Secrets

Chappie 10

When they had gone home, later that day, they had no idea what they were in for... And they still don't.

"Wendy! Seiichi! Sayuri! Carla and Happy! Come down for dinner!"

Gray shouted as Natsu set down the remaining dishes. The three raced down and sat at the table. Well, Wendy and Natsu helped the littles into their boosters, and then sat down. After dinner, the three sat in the living room watching T.V and the adults cleaned up in the kitchen.

"Natsu?"

"Hmm?"

"What do you plan on doing for the time being?"

"Whaddya mean?"

"I mean what do you have planned, if anything?"

"Well, would you help me with that tonight?"

He chuckled and placed his head on her shoulder as she dried the rest of the dishes he washed.

"I guess I can help some more."

"Oh, I have another question."

"What's that?"

"Do you think the twins would like a younger sibling?"

"Probably. Why?" He asked suspiciously.

"Well, whether or not they want one, they're getting one."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean I'm pregnant, ya ice block!"

He stood still with his eyes wide.

"...What?"

She laughed and rested her hands on her stomach.

"We're having a third!"

His mouth slowly rose into a grin and he ran & picked her up, then he set her down and face buried in the crook of her neck.

"Are you sure?"

She giggled.

"I'm sure."

"Ooooh, this is great! We get to do it again!"

"Do what?"

"Everything!"

Sayuri walked into the kitchen to see her parents hugging, with great big smiles.

'I wanna hug with Mama and Daddy.'

She hugged their legs and looked up at them.

"Why are we hugging?"

Natsu laughed and swooped her into her arms.

"We'll tell you tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay! But we're going to hug some more, just 'cuz."

They laughed and did as they were commanded.

*-Time skip: 8:00 p.m.-*

The younger kids were asleep; leaving Natsu, Gray, and Wendy on the couch to watch some movies. But, soon enough, Wendy started to fall asleep. Gray carried her to her room, and now they and the Exceeds were the only ones on the couch.

"Gray?"

"Hmm?"

"Nothing, just making sure you were awake."

Carla and Happy looked over and smiled as they watched the couple; Happy secretly wishing that he was Gray, and Natsu was Carla. Natsu had her head resting on Gray's shoulder, but looking toward the T.V., since he had placed her in his lap a while ago, while Gray rested his head on hers and one arm wrapped up behind her back; the other resting on her stomach. They had ended up telling the Exceeds a little after the younglings had gone to bed, and told Happy he could blurt it out tomorrow, so he could get the conversation started in a non-awkward way...

At least, not awkward for them.

"Natsu?"

"Yes?"

"Can we find out how many there are this time?"

She giggled.

"Yes, I promise. But don't blame it on me if it's wrong again."

"I won't... Can we find out the sex when they're big enough?"

"Nope."

"Why not?"

"Because, it's supposed to be a surprise."

"We'll just wait for the fourth."

"No one said I wanted to do it again after this!"

He chuckled and continued the movie in silence. But, then they heard footsteps down the stairs, followed by a light thumping sound. Natsu got off of Gray and went to the bottom as she muttered what sounded like 'Sayuri'. Next thing you know, Natsu's sitting next to Gray with who in her lap? You guessed it, it was Sayuri and her teddy bear. Gray looked at her and wiped the tears from her face.

"Why're you crying?"

"I had a scary dream."

"What about?"

He talked in a whisper so that the other three could watch the movie.

"You and Mama were taken away by giant X birds."

Gray looked up to Natsu and saw her lips quivering in her struggle not to laugh. Looking over to the Exceeds, Happy was covering his mouth with his paws, and Carla smiled and pointed to the girl and he saw her looking up at him.

"What are X birds, baby?"

"They're big birds in the shape of X's and they took you and Mama and Auntie Wendy and Happy and Carla, too!"

He picked her up and took her into his and Natsu's room and laid her on his bed; along with her stuffed bear.

"Don't worry, okay? I'm gonna turn on cartoons in here for you, and we'll come up here when the movie's over. I'll even turn on the lamp and the bathroom light, in case you need to go, okay?"

"Okay. But I need to show you something first, Daddy."

"Okay, let's see it."

She took a deep breath and when she exhaled, her breath was like a puff of frost. Thankfully, there was nothing that frosted over.

"When... When did you learn to that?!"

"Yesterday. Look at this, too!"

She held up her index finger, and a tiny flame appeared.

'What the f-'

"Gray, where are you?"

"I'm in our room. Come here, hurry!"

He heard her footsteps hurriedly, yet quietly padding up the stairs and she appeared in the doorway.

"What's wrong?" She asked as Happy and Carla stood with her.

"Sayuri, show Mama what you can do."

"Okay!"

She let out an exhalation of frost again.

"Aww, man, Seiichi better have fire magic, then."

"You don't have to worry about that, Natsu. Show her the other one."

"K!"

Then she showed Natsu the flame.

"What the- How?!"

-End

Okay, so that dream the Sayuri had? That was a dream that I had when I was, like, 5 or 6 and I thought 'Hey, this'll get a few people to laugh'. Anyways, don't be mad at me if I'm not updating for a little while, because my birthday's in 2 days (Yayz, 14!), and I'll be out with my family and my friend. Enough of my rambling. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter, I'll update until I can't!
