"Lucy, I'm sorry your father is dead."
I drop my phone. Landing with a thud that resonated the room.
Dead silence
Normal P.O.V
Lucy couldn't believe what she was hearing.
Her father is dead. Yea right what a joke. It must be a joke. She refuse to face reality.
"Lucy,If you will please come by the hospital immediately for your father has left a letter for you."
Lucy burst into tears. She dropped to her knees and kept trying to wipe away the tears but to no avail as they kept falling like a waterfall.
"Lucy, honey please come by the hospital right now." The lady try to reach her.
Lucy stood up real quick and grab her phone then ran to the car. running as fast as she can. Wiping away the tears. She hopped in the car and drove off with great speed but still in the speed limit.
She arrived at the hospital and ran inside to the front desk asking for her dad. The lady told her what she needed to know and Lucy continue her rush to the hospital room. She slammed the door open and close but stood frozen once she stepped inside the room.
There her father lay still and... peaceful despite the bruises covering his body.
Lucy starts walking towards her dad with a blank look, not comprehending his death yet. She starts mumbling. "Daddy... Hey daddy look I'm here. I came to visit you. Wanted to make sure your okay but it looks like your sleeping right now. You can stay asleep as long as you promise to wake up by tomorrow morning. I wanted to make you a special breakfast. Daddy... I love you daddy..."
She end up beside him and she stares at him. Slowly her face turns to a look of realization. Everything is coming at her. Her moms death, the dream, the phone call, he is right here before her. He is dead.
"DADDY NOOO! Please don't leave me too. You were the only one left. The only one who showed me so much love, who has always been there for me. I love you so much, I tried my best being the perfect daughter. I did, I seriously did. I didn't want you to be so stress and I wanted you to be be at bliss, to not worry. DADDY I LOVE YOU, PLEASE COME BACK TO ME. DAAAD!" Lucy shouted with frustration and hurt.
A doctor comes walking up to Lucy and taps her on the shoulder. "Your dad has left a letter for you. Here." Lucy turns around to face him, he hands her the letter and she accepts it.
Dear Lucy,
My beautiful little baby girl. I'm sorry to leave you so soon, I'm sorry that you have to go on your own from now on. Lucy I love you so much. No scale can measure my love for you. You have been my shining little light that keeps me going. The day Layla died I honestly wondered how am I suppose to go on with my life. How am I suppose continue, I'll be a wreck without her. Then... I look over and saw you crying beside her. Then I thought. My precious little angel is still here with me. My little girl is here. I will protect her, I will care for her, I will be the hero who saves the day. I'm a love her like I never loved before. I will be the there for her no matter what.
Lucy, baby girl. I want you to face life with a brave and confident face. I want you to live your life to the fullest, to keep going strong. I know that since you received this letter I'm not with you no more, that I must of hurt you so much. I'm a be with your mom now, okay sweetie and we will both be here watching over you. Making sure that harm doesn't come towards you. That you will be safe and you will find someone who will cherish you sweetie, I promise. You are my pride and joy, never forget that. YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN A BURDEN TO ME! Never in your life can I say that you cause me stress, when you honestly didn't. Since a very young age you have been trying so hard to help me with everything. You have tried to carry some of my burdens with you. I'm so glad that you are my daughter, you have been there for me when I needed you to be. I would think I need to see her, my little girl. And here you have appeared walking up to me and giving me a hug out of no where telling me "I love you daddy."
I'm a be honest with you sweetie. I'm crying right now. It hurts to be apart from you. All I wanted was to stay with you until I know I can die without worry. I'm truly so so sorry to have to leave you Lucy. I feel so bad to leave my little angel on her own. Lucy I love you so much, I don't want you to be in pain ever again. To think I would be the one to hurt you. I'm... I'm so sorry. Lucy, My times up. I have to go now. I'm going to meet with mommy and we will be there looking after you.
I love you, My precious little angel.
Lucy P.O.V
I crush the letter to my chest and fell to my knees. "He's gone... He's really gone." The tears won't go away. It seems like they never will.
"Ma'am I'm sorry for your lose. Can you please excuse us as we move your father to a different room and can you please wait outside for your guardian to pick you up.
Guardian? Who is my guardian? I have to live with someone I don't know. I don't want to. It's not right, I can stay home perfectly fine. I'm eighteen, I have no need for a guardian.
I walk to the bench outside the room my father was in and sat down. Suddenly becoming interested at the wall in front of me, just staring at it. Feeling numb all of a sudden. Nothing is here, it's just me and and there is darkness surrounding me.
Lucy what are you going to do now? I don't know, what can I do?! The two most important people in my life are gone!
