When Natsu finds the woman he's been looking for for the past 2 weeks, he gets injured and, when the doctors tell him he has to stay in strict bed rest, she offers to take care of him. (AU. Lots of teasing, fluff and adult stuff in later chapters).

When Lucy is invitited for a mission in Crocus on her own, and Natsu is not allowed to accompany her, he decided to take action to make the time apart easier to bear. This will lead to a new path to their relationship, something Natsu didn't realize was possible, but Lucy had been hoping for a while now. Smut as of the 2nd chapter. My first ever story ever. I hope you enjoy it!
