-Third Person P. O. V.-

After a few minutes of talking, Minerva and Erza were ready to continue the game.

Rogue, who was getting a bit impatient while eating his noodles, groaned. "Finally. Geez, you two were talking for so long it feels like it's been a month since the last dare."

Erza glared at the dragonslayer, who instantly shut up.

Lucy laughed awkwardly, trying to get back to the game. "Well, it's my turn. Sting, truth or dare?"

"Truth. That last dare... took my breath away."

"It took away ours, too!" Erza cheered.

Minerva held up the camera she used from said dare. "And General Strauss loved the pictures! She's posting them on her account on Fairybook!"

Yukino's face was pink as Sting diverted the focus back to Lucy. "Lucy, what's the question?"

The girl clasped her hands together, happy that he picked to answer her question. "So, I heard from Yukino that you named the plants in your office. What did you name them?"

Sting's eyes widened as Rogue and Lector both smirked happily, knowing full well what the answers would be.

"Well..." Sting started. "The one in the back corner, the big one, I named that one 'Charley', after the plant from Ace Atto-"

"YOU SIR JUST SCORED MAJOR AWESOMENESS POINTS!" The scarlet haired gamer yelled, interrupting him.

"...Anyway." The blonde male continued. "The one on my desk... I named it... 'Yuki'... You can probably guess what I named it after..."

"Snow?" Frosch asked, confused.

(For those who don't get it, 'yuki' means snow in Japanese.)

"That guy from the Future Diary?" Erza joked.

"The girl that you are totally secretly fucking in your office?" Minerva asked, earning a completely red face from Yukino and Sting.

"W-Would you stop saying that, Minerva!? It's not true!" Yukino asked, slightly louder than usual.

"Yeah! Besides, it's not that abnormal for me to name my plant after my favorite girl!"

Sting slapped his hand over his mouth, but it was too late. He couldn't take back what he said.

Almost the entire circle was full of smirks, eyebrows wiggles, and a cute exceed who said "Fro thinks so too!"

"Let's... let's just move on... Erza, truth or dare?" Sting said, deciding to change the topic.

"I don't trust you to go easy on me. Give me a good one! Dare me up, Scotty!"

Sting looked over at Rogue, who nodded firmly. The two shot smirks straight at the red head.

"Before I do, you should know something."

A chill ran down her spine as she saw the cocky expression on their faces.

"Rogue and I know that you, Minerva, Dobengal, Arana, Rufus, and Boobs McKenzie spied on our dates."

The six of their faces fell, utterly shocked by this news. The other people in the circle were confused, and Lector was a bit angry that he wasn't invited.

"H-How!? How did you know!? We were totally hidden and careful!" Erza asked.

"I'm surprised. You forgot about our dragonslayer hearing." Rogue explained.

Erza and Minerva's mouths dropped.

"To be fair, though. We didn't know it was you at first. Your code names make us think it was that Mirajane and her followers, but we realized you were the one behind it after the ice cream parlor. Dragonslayers also have a keen sense of smell, so I recognized Lucy's scent when she took our orders." Sting continued.

"What do I smell like? Is it bad?" Lucy asked, a bit embarrassed.

"Everyone has a different scent, and dragonslayers are really good at differentiating them. Strangely enough, yours is similar to sweet milk, but there was a slight scent of brimstone, which is what Natsu's scent is."

The girl blushed, deciding to ignore the smirks from around her.

"I'm rather curious about how you managed to get control of the ice cream parlor, though." Rogue added.

"Would you refuse a lieutenant of the MSAF directly to her face?" Minerva said.

The two dragonslayers, Kagura, and Yukino shook their heads.

"Did you really figure it out just out of Lucy's smell?" Arana asked.

"Well, to be fair, there's not many people we know who would use the code name 'Scarlet'" Rogue said.

Erza slammed her hand down. "Curses! I should have used the name 'Franziska von Karma!'"

"Fro thinks so too!"

Most of the circle let out a laugh.

"Okay, so you want to take your turn, Erza?" Orga asked, chugging down a bottle of orange soda.

The requip mage thought for a second. "I think we've done enough truth or dare for tonight."

"Are we going to watch movies now!?" Millianna asked excitedly. "I want to watch Milo and Otis!"

Erza laughed. "No, Millianna. Not yet. How about we play one of the most classic sleepover games in history?"

"Spin the bottle?" Arana asked, wiggling her eyebrows at Dobengal, earning her a blush from the ninja.

"No, but that will come soon enough!" Erza looked very proud and excited as she pulled a notepad and a pen out of her cleavage.

"Rufus, if you could please let me use your hat?"

The memory make mage happily handed over his hat, revealing his ruffled royal hair. (Yay, Alliteration!)

Minerva stared and his sexy ruffled hair and wiped away a small nosebleed.

