*yawn* A bit sleepy, but here you are, guys! Day Fifty-Two!
Mira: Yay!
Day Fifty Two
Missing You
Dear Natsu,
You idiot!
A note? Really? That's ALL you left?
You can't just LEAVE me like that! Well, what are you waiting for? Come back already!
Sincerely,
Lucy
...
Dear Natsu,
I miss you a lot, you know.
I miss your smile. I miss your laugh. I miss the way you made everything seem okay.
I guess I sounded kind of mean earlier. I'm sorry. But I'm still mad.
I just want you to be here. Then everything will be okay. Right? Right. You don't just make everything seem okay. When you're here, I know everything will be okay.
So come back. Please?
With love,
Lucy
...
Dear Natsu,
It's been a month now. An entire month! Can you just come back now?
I'm lonely, Natsu...
Sincerely,
Lucy
...
Dear Mr. Flame Brain,
You really are an idiot.
How could you just leave like that? And not take me with you? You took Happy! What about me? How could you just leave me on my own?
I don't have the guild anymore, Natsu. But I always thought I'd have you. Always.
Now I don't. You left me.
And I'm alone.
You know that, right? Completely alone. I've got no one. My mom's dead, my dad's dead, and now Fairy Tail's gone and you abandoned me.
I know I should make friends, but how? I've already got friends but they all left me. I'm in love with a man who ran out on me and only left a note. So how am I supposed to make more friends? It's not like they'll last any longer!
You have no idea how this feels, Natsu. I can't handle this much longer. Oh, Mavis. Please come back. Please come back soon. If you don't, I don't think I'll be able to do anything ever again.
Please...
Sincerely,
A very lost and hopeless Lucy
...
Dear Natsu,
I'm tired.
I'm so tired. I've had the longest week. You wouldn't believe it.
I've got a new job now - something to live off of. You know I'm keeping track of everyone, right? I think I'll talk to them one day. Maybe.
I guess they probably don't want to hear from me anymore. I know you don't. Obviously you don't want anything to do with me anymore, do you?
Of course you can't answer that, though. I can't eve. Send this freaking letter because you didn't tell me where you were going? You just left! Like I didn't matter at all to you...
I hate you, Natsu.
Lucy
...
Natsu,
I miss you so much.
What am I supposed to do when I feel like this?
It hurts, Natsu...
Please come back,
Lucy
...
Natsu,
I think in should stop writing these.
It hurts too much anyway.
It's been eight months now, and not one freaking word from you. I guess you really aren't coming back after all. I should've given up hope awhile ago, I guess.
So, yeah. This is probably my last letter.
Bye,
Lucy
...
Dear Natsu,
I can't stand it.
I can't stand it, Natsu!
I miss you. Oh, I miss you so much.
I was right. I knew I was right. You're really not coming back, are you?
You're not coming back.
I'm never going to see you again.
You have no idea how much that hurts, Natsu... I can't stand that thought. I want to see you again... I just want to see you again.
Is it a bad thing that your smile is a bit more vague in my memories? Is it a bad thing that your voice is harder to recall?
Or is it a good thing?
Because if I forget you, at least it won't hurt so much.
Lucy
...
Natsu,
I give up.
I quit writing these stupid things.
It'll be easier if I forget you anyway.
Love,
Lucy
...
Natsu stared at the letter in his hand.
He'd read them all. Every single one. Now he was shaking, tears brimming in his eyes.
He never had any idea how much he had hurt her.
"N-Natsu?" a groggy voice mumbled, and Natsu's head snapped up. There was Lucy. She looked confused at first, but quickly caught sight of the letters.
Her eyes widened.
But before she could say anything, Natsu was talking. "Luce," he started, barely a whisper. The rest of the words tumbled out on top of each other. "I'm sorry - I'm so sorry, I had no idea, Luce... I had no idea it would hurt you so bad... I thought you'd have the guild, I don't know... I..."
But she was crossing the threshold now, coming towards him, furious tears in her eyes. And then suddenly she was kissing him.
Her hands were in his hair, her lips were on his, she was melting into him, and she was crying. It was easily the best moment in Natsu's life - or it would have been, if she hadn't been so heartbreakingly upset.
She pulled back, and now her tears wet not only her own cheeks but his as well. "I love you, idiot," she choked out. "You're not supposed to leave the person who loves you! Th-that's not how it works, you moron!"
And then she was sobbing into him, and he was holding her.
"Never again," he promised, gently lifting her chin. "I'm never going to leave you again."
And he kissed her again.
It was a little sloppier this time, but it felt amazing nonetheless. And Natsu knew he would hold true to his promise. He knew he would.
After all, he was pretty sure he loved Lucy as much as she apparently loved him.
And he didn't want her to ever have to miss him again.
