A/N: Yes, two months later and I am now adding a second chapter to this previously 'complete' story. I realized that the last chapter was more or less a troll lemon, and that I don't actually have any 'complete' NaLu smut. So, this chapter is to make up for it! No trolling this time, I promise. :) It's a bit more lovey dovey and less comical than the last chapter, but it's still smut, which I'm guessing is why most of you are here. ;) There will also be some extra pairings in this chapter, including some GaLe and Guvia/Jerza hints. Enjoy!

Warnings: Lemon! Possibly some light OOCness based on how you imagine the characters to act in sexual situations, but nothing too major.

Fire and Whiskey

…

"My head... it hurts so bad…" Lucy groaned, her forehead planted firmly in the pillow rested on her lap. The bright lights, the noises… they were not her friends right now.

"You shouldn't have drank so much," Natsu stated flatly, although there was a hint of amusement to his expression. Did he find this funny?! "Here-" Lucy felt him nudge her arm with something cold. Cold glass. "Drink this, it will help."

She groaned again, feeling her hangover scream at her as she lifted her head up and got a full blasted view of the bright living room lights. "Thank you Natsu," she murmured quietly as she took the glass from him and began to sip at it.

Indeed, that was the last time she was ever going to drink that much. Not that she remembered how much she drank, she could only guess that it was a lot considering she apparently came home and tried to have sex with Natsu… oh right, that.

The bastard just had to have broken into her apartment like he always does on that night and he even read her stories, her private stories mind you, without permission… apparently that was where he got all those ideas he had last night… but, she wasn't exactly complaining. Somehow, all that craziness worked out for her, and him too. Yep, they were a thing now apparently, and Natsu was way too overly enthusiastic about it for the state of her hangover this morning.

"Hurry up and feel better!" Natsu chimed cheerily, sitting next to her and swinging his arm over her shoulder, which caused a mild blush to form on her cheeks. "I can't wait to go tell the rest of the guild about us!" He grinned from ear to ear.

"Wh-what? You want to tell them? Today?" Lucy gasped out, her blush slightly deepening.

Natsu simply stared at her as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "Well, yeah. Don't you?"

"Well…" She began, trailing off as she stared down at the half empty glass of water in her hands.

It's not that she didn't want the guild to know, but she was nervous about it. She had liked Natsu for quite some time now. Hell, she was in love with him, and she had most certainly had fantasies of sleeping with him and marrying him before – that's what prompted her to write that story about them in the first place. However, admittedly, she was always a bit embarrassed about that crush of hers. Natsu was good looking no doubt about that, but he was also impulsive, destructive, immature and at times, a bit idiotic. The exact opposite of the personality type she thought she would be attracted to in a guy.

But somehow, she was still in love with him. And apparently, he liked her too if last night was any indicator. But, even though the very prospect of her finally getting to be with him made her stomach do flips of excitement, she still couldn't deny that she was embarrassed that she liked him as much as she did, and as such, she wasn't in any huge hurry to share the news with others.

"Lucy?" Natsu questioned, staring intently at her as he tightly gripped her shoulder. "Everything alright?"

"Y-yeah, sorry. I was just thinking," She smiled softly, leaning into him and resting her head on his partially clothed chest. "We can go to the guild later… Let's just stay like this for now, okay?"

"Okay!" He responded cheerily, reminding her briefly of an overly enthusiastic child. She could practically hear the grin splitting on his face as he pulled her closer to him.

She sighed, leaning into him. He sure was warm - one of the many perks of fire mage. Yes, perhaps she was a bit embarrassed that she allowed herself to fall in love with someone like this, but she also couldn't deny how happy she was about it. And how happy she was that she finally knew that he felt the same… even if the circumstances of how these feelings were revealed were a bit… bizarre.

It was certainly no romantic confession under a candlelit starry night like she would have imagined, but it worked out… somehow.

…

"So… you two are what, a 'thing' now?"

Lucy felt her face heat up in a blush at Gray's bold remark, quickly looking away from the ice mage who was curiously staring at them, a single dark eyebrow quirked. Natsu just had to go to the guild and immediately tell everyone about them. Apparently he was impulsive about everything – even relationships. Lucy honestly wouldn't have minded just keeping it a secret for a while, if not just to have some along time with him without worrying about others prying about the nature of their relationship.

