Lucy's POV

Me and Levy where walking down the emptied streets of Magnolia but neither of us bothered to say a word. I was too shocked after the event with Natsu everything around me seemed to disappear. Levy was the one to break the awkward silence between us, "So Lu-chan I was wondering if you wanted to talk about what happened with Natsu." My gaze drifted towards Levy, and she had a worried expression. " I don't even know Levy-chan... I just can't believe he forgot me. I mean I thought he would never forget me after all we have been through. I finally give in to my emotions and this is what happens, it's just so unfair.."

Tears began to sting my eyes, no I can't cry in front of Levy it would only make her worry, and I don't want to be a burden to her. As if the bluenette could read my mind, she walked over and embraced me in a warm hug. " It's ok Lu-chan I know it hurts, but Natsu will remember I just know it. I'm always here if you need me so you can cry, I wont mind."

"Levy-chan.. Thank you!" I said before bursting into tears. I just couldn't take it, Natsu meant so much to me, apparently I didn't mean enough to him that he could forget about me so easily. It hurt so much.

"I'm so sorry Lu-chan but even if Natsu does forget there are plenty of other perfect people for you. You know like him." Levy-chan encouraged.

I stopped my crying for as soon as I heard what Levy just said and looked down at her.

What do you mean by him Levy-chan?" I wondered, and Levy looked at me as if another head sprouted off of my neck.

"You mean that you don't know about it!? No wonder you like Natsu you are just as dense as him! Lu-chan everyone in the guild has been debating over who will win you over!" Levy exclaimed.

After hearing what Levy said I was utterly shocked, I mean someone in the guild liked me and I didn't know about it! I mean I was always on top of all of the gossip going around the guild, but never anything about me was ever brought up! Only gossip that I thought was going around was that Romeo finally had enough courage to ask Wendy out, and to no ones surprise said she said yes.

"Levy-chan would you be so kind and to tell me who this person is?" I urged, if someone liked me I just had to know! I mean I had every right to maybe I could learn to love this person and get over Natsu. This could be just what I needed after a complete mess like this, but who could it be! I really hope its not Elfman theres no way I can see us together. It would be terrible if one of those old perverts like Macoa or Wakaba, I don't think anyone would want to see that. I know I wouldn't.

"Umm I don't know if I'm supposed to tell you Lu-chan" Levy said hesitantly.

"Levy-chan" I groaned. I knew that it was no use annoying her and I knew it, at least it would get my mind off of Natsu for a little while. I wonder who this mystery man could be.

Me and Levy continued to walk around until we reached the DVD rental place. We picked a few of my favorite movies and some snacks and walked to Levy's apartment. Levy's apartment was your typical apartment, it wasn't to big but big enough for Levy. There was a kitchen, a bathroom, a living room, a guest room, and her room which was really all she needed. Her walls where an icey blue and all of the door frames where white. I really liked Levy's apartment it was warm and home just the place to be when you're upset.

I went in to the guest room which is where I practically lived when my rent for the month was due, and I started to settle in. I heard a knock on the door and Levy said that she would go and get it. Everything was practically all set up from the last time I was here, Levy doesn't have many guests over except for the occasional visit from Gajeel. I wish they would just get together already, it's so obvious that they like each other but Levy doesn't have the courage to confess, while Gajeel is just an idiot who can't understand that she likes him and avoids the subject whenever someone brings it up.

But who could this mystery person be! Not anyone I can think of has shown that they like me, or maybe I was too focused on Natsu I didn't notice anyone else. Why does this all have to be so difficult!

After about 5 minutes I was wondering what was taking Levy so long and I went to go investigate. At Levy's door stood none other than Gray Fullbuster shirtless I might add. "I'm telling you Gray she's ok but I'm sure that she doesn't want to talk about it right now, you have to understand that you being here will only make things more difficult if she figures out you know what" a serious Levy exclaimed. "But Levy you don't understand imagine you in this situation with Gajeel you wouldn't just sit around like this." Gray persisted.

"What are you guys talking about?" I questioned. This conversation wasn't making any sense why was Gray talking about Gajeel was he ok?

Gray and Levy flinched as they looked over to look at me. "Oh it's nothing Lu-chan Gray was just leaving right?" Levy urged

"Actually Levy I wanted to talk to Lucy about something important before I leave" Gray insisted

Levy shot Gray a death stare as he slipped past her to get closer to me. I wasn't sure what was going on but one thing was for sure and that was, Levy was completely against what ever Gray had to say to me.

"Lucy I was wondering if you wanted to take walk around Magnolia I want to show you something." Gray said. "Ok sure a little walk can't hurt just let me go get my coat" I replied and went back into the guest room. I shut the door when I heard Levy say " You're making a huge mistake Gray now isn't the time to do this." "I have to I might never get a chance like this again if I don't do this now then I might never." Gray sighed. This whole conversation between Gray and Levy was just confusing me more and more.

I stepped out of the room with my jacket on when the two stopped talking. I walked over to the door and told Levy that I won't try and take too long. Levy had a fake smile plastered on her face and told me that she will start preparing all of the snacks for tonight.

It was a beautiful night in Magnolia, it was warm but with a little bit of a chill in the wind, summer was just around the corner and I couldn't wait. I looked at Gray to find him staring at me. This scared me a little at first but it didn't really bother me. "So what did you want to show me?" I asked trying to figure out what his argument with Levy was about. Gray sighed and looked at his feet like he suddenly deflated. He recollected his thoughts and then looked at me again.

"Lucy I really don't have anything to show you but I really need to tell you something" Gray said looking directly in to my eyes. My heart started beating faster and I couldn't understand why, but this conversation was making me really uncomfortable.

"What is it Gray?" I asked nervously unsure if I really wanted to hear the answer.

Gray took a deep breath not breaking his gaze said "Lucy I love you"
