The Sakura petals were falling because of the wind. The sky was dark and it looked like it will rain. Looking dazed, a pink-haired man walked out of the glass door and along with the Sakura petals falling.

Drip, his tears fell.

Frozen in his position, Natsu touched his cheek that was already wet because of the tears he shed. What happened?

"Natsuuuuuuuuuu!" Natsu jolted when he heard someone's calling him. He directed his eyes towards the source of the voice, seeing Lisanna running towards him as her voice started to sound clearer, "Natsu! What happened?!"

"Ah… Lisanna,"

"Why are you crying?" Lisanna asked worriedly, looking directly at Natsu's eyes.

"I…Don't even know myself." He said, forcing a small laugh. His attention moved towards Lisanna's attire. She wore a black dress and black heels to go along with it. Not to mention she brought white flowers, "Wait, did you think I'm dead?!" Natsu asked at the woman in front of him.

"Nn…?" Lisanna looked down to her clothes and grinned, "Maybe!" She said as she started to laugh. "Anyway, congratulations for getting out of the hospital!" She said with a wide, sweet, smile while giving Natsu the flowers. The pink-haired guy blushed ear to ear as his heart started to beat so fast, it would jump out from his chest.

"S-Stupid." Natsu said while hiding his face with the flower she gave.

"Eh?! What was that?!" Lisanna said while pouting, not noticing Natsu blushing "Anyway, Natsu… You should hurry home. You need to rest, you know! I'm going inside for a while. Hurry up before it rains, alright?"

"A-Ah… Yeah… Bye." Natsu said as Lisanna waved and entered the hospital. Natsu turned his back to steal a glance of Lisanna walking inside and when she's gone, he walked to the direction of his house. Wait… Why was I hospitalized anyway? Why did I cry? Why didn't I remember anything? Natsu thought along the way. "God, something is wrong." He mumbled.

As he arrived, he tried to open the door but it was locked. He put his hands in his pockets and he found a key inside one of the pocket. He opened the door and took off his shoes.

"Tadaima," He said slowly. As he expected, no respond—he lived alone anyway—so he walked upstairs and opened his room, and turned out the light.

"Natsu! Okaeri!" Natsu jumped hearing someone's calling him. Am I hearing things? He looked around, as a small, flying little person—who looked like a flying doll—appeared in front of him, grinning innocently.

"What the heck," Natsu rubbed his eyes, but it didn't disappear. He stepped back a little, still focusing on that thing hoping it would disappear soon. But it didn't. "What… A toy?" Natsu said after blinking twice.

"Eh! I'm not a toy!" the thing shouted.

"It talks…" Natsu said as color disappeared from his face. With his shaking hand, he tried to poke it, "It's really isn't an imagination." Natsu said. He held that thing's wings with his thumb and index finger and pulled it closer to his face "Talk, what are you?"

"I'm a fairy!"

"I bet this is Happy's prank. He should stop coming to my room." Natsu said mentioning the name of his next door neighbor. While still holding its wings so it wouldn't escape, Natsu opened the window of his room and intended to throw it away.

"WAIT, WAIT, WAIT! KYAAAAAAA!" It shouted with all it might. Unconsciously Natsu let go of it as it flies around Natsu happily "Could you please let me explain?" It said while pouting, crossing her arms and put it on her chest.

"Wha—,"

"I'm a fairy from heaven! I came down from earth to do my job! Please don't treat me as a toy or a flying doll also a bug!" She shouted angrily. She sighed and continued "Anyway… Please take care of me!" She smiled innocently to Natsu. But Natsu only blinked few times. He seemed to be thinking deeply.

"I don't get it." He said

"Hmm…" She hummed "My job is to bring you together with the girl named Lisanna! You like her, right?" Lucy said bluntly. Natsu suddenly blushed.

"Wha-wha-wha—!"

"Don't deny it. As a fairy, I know everything about my master!"

Natsu blinked few times again as he threw himself to his bed and sat up.

"Haaaa," Natsu sighed "I don't know anything and I don't understand anything but I bet even if I refuse it you will persistently do it anyway, right? I wonder why I suddenly understand you." Natsu said while scratching his hair

"That's because now that I'm your fairy, our heart is connected!" She said, flying closer to Natsu as she's now in front of Natsu's face.

"Wow, that sounds gross." Natsu said while looking away.

"E-Eh?! How mean!"

"So, you'll stay here until you're finished with your job?"

"Yeah!" She said with a smile after nodding. Natsu sighed

"Okay, I'll find you a place to sleep. Maybe my cousin's Barbie house will help. You're smaller than the Barbie so I'm sure it'll be the best place for you to live for a while. I'll put it in the living room." Natsu said while starting to walk outside the room.

"Huh, I won't sleep here with you?" She asked, with a frown. Natsu stopped walking and turned his body toward her.

"Any guy wouldn't want a doll house inside his bedroom!"

"But…" She looked at Natsu with her teary puppy eyes as Natsu sighed in defeat.

"Fine. I'll put it here."

"Yay!" She cheered.

"So…, you… What's your name?"

"Name?" She asked back

"Don't you have a name?"

"…I don't think so? As far as I know, a fairy will forget everything about her life in heaven. Maybe I had a name, but I forgot about it." She said "Hey, Natsu. Why don't you name me?" She said while smiling, looking at Natsu, full of hopes.

"Me?" Natsu asked while pointing himself "No no, I'm not good with names." He said while walking towards the bed.

