Gray's breath was steady and welcoming to the cosmic mages ears. She had woken up before the sun had risen and was staring at the man that crawled into bed next to her. She had time to gather that she was in the guild infirmary and that Gray had stayed with her through the night. Her hand was intertwined in his, she couldn't let go if she wanted to, because he had a death grip on it. Well, a gentle death grip, her hand was safe for sure. Stroking his hair she smiled down at her sexy man. If course, he had removed his clothes in his sleep and was in his boxers, but she didn't mind at all. Just sitting there and admiring him was just fine by her.

A light object was sweeping across his hair, which he didn't mind at all. In fact, it put a smile on his face. He snuggled closer to the figure next him and relished in it's warmth. A soft sound played on his ear and he smiled even more at the pleasant sound. Wait . . . . that sounded like a giggle. He thought in his half asleep state, realising only one person could be giggling at him right now. His sleepy eyes shot open and saw two galactic orbs staring down at him. A soft smile was giggling in his face and a hand was still tangled with his.

"LUCY!"

"Morning my love." Lucy said in a soft voice, still a little physically exhausted from everything. "I guess we completed the mission?"

"Yes, we saved the islands. Everything was alright, besides you. Lulu, my love, I was so scared. you almost didn't make it . . . sob. . . .  I dont know wh-wh-what . . . sob. . . . I would have done if you di-di-didn't. . . . . SOB......" Gray was cut off with a hug from his love. He cried into her chest, letting out all the worry he had bottled up. When he was done, she lifted his head up, wiped his tears away, and looked him in the eyes.

"It would take me more than that to leave your side. I love you with every fiber of my being, Mr. Gray Fullbuster. I am never going anywhere." She pulled him in and kissed him passionately. Things would have gone a little further had Polyuscia not knocked on the door.

Gray put on his clothes and sat back down next to a giggling Lucy, just in time for the door to open and Polyusica to walk in. She stared at the two and saw the slightly swollen lips. She smiled at herself knowing what she just broke apart.

"Well, now that you know she is alright, can you please give us some privacy Gray? You can tell the people that showed up early, to check on Lucy, that she is awake. Once I am done talking with her, I will let everyone see her. " Reluctantly Gray obeyed and went to give his friends the good news. He closed the door behind him, Polyusica waiting until she sensed he was gone looked at Lucy.

"Um, is everything okay Polyusica? Oh, and thank you for all the help healing me."

"It is no problem my child. It was difficult, but for an unexpected reason. Wendy is the only one that knows what I do. Before I tell you what it is, let me do a check on your body first."

"Ok, sure."

Sitting next to Lucy's bed the old woman leaned over and used her magic to do a health check. (A/N: In this version as you can tell, she does magic. Just bc I wanted her too.). I a smile broke across her face and she pulled back her hands. Looking at Lucy, she grabbed her hand. This made Lucy confused and serious to say the least.

"Lucy, I have something major to tell you."

"O-okay . . . . ?"

"The reason healing you was so hard, wasn't just because you were poisoned, which you were by the way, but also . . . . . . . . . . sigh  . . . . . . .Lucy. You are pregnant."

"WHAT!?" Lucy thought about it, all the times her stomach had randomly gotten sick and her feeling a little extra tired lately. "Really?"

"Yes my child."
