Chapter 20

The next few days were really busy. No one seem to notice how time had flew so fast, next week it will be their graduation already, and this week they are preparing for the whole program, Natsu will be finishing 1st among the senior class and 2nd was Lucy, of course.

"Congratulations Blondie!" Natsu said smiling and placing both his hands on her waist.

"No, congratulations to you my genius.". Lucy said, smiling back at her fiancee.

Lucy was at ease now that Sting was arrested for Trespassing, Attempted Homicide and Sexual Harassment. Before the police shoved him inside the car you would get a glimpse of his face which was totally unrecognizable. It was full of bruises and a black-eye. (thanks to someone we know... hehehe).

Beside being busy with school, Natsu was also busy with Fiore or Dragneel Empire, their sales on his new business, Dragon Skin (mentioned in Chapter 11) , was topping the world market. Countries from Asia, Europe and Australia were bagging supplies like crazy. As expected as the Vice President, Natsu needs to be in the office often.

"So wanna grab lunch Luce?" Natsu asked glancing on his watch. It was 12:30.

"Sure. Erza and the others would be a little late because of some preparations."

"That would be better." Natsu said. He placed an arm around her waist and drew her closer.

"What?"

"So I'll have you all to myself". Natsu said planting a kiss on her cheek.

Dugdug dugdug

Lucy smiled with a light tint of pink on her cheek. "Whatever"

The couple then walked to the cafeteria hand in hand. As always they would drew attention. The Monster Couple, that's what they were called. Since that incident with Sting they were already infamous. Boys stayed away from Lucy as possible, with the exception of the Dragon Slayers. Why wouldn't they? They would approach Lucy to ask for directions or answer on a homework, then there comes Natsu glaring, his eyes saying: Back of. My wife.

Lucy was about to ask Natsu what he wants to eat when his phone rang.

"Moshi moshi?" Natsu asked as he brought his phone to his ear. "Hello? Oh Lisanna?"

Lisanna?. Lucy thought.

"Wait, what? Can't it wait tomorrow? I see. I'll be there. Give me 10 minutes". Natsu then shoved the apparatus back in his trousers.

"Ahm, listen baby?" Natsu began turning to Lucy. "I need to rush to the office."

"I understand. But who's Lisanna?"

"My new secretary."

"Really?"

"Yeah, she' an old friend needin a job so I offered her the slot".

"Are you sure?" Lucy asked looking at him skeptically.

Natsu chuckled and cupped her chin. "Are you jealous at that state Blondie?"

"Jealous your ass Pinky. Get outta here".

"Sure" Natsu kissed her quickly but sweetly. "See you at home. Bye."

"Yeah. Bye".

Natsu turned and ran out of the premises. That was the last day they had really talked more tha 20 minutes.


Natsu became so busy he had no time to come back to school. When Lucy woke up he's already on the way to the office and at night he would be coming home late or not at home at all. Lucy was growing impatient with each passing day. She hates being ignored, especially if it's Natsu.

She decided to visit him one day at the "Empire". She didn't call or told him that she was gonna stop by. She wants to surprise him and maybe even finally confess her love towards him. She was excited.

Lucy entered the building with a smile plastered on her face. People around started to notice her and greeted her with respect. She's the future wife of the building owner anyway. She asked one of the guards directions to Natsu's office.

"Excuse me. But where is Mr. Dragneel's office?"

"Pardon me Ms. Heartfilia, but which Mr. Dragneel?"

"Oh, Natsu Dragneel".

The guard then directed her to take the elevator to the 17th floor because the whole floor was Natsu's office.

As Lucy stepped out of the elevator she proceeded to approach the woman who appeared to be the receptionist. The woman had whited hair and had that cat-like face, kinda like Happy's.

"Excuse me. Is Natsu inside?"

"Do you have an appointment?" Asked the receptionist without looking up.

"Ahm, well none at the moment." The receptionist looked up to her recipient.

"Lucy-sama! I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you". The girl said standing up and bowing apologetically.

"It's okay, uhm?'

"Carla, ma'am".

"Yes, thak you Carla-chan. Is natsu in?"

"Yes he is ma'am. Please do proceed"

"Thank You."

Lucy walked to the door which was named: Natsu Dragneel, Vice President. Lucy pushed the barrier gently. She saw Natsu standing behind his desk talking to a girl with short white hair, he had a velvet box on his hand. Lucy was about to go in and surprise the Pink-head when she overheard their conversation.

"Natsu. Of course I would!" said the girl

"Thanks Lisanna. You're the best." Than Natsu hugged her.

Lisanna?! What?! Did he just freaking proposed to her?! So that's why he was avoiding me! That's why he's always at the office!

"I 'll tell our friends about this. I'm sure they would be glad to help". Natsu released her and looked at her.

"Lisanna, I_" He was cut off when he heard a sob. HE whipped his head towards the door.

Lucy!

Lucy slammed the door shut and ran towards the elevator. She saw Natsu running after her as the elevator doors closed, but he was too late. Tears streaming down her face. her heart being churned in all the wrong places.

Lucy you're an idiot! He never loved you! And never will!

Happy was at the entrance of the building inside the car. Lucy then climbed in.

"Happy take me home now! Please.!"

"What about Natsu-sama?"

"Forget about him. Please! Take me home"

Happy saw the sadness in his mistress' eyes and didn't need more explaining on what was happening. But before Happy could step on the accelerator Natsu was running out of the building.

"Happy! Don't you dare!" Natsu shouted. "Lucy? What's going on? Hey! talk to me dammit!"

"I'm sorry Natsu-sama" Happy said giving him a sympathetic look. then he slammed his foot on the gas pedal. The car speeding off.

"Lucy!" Natsu roared.


Lucy packed up her things as fast as she can before Natsu could catch her there. She asked Happy to bring her back to the Heartfilia Manor. Lucy explained to her father what was happening. Jude Hearfilia called Natsu that night when his daughter was asleep.

"Dragneel, explain."

After Natsu has explained everything Jude decided that the couple needs space and time apart to think and ponder about the things happening.


Graduation came and Lucy never showed up. She didn't answer any of Natsu's calls. Never replied to his messages.

I was so stupid falling for the likes him! It hurts! Giving myself completely to him. Stupid! stupid! I'm alone again, and will always will be. Don't worry Lucy, you'll get through this. I hope. . .

Lucy pulled the covers over her head as the tears came back to her eyes.