Natsu, whose arm was casually swung over her shoulders, smirked deviously at the ice mage. "What's wrong stripper? Jealous?" He taunted, and Lucy felt herself blush even deeper.

At this, Gray choked on his drink, a small hint of red tinting his cheeks as he suddenly appeared taken aback. "W-what? Jealous of what? Her?"

"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?!" Lucy scowled at him and Natsu simply laughed.

"No, I mean, you're pretty hot and all, but everyone in the guild knows that you are off limits," Gray reassured her, and Lucy once again felt her cheeks heat up on his comment on her physical attractiveness. He smirked at them. "I was wondering when flamebrain here would finally make a move."

At this, Natsu grinned, tightening his grip around her and Lucy felt her lips curl into a small smile. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad that the guild knew right away.

Levy, who was seated next to Gray, beamed at them. "You're so lucky Lu-Chan!" She sighed longingly, eyes shifting to glance at Gajeel who was sitting at the bar with Pantherlily, a light blush forming on her cheeks.

Poor girl. The iron dragon slayer has such far seemed oblivious to her interest, even though she practically lays it out on a platter for him. But if someone like Natsu could decide that he's suddenly interested in a girl, then Lucy was certain Gajeel would come around too. Maybe that's what she would right her next story about! …hmmm, "Hard Iron Love" yes, that would be the title.

"Just don't let this get in the way of work. You know that relationships between teammates are frowned upon." Erza's stern voice came as she approached the group, hands firmly placed on her hips. Lucy could feel Natsu shrink down slightly as the re-quip mage's intense gaze fell upon them, however it gradually softened and her lips twitched into a soft smile. "Either way, I'm happy for you two."

"Oh crap! I almost forgot we were supposed to go on a job today!" Natsu suddenly exclaimed, jumping from his seat and bumping against the table.

"Hey, be careful!" Lucy jolted her hand forwards to grab her drink before it tumbled over onto the table. "What job are you talking about? We didn't have anything set up for today did we?"

Natsu grinned at her. "Yeah we did, Happy and I picked one out for us yesterday. We were gonna tell you, that's why I was at your apartment last night, but then… umm…" He halted mid-sentence, a tint of red forming on his cheeks.

"Whoa, stop right there," Gray interrupted, waving his hands defensively in front of him. "I don't want to hear it."

"Don't listen to him Natsu!" Levy said before turning towards Lucy and eagerly leaning closer to her, her eyes glimmering with excitement. "Details Lu-Chan! I want details! How did it happen?!"

"I also would like to hear this story." Erza said, a subtle yet mischievous and oddly knowing smile forming on her face that made Lucy want to shrink further into her seat.

"Umm… umm…" Lucy sputtered out, wiggling uncomfortably in her seat. Her face so hot that it was as if Natsu had used his fire magic on her.

Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to tell the guild after all. She knew that they would have these prying questions! What was she supposed to tell them? That she seduced Natsu when drunk and he went along with it? And then he asked her out when they woke up naked in the bed together the next morning? Embarrassing! So embarrassing! She didn't want people thinking that she was that type of girl!

"Forget about that!" Natsu loudly interjected, causing the group, and even a few others sitting at the bar in the guild hall to look in his direction. "We have to go find Happy, we're supposed to leave for that job today!" He gripped her arm and began to unceremoniously drag her out of the bench and along with him. Lucy breathed a sigh of relief, finding herself thankful for the diversion from her prodding guildmates. "C'mon Lucy!"

Come to think of it, where was Happy? It was so unusual for him not to be with Natsu, in fact, he was often with the fire dragon slayer when he broke into her house – so why not last night? Lucy supposed it was a good thing, considering what ended up happening…

"W-wait, Natsu!" Lucy exclaimed once they were out of earshot of her female friends. "What's the job? You haven't told me yet!"

Natsu cocked his head to stare back at her, sending her that boyish grin that made her heart beat just a little bit faster. "It's a surprise," he spoke mischievously.

