Lost. Nastu x reader fairy tail

Twenty five

-y/n pov-

The scene in front of me was quite unbelievable, shocking really. My mind was sent reeling, unable to comprehend or process what was happening. I looked away, then looked back to see if everyone was still here and they were.
They're here. They're real. They're all okay. My eyes dart from person to person, Lucy, Wendy, Cana, Gray, Erza, Gajeel, Carla.
'Wait, where's Natsu?' I think to myself milliseconds before seeing the mop of pink hair bounce behind person to person then stop abruptly, his onyx eyes starring straight at me.
The tears that were welling up poor like a burst dam, spilling down my face. I feel the muscles in my chin trembling like a small child's as I try to hold my tears back. I really haven't changed.

His perfect smile, the only thing I see before I feel his warmth around me.
Before I know it my hands are clutching at his jacket. He held me in silence, rocking me ever so slowly as my tears soaked his chest. His warm breath on the top of my head feels funny but I wouldn't change it for the world.

'It was real after all, I wasn't dreaming'

"You're home" I croak still in disbelief.
"We are all home" his voice soothes me.
It's true. Every single one of them are home safe.

"Quit hogging her! I missed her too" gray says in a joking voice.
Natsu pulls away and I see all of team Natsu surrounding me smiling.
I love my family.
After seven long years they're finally home.

The rest of the afternoon was spent crying, catching up and of course master throwing a party simply because he can.

"So what's been happening y/n, I heard you've made quite the name for yourself" asks gray as he rests his elbow in my head.
"I suppose you could say that. I haven't really done much besides train a bunch and do a few long missions" I say smiling up at him.
"modest as ever I see, you're still tough for someone so short" he teases. I was about to retort when he spoke catching me off guard.
I managed to get stuck in the same time spell you guys did so I am 20 now I guess, it feels weird being the same age as you old man" I joke and nudge him slightly. He chuckles in response. His laugh was like ripples in a still pond after a rock has been dropped in. It radiated through the packed hall, joining with the commotion of everyone else's conversations. God it feels good to have everyone home.
"Yeah Kinana told us, and I'm not old!" He growls back.

By the time night fell almost everyone was passed out. I sat by the bar, accompanied by a sleepy happy, passed out gray, and a very very very drunk Erza.
I remain in complete disbelief that everyone is still here, I would still be lost in my own thoughts if gray and I didn't find it funny watching Erza try and sit still. She wobble's around like a bobble head, falls over, climbs back up, sits down heavily in the chair, then almost falls off it again, repeating this cycle until she gave up and slept on the floor.

I sigh heavily once again, gray and I being the only two awake.

"That sounds like you have a lot going on up in your thinking box" he slurs his words. The scent of cheap booze oozing from him as he speaks.
"Far too much" I reply simply.
"Care to explain?" He says calmly.
"I think we need to get you to a bed seeing as no one else is using them" i say cheerfully, brushing off what he said.
"Sounds good to me" he yawns.
I giggle softly, thankful to have everyone back.

"Alright stand up" I say and help him walk to the infirmary, then help manoeuvre him into the bed. I can thank his stripping habit for making the job a bit easier.

"Thank you" he mumbles before almost immediately beginning to snore. I smile and tuck him into bed, then place his pre-remover clothes neatly on the end of the bed for him in the morning.

Seeing as there is 8 beds in the room I might as well try and help some people get a good night sleep.
First I see Wendy cuddled up to Carla, an easy target as she is so light. I pick her up gently and walk her to a bed, tucking her in then going back for Carla as well.

The next closest person to me was Erza, who was curled up like a pretzel after her failed attempt to sit down. 

I slid an arm around her waist and somehow lift her up, struggling slightly with the position but managing to carry her I walk her over and alike the others tuck her in. Next was levy with pantherlily, followed by Cana, then Bisca, Alzack and Asuka all squished into the one bed however they quickly cuddled up to one another and got comfortable in their own. Lucy was next accompanying happy and finally was mirajane. Everyone else were either too heavy, wrapped around someone or something else or simply too difficult to move. On my way back to the infirmary to double check everyone was okay I smiled down at Natsu who was snoring as loud as ever on the floor. I giggled at his expression and sat down next to him for a moment. Sighing heavily once again I softly ruffle his hair.
'He looks so silly' I think to myself.

Content that I had helped at least a few people I decided it was my time to go home now and with a final decision to put a blanket over the sleeping master on top of the bar, and place a few spare pillows under the necks/heads of whoever I could move enough to put one under, i turned out the main lights, took one final look at everyone and walked out the door.

I trudged along the pavement at a slow pace, my mind focused on the gentle footsteps that seemed to echo throughout the desolate street. As it was 2 in the morning there was not many other people awake let alone walking around magnolia. This city is beautiful and I love everyone here.
