Chapter 1 : The Beginning
I do not own Fairy Tail but I do love the anime
'Thinking'
"Talking"
Lucy's POV
Natsu and Lucy finally got back from a mission worth 80,000 jewel and Natsu was still having motion sickness and Lucy wasn't sure why it hasn't gone away even when they got off the train. "Natsu are you sure its motion sickness and not something else?" I asked in a concerned voice. He just gave me a quick smile before his cheeks puffed back up ready to hurl.
After sometime he was able to say something, "I need help." And fainted immediatly after, i was barley able to catch him and surprisingly he was lighter then when we left for the mission.
Fairy Tail Guild - Normal POV
The guild doors were kicked in and a figure carrying something, no someone walked in. The guild members gasped as Lucy carried in a very pale looking Natsu. "Lucy what happened?" asked a very worried Mira-San. Lucy came in and handed Natsu to Erza to take him to the infirmary inside the guild. "Lucy."Natsu whispered, only Erza, Wendy and Gray could hear him.
"I-Im n-no-not sure he wa-was fine after t-the mission, then we g-got on the train and he wouldnt g-get off afterwards and it still h-hasn't gone away!" Lucy replied trying to hold in the tears that threatened to come.
"Its okay Lucy. Wendy will do everything she can to heal whatever it is that's making Natsu sick." Mira replied with a smile, but her eyes were filled with worry as were the rest of the guild, even Grey who had no shirt or pants on at the moment, "GRAY PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!" I yelled, he looked down and screamed like a little girl seemingly grabbing clothes out of nowhere.
In the Infirmary - Natsu's POV
After Lucy opened the guild doors my eyes started to go fuzzy and i could hear some of the guild members gasp. then lucy handed me to Erza I think, I saw red and silver and felt coldness from her cold armor. "Lucy..." I whispered but I dont think she heard me.
Erza opened the infirmary door and placed me on the bed followed by Wendy saying something to each other, then me but i could'nt hear clearly and drifted into unconsciousness.
Back to the Guild - Lucy's POV
'I hope he'll be okay, no he will be okay Natsu Dragoneel would never leave his nakamas, or me!' I thought to myself feeling Mira's reasuring touch and seeing her hope filled eyes. "I'm sure hell be 100% in no time!" She said forcing a smile. "He would never go down by a simple fever!" Gray said holding the pain he had that he might loose his rival and best friend. I smilled, "Thanks guys im really sure he's alright, he always pulls through for us."
Before i would start crying in front of everyone I left and headed home. 'Natsu you better survive this if not ill bring you back to life and kick our ass for leaving me.' I whispered as i marched on the side of the river heading home.
Natsu's POV
'Lucy I could never leave you, I love you.'
Erza's POV
"Ezra my healing might not be working." Wendy whispered, tears threatening to fall from my eyes, I turned around and said, "Guess well fix him the old fashioned way."
"Erza its okay if you want to cry, no ones here and I'll never tell." Wendy said crying out tears of her own. After she said that I cried hard and for a while to I may lose one of the most amazing people in my life.
Natsu's POV
'Erza, Wendy, minna(1) I'll make it don't cry just watch me, I'll come back in no time.' I saw my family, my father, my favorite memories with happy and most of all Lucy and her amazing smile and beautiful brown eyes, those unbelievable brown eyes. Every now and then I'd wake up, but then i'd go back into unconsciousness catching a few words of a familiar voice crying. 'Lucy don't cry.' I thought.
My dream were some memories I've had most of them were with Lucy and Lucy's happy in them until I saw an image of Lucy crying. "Lucy don't cry!" I said.
Lucy's POV
Its almost been a week since natsu's sickness and everyone would visit him but I would stay with him the entire time.
Ever since natsu said, "Lucy don't cry!" I have stayed with him so when he wakes up i can hug him and tell him 'I knowe you would make it." or 'I've missed you so much!' Because he's been my best friend and will always be my best friend. I'll be there for him like hes been there for me.
This morning Erza, Wendy, Gray, Happy and some other guild member including Master Makarov came to visit with him. His sickness got a little better but its still there and not changing much anymore for better or for worse, I hope hes okay.
Natsu's POV
I feel like my sickness is getting a little better. I wonder how long I've been out. Maybe hours, days, ore even weeks at this point. But it doesn't feel like anything changed that much.
My dreams are different, they're more like nightmares instead. I'm not as dense as everyone thinks. Its almost always the same nightmare, my friends turn on me, I mean with dead, cold, killing intent and i can't stop them from chasing me, my magic is virtually useless. I've tried using my Dragon-Slayer magic but it wont work even though i feel like my body is on fire, but it must be the fever.
Lucy's POV
Not long after the visits Natsu started talking in his sleep. He sometimes freaks me out by saying "Don't kill me, your my family" or "I love you" or even "STAY BACK." During one of his 'Dreams' he used his magic and set the bed on fire but we had Juvia to put it out, but we decided not to move him. The bed with the salamander haired mage slightly chared kept rolling around on the bed. Moving a lot more then usual, 'He must be unconformable for some reason' I thought.
I couldn't take it anymore and I need to get a mission to pay my rent, around 70,000 jewel or more, just in case. "Bye Natsu, I'll see you when you wake up okay." I kissed him on his forehead when he stopped moving and left the infirmary.
In the Guilds main hall - Still Lucy's POV
The bulletin board had eleven jobs on it I picked one closest to my rent.
Help!
Missing ship from port please help us to find any possible survivors
Beware of Sea Monsters- 75,000 Jewel and 2 Silver keys
"Mira-San I'm going on this one alone alright." I said. " Okay Lucy, be careful!" she called as I exited the guild doors.
Natsu's POV
The dreams have finally stopped, I'm still burning up though. I see nothing but black sometimes id hear someone talking this time it was Lucy. "Bye Natsu." Is all I heard I missed everything elses she said after she kissed my forehead. 'Has she been with me all this time?' I thought. In my mind I started crying hard hearing myself say, 'Don't leave! Stay Lucy, DONT LEAVE ME.' Then I felt coldness like I had a bunch of knifes going through my heart. I opened my eyes and heard someone screaming. I heard Eerza yell at me, " Natsu STOP SCREAMING! You're okay! Juvia wasn't here so gray was freezing the flame's you made. You almost burnt down the guild!"
Then it was silent. No noise, no screaming or anything. Even the members on the first floor were quiet. Then I blurted out something that earned me a hit to the head. "WHERE IS LUCY!" I yelled. Erza retorted with a playful, "Shut up." and a smile. "She's fine, she just went on a mission to pay her rent." Said Gray. "you've been out of it for a week and a half."
I thought about what he said, "How long has Lucy been gone?" I asked curious. "About two days, she spent the most part here with you." Said Erza. "Luce..."I whispered, "come home safe, come back to me."
"Natsu you need to rest if you don't want this fever to get worse." Said Wendy. I didn't even notice her, "That would make Lucy sad." I stared at her for a second, 'Thanks for the guilt trip.' "Yeah okay, I get it. GOODNIGHT!" I said, I moved to a clean non-chared bed so I could get comfortable before I changed my mind. Erza, Wendy and Gray left me in the infirmary to tell the guild th good news.
With Erza, Gray and Wendy
"Natsu is much better, he is awake finally." We said smiling.
The guild cheered. "Tonight we celebrate to Natsu's recovery with a party." The master said. Mina-San had the biggest smile, Lucy, who had recently gotten back from her mission, was junping around cheaering, Happy was flying around screaming fish hi commen fraze aand Erza, Gray, Wendy and Gajell showing a giant smile to everyone happy to have their salamander back in action. Or maybe not so soon...
