Chapter 23

Heyo guys surprisingly this chapter was on time so I hope you like it and will tell me what you think. Enjoy chapter 23!

Natsu's~P.O.V

Of course everyone knows where the Dragneel and Heartfilia Mansions are because they are usually the largest in every town, city or country. So thanks to the internet you can find the address to any of these houses, not the greatest thing but it is sure helpful. I've been to their house here in Crocus a couple of times for events when I was about 16 to 18 but then I was busy with college and traveling, so I stopped coming. 'Even though if you did you probably meet Lucy sooner and then you wouldn't have had so many one-night stands and you would still be together'. Almost every time they came to our parties or vice versa, for some reason I never saw or talked to her. I do remember when I was 10 I was forced to go to my parents friends daughter birthday party and it just happened to be the Heartfilia's. Lucy was having her 7th birthday and she kept following me around trying to make me play with her, she wanted me to be a prince and I told her I like dragons and she just happened to not like dragons because they kill heroes and then left me alone. If I had known how smart and nice she was and not annoying and small, then I think we might of grown up as friends, but then again I didn't like girls they always wanted to play inside and I liked mud so they stayed away.

It was 8 o'clock and it was dark when I pulled up to the mansion the gate didn't have a guard because it was one that had movement sensors, that flicked the lights on and had a key pad with a speaker for guests. I remember my parents lead maid, Mavis said she knew Lady Heartfilia's personal maid named Zera, so maybe if I can talk to Zera she'll let me in and I can go see Lucy, 'I am such a genius' 'I'm going to go get Lucy back'. I drove up to the gate and clicked the button and heard a beep.

"Hello Heartfilia residences, what can I help you with here?" A strong male voice came through the speaker.

"Um, well I'm Natsu Dragneel and I need to speak to Lady Heartfilia's lead maid, Zera. But please don't tell any of the Heartfilia's I'm here." I said quickly but clear enough for him to understand.

"Uh, yes sure Sir Natsu, please drive through the gate and to the guest house garage it will be opened and ready for you, I will have Zera come out there ASAP." The man said and the gate jerked to life and opened up leading me down a path of trees and rose bushes. 'Glad I didn't decide to jump the wall this place is covered in a maze of rose bushes of all colors, but all neatly blended together'. I went right like the man said and there was another path that led to a 2-story guest house, which is the size of a regular 2-story townhouse.

I parked and I stepped out of the car, not sure if I had to wait in here or in the house, but I decided to go in. The house was dark and the only lights were coming from outside which when I looked was a whole glass wall with the view of a pool and further away was a tennis court, The pool was radiating light everywhere you could have probably seen it from the main house. But I noticed the water ripple and I looked to see where the ripple began and I saw Lucy pulling herself out of the pool, she was wearing a white one-piece that was an open back but the front cleavage gap was open all the way down to her navel. (A/N: I hope you know what I mean? Sorry for being a horrible describer.) I nearly stumbled out of the house to go straight to her and kiss her and apologize for letting Sorano kiss me, but instead I tripped over a small table and knocked over a vase, which shattered and she looked over but before she could see me I threw myself over the couch and stayed low, 'God, that hurt, the pain you put me through everyday, Luce.' 

"Spetto, are you in there, are you ok I heard something break, why are you working in the dark. Wait Spetto why are you out here at this time of night shouldn't you be getting rest, Spetto, s-spet-to" She said cautiously and then she sounded a bit scared and unsure.
