Prologue

It has been 3 years since Natsu dragneel died but I still can't believe it. I have locked myself in my apartment ever since that day. People have tried to call and text me but I refused to reply.

Today I will end this. I will step out of that door. Why you ask? Because Natsu told me to. I know that sounds weird because I just said that he was dead but that's not how it is. Natsu came to me in my dream and told me to go live life and have fun for both of us. So I listened to him.

I clutched my purse tighter and took a big breath before releasing it. One step will change my life. I hesitated before opening the front door and stepping out.

To my surprise there were notes posted outside my door.

"Lucy, we miss you" I read one of them

"I want my best friend back. Lu-chan please come out"

"Lucy-san I might not be able to help you get over it but I want to try"

"Hey blonde what the hell are you hiding yourself from? Come out"

I started crying as I read all the messages from the guild. I was so stupid for making them worry so much. I have to go apologize.

I marched to the guild with a big smile on my face. Natsu, can you hear me? I'm going back to the guild. Please watch over me.

"L-Lucy?!" Mirajane saw me first when I entered.

"Good morning Mira-chan" I smiled

"Lu-chan!" Levy jumped into my arms and I hugged her tightly.

One by one the guild members came to say hello. It was like I never left.

"It's quieter now that that salamander isn't here" Gajeel said

Everyone gave him a glare but I just chuckled.

"It is isn't it" I pulled a string of my hair and pushed it behind my ear.

"Lucy, welcome back" Master Makrov held my hand and gave it a little pet.

"Master" I was glad he didn't kick me out after all I did back when Natsu was killed.

"Guys" I stood on a table and said to get everyone attention,"I wanted to apologize about all the horrible things I did and said to you back then and also for making you worry. I-I'm sorry" I bowed down secretly hoping they will accept my apology.

"Hahaha" Gray began laughing then everyone joined in with him.

I was confused about their action.

"Lucy we won't accept your apology until you...return to us all the time you took away by making us worry" Gray began

"Yeah. You have to spend at least one day with every guild member and do what ever they ask for" Erza had an evil smirk

I smiled then agreed to their conditions. This will be fun.
