Just a story I wanna get out of my head. I'll be updating my other stories as well. sorry for the long break! Had to focus on my SAT's
Laxus pov
I opened my eyes to see her staring at me- my angel, my savior, my Lucy. God, I could never stop looking at her once I got started. I remember when I would wake up next to her and look at her for hours until she would awaken. I would admire her and ask my self what I did to deserve an angel such as her. I was the complete opposite of her, I was tainted, evil and a waste. Yet, she's the purest of the pure- beautiful in so many ways, inside and out.
I saw little wet drops fall down on her face. She's crying? Why? I frowned, she should never have that expression on her face; it didn't suit her, the way her eyebrows would clench together, the tears forming under the chocolate brown eyes that he'd come to love so much- the way her lips would bend down while soft whimpers escaped them. But most of all, I hate the way her eyes lose the happiness they always had- being replaced by deep burning sadness and sorrow. I used to call people who cried weak, but I could not have been farther from the truth. She taught me that people who cry are the strongest of kind, because to openly cry and admit you're hurting is one of the hardest thing someone could do; to open your heart, to show your emotions. I thought I had all I ever wanted, I thought I knew it all; but she taught me- she showed me what I was missing.
I swear, if Natsu made her cry by calling her fat again, I'll fry his ass to next week. I tried lifting my hand so I could wipe her tears away, but I could not. My hand felt limp and heavy; and like a flipped had been switched pain racked my whole body. I screwed my eyes shut and screamed in pain. I-I remember now, I had taken a mission that turned out to be a trap arranged by my dad to get my dragon lacrima. Lucy tried to warn me, but I didn't listen, I let my anger get the best of me.
flashback
"I told you this was a trap!" Lucy shouted "but nooooo, you didn't listen." I growled at her not appreciating her nagging as of the moment, enemies; a group of ten mages stood in front of us. Normally I would be amused and amazed when Lucy would reprimand me but now wasn't the time. I felt her hand slap the back of my head, I tuned to her; disbelief in my eyes. "Don't you growl at me, Laxus Dreyar or you'll find yourself sleeping in the dog house for the next week." she shouted while putting her hands to her waist. Fuck, she scared me and turned me on when she was like this. After all she did have all 13 Golden keys, the sabertooth chick- yukiro- I think gave up being a mage and gave her keys to Lucy. Last I heard she was mated to Eucliffe
"We'll talk after we finish this alright, lucy" Calling her by her real name instead of my usual Blondie nickname; hoping it would get me out of the deep blue after this fight. She scoffed and crossed her arms, but not disagreeing with me. Well, that's a good sign- i think.
i closed my eyes and gathered my magic, I wanted to finish this in one fell swoop and talk to Lucy after. Maybe some hot make up sex, he purred inwardly I like the sound of that. Breath in breath out, gather the magic inside-
"thunder dragons roar" I opened my mouth and released my magic. Feeling greatly satisfied by the destruction of his enemies. I looked at Lucy hoping to find her amazed like every other time I used my magic. To my disappointment she wasn't even looking, way to deflate my ego, Lucy. I sighed and made my way to the fallen enemies. I'd make it up to her later. I gathered them and tied them as fast as I can so I can attend to more important matters, namely his fiance. Not for long though, soon her name would be Lucy Dreyar. Oh, how I love the sound of that. I smiled and tuned to look at her- only she wasn't there in her place stood the bastard that ruined my life, Ivan; my father. I felt panic rise in my chest, where was she!?
"WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE TO LUCYT?! WHERE IS SHE?!" I saw him frown in confusion. WHAT THE FUCK WAS GOING ON! I saw him open his mouth but in a flash I was in front of him. I grabbed him by the neck and lifted him till he's feet was a good five inches off the ground. "I ASKED YOU A FUCKING QUESTION! WHERE IS SHE?" He whimpered.
"What are you talking about, im-" I cut him off by tightening my hold on his neck. "Laxus, you're hurti-" He tried once more.
