I do not own Fairy Tail.Nalu, while the most famous and loved ship of FT fans, is not my OTP. I prefer Jerza. But my friend who introduced me to this amazing anime is in LOVE with Nalu. I repeat, in LOVE with Nalu.I was actually quite bored and thoughts of the pairing and my friend, came to mind. So I thought, why not?
Lucy felt uncomfortable. Surrounded by darkness.
Distant voices. Unrecognizable.
But wait...
Was that Natsu's voice? She heard Happy's voice, too!
But, how is she not dead? She thought, she was.
After all, who comes out alive after taking a hit like that?
Someone must have saved her.
Why did she get the feeling, it was Natsu? The one who was always there for her?
She tried to smile.
Tried.
She experienced immense pain, everytime she tried to smile. Tried to do anything!
She couldn't move any of her body parts. That blow really did a number on her.
She tried to open her eyes but...
Sadly failed.
Again and again.
"It's all my fault! I should've gotten there sooner! I should've saved her! I should've-"
"Calm down, Natsu. You saved get from death. What else do you want? You're only human! "
She wanted to call out to them. To thank them for saving her life.
Again.
Unfortunately, her wretched mouth and vocal cord had other ideas.
She tried and tried...
And only managed a whimper.
Suddenly, she felt her small hand slip inside warm, big ones.
Ones, that she recognized the texture of.
She strained to smile.
"You okay, Lucy?" called out Natsu.
She could just imagine his worried expression as he looked at her with big, vulnerable eyes.
Trust her to know that Natsu Dragneel is rarely, vulnerable."Water." she cracked out.
Her throat was dry.
She wondered at being able to talk.
"Yes, of course. Here."
He helped her up. Put the glass full of water near her mouth.
She gulped, greedily.
Once she had enough, she managed to force her eyes open.
She laid them on the guy in front her.
She gasped at his condition.
He looked so worn out! His eyes had dark circles underneath, signalling lack of sleep. His eyes themselves were tired.
"Natsu! what have you done to yourself?" she demanded in a raspy whisper.
"Who cares? You're the one more important here. How are you feeling?"
What?!
He just shrugs her question aside?
How dare he?
She was livid. Filled with lava. With rage.
"I'll tell you how I feel, once you answer my question first!"
"Come on, Lucy! Just tell me how you feel, already. Then you can get back to being weird! "
"Excuse me! You're the weirdest one here!..."
And so, they continued to banter. Their, or rather, Lucy's predicament forgotten. Acting like nothing happend. Back to being, buoyant.But, one thing there is no doubt about, no matter how many obstacles they face, they will continue to save each other, and they will emerge victorious.Together...They will always be together watching each others back, like the team they are....Till death do them apart...
So, how was it? Not too bad, I hope because as I already said, I am not all that fond of this couple. (I do ship them, though.)
I have never written a Nalu fanfic before, nor did read that many of them. So, my apologies if the characters are OOC as I never really gotten in deep with them.
