Hey everyone! This story is getting a little depressing but that's ok… I guess… heh… Sorry! It just makes things interesting… I mean, I really want to spoil the story for you guys, but I can't! You'll just have to read it! Haha… Enjoy!
Disclaimers- I do not own Fairy Tail and its stuff!
"Natsu! Natsu!" Lucy shouted from afar.
"Hey Luce- oof!" Lucy tackled him.
"I've got something exciting to tell you!"
"Uh huh… can you please get off me first?" Natsu asked.
"Oh… sorry. Doesn't this feel like déjà vu?"
"Yeah… every time you're excited about something, this happens. But this time, I really don't want to know what's so exciting." Natsu tried getting up but Lucy pinned him down.
"Natsu! You're my best friend in the whole wide world. What I have to say is important!" She pouted.
"Yeah?"
"Yes! I've got a boyfriend!" Lucy exclaimed.
"What is he? A player? And if you have a boyfriend, why are you sitting on top of me?" Natsu pushed her off.
"What's wrong Natsu? Don't you want to know who it is?"
"I know it's Sting!" Lucy stepped back slightly, her face filled with hurt. "Luce… I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-"
"Mean to what?! Huh Natsu? He's a loving and caring person! I know you despise of him but I thought you were supposed to support me! In whatever I do, you would be there. He's a good guy…" Lucy fought the urge to cry but held it in.
"No he's not Lucy! I… I don't like him! He's not the one for you!"
"You're not my father! You can't tell me what to do! Even if you were, I wouldn't listen anyway… I thought you had my back…"
"Lucy… I always had your back."
"You know what Natsu? I did love you once… But now, I'm not so sure…" The blonde teen walked away. (A/N Sigh… she overreacted…)
"I… I love you too…" But it was too late, she was already gone.
"Lucy! Lucy! Why are you crying? Who hurt you?" Sting frantically asked through the phone.
For some reason, Lucy wasn't soothed by his voice like she was with Natsu, but she had other things to worry about.
"M-my friendship with Natsu is gone… It's all gone Sting!"
"Lucy! Babe. Don't worry. You guys are best friends, surely you'll figure it out." Sting comforted.
"I guess… but things are different now." Lucy froze when she saw her band members inside her room, Natsu behind the door. "Hey babe… I've got to go. Talk to you later. Bye." Lucy hung up, wiped her tears and followed her band members.
"So… what's with the band meeting?" Lucy asked as she sat on the couch of the music room.
"Well, if you guys don't already know, today is the last day of the school term." Jellal started.
"Really? Awesome!"
At least I don't have to see Natsu for 3 weeks…
"Yeah but since Regionals is exactly in 1 moth, I've decided that during the holidays we will need to practise. I've organised everything and we will be going to the beach for the whole of the holidays." Jellal explained.
Well… that's my plan gone out the window…
"Why the beach…? You know I hate hot weather!" Gray whined.
"Well suck it up princess!" Natsu snapped.
"Ok guys! Calm down… School ends in like 5 months so we only have one chance to do this… Meet at Erza's family café on Sunday. I paid for a small bus to take us there and back so you guys need to cash in money too… You got that Gajeel?"
The muscular boy grunted and stood up. "So are we dismissed yet boss?"
Jellal nodded and everyone filed out of the room, leaving Natsu and Lucy.
"Luc-"
Lucy turned her head away from him, avoiding all eye contact. She stood up and began making her way to the door.
"Lucy… wait…" Natsu hugged her, stopping the blonde in her tracks. She bit her lip as hard as she could, wincing at the pain. "I love you Lucy. Please, please say you love me too…"
Lucy pushed his arm off of her. "I no longer love you Natsu. I hate you. Stay away from me." She cringed at her own words.
Natsu stepped back from her, the words slicing him like Erza's swords. "I'm sorry I was in your way." He pushed passed her and ran off.
Little did he know, Lucy fell to her knees soon after and cried. Her own words caused her more pain than Natsu could imagine.
Sitting on the bus heading to the beach, Lucy sat at the front of the mini-van-like vehicle as Natsu sat at the back with everyone else. She leaned her head against the window, her fingers tapping to the music played in her earphones. A few taps on her shoulder awoke her from the little daze she was in.
"Hey… What's been happening between you and Natsu-nii?" Wendy asked.
"Nothing really… It's… complicated." Lucy shook her head.
"You can tell me… Natsu-nii has been a major sour puss at home too."
"I have a boyfriend… and it's not Natsu." Lucy ignored the small girl's expression of surprise. "It's Sting. Natsu confessed to me and what else was I supposed to do? I have a boyfriend now and so I had to tell him the truth."
"But that isn't the truth is it Lucy-nee? You do love Natsu-nii. Why didn't you just tell him? Why did you agree to go out with Sting?" Wendy bombarded her with questions, seeking for answers.
"I don't know! I don't know ok…? I loved him so much but he never showed any interest in me. But just when my life was set and I was happy, he just had to ruin it by telling me he loved me." The teen let her tears run freely, unaware of a male sitting in the seat behind them.
"But what you don't know, is that Natsu has loved you ever since I can remember. You broke his heart. I don't think I've ever seen a grown man as broken as him." Gray explained.
"But that's just his fault, isn't it?"
"No… because if he didn't tell you, it would eat him alive. Just at least… at least try to talk to him again. He misses you Lucy." Gray stood up, gave Lucy a worried smile and made his way back to the other band members.
He… misses me. Let's be honest Lucy, you still love him don't you?
"Thanks… I really appreciate it. I… I think I love Sting."
Dun dun DUUUUNN! I think we all by now who's saying this but who is she saying this to? I love doing this… It's kinda like a cliffhanger but not. At least you guys are sitting in the edge of your seats… right?
