I'm back!
Before I do anything, I'd just like to thank one of my reviewers TChacha, you have no idea how much your review cheered me up, I'm thankful to have so many people supporting my stories and it makes me glad, and don't worry, I tend to talk a lot too ( I once talked for two hours straight when I was about three, my mom fell asleep in the middle of me talking and woke up to find me still talking)
This chapter is a continuation of the last one, I really want to turn it into a full blown story but we'll see.
Disclaimer: Sadly, Fairy Tail belongs to Hiro Mashima, if I owned Fairy Tail, Rolu would be a thing!
Goodbye Part 2.
True to the doctors statement, Lucy had woken up a month later. The day the blonde woke up, it had been a tearful reunion between her and her aunt, on top of that, Lucy had also met Yukino and the others.
"Your such an idiot, I don't get why you just won't visit her, she's been awake for two weeks now," Sting growled as he turned to glare at Rogue who simply lay back in his bed.
"Do you really think she'd want to see me after all these years," Rogue muttered as he closed his eyes and tucked his hands behind his head.
"She asks for you everyday you asshole," Sting muttered as he grabbed his dorm key off the table.
"She does?...Anything new from the doctors?" Rogue asked as he sat up in his bed.
"She's been going through rehab for the past week, she's paralysed from the waist down, you should really go visit her, I'm pretty sure Blondie would enjoy it," Sting smirked sadly as he left their shared dorm room leaving Rogue alone.
Rogue sat up from his bed as he grabbed the white carnation and glanced at it sadly as he looked out the window.
"…..Damn Im such an idiot," Rogue hissed quietly as his eyes became shadowed.
Sting arrived outside the dorm buildings to find Yukino standing in front of the campus's large golden gates, Yukino wore a simply light blue sundress and white flats.
"I can't believe the Academy is closing down in two weeks," Yukino mumbled sadly as she and Sting began walking towards the hospital.
"Neither can I," Sting muttered as he kept his eyes down.
The Sabertooth Academy was to be closed in two weeks time due to harsh treatment towards students, many of its students were being transferred to other schools such as Fairy Tail academy.
"I wonder what Lucy's going to say today," Yukino chuckled as she thought back to the childish and bubbly blonde girl, in the two weeks she'd been awake, Lucy and Yukino had become pretty good friends.
"She's probably going to try and hit me again," Sting huffed as he held his cheek, he had gotten punched by Lucy for making a comment on her breast size.
"Well, maybe you shouldn't of said that her boobs were larger than a soccer ball," Yukino scolded as she hit Sting lightly upside his head as they entered the hospital and took the elevator up.
When they entered Lucy's room, they were shocked to find her bed empty.
"W-Where's Lucy?" Yukino asked as she looked to find any signs of Lucy leaving but there were none, the girls bed was even neatly made.
"Hey guys," a voice giggled from behind them as they turned around to find the bubbly blonde in a wheel chair.
"Where the hell were you Blondie?" Sting asked as Lucy glared at him for the nickname.
"Your blonde too lightbulb, I was still at rehab, they say I can be let out in another two weeks at most," Lucy grinned as Yukino smiled widely.
"That's great Lucy, we actually kind of have a surprise for you," Yukino smiled as she brought out a plastic bag and handed it to Lucy who curiously peered into the bag.
"Clothes?" Lucy asked as she looked at the grinning teens.
"No you idiot, the nurse says we're allowed to take you into town and Yukino here is going to get you dressed," Sting smirked as he walked out of the room as he leaned against the wall and flipped open his phone to find a text from Rogue.
Rogue: Do you think I can still see her today?
Sting smirked to himself as he read the message, so Rogue was finally ready to gave his fear.
Sting: Yeah sure but meet us in the park, she has no idea and isn't going to until she sees you
"We're done!" Yukino chirped as she wheeled Lucy out of the room, the blonde now had her hair down with two braided locks of hair dangling loosely with the rest of her loose hair, she also wore a large floppy white sun hat, she wore a simple white spaghetti strapped sun dress and a pair of strappy white sandals, Lucy also carried a small white messenger bag with two books Rufus had gotten her plus a few other things.
"Alright, your next surprise awaits you at the park," Sting declared with a smirk as they wheeled Lucy into the elevator.
"We have another surprise for her?" Yukino asked as the elevator took them all the way down to the lobby as they wheeled Lucy out of the hospital.
"We do now," Sting grinned as he showed Yukino his phone causing the girl to grin.
"It's so beautiful outside," Lucy giggled as she stretched her hands over the side of the wheelchair feeling the nice breeze gently hit her arm.