Erza doodled a small picture on the first page of the notepad. Then she tore it out, folded it up, and placed it into the fancy hat.

"You guys know the rules to '7 Minutes In Heaven', right?" Erza asked, giving the hat, pad, and pen to Rufus.

Everyone in the circle nodded, minus Frosch and Millianna.

"How do you play that?" The cat girl asked.

Erza decided to explain. "So, we all draw a little picture that represents us and puts it in the hat. Someone will pull a piece of paper out and the person who's picture it is has to go in the closet with whoever pulled the picture out for 7 minutes." She pulled a stopwatch out of her breasts. "I'll be keeping track of time. But if I get picked, Minerva here will do it. Or Rufus if we pick the other."

Millianna nodded. "Oh! So I can spend 7 minutes hugging the adorable kitty!?"

"No, we're not letting Frosch or Lector play, as I don't want them to suffer the force of your hugs for that long." Erza told her.

"Aw..." Millianna was a bit saddened.

Lector wasn't. "Thank you!"

Rogue was also relieved that his cat would not have to suffer that fate.

For the next few minutes, all the participants passed the hat, pad, and pen around the circle. Soon the hat was full of little doodles of all kinds.

Erza drew a strawberry, but she wasn't the best artist, so it looked like a lump with dots.

Rufus drew a clock because he always remembers the time.

Minerva drew a feather for her fancy nature.

Orga drew a musical note.

Millianna drew a little cat head.

Rogue expertly drew a frog.

Kagura drew a sword.

Sting scribbled a lightbulb.

Yukino drew a tiny rose like the one in her hair.

Lucy drew a simple key.

Beth drew a little carrot.

Risley drew an anvil.

Arana made a scribble of a spiderweb.

And Dobengal took a minute to draw a ninja mask.

Erza then shuffled all the papers up in the hat. She then looked at the group.

"So, who wants to go first?" She asked.

Before anyone could answer, the guild doors burst open and a loud voice boomed into the room.

"WHERE THE HELL IS LUCY- Oh, hey Luce."

Of course, everybody recognized him.

He was the guy who beat the light and shadow dragonslayers.

He was the guy who helped teach them the value of friendship.

He was the guy that was currently dating the blonde girl with the giant breasts in the room.

Natsu. Fucking. Dragneel!

Lucy gave an awkward wave to her boyfriend. "Hey Natsu..."

Erza spied a brown suitcase with a flame decal in Natsu's hand. "Natsu, what's that for?"

Natsu held it up. "Oh this? Well, Lucy invited me over here to... pluck some cranes out? So, I thought that whatever it was would take a while, so I packed the essentials and ran right over! Gramps gave me permission to stay here for the week with you two!"

Minerva, Erza, and Lucy's mouths dropped.

Minerva spoke first. "Natsu... is... Happy... with you?"

Natsu shook his head. "Nope. Actually, he caught my cold, but Mira is tired of watching sick people, so Wendy is now in charge of him. She was so happy when I left her in charge of him!"

Erza and Minerva let out a relieved sigh.

"Natsu. quick question. What counts as 'the essentials' to you?" Rogue asked.

"Tooth brush, toothpaste, pajamas, and some pictures."

Everyone kinda just stared at him.

"Pictures of what?" Yukino asked.

"Pictures of me and Luce."

Lucy blushed as another round of smirks and eyebrow wiggles filled the room.

Suddenly, Natsu spotted the table filled with food. He was about to go chow down, when he spotted the bowls of ramen in the circle.

"Aw man, I missed the ramen!? I love ramen..." He was a bit sad that he missed out.

Lucy looked down at her half finished bowl of noodles. "Natsu, do you... want to share the rest of my ramen with me?" She pulled a spare fork from the tray that she had set down next to her. "I brought an extra fork in case I miscounted."

Natsu immediately threw his suitcase down and sat next to Lucy. "Sure! Thanks Luce!" He gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before eating a few noodles.

Lucy blushed as an idea popped into Erza's head.

"Natsu, pick a paper!" She shoved the hat towards Natsu.

Lucy's eyes widened as Natsu stuck his hand in without a second thought. "It's a key. What's that mean?"

Almost the entire circle was stifling giggles. Lucy, on the other hand, was profusely blushing now.

"It means you and Lucy have to spend 7 minutes in the closet. Alone~" Erza teased.

Natsu slurped up a noodle. "Okay. Sounds fun. Where's the closet?"

Sting pointed to the stairs. "Right on the second floor is my office. You can use that. Here, Erza." Sting pulled a key out of his pocket and tossed it at the scarlet haired shipping maniac. "Since you're in charge of the game, you can keep track of the key to my office to lock the door, but I want it back after it's over!"

"The... second floor?" Natsu seemed a bit interested in that.

"I heard that in Fairy Tail, only S-Class mages are allowed on the second floor. Here, we let everyone. The S-Class mages have the secret S-Class lounge that I made Sting pay for." Minerva said.

