Heeeey guys! I am sooo sorry for not updating last week! I was incredibly busy since school just came back and I was celebrating my birthday! So to make it up to you guys I made the chapter as long as I could! But my grammar is seriously off so please forgive me if things get really confusing! So guys thank you for following me along this story and I hope that I was able to meet all of your expectations! I hope this story inspires you all as it inspired me as I wrote it!

On a Side Note:

Everyone should know the drill by now! Mavis Reed does not own Fairy Tail or its characters, all rights belongs to Hiro Mashima. The main plot of the story was inspired by Gayle Foreman's If I Stay and a little bit of Where she Went so I will credit them as well so I will not be sued for copyright!

Without further adieu, I present to you all, your final dose of Come Back to Me!

Chapter Ten: The Guilt Continues

Previously on Come Back to Me:

"Lucy… What did you say?" I know she remembers my super hearing but she decided to shout it out as if I didn't hear it the first time.

"You made me come back!"

Natsu's P.O.V.

I stared at her, dumbfounded. It was true. I begged her to come back, but no one but me could have known about it. I was sure of it. No one was in the room, Lucy was still deep in a coma, and I whispered it only to her.

"That I love you Luce. I promise I'll admit that to you, but first you need to come back to your friends, come back to your family, come back to me."

That was my prayer, my selfish wish.

"How" I stared at her worriedly, she looks like she would collapse at any moment, and her crying right now wasn't helping.

Slowly she wiped her tears away, "When I woke up, I told you I didn't remember anything, and that was the truth. But a few days after, I started having these vivid dreams. Or I thought they were dreams. Each day the dreams become clearer, as if they were memories. I saw everything that happened outside my body like I was watching a movie of my own life play before my eyes."

"You remembered something from when you were in a coma?" this was a complete shock to me. I'm no doctor, but I'm pretty sure when you're in a coma you shouldn't remember what happened outside of your body.

She nodded her head, "I know it sounds hard to believe. I can't believe it myself, but I remember seeing things no one would mention to me. Like you and Lisanna for example."

I gulped, she saw that? I had a pretty good idea of what she was talking about. Before Lucy woke up, Lisanna stayed with me in the room. She confessed that she wished she and I would get together, but I couldn't accept that. Lisanna was more like a sister and nakama to me. I could never see her as anything beyond that.

"Nothing happened between us I swear!"

She smiled bitterly, "I know, but that wasn't why I was mad at you."

I sighed, there was no use trying to hide it, "Was this about the promise I made?"

She nodded, "You have no idea how hard these past few days have been for me. Waking up to be told I could never be a mage anymore, I had a feeling I knew about it but I still chose to wake up. I kept asking myself why. Why would I come back? That's when I started remembering your promise."

Her voice grew louder, "Day after day I waited for you to fill that promise. It's been what's keeping me going. But all I got was pity from everyone, including you!"

She tried to stand up but her legs gave out and I managed to catch her before she hit the ground, "Lucy please calm down." I wished I knew what to do, I'm the one who got her in this mess, and I should be the one to pull her out.

She shook her head, "I've been thinking lately how much easier it would have been if I just died."

Hearing her say those words finally made me realize what she needed. Slowly I wrapped my arms around her and embraced her gently. "Luce, please don't say that. I couldn't bear it if the woman I loved died because of me."

She looked at me with wide eyes, "W-woman you l-l…"

"Loved, yeah, that's you."

She looked away and I gently held her chin to make her look up to me, "I know, I should have told you in the beginning like I was supposed to, but I was afraid. You've gone through so much because of me, and I thought you wouldn't want to be with the man who caused all you're suffering. I was afraid you wouldn't feel the same for me as I feel for you."

She stared into my eyes and I was captivated, "Say it, what you feel for me. Please, say it out loud."

I smiled. This was what she needed, and what I needed too. "Lucy Heartifillia," slowly I leaned down towards her, "I love you."

Not wanting to do it without her permission I stared at her, "I love you too," she replied and closed her eyes.

We closed the gap between us and our lips met. At that moment, I just knew, this woman was meant to be mine. There was no mistake about it, Lucy was my mate all along, and I just a tragedy to make me realize that.

Slowly we broke contact and I heard the most amazing words ever, "I love you too," she smiled, "Natsu Dragneel".

All that time worrying that she loved me or not was for nothing. I should have realized that everything she did for me was because she loved me. But that didn't matter anymore, that was the past and now we both knew how we felt about each other, and I wasn't going to let those feelings change.

I was about to kiss her again until she suddenly looked at me with wide eyes. She leaned forward and held her stomach and started panting.

"Luce?" I panicked and helped her stay up, "Lucy what's wrong?"

Her face was filled with pain and her stomach began to glow. I roared for Porlyusica-san and Wendy. They came in rushing into the room and I lifted her back up into the bed.

"What happened?" Wendy asked me as Porlyusica-san examined Lucy.

"I don't know! She suddenly looked like she was in pain and held her stomach when it starting glowing!"

Porlyusica-san ushered me out of the room, "Alright human get out! We can't work well with you in here!"

"But!" I protested, I nearly lost her once, and I don't plan on losing her soon. Not after we finally admit to each other we were more than friends.

"Out!" she yelled and I was pushed out of the room. Everyone was at the door, trying to figure out what was going on.

I tried my best to explain to everyone what happened, except for the parts were Lucy and I kissed, they didn't need to think about that yet. The minutes felt like ours as they past and I felt like time was going slow on purpose to punish me.

It was making me suffer like how I made Lucy suffer in her coma and how I made her suffer by not keeping my promise.

Finally the doors opened and Porlyusica-san called for me. I felt a bit embarrassed that only I was being called in, but at the same time I was relieved I was going to hear the update on Lucy first.

I walked back into the room and saw Wendy smiling from ear to ear. "Natsu-san!" she said, "How did you do it?"

I was confused, "Do what?"

"That glow you saw was Lucy's Magic Container healing itself" she smacked me in the back, "I don't know what you did but good job. Her container is as strong as ever now. Her magic should return to her in a matter of time and she'll be able to continue being a mage."

I couldn't believe what I was hearing, I looked back up and Lucy and she was smiling brightly as well. Her color returned and she looked nothing like the sick girl I saw before leaving this room. She looked healthier, as if the accident never happened.

"But how?" I asked and Lucy tried to get up but I quickly got to her side so she wouldn't need to. She smiled and hugged my waste.

"My mother once told me that there was one type of magic that could heal anything, and she was right. It's just I never thought it was true, until now."

I had a feeling I knew where she was going. She mentioned this type of magic when we were training for the Grand Magic Games. It was the one type of magic everyone overlooked as something so something, when it was actually incredibly powerful.

Wendy seemed to have caught on as well and placed my hand on top of Lucy, "So this magic," she asked, wants to confirm it, "was it?"

Lucy and I smiled at each other and replied as one, "It was love."
