Secrets

Chappie 21

"Zeref!"

Natsu shouted. She handed the two babies she had in her arms to Rogue and ran to Zeref; jumping into his arms. The dragon slayers all laughed and the guild looked over in surprise, but laughed soon after. He held her in his arms and laughed heartily (Like one of those old dad laughs).

"Hey, Natsu."

"You're finally home!" She exclaimed as he set her down.

"Yeah, I am!"

He smiled as she tugged him over; taking the two kids back from Rogue.

"Sorry, Rogue, that was very sudden." She said sheepishly. He waved her off and traded Gray spots. "You remember everyone, right?" He nodded and took note of the three kids they held; two younger ones running over to them.

"Um, why are there 5 kids now?"

She laughed at his confused face.

"Because I was pregnant a few weeks before the wedding."

"You were?"

"Yeah, that's why I had to get the dress, later on in the day, remember?" She said, handing Yuki to Sting, who gratefully accepted her.

"Yes, I remember now, but I wasn't expecting three. That must've hurt."

She playfully punched his arm and he laughed.

"I believe I felt a fly on my arm."

"Shut your face!"

They all laughed. Raijin tugged on Natsu's pant leg, making her look down and smile.

"Hey, Rai, what's up?"

He smiled with the blush that weighed heavily on his face.

"A-Aunty Natsu, can we go play, maybe?"

She smiled and ruffled his hair.

"In a little bit, okay? I promise."

He nodded and giggled. Sayuri grabbed his and Seiichi's hands, running back to the window.

"Come on, let's finish drawing our happy little trees!"

Gray was currently dying of laughter from his daughter's Bob Ross statement, along with most of the older guild members, as Natsu shook her head and sighed heavily.

"She's not allowed to watch T.V. with you anymore, Gray."

He wiped the tears from his eyes and took a deep breath.

"You can't tell me you don't wanna hear more of that, Nat!"

"I can and I did." She stated with a laugh.

"I'm not gonna let her run around painting 'happy little trees'."

Zeref laughed with his head down.

"Wow, this is the weirdest argument you guys have had, yet." Erza laughed as she laid a hand on Natsu's and Gray's shoulders. Natsu sighed again as Gray continued to laugh. Erza shook her head and laughed too.

"It's not funny, don't encourage him, Erza!"

They all kept laughing, along with Natsu yelling at everyone to stop; fueling their laughter.

Okay, this one's short, I know, but that's part of my plan! It's like a filler chapter while I write the next one! Anyways, I hope you like this chapter, and I'll be back soon with the next one. See ya!
