Previously on Give Me A Try:

Sting smirked, "Yeah. Do you like me as much as you like ice cream?" Lucy blushed and then gave a small smile, "Almost." Sting's eyes grew but then went back to normal and his lips formed a smile of his own. They sat there in their comfort.

Chapter 7: The End

It's been two days since Lucy and Sting have been going on dates since the last incident. They aren't dating but act like they are minus the kissing. Natsu finally left them alone. Everything was going smooth till later in the night. There was going to be a formal party tonight at the guild. Lucy invited Sting. It was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon and everyone was getting ready. An hour later Lucy was standing in front of the mirror smoothing her dress out. She was wearing a long sparkly strapless black dress with a sparkly gold sash around her shoulder. She was thanking all the missions she took for her body only to be interrupted by knocking at the door. When Lucy opened it there stood Sting handsomely in an all-black suit with a gold tie. Lucy was awed by his appearance. "What happened see something you like?" he teased. Lucy snapped out of her daze and blushed. Sting examined her from head-to-toe "Well I see something I like." Lucy slapped his shoulder playfully, "Lets go lover boy before we are late." He extended his hand to hers which she gladly took with her delicate one.

2 Hours later:

After all the drinking and chatting Sting walked up to Lucy and offered her a dance which she accepted. Mira seen the two and immediately played a slow song. Sting wrapped his arms around Lucy's waist and Lucy placed her hands on his shoulders. When their eyes met it was almost like a zing in the moment. "Lucy I need to tell you something. You don't have to answer me after I say this." Lucy was confused but waited and listened to what he wanted to say. "I think I'm in love with you." They stopped dancing and just stood there. Lucy was looking at him in disbelief. "Lucy I'm sorry if I ruined your-" he was cut off by a pair of lips. After realizing that Lucy was kissing him, he kissed back. Lucy broke the kiss and then took a deep breath to respond, "What took you so long Blondie?"

"Can I kiss you?"

"Did you really need to ask me that?" Lucy rolled her eyes. They kissed and became a couple.

The night continued on with joy in the air. Before the night ended a saber appeared. "Sting!" a voice boomed. Everyone faced the door to find Rouge. Sting ran up to him and walked outside. The guild just turned away trying to mind their own business. As minutes passed Lucy grew worried, so she walked to the door to make sure nothing bad happened. "Sti-"

"What the hell happened? I thought you said you were going to end things with Lucy and come back." Lucy was hurt and angry. Most of all she was confused. Her heart clenched and she pushed the door open and seen Sting. "You love me huh?" Sting was shocked, so he stumbled with words. "Lucy wait I can ex-" he started, but was soon stopped by a hand connecting with his cheek. "You don't have the right to say my name. Also I don't ever want to see your face around here. This is the last time you and I will ever come in contact again Eucliffe." Lucy pushed past him and walked away before Sting grabbed her wrist, spun her around and kissed her. Lucy pushed against his chest and slapped him again. Tears streaming down her face was the last image he seen on her face before he met her back and watched her walk away.

Once Lucy got home she threw her shoes and a picture frame against the wall. She collapsed to her knees and let her feelings go until everything went black. When Lucy woke up her eyes were swollen and she had a headache. After taking some aspirin the broken hearted started picking up the shards of glass and threw them away. She finally picked up the random picture and looked at what it held. It was a picture of Sting and Lucy on one of their dates. She was smiling brightly at the camera while Sting was gazing at her. This cause more tears to cascade. "He really did love you" a voice interrupted. Lucy looked up and seen Natsu shadowing over her. "He is serious Luce. That numbskull wouldn't hurt you like… like I did." Lucy started hiccupping and then stood up only to be embraced in Natsu's arms. "Stop being a crybaby and find your happily ever after you weird princess" he whispered. Lucy backed up and wiped her eyes. "Thank you Natsu" she kissed him on the cheek and left. Natsu watched Lucy leave remembering what happened last night.

Flashback (Natsu's POV):

When I walked outside to see what the commotion was I seen Lucy slap Sting with tears down her face. I was angry and grabbed that stupid blond by his collar and lifted him off his feet. Before I could punch him square in the face he had tears down his face. I dropped him on the ground and he just lied there staring at the sky. "What do I do Natsu-san? She left me. It was a misunderstanding but she won't hear me out" he cried to me with his arm draped over his eyes. I honestly didn't know what to say. He's like a lost little kid. "Well first get off the ground and face me while talking to me." I watched him rise onto his feet then continued, "You can't do anything right now. Give her some space." All he did was nod sadly, but at least he stopped crying. "Hey Sting" he looked up at me and I asked, "you really love Lucy huh?" He gave me a sad smile and responded, "She could be the one." Then he straightened himself out and said "Well I'll leave tomorrow and give Lucy some space. See you whenever Natsu-san." That's when I last seen him.

To Lucy:

Lucy ran to the guild scanning the perimeter for her blonde idiot. Her eyes landed on Levi and Gajeel and she asked, "Have you guys seen Sting?" Gajeel looked at the desperate girl and answered, "train station. You better go now bunny girl or else you'll miss him." Lucy smirked at him and nodded in appreciation before dashing to her destination. When she finally arrived at the station the train was moving. That was it she lost him. Lucy's eyes watered and she stood there with her face in her hands crying. "I thought you said we were to never meet again" she heard a voice behind her. She gasped and turned around to see the man she fell in love with. She threw her arms around him and held him tight. "Lucy what you heard last night was a misunderstanding I swear-"

"Please don't leave me alone." She pleaded. Sting returned the hug and sighed, "Thank God. I was going to go crazy if I couldn't see you anymore." Lucy was crying harder. "Shhh Blondie, calm down. I'm not going anywhere unless you'll be there." Lucy tried to calm herself and looked into his eyes. "If you want me to stay just say the words" he moved his head closer and he whispered, " so can I stay?" As they were slowly inching closer Lucy whispered, "Did you really have to ask me that?" and their lips met. When they broke apart the first thing she hears is "By the way you look like crap." She slapped his arm. "I mean in a sexy way." Lucy laughed and shook her head, "Oh shut up and kiss me." So he did. The dragon picked up the princess and kissed her lovingly.