Lucy was quite hesitant about surprises. Especially when they involved Natsu.

…

Today's mission was an interesting one for sure, but not necessarily in a bad way. In fact, it had to have been one of Lucy's favorite missions that they had done thus far! No fighting whatsoever! Who knew Natsu would be up for such a thing? Was that the surprise?

Lucy loved kids, she always had. She always had fantasies as a little girl of growing up, getting married, and one day having a little girl of her own that she could shower love and praise upon. One that she could pass her keys onto just as her own beloved mother had to her. It was a dream of hers, one that she wasn't certain would ever come true, but today… today made her feel just a little bit closer to achieving that dream.

The young boy in question that they were performing magic for was turning nine and happened to be an aspiring wizard, his name was Bennett. His mother, Rosanna, was a single parent, and not one that was magically gifted herself, but she was quite wealthy and dutifully supportive of her son's dreams… in many ways she reminded Lucy of her own mother. She wanted them to show her son the types of magic that were out there to allow him to see what his options were.

Natsu was surprisingly good with the kids, in a way that made Lucy's heart swell and flutter like a young butterfly first learning how to fly. He knew just the right ways to talk to them, to encourage them, and to show off to them, and of course his flashy dragon slayer magic was a huge hit. After all, what kid doesn't want to be like a fire-breathing dragon? It was unfortunate that his magic was such an unreachable goal without the dangerous mean of lacrima implantation.

However Lucy's magic was a far more obtainable goal. She had summoned each of her spirits for them, and even showed off her Fleur de'toiles. The children thought that Plue was adorable, and Lucy loved the way that Bennett's eyes lit up when he met Loke and discovered that he was the leader of the Zodiac Celestial Spirits.

Aspiring wizards were a wonderful thing to see.

The party was over within a few hours, and Rosanna bid them farewell with their payment, but not before remarking on what 'adorable' children Natsu and Lucy would make. Lucy recalled on how she had choked on her own spit at the remark, but at the same time she felt oddly giddy, having felt her heart do several flips at the prospect. And Natsu, he just simply laughed it off and agreed with her.

Huh, pink-haired, brown eyed children running around, what would that be like? Or maybe they would have blonde hair and green eyes. Or perhaps they would look different entirely, maybe they would have brown hair, like her father. Lucy did find herself wanting to find out.

Not now though, maybe in the future… if things worked out…

They had ended up back at the hotel, having opted to stay the night due to Natsu's refusal to ride the train again today. Single room, one bed… after all, they were a couple now right? They didn't need separate rooms or beds.

Yet Lucy found herself oddly anxious about the prospect of being alone with him in such an intimate way. They had already almost had sex once, but Lucy hadn't remembered any of that. And the stories she had wrote about them… while she did fantasize about it, they were still just that – stories. The idea of actually being this close to Natsu willingly was still a foreign concept to her.

Happy had opted not to go with them on this mission. Snickering while saying something about them 'needing some alone time', he decided that he would go hang out with Charle for the day. But was she thankful for this alone time or not?

Lucy felt herself jump when Natsu suddenly embraced her from behind, his muscular arms encircling her waist and holding her tightly into his bare chest. She could feel his hot breath wafting over her neck as he nuzzled into it, inhaling deeply and gently grazing the skin with his lips. "Natsu…" She sighed, placing her own hands over his larger ones. It did feel nice to be this close to him. So comfortable, so right.

He wiggled one of his hands out from under her and held it in front of him, setting it ablaze and shaping the flames into what appeared to be a heart. Lucy felt her own heart skip a beat and Natsu grinned into her neck. "You know I love you right, Lucy?" He murmured, his voice slightly muffled by her skin.

Lucy felt a smile creep onto her face at his confession and she hummed in response. Like? Oh she could have guessed that he liked her, but love? She wasn't expecting that confession just yet, not this early into the relationship, but it didn't necessarily disappoint her either – because she loved him too. More than she cared to admit.

In one swift movement, she un-winded himself from his arms and turned around so that she was facing him. He appeared momentarily surprised as she tangled her hands into his hair, grasping the pink strands and yanking his head downward so that their lips collided. It took him a moment to respond, but he quickly eased into the kiss, wrapping his arms tightly around her waist and opening his mouth to trace the bottom of her lip with his tongue.

