisses up his throat to nip his jaw lightly before kissing the side of his mouth, her eyes finding his with unfair smile and all. "You steal my breath -and- my voice away," she teased, her lips brushing against his, "S'only fair I do the same." The tip of her tongue brushed against his lips with intent of kissing him more deeply and - yes, she was definitely planning on attempting to dominate in that kiss once his lips parted.

Natsu could only try and endure her delightful assault, keeping his wits about him proving more and mroe difficult as her lips trailed over his jaw like that. He was undoubtedly stronger than her in most ways and yet here he was, slowly rendered at her mercy as the pleasure she gave, flooded his body and clouded his mind, making it harder to keep his focus on anything except her.

"I should do it more often thennn~ If it gets you this wild~"

She blushed slightly, chuckling as she nuzzled against his neck affectionately, "Hmm, maybe you should." She teased. It still amazed her he got her so fired up like that. But they had very different styles when it came to rendering each other speechless and breaking each other down until they were overwhelmed by the state of pleasure and passion and at each other's mercy. Her lips found his, short, lingering and hungry kisses each time to let him savor the feeling and sensation of her slightly more than a little aggressive assault.

Blushing even while she was taking charge. Of course she would since it wouldn't be Lucy if she didn't. His hand moved down along Lucy's side while her own continued to work him up even as their lips met with brief but passionate kisses that only made that internal fire of his burn ever stronger.

She Couldn't help it. The things he said still embarrassed her -though in a good way. She nipped his lips briefly, before letting her lips brush down towards his neck, proceeding to nip him and letting it gradually nip harder until she was half nibbling and half biting his neck - with added bonus of adding her lips and tongue to the effect. Seems she was intent on torturing him by not stopping as she promised earlier. Maybe her favorite method really was two prong attacks, considering her hand was moving in tandem with her bites.

He certainly didn't want that part of her to change. It was honestly strange how thrilling he felt it when she was taking control in these things, especially with those delicious bites and nibbles at his neck. She was well on her way to giving him another mark he'd have to be persuaded to cover up.

"Ngh shit! L-Lucy~" Natsu groaned as her hand continued to work him up at the same time, making him grow hotter and harder against her hand.

It wasn't likely to, ever. That saying, 'the more things change, the more they stay the same'? Absolute truth. She pauses a fraction of a second hearing that groan of her name, sucking in a breath, before growling his name under her breath in return, her hand moving harder and faster, feeling the response he had to her bites under her hand. She didn't stop though, instead moving up his neck to nip his ear, her low voice murmuring purrs and low growls of his name repeatedly. After all, she distinctly remembered him saying he liked her saying his name like that.

His hole body arched up into her when she said his name like that, trapping her hand against between their two bodies while she continued to stroke him up into a slow burning frenzy that threatened to consume whatever bit of sanity he still had left at this point. And he would gladly let that turn to ash if it meant enjoying these sensations even longer.

She was absolutely fine with that - considering he got her wild into a maddening frenzy of desire too. She wanted him to be consumed by that same fire until he couldn't think about anything -but- the sensation, and her. When she felt him arch into her and trap her hand like that, she couldn't properly move her hand, so she let her fingers move instead, rubbing and stroking him, her tongue slowly tracing the edge of his ear with soft purrs and growls.

Natsu was getting increasingly restless, with his hips pushing up against her hand with growing frequency. His breathing quickened as well and his kisses and nips were becoming more frantic and unorganized. The desperation in his body language so palpable, Lucy could probably taste it on the air.

Oh she could taste it all right. It tasted like victory! Well victory in the sense of driving him mad the way he had her. She nipped his ear, before dipping her head in to give him a rather possessive kiss she purred into, designed to steal his breath away as well. At the same time she moved her hand with the motion of his hips, increasing the speed when he did. It was a new discovery for her, how much she'd enjoy driving him over the edge like this. The first time she only pushed near the edge, stopping before he went completely mad. She'd committed herself to the goal utterly this time.

Was it really victory? She was only evening the score as it were. Well that was implying he could even think straight anymore. Which if his grunting and growls for Lucy were any clue, was not the case at all. He accepted that kiss with hunger that made it feel like he'd gone without the taste of her lips for a lifetime and his grunting huffs turned to their most desperate yet as he felt himself right on the cusp of his climax.

Well.. victory in evening the score then. His hunger matching hers she growled into, her tongue delving into his mouth eagerly, her eyes half lidded to watch him. From the way his body was arching and the sounds coming from him, she'd estimate he wasn't long from his own climax, bringing them to even that score. Of course, it was much, MUCH more than being about simply evening the score between them. Being able to bring him that much pleasure and drive him wild made her thoroughly pleased, her hand pressing quickly against him through those desperate grunts and huffs.
