LUCY P.O.V.
We finally get to the third floor, and it's a giant room almost like a studio apartment, but somehow seemed bigger. Maybe it was because I've lived in small studio apartments before moving back into my house after all these years.
"Lucy, you can have the bed closest to the bathroom." Natsu gently rested me on the bed as my head lightly touched the pillow.
"Why do you have 2 beds in your room?"
" I have an extra bed for when one of my friends wants to sleep over, and you should just try to get some sleep for now. We'll talk later" He told me before tucking me in. I nodded my head, and I slowly closed my eyes, and drifted off to sleep
NATSU P.O.V.
I let her sleep in my bed, and I thank god my mom cleaned my sheets a couple of days ago. I just need to keep an eye on her so I can find out who did this to her. I pulled out my phone and started dialing a number. It rang for a few moments…
"Hey, I think that I'm going to be gone for a couple of days so can you get me my work that I missed."
"Of course Natsu, but how is she?" Erza says but her silence I can tell she was holding back her anger.
"She's hurt pretty badly, but the saddest part is that she told me that there's been worse incidents. Erza, did you know this was happening to her?"
"No, I didn't but I had a feeling. I just wished I had said something to her. Did she tell you who did this to her?"
"No, she didn't but the minute we find out who did this to her. I'm going to kick their ass." I hear her sigh before thinking about a response.
"If it is a female, you're not hurting her" I rolled my eyes "but if it is a female I will PERSONALLY take care of this myself."
"NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" The thought about how Erza would take care of the situation would make anyone piss their pants.
"Yes Natsu, but for now just take care of Lucy. I will Jellal bring your assignments over and have him talk to the coach."
"Okay thanks, but we need to know who did this." I hear something in the background, I think it's a guy.
"I will definitely start searching starting tomorrow."
"Hey babe, the movie is ready" I heard his voice…. It's Jellal
"ERZA, why is Jellal in your house?" I waited for a response, and I knew she didn't want to talk about it. "It's okay, I won't ask anymore but please keep me updated."
"I will, you should get some sleep." She hung up the phone, and I looked down towards Lucy to make sure she's still asleep. I set my phone alarm to 7:45am, and I laid down in the extra bed.
The next morning…
I hear my alarm going off, and I groan but I'm used to it. I smell something in the air, it's faint, but I smell it. There's bacon sizzling in a pan, and I know who made it. She must have made some before heading to school for the day. I quickly run down the stairs to see a plate full of bacon, eggs, toast, and hashbrowns. I see that Wendy left a note….
Natsu,
I left you two some breakfast that I made this morning. PLEASE, DON'T EAT ALL OF IT! Save some for Lucy! I also left a box of bandages in your bathroom. Remember you have to change them every 8 hours according to Mom's orders.
Love,
Wendy
I smiled because she's the best little sister that anyone could have, and I have to hurry because I need to wake up Lucy. I quickly gathered a small plate for Lucy and ate the rest before going back up to my room.
LUCY P.O.V.
I slowly opened my eyes to see what happened yesterday wasn't a dream, but this blanket smells so much like cologne. I wonder, did he give me his bed? I heard him coming back up the stairs.
"You're up, Luce?" He said softly
"FOR THE LAST TIME MY NAME IS LUCY" I'm really tired of him not saying my name, and I'm tired of repeating myself. I tried to sit up, but it hurts too much. I can't do it. "Ow, that really hurts" His eyes soften and places down the plate.
"Lucy, please let me help you." He quickly gets the pillows from the other bed and puts them behind me. Then he lifted me up and placed me into a sitting position, but it shocks me that he could just simply lift me up. "Is this comfortable for you? You don't feel any pain?"
"No, I don't. Thank you, Natsu" I smiled before he handed me a plate of food. "I'm not really hungry" He gives this worried look. I sighed then took the fork and had a few bites of eggs before pushing the plate away.
"I'll take what I can get, but it's time to change your bandages and put some more medicine on them."
"Oh, so is your mom or sister coming up soon?" He just looked at me confused.
"No, I'm going to do it"
"THE HELL YOU ARE! I'm not letting you touch my body!"
"Lucy, how about I change your bandages and you put the medicine on?" It sounds reasonable, but I don't like the fact he gets to see my body.
NATSU P.O.V.
She agreed and that's when I started to unwrap her bandages to see her wounds. I can hear her trying to muffle her cries. Just hang in there a little longer, I'm sorry I have to do this. Once I finally get them off, I look up to see the tears in her eyes and it kills me but we have the hardest part next.
"Okay Lucy, now you have to rub this medicine on the cuts and it will sting. That's all you have to do then I will put on new bandages." She nodded, and she started to place the medicine and she started crying. I know it hurts, but she's pushing through and I can tell this isn't her first time.
"Natsu, can you please get my back? I can't really lift or twist my arms"
"Of course" She turns around and sees she had a road rash on her back. "Lucy, I'm almost done."
"Okay" She gets out between cries while I finally finish and starts wrapping the bandages around her again. She's so tiny how could someone do this to her…... "Can we watch a movie?"
"Yeah of course, let me turn on the TV" I heard my phone ring and looked down to see a message from Erza.
The situation is going to be handled tonight.
