Learning to love him (NaLu)

Ch 15

(Lucy POV)

He closed his eyes as I began to run my fingers through his soft pink hair. I leaned on the tree behind me and watched the orange sunset slowly fade away until the bright moon and stars lit the sky. I looked up trying to find my favourite constellations for a few minutes until I felt Natsu sit up, making the spot where his head was on my thighs cold.

"We should get going." He said yawning and stretching his arms.

"Ok." I replied standing up and dusting off the dirt and grass from the ground that stuck to my pants.

————————-

When we got back, it was around 10:00. I followed Natsu up the stairs to our apartment. He took out his set of keys from his pocket and unlocked the door, holding it open for me.

I hung up my jacket on the hooks next to the door and took off my shoes placing them on the mat. Natsu did the same.

I went over to the bathroom and turned on the tap for warm water in the tub. I then opened the cupboard under the sink and took out some of my favourite bubble bath that I got for one of my wedding gifts. It smelled of strawberries and vanilla, my favourite scent. In the bottle the soap was pink in colour, when I poured some in the bath while the water was running, it bubbled up.

I stripped of my clothes and put my hair in a messy bun so it wouldn't get wet. I hopped in the bath taking in the warmth of the water. I closed my eyes and leaned back on the tub, the bubbles covering my body.

Suddenly, I feel a swoosh of cold air come in to the bathroom. I open my eyes and see Natsu standing at the door frame with the door wide open.

O///O

Thank Mavis he can't see me from the wall of the tub, he wouldn't be able to anyways because of the bubbles covering my body. I must have not closed the door properly...

He just stood there shocked looking me in the eyes. I looked shocked on the outside and blushed a deep cherry red, but on the inside, it for some reason didn't bother me that much. Is it because we're married? I don't think that's how it works. What even!? T^T I don't know what's happening to me!

"U-um, is there something you need?" I asked, my blush slowly fading away.

"I-uh s-sorry! I didn't know you were in here. I was just gonna take a shower." He said sheepishly. Aww...wait what!?

"O-oh uh.." I honestly didn't know how to reply to that. Ugh, I don't want to get out of the tub, I just stepped in! This is stupid!

"I'm guessing you don't want to leave, since you most likely just got in." He started. How'd he know!? Is he a mind reader? Is that a thing?! "Would you mind if I went in quickly? I'm leaving for Grays party at his place."

And my blush is returning...he just asked if he could shower in the same room as I'm in, while I'm naked in a tub! What the f*ck!!?!

My mind said no, but my stupid idiotic mouth of mine said, "U-uh, well if you want but, BUT! You must cover yourself and DO NOT I repeat DO NOT look at me, and I will not look at you." Why the hell did I just say that?!

"Ok." He said like it was no big deal. Ahhh!!!! What's wrong with me!? Did I fall and hit my head?

I sunk deep into the water so my mouth was under the water and bubbles but my nose wasn't. My knees were bent up making my thighs exposed. I was blushing like a freaking maniac as I heard Natsu remove his clothes and throw them into the laundry basket and step into the shower which was running hot water. He shut the curtains and began washing himself I'm guessing. Thank goodness the bath and the shower are separate.
