Normal POV
When she heard Natsu talking all about his memories with him and Lisanna, it felt like something was stabbing her directly in the heart. He seemed so happy, and she wanted him to be happy, but he was happy with Lisanna, and she couldn't really be happy for him, which just upset her even more. She felt like telling him how she felt regardless, but it just didn't seem right, after all, he barely knew her know. And by the time he remembers he'll have a firm relationship with Lisanna, she thought. So instead of going to the guild like she usually did, she stayed home like she had been.
Something must have changed Lucy's mind on the way, because she ended up going there to see the pink-haired goof ball anyway. After all, it would be rude to just leave, she should at least say thankyou for saving her. She quickly headed to the guild, excited to have a reason to go for once. She finally had her usual bounce back in her step as she headed over to Fairy Tail.
When she got to Fairy Tail, she was a little dismayed to see Natsu over by the table with Lisanna, before she realized that it was only natural that he would be by her. So, instead of going up and thanking him like she had planned, she turned and was just about to leave when she hears something inside her head telling her to stay. She turned back around, only to find that it wasn't in her head, but rather right behind her.
She stared at Natsu and the way he peered at her anxiously. "Oh, well, I just came to say thanks for saving me yesterday. I'm sorry if I kind of ruined your date," Lucy said sheepishly. "Huh?" Natsu stared at her very confused before he finally figured out what she'd meant. "Oh, that thing, it was no problem. Actually, I was just looking for a reason to get up and stretch my muscles." He blurted the last part out quickly, since it wasn't what he was planning on saying. He felt like banging his head on the nearby pole. He had meant to confess to her, so maybe they could spend some time together, but instead he made her look like a distraction.
Lucy looked down at her watch, looking for an excuse to leave the awkward conversation. "It's that late already?" Lucy asked, genuinely surprised. Somehow she had managed to spend a whole hour here, just waiting for the conversation to pick up. "Sorry, I have to go," she said quickly before running out the door. She really did have stuff to do. She promised one of her old friends that she'd meet up with them for lunch today. She glanced at her watch again. Perfect, just enough time to get home and change, she thought.
She had just gotten changed and was planning to head out when she saw Natsu just sitting on her bed patiently, something Natsu's don't often do. "What do you want Natsu," she said exasperated, before remembering that he had lost his memory. "Did you break something?" He shook his head, choosing not to use his words. "Did you want something?" When she asked this, he nodded his head furiously. "What do you want?" She asked, she didn't have time for this. "Guess!" He said playfully. "Natsu, I don't have time for this, I have to leave and go see an old friend of mine." After she said that, he gave her the usual Natsu pout. "No!" he shouted grabbing her hand before she was able to open the door.
"Ughhh," Lucy groaned, "What do you want Natsu?" She was at the end of her rope right now. "I want to spend time with you," he said, peering up at her with his dark, onyx eyes. They melted away all of her frustration, and Lucy was torn. Should she spend the day with Natsu, her secret and somewhat forbidden love, or with her old friend she hadn't seen in a while, and might not get to see again? Both were possibly once in a lifetime opportunities. Lucy decided to just take Natsu with her, he loved eating and they could all have fun after words. "Come on Natsu, if you don't hurry up, I'll be late!" She smiled and looked back at him, but turned around just before his grin spread across his entire face.
