I do not own fairy tail
The Real Nightmare

Natsu sat religiously by Lucy's hospital bed every day. The bandages that encased her arm taunting him, torturing his conscious. He couldn't take the rhythmic beating of her heart any longer.
He had just gotten her back. "Goddamnit." He hissed under his breath.
"You know." A new voice entered, making Natsu straighten his slouched chest and stand up from his chair, it was Gray standing in the doorway. "In these situations, people usually pray to god not damn him."
He got up from leaning against the hospital doorway and took the seat beside him, which persuaded Natsu to sit down again. "What are you doing here." Natsu demanded, never breaking eye contact with Lucy's sleeping figure.
"Your not the only one who cares about her Natsu. Putting her in a locked wing is pretty low, I could hardly get in here to visit her, not to mention the rest of Lucy's friends who are just as worried as I am." Gray protested quietly, stepping around Natsu on the thin ice that was left in his reserve. At school, they had caught a rumour that Lucy was on life support an circling the drain, they don't know why or how or if she's even alive at this point; it torments them all.
"I know plenty of her friends, Gray, they were once mine too; yet where are they now? They aren't sticking with her just the same as all of you fuckers abandoned me." Natsu seethed, trying his best to keep calm.
"Natsu, what you did to Lis, it's more complicated than us sticking around with you, you were changing." Gray tried to reason, show the pink haired boss where he was coming from.
Natsu stood up in a hurry, not angrily though, it was obvious to Gray he was trying to contain his anger. "And you think it was easy to forgive you after Ultear?" Natsu spoke, eyeing Gray who stiffened at the name. "You know that those situations are completely different." Gray spit venom as he talked, Natsu inwardly smirked noticing how his former ally was still hot headed. "We all forgans you, Fullbuster. That's the difference between who I was and who I am. I'm not so inclined to forgive traitors, leave." Natsu commanded, Gray knew better to argue and decided to take his leave. The void in the room left by Gray was filled when Cobra entered.

Cobra has known Natsu ever since they were four years old, he's seen him at his best and his worst times. Even with Natsu's emotionless front Cobra could see he hurt in his eyes.
"I won't lose her again." Natsu spoke lowly, menacingly, not exactly noticing Conras presence yet. He span towards the wall in a hurry and knocked over a small nursing tray, angrily running his hands through his hair. "I can't believe I was so stupid! I thought maybe, just maybe, if I brought her back to the places we went as children I could spring her memory back and things could go back to the way they were. I could have just told her! She was so relentless about it and I was stubborn. I never thought she would go this far." He yelled angrily, walking towards Lucy again, almost pacing now, her face as pure and innocent as the day he met her, the first time anyways.
And even when he met her for the second time she still had that Lucy look that he loved so much in her eyes. That curiosity, the spunk, the self awareness and the passion. 4 reasons he needed her to wake up.

He watched her face with interest, and suddenly, her eye twitched. A movement he had not seen in the weeks she had been here. Progress. "Cobra, get the nurse. Now." Natsu commanded and Cobra flew out the room to fetch what he needed.
Natsu felt hope, a emotion he had deeply buried ages ago and told himself that it was unnecessary when Lucy disapeared and he wasn't there for her. An emotion that came slipping through the cracks when he bumped into her in the hallways just weeks ago. An emotion that now had opened his mind and his heart and was pouring out of him.
beep...beep ... beep...beep ...beep...beep ... beep...beep ...beep...beep...
Her heart rate picked up, as did Natsu's as he looked up in a panic, forgetting his cool exterior long ago. His eyes searched the monitor seeing all the numbers rising beyond healthy limits. "no." He said softly.
The the nurse and Cobra ran back through the door, but Natsu's eyes never left Lucy's face. "She's coding! Get me a shock cart and a doctor!"
That didn't sound good, "No." Natsu gasped, still staring at his omnia mea.

"Sir I need you to step aside please if you want me to save her life!" The nurse yelled, and Natsu did as she commanded, his eyes stuck on Lucy "no please." He whispered. Cobra dragged his arm out of the room, passing by a dozen doctors and nurses with many machines running to Lucys room.
"I need 10 milligrams of epinephrine."
"Push it to 50cc"
"Clear!"
"She's not responding, push too 100cc"
"10 more milligrams of epinephrine."
"We're losing her!"
be...
Natsu ran out of the hospital quick enough before anyone could catch the single tear rolling down his cheek.
