WHAT AM I DOING? I SHOULD BE UPDATING OTHER STORIES AND LOOK AT ME! Yes this is indeed a new Nalu story.
I've seen so many Pregnant Lucy fics and wanted to make my own. I tried to be original to the others and not clash with another author. That would be embarrassing…
I hope you will like it!
Once in our lives we've stopped to notice that things are nowhere near where we want them to be. And in one moment you can possibly change everything around, regardless if it's better or worse. Your job status, interests, funds, relationships can all change tomorrow if you wanted it too.
In the long run this was not what these two were expecting at all.
The rain poured down lightly that evening. The summer's day had a calling for earlier with the heat wave passing through the town. The smell of water hitting the dry earth was so rich and fresh. The sound of the rain was therapeutic and settling for children who had just laid their heads on their pillows and their mothers finally sitting down for the first time that day. The rain was romantic, perfect for intimacy and to break out a bottle of wine whilst under a light blanket.
Really, the town of Magnolia was quant that evening.
One other thing that brought the rain was that the happy Fairy Tail bar was outstandingly full that drizzly evening. Their Friday was the best night there, apart from it being the start of the weekend, it was the staff and regular clients that created the homey atmosphere.
Happy drunken laughs filled the bar almost to the brim. Almost…
A saddening moan came from the corner of the bar. A young man was overturned with emotional pain. The course of events became a domino effect and there was a guarantee that it hasn't finished yet.
The stench of Rum was potent and a soft smell of cigarettes came from his clothes. His pink hair was yanked and pulled in different directions by his own hands, signs of stress was clear. Confusion was stronger next to regret. So all there was to do in the whirlwind of his emotions was to place himself in the corner and drown himself in booze.
He was missing from the previous day and had suddenly showed up to the bar at five in the afternoon; the last person he saw was her. He made a call or two but all went to voicemail. He turned off his phone since then and ordered his first rum and coke. It wasn't long till he was near the edge and decided to get water instead. He wanted to torture himself worse than what alcohol could do, and that was remembering this night. Stirring in his own emotions and pain was the masochist's path, even though he'd never thought he'd go that route.
His eyes were shutting and reopening from tiredness, not just from the day's events but the whole week. The stress was eating at him since Monday, his work was suffering and his pocket was becoming lighter.
Groaning he pulled himself to sit straight and he pulled out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket and inhaled the puffs of nicotine. Under his eyes were signs of tiredness and worry. His uninterested eyes wondered around the bar which was happily buzzing. He continued like that for several moments before recognising someone who walked in the bar seemingly looking for someone, the pinkette had a good idea who that person was.
He roughly turned his head and pulled his jacket's hoodie over his head and slumped in his chair. He waited a few minutes and sighed in relief he wasn't discovered.
His thoughts jinxed him.
His hood was yanked off his head and he was momentarily frozen. He slowly turned his head to see an all too familiar cocky face, The Man behind him was known as his best friend but that thought always varied. His black hair was shaggy, and his eyes; instead of its familiar coldness or lack of emotion, looked alive and furious. And his mouth was in its normal scowl but the young man detected that the scowl he was wearing currently, wasn't the natural kind but was one he caused.
"Why in Hells name haven't you been answering my calls you Bastard!" the dark haired man said.
The pinkette's tired eyes rolled and he kept his mouth sealed.
The darker head male sighed frustratingly "Natsu, Lisanna is in a state. She told me you broke up with her last night."
Natsu looked down at his lap "Is that a problem, Gray?" his replied bitterly.
Gray rolled his eyes "Well I'm not sure. I don't know what went on between you guys." He replied coolly.
Natsu sighed and pointed to the seat across from him at the table. Gray slumped in and watched his friends unravelling and patiently waiting for his explanation after he lit another smoke.
"I guess you have an idea as to why I broke up with Lisanna." Natsu began.
Gray's scowl deepened "Natsu that was the whole point of you dating Lisanna, so you could forget about her."
Adding some of the ash in the ash tray he decided to leave it there "I've been dating Lisanna for almost a year Gray, and I wasn't in love. Sure she did distract me but she didn't make me fall out of love with her."
