Natsu's POV
I walked down the streets, a warm figure on my back. It was Lucy, who had fallen asleep in the grass. I held her with my arms as her head was buried in my neck and her arms were slung across my shoulders.
Her breathing was so perfect.
We arrived at the Heartfilia Estate. I carefully opened the front door and entered the house. Lucy stirred in her sleep, but didn't wake up.
"Hello, Mr. Natsu. Is Lady Lucy ok?" Aries, one of the maids, questioned.
"Yep. Just fell asleep. Long day at school, you know."
"Of course. I was to tell you that Master Jude, Madame Aquarius, and Master Loki went away on a business trip. We are to go with them, leaving the house in your care."
"Ok. Nice talking to you."
"Yes. See you."
"Bye."
She skipped out of the door. I carried Lucy upstairs and went to open her door, only to find it was locked.
So, I opened my door and placed Lucy gently only bed. She looked so calm. I decided not to wake her and sat down on the bed, propping myself against a pillow. I feel into a dream filled sleep, satisfied about today.

"Natsu," a familiar voice called to me.
"M-mom?"
A lady with long pink hair and pale black eyes came into my view. She was wearing a silk white dress.
"Mom."
"Hello Natsu. You've grown."
"You're here. Really here."
"No. This is but a dream. But, I came here to discuss something important."
"What is it?"
"Lucy Heartfilia."
"What about her?"
"Natsu, do you love her?"
"Of course."
"I don't mean as a friend. I mean, love love her."
I was taken back. Did I love Lucy? A small blush creeped into my face as I thought about all the fun things we had done these last two days.
"I do. I love her."
"Good. That's what I thought. I must leave. But keep that Lucy girl safe and sound Natsu. Soon, the day will come when you can tell her how you feel."
"Mom. Don't go! Mom! Mom!"

I jolted upright, sweat dripping down my face. Lucy was sitting in front of me, but off towards the side. She looked at me worriedly and leapt forward, hugging me.
"You were freaking out. I didn't know what was wrong with you."
I returned the embrace. Hot streams of liquid came down my face, landing in her hair.
"Don't let go. Please."
"I won't."
We sat there, the night sky shining in on us. I had just confessed to my dead mother that I loved the girl who was hugging me. And it was the truth. I loved everything about her.
And I would make sure that she knew when the right time came.
Little did my brain know, my heart had already decided. So when those words came out of my mouth, I didn't know how to recover.
"I love you, Luce."
Jellal's POV
I carried Erza bridle styled back to her house. She had passed out after crying. The light was escaping.
She was fast asleep in her bed when I strolled away, closing the door behind me. I walked to another room which was owned by Wally.
"Yo. You awake?"
No reply. I turned off the light in his room and left, heading to Simon's room next. The boy was playing video games.
"Time for bed."
"Oh, come on Jellal. I'm not tired."
"Sorry bud. Your sister would kill me if I let you stay up."
"Fine."
He turned the TV off and flopped into bed. I laughed at his attitude and left.
"Jewwal?" I heard a shy voice whisper as I looked down.
"Hey Millianna. You should be asleep."
"Why is Rosie's face all red? Is she sick?"
I lifted the little girl up and carried her to her room. The cat was curled up on the pillow. I sat the toddler down and covered her with the pink unicorn comforter.
"Naw. She's just had a rough day. Now, you get some sleep."
"Okay!"
After checking on Sho, I returned to my room only to find a couple of doofuses waiting for me.
"So, girlfriend had a rough day, huh?" Siegrain taunted.
"She's not my girlfriend."
"I bet you want her to be," Mystogan replied.
"Maybe I do."
"So, ask her out!" Siegrain explained.
"She'll probably punch me."
"Or, she may feel the same way."
"Look, you know I've liked Erza for a long time now. But I know that she won't return the feeling. Now, get out of my room!"
As I stormed away to get something to eat, I didn't expect what was outside that door. A certain girl had heard my whole conversation.
Gray's POV
She was so stunning.
Juvia lay asleep on her bed. Her blue hair was a mess, and her face was still red and puffy.
How could I have missed her beauty?
She was like something from a dream. And she cared about me. I knew that, but tried to push my feelings away.
Until now.
"Juvia, I can't live without you," I said aloud to myself.
"I feel the same way," a small voice replied, making me jump.
Gajeel's POV
We had gone to the library.
And now, after being bored out of my mind, I was at home, watching levy as she fell asleep after reading a book.
Gosh, she was cute. Sitting there, a book pressed against her face. I mean, I know I tease her, but that's cause I don't know how to express my feelings. I mean, how do you tell someone who is the complete opposite of you that you love them. That they could honestly change you.
"Gosh Levy, why do you do this to me!? I've never loved somebody, and don't know how to tell you that I love you!"
Lesson Number One.
Just cause someone has a book against their face, doesn't mean that they're asleep.