"I DON'T GIVE A FUCK IF I'M HURTING YOU" I saw his eyes widen in fear and hurt. Something wasn't right, his instincts were screaming at him that something was wrong. Like, what the fuck would his father, who didn't care about him from the very begging, get hurt by something he said. Physically I can understand but-. I growled once more. I gathered my magic and let it course through my hand. His eyes widened and he screamed in pain. His body convulsing as my magic coursed through his body. he gripped and scratched at my arms, trying to pry my hands from his neck. With renewed vigor I let my magic course through my arms again, more powerful than the last. He screamed louder. After an hour of going through the same routine asking where his mate was, him electrocuting his father. Until he felt that Ivan was on the verge of dying. I sneered and pulled his hair making my way towards the exit. I stopped mid step when I heard clapping. I looked behind me and saw another Ivan. What the fuck. dropping the hair of the Ivan that I was pulling I turned around and faces him completely. Last time i checked my bastard of a father didn't have cloning magic. I opened my mouth to ask him where my mate was when he beat me to the punch.
"If your looking for your mate don't ask me, foolish boy of mine." He laughed sadistically "Your mate was here the whole time, and you were torturing her." What the hell was he talking about? I turned to look at the first Ivan and what i saw made bile rise in my mouth. In place of the first Ivan was lucy. She was deathly pale. her right leg twitching. My eyes widened I did that to her!
Rushing to her side and cradling her head in his lap "Lucy, baby, I'm sorry. I-I didn't- I didn't know if I knew I wouldn't have- Wouldn't have tortu tortured you" My words gushing out in broken whimpers as I held her prone figure while crying. I heard a manic laugh once more and looked at my father. I saw red. I gently laid lucy's head on the ground before standing up and glaring at the bastard in front of him. "See what you did, boy! whatever you touch death follows! That's what you did with you mother, not that I care about her but you killed her. Your own birth was a mistake!" My magic, I couldn't control it. Magic gushed out of me and random lightning arcs danced across the cave we were in. I saw ivan widen his eyes before he ran in the opposite direction. Then, I released my magic and the cave came crashing down.
end of flashback
My eyes widened when I remember what happened. Then I looked at her, really looked at her. It wasn't tears that was dripping it was blood; behind her a boulder sat crushing her legs. With new found determination I tried my best to stand up ignoring the pain but i simply could not. Then I saw it, a boulder was crushing my right arm and my right leg. I struggled to remove it, not for me- for Lucy. So I could help her. "Save your strength, Laxus" my eyes focused on her.
"Lucy, I'm so sorry. I din't know I was-" He stopped when he saw her smile. Her white teeth covered in blood. "It's okay Laxus. I kn-" She whimpered slightly "I know you didn't do it on purpose. I forgive you." I felt tears prick my cheeks. I'm a monster. I almost killed my own mate. I buried us here and set our fate. As much as I want to believe we'll get out of this the reality was we're stuck here- and even if we did get out, we would be cripples. he put his free hand over his eyes. God, I set my mates death. My fathers right, everything I touch dies. I'm a fucking mess I don't deserve he-. "Hey, stop that shit right now, Laxus! I can see you blaming yourself. I said I forgive you. that's that. Don't give me that look! I spent a whole year convincing you that you're good enough for me I know how your mind works!" I looked at her in shock. Then I laughed, I laughed so hard that you wouldn't believe we were buried six feet underground. Only her, only my Lucy would scold me even if death was just a knock away from the both of us. Thanks to me. I wish that if there was such thing as heaven that Lucy would go there, even if that would mean I would go down below. She deserves heaven.
"Hey, don't think so hard. You're gonna pop a vein that way and end up dying on me" I was about to respond that we were dead anyway when she silenced me with a glare "yeah I know we're stuck here. But you know me, I won't go down without a fight. I have a plan. do you trust me?" of course she does. She always has a plan. While he was the act now think later kind of guy. Lucy, like I said before was the opposite of me, she liked to bid her time thinking her way through a fight- Her plans saved my sorry ass more times than I can count. "Yeah, Blondie I trust you- with everything- with my life" I said softly while looking at her; trying to show her my love and devotion through my eyes.