Gray stopped scowling but put on a sad expression "You know all too well you can't be with Lucy Heartfilia. She's close to getting engaged."
Natsu smiled sadly "She sent me a text yesterday saying she's positive it's gonna happen tonight."
Gray's eyes widened "So that's why you and Lisanna…"
Natsu stopped him "I'm not going interfere with Lucy and Sting. I just couldn't lie to myself anymore. And I couldn't lead Lisanna on anymore."
Gray smiled lightly and recoiled his fingers into a fist and placed it in the middle of the table. Natsu looked at it and smiled slightly and did the same and fist pumped his friend.
"Let's get you out of here and do something crazy."
Natsu had this thought in his mind since yesterday and it was definitely crazy.
"I have an idea."
…
Standing in front of the medical building that was open 24/7 Gray was sweating bricks "You can't be serious man! Are you drunk or retarded… wait you are, but even retarded people wouldn't do this."
Natsu tried to ignore the retarded comment but he unconsciously punched his friend hard in the arm. "I have my reasons for this. I think I'd be making someone happy and in the future it would be pretty interesting."
Gray wasn't convinced "Dude for goodness sake of all the medical facilities you could go to for help, you just had to choose a God damn Sperm bank?!"
Natsu sighed gallingly "Gray, I always wanted a kid, and really it looks like I won't be having one with Lucy, so I don't mind doing it this way."
Gray looked to the building once more and to his friend's face which was extremely serious. He gave up.
Natsu smiled and started climbing the entrance stairs and opened the glass door with Gray behind him. The inside of the building was brightly lit and so clean you could lick off the floor. The desk he approached was tall and made of a beautiful mosaic glass. Behind the desk was a small girl, maybe of the age of 19, her Blue long hair was pulled into pigtails and her stature was very childlike.
She looked up from her paperwork and smiled sweetly at the two men. Natsu nervously played with his fingers and finally stepped forward to talk to the young lady.
"Evening sir, how can I help you?"
Natsu looked back to Gray then back to the girl "I'd like to donate a sample."
Her hands already reached the cabinet for files to fill in but stopped herself when she smelt something peculiar about the man. "Sir, you are sober right?" she asked
Natsu cursed at himself in his head "I'll admit I had a lot to drink tonight, but I'm sober enough to make this decision."
Her face was concerned and unsure but Natsu continued before she made her decision to dismiss them or not. "Listen, there's a 98% chance I might not have a kid with the woman I love, and frankly I don't want to marry someone I don't love just to have a kid. This way will be better and I can be good friends with the mom. I might make some lady very happy."
She stared at him with surprise and she looked down at the forms and to the pinkette again.
"Alright, but I have a witness here if you try to sue us later." She said referring to Gray.
Natsu's mouth spread into a large smile which made the young lady smile too. She brought out a form.
"I'll fill this in for you to avoid suspicion. Just give me your ID and I'll take the details from there."
He handed her his ID and home address to fill in and she moved onto the next set of questions "Now it's your choice for how many woman you can give samples too." She explained
"No no, just one lady." Natsu said quickly.
Her pen glided across the page and she stood up with the form attached to a clipboard.
"Follow me and we can do some tests to see if you are a suitable applicant."
Natsu gulped but stopped her before she started moving "Just one thing before I forget. If it's accepted, would you tell me if my… little soldiers worked on the woman who bought them?"
She wrote down the request on her board and smiled at him "Now let's start"
After several tests, the pinkette was accepted and left the Sperm bank feeling slightly better than earlier and even had some cash in his pocket. The two men walked down the street on the beautiful summers evening and the rain from earlier made it humid, the smell of the wet earth pleased their noses.
They stayed in silence, as they walked home he saw many bistros with many laughing couples enjoying their dinner and candle light. His mind would wonder to the certain blonde that has been plaguing his mind for months on end.
…
Sitting at the small Italian Bistro, a blonde couple was eating by candle light, she sat in her chair shaking, her eyes were blurred and the large beads of tears raced down her face. She felt like knocking the table over and kicking it hard, but all she could do was sit there and cry.
