Thank you for your reviews!
He put on a red sleeveless hooded tee, denim shorts and red sneakers. He took his keys, wallet and phone and left the house after he patted his cat. This is the day Lucy can go home. He's been visiting her every day for 2 weeks and a half. Most of the times she ignored him or when she didn't ignore him she yelled at him because he was keep visiting her. Some other times they watched football games which usually ended by yelling at each other...Even if she was keep saying that she hates him or that he should leave her alone he could still see that she enjoyed being around him. Her father didn't visit her once. He wanted to know more about her, but she just said 'I drink, I smoke and I fight. What else is there to know?'. All he could think about those weeks was her. Her smile, her eyes, her hair, her everything. She's just stunning. He could see her smile every time he enters in the room… even if after that comes another round of yelling. He helped her to visit her friends. She stayed a whole day in Cana's room, leaving him all alone waiting for her. Laxus was still in coma. She cried a few good hours after she saw him. She was keep saying "I saw when he shot Laxus. Zeref did it." What is with this Zeref guy anyway? How does he know Lucy and the others? She never told him.
Some new students came. Guess who? Gajeel, Juvia and Jellal aka metal face -for his piercings-, water girl -all she does is to drink water- and the delinquent -there is no period for him to not be sent in principal's office-. And that's not all. Gray is dating Juvia. Levy likes Gajeel and some people says that he likes her too. Erza, the woman who would kill those who do not follow the rules, has a crush on Jellal, and he is all over her. Natsu and Gajeel fight with each other every day at school. Gajeel won almost all the battles, losing only 3 from what...50?... definitely 60.
"Hello Natsu."-the nurse said seeing the pink-haired boy. They become friends since Natsu is almost all day long in the hospitals. Her name was Virgo and she was really nice. Sometimes she helped Natsu to sneak some fries in Lucy's room.
"Hello Virgo. How is your day?"- he asked waving at the young woman, still walking.
"Pretty busy."- was her reply before Natsu entered in the elevator. 'Not this music again!'
He walked towards her room. She was looking on the window. When she heard a knock at the door she turned her head slightly. She smiled before she turned completely.
"What took you so long?"- she asked grabbing her phone from the bed.
"Were you waiting for me?"- he asked grinning.
"Hell no Dragneel! I just knew you would come and I said I should stay till you're here so you won't freak out and look for me in the entire town."- she said walking pass him into the hall towards the elevator. He caught up with her and said "How did you know I was going to do that?"
"I just did."- she said rolling her eyes.
The elevator's doors closed and the music begun.
"Are you serious? Why do you hate me so much? What's with this music God?"- he yelled at no one in particular.
She chuckled seeing his behavior. He turned his head to look at her and there she was, smiling at him.
"You're beautiful."-he said smiling at her. She was wearing some clothes Juvia brought her. Ripped skinny jeans and a loose black tank. He could see her pink bra. She blushed at what he said and he found that the cutest thing in the world. He stepped in front and pressed the block button, the elevator stopping immediately. They were alone and she was shocked at what he did.
"Why did you do that?"-she asked looking at him right in the eyes.
"I wanted more time to look at you."- he said earning another blush from the blonde girl.
"You are so beautiful."- he walked closer to her and put his hands on the wall beside her blocking her moves. She wasn't looking at him but at the ground.
"Look at me."- he said. She shook her head from left to right. He placed his forehead on hers and closed his eyes. He could feel her lifting her head. He opened his eyes only to find beautiful brown chocolate ones. She put her hands on his chest and tried to push him but without success. He was way stronger. She beat a lot of guys but he was just so toned and strong. He smiled seeing her trying to set herself free.
"Na-Natsu… let me go."- she whispered closing her eyes and leaning forward closer to his face.
"Your mind says something but your body says different."- he said before he claimed her lips with his. Her eyes got wide realizing that he was kissing her but she soon sunk into the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. He put his hands around her waist and pulled her closer. Her heart was beating madly and so was his. They broke apart for some air and stared in each other's eyes. She let go of him and pushed back the button, the elevator starting immediately.
The doors opened in just 2 seconds. She stormed out and run out from the hospital before he could realize. He just stared at the hospital's doors not knowing what to do or where to go. He walked out from the hospital but she was nowhere to be seen.
He touched his lips and closed his eyes reliving the moment. After a few minutes of thinking at the kiss he went back in the hospital to Cana's room. She was watching TV.
"Hi Dragneel."-she said.
