NORMAL P.O.V.

The guild watched their beloved celestial spirit mage try to act happy. She was smiling, but everyone could see how fake it was. Her eyes were glassy like the moment you mention anything about Laxus, she would crumble.

"Lucy, are you ok?" Mira asked.

"Yeah I'm fine." Lucy replied.

"You don't need to pretend you know?"

Lucy's smile left her face. Tears silently streaked done her face. She took a seat and put her head in her hands.

"Mira. I don't know what to do." Lucy cried.

"Why don't you try talking to him?" Mira suggested.

"Do you really think that'll work?"

"I'm not 100% sure but it won't hurt to try."

Lucy gave her a small smile and wiped her tears away. She got up from her seat and walked to Laxus who was surronded by the Raijinshuu.

"Uhh... Guys? Could I talk to Laxus for a second?" Lucy asked.

"Why?" Evergreen asked.

Lucy looked annyed for a bit. Than she leaned in and whispered something into Evergreen's ear.

"Hmph! I'll leave for now." she said.

"What did you say?" Bixlow asked.

"Nothing. Now can you guys leave?" Lucy asked.

Freed and Bixlow shook their heads. Lucy sighed and whispered something into their ears. They turned red and left.

"You wanted to talk?" Laxus asked.


LAXUS' P.O.V.

I saw Lucy smile. It was fake. Anyone could see that. As soon as Mira said something, tears forced their way out of her eyes. She still looked beautiful but it was heart wrenching watching her cry. I wanted to run up to her and make her smile. Evergreen, Bixlow and Freed were sitting around me talking about how they are so much better than the other members. I saw Lucy walk up to me.

"Uhhh... Guys? Can I talk to Laxus for a second?" she asked.

"Why?" Evergreen asked.

God dammit! Just leave so I can talk to her. I thought.

Lucy looked annoyed for a moment. Than her face lit up. She leaned down and whispered something in Evergreen's ear.

"If you don't leave, I'll tell everyone who you like." Lucy whispered.

I watched Ever's reaction. She was blushing slightly and left.

"What did you say?" Bixlow asked.

"Nothing." Lucy sang. "Now can you guys leave?"

Freed and Bixlow shook their heads. I was getting pissed now. Lucy tippy toed and whispered something into Bixlow's ear.

"If you don't leave, I'll tell Mira who you like." Lucy sang.

"I think Mira needs some help at the bar." Lucy whispered into Freed's ear.

I raised an eyebrow. So these idiots have someone they like? I almost laughed. Bixlow and Freed left.

"You wanted to talk?" I asked.

"Yeah." she replied sitting across from me.

She didn't look afraid of me. Most of the people in town were terrified because of how I tower over them, but this girl just sat down like she's done it a million times. Oh wait, she has. Gramps said that she's my girlfriend and soon to be mate.

"Can you tell me about the time we spent together?" I asked.

Her face lit up.

"All of it? As in like, the VERY first time we met?" she asked.

I nodded.

"Well, as Makarov told you, you tried taking over the guild. That was when we first met. We didn't talk when we first met. Evergreen turned me and some other girls to stone while you were who knows where. You were using a thought projection and you kinda put your arm around my shoulder while trying to bribe Makarov." Lucy explained.

I mentally flinched but nodded for her to continue.

"After Natsu and Gajeel beat you, Makarov excommunicated you from the guild. The guild didn't see you after that. I left the guild because of a dream that I had let Fairy Tail down."

"That was a stupid reason." I commented without thinking.

"Well if I didn't than I wouldn't have met you." Lucy pouted.

I couldn't help it. I let out a chuckle.

"Sorry blondie. Go on." I laughed.

"You're blonde too." she murmured. "Anyways, I met you shortly after I left. You trained me for a couple years. You were the first person to know that I'm a wolf slayer. Makarov let you come back to the guild for training me. But you didn't want the guild to know who you were so I made a fake name for you."

"What was the name?" I asked.

"Uhh... Look at Natsu and Gray fight!" Lucy said avoiding the question.

What was the name you gave me?" I asked again.

"Nathan." she said.

"That's a stupid name. Like you." I said without thining again.

"Baka Laxus!" she yelled.

"You're loud. How could I like a chick like you?"

Her happy face flattered. She looked down at her feet. Her bangs were hiding her eyes.

Crap! I can't believe I said that! I thought to myself.

"Sorry. Can you tell me more?" I asked.

She was still looking down at her feet. She looked at me. And than hit me on the head.

"Baka! No! Get some other person to tell you!" she shouted running out the guild.

I was tempted to chase after her but I was afraid I maight make it worse. I rubbed my head and banged it onto the table.

"Laxus? What happened?" Mira asked.

"None of your business woman." I grunted.

"Tell me what happened."

I glance up at Mira. She had a concerned expression on her face. I lifted up my head.

"I made Lucy upset." I mumbled.

"What did you say?" Mira asked.

"I asked how I could like such a loud annoying woman like her."

"That's not good. She's been trying her hardest to stop being so annoying and loud."

"Really?"

"Yeah. When you were together as a couple together, she tried making you as happy as possible. She even asked what everyone about what you liked so she could get you the best birthday present."

"Shit. I really messed up." I said facepalming myself.

"You should talk to her." Mira suggested. "It's the least you could do."

I sighed and got up from my seat. I felt everyone's stares.

"Fight me Laxus!" Natsu shouted.

"Move. I'm busy." I replied eletrocuting him.

I sniffed my way to Lucy's apartment and climbed in from her window. She was sitting on her couch holding a pillow close to her body.

"Go away Laxus." she sniffed.

"No." I replied standing in front of her.

She wasn't looking me in the eye.

"Look at me." I said.

"No." she replied.

"Look at me."

Lucy shook her head. I let out a frustrated sigh and picked her up like a child. She was sitting on one of my arms while the other one was wrapped around her small waist. She yelped in surprise.

"I'm sorry." I mumbled. "For calling you loud and saying how could I posibbly like you."

She looked at me wide eyed.

"I forgive you." she breathed. "Now can you put me down? It's embarressing."

I felt reluctant to let her down. I sat on the couch and lowered her onto my lap sideways. She turned red.

"L-Laxus! I didn't mean I this!" she stuttered.

I chuckled.

"Well I don't want to stop teasing you just yet." I said.

She turned redder and looked away. I wrapped my arms around her delicate waist hugging her close.

I promise one day I'll remember you Lucy. I thought.
