The Guardian and The Priestess

Wandering

I woke early in the morning, to wake Natsu up.

"Nat-" I knocked, but the door already opened.

"Hi Lu-shee!" Happy smiled as soon as he opened the door.

"Good morning, Happy!" I greeted back.

"Come in! Nat-zu told me to let you in, as soon as you knock!" Happy smiled, leading me towards Natsu's bed.

I sat on the end of Natsu's bed and lightly shook him.

"Five more minutes, Happy..." Natsu groaned, and I chuckled.

"I'm not Happy." I stated, clearing my throat, and Natsu fell down his bed.

"Luce?" he huskily asked, peeping from his blanket, and I laughed.

"G'morning!" I greeted cheerfully, and he flushed.

"What are you doing here?" he questioned, looking confused.

"Didn't you tell Happy to let me in, when I knock?" I asked back.

He glared at Happy, who's now currently sleeping heavily.

"Wake up, you little demon!" Natsu screeched, choking Happy to death.

Happy kept apologizing, but a blazing Natsu kept on hitting him in the head.

"I think that's enough, Natsu. I can leave, you just had to say it beforehand." I sweat-dropped.

Natsu stopped hitting Happy in the head and turned to me.

"That's not exactly... why I'm scolding-" Natsu explained, but I cut him off.

"Beating." I clarified.

"Beating Happy... It's because..." he continued, blushing.

"He l-l-l-likes you!" a beaten up Happy interjected, rolling his tongue.

"HAPPY!" Natsu roared and continued beating the poor cat.

"He's just kidding, Natsu." I chuckled and he flushed, then lets Happy go.

"Get up from there. Let's meet up with the others." I smiled and he nodded.

"Take Happy with you." Natsu ordered and Happy launched to my chest.

Natsu gave Happy a death glare, before proceeding to the bathroom.

He decided to change his clothes and do his morning rituals, first.

I walked out of his room with Happy, and went straight to the dining room where Mira-san was cooking.

"Good morning, Lucy-san and Happy!" Wendy greeted, cheerfully.

"Good morning Lucy-nee and Happy!" Romeo chirped.

"Morning Wendy! Morning Romeo!" I greeted them back, just as cheerful.

"Aye Sir!" Happy chirped, snuggling on my arms.

That reminds me.

"Wendy?" I called and she smiled.

"Can you show me, Charles exceed form?" I asked, pleadingly.

"Of course, Lucy-san!" she chuckled and called on Charles.

She summoned Charles to transform to her exceed form.

There it was a white flying neko and Happy's eyes twinkled.

"Charles!" Happy greeted, offering a fish-from-who-knows-where he got it from.

"Hmph." The sassy white neko responded, rejecting the fish.
