'' No. ''

'' I'm going with you, '' I blocked his way out, preventing him from taking another step. '' I'm not letting you leave without me. ''

I need to be with him, he doesn't get it. I want to make sure he's safe. Just having the thought of him leaving and me staying here not having any idea if he's alive or not terrifies me.

'' Lucy, I'm not taking you with me and thats final. '' he grabbed my shoulders and moved me away, despite me trying to push him.

'' NATSU! Stop being stubborn, '' He kept walking, so I grabbed his hands making him turn around to face me. '' we can go through this together, we are a team... right? '' I looked into his eyes, hoping that he would understand, but then he pulled his hands from my graspe.

'' Natsu-? ''

'' How can I take you with me when you couldn't handle it when you heard about the news. How am I supposed to save the others when I'm too busy trying to save you. You will only slow me down, and maybe we wouldn't be as lucky enough to survive like last time. '' He turned around, giving me his back. '' Maybe if I knew you'd be able to handle yourself, I would have appreciated your company. ''

I couldn't move. I was in shock, that I didn't realise that he went ahead and opened the door until the light from the sun blinded my eyes.

'' Goodbye, Lucy. ''

He speared me one last look, before closing the door leaving me all alone.

The sun rays disappeared, and so was the warmth in my body.

I felt cold and distant

He's right, I slow him down.

I can't protect myself, how would I protect him? How would I help save the others?

he's better there without me.
