Memory Lane Chapter 5

Lucy P.O.V
My head felt like it was going to explode and my tongue tasted like alcohol. I got up and found myself lying down on a plush red couch. Everyone was passed out or sleeping in the club. There was beer bottles and puke everywhere. Gray was in his underwear, Erza was hugging a pillow, Jellal was the pillow that Erza was hugging, Juvia was over the counter sleeping next to Cana, and Natsu was on the floor moaning.
What the hell happen was all I can think of. I sat back up on the couch and accidently kicked Natsu. He woke up and moaned in pain.
"What the hell happened," said Natsu. He was in a red shirt and his white scarf was wrapped around his head. He looked at me and gave a goofy grin.
"Hey Luce! Good morning," he yawned and began to groan even more. "Oww... my head is killing me! What the hell happened last night? I can't think straight!"
Natsu came over to sit next to me. I tried to think as well but my head was hurting so much that I couldn't think straight either.
"Okay. Let's try to remember."
"We left the apartment around 5:30 and drove all the way to the club."
"We...began to dance, play games, drink, and chat."
"Then Cana decided that we should all have a drinking contest." I remembered that Cana was shoving down beer down my throat, and she knows that I'm a non-drinker.
"We all got drunk and played truth or dare."
"When it came to you, Gray...," I screamed. I got up and my face was completely red. The pink hair friend didn't know why I was going crazy about. I whacked Natsu with a nearby book that was on the table. "Ow! Ow! What are you doing?! Stop it!"
"You...you jerk! You stole my first kiss!"
He looked at me with wide eyes and began to scream. Everyone was woken up by the scream and Gray was the first to get up. "Why the fuck are you people screaming in the morning?!"
"I would also like to know," Erza said as she let go of Jellal and got up. My face was in a deep shade of red like Erza's hair and I got dizzy. I didn't feel good at all and my head was just pounding as if I was being hammered.
The next thing you know, everything turned black.
Couple hours later!
I wake up from the sound of falling objects. I try to get up, but something is heavy on legs. I look to see Happy sleeping peacefully on my bed. I was able to sit up and find myself in pink pajamas. A wet towel falls off my head. How long was I out? What happened? How in the world did I even get into pajamas?!
My head began to pound again. I get up startling Happy and drag the blanket with me. I was in my apartment and something smelt funny. First place would be the kitchen.
I find a pink-haired man having a hard time trying to cook something. Instead of getting mad, I chuckled. The man looked at me and had delight in his eyes. "Hey, Luce…wait a minute!"
He ran up to me and put his forehead on mine. We were so close to each other. So close that we might have...! "Luce, you're still burning up, and is your temperature rising?!"
He picked me up bridal style and carried me to my room. "Natsu, what are you doing?!"
"Luce, you have a fever so go back to bed. If you don't, Erza is going to kill me!" He ran to room and gently laid me down on my bed. He put the damp towel back in the bowl of water. I watched him twist the towel and place it on forehead.
"Natsu...," I asked. My voice now sounded rough and sore. I cleared my throat, but that just made it worse. "Natsu, what were you doing in-!"
Natsu put a berry in my mouth. I chewed and a sweet syrupy flavor filled my mouth. It almost felt like my taste buds were exploding. It wasn't a strawberry, a blueberry, a raspberry, and absolutely not a blackberry.  I looked at Natsu with a I-want-to-know look like a child wanting to know what she got on her birthday.
"From the look on your face, you want to know what that was, nee," said the pink haired boy. I nodded which made him chuckle. "It's called a marionberry. They use it for pies, ice creams, jellies, etc. Is it good?"
I nodded again and wanted more of it. He placed a small bowl of marionberries on my bed side. He was really nice and funny. He may be bad with cooking and he may be bad at trying to do things right, but he has a good heart.

