Lucy's POV:

I opened my eyes, feeling a small pressure on my lips. I saw Natsu in front of me, tears started falling out of the corner of his closed eyes. I started feeling an overwhelming sensation within my body and heart, emotions started flooding me. Every muscle in my body ached by I pushed past it and wrapped my arms around him as our kiss continued. As he released we looked each other in the eyes, he looked so happy.

"Lucy, you're finally awake." He whispered under his breath.

I put a hand on his face "Ya, finally." I said smiling back at him. Everyone around us cheered as we hugged. His embrace was so warm and loving I hadn't felt one like that since my mother was around.

The magical council arrived a few hours later and decided to interrogate us all about the earlier incident. We got by with only warnings and they took everyone from Crescent Wolves into custody. Wendy was able to heal my internal wounds making most of my aching pain subside thankfully. We were stuck mostly walking back to the nearby village which was miles away. Natsu carried me on his back almost the entire way there, not wanting me to strain myself to after what had happened.

We stayed towards the back of the group trying to keep our conversations to ourselves "Tell me what happened to you Lucy, I mean I understand if you don't want to talk about it but I'm curious what he did to you." Natsu asked me I knew he was concerned but thinking back at it was terrifying.

"It was terrifying Natsu, thinking back to the pain and suffering I went through, I did die but some how my parents set me free and with the power of my keys I was able to return. I felt such an immense power when you kissed me while I was dead that I was able to releases the rest of my power so I could return." I said burying my head in his white scarf. "I couldn't remember anything from here when I was in heaven, I didn't know what fairy tail was or that I was a wizard or that earthland even existed. I couldn't remember you and that was the most horrible thing ever."

"Don't worry Luce, it's all over now. I'm here to stay and protect you now, I love you." He said rubbing his head against mine as he tightened his grip on my legs as we continued to walk.

-Two Month Later-

I woke up screaming, my dream had turned into a nightmare about the pain I had suffered two months ago.

"Lucy! Lucy! Lucy!" Natsu said running over to me to comfort me, he grabbed onto me and pulled me to his chest as I cried. "was it the same dreams again?"

"mhmm…."

"I'm sorry, I wish there was something I could do, it will pass don't worry." He said stroking my hair. This had been a reoccurring thing every so often during the course of the two months since we had returned back to magnolia after the battle with Zenith. Natsu had decided to stay in my apartment at night so he could protect me and comfort me, at least until I felt it was fine that he left. The truth was I didn't want him to leave, ever. I loved him and I felt so safe when he was around. We spent most of the day together and then at night he would sneak into my room so he could watch over me, then sneak back out by dawn so no one would see him or suspect anything. Everyone knew we were a thing but didn't really know anything else going on.

"Natsu." I said looking up at his face with my tear filled eyes.

"Yea?"

"Do you love me?" I asked him.

"Of course what kind of silly question is that." He said sitting back on my head-board as we cuddled together in my bed.

"I don't know I was just thinking about it that's all." I said looking at my still bandaged wrist.

"If your worried about my promise I made you, I Promise I will protect you no matter what you don't have to worry." He said looking at me confused.

"No it's not that at all," I said sighing under my breath I don't think he really understand how much I did love him. Ever since I had joined the guild I started slowly falling in love with him and everyone knew it.

"Tell me Luce what's bothering you?" He said letting go of me so that he could face me straight on.

"Well… I…." I stumbled out I was still so scared to tell him how I really felt or ask him how he felt about me. I looked down at my wrist and hand again where my fairy tail mark was, it was the guild that brought us all together. I felt his warm hand grab onto mine as I looked up at his face. He had a reassuring smile that crossed over it and such sincere looking eyes.

He leaned in to my face as pulled me closer to him and pressed his lips onto mine as we sat on the bed in front of my window. I could feel his hands starting to lace through my hair as our kiss got more passionate. The warmth started emanating off his body making me almost break into a sweat, probably from his power getting out of control.

He slowly started pulling away as he rested his hand on my left cheek. "Luce, I love you more than I love anything, I wont EVER leave you, I will stay by your side for all of our lives and that's a dragon slayers promise." I jumped into his arms as I laid my head onto his chest as we embraced for another hug this time I knew that he would always keep his promise.