"Hi. Uuhm… where does Lucy lives?"- he asked scratching the back of his head.
She looked at him surprised "Why do you want to know?"
"I want to talk with her."-he said blushing because he remembered the kiss.
"Well I won't tell you. She will kill me… so you have to find out by yourself."
"Damn that woman!"- Natsu said before he left the room. "Well, I don't know where she lives and I don't know who else I can ask."
*Ring Ring Ring*- his phone started to ring.
"Yeah?"-he asked.
"Hey Pinkie! Wanna go to a movie?"- Gray asked.
"Who's coming?"-Natsu asked getting out from the hospital.
"Everyone."
"Okay. When and where?"- Natsu asked looking around, maybe Lucy was still here somewhere.
"In 20 minutes at the mall."
"I'm on my way."-Natsu said before he hang up.
He headed towards the mall. 'I'll see her tomorrow at school… maybe.'
It wasn't cold outside. It was sunny and beautiful. He choosed the long way so he won't be the first to arrive. Couples were everywhere. They were holding hands and kissing and smiling. They looked happy. Ooh, how much he would love to be with Lucy now. She can be mean with him sometimes but he loves her. When he visited her, Lucy told him about some parties she went to. She told him how drunk or drugged she was. This part hurts him the most. She was slowly killing herself. Can't she see that all those cigs, drugs and alcohol aren't good for her? He knows he can't change her. She is happy with the way she is… but it's not good for her. After a few years his father left him he used to get drunk at some parties, hell he even used to smoke so much… but one day he stopped… he just stopped drinking and stuff. He remembered how Lucy said her mother died. Maybe that's her reason. Maybe that's why she become like that. He wants to help her. To bring out the good side of her. But he can't help her if she doesn't want help.
Finally he arrived at the mall. All his friends were there. Even Gajeel, Juvia and Jellal. There are some new people too.
"Pinkie. Let me introduce you to Loke, Aries, Lyon, Elfman, Evergreen, Bisca and Alzack. "- Gray said pointing at each person in front of them. They all waved at Natsu and he waved back at them.
They entered in the mall and headed towards the cinema. They decided to watch a horror movie so girls would have a reason to cuddle with the person they like.
Natsu and Lyon were the only one alone, woman-less. The two found the movie boring and they talked the whole time about different stuff, like football, or women or food. Most of the time about food.
After the movie ended everyone left to their own house. Natsu was alone again, thinking at his girl. No. She's not his girl, dammit. Why is she so... hard-to-get? They kissed three times and she still won't accept that she has feelings for him. Is it so hard for her to say 'I like you.', or 'I love you.', or anything. Anything is good. But she just runs away every time. Tomorrow will be the day he would tell her how much he loves her. And even if she won't accept his feeling he won't give up. He'll just keep trying till she will accept the fact that he, Natsu Dragneel, is in love with her, Lucy Heartfillia.
The day ended fast. He fell asleep fast. 'Tomorrow it would be my day. Mine and Lucy's.'
The sunshine weak him up. He growled against his pillow before he stood up and took a cold shower.
'Today is the day.'
"Morning Happy."- he greeted his little cat and feed him. He ate some eggs. After that he got dressed in his uniform and left to school.
"Why do I have to go to school?"- she asked no one in particular. She took her shower and ate some pancakes. He put on her uniform and tied her ponytail with the tie. She grabbed a pack of cigs and left the house without greeting her father.
She was praying not to see that pink-haired idiot. 'Why is he keep kissing me for God's sake?'. She couldn't sleep last night. At some point in the night she went down in the kitchen and took a huge gulp of whiskey. After that she managed to sleep for a couple of hours. Her head hurt her so bad now. She lit one of her cigs and took a long drag, than another one.
"Lucy!"-someone shouted from behind. She turned around to find a crying blue-haired girl. Lucy dropped her cig when the girl throw herself in her arms.
"What happened Juvia?"-she asked panting the girl's back.
"M-My dad d-dyed."- Juvia managed to say through sobs. Lucy was jaw-dropped. That man was the only one Juvia has left. Him and her sister. Without him she will end up in an orphanage. She hugged her friend tight.
"You can stay at my house if you want. I'll make my father adopt you. I won't leave you Juvia. Don't worry."- Lucy said. The beautiful girl raised her head to look at her best friend "Thank you."-she whispered. Lucy wiped her tears and said "Where is Wendy now?"
"She's with Jellal."
"Does she know?"
"Not yet…."
"Come, let's go. I will help you to tell her. You're not alone."
