~ I Never Got To Say Goodbye ~

He loved her. She loved him. But neither could confess their burning desire for one another. Then that unfaithful day came upon the whole guild… Yes it wasn't a dream. It was the real deal….

Lucy had died.

And ever since then Natsu had not been the same as his usual self.

He was more distant from his friends, even Happy. And his conversations were so terse he barely spoke four words. The fellow mages asked if he was ok or fine, and he would always reply with a big, fake smile and say yes, but he wasn't. Natsu cried every single night before bed because of Lucy's death.

He really loved Lucy. If he got the chance to go back in time and alter that unfaithful moment of course he would. But sadly he couldn't…

*Flashback* ~ Two weeks ago ~

It was Lucy's funeral today. Everybody trembled in sorrow and fear during the funeral. And everyone was there, all her spirits and guild mates. They all dressed in black because of the gloomy theme. The ceremony was now starting with everyone accounted for.

The funeral was held at the same cemetery where her mom, Layla and her dad, Jude were buried also. Everyone thought she would be more at peace in this spot.

'Oh why did you have to go so soon Lucy?', Natsu thought as a small, and clear tear rolled down his cheek.
