I know I know! I didn't think I'd have time to post this till Friday but here I am! So please enjoy minna!
LUCY POV
(Beginning of the wedding)
The music begins playing in the church. Madurai motions for me to start walking through the doors, which are now open. I keep my head down. I don't want to look at my future husband. I honestly wish I never have to see him again.
When I make it to the front of the crowd I turn to face Sawarr. If I look down I can see him so I look up. The minister starts talking before handing me a paper. I look down at it to see what I am supposed to say. I almost gag. I'm not going to be able to say this with out throwing up.
"Now it is time for the couple to say their vows."
"My be loved Lucy. I have loved you since the day we met when we were young. You have always been hot. But now you are just glorious." Duke Sawarr continues talking. I think he is trying to be seductive… it's not working. The truth is I want to curl up in a ball and throw up repeatedly. I want to forget this man and the pain that I have to bare when I'm around him. I want to be with my friends, Erza, Gray, Levy, Gajeel, Juvia, Mira, and all the others at FairyTail. But most of all I want to be with Natsu. I can't stand being away from him for so long.
"And Lucy, your vows now."
I sigh and look down at my papers. "My handsome gorgeous Duke. You are s-so caring and compassionate. I lo-love you w-with all my hear-heart and I never want to- to leave your side." I can barley read the paper anymore. I have tears streaming down my face and I am trying not to call him what I really want to.
I'm about to continue when I hear the doors slam open. I look over and see Natsu, Happy, Erza, and Gray come in followed by my other closest friends. I feel hope but I know that I can't have any. I can't let them get involved with me. They are too important to me. If they got hurt I don't know what I would do.
"What are you doing?" Sawarr yelled from next to me. I keep my eyes glued to my feet. I don't want to meet any of my friend's eyes.
"We're here to ask our friend a few questions before she gets married." Erza says. She sounds as strong as ever.
"Ask them and I will answer!" My *gag* fiancé *gag* yells across the room.
Natsu shakes his head. "No" He says firmly yet quietly. I love it when he does that. "We will ask Lucy questions without you in the room." He finished a little louder.
The Duke takes a deep breath before answering. "Fine, but I'll need to take one of you as a hostage just incase you get any ideas."
"You can take Juvia." Juvia says. She will probably just turn into water to get away from him.
Sawarr shakes his head. "The other blue headed girl. I'll take her."
I can see Levy get tense when he says that. "What? No." Gajeel says defensively before stepping in front of the girl. I know that they have feelings for each other. The only other person that seems to know is Mira. Levy knows too but Gajeel is kind of in denial. I smirk anyway.
"It's ok. You guys talk to Lu-chan. He wont hurt me." Levy says with a smile. I admirer her for the bravery she shows in the toughest situations.
"He better not." Gajeel mutters. Levy blushes a little as she steps forward.
Sawarr releases me then grabs Levy's small wrists. I walk over to Natsu and the others. We step out into the entry room. "I didn't expect to see you guys here." I say quietly.
Before anyone else can speak Natsu hugs me tightly and lifts my feet off the floor slightly. I smile and gently hug him back. "What are you doing here?" Natsu asks.
I gulp, "I'm…. I'm getting married."
"Why?" Cana asks. I've never seen her so sober.
"I have too." I state calmly.
"You don't have to do anything!" Natsu says taking my hands in his.
NATSU POV
(Present)
"Yes I do! People I-I love will get hurt if I don't marry him!" Lucy says strongly. Her eyes are starting to water and I just want to pull her in to a hug.
"Who? Tell us and we will protect them. I give you my word." Erza says. She is standing right behind me.
Lucy shakes her head. A tear slips out between her closed eyelids. "He had more power then my father did. He will get a bigger and more determined force to attack them. Even you guys wouldn't be able to stop them."
"We will try! If it's for you, Luce, we'll do it!" I say. I am grabbing her shoulders and shaking her slightly.
"You already helped me. I can't ask for anymore. I don't want you to get hurt!" She now has streams of tears rushing down her face.
I lift my hand up and brush the tears away with my thumbs. Lucy slowly looks up. I hate seeing her cry. I just want to do everything I can to protect her. "Tell us who he is threatening to hurt."
"Fairy Tail. Just like last time. You guys are the closest thing I have to family! I can't do anything that would put you in danger." Lucy stands up taller after saying this.
"No way are we letting you marry this dude! Right Natsu?" Gray asks harshly.
"No way!" I say with a small grin.
"What are we gonna do then? We can't just take her, who knows what that guy will do to Shrimp." Gajeel says impatiently.
"I have an idea." Erza says.
"But whatever happens he'll still attack you guys!" Lucy cries out. "I don't want that to happen!"
I grab Lucy's hand and look her in the eyes. "Don't worry. He can't hurt us as long as we're together. We're the strongest team after all!" I say before looking over at Erza and Gray. They both nod. Then I look at the others and they all smile at me.
Just gonna let you guys know that this story will have an "ending" and that will be the end of part one. Part two will be on this same document/story thing but labeled as part two. It will probably take me longer to update those chapters but this first part will be much shorter than the second! Just letting you guys know so that it doesn't seem like I'm just jumping to the end! Trust me, there will be much more to come!
