Hi everyone , I'm back! I thought about making a new story! Sooo.. Here I'm.

This story is going to be a little depressing.

I'm currently editing this story as well and add some new things if I must.

Enjoy~

Lucy was walking down the street and was humming. She was going to see if there were some new missions at the guild. Plue was beside her. Lucy looked at him and asked him "What do you think Plue ? Isn't it such a nice weather today to spend with our friends on a mission and earn me a little bit of money so I can pay my rent? Besides, Natsu said that he was going to help me with this rent," giggled Lucy thankful for his help.

"Pluuee, Plueee."

Lucy laughed and picked him up. "You're so cute my little Plue." Plue blushed a bit and cuddled in her chest making Lucy chuckle and continued her walk to the guild in silence.

TO THE GUILD.

"Wow Lisanna, you sure didn't change so much!"

"Lisanna, here! Come spend some time with us too!"

"Hey, Lisanna! How are you?"

"We are so happy that you're back with us again!" The guild was full of cheers and the guild members asked too many questions and hugged her, making Lisanna feeling back at home and smiled and answered their questions the best she could. Then Natsu walked to her with his signature grin and put a hand on her shoulder and said "I'm so happy that you came back Lisanna. We are going to spend so much time together like we used to when we were little !"

"AYE!" said Happy flying in her arms.

"Natsu.. I'm happy too!" she said hugging him and Happy making Natsu blush and scratch his chin. Mira came up to them and said cheerfully "Everyone! Tonight is going to be a party for my little's sis and because she's home again with us!" Mira beamed smiling.

"YEAH! FOR OUR LISANNA!" cheered very loudly the entire guild raising their drinks in the air.

Lucy's POV

''What's with all this noise?"she thought outloud and walked inside the guild with small steps. What she saw made her eyes widden. 'L-Lisanna is back? I-I thought she was d-dead? Oh, I remember now she came back from Edolas. From that strange place. But why do I care? Anyway, it's selfish of me to be jealous because of the attention she's receiving and on top of that she deserves it since everyone thought of her dead and missed her terribly. Get a grip stupid Lucy.' she thought shaking away any bad and useless thoughts and walked up to her team and Lisanna and greeted them.

"Hey everyone!'' Lucy greeted smiling and then turned to Lisanna and extended her hand for the white haired take over mage to shake"I'm happy you're back Lisanna," Lucy said again and noticed a slight change in Lisanna. She just looked at her and a little bit of anger swept across her features. Sadly, only Lucy noticed.

"Yeah.." said Lisanna turning around ignoring Lucy and going all over Natsu. Lucy feeling awkward pulled her hand back and smiled nervously. 'What's her problem ?' Lucy thought sadly and then turning to Natsu she asked "Hey, Natsu I was wondering If we could go on a-" she was interrupted by him and got answered with another question.

"Lucy, we need to talk, come with me will you?" Natsu asked still grinning but let go of Lisanna and pulled her in a private space of the guild, but Lucy noticed Lisanna glaring at her. She shivered and let Natsu pull her along with him. 'Was that my imagination again?

"Lucy. I was wondering if you could please let Lisanna take your place? We haven't seen in for so so long and-," he too got interrupted this time by Lucy raising her hand and shaking her head smiling kindly. "Yeah. I understand Natsu. It's okay," somehow it made Natsu's heart ache but he didn't understand why though and he just brushed it off. He really thought he is making a good choice.

"REALLY?! YOU'RE THE BEST LUCY!'' and with that said along with a stupid smile he took off back to the others. Lucy tightened her grip on Plue, who whimpered sensing she was about to cry. 'Why? What's with this pain in my chest? My heart hurts' walking silently out of the guild forgeting about taking a mission with...it didn't matter anymore. Lucy was almost home when she felt a hand on her shoulder and turned around to see a beaming Natsu and quickly faked a smile and asked him "What do you need, Natsu?"

"Well, I was wondering If you could come to the party we are going to have right now for Lisanna, for her arrival and for her joining the Team too!" Natsu said oblivious that he's hurting Lucy further and with his signature grin widening too 'It's like they are rubbing it in my face. I-I'm not going to cry in front of him! No way I'm gonna destroy his happiness just because I'm hurting' Lucy thought and fought back the tears that threatened to fall from her chocolate orbs.

''I-I don't know Natsu,-'' she softly began but sadly Natsu's puppy face and pleads stopped her mid sentence.

''PLEEEASE?''

Lucy sighed and faked another smile and approved, and then she let herself get dragged back to the party. She sent Plue back to the spirit world, to let him rest, but she felt so alone right now.

TO THE PARTY.

Still in Lucy's POV.

"FOR OUR NEW TEAM NATSU MEMBER! AND FOR OUR LITTLE'S LISANNA ARRIVAL! WE REALLY MISSED YOU!'' Everyone screamed and cheered and raised their drinks once again. Everyone was happy. But a certain blonde was sulking in her favorite stool at the bar. 'I just want to go home besides if it wasn't for Natsu's pleads I wouldn't have been here anyway. I'm sick of this already,' Lucy thought getting up from her stool and turned around. What she saw send shivers down her spine and her blood run cold. Lisanna was obviously smirking at her and she sat in Natsu's lap hugging him too close for Lucy's taste and talking to her now ex team about past times with all of them little.

Lucy looked away gritting her teeth 'I shouldn't feel this hurt and jealous. It's not like I can just go there and throw her off him. Of course Natsu loves her back just as much. She's his childhood best friend after all, damn it what's happening to me?!' and then it hit me hard. So hard that my knees began to tremble and my breath hitched in my throat at the sudden realization. I loved Natsu. At first I thought it was because we were always together and all times he ALWAYS saved her and cared for her if I got hurt and it took this hearbreaking events to realize this. 'I was just a replacement all along. Now not only this sucks but hurts like a bitch as well' holding back tears I ran and ran out of this guild. But no one noticed, because they were too busy with Lisanna.

I reached my apartment in record time and unlocked the door and got in. I smiled sadly as tears poured down my red cheeks that were like this from all the running. My shaky breath came in short gasps at how tired I was.

''I-I'm so stupid.. I half expected Natsu to be here on my couch grinning and eating all of my food again with half of the rooms in ruins too," Lucy talked to herself loudly and fell down on her knees. It hurt so bad! It was like someone ripped her heart out of her chest, throw it down and stabbing it repeatedly and then pouring salt on it. The pain was unbearable. She clenched her heart with her small hand and tears continued to fall on the rug.

"STOP, SOMEONE PLEASE STOP THIS PAIN! P-Please, anyone.." she screamed but her scream died down to a mere whisper with her voice cracking at the end.

"Natsu...Why.. '' she closed her eyes and cried herself to sleep on the floor, not having the strenght to get up and go in her fluffy bed..

I hope you like this chapter. Man, I feel bad.. for making Lucy suffer. Sorry if this sad! But later it will get better. Maybe... Anyway! I don't own Fairy Tail.