Natsu P.O.V

"Natsu, can I ask you something?" I turned to see the sick blonde girl lying down on her bed.
"Yeah Luce. What is it?" I answered Luce. She looked like she was going to sleep. "Can you tell me a story?"
I looked at her strangely. I really am not good at telling stories only at music and that's it. "What type of story?"
"Anything is fine," she whispered with the blanket covering half of her face. The only thing I could thing I could think of was our childhood. That is the only story that I like to talk about.
"Okay. This is about a girl who lived in a wealthy family. She was very pretty and had everything. Well almost everything. The only thing she didn't have was a friend. She was always lonely until one day her parent's friends came by. They also had children. A boy who was the same age as the girl, and another girl who is younger than the older one.  They had fun. They played many games and shared many things. Until an incident happened…"
I looked at Luce with a sad expression on my face. She was fast asleep. I start to hesitate. It was difficult when it came to that incident. It just brings back horrible memories.
Flashback!
It was an ordinary day in the Heartfilia garden. Wendy was sleeping with a white cat on her lap under a tree. Lucy and I were playing with Happy who was still a puppy at that time. Lucy and I were beginning to grow closer and closer every day. We did everything together. We played together, we eat together, and we even slept with each other.
Lucy was now 10-years-old. She wasn't the weird, shy girl I met before. She became a brave and active girl. Wendy became more opened to Lucy and wants to be just like her. I don't think I changed a bit. People say that I'm still a noisy, troublemaker. I'm actually happy that I am because I get to make Lucy laugh every day.
Her laugh sounded like music to my ears. I love Lucy so much and that I want to be with her for the rest of my life.
"Hey Natsu," said the blonde child as she came up to me.
"You want to try something out," she gave a sneaky smirk. What was she planning? Why does she always think of such sneaky things?
"Let's switch places!"
"Huh?"
"I mean you become me for the day and I become you," she giggled.
I looked at her as if she was crazy. "Are you crazy?! That is not going to work."
"Not unless you have a disguise." She pulled out a pink and blonde wig. She gave a creepy smile and attacked me.
A few minutes later, I find myself wearing an orange dress with a blonde wig. I see Lucy wearing a red shirt with blue short and a pink wig. Lucy laughed as she saw me in a dress.
"This is not funny Luce. Do I have to do this," I complained as I pulled on the dress. She smacked my hand.
"Yes or else it wouldn't even be fun. Now let's play hide-and-seek!" She jumped up and down. She really is weird. She comes up with stuff all of sudden and something bad happens.
"But Luce-," I tried to tell her but ran off in the garden. "You're it, Natsu!"
I sighed and decided to play along anyways. After I counted after 10, I went looking for her. Usually it only took me 5 minutes to find her, but it seems to take longer. "Natsu," screamed Lucy.
I began to panic. I ran toward the screams and finally saw what was going on. Some guys were tying up Lucy. She had panic in her eyes and was crying. "Shit! Hurry up and take the kid. I'll take care of the little girl here."
The guys didn't know that Lucy was me and I was Lucy. The guy nodded and ran off with Lucy over his shoulders. The guy that stayed behind took out a pocket knife. He ran after me. I knew some self-defense, but this guy didn't look well experienced with a knife. All it took was to kick him in the balls and once he got on his knees, kick him in the face.
I grabbed his shirt and gave him a death glare. "What the bloody hell is going on?! Where are you taking Lucy," I yelled as I gripped on to his shirt.
"What?" He looked at me with a dumb look. "That was Natsu Dragneel. That's the kid that we had to kidnap."
Wendy and everyone else came later. Papa came up to the man. "Jose! What is the meaning of this?!"
I yanked off the blonde wig. I yelled, "Someone kidnapped Lucy! They thought Luce was me so they kidnapped her!"
What?!" He pushed Natsu aside and also grabbed the one named Jose's collar...again. "What an idiot! How can you mistaken a girl for a BOY?!"
"We don't have time for this, Dad! We got to go save Lucy!"
