Chapter 1:

Natsu's Stupid Mistake

Lucy Pov.

I had just gotten to the guild a few minutes ago, and I was about to order my breakfast when I heard Natsu yell from across the guild hall at the door, "Hey Lucy!"

"Morning Natsu," I replied with a smile and cheerful voice as he came running straight over to me and took a seat.

"Morning Natsu, Lucy," Mirajane said as she skipped over to us, "What do you two want for Breakfast?"

"Waffles and Orange Juice please," I replied with a smile while I put my elbows on the counter, knitted my fingers together, and rested my chin on top of my hands.

"Your fire eggs and spicy orange juice will do for me as usual," Natsu said as he grinned at Mirajane.

"Coming right up," Mirajane replied then she skipped away as she hummed.

Then Natsu turned to me with a nervous smile and blush appeared on his cheeks as he said, "Hey… Umm… Lucy, are you busy tonight?" Wait is he blushing, and he is getting nervous, he is the bravest guy I know. Whats got the mighty Natsu Dragneel nervous?

"No, why," I asked as I dropped my hands to my sides and turned to look at him.

"I was wondering if you want to grabbed some dinner and maybe we go for a walk afterwards," Natsu stuttered while I watched his eyes look at everything but me.

"You mean like a date," I asked as I stared at him with curiosity.

Then he started blushing even more and he stuttered his answer, "Ye… Yes.."

I was speechless for a moment but when I caught my breath, I said, "Alright, I'll be here at 7 tonight. Don't be late."

"He lllliiiiikkkkeeeessss you," Happy sang in an annoying but cheerful voice as he flew over our heads while laughing his head off.

"Here you go," Mirajane said as she skipped up to us with our breakfast.

"Thanks, Mira, I'll be taken' my meal to go," I said as I felt my cheeks become really warm, "I need to do some writing on my book. Remember 7 o'clock, tonight, don't be late." I stuttered the last part as Mirajane gave me a doggy bag with my food in it. Then I got up and walked out of the guild without another word as I felt everyone stare me. Oh Mavis, Natsu just asked me out... I better pick out the perfect outfit and get ready!

Natsu Pov.

"So did it work," Lisanna asked as she sat next me and I ate my breakfast.

I gulped down my last bite and replied, "Yes."

"Good, I told you my advice would work," Lisanna said as she bounced off the stool, "Now if you need help with anything else, you know where to find me."

Then I grabbed her wrist and I asked, "Can you help me practice kissing? I'm a little nervous and I don't want to mess things up tonight so can you please help me?"

Lisanna looked at me and she blushed as she said, "Sure, I'll help you."

"Thanks Lisanna I knew I could count on you," I replied as smile grow on my face then I pulled her away and took her my house. Lisanna really saved my ass on this one. I hope everything works out tonight.

Lucy Pov.

*TIME SKIP 11hrs 7:40 PM*

It was 7:40pm and I wore my dark purple chiffon spaghetti straps tea length dress and sliver high heels and I looked at the time and sighed. "I wonder why Natsu is late," I asked not really expecting an answer as I sat at the bar on my usual stool looking around while my anxiety raised.

"Well, as I recall he left with Lisanna this morning but I haven't seen either of them since," Mirajane replied and I sighed. Why would he be with Lisanna?

"I'm gonna go check up on him," I said as I got off the stool then ran out of guild and headed straight to Natsu's House. I've got a bad feeling about this.

*TIME SKIP 2 mins 7:42 PM*

When I got to Natsu's house, I was about to knock on the door when I heard Lisanna's voice say, "Natsu, relax, everything will be fine. Lets try to do this again."

"Alright," I heard a Natsu reply then I heard lips come together and pull apart, "How was that?"

"Better," I heard Lisanna answer. I froze as my arm drop to my side and my hand brushed the door which made a slight noise as it fell.

"What the Hell was… Oh shit I'm late," I heard Natsu say as he shuffled across the room and rushed to the door and busted it open, "Lucy?" Then I ran off as I let my tears roll down my cheek and sniffled. Why am I such a fool? I should have known better… He probably used me to make Lisanna jealous and get her instead... How could I fall for something so stupid...I hate myself… I can't stay at guild like this when I love Natsu and he doesn't love me in return… I'm leaving the guild… I'm fucking leaving and I may never come back… It's probably for the best…
