"W-why is this happening…" (Y/n) whispered as she sat in a little chair upstairs in her room. She listened to the fight that was happening downstairs; she heard her mother scream as her father whacked her with a pan. The thuds and screams suddenly stopped, just as you thought it was over you started to remove your hands from the sides of your head.

Your eyes widened in pure fear as you heard your father throw the pan on the body of your mother and say, "Good Riddance, I'm coming for you next, (y/n) as soon as I dispose of this trash. I'll be up there in 1 hour." You quickly scurried around your room for your (f/c) suitcase. Once you found it you sloppily threw clothes and important items in your bag, you grabbed your phone, and wallet which currently had 400$ in it from jobs and chores.

45 minutes had passed by and you heard your father grab kitchen items and speak in a low voice which you couldn't make out the words properly. About 5 minutes later you heard footsteps coming up the stairs, you grabbed your bag, phone, and wallet and flew to the window and opened it with ease and without thinking twice, jumped. It was a 15 foot drop but you didn't care all you wanted was to get as far away possible from the psycho father in your house.

You ran at least 4 or 5 miles down the street and called for a taxi to bring you to the nearest airport. Once you got there you paid for a cheap ticket to God knows where and boarded. It was a 5 hour flight so you decided to catch up on sleep because while you were still at home your parents fought at least every hour or two. So you only got at least 30 minutes of sleep, the rest of the night was filled with listening to your parents scream and yell. Your mom was the only one that supported you and actually loved you; your father just didn't give a shit about you or what you did. You began thinking about all this and slowly fell asleep.

You were woken by a gentle shake; you slowly woke up and searched your surroundings. You had fallen asleep on a young boy's shoulder he looked to be about 15 or 16, my age; he had odd rosy pink spiky hair, big bright onyx eyes with very handsome features. You got lost in checking out his face and didn't notice him waving his hand in front of your face. You caught your surroundings and started turning red. He laughed, "Hey, it's alright. You were tired, I didn't mind at all actually..." The boy said, rubbing the back of his neck while his face turned a light shade of pink.

"Then why did you wake me…?" You questioned in a tired scratchy voice.

"Oh the plane is landing in 30 minutes and I didn't want you to over sleep and be sent on the next flight!" The boy said cheerfully.

"That's very thoughtful of you, uh..."

"Natsu, Natsu Dragneel!" The boy exclaimed.

"Oh, I'm (y/n), (y/n)... (l/n)…" You replied almost not wanting to say your last name because it reminded you of your psychotic father.

"Hey, are you alright…?" Natsu took my chin and lifted my face up to meet his eyes, he stared deep into my (e/c) eyes and then carefully let go of my chin.

"Yeah… everything's alright; just trying to get away from someone I don't like is all." Natsu looked at me suspiciously.

"Who…?" he questioned slowly.

"My father…" you said with hesitation and then went back to staring at the floor

"Why would you ever want to get away from your father?!" Natsu whisper-yelled in your ear.

"Because… He's psychotic. He… He…" You started to tear up in front of the boy.

"It's okay… Shh… It'll be alright." He wrapped his arm around you and rubbed your left arm comfortingly.

"If you want to, come with me back at the airport."

"B-but aren't y-you here with someone…?" You said trying not to spill more tears.

"Nope, I went all alone because I only had enough money for one ticket, and I needed to see someone very important very fast…" He said arm still wrapped around your back.

"So if you want to, we can talk about this back at the airport… Only if you want to though…"

"Sure. That'd be nice..."

You arrived at the airport with the boy, but you ran into his friends. They all greeted him with a big group hug, "Hey what're you guys doing here?" The rosy-haired boy said in a shocked-surprised voice.

"We just kind of wanted to welcome you back after the long trip you went on, you were gone for at least two and a half weeks man!" A jet black-haired guy said fist-bumping Natsu.

"Oh and by the way, you missed 3 tests, 1 speech and at least 20 homework assignments!" A blonde girl said nervously scratching the back of her neck. Natsu sighed as he looked to his friends who were eyeing you suspiciously.

"Oh! This is (y/n)! I met her on the plane on the way back." He smiled down at you. You looked down, trying to hide your tear-stained face and gave a small wave and said a small "Hi." As you continued to look at the ground below you.

"She sure is the shy one isn't she?" The same black-haired boy said.

"Well of course she's going to be shy! She's all on her lonesome like I was!" You started to cry again when Natsu reminded you that you had nobody left that supported you.

"Good job Natsu! You made (y/n) cry!" A scarlet-haired woman ran over to you and put her arm around you.

"HEY! I WAS SUPPORTING HER!" Natsu yelled as he shoved the girl away and put his arm around you.

"NO, I WANTED TO SUPPORT HER!" The girl yelled back.

They both got into a big fight and that's when the black haired boy came over and comforted you while Natsu and the girl were busy fighting over who was going to comfort you. You sobbed into the boy's side, his arm slowly rubbing your left arm, occasionally patting it. He hugged you and you felt a little bit better and stopped crying. Meanwhile, Natsu and the scarlet haired girl were still fighting until security came and broke up the fight, Natsu walked back to a black haired boy hugging you. He ran up to the boy and shoved him away.

"Gray! What did you do to her while I was gone?!" Natsu yelled and looked down to you with worried eyes.

"I made her feel better." The boy known as Gray retorted.

"As long as you didn't hurt her. Don't hurt her or I'll pulverize you, little icy bastard." Natsu said whispering the last part, you giggled a little since you heard him say it.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT ME YOU PERVERTED PYRO!?" Gray walked over and pushed up his sleeve as he got in Natsu's face.

"ME A PERVERT?! I'M NOT THE ONE WHO STRIPS IN FRONT OF EVERYONE AT SCHOOL!" Natsu yelled back feeling confidence wash over him. You doubled over laughing when Natsu said this.

"WELL AT LEAST I DON'T…. Uhm… what do you do…?" Gray was at a loss of insults as Natsu took the win in the argument.

"HAHA I WON BRAIN FROZEN BASTARD!" Natsu cheered as he danced around the airport. He then got a glance at the clock and froze.

"Natsu…?" The blonde girl said, "Are you alright?"

"Uhm yeah… I just kinda…. Noticed what time it was and yeah…. I'm perfectly fine Lucy…" Natsu said as he thought about what his dad was going to say when he got home, because his dad knows it wouldn't have taken Natsu this long to get home.

The scarlet haired girl glanced at the clock; she also froze at the sight of the time. "It's 8:49 PM, Well Got to go guys! I'll see you tomorrow!" She said running off into the cluster of people trying to leave the building.

"BYE ERZAAAA!" Gray and Lucy yelled in unison as they tried to shake Natsu out of his trance.

-_Time skip_-

You and Natsu walked out of the airport and departed with Lucy and Gray after a short goodbye, luckily Natsu didn't live to far from the airport, so you walked back to his place.

After about walking in 10 minutes of silence, Natsu spoke up.

"Um… so… I guess since you were just trying to get away from someone you have nowhere to go… Am I correct?" Natsu said, trying not to sound creepy.

"Yes… That's correct…" You said looking down tapping your fingers together.

"Hey." He grabbed your chin and made it look up at his face, your (h/c) hair swished as he made the action.

"Tell me what's wrong." He said staring into my eyes sternly.

"Do I have to…?" You asked looking back at his eyes as you tried to pull your head out of his grasp.

"Yes. It will make you feel better." He implied.

"Okay, fine, if you say so." You said warily.