"Lucy, please just hear me out" a males voice said to her with much strain in his voice.
Her brown orbs that were looking down refusing to meet his, betrayed her and looked up at him with her face wet and puffy. A few others looked over to their table but she didn't care, she wept to hearts content.
His dark blue orbs showed no signs of weakness, his expression was blank, his voice never changed.
"Who is she?" The blonde woman sputtered out.
The man in front of her scowled a bit "Lucy, just because I want us to split doesn't mean-"
She couldn't let him finish "Well of course it does! What else would it be? If you weren't feeling good vibes here you could have left a long time ago. I won't ask again Sting."
His forehead was gaining small beads of sweat "It's Yukino."
She abruptly stood up and collected the money in her purse and angrily threw it at his face. "That'll cover my half."
"Lucy, come on." He said in a sympathetic tone.
She ignored him and walked out the bistro ignoring his calls and hailed a cab. Once the cab came, she roughly threw her things in and planted herself in the back seat. She saw Sting getting upset in the restaurant before she went off in the cab. The flashing lights they passed distracted her slightly but the turmoil inside of her was fuming, wanting to explode.
It was by far the most embarrassing and heart-breaking thing she had endured. What she had hoped for was an engagement but she received a harsh break up and also discovered it was for another woman. She thought she was in a perfect relationship; she just wished she had seen the signs, at least to spare herself from the heartache.
The cab stopped in front of her quant townhouse, she leapt out and gave the driver a 20 because she felt bad about crying in the back seat.
Her heels were hurting her ankles and she slowly walked to the front door and unlocked it. She threw off her heels and heard her Scottish terrier run from outside through the doggy door and sliding himself on the wooden floor to meet her. His paws were slightly brown, probably from enjoying his bone outside. His happy demeanour broke her down to tears and made her slump to the floor grabbing the pooch and crying into his fur.
Her black dress was now covered in long white dog hair and his fur was damp from tears. He licked her face which made her giggle. His tail swished back and forth showing his owner that he loves her. Smiling at him with tears running down her face, she stood up and put her hands on her hips.
"Your right Plue, I need to pull myself together. And I think I'll start by taking a shower and putting this in the wash." She referred to the furry dress.
She climbed upstairs and ran a cool shower and sat on the large shower floor to lean back and soak while washing her hair. She climbed out feeling fresh and she put on her baggy pyjama pants with a three quarter loose top. She twisted her wet hair in a bun and finally put on her cow-faced slippers.
She cleaned Plue's feet too before putting her kettle on to make tea, and looked to her phone while it boiled. All her friends wished her luck before dinner.
Oh the Irony.
After making her Cocoa she sat on her big cosy couch which she and Plue sat on every night.
Once Plue sat next to her she cuddled him more "Oh Plue, looks like you'll be the only family member I have."
He barked back excitedly and she laughed "Hey, come on Plue, you know I think having a baby around would mean more love for you"
After hearing Plue whimpered sadly. "You know, I really want a baby Plue, and I thought maybe Sting was the ticket to it. I'm too sad to even think about dating someone else."
The Terrier nuzzled his face in her leg and looked up at her with big black beady eyes. She rubbed his head and slightly giggled "Come to think of it, Sting never really liked you. He's really a cat person." She remembered and Plue growled.
Slumping in the couch she noticed on the table by the kitchen there was mail she needed to sort through. She picked herself up moving Plue a bit and grabbed the mail before returning back to her spot. She sorted through the large pile of junk mail but stopped when she saw an unusual pamphlet.
Donor Insemination
Curious at the pamphlets contents she opened it up,
Many women today have had many problems facing child bearing whether they are infertile, their husbands can't impregnate or simply because many woman want children but have no man to start a family with. Donor Insemination has had many eligible candidates donate Sperm and Eggs for those who want to start their families.
If you are interested in purchasing semen and going through the procedure free of charge please contact us to make an appointment.
It's not the end of the line; you can still have a family.
Lucy's eyes began to blur again. She wiped her eyes and smiled at the dog next to her.
"Plue. We're gonna have a baby."
I'm so sorry for the short beginning but I wanted to stop somewhere to create suspense.
