Natsu was walking towards the guild, alone and sad. Why you ask? His best friend returned, shouldn't he be happy? Of course he was, anyone would.
But that day changed it all.
Ever since Lucy talked with Lisanna, the blond ignored Natsu. When he wanted to go on a mission with her, she declined ("I want to do a job with Lisanna, is that fine with you?") or not even greet him. He would always put up a fake smile, not fitting by his normal attitude and say it's alright. Happy would always go with the two girls, making the pain twofold.
Natsu opened the door of the guild, seeing Lucy, Lisanna, Juvia and Cana chat with each other. He heard something along the line of: "Great!" "Do it!" "Of course Luvia knows he will accept it!"
He blushed. He recently found out he loved her. But this game of ignoring just kept him from confessing to Lucy. He was overjoyed when Lucy turned around to meet his eyes.
"Hey, Natsu, I want to ask you something?"
Natsu smiled with joy. Finally she bothered talking to him.
"Of course, Lucy, that's what we're nakama for."
She smiled brightly at him.
"Natsu, I want to quit Team Natsu for a month."
Natsu felt pain in his heart. Quitting Team Natsu? Why?
"Me, Lisanna, Juvia and Cana want to go on missions for a while, y'know. Erza and Gray agreed. They even gave me a tip to train. Isn't that sweet?"
Natsu put up his fake smile. Why does he do that? Why couldn't he just tell that? Why couldn't he tell her…that he loved her?
"Sure, whatever you want Lucy. If you trained enough, will you fight me than?"
"Of course, thank you for listening to me."
The dense blond didn't notice the pain in his eyes and chatted once again with her female friends. Grief filled his mind, his mind blank.
"Oi, Natsu, fight with me!"
Natsu turned around to see the ice mage that was ready to fight.
"I don't want to.."
Everyone was shocked. Natsu didn't want to fight? Did hell froze over?
"I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood." Natsu declared quitly. He walked out of the guild to his house. But something stopped him.
"…su? Natsu!"
He rose up from his bed. Was that all a dream? He saw the blond looking angry to him.
"Natsu, you idiot, we need to go to Hangsan. Mission, remember?"
Natsu sighed with relief. It was all a dream.
"Sorry Lucy. I'll be done soon." He took her in his arms.
"I love you."
"Love you too."
I don't think anyone ever written this plot. Bit saddened with the fact that all of this fics are the same, so I decided to do this. Review if liked, I appreciate it.