"You haven't even seen the best part yet," Yukino chuckled as they made a turn as they began heading towards the park.
"Everything's changed so much since I've been out," Lucy mumbled as she looked at the cherry blossom trees that lined the parks walkways, she watched two little kids run around as they began giggling, she even smiled at the sight of an elderly couple walking hand in hand.
"There he is," Yukino grinned as she pointed towards the fountain where the figure of a boy stood.
Lucy felt all the air leave her lungs as she looked at the boy carefully, shaggy black hair up in an effortless ponytail and a pair of stunning red eyes…could it be?
"R-Rogue," Lucy whispered as the boy looked towards her and his eyes widened at the sight of her as Yukino wheeled her closed towards him.
"L-Lucy…" Rogue began to feel nervous as he looked down at the girl in the wheel chair.
"Rogue!" Lucy cried as she grabbed his arm and pulled him into a hug as she began sobbing.
"I-I'm sorry Rogue, I'm s-so sorry for breaking t-the necklace, I-I'm sorry I left," Lucy cried as she sobbed into Rogue's shirt.
"Shut up, if I hadn't said anything, if I just kept my cool, none of this would have happened, it's all my fault," Rogue choked out as he hurried his face in Lucy's neck letting his gentler side show.
"This is so heartwarming," Yukino cooed as she stood beside a smirking Sting.
"Well, Blondie seems to still love him after all these years," Sting chuckled causing Yukino to become confused.
"What do you mean?" Yukino asked as they watched the two talk and make-up from afar.
"Well the other day, I did some snooping on Rogue's side of our room and found a bunch of stuff, including a love letter from Blondie that she never got to officially give him because of aha happened that day," Sting explained as the two walked back to Rogue and Lucy.
"So, all better now?" Yukino asked as they began walking but smiled as she watched Rogue push Lucy's wheelchair.
"Mhm," Lucy grinned as she took in all the sights as they left the park.
"So, do you know when you might be able to leave the hospital?" Rogue asked as Lucy's eyes lit up.
"Y-Yeah I do, the doctors say Im progressing very well so I'll be aloud to leave in about two weeks," Lucy stated causing Rogue to begin smiling.
"That's pretty fast," Rogue mumbled as Lucy's eyes lit up at the sight of the ice cream parlour.
"Ooh ice cream! Can we please get some," Lucy asked as she waved her arm at the ice cream parlour, all three teens looked at each other before nodding.
"Sure why not Blondie," Sting smirked but it was quickly wiped of his face by Lucy flashing her hand out and hitting him.
"Your blonde too you idiot," Lucy hissed as she crossed her arms.
The four teens entered the ice cream parlour as they all sat at a table as Rogue decided he would go order for everyone.
"Ooh, I want birthday cake with sprinkles," Yukino grinned as she glanced at Rogue.
"I'm going with French vanilla then," Sting smirked as they all looked at Lucy who was thinking.
"What about you Lucy?" Yukino asked Lucy who furrowed her eyebrows.
"I-I don't really know what I want," Lucy mumbled as her face tinged pink in embarrassment.
"Then I'll get your favourite then," Rogue stated as he looked at Lucy who stared up at him in awe.
"Y-You still remember my favourite?" Lucy asked as she gently placed her hands on her thighs.
"Well yeah, of course I do," Rogue smiled softly as he left the table.
"I've never seen Rogue smile this much," Yukino thought out loud causing Lucy to raise an eyebrow.
"Really?"
"Yeah, he's usually so closed off from everyone," Sting explained as he leaned back in his seat.
"Here," Rogue handed everyone their desired orders as he handed Lucy the cup holding strawberry-vanilla swirl icecream with marshmallows.
"T-Thank you," Lucy smiled softly as she brought the spoon to her lips.
"So Lucy, has your aunt talked to you about schooling yet?" Yukino asked as she continued eating her icecream.
"N-Not really, she's planning on sending me to the Fairy Tail Academy though," Lucy mumbled as she took small spoons of her icecream.
"What a coincidence, we'll be transferring there in about two weeks," Sting smirked as both he and Rogue finished their icecream.
"Really? My aunt was worried about me not knowing anyone there since I'd have to stay in the dorms," Lucy mumbled as the teens stood and left as Rogue wheeled her out.
"Well maybe you and I will be dorm mates!" Yukino chirped as they walked down the sidewalk.
"Well look who it is, if it isn't the tigers," a voice growled as Lucy looked up to see a boy with pink hair and some of his friends standing there.