"Alright then close your eyes." Confusion. What?
"I don't think that will hel-"
"Just do it! You said you trusted me then do it!" I closed my eyes and waited. What could she have planned? I couldn't help but open my eyes when I felt an influx of magic gather in the air. I looked at her and saw her chanting- in front of her, her thirteen gold keys lay in a circular pattern- they were shinning. Her hair was floating as if they were being carried by the wind.
flashback
We were walking home. I frowned, usually my Blondie would be chatting my ears off right now. Not that I minded her talking too much, I love her voice- it was relaxing. If given a choice to listen between my sound pod and Lucy, I would chose her every time. I stopped, softly grabbed her chin and steered her head in my direction, so we were looking at each other "What's wrong, Lucy?" using her name to show her I was serious. She was about to reply when I cut her off "Don't say your fine. I know that your're not. I can tell somethings bothering you, so please just tell. I'll do everything I can to make it go away. Please, lucy, I love you more than the world itself. You don't have to through this alone." Maybe my speech was a little over the line, but I meant every word I said. I won't let her hide from me. She stripped my walls apart showing me that I could trust her with my darkest secrets and I would do the same for her.
I heard her breath hitch "It's just- you know Yukino, right? The one who gave me her keys."
"Yeah, the saber chick. What's she got to do with this?" I swear, If that bitch said something to hurt Lucy I'd kill all of them. Wouldn't put it past her to do something like that after all that minerva bitch tortured her. Even though saber and fairy tail became allies, I still hated them for what that bitch did to Lucy.
"The day I completed the gold keys the spirit king showed himself. He told me that if I were to open the gates I would be granted one wish"
"I sense a "BUT" here" she nodded
"But the wish couldn't be for myself-" She stopped talking and started to nibble on her nails awhile looking down at the ground, an action she does when she's nervous.
I groaned in frustration "Just tell me, Lucy! Stop delaying! Why can't you use this wish for yourself?"
She was silent. Frustration bubbling inside me, I was about to ask her again when she replied.
"Because I would die" My blood froze. Die, her? No fucking way. Lucy not sensing my panic continued "the magic needed to open all the gate keys would suck the life out of me." I snarled grabbed the back of her neck. A domineering gesture of a dragon to it's mate.
"YOU'RE. NEVER. LEAVING. ME. BEHIND. YOU GOT THAT? EVEN IN FUCKING DEATH, I WOULD GO HELL AND BACK TO DRAG YOUR ASS BACK HERE, YOU GOT THAT! PROMISE ME THAT YOU'LL NEVER LEAVE ME! FUCKING PROMISE!" she looked up at me no ounce of fear,
"I promise, Laxus Dreyar, that I would never leave you"
end of flashback
"NO NO NO NO NO! LUCY YOU PROMISED" Fear encased my heart when I realized what she was about to do.
"I wish upon the stars. Hand me thy guidance. Constellations above heed my call" The keys started glowing brighter and brighter and brighter until we were encased in white. My eyes were burning when I tried to keep them open, but it was too much. I closed my eyes then nothing.
"Wake up sleepy head" I opened my eyes- my head on her lap. I looked at our surrounding and found everything to be white. I looked at her again, she was fading. I shot up immediately. "No, Lucy, you can't die. You promised. YOU FUCKING PROMISED. I THOUGHT CELESTIAL MAGES ALWAYS KEEP THEIR PROMISES" I saw hurt flash in her eyes but I was to far to care. I'm a selfish bastard and if harsh words are gonna keep her with me then so be it. Then I saw her eyes harden. No.
"This is the first and last time i'll break a promise, you got that lightning ass? First and last!" She brought her lips down on mine for one last kiss"Goodbye, Laxus". I started blacking out, but with one last push I grabbed her shoulder and bit her- transfering my magic, marking her mine.
Screw hell or heaven if she thinks I'd let her leave!
after all she fucking promised and as her mate it's his duty to help her keep her promises.
