HeorieOtaku: So um...sorry for this being so long, but I just felt that we needed more of Natsus side of the story, sence we know little about all this stuff he does. The next chapter might be mostly Natsu's view, but don't worry. I plan to continue it, no matter what. It just seemed easiar for me to do the next chapter after this in his prospective. B.T.W. Chapter 6 should be back to Lucy's prospective. One last thing before I go, though. Sence I will say i am a girl, well, you can expect my boys prospective is not that good. That's all I have to say. Hope you like this chapter!
P.S. I don't live in Japan, so that tells you that I can't own Fairy tail. Sorry.
Chapter 4
Natsu's POV start to now
Even though I had heard a rumor that lucy was forced by Gray to do "it" and even though I didn't know what "it' was, I didn't believe what I heard. I don't want to believe it...this can't be right. I mean...Luce would never give in to such a thing.
I decided that I needed to visit lucy's house and find out what was happening.Please. Please let the rumor not be true. I was running as fast as my long dragon feet could take me.
Like usual, I didn't know why I felt like I wanted to have luce all to myself, but at the time, I just figured that it was because she was one of the best friends I ever had. Faster! Faster! I must get there on time, before little ice princess can hurt her more if the rumors are true!
Finally, I got to the point where all I had to do was make a left turn, and I was at lucy's house. I need to rest a little, so... I guess I can walk the rest.
When I looked over at Lucy's house I saw something looking at the stars. It's her. It's Lucy!
I ran again, because I couldn't take it anymore. I had to know more of the story.
After a few seconds, I arrived at her I looked out of the corner of my eye, I saw the star light reflect off of her. Wow. She is beautiful.
All of the sudden images of her with just a towel wrapped around her then I shook my head. What am I thinking!
When I went to open the door and barge in like I normally would do, something stopped my hand and made me recoil. What will luce say. If the rumors were true, wouldn't she of told me if they are true. I am her best friend, I would hope at least.
I looked at the ground and felt something wash over me. Maybe, this is not the time to barge in. Just maybe I should keep my nose out of my own business.
I felt like crying, but I know that elfman would disapprove and say a "Real Man" wouldn't do that, so I started to walk back to my house.
What will I ever do? I thought. Will luce ever talk to me again? I mean, she never talks to me anymore, because she is grays "boyfriend". What does that mean anyway. Some times I wasn't the smartest of them all.
Upon arriving I saw Happy flying towards me. "Hi Natsu! How did it go, with you liking lucy and all."
Oh great. Here we go again. I thought. Not too long ago, I found his perfect weakness, so. In the end, if he teases me, I will tease him. " I already told you. I don't like lucy that way. We are just friends."
"Just friend, eh? Well I can beg to differ with how you act around her!" Happy looked quite pleased with himself when he said that.
Well I didn't want to do this, but he had it coming. "What about Carla. Hm? Is she just a friend? Do you bring a friend a fish gift everyday? Huh Happy?" I was pleased with myself too, because it looked like I won this round of who likes who. His face was beet red and it went to that color as fast as a lightbulb turns on.
"Natsu! That's not funny! You know I don't like being teased about Carla and how I like her and all..." There it is! He just admitted it!
"Ha! You just admitted it by saying 'I don't like being teased about Carla and How I like her and all'. I can't believe it! You like her!" I said it the same way he did. I even tried to do his voice, but it just sounded more like grunting at each other.
"ok, ok. I get it. You win. But I don't sound like that to let you know!" Happy was not happy at all. It was like he turned into grumpy instead.
"So." Happy continued to talk. "How was it with Luce though. Did you get her to talk?" He is serious now. I better not tell him what happened. That was what I thought at least.
"Um. It didn't go so well." Curse my ability not to lie to happy! "I went to the door, and was about to barge in, like normal because that always gets her attention, but I did not do that. All I did was reach for the door..." NO DON'T TELL HIM! "Then I recoiled my hand..." No turning back now. " Almost cried and slowly sulked back home."
"Ouch. Why did you do that?" Happy was becoming quite curious.
"I don't know. A voice inside my head told me that I should leave her alone for the time being, but now I regret it." Truly and painfully regret it. I thought in my mind.
"Well..." Happy and I went in while he was talking and we sat down next to all our mementos of lucy and our adventures together, then he continued. "I could ask lucy if she wants to go on a trip alone with only you. If you don't mind only you and Lucy together on a mission."
