"Why are you suddenly ignoring me?!"

"I'm not...you just think I am."

I came to an halt.

"Is it because of...her?"I questioned

Everything came to a stop.

The world started spinning.

Until-

-x-

Lucy woke up covered in cold sweat.I haven't had that dream in a while.I snorted.

"I don't care about him anymore,he was just a bastard."she muttered under her breath and jumped out of bed for the start of a new day.

But she didn't know that this was going to be one of the worst days of her entire life.

-x-

"What has gotten into you?" Natsu asked her, furious.

"Nothing," Lucy replied quickly.

"Luce, you stepped on Lisanna's foot and walked away. Surely that was nothing."

"Do you like her?" Lucy asked.

"You're changing the subject," Natsu said.

"Do. You. Like. Her?" she asked again.

He scratched the back of his neck. "Yes. And what does this have to do with anything?"

"I knew it," she said inaudibly. She could feel the world in front of her crashing down,as all the depressing memories of the past filled her felt her heart shattering into a thousand pieces and got stomped on by the boy she loved. Natsu.

She should've seen the signs. There were warning bells. But she didn't notice because she was too busy falling. She had promised herself to not fall in love. Not ever again. But she still didn't listen.

"What?"

"Nothing," she said quickly. She needed to get out of here now. "Good luck with her."

And with that, she walked away.

Locking yourself in your room isn't the healthiest thing to do.

But Lucy didn't care anymore. Not after getting her heart stomped on.

Natsu and Lucy were best friends. Ever since that fateful bike accident. Little by little, she could feel herself falling. And then, she finally landed. Only to find her heart shredded into a million pieces.

What hurt most was this wasn't the first time. This was where she drew the line. All the time Natsu had been crushing on other girls, she had been falling. And as cliché as her life sounded, it hurt.

"Lucy, come out. You have to eat," Cana called.

She could hardly speak up a reply. "I'm fine."

"No, you're not."

"Just go away."

"Fine."

-x-

It has already been five months but life still wasn't easy. But then, when will it ever be?

Lucy avoided Natsu like a plague and soon enough, their friendship turned into dust. As if it was never there in the first place.

Lucy was quite okay with this arrangement. After all, she was the one who started it. But if she were to be honest with herself, she wasn't. As much as she hated to admit it, she wanted her best friend back.

One morning, on the last day of the finals, things changed.

She was running late. She overslept. Cana had gone early, something about a drinking project. She didn't have a car. Only a bike.

Lucy had never used it anymore since the first day of school. After that, it was always Natsu who brought her to school.

Taking deep breaths, she jumped onto the abandoned bike and pedaled as fast as she could, not wanting to be late.

She felt the wind in her face and it had never felt so good. She missed this feeling.

Well, she had only missed it until she ran into someone. Again.

The person sprawled across the ground groaned in ,it wasn't wasn't ready to meet him yet.

"I'm really really sorry!"she said as she helped up the mysterious stranger.

But to her surprise the 'stranger' turned out to be Gray,one of the few friend Natsu introduced to on the first day.

"G-gray."she exclaimed truly surprised."What are you doing here?"

"Oh Lucy,what a coincidence."he said."You know Natsu is quite worried about you."

"I don't care about him."

"Admit it,you do."

"NO I DONT." She shouted as tears started rolling down her face.

After a few minutes,Gray had the courage to speak up.

"You know that idiot really misses you."

"I know."

"Then why don't you try to talk to him?"

"I will." She said and hurriedly got on her bike to go meet Natsu.

This is just like last time,but this time I'll not give up

Natsu here I come!
