Disclamier: I am not Hiro Mashima therefore I do not own Fairy Tail! *sobs*
A/N: Okay, so at first I tried to update this on a weekly basis, then after that not working out I tried to at least update on a monthly bais which apparently did not work out too well either considering it has been almost a year since I've updated this story. So... Sorry to anyone who was enjoying this story, ha. I'm going to try to update this more often, but I've learned not to make any promises on that. However, I really have been in the writing mood lately, I'm even thinking about writing some FFVII stuff in celebration of the remake which, sorry I know this is the FT section, but I am so excited for the remake like you don't even understand! Omg, sorry. Anyways, I hope you enjoy reading the update. Favorites, reviews, and all that other good stuff is always much apperciated! :3 Thank you.
Another day of classes. However, today Lucy is finding it abnormally hard to concentrate. Ever since that night Natsu will not leave her brain. 'It was bad enough before' she thought to herself, 'first he won't leave me alone in real life, but now I can't even get away from him in my thoughts.'
She really could not get away from him. This'll was their Romantic Literature class. From time to time throughout the class period Lucy would look over to her left and see him sitting at his desk. She caught herself staring. 'Just what I need. Why am I so obsessed with him?'
She could not help but stare, though. Ever since that night Natsu has been rather distant. At least for him. Maybe only barging into her apartment once a day as opposed to the seemingly hundred times a day before their encounter. Always led by Happy too. It is like he was there against his will. During the visits, if you could call them that, Natsu was rather quiet. You would think that would be a miracle, but it made Lucy upset. The visits were also always short lived as Happy felt the weird tension and started feeling awkward. He would always make up a dumb excuse for why they were leaving so soon. For instance, "Aww! I left some fish on the stove. Ha, we gotta go Natsu before our house burns down." Happy did the whole nudge nudge thing on Natsu's arm to let him know that their house was not in the midst of burning down, but they should still really get out of Lucy's house quick just in case awkwardness is flammable.
Lucy did not really understand why the whole situation was as awkward as it was. They had their drunk love conversations and cleared up everything in the morning. That is how it is supposed to be done right? The only problem was that everything became worse in the morning because both of them knew how they truly felt, but just did not know how to express it anymore. Leading to lies out of shyness that never should have been said.
She wondered what he was thinking. He looked in rather deep thought as he had a rather blank expression on his face and he was chewing his pen absent mindedly. She wished that he was thinking about her. 'But who am I kidding, he said so himself that morning... The whole thing was just, nothing.'
She sighed as she heard the bell ring. Class was over in the blink of an eye today. She could not recall a damn thing that the professor even said.
Averting her eyes from Natsu's general direction she picked up her books. She was being rather slow hoping that he would at least notice her existence and give her a smile or a 'hello', anything. Nothing happened, though. He just walked right out of class. She decided to be a little slower in gathering her things just so she would not have to be right behind him as she was leaving.
She tried to enjoy the walk home, she just found it hard to. It's been almost a week since that night and everything just seems to keep getting worse. Natsu keeps getting more and more distant. For the life of her she could not understand why. She was in denial of the fact that maybe it was because she was on his mind all the time too. That maybe he just did not know what to say or how to say it, just like her...