I started hearing taping on my window from someone throwing rocks on it. Both Natsu and I jumped a little and looked out the window to see Loke, Gray, Gajeel, Elfman, Happy, Pantherlily, Max, Reedus, and every other guy in fairy tail besides the master, gilddarts and Laxus all standing outside looking up at us. They started laughing as Natsu opened the window to talk to them. "What are you guys doing here?" He yelled at them as he leaned out the window.

"Dude! More or less what are you be doing here?" Loke said as a few guys started laughing.

"I'm protecting my Lucy so MEH!" He said sticking his tongue out at them. Sometimes Natsu could be the most immature kind of guy.

"Dude you aren't supposed to be with the bride the night before the wedding you flame brain!" Gray said, when he said bride a chill went down my spine.

"And who made that stupid rule?!" Natsu yelled back at them

"it's a tradition Natsu," Loke said

"So be a man and get down here!" Elfman threatened as he flexed his muscles at Natsu. Everyone just did a giggle as he came back inside to face me.

"You should go." I said smiling at him and shrugging.

"I wont go if you don't want me to Lucy." He said grabbing my hands.

"No you should don't want to break tradition now, do ya?" I said giving a giggle.

"But that means you'll be all alone!" He said.

"Don't make me come up there!" Gajeel yelled up at us.

"Ill be fine." I reassured him "Now go before they break something trying to pull you out there!"

"I'll have Warren ask someone to come and keep you company while I'm gone okay?" He said about ready to jump out the window.

"Thanks Natsu." I said crawling over to give him a kiss as all the guys whistled and cheered as I kissed him goodbye. He jumped out the window still smiling as he joined the group of guys that started to high-five him.

"Hey Loke!" I yelled at him from out the window.

"Yea Luce?" He yelled back.

"You still walkin me down the aisle tomorrow?" I asked him to reassure myself.

"Of course Luce, your wish is my command." He said bowing as he ran off with the rest of the guys. I waited to close my window until I couldn't hear their loud laughter's and conversations anymore. I sat back down on my bed and leaned against the wall looking at me hand again.

There, on my left hand, on the fourth finger was a beautiful golden ring with just one simple diamond on it. He had proposed to me a day after we got back into town, Levy had helped him pick out a ring for me and helped him find the perfect place for the proposal. It was in the back of the guild facing the ocean and horizon. The sun was setting as he asked me to go outside with him, we sat on the edge of the cliff line feeling the waves hit our feet as the sky changed colors, that's when he asked me.

I had asked Loke to walk me down the isle since my father was unable to and he was the closest thing to family I had, Makarov was a little upset I didn't ask him but he understood my reasoning to choose Loke. Erza, Levy, Wendy, Mirajane, Cana and Lisanna were my bridesmaids and Gray, Elfman, Gajeel, Reedus, Warren and Max were Natsu's best men. Which left happy and Carla to be the ring barriers, while panther lily was head of security (Natsu's Idea). He still was skeptical after the Zenith battle and didn't want things to get to out of control.

"Man I thought they would never drag him off!" Mirajane said as she burst through my front door. I jumped a bit looking over to see most of the girls from Fairy Tail piling into my room, mostly all my bridesmaids and friends.

"Don't worry guys I brought the booze!" Cana said as she slumped on my floor next to my bed with a barrel of booze.

"What are you guys all doing here?!" I said looking around at all girl friends.

"We are here to make your last night of your not married life a blast!" Erza said as she packed in a huge picnic basket probably filled with sweets and candy. I just started to laugh, we all started to talk and play games, everyone laid out sleeping bags on the floor for when they wanted to fall asleep. Then around midnight everyone either passed out from being to drunk (Cana) or from being too exhausted.

"Are you nervous at all Lucy?" Wendy asked me as she yawned from exhaustion.

"Just a bit." I said quietly trying not to wake anyone else up, then Wendy fell asleep.

I looked over at my sleeping friends thinking how wonderfully they all were to support and love me. I looked over towards my closet where my white bridal gown hung next to all the blue bridesmaid dresses. Tomorrow was the big day where I was going to marry my prince charming, the Dragon Slayer, the one man I loved so we could be together for the rest of our lives.