Then just give up. It's really easy. Just stop living. Go join them. Ha, your funny. I'm not going to take my life away. My dad told me to keep on living life.
You sure about that? I mean, you can keep on living till the end. So make the end closer. No I'm not going to take my lif-
"Lucy."A voice interrupted.
Who is that? I don't know it's too far.
"Lucy." That same voice calls to me again sounding a bit closer.
Tch. Don't listen to that voice okay. Your perfectly fine here in the dark with me. Why can't I call to it? Maybe the voice will help me. Better than you.
"Lucy." This voice is really persistent. I wonder what it wants.
Dang why won't it go away. Maybe someone is calling out for me. Someone who isn't in the dark world.
"Lucy!" Okay. Now this voice obviously wants my attention.
DON'T LUCY! I'm going to answer it. No!
"Yes?" I turn around and my eyes widen. The room started to have color again.
"G-Grandeeney." I look over and see "Igneel." I can't believe it... Wait if they're here then where is Natsu. "W-what are you guys doing here?" I look over a bit and I see a young girl with blue hair next to Igneel but no Natsu. I let out a sigh of relief.
Grandeeney walked up and sat next to me. "Lucy, you've grown so much. Your so beautiful." I miss her so much, It's been so long since I seen the both of them. I'm guessing they came here to see my dad's dead body since they were really close friends.
"Lucy we are here to tell you that you will be living with us." Igneel informed me. Oh my gosh. Living under the same roof of the love of my life that hates me with all his heart. Well, I'm assuming they are my guardians.
"Wait. You guys are my guardians." They both nodded their heads in response. Then I look over to the young girl "Who is the cute little girl over there by you Igneel."
"This is Wendy Dragneel, our youngest daughter." Daughter!? They had another kid? Oh yea, back then Grandeeney was pregnant. Oh she is the baby inside the womb.
"Hey Wendy, I'm Lucy it's nice to meet you." I forced a smile not wanting to look depress when introducing myself. She leans toward my ear and whispers "You don't have to fake it, I'm thirteen I know when someone would fake a smile after a relatives death." Then she leans back and head back to her dad. Man, she gonna make me cry again.
"Lucy, whenever your ready to leave. We will go, okay." Grandeeney reassured.
"I would like to leave now." I told her. Not wanting to stay in this place full of recent bad memory's. Ah, wait I forgot I came in my own car.
We started walking to the entrance and I decided now to mention the car. "So, I'm just going to follow you guys to your house."
"Follow us?"
"Yea, I drove here." They look a bit shock. Why? I'm old enough, it's not shocking. I'm a safe driver... sometimes.
"Okay, follow us then honey." Grandeeny stood up. I stood up after her.
We made it to the house and my oh my this house is BIG. Well, actually not the house per say. More like the 'Land' I guess, or property. Eh, well its all huge. Yea these people live in a flipping mansion and there is a huge pool that's shaped like a dragon in the gigantic back yard. The inside is just as marvelous.
Don't get me wrong my dad and Igneel were business partners until they moved. I am as rich as them but my dad loved the simple life and I myself don't mind either. These people though are above and beyond.
"Lucy sweetie hope our home doesn't make you feel uncomfortable." Grandeeney was leading me upstairs. "Also, you will be sleeping with Wendy since the rooms that weren't occupied were filled with a lot of things. We are still clearing out your room and you will most defiantly be able to sleep in it by tomorrow."
"Of course we would've let you in the guest room but somebody wanted to turn it into a spa room." Igneel clears his throat "Grandeeney-"
"Sweetie I advice you to stop right there because a certain someone wanted to make it into his personal 'man cave'" Grandeeney gave Igneel a cold stare.
"Oh but darling it was-" Igneel froze.
"Do you seriously want to continue this." Grandeeney gave a scary look while holding a knife in her hand. WHERE!? My eyes flew wide open, the size of saucers.
"No honey that's okay. I'm a go and get Lucy room ready and call the movers." Igneel chuckled nervously and took off.
I see Wendy looking a bit Impatient. She must be use to this. Hahaha... ha... ha. There is no way this is considered normal. No matter how many times you see it, it's just not normal.
While I was still freaking out over the scene that just occurred, Wendy tugged my sleeve "Hey earth to Lucy, Let's head to my room." I nod my head and followed her to her room.
Once she open her room, I couldn't help but be amaze at this girl. Her room was a weather scientist utopia. It was amazing with the charts and radar and all these gizmos and gadgets. I can't describe it with words because I have no idea what they are called. It's even more amazing because she has a... bunk bed!
