Levy's POV

It…it was all my fault. When I saw Lucy cry, why didn't I help her? I…I was regretting every second. Even though I knew I didn't have the right to cry, I still did. Beginning with silent tears, then soon enough, advancing into fountains of sadness.

"Oi shrimp, stop crying." I could hear Gajeel in the background. I couldn't stop.

"It wasn't your fault." He continued as he draped an arm around my shoulders. It surprised me, but it quickly faded when I returned to sobbing. Gajeel sighed, then he did something I could've never imagined in a thousand years. He stood up. But with ME in his arms, still a sobbing wet mess.

"GAJEEL! PUT ME DOWN!" I cried, embarrassed.

"Uh…I thought this would make you feel better…" He replied, blushing slightly with the most idiotic answer ever. I can't believe I actually fell for such a dummy.

I looked at his face and smiled. Sometimes, I even wished he could like me back! Relaxing a little, I rested my head on his chest and fell asleep.

Natsu's POV

We've done it.

"Master. Are you happy now?" I questioned. I expected a yes. Or at least a maybe, but he stayed silent.

"OI! SPEAK UP! YOU OLD GEEZER! WHY DID YOU MAKE US KICK LUCY OUT?!" I've had enough. It wasn't right! Lucy doesn't deserve to be treated that way. She's a nakama, a family. All I remember was Lucy's last words. "I HATE YOU! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN! EVER!"

I have once sworn that I will never let her tears fall again. But I have broken the promise and hurt her terribly. I know that. I lit my fists on fire and waved it towards that old geezer. Erza stops me, but I struggle out of her grasp. Then he spoke.

Lucy's POV

They said it? My group, I loved them so so much. They were more than just family! But Natsu…out of all people suggested the idea of replacement. I think I understood why. It's because of Lisanna right? It's all because of her return! They have probably discovered that Celestial Magic was nothing compared to Lisanna's take over and to think that she wears such seducing clothing! I was sure it was pure jealousy that hit me, squishing the tears that I dreaded so much to come pouring out, like that. There was only one thing that I could do. I have to prove that I was worthy to be back in their team.

Sometimes, hate or jealousy forces the weakness of one's heart into the corner.

Yo guys! Sorry for the short chapter! I just returned from Summer Holiday and realized that I stopped updating... I'LL GET BACK ON TRACK, RIGHT AWAY!
