OMG HEADCANON ACCEPTED!!!
But… I think I know how to make it better….
“Alright, finally!” Natsu says as he wipes his hands. “We finally beat up all the thieves.”
“Yes! And we got the jewels back for that rich guy! I bet he’s going to give us such a huge reward!” Lucy cheers and bounces on her feet as she holds a small chest of jewels in her hands.
“Pfft. Whatever that old dude is paying you ain’t nothing compared to what those jewels are actually worth.” One of the thieves sneers.
Lucy’s eyes started to sparkle and she stared at the jewels.
“Really? Why do you say that?” She asks.
“Because of the legend behind them.” The thief says. “That’s why I got these guys in my village to go after them in the first place. But I’m sure that’s not important to…”
He trailed off and looked confused as a suddenly very eager Lucy was kneeling in front of him with a notepad and a pencil in her hand with sparkles in her eyes and around her head.
“Please tell me more!” Lucy exclaims.
“Really?” The guy asks, confused.
Natsu looked equally confused as Lucy rattled off a series of questions.
“Yes! I want to know everything! This sounds like such an interesting story! Please tell me about your backstory, where is your village? How old were you when you found out about this legend connected to the jewels? Does the legend have some connection to your people? Are you often accused of being perceived as bad guys but you’re actually doing this for some sort of noble purpose? What thieving techniques do you use and-”
“Whoa what the hell!” The guy exclaims then turns to Natsu.
“Hey pinky what’s up with your girlfriend, why is she being so weird?” He asks him.
Lucy’s face turned bright red.
“Heck if I know. She’s always weird.” Natsu says.
“I am not his girlfriend and I am not being weird!” Lucy shouts with such fury that the group of beat up thieves recoil in fear and Natsu flinches.
Then she turns back to her sweet and curious self.
“I could use your story as inspiration for a novel. It sounds so mysterious and filled with adventure I can’t contain my excitement!” She exclaims.
The corners of Natsu’s lips lifted, making a small smile on his face. Lucy looked so adorable and pretty when she was excited like this.
“So please tell me everything about your lives!” Lucy begs and gets ready to write.
“After you just beat us up and are gonna get us arrested? No way in hell blondie!” The thief says.
“Oh…” Lucy sighs, her excitement instantly replaced with disappointment.
Suddenly, Natsu’s shadow fell over her as he moved to stand behind her. She could feel heat coming from his body.
“Hey, she asked you a question.” Natsu says sternly as he frowned at the guys. “It’s not like you guys are busy or anything so why don’t you just answer her?”
“Natsu?” Lucy asks softly, turning to look up at him and blushing.
“Because she’s creeping us out. What chick helps beat up a bunch of guys then asks them for their life story?” A thief asks.
“My chick does! And I already gave most of you a good pounding once, and I’ll light your asses on fire again unless you start talking!” Natsu says and lights his fist on fire. “Now answer my girlfriend’s damn questions!”
Lucy shrieked in surprise and embarrassment.
“Whoa since when do you think of me as your-”
“Please have mercy on us!” The thieves cry out.
Lucy turns to see them bowing in front of her.
“Getting beat up by him once was bad enough, please tell your boyfriend not to beat us up again!” They beg.
“He’s not my-” Lucy angrily started then stopped when she realized that she had the upper hand now.
“Well…my dragon does love a good fight.” She says and squints at the thieves making them shiver in fear and then flips her notepad open and readies her pencil against the paper.
“But, I suppose I could convince him to hold back if you would be so kind as to answer a few small questions.” Lucy says and bats her eyelashes innocently.
The thieves gaze shifts from Lucy to Natsu, who growls at them and charges up his fist and they all shriek in terror before smiling at Lucy with fake happy grins on their faces.
“What would you like to know Miss?”