"Wendy, this is amazing. I'm guessing you want to be a weather scientist when you grow up, right?" I can't stop feeling amazed.
"Meteorologists." She smiles at me "The weather scientist is called a meteorologist even though that's not the only kind of scientist for weather. There are atmospheric Scientists, Climatologists, Operational Meteorologists, Physical Meteorologists, and Synoptic Meteorologists." She her face becomes brighter and brighter the more kind of scientist she names.
Wow I would love to have a strong passion for something like her.
"And if you want I can tell what each of them study in and also what all these tools and equipment do." She is getting excited, it's really fun to see. She looks over at me and looks like she realize something. "I'm so sorry Lucy. People aren't usually interested in weather. Only Natsu listens to me but only cause he is my big brother and there are times I can tell he just wants me to shut up." She starts looking down.
"Hey Wendy, I love the idea of being able to have a little sister and so if you feel the same as me. Your big sis will love to hear everything about weather. To be honest it looks really cool and interesting so please by all means enlighten me on all this." I spread my arms out to gesture to all the weather things, which by later I will at least remember the name of some of them.
She lift her face and made the cutest smile. "You bet."
This girl is a freaking intellectual maniac. I'm in my last year of high school and this girl probably knows more than me and I'm one of the smartest students in the school. She knows so much and at such a young age. Also, I learn that she is into medical things but not as much as being a meteorologist
"What grade are you in Wendy?" I have to ask because this girl could be one or two grades under me.
"I'm in seventh grade." Huh? No way! Are the people at the school keeping her a secret to get good publicity about having high grades from students!? Is there more Wendy's at her school? Is the school secretly called Wendy's private school? I mean these people can afford a private school like that.
"What? Wendy you are freaky smart. I'm surprise that you are still in seventh. Why is that?" I have to know if my theory is correct.
"Because I want to be in seventh, I don't want to leave Romeo behind. I'm scared we might not see each other or that he will have some other girl close to him. The very thought of that bothers me a lot." Whoa to young to be having boy problems.
"W-Wendy... Who is romeo?" Okay, I got this. Big sis to the rescue.
"He is my childhood friend and I like him a lot. To be honest I'm hoping we could be something more but he doesn't look interested in being in that kind of relationship." She starts looking down again. Man I can totally relate to this but at the same time I can't. Romeo likes Wendy, Natsu hates me. Hmmm.
I got this. For Wendy! "Listen, Boys can be extremely dense to the point where you just want to grab them and yell at them exactly how you feel. With us girls though and yes we can be at fault for this, is that we are afraid to tell them exactly how we feel which is why we try putting our little hints out there so they can notice. Not saying that's for all boys and girls cause some girls are very straight forward and boys actually understand our hints."
I look to see if she is following. "Are you understanding me so far." She shook her head. Dang I lost her.
"Can you give me a scenario of the dense boy and hinting girl." Ooh I watch anime for this reason... No I don't but anyways...
(A/N Possible spoiler ahead. Anime: IS and OHSHC.)
"Uhm Okay... For example, Ichika is the most dense person on earth. After having many signs that Houki is obviously attracted to him. Also, them being childhood friends and all. Even his second childhood friend Huang shows signs. Not forgetting to mention Cecilia who blushes every second of the day. Then there is my favorite and my second favorite. Let's start with my second favorite Laura, I mean for Pete's sake this girl sneaks in his bed naked even did this big confession to become his 'husband' I mean how dense can you be to not understand. Now let's go to my favorite Charlotte, for starters that girl had a Haruhi effect on me-"
"What's a 'Haruhi effect'" Wendy asked me politely.
"A Haruhi effect is name after a show Ouran High school host club with the main character Haruhi Fujioka looking like a boy and having the show go along with it making me believe that she truly was a boy and having me fall for 'him' just for me to find out at the end of the episode 'he' was a freaking she!" I started huffing and puffing remembering the suffering and anger that episode caused me.
(A/N it ends here)
"Lucy can you just dumb-a-fy it for me. Please, your anime example really is entertaining. I was trying really hard not to laugh but It's hard to get what your saying when you just get carried away." Oh. She wants me to dumb it down, Okay.
"Romeo is to slow to notice your love for him and your probably to shy to tell him exactly how you feel to his face." I look at her and she seems to be looking back in retrospect.
"Was it better to understand when I use you and Romeo as an example." I asked her curious if I got my point across.
"Yes it did, thank you Lucy. Your amazing. To be honest I was a bit skeptical of you living with us but your really nice, funny, and amazing big sis overall." Wendy confessed. I'm so happy I made a wonderful first impression on her.
