Don't Be In Love With Someone Else.:

This is it. This is the day that I, Natsu Dragneel will tell Lucy Heartfilia that I love her.

I was beyond nervous. Were you supposed to be this nervous? Was this love? I never really knew what love was, I wasn't really interested in anything I couldn't eat or pound my fist into.

But when Lucy came to Fairy Tail, my perspective changed, you could say. I felt different around her. I never really realized how much I cared for her, how much I needed her. She was much more than a nakama, and it had taken me two years to realize it.

Love was way different than fighting, like dogs and cats. It was scarier, to be honest. My opponent in this wasn't something I could see or touch. It was like...a force.

"Don't be such a girl,Igneel taught you better!" I scolded myself quietly, tightening my fist and beginning my trip to Lucy's house. I swallowed nervously, trying to grasp some confidence, but the sentence only held hollow words. It wasn't much, but I had a pink glowing rose in my hands. I had gone on a mission to get it, since only ten of them bloomed a year, they were extremely rare. I had heard something from Mirajane that Lucy would love it, so I left for two weeks and got it.

Thinking about it, it kind of sounds stupid. Working so hard for a stupid rose, seriously? What kind of idiot was I? Some old lady told me that whoever I gave this to would be my life partner, whatever that meant. I was gonna give it to Happy, since he had basically been my life partner. But Mirajane told me to give it to a girl, so I automatically thought of Lucy. I smiled to myself, reminiscing in old memories of all of us, the original Team Natsu.

I finally reached her house and took in a deep breath before climbing in through the window, opening it and shouting out "Lucy~ I'm here!" Before stepping in. If I didn't tell her beforehand, she'd kick me in the face and knock me out.

No answer.

I walked around in confusion. Where was Lucy? Wasn't she always home or at the Guild? I sighed, standing in the middle of the room and holding the flower behind my back, my nerves becoming even worse.

I waited for a while, and finally the door opened to reveal Lucy. She stared at me in surprise, then broke out into a heartwarming grin.

"Hey Natsu, what are you doing here?" She asked, giving me a sideways hug. I looked away, trying to build courage. Here goes nothing...

"Luce I-"

"Oh Natsu I have to tell you something so exciting!" She cut me off, clasping her hands together and looking off in a dream like state. I sighed in disappointment, losing my chance. When I didn't protest she went on happily, kicking her high heels off.

"Ok so me and Gray were talking, and all of a sudden he asked me out. I agreed and later he kissed me! Kissed me- ahem.." She stopped gushing, blushing. Probably cause I was a guy and it would've gotten awkward. "Anyways, he asked me out, and now we're going out!" She took my hands and jumped up and down in excitement, too giddy to care.

I stared at her expressionless, my heart's snap ringing in my ears. She was dating Gray. She was with someone else. She loved him, and he loved her. I couldn't believe it, I went through all of that stress and work to find out she was never mine from the start.

"That's..that's great." I smiled weakly, my energy washed out of me. She smiled at me then suddenly noticed I wasn't acting like my usual self.

"You ok?" She asked, concerned. I hid my face behind my bangs, feeling to weak to hid my emotions. I didn't want her to know, it was too late...I didn't get to her in time.

"I'm just..so happy for you guys." I laughed, but it sounded dead. I can't believe this is happening to me, I feel so humiliated. I shouldn't've ever fallen in love with her. Love is so stupid, so painful. This was worse than being beaten by Erza 1000x over. Was it always going to hurt like this? I hope not.

"Thanks." She smiled. I walked past her like a zombie, opening the door. Before I could close it she stopped me.

"Where are you going?" She asked me in a confused voice.

"Home." I answered, not even bothering to turn around before closing the door behind me. I sighed, covering my face with my hands, only noticing when I was about to sleep did I realize that I had left the rose at Lucy's house.

"Love sucks..."

Poor Natsu :( I felt like doing a sad one(its not that sad xD) lol yep~

I don't like GrayLu(no offense if you do) but whatever:D
