Together Through Thick and Thin

Chapter 13

Lucy's POV

I finally changed into a pink tank top with a black hoodie and long skinny jeans in white. Beautiful, long blonde hair in a side pony and chocolate brown eyes that were so pretty, curvy and sexy were all good qualities. But the best was the height difference with Juvia. If you weren't paying much attention, we're the same height. But on closer inspection I'm taller, making it very easy to ease her. Not that I would, I'm not mean. Maybe having kids has made me more like a mom... Wait I am a mom. I cringe at my stupidity for a moment before putting on my simple pink flats. I quickly grabbed my bracelet from the vanity. My navy blue bracelet with white writing imprinted in it. Even reading it made my heart flutter, soar and well twists into a billion nots at what happened earlier when she scolded me. I sighed almost dramatically and went to check in the kids room. Me and Juvia had decided to move when they kids were going to high school, since the royal family decided to ramp up education and advance society. They'd even promised us a luxury house since the block we're in now is going to get turned into a retail district or a housing complex. I unlocked the door and saw them engaged in a dust fight.

Half naked....

Da fa-

I grab them both and in lighting fast speed change them into their clothes - with much complaint and shrill yelling! What I wouldn't give to duck tape their mouths close forever!
Nashi took less fighting since she was too hungry - into a black and gold shirt with a red skirt. Her legs were covered in tights and ended in black and gold shoes. I haven't found any good new shorts for her so she'll probably destroy these old clothes today. I packed a spare for each because I'm not a monster. Luke was trying to eat something so I ate it instead. He cried and I dressed him while he did. He was in his normal clothes - except he looked a little more well kept. Most boy clothes were ugly.

Sighing, I took my rowdy kids down the stairs and instantly the two pairs of kids started talking and me and Juvia headed to get the picnic things while they waited patiently, lord I hope, by the door. We gathered the things in some silence. The occasionally small talk. "Sorry about earlier." I mutter softly, "But she was testing me, deserved it in my eyes!" I snort loudly and Juvia looks at me for a moment. Before bursting out into a fit of giggles. I thought I'd be offended but I just laughed along with her.

"Let's go, before your apology leaves me a mess of laughter."
