NATSUS POV
Something's not right today! Lucy smells somehow strange but I can't define what it reminds me of. After some thinking I go over and greet her "Hey Luce"
"Hey Natsu!" She grins widely
"How are you?"
"Fine you?"
"Well, we wanted to go on a mission. Want to tag along?"
"Sure, when?"
"We want to leave tomorrow afternoon"
"Great, how long are we gone?"
"For about 2 weeks. We are hunting some bandits in a village a bit away from here"
"Alright, I guess I'm going to check what I need"
"Today?"
"You should always pack a day before you leave. Then you have enough time to think about the things you packed and can decide if you really need them all or have to add something"
"Whatever" I give her a smile "I have to go back to Lisanna, bye"
"Bye, have a nice day"
*time skip – Lucys apartment*
LUCYS POV
I am happily packing things when I suddenly hear someone knocking at my door. I run down and open. "Natsu? You knock and come through the door? What happened?"
"Luce, I wanted to ask you if you could stay back tomorrow. I know I'm stupid to ask you that after I invited you but it's a very dangerous job and we've got one member too much."
"You're kidding me, right? Are you telling me that I'm too weak?"
"I'd never say that! I'm worried about you"
"Who's coming?"
"Why do you want to know? Anyways, Erza, Gray, Lisanna and I are going"
"Idiot! I defeat Gray once but Lisanna couldn't beat him no matter what she tried. So why is she coming? Do you really think I believe you that you're more worried about me than you girlfriend? That's low!" I stop yelling at him and see him thinking with a shocked expression.

He looks like he realized that I'm right. "Sorry, I'm an idiot. I totally forgot how strong you got on the last half year. I guess my lie hurt you more than the truth will. Actually, we decided that we wanted to go on a mission like in the old days which excludes you, sorry" He tells me bluntly. Is that really Natsu? To me it seems like the person in front of me is a fake.
Tears fall down "Why did you lie to me like that before? Am I in the way of your happiness with Lisanna? You know I support you two"
"No Luce! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you! I …"
"Natsu, please, leave!" I try to close the door but he stops me.
"´Luce, please …."
"F*** leave now!" I shout and shut the door not bothering if I break his fingers, run over to the couch and cry for hours.
The next days I spend with Levy.
*time skip – 2 weeks later at the guilt*
NATUS POV
"Lucy won't forgive me" I tell the others.
"Why do you even care? You don't need her! I'm your girlfriend" Not that discussion again!
"You are and you're the only person I love. However, Lucy is my best friend. She's important to me. You always get jealous of her but there is no reason! Please, try to understand me" Damn, her and her jealousy! That's the reason why Lucy is mad at me in first place! Why did I even do her the favor to ask Lucy to stay behind? I'm an f*** idiot!
I hardly meet Lucy and now I have the feeling she's bothered and needs someone she can talk to but shehas lost her trust in Team Natsu or especially me. I want to help her but don't get the chance to talk to her because she avoids me. Whenever I come she leaves and goes on a solo missions. This sucks!
LUCYS POV
I have to talk with Porlyusica before I can bother Sting with the matter. I mean I'm not even sure if I'm right! I need confirmation asap. Hopefully Porlyusica is here at the moment. I knock the door and wait for an answer. "Who dares to interrupt the silence? Go away I don't want to deal with you!" an angry voice tells me.
"Porlyusica? It's me Lucy. I really need someone to talk to. Please, help me!" I desperately call out.
Slowly the door opens and the old mage looks at me. "Is it about your boyfriend? I'm not some kind of agony aunt, you know" she tells me with a soft voice before leading the way inside.
I take a seat at the bed and tell her about my conjectures. She nods and helps me to confirm the situation.

"What are you going to do?"
"First of all I have to tell Sting. After he knows, I'm going to talk to my father. I know he's one of Jiemmas best friends. Maybe he can help us to ease the situation with him. Well, and when all the big difficulties are cleared I'm going to tell master and my most trusted friends. I know they won't like the situation but accept it for my sake"
"So you stay at Fairy Tail? What if he decides to mark you?"
"mark me?"
"You don't know? Well, dragons and dragon slayer bite you on the neck and place a mark there that show everyone that you belong to them. They can have only one mate in their whole life and can't be parted from their mates longer than 3 days without suffering"
"Sounds troublesome…"I mumble "If he decides to do that, we have to think about the guilds and so on together because that's our future"
"You're right. You should think through that matter together. Do you know when you meet him next time?"
"These days. He should be back from a mission their master gave to them soon."
"If you need help or advice come here. I'll help you, got it? Now get going! You shouldn't walk through the woods when it's getting dark!" Holy shit! She's right it's already getting dark. I didn't think it was already this late. Damn it! I have to get back.
I get over and hug her "Thank you so much! For now I'm leaving but I will come by soon get more information, bye!"
Sorry for the wait! ^^'
I had no ideas how to go on and was pretty busy with school
Thanks for all the nice reviews (I read them all even if I didn't answer them ;))
