The Exceeds fly us home after. My dress billows in the wind as we soar. I feel like a princess.
Once we are at the door of my, our, apartment Happy tackles Natsu with a giant hug.
"I'm so happy for you Natsu and Lushee. But Natsu, if you're moving in Lucy's home. Where will I go?"
"With us silly," I poke the blue cat in the belly.
"Yeah Buddy, we're a family. You know that," Natsu rubs his head.
"But Lucy's so big! How are we all gonna fit in the same bed?"
"Hey! I'm not that big!" I scold him.
"Does this mean I get my own bed like Lily did when Gajeel and Levy got married?"
"Sure, Happy, you can have your own bed right next to us if you want," Natsu tells him.
"Well, Lily and Charle are waiting for me outside. We still have more Exceeds to find. After they came back from Edolas. Not everybody stayed together. So not only do we have to find the Earthland ones, we still have some Edolas Exceeds to track down."
"Well, good luck Happy. And if you guys change your mind about having us help, don't be afraid to ask," Natsu tells him.
He sprouts his wings and just before he takes off Natsu shouts, "be safe Happy!"
"Aye Sir!" He says flying off with his friends.
I hike up my dress to walk through the door when Natsu swoops me off my feet and walks us through the threshold.
Once we are inside, he safely deposits me back on the ground.
"I read somewhere that you're supposed to do that when you get married," he says scratching his head awkwardly.
"Wait, you read?" I joke.
"Yeah I read!" He says leering at me.
I turn my back to him and say, "help me out of this dress?"
He unzips it, and lightly pushes it off my shoulders. It falls to the ground in a giant heap of white fabric. I feel like I lost a hundred pounds just shedding the dress. After I step out of it, I kick off my heels that left blisters on me. Natsu has loosened his tie and begins unbuttoning the top buttons of his shirt and his vest before kicking off his shoes.
I pick up the dress off the floor and hang it up in the very back of my closet. I put my shoes back in the box and tuck it away. Next I slowly start pulling out off of the pins, and accessories Cancer used to deck out my hair.
I lift my hair up off my shoulders and call for Natsu's help again. His fingers barely touch my skin as he unhooks my necklace that my mother wore on her wedding day.
He places a gentle kiss on my shoulder before he drops the necklace in my hand.
While I have been debriding myself, he's been shucking off his tuxedo so now he's left in nothing but his boxers.
"I need a bath," I tell him. My body aches from the day spent dancing in heels and I'm ready to just soak.
"Me too," he says drawing the water for us.
I slide in the bath and he slides in behind me. I lay back in his arms and just relax until the water is cold.
"Ugh, I didn't even wash myself before the water got cold," I complain.
He chuckles in response. He clenched his fists and the water almost starts to boil.
"Don't melt us Natsu!"
"A thank you would be nice. I was just trying to help ya know," he sits back.
"Thank you," I murmur.
I don't even ask him, he just starts washing my hair and rinsing it. It feels so good to not have to do it. Once he's done he's started soaping up my back. My shoulders. My arms, and lastly my breasts. I put my hands on top of his as he's cupped them perfectly in his palm. I slowly turn to face him and he pulls me in his lap.
I kiss him, slow and needy. It's just us now. My fingers pull on his hair as he deftly slides in. Water splashes out of the sides of the tub but I don't care. To hell with a mess. My husband is making love to me and nothing else matters.
"Lucy," me murmurs in my ear. His skin is so slick but it doesn't stop me from gripping his arms tightly when I come undone. By the time we finished, all of the water has left the tub, and we are still covered in soap.
I draw the water and we finish cleaning ourselves and get out.
I throw about three towels on the floor and they do a decent job at soaking up all the water.
I'm so tired I don't even feel like getting dressed. I just plop into bed and Natsu slides in behind me, tugging me against him.
"Good night Mrs. Dragneel," he whispers before I nod off to sleep.
The perfect end to a perfect day.