"Where's the secret S-Class lounge?" Natsu asked.

"If I told you, it wouldn't be a secret." Minerva answered, grinning.

Natsu shrugged and stood up. Erza, Lucy, and him walked up the stairs to the office.

"So, I'll lock you two inside and keep track of time with this stopwatch." Erza showed it to Natsu. "After 7 minutes are up, I'll knock on the door, and you will have 30 seconds until I open the door. Remember that I will call Minerva up here to take a picture of whatever you two are doing the moment we open the door. The picture will be deleted however if we find it uninteresting. So, keep that in mind. I would LOVE to catch you two in... a compromising position... but, I have to be fair. You understand Natsu?"

He nodded his head.

"Good." Erza opened the door. "Get inside."

Lucy stepped inside the office. Right before Natsu did, he froze. "Oh, wait a second!" He ran downstairs. The remaining girls looked at each other. After a moment, Natsu ran back upstairs and into the office, holding something. "I'm ready!" He said as he slammed the door. Erza just shrugged her shoulders, locked the door, and started the timer.

"Now I wait." She said to herself.

-Inside Sting's Office-

Lucy was curious about what Natsu was holding. "What do you got there, Natsu?"

He looked at the thing in his hand. "Oh these? I figured since we'd be in her, I might as well change into my pajamas for the night. You don't mind, right Luce?"

Lucy's face was the perfect shade as Erza's hair.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And the long overdue chapter comes to an end! I severely apologize, I'm been busy recently, so I haven't been able to sit down and type out 2,000 words.

But, the mega chapter is done, so I should be able to write more chapters faster now that it won't take so long!

Anyway, next chapter will have lots of NaLu fluff and stuff.

For those curious about if I'll make a NaLu book, I will. For now, it's going to guest star in this StingYu and Rogura book. BUT, I have a thing about this.

I will be making a book for about all the ships in Fairy Tail. Here's the current list.

NaLu: None

Gruvia: None

GaLe: None

Jerza: "Redemption of Love" (Active)

(As a side note, I'll be making an announcement in the next chapter of Redemption of Love, so keep an eye out for that.)

StingYu: "The Love of Tigers" (Active)

Rogura: "The Love of Tigers" (Active)

Miraxus: None

ElfGreen: None

Bixanna: None

Baccana: None

Rowen: None (Planned)

(As another side note, the "planned" status means that I already have an idea for what the book will be. I won't tease you, but the book will focus ONLY on Rowen.)

Zervis: "Shadows of Light" (Complete) (Planned)

(Yep. I'm planning to make another Zervis book. I feel like my new style of writing would work well if I work with them again.)

Lyredy: "Redemption of Love" (Active)

Kinabra: "Redemption of Love" (Active)

Macano: "Redemption of Love" (Active)

RufMi: "The Love of Tigers" (Active)

Orllianna: "The Love of Tigers" (Active)

DorAna: "The Love of Tigers" (Active)

Chappy (Carla x Happy): None

Lahar x Mest: None (Unplanned)

(Okay, after watching the start of the Tartaros arc, I shipped them. Maybe some kind of book about the 7 year gap? I don't know, that's why it's unplanned.)

AlBis (Alzack x Bisca): None

(Okay, I REALLY want to do a book with them as a main focus couple! That's why they aren't together at the start of "Fiore University". I think they are ADORABLE and deserve more time in the spotlight! And more fanart! I'll have to go digging...)

Lories (Loke x Aries): None

Aquario (Aquarius x Scorpio): None

Makalyusica (Makarov x Porlyusica): None (Unplanned)

(Maybe some kind of flashback book about Makarov's youth? I just don't know if I'll do that, which is why it's unplanned.)

Edolas NaLu: None

Edolas Gruvia: None

Edolas Jerza/Mystowalker: None

Rerry (Ren x Sherry): None

Hibikenny (Hibiki x Jenny): None

Evelia (Eve x Chelia): None

To be honest, those last three will probably be all in the same book. Like a Blue Pegasus book. Also, Edolas AlBis probably WON'T get a book, because, despite it being canon, there wouldn't be much to work with. But, the other 3 Edolas ships might all get rolled into one book. Also, if there are any others I'm forgetting or you think deserve some looking into, then please tell me. Oh, I suppose there might be a Spriggan ship or two, but despite being caught up in the manga, I've not seen the beginning of the Alvarez arc. I need to do some catching up, but I really want to do Brandish x Dimaria. And we all know Larcade will get a ship eventually.

Okay, time for the pictures! I'll even throw in a NaLu for the long wait!

I can never get over how cute they are.

Super cute and super good drawing I found on tumblr. Sweet!

Nothing's more adorable than cute fanart of your ships, right? I'm gonna go find some Komamiki now. It's a different fandom. Night guys!
