yo minna

4th chapter is now out

will Natsu say those magic words or will he chicken out?

once again how will lucy react?

at the guild

Lucy lay her head on the table. After Gray's confession she had lay on her bed tossing and turning. She couldn't think properly. Gray was funny and sweet. He had that annoying and inappropriate habit of stripping at the wrong moments and was always picking fights with Natsu.

Her thoughts turned to Natsu. They had known each other since she came to the guild and she had thought she was developing feelings for him but lately he seemed...seemed different. Lucy smiled as she remembered the countless times he had saved her lives. Yes...Natsu not Gray, had saved her life more times then she was able to count. Arghh she thought. I said I needed to think but this is just arghh...what do I do.

Lucy looked up and was about to ask Mira for something to drink when Natsu came over to her. He was blushing furiously. "Hey Natsu what's wrong?" Lucy began to ask. "Lucy I...err...ano...i need to talk to you now!" Natsu stuttered. "Then talk" Lucy replied. "I have a lot on my mind right now so stop stuttering away and tell me what's wrong!" Lucy said harshly."Yes...we'll could go somewhere else please? I can't say this here." Natsu said. Lucy got up and walked out of the guild with Natsu following behind.

Mira, Happy and Erza's who had just witnessed the whole conversation smiled at their backs knowingly...

"So what did you want to tell me?" Lucy asked when the duo where in her apartment. "I love you Lucy!" Natsu said. "Natsu think about what this means for both of us...please" Lucy pleaded.

"I'm aware that Gray confessed and you have a lot on your mind at the moment but I just want a chance with you. I won't let Gray have you!" Natsu said slowly. "Natsu let me just think about it. I dont know how you know about the confession but I don't want to start an arguement!

You guys are all my precious nakama and I love you all as friends but where you and Gray come into that equation is different. I'm not rejecting you or anything. I just wanted you to know that. I will give you an answer when I'm ready and know the answer to my feelings but just do me a favour and...and wait." Lucy said.

"Fine I can wait. What I want you to know is that if you chose Gray over me I will not stop at anything to make you mine. Whenever I see loke flirting with you or Gray and Laxus teasing you it stabs my heart. I hate it. Please don't break my heart Lucy!" Natsu pleaded. He turned his back and opened the door. With one last longing look back at Lucy he turned and walked out the door.

the guild

As soon as Nastu had left Lucy had jumped out the window and ran as fast as she could to the guild. Luckily, Natsu and Gray had gone. "Erza I need to talk to you now." Lucy said. "Is this about gray and Natsu" she asked smiling. "You knew them both when you were growing up right?

Who would you choose...if you didn't have jellal?" Lucy asked. "Gray. Natsu is a 12year old at heart. But Lucy you shouldn't be asking me. Follow your own feelings. Even if they do lead you by the leash a bit. Your feelings are your own. Do not doubt them. Do what you want to do Lucy, I believe in you. Even if you do make the wrong choice you still have nakama who are always with you and will help you. You can fix that choice up even if it isn't right. Follow your heart Lucy!" Erza ended dramatically.

In her heart lucy knew Erza was right...
