Uncharted Territory (Nalu)

🇯🇵9

Natsu sighed as he sat in the airport chair, his elbows leaning against his knees while he bent forward, waiting for Lisanna to come out and greet him.

Today was the day Lisanna was coming from Edolas to visit him and the others. Sure, he was happy but all he could think of was Lucy. How would she react if she saw her? Lucy already knew she was coming and she knew Natsu had left to the airport to come get Lisanna and when he announced that, she looked a bit hurt. He should have brought her with him but damn her for having classes when he didn't.

He sighed again and looked at his wrist watch, looking back at the doors.

When will she be arriving? She should have been here eight minutes ago.

Natsu looked around the place as people hugged, talked, walked, ate, and sat around waiting for people. He hasn't been to the airport in a while and it was nice.

He took his phone out and started to tap on random buttons, missing Lucy. He was supposed to take her ice-skating today but because Lisanna was coming today, he couldn't. He wonders if she is alright.

He decided to text her.

As he started to tap his phone, writing something to text Lucy, he heard somebody call his name. He quickly pressed sent and looked up, seeing a white-haired woman running towards him with a wide smile and waving her right hand in the air. He shoved his phone into his pocket and stood up, a grin on his face.

"Lisanna!"

"Naaaatsu!" She jumped into his arms, Natsu wrapping his arms around her to give her a hug. She pulled away and looked at him with her beautiful blue eyes, smiling widely. "Oh Natsu, look how much you've grown! You look like a man now."

"I always looked like a man, Lisanna!"

"I mean more mature, look at you!" Lisanna pulled back, looking at him from top to bottom. Natsu grinned bashfully, taking in her sight. "You're not so bad yourself."

"You know us woman, changing every second." Lisanna giggled, waving her right hand at his direction while holding her cheek. Natsu immediately thought of Lucy as he said that. Does Lucy change also? Does he just not see it because he's with her all the time?

"Come on, Natsu! Let's go get my bag!" Lisanna yanked on Natsu's arm, making him snap out of his thoughts. "O—oh yeah!" Natsu said as he stumbled along behind her.

As Lisanna dragged him to go find her bag, his phone rang and he pulled his phone out, reading the text.

Soon, a smile appeared on his lips.

Lucy sighed as she tapped her fingers on her desk, sitting all the way in the back as the professor talked about useless crap that she already knew about. She tried paying attention but she just ended up having her eyes catching the clock most of the time. Why didn't time move faster? She didn't want to be in class, she rather be with Natsu laughing and talking.

He just had to leave to the airport and leave her all alone. She hopes Lisanna wouldn't be that bad.

As she watched as time ticked down, her mind started to wonder. With her pencil in her hand while her notebook in front of her, scribbled with notes and doodles in the corners, she was dozing off.

She was just at the point of falling asleep until she felt a vibration in her bag, making her reach for her phone and unlock her phone.

She read the text and immediately a small smile came to her lips.

"Hey baby, how's class? I miss you."

Lucy never understood why Natsu acted as if she was his. Maybe it was because he liked her but Lucy never let his small remarks and nicknames bother her. She actually liked them and she played along with him most of the time.