"I see…" She said, looking disappointed

"Fine, fine!" Natsu shouted while messing his own hair. He looked at the small fairy in front of him deeply. Her body is slender. She's not a chibi fairy, she's a fairy that looks like a human who grew wings and had her body minimized. Her hair is blonde, tied into a ponytail with a flower ribbon and her eyes are brown. "You… Look like someone I knew?"

"Really?"

"No… I haven't seen any girl like you. Maybe I was just hallucinating." Natsu said "I don't know what to name you!" Natsu shouted as he plopped down to his bed.

Lucy.

"Lucy… How about it?" Natsu asked. The fairy stayed silent for a while then she smiled.

"I like it!" Natsu smiled back weakly. Why… Did I suddenly think of that name?

"Sorry, Lucy. I'm going to bed. I just got out from the hospital and I need to rest for a bit."

"You… Just got out from the hospital… Huh?" Lucy said with a pained expression.

"Why are you…" Natsu suddenly tried to touch her as she snapped and flew back

"It's nothing! Actually, I easily feel bad for people so I feel sad when I hear someone is sick or is inside of the hospital." Lucy said while waving both of her hands in front of her chest.

"I see." Natsu said, pulling his hand back. "You can do anything you want here. Just don't break my stuff. I'll be sleeping for a while. Oyasumi."

"Nnn. Oyasuminasai."

God… Could you tell me? Why do I feel so empty inside?

Natsu opened his eyes slowly and blinked. The ceiling of his room was the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes.

"This is not the hospital…" He whispered to himself. "Ah, yeah… I got out yesterday." He sat up and looked around as he found someone sitting on the window's frame. A small person with a wing. The window's glass was covered with water drops from the rain and she stared outside the window, expressionless. Her eyes seemed empty. Somehow, it pained Natsu so badly.

"Lu…Cy…" He whispered. He suddenly snapped and shook his head "Oi, Lucy. What are you doing?" Natsu said while approaching her

"Natsu! You're awake?" She said as she flew and looked cheerful as usual.

"Yeah. Just now." Natsu said "What are you looking at?"

"Nothing… I was just thinking." She said as her smile became less wide.

"Thinking? About?" Hearing Natsu ask that, Lucy's looked troubled as she started to look away and bite her nail.

"About… You know Natsu, you have a lot of picture books, huh?" Lucy said while pointing the books that was still nicely placed inside the box. But the arrangement seemed to be different.

"Ah, yeah. I used to read it a lot with my cousin. Every time she comes, I'll read it to her. I guess I really loved her." Natsu laughed

"I see… I would like to see her someday."

"She's all grown up now. It's no use." Natsu said as Lucy chuckled lightly.

"You know Natsu, from the books I read while you're sleeping. I know… When you wish for something… You'll have to do something in exchange," Lucy said "Something really important. But because the main character do it out of love and that person really exchanged it…" Lucy's stare became blank "…It must be hurt." Lucy continued

"Lucy?"

"A-Ah… Sorry. I think I remembered something about the past me in the heaven." Lucy said

"Lucy, to be honest I really don't understand what you were talking about…" Natsu stood up from his bed and stretched his arms "But I'm sure… People in fairy tales... Who did that kind of thing; the exchanging thing, I'm sure it hurts, but… Because that person did that kind of thing because of love, I'm sure he or she doesn't regret it. I mean like, most fairy tales ended with happy ending, right?" Natsu said. Lucy looked shocked hearing Natsu's explanation. Natsu gasped and realized what he was saying as he blushed lightly while scratching his head. Lucy smiled brightly seeing Natsu's behavior.

"Thanks, Natsu. Hearing that from you is the best!"

"Yeah… You're welcome." Natsu said "Ah, I need to buy something outside. Wait, okay? Don't go out."

"But it's raining…"

"I'll bring an umbrella. Don't go out, okay?"

"Okay. Take care." Lucy said while waving to him. Natsu turned his head to Lucy and smiled brightly then left. Seeing Natsu's sudden smile, Lucy blushed. Her face was really red, as red as the apple from Snow White story she read.

"This is not good." Lucy whispered

Meanwhile, Natsu walked out of his house to go to the convenient store. He needed to buy something for dinner. When he about to make a purchase, he heard someone called him.

"Oi, Natsu." Natsu turned his face, seeing a man with dark-blue head approached him.

"Aah, Gray."

"What were you doing today?"

"Nothing. Just sleeping and resting. I'm feeling so tired lately."

"I see… Well, better than I expected." Gray said "Well, bye for now." He said. After patting Natsu's back hardly twice, he left. Natsu looked at him while frowning.

"What was that?" Natsu said. He sighed as he walked to the cashier and paid for everything he bought. He walked to his house again then he put the grocery bag on the dining table and walked upstairs. He walked to the direction of the storage room and took the dollhouse which was covered in dust. Natsu blew it hardly and after the dust was all gone, he walked out, closed the door and continued walking to his room.

"Hey, Lucy. Here's the doll house—" Natsu stopped talking as he saw Lucy who was staring at the window again. "Lucy?"

"Ah! Natsu! You're home!"

"Yeah. Here, the doll house."

"Wow! Better than I expected!" Lucy said

"Hey, Lucy. May I ask something?"

"Yeah? What is it?"

"Why do you always stare at the window?" He asked bluntly as Lucy's expression changed immediately. Her smile disappeared but she managed to bring it back, but only a small one.

"Why… You said? I don't know… I just like it? I used to like staring at the window from my room back in heaven." Lucy said, still smiling weakly "You know, Natsu… Maybe it is selfish of me, but…"

"What is it?"

"Tomorrow, please go on a date with Lisanna."
