Learning to love him (NaLu)

Ch 18

(Lucy POV)

I was currently in my living room with Levy watching a movie while eating popcorn at 10:00. We were sitting beside each other on the couch under a dark blue blanket.

Natsu was out somewhere with the guys and Erza's cousin was having a birthday party so she had to attend. Mira was babysitting again, so it was just Levy and I.

"Hey, do you want some water?" I asked Levy and hour later.

"Yeah, sure." She replied not adverting her honey brown eyes from the T.V. Screen.

I let out a small giggle and got up heading to the kitchen.

As I was coming back with two glasses of water, I heard the door bust open loudly.

Someone's here...T^T

I quickly tiptoed back to the living room and set the cups down on the small table by the couch.

I looked to Levy seeing that she had a frightened expression on her face.

I signalled her to follow me, we quickly tiptoed to my bedroom. We stepped inside and Levy stood behind me. I grabbed the metal baseball bat and handed it to Levy.

"Stay here, don't make a sound." I whispered to a teary eyed Levy. "And keep the bat with you in case they come in here."

I nervously stepped out of the bedroom and tiptoed to the kitchen where all of the commotion was happening.

I peeked my head slightly through the kitchen doors. I heard someone bent down behind the counter going through some stuff in the cupboard.

Slowly, I crept up to the counter and behind the person who was wearing a black hoodie. I quickly grabbed a metal frying pan and just before I was about to hit what looked to be a male, some one came in.

"Hey Salamander! Did yo-"

He got cut off from the guy-also known as 'Salamander'- standing up quickly and me out of fright hitting his head with the pan.

T^T It all happened so fast I didn't even know what was going on!!

"OW!! What the f*ck!!"

He turned around revealing himself as Natsu.

"N-Natsu?!"

"Luce? Why'd you hit me?!"

"I thought you were a robber or something!! Are you okay!!" I Exclaimed dropping the pan and cupping my hands over my mouth.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!" We turned our heads to see Gajeel laughing his head off at us.

Jerk.

I turned back to Natsu, "I-I'm sorry, are you okay?" I asked with a sorry look on my face.

"Yeah I'm fine, don't worry." He replied pulling me into a hug with one arm because the other was holding the spot I smacked him on.

I didn't hug back because of all the guilt I had inside of me. I mean, how was I supposed to know? He didn't say 'I'm home' or 'It's Natsu' to indicate to me that it was him and now he's probably got a huge bruise!

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Gajeel was still dying of laughter while clutching his stomach.

"Lu? What's going on?" Asked Levy walking in.

I got out of Natsu's grip and went over to Levy who was standing in the doorway. I grabbed her hand and brought her back into the living room to continue our movie. We sat on the couch cuddling next to each other under the blanket.
