"Lucy?"

Lucy turned to the voice and sighed with relief when she saw the pregnant Levy walking out the entrance of the guild. The mother was holding a sleeping todler in her arms as she walked towards the tired blonde.

"Why are you outside the guild?" Levy questioned.

"Do you really want to know?" Lucy sighed, looking down at her own grown stomach. "Let me guess.. Natsu?" "Yes, my annoying husband" she nodded and Levy hummed.

"Come inside the guild and we can talk about it, yeah?"

"Natsu would hear us" Lucy grumbled. "I rather stay outside than stressing over my family" Levy opened the guild door behind her and peeked inside the guild.

Natsu was busy drinking by the bar while Igneel played with Mira's daughter, Stella Dreyar. The four year old and three year old were busy playing tag with each other.

Levy smiled at them then her eyes widened when Luna and Luke formed a fight ball.

"Give that back!"

"Never!" the twins both rolled on the floors, giving each other bites and punches. Levy sweat dropped.

She slowly closed the door infront of her and turned to Lucy. "Let's go for a walk, the kids are behaving fine"

.

"I don't know Levy.. ever since Nashi turned the age to have a boyfriend Natsu's whole personality has changed. He argues alot and drinks too much and that's a very bad example for the children. Last night I caught Igneel trying to taste Natsu's alchohol on the counter top, I scolded him and he said that his father does it all the time and he was curious to know what it tasted like" Lucy explained, walking besides Levy on a pathway.

"So Igneel is starting to get curious about drinking?" Levy questioned.

Lucy nodded, "I tried talking to Natsu about it but all he says is 'Not now Luce' " Lucy mimicked his voice and Levy hummed.

"I'm really tired of him Levy, like literally. I'm on the verge of.. I don't know. He acts like I'm his invisible wife, he doesn't even talk to me like how he used to and doesn't even touch me" Levy gave her friend a sympathetic look.

"The times when he come to bed he wouldn't even snuggle up next to me, it's like he lost all his interest in me Levy"

"And how long have he been doing that?"

"Since Nashi got together with Storm a year and three months ago" Lucy sniffled.

"Wow.."

"Yeah and during that time Natsu never once had a proper conversation with me. He'd only talk about something regarding Nashi and that's it" Lucy then sighed, looking away.

"I had enough of this and if Natsu continues.. he wouldn't like what's coming to him" Lucy whispered the last part and Levy gasped.

"You mean..?"

"Yip, I really had enough Levy" the blonde shrugged.

.

"Nash"

"Nashi.. wake up"

Nashi's eyes slowly opened at the voice. She looked up at the smiling Storm and asked groggily, "Are we there yet..?"

"The train stopped a minute ago so we have approximately five more minutes before the train moves again" Storm announced and Nashi sat up, rubbing her eyes.

"I love it when you talk smart" she yawned.

Storm smirked, proud of himself.

He turned to Nashi and smiled, "Because I am smart" "And that's why I love you" "I love you more.." Storm looked at his left then right, realizing they were the only two on the train.

"Want to do something before the train takes off?" he wiggled his brow at her and Nashi shook her head in denial, "Maybe after the mission we can at your place?"

"Why not yours?" Storm joked.

"Because Dad will murder you" "Yeah, like literally burn me alive- I know" they both chuckled.

.

Natsu turned when someone touched his back. The aroma was enough for Natsu to figure out the person.

"Daddy, I'm hungry.." little Igneel groaned, rubbing his stomach.

Natsu looked at him then around at the guild, "Where is your mother Igneel?" "I don't know she's gone" his stomach grumbled and Igneel pouted.

"Where did she go?"

Luna approached her father and pouted, "Dad, Luke keeps harrassing me and it's driving me crazy I mean-" Luke was by her side and shouted

"No I didn't- she started it!"

"Nuh uh!"

"Uh huh!"

"No you big dummy!" "Hey take that back you.. you.."

"Hah! you're out of words!" "Shut it you.."

Natsu looked at them and sighed, face palming himself. "You guys.. not today for your bickering.. please"

They both faced him, "But Dad.." they whined in unison.

"No buts, now go do time out. Luna you take the corner on the right and Luke yours on the left-" "But-" "Now!" Natsu snapped.

Luke grumbled and stomped away while Luna pouted, slumping towards her corner.

Natsu returned to Igneel and watched the quiet child.

Where is Luce.. Natsu thought.
