A/N: Yooo~! Enjoy the double chapter update this week. Who knows? Maybe I can do triple. Yah and this story would last until the 15th chapter. I already set the scenes, the proper plot and drew the scenario for each idea. But you can still try suggesting stuff. Oh and I really appreciate your reviews, follows and favorites. Trust me, this story is going to be a bit heartbreaking in the some of the chapters, but you will squeal in joy on the last. I always do happy endings, so don't ya'll worry.
Plus this chapter was not beta-read. I apologize for the wrong grammar and mistakes. This week is actually EXAM WEEK but I still had a chance to slip onto my computer and update for you people. EnjoY~!
Chapter Three - Sting's Reason
After hearing those words, Lucy gasped. Sting looked down on the carpeted floor, not wanting to meet Lucy's eyes. Even though he can't look at them directly, he felt the intensity of her stare. Though from one's perspective, Lucy felt sadness pang in her heart. They both left their guilds. "Curious much, blondie? Fine I'll tell you everything. Just don't give me those eyes. They're bothering me" he said, annoyed. Lucy nodded and listened. She wants to know much more about what happened, though she can't really tell why.
Sting cocked an eyebrow, wondering why she really wanted to know. But instead of an answer, Lucy just gave him such intimidating eyes. He sighed in defeat, he really can't resist those eyes."I was on my way to the guild, when that bastard Orga suddenly appeared and dragged me there, in a painful way. When we both reached the guild, a lot of members glared at me and I wanted to punch the lights out of them yet...Master or should I say, Jiemma appeared. He told me to..." he blushed furiously, "strip and...remove my guild mark. That's where I went all crazy and attacked them. Rogue fought them, too. Unfortunately, the crappy Minerva erased my guild mark by force and threw me off the guild. So I made my way here to talk to Jude Heartfilia and pay him my debt. Only to find out that you, blondie, is his daughter" he said coolly this time.
Lucy's eyes widened. "Wait...Wait...WAIT! You have a debt on my father?! What the hell?!" she shrieked. Sting rolled his eyes, this girl is way too noisy and somehow her voice is too ear-piercing. And he just said the answer to her question, seriously, what's wrong with her?! Lucy, though, stared at him in disbelief, waiting for an answer. Sting just returned her long stare. She waited...and waited...and waited...Until she finally groaned in frustration. "If you're going to be philosophical every minute, can't you just let it go? I'm just being curious here!"
"Give me some time to explain. You're so impatient!" he said calmly, but he was sure a vein already popped on both their heads. Lucy chilled a little, but didn't remove the sharp stare at him. Her big round chocolate brown eyes were focused on him, and Sting couldn't help but stare back. Lucy, on the other hand, was blushing terribly inside. His deep blue eyes were hypnotizing, and it's like looking through the wide oceans. From one's perspective, you can see them all fidgety all of a sudden. Awkward silence might be the best choice of words to describe what Lector felt right now. Actually, he felt ignored by the fact that this story is unfortunately not about him. (A/N: Sorry Lector T^T). Fortunately for Lector and Lucy, Sting was the first one to break it. "Anyways...That debt is pretty big. In fact, I owe him my life. If it wasn't for your dad, I wouldn't be even walking right now. He saved my life when I am on the verge of death. He took me in this mansion, kept talking about you for hours, and he even prevented me from joining Sabertooth. He said I should just join Fairy Tail, where his daughter grew up to be a fine lady to care about her friends. I wondered where his daughter is, so I asked. And all he said was 'I hope'. Eh, I had no idea what he meant, so I just nodded. A few weeks passed and I decided to join Sabertooth. I said I would return the debt sooner or later" Sting looked down on the ground, finally escaping Lucy's eyes. She looked teary, and Sting forced himself to stop.
Lector stared at them from a meter afar. He hated it when Sting suddenly gets emotional, it's just so out of character. Plus the red exceed felt crying when he sees Sting getting all soft on himself. There had been problems about Sting and his emotions towards himself, other people, specially, Lector. Yet the exceed helped him cope up with such things. Lector's train of thoughts stopped when he saw the blonde closed her eyes in vain. Lector tried his best to put his confident face on. And he's pretty sure Sting would just tease her about being a crybaby. But he predicted wrong...
Right there in front of the said cat, is Sting trying his best to comfort the now-crying blonde. Sting glanced at him and his eyes were saying "Lector come over here and help me!". Lector shrugged confidently, hesitating to help the blonde, but did anyways. Now they were both listening uncomfortably to the blonde's words. "I-I can't believe he said that...F-father said that...He actually said I g-grew up as a fine lady with F-fairy Tail. After all these y-years, he finally accepted m-my path...Then again, I can't a-apologize...I'm sorry...I'm sorry, DADDY!" she sobbed, hopelessly.
Sting mentally snorted, but he just blinked on reality. He rubbed the back of his neck and sighed. "Um...Okay...I'm sorry for bringing that up...I guess? Anyways, blondie I think since I sa─" He was cut off when Lucy's fist was punched on his face. Lucy pulled her arms away, glaring daggers at him. He groaned in pain. "Ouch what the heck did I do?!" Sting whined. Lector face palmed. 'Even if Sting-kun is a naive jerk sometimes, he's still the best' he just thought so he won't hurt the feelings of his partner. 'If he even has feelings...' Lector shrugged.
"Way to ruin the mood, idiot!" Lucy yelled, but calmed her self down in a matter of seconds. She sighed and decided to forget everything. "Y-you know what?! Forget everything I said today! After all, you don't, you won't and wouldn't understand anyways. But then again, you still have the debt to my father, which is switched to me. And saving my life isn't worth it because of your attitude and...stupidity!" Lucy slyly said, a plan forming in her evil mind. Sting gulped, he hated it when people say stuff in a smart tone. Lucy turned her back on him, and grinned creepily so the two wouldn't see. "So...I think I would have to give you an offer you can't decline".
And what would that offer be? Find out in the next chapter of Forever's Not Enough. I hope you liked this chapter and I apologize for the OOC-ness and to Lector, who I think I ignored in the last chapter. Sorry I don't respond much to reviews, but my silence means I appreciate them. Please tell me my mistakes, your suggestions and kind reviews~!
Thanks for following and adding this story to your favorites~!