I smiled my famous smile that everyone love, because it was a great idea. Plus, he volunteered to do the asking. I thought happily. "sure. Why not. But luce is probably asleep by now, so you will probably have to spend the night. If for some reason she asks why I am not there..." Which will most likely not happen, since it is lucy we are talking about here. And shes always angry when I come to visit, so, yeah.
I thought while remembering getting knocked out last time, because she was taking a bath. I don't know why she got all wiard. It's not like I haven't seen her naked before.
Natsu's Falshback
Huh! What is that in the distance? All i saw was a little patch of blue and some yellow stuff that looked like fur.
I think I will go check it out!I thought as I ran to the little blue and yellow thing.
Next thing I know I was flying and a rock went with me. As I approached that thing I realized what that thing was. It was Luce. Oh NO! "Luce, look out!"
The sharp rock cut open her shirt and bra, so I could see her breasts. Wow! They are big! That was when I fell on her. Oh no...why did I just think that. This is such a Icecube boy thought!
"Natsu! NO! DON'T LOOK!" It was too late. I saw her there when I was flying and also I was on top of her now.
I looked away and closed my eyes, but I could feel my face burn up. "um...this is embarrassing to say, but I already saw it." Oh help me now! Because I don't have the will to lie to luce, she is going to kill me.
"I'll talk to you in a sec, but could you get off of me? Please? This is kind of embarrassing to me too." I got off the of Lucy and lay down on the grass, still with my eyes closed.
"Tell me when you are decint. Ok?" I feel bad enough, and I am just waiting for my slap or kick in the face. This is going to hurt.
"I am good now." That was what she said then I replied upon opening my eyes.
"I am waiting for you to slap or kick me. Please get it over with." I closed my eyes waiting for impact, but it never came. I opened my eyes hoping that she just wasn't late with the swing. "Aren't' you going do something?"
"Um... at first I thought so, but I then decided that it was an accident and don't push me otherwise I will kick you somewhere worse than your face." I got the memo then and there and didn't say anything else and enjoyed the sunset under the oak tree.
Back to present
"Ok, happy will you really do that for me?" I was hoping that, because I really, really wanted to talk to Lucy because as friends, we were slowly growing apart.
"Aye, sir! I will head out right now to her house!" He looked overjoyed to go to lucy's.
"Good luck! See you tomorrow morning with my answer! Ok! Bye!" Happy left and I was left to talk alone to myself.
"Well...it has been a long day, so I better get some needed rest. I'm going to need it for tomorrow!" I can't wait to be with lucy, all alone for once! This is going to be so nice!
That night I dreamed of lucy crying in my arms and me saying I would be a better friends than her and that Melted Ice boy.
It was a wondrous dream until I had to chase after her, because "He" meaning the Ice mage took luce away from my arms. Lucy was screaming for my help but I couldn't catch up. "LUUUUCCCCCYYYYY!" I woke up screaming her name.
I started to cry. I don't care if i'm not a man if I cry. I don't want to loose lucy.
"LUUUUCCCCCYYYYY!" I screamed her name out again, knowing no one could hear me. I just can't stop crying. It hurts so much, but Luce doesn't know. Why?
I lay back down but couldn't get any more sleep. I just can't get "her" off of my mind.
Soon after wiping my tears away and putting on my clothes and sandals, Happy came flying in. This could be it. Better get ready! That was what I thought, until I saw Happy's face then I fell back on my bed prepared for my major shutdown. "So...what did she say?"
Happy looked at me trying to look like he normally does, but he fail and sulked some more. "I'm sorry Natsu, but she really wants to go on a mission by Lucy, herself, and no one else. Not even me."
He looked at me and mumbled something. "huh?" I asked in a hurt tone. All I wanted was to talk to her again. To hear her soft voice. Buy now... I can't go on missions with her. I started to cry again.
"Are...are you ok, Natsu?" I looked at him then we met each others face's.
"You want to know the truth, Happy? I am not ok. I hurt so much, that I am afraid of what will happen. Will I ever get to talk to lucy ever again? Does she even consider me a friend?" I...I can't stop sobbing! She Doesn't want to me!
Happy started to cry too. "Don't cry happy. Atleast you went to her. I didn't do anything. Come here and give me a hug." We held each other together and just cried.
