Here's something a little different from me, so I hope you like the concept. I won't say much more than that, other than read it and tell me what you think.
The stories name may change and there also may be a rewrite if there's any interest.

Chapter 1
Lucy's POV
I slowly opened my eyes and saw a familiar sight... The infirmary, a place I was all too familiar with. Being a member of Team Natsu meant taking risks, putting everything on the line not only for our friends but also for the protection off others and more often than not, it ended with me recuperating in a sick-bed... Today seemed to be no different from any other day. At least that's what I thought...
As I looked around the empty room, I sighed... 'I guess I messed up again!' I thought as I noticed a familiar pink-haired Dragon Slayer sleeping at the edge of my bed. 'Even when he sleeps he has a big grin... So cute!' I smiled as I held back a faint squeal. Even though I'd seen his sleeping face countless times before, it never gets old. And even though I may kick him out of my bed at night, I always look forward to our nightly sleep overs... It's just too bad that he's so dense that he can't see how much he means to me.
"My dear Natsu!" I mumbled as I ran my hand through his spiky hair. "If you only knew how many times I've watched you sleep, would you return my feelings or would you find me weird?" I laughed as Natsu started to wake up.
"Luce!?... Are you awake?" Natsu rubbed his eyes and hugged me.
"Nat...su!" I was shocked at his sudden hug. Yes, he'd hugged me before, but this felt different.
"Lucy! You're really awake!... Thank Mavis!" Natsu said as I felt my shoulder getting wet. 'Was Natsu crying!' I thought as I rubbed the back of his head. 'What happened to make Natsu like this?'
"Natsu, what happened to me?" I softly said as Natsu slowly straightened up. He wiped his eyes and sniffled.
"You've been in a coma for seven days!... We... I mean, I was afraid you'd never wake up!"
"A comma!... But how?" I said as I tried to sit up but my legs wouldn't move and my body hurt all over. "Natsu... I can't move! What happened to me?"
Natsu raised the head of my bed and arranged the pillows so I was sitting in a more comfortable position. 'Was this the same Natsu I knew?' I thought. He seemed to be a lot more attentive, more mature if you will... Weird! He even looks older, it must be the light playing tricks on my eyes. I shrugged it off and stared at Natsu, waiting for an answer.
"Luce! We took a job that was close to home, all we had to do was capture and bring four escaped criminals back to the Magic Council, but it didn't go right. I just beat my guy, when I saw the light, stars and darkness, I knew you were casting Urano Metria. I ran towards you as you launched your attack and then it all went wrong... The mage you were fighting laughed and took a little girl as hostage. You!... You!... You jumped in front of your own attack to save her... And you've been in a coma since then!" Natsu said as tears ran down his cheeks. "I was afraid you'd never wake up again... Don't scare me like that again!"
"Sorry Natsu, I didn't mean to scare you!" I said as I wiped the tears from his eyes. "The little girl!... Natsu!... Is she alright? Where is she?" I felt my chest tighten and my stomach turn. 'What was this aching feeling about?' It was then that I noticed I was crying too.
"Don't cry Luce! She's fine! You saved her!" Natsu grinned and kissed my forehead. I jumped after Natsu's Kissed me... My mind was all over the place, but my heart was happy. 'Why did Natsu kiss me? Did he miss me that much? Is it because he was worried? Perhaps he likes me!' I thought as I tried to steady my heart.
Natsu jumped up and ran to the door, opened it and screamed, "She's awake! My Lucy is awake!" I could hear cheers coming from the guild hall and the sudden rush of footsteps... They were coming as Natsu sat back down next to me and smiled.
"My Lucy!" I gasped as I quickly covered my mouth. I felt happy to hear it, but at the same time I was very confused. That's when Master and Porlyusica came running into the room followed by the rest of Fairy Tail.
"Your finally awake child!... You had us worried!" Master said as he hopped up on the foot of my bed and smiled as everyone cheered.
"I can't move my legs Porlyusica... Is something wrong with them?" I looked up to her, almost begging for good news.
"Girl! You're fine now! Just give your muscles a little more time to heal. Afterall, you've been asleep for nearly eight days!" She exclaimed as she shook her head and walked out the door sputtering something about 'human fools!'
"THANK YOU!" I shouted as I wave of relief washed over me, just before a blue-haired girl ran over and hugged me.
"Ma... Master! Are you alright?" The blue-haired girl said while she hugged me.
"Who!... Who are you?" I said as she pulled back revealing a beautiful but sad face.
"Mas... No I mean, Lucy-san! It's me Wendy!" She said.
"No!... No!... No!... This is all wrong, Wendy is a teenager and you're an adult. You may look like her, but you're not Wendy!" I nervously said while raising my voice. I heard gasps around the room, as people were whispering... Talking about me. Some were confused and some were mad at me for being mean to her. "Master! What's going on here?"
"Master?... Me?" He said as he pointed to himself. "Child! Do you think I'm the Master here!" I nodded 'yes'. He shook his head, "It seems we have a problem after all!"
Well there you have it... I know it's a bit rough, but I wanted to find out if it's something you would find interesting. Let me know what you think. BTW, this won't be a story about Lucy searching for her lost memories.
