Lucy P.O.V
"Lucy...wake up" I heard someone calling me name. I groaned as I felt the sunlight hit my face. I turned away from the light and the voice and tried to sleep again. "Come on Lucy please..." the voice cussed. I slowly opened my eyes but closed them again when light flooded my vision. I tried again and sat up. Once my vision cleared I saw warm brown eyes inches away from me. I didn't dare move. I just stared, I already knew who it was. I could feel him searching my eyes looking for emotion. He'd hid his quite well but I knew that it was a facade.
"Oh Jellal..." I said pulling away. What was I supposed to say? I looked away so he couldn't see the red that dusted my cheeks.
"G-gomen I will leave you to get changed." he said standing up. He rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly before exiting the tent, leaving me speechless. I sighed, how did I get myself into this one? I quickly got up and looked for my bag. It was right besides me. I changed from my now looking beige browse and my blue short skirt to a light pink tank top with pale yellow shorts. I clipped on my belt and attached both my whip and my keys. Oh no Aquarius was going to kill me for dropping her key! I sweatdropped maybe I just wouldn't call her for a while. I began brushing my matted hair and that's when I caught sight of my hand. It looked so plain. Did I really make the right decision? To leave the guild? My family? Well they weren't really acting like a family. I finished getting ready and exited the tent in my second pair of black boots.
Jellal was no where to be seen. I looked around but found him no where, I wanted some answers. I started wandering around the forest. Where could he be? Did I just imagine it all? The questions kept coming until I heard it.
"Lucy!" That voice...NO! It was that voice that used to make my heart flutter and my stomach flip. That voice I fell for and that voice that permanently damaged my heart. Natsu... I ran the opposite direction to the voice. I couldn't face him, no I wouldn't face him. I kept running through the forest until I hit something which made me fall back. I prayed it wasn't Natsu.
"Lucy?" It wasn't Natsu or anyone from Fairy tail. It was Jellal. I sighed in relief. He knelt down to me and looked me in the eye.
"Err Hi?" I said which made him laugh. I blushed out of embarrassment and then got angry. "What's so funny?!" I half yelled. He kept laughing and kept pouting while I crossed my arms looking away. He stopped abruptly and stared at me. I looked at him and blushed at how close we were. "W-what?"
"Your face is all red. Are you getting a fever?" he asked concerned. He put a hand to my head and I froze. His hand was so warm. Natsu was hot but this...this was completely different. It was then that I snapped back to reality and realised Natsu was close. I jumped up and began running in a random direction that I hoped Natsu wasn't in. "Lucy wait!" Jellal shouted he began running after me. He soon caught up to me. "Why are you running? I think one of your friends is looking for you" he said.
"That's what I'm running away from!" I said. He looked at me weirdly before silently asking the question Why? "I will explain later until then will you help me hide?" I asked hopefully. I knew that Natsu would find me if I didn't find a place to hide. I could hear faint footsteps behind us as we ran he was closing in.
"Follow me" Jellal said grabbing my hand. I usually would of freaked out but it just felt...right. He began running in front and pulling me through the forest. we reached a large lake and stopped. Natsu was getting closer to us I could hear him, I mean he wasn't the quietest person in the world. I was confused, he stopped and turned to me. "Do you trust me?"he asked me. I was hesitant but nodded. "Okay take a deep breathe and keep quiet" he said seriously.
"What-" before I could finish he pushed me into the lake! Did he seriously just do that?! What does pushing me in freezing cold water help me! I was about to swim up but I heard voices. He was talking to Natsu! So he pushed me in here to get my scent off me and make sure Natsu didn't see me. Ohhh I feel a bit stupid now. I waited and tried to listen to the conversation the two mages were having but all I could hear was murmurs and slightly slurred words. Then there was silence. A minute later I was pulled out of the water by strong arms. I breathed in deeply before I started shivering drastically. The cold was making me shake.
"Are you okay?" Jellal asked from above me. I only slightly nodded but I'm not sure he could tell because I was shaking so much.
"Y-yeah I'm j-just c-old" I said. He quickly discarded his cloak and draped it over my body. "T-thanks"
"I'm sorry that was a foolish idea on my part" he apologised bowing his head. A small smile graced my lips as I tried to get up only to almost fall again. "Whoa there take it slow" he said holding on to me. I balanced myself and walked forward with Jellal supporting me. "So you wanna tell me what's going on?" he asked me. I nodded.
"Later..." I said he nodded in understanding. We made our way back to the makeshift camp and Jellal got a fire going. I stayed right in front of it while Jellal sat opposite it. We sat in a comfortable silence while he waited for my explanation. I sighed I was going to have to tell him everything.
"So...I will ask you now are you ready for what I'm going to tell you?" I asked him. He looked up from the crackling flames which had caught his attention and nodded slightly."Okay if you're sure..." I first explained and admitted that I had had feelings for Natsu he avoided my gaze at that moment. Then I mentioned Erza. He flinched at the sound of her name. He didn't look surprised when I said Natsu and Erza were an item. I told him about the guild and how I found out about them and how I decided to leave. He looked a little shocked and didn't believe me but when he caught sight of my hand he realised that I was telling the truth. When I finished I was close to tears but I wouldn't let them fall. I didn't want to look weak in front of him.
He quietly stood up and approached me and before I could move he was hugging me. "Cry" he said into my ear. I looked up at him confused "I know you need to from the sounds of things it's something which you need to do to move on. I promise I won't tell anyone" That was enough for me. I buried my head into his chest and cried all the tears I'd been keeping at bay out. I returned his hug and he rubbed reassuring circles on my back. We stayed like that for a while and everything felt like it was going to be okay with him here.