"What do you want fairies," Sting growled as he narrowed his eyes at the "fairies".
"Who the hell is that, we've never seen her with you tigers before?" A raven haired boy in only his underpants asked as he pointed at Lucy.
"Leave Lucy out of this," Rogue growled as he stood in front of Lucy protectively.
"Who knew that the tigers would have a cripple among their ranks," a teen with a mane of long black hair and piercing red eyes.
Lucy looked down at her lap sadly as Rogue let out a growl.
"Gajeel! Stop being so insensitive," a small blue haired girl hissed as she hit Gajeel.
"How can you guys be so insensitive! She's done nothing to you!" Yukino yelled as they began walking away leaving the stunned fairies behind.
Lucy remained quiet as they arrived at the park as they all sat under a tree in front of a beautiful lake.
"Lucy, are you alright?" Rogue asked carefully looking at the sad blonde.
"Y-Yeah, I'm oka-….whoops," Lucy mumbled as some of the icecream fell from the spoon and onto her leg.
"Here, I'll get it," Rogue muttered as he took a napkin from his pocket as wiped the icecream off Lucy's leg.
"T-Thank you Rogue…d-do you think what they said is true, that I'm nothing but a cripple?" Lucy asked sadly as she removed her hat and gently set it down in the grass along with her purse.
"No, of course not," Rogue reassured as he leaned against the tree.
"Yeah, those fairies are nothing but a bunch of weaklings," Sting mumbled as Lucy looked up to find him sitting in the tree.
"Just ignore them Lucy, they know nothing?" Yukino reassured Lucy who simply mumbled a quiet thank you.
"Rogue, can you do me a favour," Lucy asked quietly as Rogue turned towards her.
"Sure, anything," Rogue said as he looked down at the girl in the wheelchair.
"Can you take me out of the wheelchair please," Lucy mumbled as she looked up at Rogue who simply raised an eyebrow as he took Lucy out of the wheelchair and began blushing as he held her bridal style.
"Now what?" Rogue asked as Lucy carefully wrapped her hands around his neck.
"Now bring me towards the lake and set me down gently," Lucy ordered Rogue who simply did as Lucy asked, he sat beside the blonde who began smiling.
"Why you want me to bring you so close to the lake," Rogue asked as he watched Lucy's feet dangle in the water.
"I just wanted to feel the water on my feet, that's all," Lucy mumbled as she gazed into the lake sadly.
"I don't get it, how are you talking to me so easily after everything that's happened, don't you hate me for it?" Rogue asked as Lucy turned to look at him.
"I can never hate you, you mean too much to me, no matter what happens, I can never bring myself to hate you," Lucy smiled softly as they watched the sun set.
The silence was interrupted by Sting who decided to stand up and stretch as he made a loud groaning sound.
"We have to get Lucy back to the hospital," Yukino explained as Rogue nodded before carefully picking Lucy up and putting her back into the wheelchair.
"Today was a lot of fun guys…..thank you," Lucy mumbled as they all left the park.
"No need to thank us Lucy," Yukino smiled softly as they walked through the emptying streets.
"I have to admit, today was actually pretty okay," Sting smirked as he wrapped an arm around Yukino.
The rest of the walk was spent in a comforting silence as they reached the hospital, by the time they arrived at Lucy's hospital room, the realized the blonde had fallen asleep.
"What do we do about her dress?" Yukino asked as Rogue gently picked Lucy up and placed her in the bed.
"Just leave her, she'll be fine," a nurse smiled as she walked into the room.
"Oh, ok," Yukino mumbled as she quickly put Lucy's purse on the table beside the bed.
"She's really lucky to have friends like you three," the nurse grinned as she watched the friends walk down the hall.
"Must've been nice seeing Blondie after a while huh Rogue," Sting grinned as they took the elevator down to the lobby.
"Very, I'm just glad she doesn't hate me, but if it weren't for me that day, she wouldn't be in this situation," Rogue muttered referring to the fact that Lucy was now paralyzed from the waist down.
"Just shut up, Lucy's always been telling me about you and it's obvious she doesn't hate you so just shut up will you, it's obvious that she cares so much for you and I'm pretty damn sure it would break her heart if you kept beating yourself up over so just quit it!" Yukino yelled as she stunned both Sting and Rogue.
It remained quiet between the three as Rogue let out a shaky breath before deciding to respond.
"I guess your right," Rogue whispered as his hand rested upon the old letter in his pocket.
I just feel so sad!
I made Lucy paralyzed and now I feel terrible! I really do want to turn this into a real story though but who knows, we'll see
