My Enemy {Nalu}

Chapter 29: The Fun Has to End

Normal POV

     Lucy sat at the dinner table with Wendy and   Nashi in a very angry mood. One because dinner was slowly getting cold. Two because Natsu still wasn't home and his was about two hours late. Eyes twitched Lucy stood up and slammed her hands on the table.

    "I'll be right back!" She yelled as she stomped off to find her phone. She angrily scrolled through her contacts looking for the contact name of Hubby💕. She pressed call and placed the phone to her ear tapping her foot rapidly.

"Hey baby-"

   "don't you hey baby me, your almost two hours late, dinner is done we've been waiting for you to come home so we can eat. It's 8 o'clock at night so I know there's no traffic." Lucy ranted. "I'm sorry I should've called but I got caught up in some last minute work so I didn't won't to spend anymore time trying to call you when I could've just been working" Natsu tried to explain to his angry wife.

   Lucy let out a frustrated sigh. "Why don't you and the girls eat, tuck Nashi in and could you come up here and help me please.." hearing the desperation in his voice Lucy couldn't say no to him. "Alright I'll be there in about twenty minutes" "thanks hun love ya" "me too" Lucy hung up and set her phone back on the coffee table.

     She felt bad getting so angry at him being late because of work. But even after everything that's happened Lucy couldn't help but be worried, what if something .. that was happening all over again. Lucy shook her head.

    'No Lucy its work duh he just asked you to come help him. He's your husband, you have Nashi and Wendy.' Lucy told her self twisting her wedding band around her finger.

    She walked her self back into the dining room and sat down. "Okay let's eat ladies" wendy inhaled her food and excused her self to her room. She also got a new phone today so she's finally able to FaceTime her "not boyfriend". Lucy chuckled and happy Nashi finish her food and got her all cleaned up ready for bed. "Goodnight sweet pea, mommy loves you" Lucy kissed her daughters head and tucked her in.

     She tapped on Wendy's door. The door cracked and Wendy peeked out. "Yes?" Lucy raised an eyebrow. "I have to run to the office, apparently Natsu's loaded with work. Hehe needs my help after all" Lucy smiled finally feeling useful. "Nashi's in bed, but just letting you know I'll be out. You're 17 so I shouldn't have to explain the rules. No boys over okay?" Wendy's face flushed. "Lucy-san!!" She squealed before quickly closing her door.

   Lucy laughed and left taking the car into the city. She pulled up to the office and unlocked the door. It was strange being here so late, no one else was here and it was all dark. Lucy had never stayed in the office last sunset. It was her policy that everyone be home or off work by sunset. No one was allowed to work over time. She wanted people to spend time with the friends or family. Lucy made her way up to top floor and walked towards the office.

    "Natsu.." she whispered as she pushed the door open.

    The lights were dimmed and it was quiet. Sure enough there was a large stack of papers on the desk, but they all seemed in order. Lucy was confused and walked around the desk to see Natsu sleeping behind the large stack. He had a pen in his hand and one paper left to sign.

     Lucy smiled softly and took the pen from his grasp and signed it placing it on top of the stack. Lucy leaned over and tapped on Natsu's shoulder and whispered in his ear. "Wake up babe" Natsu's eye squeezed tightly before he opened them Lucy at his beautiful wife. He gave a drowsy smile as he sat up straight yawning.

"Hey baby"

     "did you get a good nap?" Lucy asked as she walked over and sat down on his lap laying her head on his shoulder. He leaned his head against hers. "Yeah, I didn't realize how tired I was until I had about 20 files left to read and fill out." "To bad I wasn't here, I've done stacks bigger than that in less than an hour" Lucy teased because he knows she's a fast reader.
