Uncharted Territory (Nalu)

🇯🇵10

It has been day three since Lisanna had come back and Lucy had to admit, she missed Natsu. Natsu was too busy showing Lisanna around and she was too busy with classes and her new job, the two rarely saw each other. Sure, they texted and called time to time but the two of them want to see each other.

Lucy sat in the café in the campus, watching as snow covered the floor and fell from the heavens. It was November now, the weather cold and breezy. Only if Natsu was there, he would have warmed her up.

She shivered and buried herself deeper into her coat and scarf, sighing as the café wasn't as warm as she thought it'll be. Maybe it was because she was in her usual spot, all the way in the back next to the window. It could be, or maybe because Natsu wasn't here.

She decided it was Natsu's fault.

Lucy closed her eyes and sighed, listening to her music that boomed in her ear while she took in the peacefulness. She couldn't do anything like this in a while. Being a waiter at Fairy tail during her free afternoons took a lot of energy out of her. She enjoyed it though, it was fun and she met a lot of new people. They were idiots but they were fun to be around with. A lot like Natsu.

And there she goes thinking about that idiot again. Of course Natsu would ditch Lucy to be with Lisanna just for a week. She was his childhood friend and they had history together. They didn't even see each other for couple years so that was double the time. She just wishes he was with her; she was his best friend for fucks sakes. Or maybe something even more. Do friends touch and kiss each other time to time?

Lucy's lips curled up to a smile as she remembered that elevator kiss that happened days ago. His face was priceless and his lips were warm.

She sighed and tapped her feet to the beat, humming some parts of the song. She continued to hum when she felt something warm against her lips, startling her. She opened her eyes to meet dark onyx eyes, staring at her with so much amusement; it looked like fireworks were sent off inside his eyes.

She pulled back, a horrified look on her face as a blush crept up he cheeks. Noticing he was smirking, not even caring he has just kissed her, Lucy felt like she wanted to slap his smirk right off his face. His upper half of his body was bent forward, his hands shoved into his light jacket as Lisanna stood behind him, giggling to herself.

"Yo, weirdo!"

"Natsu, that's not how you greet a woman."

"That's how I greet my woman," Natsu grinned, giving Lisanna a glance as he looked at Lucy. "Hey baby, haven't see you in a while." He said, Lucy smiling just a bit as she took the earplugs out of her ears, standing up to hug him tight.

"Natsu, I missed you."

Natsu wrapped one arm around her waists as he grinned, feeling her arms around his neck. "Missed you too," He mumbled, rocking her back and forth a bit before pulling away. He noticed that her smile was dull and her eyes had bags under them. "You look like shit."

"Thanks, Natsu, women love hearing that." She said sarcastically, rolling her eyes making him shake his head and chuckle lightly. "I mean, you look really tired and sleepy."

"Haven't got much sleep these days, too busy."

"Did I wake you then?"

"Nah, I was just thinking about something. I see you came to eat or drink something with Lisanna," Lucy leaned to the side to look at the white-haired woman who smiled, waving at her while Lucy returned the gesture. She leaned back and saw that Natsu was smiling at her, looking too friendly. "Should I take you home and put you to sleep?"

"Nah, you have Lisanna to take care of," Lucy yawned, stretching a bit as Natsu raised a brow at her direction, Lisanna looking at Natsu. "Nah, I'm good actually. I pretty much know my ways around, I could go back and you two could spend some time together."
