Disclaimer: I do NOT own Fairy Tail. That privilege goes to Hiro Mashima.
This is a scene from later on in the story. This sort of like a trailer, I just want to see the responses to it. Don't worry this'll all make sense later on. The story begins in the next chapter.
Also, the personality of this Natsu is based more off the Edolas Natsu rather than the Earthland Natsu. He might be a bit OOC at times, but the basis of his personality still revolve around Natsu Dragion with a splash of Dragneel.
To Lucy,
I have no idea how to start this. I've spent hours crumpling up paper after paper, frustrated with myself. Finally I decided to settle with this. I want to tell you something. I love you, Lucy Heartfilia. I love everything about you. Your radiant smile, your beautiful eyes, your nervous stuttering, your blushes, honestly I could go on and on. Even at your darkest moments, even when you had betrayed me and left me, I loved you Lucy. I love you more than I should, more than I can ever explain in words. You know how they say to the world you may be one person, but to one person, you can be the world? Well, you're my entire world Lucy. Look at what you did to me Lucy. Now I'm sprouting cheesy romantic lines. I guess love can do that to a person.
If you're reading this Lucy, then please don't be mad. Please don't blame yourself. I know you're going to think that it's your fault, but it's not. Remember, it was my choice to make and mine alone. You should know by now that never, ever will I let you fall. I'm your guardian angel remember? No matter where you are, I will always come and save you. No matter how long it might take me. That's just what I've done Luce. I saved you. When no one else could, I saved you. And knowing that, you should know that I had no regret in making this decision. It was mine to make and mine alone.
I'm sorry Lucy. I know I promised that I would never leave your side, but it seems like fate wouldn't let us be together. I'm sorry, Luce, if I had ever done anything to anger you. I'm sorry that I couldn't save you sooner. I'm sorry for all the times where I've messed up. I'm sorry I couldn't stay Lucy. I'm sorry.
Lucy, after you read this letter, please try to get over me. Know that wherever you are, I will always protect you. Know that I will always be with you. Please Luce, everything is going to be okay. When I had told you that I gave you my heart, I wasn't joking. I am, and will always be right by your side. So please, live on my dear Lucy. Don't you dare drown yourself again Lucy. I didn't save you to make you fall into the darkness all over again. Please Lucy, live on. If not for yourself, then for me.
Everything just happened so quickly Luce. One second, you were in my arms, and the other you ended up over here. There was too little time Luce. I couldn't warn you and this was the only way to save you. So I made a sacrifice. Be very careful to who you give your heart to next time. Because it's my heart that's beating your chest. I love you Lucy. Remember that. Even if we couldn't get together in this lifetime, I will find you again. And just like this time, I'll make you mine again. Take care of your heart Lucy. Cause it's ours to share.
Natsu Dragneel
On the bottom right hand corner Natsu messily wrote his name as he placed the letter on the bedside. He let two tears stream down his cheeks and hit the paper as he let out a sad smile. He quickly wiped the tears from his eyes, determined not to cry. He had promised himself that he wouldn't break down. He looked over at the sleeping blond on the hospital bed. She looks so peaceful, he thought. He smiled, trying to enjoy his last moments with her but tears started to from again, threatening to fall much more violently then before. Natsu bit his lip, trying to contain his emotions. Why couldn't she see that she was killing him? Why? No matter what she did, he always came running back to her. Always. He had truly loved her like nothing else in his entire life. Natsu knew that she loved him. He knew it from the bottom of his soul that she loved him almost as much as he loved her. So why? Why did it have to end up this way? Why? WHY?
He needed to kiss her. Natsu needed to kiss her, just for the last time. Just this last time. His lips trembled slightly as he began to lean towards Lucy. I will not cry. I will not cry. Repeating it like a mantra, he placed his lips against hers, drinking in her taste for the last time. Memories came flooding back as he closed his eyes. He remembered the first time they kissed, the first time they confessed, and the first time he told her that he loved her. He envisioned her staring back at him with a warm smile, with her chocolate brown eyes piercing his. He envisioned her leaning close to tell him the words he had so desperately wanted to hear for so long now. He envisioned her whispering in his ear with the stars twinkling in the background,
"I love you, Natsu."
Suddenly, something inside of him broke. He had been holding on for far too long. He had tried. He had tried so hard to become strong but he just couldn't handle it anymore. Tears started streaming down his face and onto her lips. He lay there quietly sobbing as he held her hand, lips still glued onto hers. He gently pulled away and tucked a stray piece of hair behind her ear.
"I know I couldn't make you mine this lifetime, but I swear to you Lucy Heartfilia that in the next lifetime you will become mine. Even if I have to travel to the ends of the earth, you will be mine. I swear to you that not even death will keep us apart." He gave a weak smile as he wiped the tears from his face and looked lovingly at her. "After all, I am your guardian angel." He whispered as he tore his gaze from her face, knowing that if he looked at her know, he would again break down. He couldn't allow that. He had to be the strong one, always looking out for her. Trying to contain a sob, he got up from the bed trying to steady himself. She never did say it in the end. She never did say that she loved him.
"Are you ready Natsu?" The doctor asked, poking his head inside the door. Natsu took a deep sigh and strode over.
"Yes doctor. Let's begin."
