The Dragon and The Princess

Chapter 13

•Lucy's POV•

Remember when I said that I wasn't going to get any rest while sleeping on the floor? Well, I was right. But, I did get to sleep for a good 30 minutes. My dream was something I had no control over! I can usually tell when I'm having a dream, so why didn't I stop it? You're probably wondering what my dream was about, so I'll tell you.

•Lucy's Dreamland•

I felt something warm touching my hand, and it felt soft. I opened my eyes to see a white scaly scarf from my past dream. Why was it here? I traced my fingers across the square pattern of the scarf, wondering if it was as soft as it looks, and trust me, it was soft. So soft. Even though this is a dream, the scarf is so smooth and silky. I felt something snuggle into my chest and yelped in alarm.

This is when I really looked at my surroundings. I was in my bed, well Natsu's bed really. I could feel someone resting on my stomach and it was freaking me out. I peered down and saw a lump in the blanket, almost like a head. I lifted the blanket with precaution, just in case Happy were to pop out and scare me. When I picked it up, I caught a glimpse of pink, wait pink? And the scarf was even attached to this pink thing. I reached down and felt the pink fluffy object. I started to touch it, and noticed it was hair. It was really smooth hair though, so soft that I wanted to never stop touching it.

I only stopped when I heard a groan coming from the person with pink hair. I automatically pulled my hand back and hit myself on the face. What the heck was I thinking? I can't just touch someone's hair without permission! Well then again, this was my dream. I pulled down the blanket to reveal the pink haired person, or should I say boy!

I studied the boy's face and realized he resembles a child. Even though he looked a bit childish, he looked like a man. The pink haired fellow was the most handsome boy I had ever seen, he had an amazing jaw line too. I didn't notice it, but I began to unconsciously touch his hair again. The boy smiled, it was such a carefree smile too. I've seen this smile before, it looked a lot like... Natsu's. But Natsu was a dragon, not a human. But only if he was human, I would... what!? Do not finish that sentence Lucy! If I start thinking like that who knows where that will get me!

"Lucy." The boy groaned. I stopped moving my hand. His voice, sounded like Natsu's. Maybe this was Natsu, I guess I pictured him like this as if he was human. But I've never dreamed of something this vivid. My brain couldn't do something like this. I took my finger and started to outline his face, no way would I be able to make someone as perfect as him. I really need to stop reading those romance novels!

"Lucy." The assumed 'Natsu' groaned again. I think I'm going to have a heart attack if he says my name one more time. He was so cute in his sleep! Natsu was also grinning, that's a bit weird. I could see his mouth moving as if he was whispering something, so I moved closer to his face and tried to hear him better. I heard something but couldn't quite make it out, a faint whisper was all I could hear. Once I was a few inches in front of his face, I began to decipher what he was saying.

"You're my princess!" Natsu whispered, suddenly engulfing me with his warm arms.

I tried to get away but I couldn't move. Natsu pulled my whole body tightly against him, he was spooning me! Natsu had his arms wrapped tightly around my waist, so there was no escape. Natsu stuffed his head into the crook of my neck and stayed there. Oh my Mavis, WHAT AM I DOING! Why aren't I giving him a good Lucy kick right in the face?

"You smell good." Natsu stated. Even in my dream, I could feel my pulse quicken, and my heart race, all because of how cute his voice was.
