Lucy ignored him and continued on her way to her apartment. Sting was debating whether to follow her or not, but then came to the conclusion to just leave her alone.
Chapter 4: Just Give Me A Chance
The next day Lucy awoke from the sound of movement in her kitchen. She smiled and sprung out of bed at first thinking it was Natsu only to see the back of a blonde. She hid behind her wall trying to figure out what to do with the intruder. Whip! The stellar mage crept away to grab her weapon and soon wrapped the intruder within its grasp. Once the man hit the ground Lucy got a good look at his face. "Sting?" Said man groaned and said, "Ow m-morning Blondie." Lucy let go of the whip with a shocked face, "What in the hell are you doing here? You scared the hell out of me." Sting stood up and received a punch from Lucy. "Well next time lock the window you weirdo" Sting stated while rubbing his sore arm. Lucy just dropped her weapon and walked out of the room with a disappointed face. "Well gee don't get too excited seeing me" Sting remarked sarcastically.
Lucy just laid back down in her bed trying to force herself back to sleep while Sting walked in behind her observing her every movement. "Yah, what's the matter with you?"
"Nothing, just leave me alone" she bluntly replied. *huff* "Geez I swear… Alright my bad for coming into your home without your permission. Get over it" Sting apologized. Lucy just tightened her hold on her blanket and replied without turning "Its fine. Can you leave now?" Sting's sensitive nose smelt tears and rushed to her bed side to turn her over facing his way. She was silently crying and it freaked Sting, "No. Don't cry. Come on I just wanted to come over." Lucy tried to turn her head but Sting wouldn't have it. Sting sighed and said straight out, "Its Natsu-san isn't it." Her eyes went wide showing her answer. "Pfft I figured that would be the reason." Sting put his hand on hers stating, "Lucy forget Natsu-san. If you can't, then only think of me." Lucy hesitated and replied, "umm I don't know about this Sting."
It took just one sentence to get her answer, "Just give me a chance." From there her answer was yes. The rest of the day Lucy and Sting spent time together just walking around town. For some reason she was feeling a lot better. She knew she was beginning the process of healing. Little did she know a certain heartbreaker was coming home from a mission and was about to rain on her parade.
