you'll be looking forward to the morning

[eatsfire]

Who: Natsu and Lucy
What: A date of sorts
When: Day 4 of the event
Where: Everywhere! It's an adventure
Rating: PG-13? I guess..?

[Natsu never likes waking up early - and his definition of early is any time before midday, basically - but today he manages to get himself to. The reason is simple; he wants to take Lucy out for an adventure walk, and to do that he has to get everything ready first!

Being careful not to wake his still sleeping fiancee, he creeps around gathering a few things into a bag. When he's finished and thinks everything is all set, he promptly jumps onto the bed, probably jostling the one lying there.

Shaking her gently by the shoulder, he coaxes] Lucy, wake up! Come on, come on.

[ Lucy laughs at the imitation of her voice. Natsu that sounds so weird coming from you like that. Though she eeps at the second swing, this time it hits her pillow enough that she loses her grip. She quickly grabs it again with her left hand, trying to pull it back towards her before darting a glance at Natsu. Crapcrapcrap. Uh. Um! Uh! OH! A flicker of determination flashes in her eyes briefly. ]

Oh...!

[ She casts an alarmed glance over to her weapon, where her left hand is desperately trying to keep a grip on the pillow. Then back to the "enemy". Darnit. She's going to have to use That(tm) after all.

... well that's okay, since it's him. With her very best pout, she tilts her head. ]

Neeeeee, you aren't really going to hit me with that pillow, are you...

[ And she leans up just a bit, using her free hand to grab hold of his shirt to tug him close. ... Just enough so that she can skim past his lips without actually touching, in order to purrrrr at his ear softly. ]

Naaaaaaaatsuu~?

[ Lucy you are such a cheater. This is a dirty. Dirty trick. She knows this is a dirty trick. She doesn't care. It may not even work! (God knows her Secret Weapon: Sex Appeal is more miss than hit, half the time /sob) But she watches his face for any reaction, her pillow hand tightening on the makeshift weapon. The minute he drops his guard - if he drops his guard, she's attacking! ]


[ooc: Just. This ]

[Victory is within his grasp! He can practically taste it when she loses her grip on the pillow. He's going to win!

However, any thoughts regarding that quickly vanish when Lucy... when she... Oh. Needless to say, Natsu's mind goes very blank for a few precious moments.

Air catches in his throat quite audibly and his face feels on fire. Yeah, he often teases and makes fun of her failing at sex appeal, but really it... has an effect.

There's a slight whine to his voice as he tries to reply]

Lucy... that isn't fair. We're supposed to be fighting! [So no doing that and making yourself look even more ravishing okay!!!]

How's the brain NOW, sweetie >:D

[celestial_wizard]

[ WELL. She can't help it if she's cute. It's just another weapon in her arsenal! Looking very pleased with herself by that reaction, chalking it up to revenge for when he left her breathless earlier, Lucy giggles, not looking the least bit sorry. ]

We are fighting, Natsu. [ Did she really have to purr his name? It probably doesn't help any. ]

I'm just using a different kind of weapon! [ Her grin widens a bit mischievously as her hand drags her pillow closer, though she leans in to keep his attention. Don't notice her pillow, don't notice her pillow! ]

After all, all's fair - [ She leans in closer, almost nose to nose - gasp she's going to kiss him again, in the middle of war? WHAT A CHEATER. ] in love - [ She exhales slightly. And... may not be able to hide the sudden telltale-wicked grin as she makes a quick movement to yank that pillow up and -thwap- him good over the head. ]

And pillow war!

BROKEN, FOREVER BROKEN

[eatsfire]

[She certainly is using a weapon, one that's highly effective right now under current circumstances and positions. It's one Natsu has yet to ever really be able to understand or counter.

Oh, she definitely keeps all of his attention, eyes half-lidded now as she leans closer. He's also hardly following what she's saying. That grin sets off alarm bells but it's too late!

With a yelp, he finds himself falling sideways onto the bed, next to Lucy. He really should have been expecting a trick but he couldn't help that she's so distracting!]

That was mean, Lucy! [He crosses his arms and lies on his back a moment, but when he turns his head to look at her, a slow grin appears on his still flushed face] You've gotten trickier to beat!

Awww bb; patches it up <3

[celestial_wizard]

[ She knows it was a dirty trick, but in her position it was totally fair! Also, she got a little revenge. It was worth it. ... though admittedly it had been very VERY tempting to call a ceasefire for... um. Yeah. Reasons. As it was, she's laughing when Natsu falls back, shifting in order to slide her arms around him and rest her chin on his chest, smug. ]

Aw, I guess it was a -little- unfair. [ Oh come on Lucy, you broke the poor boy's BRAIN. That goes beyond a little unfair. ]

Does that mean you surrender? [ Holy crap did she win? ]

thank you my darlingggg <3

[eatsfire]

[Oh how he wishes that they'd called a ceasefire, but even then... His competitive nature may have won out. Maybe. Probably not as far as hormones were concerned whoops.

The laugh makes the grin widen, and with ease he does the same; holding her to him securely]

Mnn. It was.

[Surrender? Him? Though clearly Lucy had had the advantage so hrmmmm]

No way! This is... This is...

[Aha!] A tie!

Anytime my love ;D

[celestial_wizard]

[ Lucy giggles a bit at the agreement, and with his arms around her, she snuggles up close with a contented sigh, happy. ]

A tie huh? [ Hmph, she'd figure. SO competitive, Natsu! She grins. ]

That's fair, I suppose. At least we didn't destroy the pillows this time.

[ Feathers. EVERYWHERE. Another laugh bubbles up at the thought, but for the most part, she's content to snuggle right there for the rest of the day. ]

<33

[eatsfire]

[He only grins, but is relieved that she agrees to the tie. His competitive nature is hard to ignore, you know]

Good thing we didn't or we'd have to pay for them. [And that isn't something that would be all that fun.

Happy to relax and rest with Lucy curled at his side, Natsu smiles and leans his head against hers, eyes closing. Keeping her all to himself for the day had certainly been fun. He couldn't wait for tomorrow]