Lucy readily opened up to invite him in, her own tongue moving out to meet his and entwining together. His mouth was warm, so very warm and inviting, but such should be expected of someone who breathes fire on a regular basis. It was quite nice.

Why was she nervous about being alone with him again? This was Natsu, her partner and best friend for almost 2 years now – and now her boyfriend as well. She knew him like the back of her hand. What was there to feel uncomfortable about? In fact, she should be getting payback for the other night.

And, that's just what she would do.

She swallowed any nervousness or hesitation she may have had and began to press her body into him, urging him to walk backwards towards the bed until the back of his knees hit the mattress. Breaking the kiss, which elicited a somewhat desperate sounding whine from the dragon slayer, she firmly placed her hands on his bare chest and shoved him onto the mattress. Before he had a chance to react, she crawled on top of him and once again pressed her lips into his, readily opening her mouth to meet his tongue.

Lucy heard him growl softly, the sound reverberating through her mouth as she roughly gripped his hair with one hand, the other hand traveling south and teasingly stroking at his hardening length through his pants. His hands left her waist and traveled upwards to rest on the fabric of her top, she felt him tug on it briefly before her skin underneath began to sear with a strangely hot sensation.

She nearly fell off the bed in shock –and would have had Natsu not been holding onto her- when she glanced downwards towards her chest and realized that he was burning the material off. "Natsu!" She gasped out. "What are you doing!? You'll set the bed on fire!"

"Relax, I got it under control," he shot her a feral grin as his eyes traveled down to stare at her now bare chest. "I just wanted to try it."

That was her favorite top, and now it was nothing more than charred ash that fell delicately onto Natsu's bare, muscled chest. Oh well, nothing she could do about it now...

Natsu's hands immediately found Lucy's bare breasts, gently cupping them and running his thumbs over the rosy buds, eliciting a gasp from her. She grasped onto the scaly material of his scarf and not-so-gently tugged the material off of his neck and threw it off to the side. "You owe me a new top and bra," she whispered harshly into his ear, nipping at his earlobe as she did so.

Natsu laughed softly, lifting his head up and burying his face into the crook of her neck and beginning to lick and suck at the flesh. "Sure, whatever you want," he murmured against the skin.

Lucy once again allowed her hand to travel south, teasingly brushing it over his groin before slipping it inside his pants and grasping his length, eliciting a harsh gasp from him. She let out a gasp herself when she felt him suddenly bite down on the skin of her neck, his breaths growing quick and ragged as his arousal increased.

She pulled away from him, causing him to growl quietly in response at the loss of contact. The way he looked at her was almost predatory – a dragon waiting to consume its prey. Natsu had mentioned something about dragon slayers adopting the traits of dragons themselves – was this what he meant? Not that she was complaining, it was oddly thrilling. This was a side of Natsu she never expected to see.

However, she was going to be in control this time. He had his fun before, now it was her turn. Natsu immediately attempted to sit up to move towards her, but she firmly placed her hand on his chest and shoved him back onto the bed. She motioned for him to stay put, which he reluctantly did so as he eyed her closely.

Lucy briefly slid off of the bed, prompting Natsu to sit up on his elbows to look at her. She winked at him before sliding her skirt and underwear down her legs, allowing the dragon slayer to rake his eyes over her now bare body. Climbing back on top of him, she gave him a quick peck on the lips before moving her body south, ghosting her hands over his chest as she did so, and pulling his pants off to expose his erect length.

She had written about doing this before, hell, even fantasized about it, but she'd never actually done it herself. However, she did want to try. Natsu let out a hiss when she lightly grasped the shaft and teasingly ran her tongue up his length and circled it around the tip. Enclosing her lips over just the head, she sucked there briefly before gradually taking more of him in and moving her mouth up and down his length.

Natsu groaned harshly as she did so, moving his hand to tangle in and play with her hair while he balanced on his elbow with his other. His mouth was slightly parted, increasingly ragged breaths escaping it as he stared down at her, his eyes glinting with lust. It was a look that Lucy never would have imagined she would see from Natsu, but it made her nether regions tingle with arousal to see him like that.

