A/N: Hey there! I'm still new here and this would be my first fanfic. Well, this story just popped into my mind just a week ago. Oh yeah, I love tragic love stories. So, please bear with me with this story of mine. :]
Disclaimers: I DON'T OWN ANYTHING RELATED TO FAIRY TAIL. And PLEASE DON'T use my own characters freely as you can without my permission.
It was a windy spring afternoon. Cherry blossom petals are dancing and gliding with the wind. A salmon hair guy was lying on the lap of a blonde hair girl. He caressed her cheeks with romantic pleasant eyes and she was playing with boy's hair. He smelled her blonde hair.
"You smell like vanilla on a spring day." He said.
"You always tell me that, Natsu." Her cheeks were flushed with red.
"That's one of the things that I like about you, Lucy." Then he kissed her hand.
Lucy laughed softly and he smiled. Their eyes meet, brown to olive. This heavenly moment was interjected by Lucy's cough. Natsu sat up and laid an arm around her shoulder and held his hand onto hers.
"Are you all right?" he was worried about her.
"Y-yeah…" she coughed. "It's just that I'm a bit cold."
"Why didn't you tell me that you're cold?" then he took off his brown jacket and laid it over Lucy's body.
"Better?"
"Yeah, thanks." She saw him flashing a wide smile.
Natsu kissed Lucy on the forehead. "Tell me whatever problem you have, I'll hear you out." Then he pulled Lucy's head onto his shoulder.
Lucy's cheeks are reddening and her eyes are like the size of saucers. There he goes again, his unexpected kisses. She thought.
"Yeah, I bet you will."
Natsu held on to her tightly. "Say, let's make a promise."
"Hmm?"
"A promise that will remain in our hearts forever."
"What is it then?"
"Promise me, under this cherry blossom tree, that every 17th day of the month, we'll meet up here and write letters to each other. But they can only be read at our anniversary."
Lucy smiled. "mm…Okay."
"Promise?"
"Promise." Natsu flashed a wide grin and placed his hand on the trunk of the cherry blossom tree. "Let this cherry blossom tree be our witness."
She turned her head to the tree and then to Natsu. Her chocolate brown eyes met the olive orbs with a fiery passionate gaze.
"I love you Lucy."
"I love you too, Natsu." Natsu lunged in to give Lucy a tender kiss and squeezed her.
Lucy glanced at her watch. "It's time for me to go." Natsu stood up and brushed off some grass on his pants and gave Lucy a hand for her to stand. She brushed off some grass and dirt on her dress and fixed her hair and wore the brown jacket that Natsu gave to her.
"I'll take you home." Then they held hands while walking down on a hill to the parked motor. He tossed Lucy her helmet and placed on his. He rode and started the engine. Lucy hoped in and tugged at Natsu's waist leaning her head and body on to his back. The motor's engine roared and took off.
When they arrived at a huge gate, the gate of Lucy's house or should we say mansion, the Heartfilia mansion. Lucy got out and gave her helmet to Natsu. She fixed her blonde crown and Natsu couldn't help but stare at her while she was still tidying up her silk-like blonde hair.
"You are already beautiful, Lucy." He hissed.
She was still tying her hair with a hair tie. "You really are weird, aren't you?" she giggled.
"Maybe."
She giggled again and noticed that she was still wearing his jacket. She started taking it off but was stopped by him.
"You can have my jacket."
"But…"
"Don't worry. I still got lots of it back at home."
Lucy sighed. "I'll treasure this."
"Sure you will." She kissed him on the cheek then went to a monitor.
"This is Lucy Heartfilia. Please open the gate." Then the huge gates opened. She turned her back to Natsu. "Bye."
"Bye. See you at school." Then he drifted off as soon as Lucy went inside the compound.
Upon arriving at the lobby of the mansion, she was greeted by her maid, Maria.
"Good day, Miss Lucy. The doctor is waiting for you at the library."
Lucy sighed and inhaled. Okay Luce. It's gonna be fine. She thought. "Okay then. Thanks Maria." Then she set off to the library.
At the library, the doctor was sitting on a couch; eating tea sized biscuits then looked up to see his patient.
"Oh, Ms. Heartfilia. Please sit down."
Lucy sat down next to him. She took a huge gulp and took the guts. "Is the disease really inside me? Is it true?"
The doctor sipped some tea and looked at her, straight to the eye.
"Sorry to say this but yes. You have a heart disease and you have about 6 months to live."
"Six months to live? You mean…I'm gonna die?"
The doctor took in some air. "Yes. I'm sorry. Not even an operation could do it, even if you're going to heave a bag of money in front of me, it will not work. It's your life we're talking about here."
"What? B-but…"
"I'm sorry. You can't escape this disease."
Tears are flowing from her eyes then she abscond the library and went to her room. She slammed her door shut. She was trembling, head to toe. She started crying with great sadness. "Why? Why? Is this really my destiny? I can't take it anymore! I don't know if I can accept this. I can't let him know this. I just can't. I don't want to see him suffering because of me." Then she slumped off to her bed and drifted off to sleep.