"By the way, where is you brother?" I haven't seen him yet.
"He is sleeping over Grey's house and he doesn't know about you living with us yet cause he is freaking arrogant to pick up his phone so my mom and dad decide to wait till he comes home from school tomorrow to let him know." Oh man. I have a bad feeling. Living with him was suppose to be my happy moment but I'm just nervous for what he might do.
There was knock on the door and we looked over to see Grandeeney. "Hey I want both of you in bed, now. You both have school tomorrow." She then left but before closing the door, she turned off the lights and whispered a quick goodnight.
"Do you want the top or bottom bunk." Wendy asked me and I told her bottom. She replied with a quick okay, goodnight Luce and went up to the top bunk.
As I lay on the bottom bunk, My mind started to wonder in a place it shouldn't have.
My mom is dead. she has been dead for thirteen years. I have had nightmares about her. My dad has been living a hard life and I tried my best to be the daughter and the mother. Now he is dead. The two most important people in my life are no more. The two people who have shown me so much love are gone. They no longer exist on earth. Does that mean that I'm not loved by anyone? They aren't here. They died bringing their love for me with them. Am I not loved anymore? Am I only hated? I'm... hated.
I start to tear up and felt myself ready to cry out so I hurriedly grab a pillow to muffle the sound of pain, hurt, and sorrow flowing out me. I hear the bunk bed creak, I lift the pillow off my face. Seeing Wendy standing next to the bed.
"Lucy, I knew it. I wonder why you haven't continue to cry on our way home and even being at the house. Here I am thinking she is seriously strong willed but even I know strong people have limits and to those who can't seem to recognize something like that are obviously stupid. Lucy, You can cry to me. I am your little sis remember. I am here. I love you Lucy." Those last words killed me.
I sat up and turn to her, I wrap my arms around her neck and pulled her into a hug. She hugged me back and I nuzzle my head in her neck. "Let it all out. Don't hold anything back because if you keep holding your feelings inside it will destroy you." She whispered to me sweetly.
I listened to her and let everything out. I cried hysterically not able to control a single emotion, not bothering to control a single emotion. Everything just kept pouring out like a long waterfall. I didn't even care about awakening Igneel and Grandeeney. I just kept crying and crying. Letting every single tear drop come out of my eyes until I end up sniffling with no more tears to let go.
That night Wendy slept next to me and I stood awake thinking, Now I know that someone loves me, that I'm not only hated, I can keep going strong most defiantly because this little girl really saved me right now. Thanks Wendy, I love you too little sister.
Unknown P.O.V
The prince finds the princess on the verge of death, seems like all will end but with a stupid true loves kiss brings, happily ever after. I never believed in such a thing. When I was young I would read many children books, all of them has that unrealistic ending.
'Happily ever after' didn't and maybe will never exist in my life. At such a young age, my parents thought of me nothing more than dead weight to carry. If they had a choice they would have left me in the streets a long time ago. Sad. That's what my life is and I continue to keep going, to keep living because I had a small tiny hope that maybe I can get a fairy tale ending.
But being me, being alone. Nobody understands me and I wouldn't want anyone to, that's how painful this has become. I would be the one outcast from all the groups and activities. I was a lone wolf who doesn't have a pack to call family.
To be stuck in a pit of darkness, full of agony, sorrow, pain, hate, loneliness, and all I ever asked was for someone to come be my light in this pit. It can be the most dim light ever I just don't want this dark place to consume me, and right when I was going to be driven mad by this horror place.
She came. A beautiful girl came up to me one day in class and even though it was just that one moment we had communicated, it meant the world to me. We chatted for as long as the class lasted. Of course being me I wasn't talking much at first but this girl kept being persistent , she was just a wonderful girl who I have fallen for, you know in the fairy tales, love at first sight.
But this girl not only made me simply happy, she had also brighten the pit I had fallen into. The light was so bright, no sign of darkness was left behind. As a matter of fact, I found my escape, I found a way out of here.
I decided now that I'm out, I'm going to find her. I will thank her for everything. To her it was a small talk with a outcast but to me it was a moment of salvation.
I hope I can just get a chance to meet her. She moved the next week and I couldn't get a chance to thank her. Now I am also moving to another town, another school, leaving my friends behind. And till this day the very thought of people actually interacting with me, amazes me. Now I'm going to Fairy Tail high. Wonder if my luck will keep getting better.
I only have one more mission to go and that is to thank her, to thank
Lucy Heartfilia.
Ooh a mysterious new character has appeared and he seems have a thing for our unlucky heroine.
I am surprise, if it wasn't for sis I would have procrastinate big time. Thx for reading till next time.
