Chapter16
The girl looked down at the bag in front of her. It's been a week already since the accident and she is finally getting admitted out from the hospital. But what's the use of it; she has broken one arm and one leg. She was also lectured by the doctors to spend some months without doing missions because her body can't bear what she is doing anymore. Her body became so weak and couldn't continue in what she is doing.
She took a deep breath as she started to fold her clothes inside of her small bag. She came to this city so she could move to the other city and do the job but she ended up entering the hospital and being injured without even fighting. That actually didn't bother as much as it bothered her Lucas's treatment to her.
He has been acting really strange this week and she doesn't know what was wrong with him. That's right he had taken care of her the whole week but, he was still acting strange towards her. He told her that he has given up on loving her but; it didn't really make her relieved. She sighed as she buried her face down on her hands. She doesn't understand a thing at all. She snapped her head towards the door as she heard someone knocking out of it.
"Come in," she said as she looked at the sudden figure to realize that it was the blonde Lucas. He looked at her with the same cold expression to realize that she was doing her hair into a long ponytail and wearing a shirt and shorts that was actually short.
"Are you ready?"
She nodded her head slowly as she tried to stand up on her leg. Because she had a broken left leg and left arm, it was hard to grab the hilt and walk. So, she was sitting down on a chair with wheels. She tried to grab her bag but, Lucas grabbed it first and put it on his back.
"I can carry it!"
"It's alright," he grabbed her arm and started helping her to sit down on the chair.
They were acting really weird to each other while they were ignoring meeting each other's eyes.
"Ah," Lucas started to push the chair out of the room and then remembered something. "Sabertooth made you party celebrating for you admittance." Natsumi smiled and looked at the blonde.
"Really?"
"Yeah, they knew that fairy tail is in Tenrou island that's why they decided to make you a party themselves."
Natsumi looked down at the ground as she heard 'Tenrou island' topic. She took a breathed and opened her mouth to talk.
"Why did you leave Magnolia and came here? You could have entered the exam."
Lucas looked at her pink hair of hers as she said that and then looked at the way in front of them. "I have no intention in becoming an s-class mage."
"I was actually worried about you, Natsumi-sama." The white haired girl said as she looked at the pink haired girl who was sitting down on the chair and sharing looks to her friends.
"I'm fine now," she smiled warmly to her as she started to look at the others who were holding drinks and staring at her. The blonde guy handed her an orange juice.
"Take this, it's good for your body." He gave her the juice and she took it from him. The girl stared at the cup for a moment and raised her head to scan the place searching for the blonde guy who was in the same guild as hers. She realized that he was sitting far away from her chatting with some people and laughing.
"He is really a good man."Natsumi snapped her head towards the voice's direction to realize that Yukino was the one to talk. She opened her mouth to talk but didn't find the perfect words to spell and kept staring at the girl who was smiling.
"He had really did what a normal person can't do." She said again as she looked at him. "He was really worried about you and did everything he could to protect you." She feels that she was guilty for something she can't even remember. She feels that a lot of things were missing and she doesn't remember them. They were telling her things she doesn't recall happening.
In order not to share that kind of talk she doesn't understand, she nodded her head slowly as she looked away from the white haired girl.
They spent the night eating, drinking and laughing. The enjoyed the company they had with sabertooth but they knew and believed that whatever they do, they won't be like fairy tail because fairy tail is love for them.
Later at night, the pink haired girl and the blonde decided to leave but something stopped them. The rain was falling down on the city and the trains stopped once again.
"You're really unlucky!" the blonde Sting said as he looked out of the window of the guild. "What a day?!"
Lucas raised his head to look out of the window to find that the water was pouring down. He moved his head to look at the pink haired girl to realize that she was having the same face that she usually has when the rain starts to fall.
"We have to stay another day then." He calmly said to her while he was looking at her. She moved her head to nod slowly and didn't say anything. At the end, they decided to stay another day after all.
Natsumi and Lucas decided to stay in a hotel near the sabertooth which was the nearest hotel so it won't be too far for Natsumi to go to.
Lucas was pushing Natsumi's chair while he wasn't talking at all. Natsumi didn't bother talk to him because of what he said days ago. It wasn't like she wanted to talk to him like she used to but at least they were talking normally. One word, two words but now he is always silent.
She was holding umbrella while he was wearing a hood to protect his hair until they reached the hotel. The both of them went to their own room. Natsumi decided to go to her room and stay there to the next day and didn't want to do anything except for sleeping because of this long tiring day. Even though she didn't move from her chair the whole day but, she is so tired from thinking and a lot of things.
She left the blonde at her door and went inside of the room trying not to think about anything so she could fall asleep.
As the girl closed the door, the blonde kept staring at the wooden door while he was burying his hands in his pockets. It was so hard for him to see her every seconds, it was so hard to live like that while he was trying to get rid of his feelings for her. He hates it but, he won't do the same he did a year ago. He won't leave Natsumi alone and leave fairy tail again because when he did that once, nothing changed and it got all worse. He won't do something like that again and regrets it once again.
He let go of a sigh and moved to the room besides Natsumi's one, it was his own. He opened the door and put his bag inside of it and closed it again. He decided to take a walk under the rain as much as he wants to get rid of some of his thoughts even though he knows that he will not be able to do though.
