Even though the first day of school was so good, the second day became worse. It wasn't so serious, but it really kept Lucy distracted.
The online chat with Natsu. That was it. The cause of her stress at the moment. When she and Natsu had classes together, it was hard to concentrate, even worse that he was sitting next to her.
As the days flew by, Lucy chatted more with the others and sometimes even with Natsu, but Gray or Levy was there as well.
When in school, Lucy found herself either keeping a distance from Natsu or ignoring him. She felt really bad, but she couldn't help herself. The boy himself was making her feel like this.
Lucy knew she had to stop ignoring and talk to him more because he'd probably already knew and his feelings could be hurt. But it was too late..
Natsu started ignoring her and wouldn't even talk to her. At lunch he would stay quiet and when they would accidently pass by each other in the hallway, he wouldn't look or talk. When she entered the Fairy Tail chats he would leave right after and that would leave questions in everyone's heads. Questions that only a certain blond could answer.
A week passed and a sunny morning had woken Lucy up for another day of school. She checked her account for any new notifications, but she noticed she had went down a friend. The only person missing from her friend list was Natsu...
That was it. She was ending this nonsense today. Maybe she could accept being ignored, but being taken off as a friend was like him saying they were over as friends in real life.
Lucy had seen Natsu all day, but she waited for the perfect moment. When they were once again walking towards each other in the hallway, Natsu was about to pass by her again she grabbed his wrist, stopping him. "Natsu!"
"Lucy, I can't talk right now!" He had a agitated look on his face, but she could careless. When he tried to go away, she grabbed him and slammed him back onto the lockers, her sudden behavior shocking him. "No! We're talking now!"
Natsu was surprisingly shocked. He had never seen this side of Lucy Heartfilia before. He knew she was angry. He already knew the reason she was angry too. "Okay then! I'm waiting."
Lucy took a breather before she spoke. "Why did you unfriend me!? Maybe I can take the ignoring and the no talking to Lucy thing from you, but this is different."
Natsu's eyes widened, but he couldn't form any words at the moment. "You introduced me into Fairy Tail, but unfriending me just blows it all away. You should know that."
Natsu angrily grabbed both of Lucy's wrist and clutched them tightly. "And you should've known that ignoring a friend is disrespectful and really hurts the other person's feelings when he doesn't know the reason why!"
Natsu was holding on to her tightly and as moments passed, Lucy was feeling her wrists hurting more and more. He was snapping her wrists in two, but he didn't notice until Natsu realized she was on the verge of tears. He immediately let go and stared at Lucy who was holding on to her wrists with a pained look.
Now he was the one feeling bad. "I'm sorry, Luce! I really am!" She stared at him like he was a monster and turned away. "N-No, leave me alone!"
"I want to help you!"
"I think you HELPED quite enough already!"
"Luce, your being a real jerk!
"Oh, I'm the one being the jerk! Explain to me, Natsu! How am I being a jerk?"
Natsu couldn't take it anymore. On the first day, he thought she was fun and such, but now he's really pissed. "Well then you blond haired prick, let me tell you why! First, you seem to be getting quiet around me, then you decide to ignore me and keep your distance. If you hated me that badly, you should've told me instead of doing those things! And your calling me the jerk! Don't blame others for you faults, princess!"
Lucy couldn't say anything to him anymore. Why? Because he was right. Everything Natsu said was true. It's her fault that they're having this arguement. She ignored him and keeped herself away from him.
When he turned to walk away, she knew that she had to say something. Anything. "Natsu, I'm so-"
"No, Luce! No! Don't be like those people who apologize after they realized the truth. Just no! Just leave it as it is! Goodbye, Luce! I'm going to stay out of your life because it's already obvious that's what you want." He walked away until he was out of her sight. She collasped on the ground and put her head down, some tears spilling.
What has she done? She should've told him right way, but she had to do all this to him.

Lucy arrived home after being excused from school early. Actually ten minutes before school ended. With her wrist like this, it became hard for her to write or do anything without hurting herself. She lied and said she slipped in the bathroom. She didn't tell Erza, Levy, or anyone else that Natsu did this. They would make her and Natsu feel worse. And she didn't want to make that pink haired boy feel even more worse than she had already made him feel.
Lucy turned on her laptop and went to the site. She knew that none of her Fairy Tail friends would be there, but she didn't care. She logged in and noticed that HE was online. But how? It's not like he came out early too. It's like fate had given her another chance to make things right.
Good thing her wrists were slowly healing, so atleast she had the ability to type. She tested her luck and went for it.

"Natsu!" Lucy screamed and picked up her phone. She noticed that school was over and her friends would be on their way home. She needed to call someone, so she called her best friend first.
"Come on, Levy-chan! Pick up!"
After a few moments, a voice picked up. "Hi, Lu-chan!"
"Levy-chan, where are you!?"
"I'm walking home, but with Erza, Gray, and Gajeel because we want to check up on you! Why?"
"Nevermind that! I'll meet up with you guys!"
"Okay, but tell us what's wrong!"
"It's Natsu!"
"What happened!?"
"I don't know, but something happened! I'll tell you when we meet up!"
Just like that, Lucy hung up and left her home, tears running down her eyes. "Please be okay!"
A/N: The feeling when you go back to school. Updates will probably be longer, but not like month-length long, but like week-length. I'll try to update fast, but I have to deal with homework and other things. I'll post Oneshots sometimes when I'm between writing chapters because I need to take a break and write something else.
Just leave your thoughts and all that needs to be said. ^_^
Till next time Fairy Tail/NaLu fans!
