Chapter29

The blonde walked in the street and was trying as much as he can not to pump into anything because he was super angry and couldn't hold his anger at all. He didn't know why they were just so nosy about knowing others' secrets and on top of that it was just forcing so. Wait a minute, he just heard something he didn't give so much attention but as he remembers that the white haired demon was wondering why the girl wasn't able to defend herself.

That's right; Natsumi couldn't use any power and strength to protect herself. He stopped in the middle of the street as he looked at the ground thinking of why would Natsumi's power not coming back up until now?

He shook his head off the thoughts and started walking. Worrying about these things will only bring despair for him and all he wanted in the right moment is to see the pink haired girl. He kept walking in Magnolia's streets heading to the dragon slayer's house.

And finally, he reached the house and started to near the door and was about to knock the wooden door but he stopped in his track as he heard some noises from the inside. Lucas started to near his ear to the door to see whose voice was it and then stopped when he realized that this voice was a sound of crying and it looked really familiar. The hand that was about to knock slid down to his side as he became in shock of what happened.

"Natsumi," he stated softly as he heard loud cries. He then looked determined and then knocked the door to see what happened to his girlfriend.

Inside of the house, the girl jumped of her place as she looked at the door's direction. She sniffed the air to realize that it was the blonde guy her boyfriend Lucas. She quickly wiped away her tears that were on her cheeks and stood on her spot and started walking towards the door. She stopped in front of the door looking at the space trying to balance herself and hide her sadness as well.

"Natsumi, Natsumi are you alright?!" the guy sounded worried and that shocked her a little.

She took a deep breath through her nose and amended her hair then she stretched her hand out to grab the door's handle to open the door slowly. She looked at the blonde guy as he looked at her in back. She then forced a smile upon her lips trying to draw the attention away from her eyes.

"Why are you here? We just left each other by the train station." She stated softly trying to escape meeting his eyes in order for him not to realize that she was crying. Lucas looked at her face and found out what she was doing and started to get a little confused about this thing.

"Something… doesn't feel right." The girl moved her head to look at the taller man and she didn't smile as she kept looking at his face trying to ask about what doesn't feel right but, her tears formed in her eyes and fell down without hesitating shocking her.

"Natsumi,"

"Why? Why are they falling now? Why?" she started wiping her eyes as she kept her head lowered not facing him and that made his heart pains him because he had bet that she was hiding something and why she was hiding it on him, she was the first one to tell her about his father.

"Natsumi," he stretched her arms out as he wrapped them around of her back bringing her closer to him as she started to weep harder while she was in his embrace. "It's alright to cry in front of me." He stated softly as he started to rub her hair softly.

"I did tell you about what had bothered me, come on… talk to me and don't be shy." These words were so simple but had made her happy to hear them. She is finally able to be able to count on someone and make him her back. She kept on weeping so much and finally, she calmed down.

The blonde broke the hug he was giving to the pink haired dragon slayer and looked into her eyes. He knew that she was sad about something but didn't know what this thing about. He didn't know what bothered and killed her that much but, as her boyfriend, he has to stay with her until she gets better. After resting his hands on her shoulders, he slid them down to his sides. Then, he moved his left hand to grab on her right one and started pulling Natsumi while he was walking to where her hammock was.

The both of them sat down on the hammock as Lucas kept staring at the beautiful face of hers. Then he raised her hand to his mouth and placed a small kiss on her palm as he kept staring straight at the eyes of hers.

She looked at him in the eyes and looked at what he was doing feeling a little bit taken by the moment because of what he was doing and felt like she wanted to cry more and more. She bit her lower lip and looked down on the clothes they were sitting on. She started to think of what she was thinking earlier and one tear escaped her eyes.

The man squeezed her hand together with his own to encourage her to talk.

"I… I miss him," all of his attention moved to her as he was guessing what she was talking about. And about a boyfriend, it's forbidden to hear another boy's name so he waited for her to finish her sentence. "I miss Igneel so much!" she cried and then the blonde grabbed the back of her head to rest it on his chest while rubbing on it smoothly to ease on her.

"You… you had concealed inside of you in order not to hurt me?" he asked softly as he kept rubbing her head. Well, Natsumi didn't answer but, she brought her right arm to rest it on his chest as she sniffed. "You're strong Natsumi, you did well." he didn't feel like he did much with saying this but, that totally eased on her as she decided to talk.

"I…" she started. "I've been searching for him so many years, so many years." She continued softly as she kept looking at the space while resting her head on his chest. "He left without even telling me, I thought I'd die that die but…" she moved her head away to look at his eyes with her teary one.

"Fairy tail helped me to survive." She sniffed and moved her hand to wipe away her tears with the back of her hands. "And they are still doing… until now."

Lucas smiled and stretched his hand out to cup her left cheek for her to look at his face wearing that soft peaceful smile.

"And they will do always because they care about you." He stated softly as he rubbing her cheek with his thumb looking deeply into her eyes. "And I do as well," he started to lean his head to capture the lips of hers without any warning.

"Lu-"

The kiss didn't last except for only some 2 seconds but Natsumi felt relieved to have him next to her in such a moment. She thanks god that she had opened the door back then because if she wouldn't have opened it she would have stayed all lonely crying and wouldn't have been relieved at all.

The man stretched his other hand to cup her other cheek and moved his head to rest his forehead on hers one. He looked into her eyes with determined eyes which made her a little surprised.

"The second time you decided to cry in you've make sure to cry in my arms!" he kept staring at her eyes and that's what she did in back, they didn't move at all. Then, when the man felt annoyed that he didn't get a proper answer from her he started pulled her cheeks out with both of his index and thumb fingers in both hands.

"Ow, ow, ow!" Natsumi protested.

"What kind of answer is that?!" he faked a frown while looking at her in the eyes then stopped pulling her cheeks to let her answer.

"What do you want to hear?"She looked at his eyes and his fake frown which made him anger and made him pull her cheeks again. "Ow!"

"Say 'Okay master I'll do whatever you want!'" he tried to hold his laughter. And because the girl was innocent, she went along with it.

"Okay… master." She started squeezing her eyes shut. "I'll do whatever… you want." He smiled and didn't move his hands away.

"Great thing you know." He squeezed her cheeks and that was hurting again.

"Lucas, stop it!"

"Why? You look so cute." He laughed.
