Chapter 1 Nobody Cares

Lucy's POV

After another day of work I went back to the guild. I wasn't with the team so I got the whole reward. As I was going inside I heard the conversation that changed my life forever. It was Natsu and Gray talking. And it was about me. It went like this.

"Why would you do that Natsu, to Lucy of all people, didn't you care about her"Gray said,

"No I didn't, she was just a replacement for Lisanna, now that she's back I don't need Lucy anymore"said Natsu

"It's not like breaking her heart is enough, you have to kick her out of the team too!"Gray was shouting now. I looked around and everyone in the guild was looking at him. Then Lisanna came over to Natsu and kissed him full on the lips. I tried to keep the tear from coming out of my eyes. Until I remembered Gray, he stood up to Natsu for me. So I decided to stick around.

"Who needs a weakling in the strongest team in Fairy tail" Lisanna said.

Gray was fuming. He looked around the room and asked "Hey everyone, do you all feel the same about Lucy." I peeped in closer and saw everyone nod their heads. The only person who didn't was master and, of course Gray.

Even Erza nodded, she went up to Gray and said"I think this is the best way to help her become stronger, I heard she went on a lot of solo missions lately and got every reward so she can keep paying her rent"

That was it! If no one cares about me in this guild then I should just quit.

I ran as fast as I could to my apartment. Suddenly a hand grabbed my shoulder. As I turned around I saw it was Gray. He wiped the tear ,that I never knew about, from my eye.

"I'm sorry for what you've heard, I wasn't able to keep your place in the team" he said

"It's alright at least you're still there"I said to him

"No I quit too, I told them that "If Lucy's not there then I don't need to be here anymore"

I was surprised. I didn't think anyone could care about me that much in this guild.

"Lucy..."he whispered

"What" I asked him

"Let's quit the guild together, leave town, have a new start because. . . I like you. A lot"

*silence*

"It's alright you don't have to ans...

He stopped because I just kissed him on the cheek.

"I'm sorry I didn't notice how much you liked me, the only thing I ever cared about was Natsu and now I don't even have that anymore. Let's do it! Meet me at the front of the guild so we can tell the master about it. I know he still cares."

"See you tomorrow"he said as he ran towards his house.

"How come I never new. It was Gray all this time." I was so happy that I skipped on the way home. I forgot how sad I was a while ago. Now I just can't wait for tomorrow.

Gray"s POV

I ran all the way home with a goofy grin on my face.

Lucy's now mine. I can't believe she felt the same way.

Tomorrow will be the best day of my life.

Goodbye Fairy tail. Goodbye Team. Goodbye Natsu.

Don't worry I will take good care of her.

Better than Natsu ever will.

Now my Lucy will never cry again.
