I know that I posted this chapter before but, I needed to amend things in this chapter so, take this and wait for the next one!
Chapter 10
One tear escaped the blonde's eyes and then was followed by others. She didn't know why they were falling, they betrayed her and she was the one she had to be strong. She hated being weak especially when it concerned her past and how she had to suffer. She quickly wiped them and looked down to the ground continuing to hear the salamander.
Natsu stood in front the grave giving the blonde and the trees his back."It's.. so amazing to be back to the city, you know.." Natsu finally spoke earning the blonde's attention. "Even though I forced myself.. I feel relief about something like that" he smiled looking up to the sky. Natsu paused a little looking at the pure blue sky "It.. has to be this way, no matter what happened" he finally stood up. "See you later son, I will be back tomorrow" Natsu gave the last smile before twisting his body to head to the exit. Natsu was shocked when he moved his body, he found the blonde standing straightly in front of him, staring at him with her big brown eyes and her fingers were snarled together.
He paused not knowing what should he say, did she listen to what he said? He was frozen in his place not knowing what to do. Lucy finally took a step to the front lowering her head to the ground trying to hold her tears that was about to fell down to her cheeks. She took a deep breath then looked at the salamander. "L-let's pray for.. Haru together" she stated looking at the dragon slayer's eyes and then passed beside him sitting down on her knees waiting for the pink haired to come and sit next to her.
Natsu didn't know what was going on but what he believed that she really really heard him talking to Haru. The both of them raised their hands and started praying. After that the both stared at the grave not talking a single word because they didn't have anything to say. Suddenly the blonde decided to talk but kept looking at the ground.
"I.. I was rude.. I'm sorry" she apologized to Natsu imagine that! Natsu didn't believe what he was hearing, she talked to him. She actually apologized to him and above that she told him that she was rude. Did he wake up this morning or he was simply dreaming?!
"W-w-why are you saying t-that?" he asked as he felt confused around the blonde as he looked at her while she was looking at the ground.
"Just.. I wanted to.." she said standing up and walking away from the pink haired. Natsu stayed in his place staring at her back while she was walking. He wanted from someone to pinch him to wake up.
"Good morning, minna" stated the pink haired as he entered the place rubbing the back of his head as he walked towards the barmaid.
"Ah, you are late today" stated Mira looking at the dragon slayer holding a small cloth that was used to clean the table. Natsu didn't answer that he just sat down looking at the table's wood as he kept thinking of what happened a minute ago. And think of what will happen next. He just wanted to rest, that's all.
"You seem strange today" spoke the red head looking at Natsu. Natsu looked at her shaking his head saying it's nothing and returned his head to the white haired in order to order something to drink or even eat. Natsu looked right and left searching for somebody.
"What are you doing?" asked the scarlet mage.
"Where's Gray?" he asked unable to find the black haired man who had just came waking him up this morning and he failed.
"He went with his son to the toy's shop" answered the barmaid while preparing the order to Natsu. After a long silence between the three the barmaid finally decided to spoke after giving Natsu his drink.
"Ah, Natsu and Erza, I totally forgot to tell you" she looked at the both mages earning their attention. "There's a party today at the guild. We made it to fresh up" the barmaid said.
But before she says another word the pink haired talked "I'm not going" he refused to go.
"Hey! You didn't let me even complete my talk" Mirajane yelled at him puffing her cheeks in annoyance.
Natsu looked up at her "I don't want, I can't force myself in doing something I don't want to do" he explained making the others move a little by his words.
"Natsu, I beg you for the last time to not be like that.. you don't know what you are doing to us!" Erza got angry at him while Mira was watching and think about the both's talk. Natsu left his drink in the table raising his head to look at the the scarlet mage.
"What? What am I doing?" he asked coldly.
"Oh really, what are you not doing?!" she asked raising her hands in the air as she raised both brows. Natsu started to get annoyed of something like that as he finally decided to stand up and leaves the place. Erza and Mira's eyes widened as he started to move.
"See! When someone speaks to you, you get angry and leaves the place immediately!" Erza stated feeling really really annoyed. The white haired stood up telling the Titania that she will follow him.
"Natsu.. Natsu wait" the barmaid called after the salamander trying to stop him. She finally caught him and stopped him by grabbing his arm. Natsu took a long breath looking down at the ground. Mira gave a small smile. "Come on, let's take a seat in some place"
After they sat in some random cafe Natsu was staring the whole time from the window not giving any attention to anyone who comes near them. "Natsu" the barmaid finally talked. Natsu looked at her from the corner of his eyes then returned his eyes again to the window.
"Are you still avoiding Lucy?"
Natsu didn't answer that question he just stared and the more he stares the more the barmaid gets confused. "I know that hurt-"
"You don't know anything" he simply said looking at her making her eyes go wide. "You simply don't know.."
"Natsu.."
"You guys think that.. it's something really simple to lose.. a part of you but, it's more painful than you think" he stated looking down at the table with those cold eyes of his. "Move on, forget about what happened, try to build a new life, trust your friends, try to find new love.. these things are only said to satisfy the one that advice not the one who is hurt" he said feeling that he is breaking apart again.
"Please.."
"Actually, I.. don't want to move on" Natsu wiped his face looking at the barmaid "I want to feel the pain every second in my life cause I don't want to lose anyone else"