Eventually, he reached his limit. She felt him twitch, hands roughly gripping her hair as he groaned and released a stream of warm liquid into her mouth. It tasted odd – a bit salty, but not bad.

Lucy moved so that she was leaning back over top of him, licking the remainder of his fluids off of her lips as she did so, but before she had a chance to do anything else, Natsu roughly griped her shoulders and flipped them so that he was now on top. He stared down at her, eyes glazed over in desire, ragged pants escaping his slightly parted mouth as he continued to recover from his orgasm. Lucy swallowed thickly as her soft brown eyes met his feral green ones – he had turned the tables on her, and he looked like he was ready to devour her whole. Not that she minded much...

He immediately began to attack her neck; nipping, licking, and sucking at the flesh and trailing downwards until he reached her breasts. He encircled his tongue around one of her nipples before latching onto it and beginning to suck, causing Lucy to arch her back against him and let out a moan of pleasure. She grasped harshly onto his hair, tangling her fingers within the pink locks and stroking his muscled back with her other hand. She wanted him, oh how she wanted him.

One of his hands found her other breast, grasping it and ghosting his fingers over the nipple while his other hand trailed south until it reach her wet heat. A sharp gasp escaped Lucy's mouth as he began to tease her, rubbing his fingers over her clitoris before diving into her entrance and exploring her inside. She constricted her walls around his fingers and rubbed against him in effort to gain more of the sensation. A sensation she had written about so many times in her erotic novels, but had never experienced herself – and it was amazing.

The Dragon Slayer Dragneel was quite talented after all, and in this instant, he had the Princess Heartfillia at his whims.

Natsu's mouth left her nipple, causing her to whine quietly at the loss of contact on the tender bud. He slowly moved downwards, trailing wet kisses down her abdomen as he did so until he reached that sweet spot in-between her legs. Lucy shivered when she felt him press his nose up against her and inhale deeply before placing his mouth on her, eliciting a moan from her.

He encircled his arms around her legs, holding her thighs apart as they threatened to clamp down onto his head while he continued his ministrations; licking and sucking at the wet, hot flesh. She let out a sharp gasp, shuddering as he slipped his tongue inside of her and stroked her walls.

Lucy felt her legs begin to quake as he extracted his tongue from her and once again began to suck on her clitoris. The sensation was so strong that she wanted more of it, yet she wanted it to stop at the same time. But soon enough she reached her threshold, feeling an overwhelming wave of pleasure wash over her, a loud moan escaping her parted mouth as she clamped her thighs hard around his head. Euphoria. Ecstasy. Pure bliss.

However, just as quickly as it came, it was over. Her tensed muscles began to relax, her legs falling limply to the ground and releasing Natsu's head as she lay limply on the bed, short, ragged breaths escaping her mouth. Lucy had reached orgasm a few times through the means of masturbation, but this was her first time with another person – and oh, it felt so much more intense, especially since it was caused by the person she loved.

Lucy was jolted back to reality when she felt him push her legs up and brush his tip against her entrance, apparently having already regained his arousal after his release earlier. A short refractory period apparently. He gazed down at her, eyes still glinting with lust as he prodded up against her as if begging for entry. She gave him a reassuring smile and at her approval, he slowly began to push inside of her.

Lucy winced slightly as his entrance caused her to feel a slight pinch of pain, but it wasn't nearly as bad as she thought it would be. However, her vocalization caused Natsu to immediately stop his movement. "You okay Lucy?"

She swallowed and nodded at him reassuringly. "Yes, yes, I'm fine… please don't stop."

A brief look of concern washed over his face before he hesitantly began to resume his movement, slowly thrusting in and out of her. The feeling was foreign, new. She'd never experienced something inside of her like this before, but even through the slight hint of pain, she could feel a small amount of pleasure rolling around in her gut at the movement.

Natsu's movements were slow and gentle, and perhaps just a little bit sloppy. However, when he hit a certain bundle of nerves inside of her, she felt a jolt of pleasure shoot through her and let out a gasp, moving her hands to wrap tightly around his neck. At this, he groaned and began to increase his pace, thrusting into her harder and deeper. His head was buried in her neck, and she could feel the warmth of his hot, ragged breaths ghosting over her skin.

