Spending day after day in the cabin Natsu had built near the Guild, going on missions and living, being WITH Natsu was plain and simple, pure. Heaven. Lucy could genuinely not think of any time she was as happy as she was with him. It still amused her to think of the times she was too flustered to acknowledge her feelings for him, until things came to a head.
And then the kids came along during that mission - Nev and Justine, along with their 'mom' Regine. If Natsu becoming an integral part of Lucy's life was like completing her, then the kids and Regine were the added frosting on a perfected cake. Yeah that metaphor was all over the place. GRANTED it was a little difficult to get time alone with Nev and Justine almost demanding their attention a good amount of the time, but she didn't mind, and didn't think Natsu did either. They had their evenings together, and their little hiding spots to sneak away to, sometimes just for fun.
Meanwhile the first rays of light were beginning to filter in through the window-shades of their room, with Lucy snuggled up against Natsu's side, an arm wrapped around him with a faint smile on her lips. Not quite awake yet, but in that in-between point of just about to rouse. The birds had barely even begun to chirp when the distant BAM! of a door swinging open, followed by barely hushed giggling voices and scampering feet could be heard by Dragonslayer senses with ease, obviously heading towards said cabin.

Still she only breaks the kiss at the last minute, when she needs to breathe, and still lets her lips brush against his gently when she finds it possible to speak, "Natsu..." she purrs with such joy and happiness and love in that one word, it was more potent than any number of 'I love you's' she could have said.
"You really ..really do drive me wild." she chuckled softly.

Though after a moment, she gave a small groan, more from the soreness she felt than from anything else, as she tried shifting on top of him to get more comfortable, ".. Nngg, I'm sore all over.." Her gaze slid over to him, still dazed and adoring, "..but it's more than worth being with you like that."

"Couldn't agree more~ My queen~"

Date: 2018-02-22 01:11 am (UTC)From:"Hmmm," she pondered for a moment, then nodded a little, "I suppose you do have a point...I do sleep the best when I'm in your arms." And her mouth always felt sore from how much she was smiling in her sleep for it.
