{Lucy’s POV}

Happy, excited, angry... I didn’t really know my emotion anymore. It’s all mixed up like a salad.

I brought out the spare key Erza gave me before I went out the house and put it in the keyhole. Once it clicked open, Natsu sighed exaggeratedly and jumped, getting excited about the video games.

Noticing that nobody was home yet, I rolled my eyes and went to where the mini bar was, pulling out a strong wine which Cana recommended me back when we were still high school kiddos. It wasn’t my habit to drink alcohol; I never really drank one. This was gonna be the first time I’m drinking.

Natsu strolled casually by the mini bar, whistling a familiar song. His jaw dropped to the floor once he saw me holding a wine bottle and a little glass in hand. He quickly snatched it from me. “What are you doing, woman?”

“Holding a wine bottle and a glass? I’m gonna drink. Do you have a problem?”

He glared at me. “I have a problem. You drinking.”

“Mother? Is that you?” I asked sarcastically, lifting an eyebrow. “No. Okay, now I’m having it. I’m not a little kid, you know?” Finally, I was able to snatch it from his grasp. “Thank you.” I could feel his shocked stare.

“Why are you drinking?”

“Why don’t you mind your own business?”

“Because Lucy Heartfilia is my best friend by all means?” He said suggestively, raking his hands over his hair. “There’s no way I’m letting you drink that.”

I bit my lip, irritated by the answer he just gave me. What a... never mind. “I’ve got a problem, okay? Don’t mind me. You’ve got your own life. Go back to playing your beloved damn video games.”

“Well then, I will.” He stormed out of the mini bar furiously as I started pouring myself a shot of... whatever this is called. Two shots, and I started feeling dizzy and crazy. World was spinning around me.

Five more shots and... I don’t know what’s happening anymore.

*-*-*-*-

Standing up, I saw Natsu leaning by the doorframe, eyeing me sternly. Two Natsus... what the heck is happening to me? I stumbled my way over to him, and he got startled when I landed on him so he lost balance. We were sprawled on the floor, and all I did was giggle and laugh.

“Lucy, get off of me!”

“Nah, you’re too comfortable.”

“I ain’t a freaking pillow!” He tried to shrug me off. “Goodness, you’re so heavy.” I giggled loudly and snuggled closer to him. “We’re on the floor, you idiot!”

I got teary eyed by what he just called me. “I’m an idiot?”

“Yeah!”

“But you like this!”

“No! Get off!” With a sad sigh, I got off of him, knees wobbly when I almost successfully managed to stand up. Luckily, there was a table behind me. “Go to your bedroom.”

“I don’t wanna!” I whined like a little kid.

“But we’re gonna practice our latest music video tomorrow! First thing in the morning!”

“The others aren’t here yet...” I mumbled, pouting. “What do you say? You want to do something exciting and enjoyable?”

“L-Like what? Oh, no! You should go to bed!”
