Two Years Later

Lucy's POV:

"Natsu, smile, it's a party," I encouraged, elbowing Natsu in the shoulder.

"It's a dumb party," he groaned, "Why can't I go home? I already gave them their gift."

I sighed and held my forehead. I didn't want to be here any more than he did. I would so much rather stay at home with Levy, but we needed to be polite. Especially to our friends. Even if Natsu isn't pleased with how things turned out. "At least try to be supportive of their relationship," I pleaded, "Besides, it's way too late for you to get jealous. He chased you for quite awhile years back."

"W- who said I was jealous?" Natsu's entire face turned red, "Nobody... that's who."

"Hey, guys, Juvia is so happy you two could make it," Juvia walked up to us, smiling cheerfully. She looked so cute with her little blue party dress. Her hair was tired up in a loose bun, bits and pieces of it coming out of it's ties, "Her and Gray worked really hard to get the place set up before today. Hehe. It took so long."

"Well, it looks lovely," I complimented. This whole party was just to celebrate her and Gray buying a house together. I mean, that's great and all, but I didn't personally care, "Now, if you'll excuse me, Natsu needs to go get cleaned up a bit and he can't do it himself... you know how boys can be."

"Hehe. Alright. Don't be too long, though," Juvia smiled, "We're about to serve dinner."

"Okay, we will," I grabbed onto Natsu's arm and dragged him into the bathroom.

"I don't wanna stay here anymore," Natsu pouted, "It's annoying how happy they are... Gray was happy before, but now he suddenly needs her to be happy. I- I mean... I don't really care, it's just dumb...."
