Konnichiwa Mina! Amaya here! This is my very first fanfic that I have written, I know it's not the best material or it may have errors but please bear with it. This story is not like any other, here in this story, Lucy Heartfilia is ten years old, while everyone else is their normal age. I still haven't decided who should Lucy end up but if there is someone in particular you want her to end up, tell me I'll might even use it. I don't own Fairy Tail. Enjoy!
Chapter 1
Lucy's Pov
How can they even forget I'm here… they were supposed to be my Nakama…I guess I was only a replacement for Lissana the bully…I'm just like any old worn out doll tossed away in the basement…I though as I saw Team Natsu with Lissana. It's been a month since Lissana returned from the dead, and Fairy Tail has been partying all month. I mean I don't blame them for spending more time with someone you lost a long time ago but ignored a freaking ten-year is not cool. I sighed and turn the barstool around so I could talk to the person who hasn't forgotten me, Mirajane. Mirajane was an oneesan to me, since she treated me with care. "Mira, could I get a strawberry smoothie?'', I asked as I lay my head down on the bar and looked at her drying the cups. She was startled by my voice that she dropped the cup she was cleaning," Shi…Lucy I didn't see you there", as she looked at me and started cleaning the mess she did. "I was here the whole time but no one notices my presence anymore…'' I murmured as my bangs covered my face.
She started preparing a smoothie after cleaning up the broken cup, "You wanted a strawberry smoothie right?" "Yeah…" I said giving up of the though and started looking for Levy. Levy was the one that told me I should be a writer when I grow up since she has read one of the stories I have written. My gaze went all around the guild looking for a short teenage girl with azure colored hair, I spotted her but she was with a very muscular man with long, spiky black hair. I looked away rapidly, it was Gajeel, I'm scared of him just because he scary looking. "Here ya go!" said Mira, handing me the smoothie. "Oh..Arigato Mira!" I sipped some when Lissana comes up to me ,"Hey brat, come here for a second?" I followed her outside the guild, "Brat, I been noticing how you look at my boyfriend, Natsu!", she yelled as she grabbed me from the collar of my shirt. I blushed as she said when she said that, it was true I fell in love with Natsu the moment he saved me from the lolicon, the fake "salamander" at Hargeon. "Brat! Listen you better not get close to him or else…", she commanded as she throw me to the ground and step on my abdomen. I felt that one of my ribs broke, "This is the last time I warned you! She kicked me directly in my stomach, and walked away. I couldn't see very well my vision seem to get blurry, I touched my face and felt wet tears. When did a ten year old become a thread to a relationship? He is seventeen and I'm ten how can that even work out, Natsu only thinks of me as a little sister just like Wendy. I felt pathetic for not saying anything at Lissana and letting her treat me like trash. I never notice that Natsu's arms were around me.
Natsu's Pov
Just as Lissana returned from outside the guild, Lissana had this weird grin on her face that made her looked weird, and she sat down next to me. "Natsuu! When are we going on another date?" she asked as she was holding my hand. "Tonight if you want" I responded feeling unconformable since I didn't like to hold hands. Sometimes I though holding hands was a bother but then I knew holding hands made Lucy smile. Since she didn't have any big relatives, I acted as a big brother for her. Things I do to make people happy, then I started smelling strawberries and salty tears combined. I definitely knew the smell I could recognize the smell from anywhere, it was Lucy. Lucy was in trouble like that time she got almost kidnaped by the fake "Salamander", I couldn't waste any time here. I stood up, "Natsuu! Where are you goooing?" whined Lissana as she hugged me from behind my back. "I need sometime fresh air…" I lied as Lissana lets go of me. "Okay, then tonight at nine in the same meeting place!" she said as she continue her blabbering with Erza and Gray. I walked outside to find Lucy kneeling on the floor crying. Her clothes were all dirty, whoever did that to Lucy was surely going to suffer the consequences. "Luce who did this to you?" I asked as I kneed down to hug her. "No..one.." she sobbed as she hugged me tighter. Then out of nowhere I got an idea, I let go of her and started ticking her. "Hahaha..Natsu…Stop..haha.." she said through the giggling. I stoped and hugged her once again, "Luce, you should stop trying to be tough, you can rely on me" I whispered in her ear. She hugged me back, "theres no way you would believe me" she murmured. I complety froze from hearing that, "What?" I asked as I pull her off me. "I said Arigato, Natsu but I can handle it" she replied as she stood up from the ground. I stood up and ruffed her hair, "Good to hear that"
Lucy's Pov
"There was no way I would tell Natsu the truth, he wouldn't believe that his girlfriend was bulling me, All I ever do is worry people" I though as he ruffed my hair. "Good to hear that Luce!" he grabbed my hand and we started walking around town. As long I can be near him I'm happy with that, I all I ever need is Natsu by my side. He took me to my favorite place in town, the ice cream shop. He order a strawberry one for me and a chocolate one for him. He gave me the strawberry one and I started eating while he paid for the ice creams. Out of nowhere I saw a pair of boys my age. One had spiky blond hair like me with blue eyes and the other one had messy black hair with red eyes that reminded me of Gajeel. They looked that they haven't eaten in days, I walked toward them and grinned "Here! You can have it" I gave them the ice cream they needed it more than me, they seem shocked from receiving food from me I guess. I saw how they splitted the ice cream into two pieces for them. "Arigato Gozaimasu" they said after finishing the ice cream. "You're welcome" I said as I heard Natsu calling me, "I gotta go see you later!", as I ran toward Natsu and jump on him. "God Luce, where were you?" "I was with some friends, Natsu" I explained to him and look up at the sky, it was getting dark. "I thought someone kidnaped you or something, anyhow let's go home" he said as we walked home. We did not live together but he would always crash my place. "Today I met two boys, Natsu" as I open the door of my apartment with my keys. "Wow! What were their names?" he asked as we entered inside. "Hmm I forgot to ask" I giggled scratching my head as I entered to my room to change to my pajamas while Natsu grabbed a snack. After I finished changing to my pajamas, Natsu came in. "Tonight, I have a date so I can't stay with you but lock the door, Alright?" Natsu said while tucking me to bed. "Okay..." I murmured as he kissed me good night. "To make it up I'll take you fishing tomorrow with me and Happy" he told me as he closed the door. I was disappointed that Natsu wasn't stay with me but tomorrow was a new day so I don't have to worry about Lissana's warning because Natsu was taking me fishing with him and Happy. But I had no idea what was going to happen tomorrow.