Soon enough, any pain that as previously there was a mere background feeling, with frequent waves of pleasure rolling over her body and shooting straight to her core. Sounds that she didn't even know she could make were freely escaping her mouth and her hands were clenched around his back, fingernails digging harshly into his skin. Their chests were brushing against each other, the sweat from their bodies freely mingling.

Soon enough, it was over. For Natsu first – she heard him grunt, his appendage twitching and throbbing inside of her, he gripped her hair almost painfully and bit down on her neck hard enough to draw blood as he released himself inside of her. The strangely good sensation of the warm liquid within her brought Lucy to the edge as well and she wrapped her legs tightly around his midsection, clawing desperately at his back as she once again felt that wonderful feeling of bliss waft over her.

However, just like before, it was over in an instant. They both laid there, still connected as short, ragged breaths freely escaped their mouths. Yes, this was so much better for Lucy when she wasn't drunk. "I love you, Natsu," She finally sighed out and he hummed in agreement.

Oh yes how she loved him. He was an idiot, but she loved him.

Natsu grinned at her and pulled out, moving his head to brush his lips up against hers in a brief, chaste kiss which Lucy readily responded to. She never would have imagined that she would be spouting confessions of love and having sex with a guy this early into the relationship. But this was Natsu, and with him, it just felt so right. In fact, she could easily do this every day with him – she wondered if he would be up for that?

Sure, it wasn't exactly how she imagined it in her novel. But it was close enough.

…

6 Months Later…

Lucy had a new nickname for herself. Yes, along with 'awesome celestial spirit mage' she was now the 'matchmaker extraordinaire'.

It just so happened that Levy got ahold of that novel that Lucy was writing about her and Gajeel. "Hard Iron Love" – that was the one. Instead of being creeped out like Lucy had honestly expected, it just so happened that the piece of writing gave the bluenette the courage she needed to finally make a move on the iron dragon slayer.

They've been happily together for a month now.

Not to mention, her novels have had quite the assistance to her own relationship. Not only was her writing one of the reasons that her and Natsu were able to finally realize their feelings for each other, but it was also quite the aiding factor in their sex life. Lucy had wondered how Natsu seemed so experienced initially when he had never actually had sex himself before her – what a surprise when he bashfully admitted that he took notes from her writing to determine what she liked.

Not that she minded, it was quite nice that Natsu was so perceptive about these matters. It had certainly aided them well.

She and Natsu had been living together for four months now. After a couple months of dating, and during a time where Lucy was especially tight on money for rent, the dragon slayer had suggested that she just move in with him and Happy instead.

Natsu and Happy both certainly needed some lessons on cleaning, but aside from that, it was going quite well. In fact, not much was different considering Natsu had spent most of his time in her apartment prior to them officially moving in together. She and Natsu were opposites in many ways, but it didn't matter to her. He was many things that she was not, but he was perfect for her.

Her erotic novels that she was formerly ashamed of had worked out in her favor – and perhaps the alcohol social lubricant helped a little bit too.

But now she was confident, and that's why she was currently crawling into the window of Gray's dorm room, having used Taurus to give her a lift up to the entrance. She was going to give Juvia a hand – and she better not ever call Lucy her love rival again after this solid she was doing for her.

Snickering quietly to herself, she laid the novel, "The Frozen Waters of Love", that consisted mostly of stapled loose-leaf papers onto the ice mages desk. Gray was one of the worst offenders when it came to reading her stuff without permission, but he claimed that he enjoyed her writing. He should be happy that she was letting him have this one for free.

Now, she was off to go have a drink and catch up with Cana. And maybe go home and seduce her boyfriend after that.

But the real question was, who should she write about next? Erza still hasn't sealed the deal with Jellal. Perhaps that would be her next stop… Now what should she name that one?

...

END

A/N: Hope you guys enjoyed! I do appreciate feedback. Bonus points if you have a suggestion of what Lucy should name her Jerza erotica ;P
