When the morning sun came in through the window, Lucy was lifted by the curse. for now. She stretched, yawned, and then looked over at Nats-NATSU?!?!
  Lucy covered her mouth in a gasp.
'D-did we-'
  She looked down at herself. Her body still had the same clothes that she had on yesterday. And so did he. She sighed and got up.
'I wonder if he stayed to keep an eye on me..' she smiled and looked down at him. She got up and moved around him, not wanting to wake him up. She took a shower, got dressed, and made some food. She heard a yawn after a while, and Natsu entered the room soon after.

"Good morning."Lucy said, getting some food onto two plates.
"Oh, G-Good morning." Natsu stammered.

    She placed food in two spots at the table, and gestures for him to sit. He obeyed, and they started to eat.
"So...Luce, We need to talk.." Natsu started, "about the potion.."
Lucy swallowed what was in her mouth, then placed her fork down.
  "Yes..we do need to talk about it.."she agreed.

"Well..do you remember anything after it takes affect? Like, anything?" He asked.
She shook her head, "some bits and pieces, but nothing too big.."
"Okay...we should bring up the spell to Levy..maybe she's heard of it and knows another way?"

"Wait, you already know how to break it? Why can't you?" She asked.
He chuckled nervously, "it's. u-uh, complicated..." he sighed
Lucy nodded, and the two returned to eating their food. Later, Natsu and Lucy walked to the guild. They got inside, and Happy flew up to Natsu.
"How was your sleepover?" He smirked, "I flew around looking for you, and then noticed you in Lucy's bed."
"Shut it!" Lucy threatened, and Happy flew away scared.

She sighed as Natsu laughed at this, but he stopped when she glared at him. They continued to walk over to Levy.
"Hey Lev..we have a question for you.."Lucy started.
"Sure, what's the question?" She asked.
They explained about the job and the witch, and what happened the last two nights.

"Well, I wasn't expecting that one...so you need a cure?" Levy asked.
"Yes.." Lucy nodded.
"Alright, I'll go look in the library and see what I can find. But, could you please get my drink from Mira?" She asked Lucy.
Lucy nodded and stood up, going over to the bar. Levy leaned over the table near Natsu, smirking heavily.
"Okay, so I'm just dying to find out what the cure is. Tellll meeee!" She chuckled.
He sighed, "Well...the witch told me t-that..she needs an orgasm? I don't know what fucked up spell does that..."

"Ah, that'd make sense with how the spell controls her...you're right, that spell is indeed a strange one...I'm gonna go in the library now and search." She gave a thumbs up and stood, walking past Lucy and grabbing the drink from her. Lucy then walked over to me.
"I hope she finds something quick...this is embarrassing..." she sighed, laying her head on the table. Natsu rubbed her back.
"I bet she'll find something.." He said, trying to comfort her.

'Maybe I should go find that witch...'

A few hours passed, and it was early afternoon. Natsu entered the building where he had brought the witch to. It was similar to a prison; where the people thought of wrong doings go. Most of them had bounty's on their head and were waiting for their punishment. Natsu walked up to the front and asked where the witch he brought in was. The lady told him that the witch was down the hall to the left, so he headed off that way.

As he walked up to the room, he noticed her sitting in a magic-proof cell, close to to the hallway.
"Ah, and what now?" The witch asked
"You need to tell me another way to break the spell.." Natsu said
The witch looked over at him and gave a cackle, "Ha! And what would I tell you? You already locked me up."
Natsu pulled at her through the bars, hitting her against the bars hard.
"Tell. Me." He spat.

  She sighed and pulled away.
"Fine. Lemôir's library. It's in Magnolia, so it's not like you'll have to walk far."
Natsu squinted at her and turned, exiting the building.

  Back at the guild, Lucy sat down with Levy in the library, looking through some books.
"I still can't find anything...there's tons of different spells, even romance spells, but nothing like this.." Levy sighed.
Lucy looked down, "I wish Natsu would just tell me the other way to break the spell...he seams so hesitant to though.."

Levy chuckled nervously, "hehe, trust me, he has his reasons.."
Lucy tilted her head at her, "did he tell you?"
Levy nodded slowly, "Yeah...he told me so that I could try to find the spell..but it's not in any of these books.."
"Well, tell me. Maybe I can figure out how to break it."
"Lu..no offense, but I don't think Natsu wants you to know.."
Lucy sighed and sat back in her chair, "am I not strong enough or something? I can do it! I just need to know-.."

"Lu, I think he doesn't want you to know 'cause he wants to find a different cure for you...the one he told me..he doesn't want you to have to do it.."
"Levvvvv, commmeee onnnnnnn" Lucy groaned.
Levy rolled her eyes, "fine. The cure Natsu found was.." she stood up and went next to Lucy, whispering something in her ear. When she pulled away, it looked like Lucy was slapped in the face. Her cheeks where a bright red and she looked up at Levy hysterically
"W-WHAT?!?" She asked, panicked.
"See? I told you." Levy sighed.
"W-what kind of spell does this?! First, it makes me hit on people! Then, it makes me sleep with them?! The hell!!" Lucy stood up, startled at what she had found out.
'And Natsu doesn't want me to have to? Why?'

"D-Did Natsu say anything else about it?" Lucy asked.
Levy smirked, "personally, I think he's just jealous of the thought of you sleeping with some random person." She chuckled.

"H-how could you think that??" Lucy stuttered.
"Well, maybe because it's been two nights since it happened, and Natsu was at your house both those nights."
"S-So?"
"So, he's keeping an eye on you!" Levy winked.

"Don't be ridiculous..." Lucy sighed, "he's just.. concerned.."
"Does a concerned man sleep a half an inch away from you and cuddles you?" Levy chuckled.
"H-how do you know about that?!" Lucy thinks of last night.
"Happy told me."
    'I'm going to kill that cat.."Lucy sweat-dropped
"W-well..h-how about we keep looking through these books?.." she chuckled nervously.

    Levy rolled her eyes and chuckled, picking up another book to scroll through.