We cried for maybe about an hour before we decided to suck it up and go to the guild.
"Happy?" I wanted to make a promise.
"Yeah?" A promise that we would uphold.
"If Lucy ever gets hurt by that Chilled Lunchbox, promise that we will be there for her, but only, and I mean only, when she asks us for it ok?" A promise that Lucy would of agreed to if she was here.
"I promise if you promise." One that we would both agree to too.
"I promise too." That even I, Natsu Dragneel would always keep.
That was our promise. What I did not know though is that I would soon break my promise, and try to help out Lucy, before she asked for it. Very soon.
When we arrived at the Fairy tail guild, I could see that mostly everyone was there. Except for two people that weren't here yet. Huh? Juvia and Lucy both aren't here. I guess it is the best for me right now.
I walked over to the bar where Mirajane was and sat there and sighed. What am I ever going to do without Luce? I wondered to myself.
"What in the world happened to your eyes Natsu!" There standing right in front of me, as expected, was Mira.
"What? Does anything look wrong with them? Because I feel just fine." I wonder what I look like.
"Here. You look horrible. It looks like you cried all night like a girl would. You ok? I will get you something to make it not look so bad. Don't worry. It's on the house." I looked at her in wonder. Do I really look THAT bad? All well. Free drink for me.
After finishing the drink I thanked Mirajane. "No problem. You should go get some proper rest though. The drink does not make it perfect, because I haven't perfected it yet." She looked at me worriedly.
"Fine I will go home. But if you don't mind, would you say hi to Luce for me?" I got up and was ready to go.
"Sure no problem!" She giggled then went back to her work. Well, I better get going.
I started to walk forward when the opening of the doors started me and made me stop for a second. In came a overjoyed Juvia, and like she used to, she went over to that Frozen wasteland, she called Gray-sama. I wonder why she is acting like that again around him? All well.
As I turned around I saw a blond celestial wizard peek through the door and slowly walked in. She looks terrified. I thought as I observed her facial expressions change rapidly.
When I looked down for a second, I notice that there was a board on the ground that was hazardous because it was sticking on the ground. Oh. I better warn her to look out for that...
I could not say anything before the falling Lucy fell right into his arms with him catching her. Thus protecting her from falling face down on the floor. Oh no! What should I do! Gray is going to kill me! Not that I am afraid of him or nothing, but this will only make matters worse. I am so surprised that I even said the wrong name for Waterfall boy.
That was when the cute princess looked at me and made me turn beat red. I guess it's because I haven't looked at her face looking at mine for a while.
Puting the princess down I attempted to start a conversation with her. "Um..." I wish I could have this kind of stuff happen to me more often, since we are almost not...not...
I felt the tears coming back, so just as a precaution I turned around and saw that only Mira could see me. I sighed in relief. I looked at her and put a finger in front of my mouth as to say. 'If I cry...PLEASE keep it silent.' From what I could tell, she could tell what I meant, and gave me the thumbs up.
I was relieved. I got ready to talk again, but instead of saying something first, she decided to take the lead.
"Thanks for stopping me from that fall. I don't know why I tripped. That normally does not happen." All I could tell was that she was thankful, since I could not see her face.
How to respond! How to respond! Oh I know! "Don't mention it. That's what friends are for. Right? Just be more careful" I don't know why, but when I said 'that's what friends are for' ,it kind of stung a little. I could feel my heart throbbing.
"Ok. I will be more careful." I turned around relieved to see a grin on her face, but as soon as she was done she went to join Juvia at the Antarctic Ocean table. Ouch. was the first thing to pop on my mind.
I can't take this anymore. I am going to go rest on the roof. So I went outside and relaxed in the sun.
Awwww... this feels so good. I think I will sleep here a while. With that, I closed my eyes.
Who is talking out there? I woke up from what did not feel like even a ten minute nap to hear some talking down below.
When I looked down, I saw the one who started the ice age, and Lucy, who was the one that I really had been wanting to talk to.
I wonder what they are talking about. I leaned in closer to get better hearing. Lucy was the first to talk.
"I...I want to break up with you.." I sat there in shock. I knew I was not supposed to hear this, but I was.
What was I going to do?!
HeorieOtaku: Whew...I am finally done, but like I said before, sorry it is so long. Hope you like it. Please feel free to leave reviews, follow, fave, or whatever. Just don't copy my story line. Thanks!
