Secrets

Chappie 18

Natsu and Gajeel were having a nice conversation as the kids slept. Wendy had her head resting on her stomach, Seiichi the same, but on the opposite side of her, and Sayuri was on Gajeel's lap; leaning onto his chest. They had been talking for over half an hour before Natsu had started to feel pains in her abdomen. 

"You okay, Natsu?" 

"Yeah, the baby's just kicking." 

He nodded before laying Sayuri down on the bench and sitting on the ground next to her and the other two kids. Natsu grabbed his hand and placed it on her stomach. Gajeel was very still and quiet, and after a while, he felt a kick. He smiled and she winced. 

"So, will Levy have the same kind of problems like this?" 

"What do you mean?" 

"Big belly, baby kicking, possibility of multiple children... Y'know, that stuff." 

She giggled and nodded. 

"Yes, the same 'problems'. What do you think your first baby will be? Boy or girl?" 

"Really hoping it's a boy, to be honest. What are you hoping for?" 

"Kinda rooting for a boy, too. Just like last time." 

Gajeel shook his head and laughed.

 "Hey, since we brought up Levy, where is she, anyway?"

 "Levy? Oh, I was letting her have her space... I don't wanna see an angry, pregnant Levy." He said; shuttering as he imagined it. Natsu giggled and watched short-haired Sayuri sit up and rub her eyes. She touched her hair, before slumping over. 

"What's wrong, niece-y?" Gajeel asked. 

"I thought it was a dream." 

"Thought what was a dream?" 

"That Mommy made my hair short." 

They laughed and Gajeel picked her up. 

"Uncle Gajeel, can we go see Aunty Juvie?"

 "Sure thing, munchkin." 

"I'm not a munchkin!!" She yelled at him. Parts of the guild laughed and Gajeel shifted her on his waist and walked toward the water mage. 

"Hi there, Sayuri!" 

"Aunt Juvie!" Gajeel and a few others laughed again. Seiichi had opened his eyes after Sayuri had, but he just laid there. 

"Mama, I think I heard a ghost in your tummy!"

 Natsu looked at him in utter confusion. 

"What do you mean?" 

"He heard the baby moving, Natsu-nee, I heard, too!" Wendy said with excitement.

 She laughed and ran her hands through their hair. She looked over and watched as Juvia made little water figurines for Sayuri to freeze. So far, they had Max, Romeo, Gray, Natsu, and Wendy. She giggled and waved to the girl who looked over to her. The little chibi waved back with a laugh and went back to freezing figures.

"Hey Natsu, how long did Gray say he'd be gone, again?" Wendy asked. 

"He just said soon. Why, what's wrong?"

 She blushed and looked away. 

"N-Nothing, don't worry." 

Natsu looked at her for a bit longer before letting it go. 

"Seiichi, why don't you go over to Aunty Juvie so Mama can use the bathroom, yeah?" 

He nodded and ran to them; helping them with their figurines. She carefully stood up, with the help of Gajeel, and walked to the bathroom. After about 5 minutes, Juvia took the kids park, Gajeel started to get worried. But what happened next confirmed his suspicions. It all happened so fast, too. It started with an ear-piercing scream. Gajeel ran into the bathroom where Natsu was and found her barely standing. Next you know,  Lucy and Mira are delivering a baby... Or so they think!
