The Dragon and The Princess

Chapter 33

•Lucy's POV•

Right now we continue to walk down the path from the entrance of the cave to the main road... At least I think that's where we're going. It's just that we've been walking for a very long time.

What if were lost?! Erza's the navigator though so I'm not even going to bother asking her. She would probably give me a death glare for even asking! I could imagine it now. Maybe I should get someone else to do it for me! Yes, this is a perfect plan!

I glanced around. Everyone seems busy in their own conversations! And here I am plotting to trick someone into asking Erza a stupid question! Natsu and Gray are fighting, I can hear their insults flying everywhere. Levy and Gajeel are being all lovey dovey, which is weird to see them do that.

Usually they are fighting over something, I guess it's not that weird to see them hugging and giggling. Okay enough of observing Levy and Gajeel! My eyes wander over to the cats. They are talking about something very serious. I can tell by the emotions on their faces. I wonder what their talking about.

Probably about fish, so I won't ask. But what if I did ask? Would they turn me away because I'm not a cat? Okay I really need to stop being so weird. What do the cats have some kind of cat club? No, so I'm just going to leave that thought alone.

I sigh as I look over to my right. Cana is talking to Romeo and Wendy. I felt myself sweating as I looked at them. Cana was teasing them. Oh boy. Cana's teasing is worse than anybody's. Not even Levy or Mira are as bad as Cana is. Cana's mind goes to dirty places.

I laughed nervously as I scooted away from them quietly, but Cana saw me. I froze. Cana winked at me as she kept walking with the others. I knew what that wink meant. It was the I'm going to get you and Natsu later kind of wink.

   "What are you thinking about Lucy-san?" Juvia asked behind me. I squealed as I turned around to see Juvia. She was smiling. I sighed as I put a hand up to my forehead. I didn't even realize she was behind me, she's like a ninja sometimes. Juvia's usually very silent.

   "You scared me." I laughed. Juvia's eyebrows raised as she began to walk and reached out to grab my arm. I totally forgot I stopped walking. Juvia laughed as she let go of my arm and we both got to a comfortable pace.

Juvia and I walked at the very back of everyone. I didn't even notice I was slowing down, how weird. I haven't really spoken to Juvia lately. I've been a little caught up with some stuff though. What should I talk about? When did I become so bad at conversations with people!?

   "How are you and Gray doing?" I blurted out. Juvia sighed happily when I asked her this. Oh thank god I found a topic she can go on forever about! But I kind of did want to know. I mean Natsu and I practically got these two together, I hope their okay.

   "Gray-sama and I are doing amazing." Juvia giggled. She looked so in love. I was so happy to hear her say that. It made me think I did something good in my life. I fought some crazy girl and got these two hitched. Well they haven't been married, yet, but they will.

   "Except when he blames me for wetting the bed." Juvia pouted. I felt my jaw hit the ground. What?! I felt like some conversation was similar to this exact one, but I can't put my finger on it. Déjà vu?

   "Y-You wet the bed?" I stuttered. Juvia nodded her head but then she frowned. She must have meant something else. Juvia was a grown woman, she wouldn't wet the bed. Or could I be wrong? I have no idea what happens behind closed doors anyways.

   "Sometimes Juvia has wet dreams." Juvia tried to correct herself. My eyes widened and I could feel more shock run through me. Cana had told me about wet dreams. I had to learn the hard way about what they were. Damn Cana and her pranks!
