Galen had been a real pain in the ass to get rid off but with the sight of a fist incased in fire and a fierce glare, the man had no other choice but to back down and leave.
With him gone Natsu moved Lucy to her bed, sitting down with her in his lap and purring softly.
"I need you to tell me what's going on Lucy. Why do you smell like Laxus? Why don't you want Galen near you? Did they hurt you? Is that why you're crying?"
Seeing the anger and worry in his eyes made her tear up even more. It was comforting knowing that Natsu cared for her so much. It was comforting knowing that he was there and holding her as she tried piecing what's she could of herself back together.
Lucy wanted nothing more than to tell Natsu everything. To tell him about her deal with Laxus and how she broke things off. To tell him about how he wanted her back but let her go when she refuses. To tell him that she regretted it but was too scared to do anything about it.
"You know you can tell me anything right, Luce?"
Gazing up into the eyes of the man who had been by her side since the very begging of her new life, Lucy couldn't hold it in anymore. She had to talk to someone. Mirajane and Cana weren't there to vent out too and she knew if she didn't let it out soon she'd burst.
She told Natsu everything. From start to finish. Word for word.
