Over Flowing Feelings

As Natsu was being carried away by Gajeel and Gray, he took one last look at his mate. Her face was blank and emotionless. He couldn't understand how someone could just forget everything. He couldn't understand how Lucy could just forget what happened. He couldn't understand how she could just forget the connection they had. No, he didn't want to believe it. He refused to believe that she had forgotten their connection, their feelings for one another. He especially couldn't except the face she made when she saw him. It was like someone staring at a stranger, no emotion, no...love. While he was dazed in his thoughts and disbelief he somehow ended up sitting in his bed.

He looked up to see Gajeel standing by his front door, leaning against the door arms crossed and staring at him. Gray was standing near the bed leaning slightly to one side as his hands rested in his pockets. Both men just stared at him obviously unsure of what to say to him. This was just annoying Natsu and making him unbelievably pissed for some reason. Finally made a move to get up.

"I'm going to talk to Lucy." He made a move towards the door and a firm hand on his shoulder made him stop dead in his tracks.

Gray had placed a firm grip on Natsu's shoulder and was now staring at the fiery fool seriously. "That's not a good idea right now. Lucy just fell out of the fricking sky. She was dead and now she's not. She doesn't even remember anything. You talking to her now spouting out crap she doesn't even know about won't help anything."

"Tssskk." Natsu hissed angrily and removed himself forcefully from out of Gray's grip. The hell was he to say what he could and could not do. Natsu had been depressed for three years. For three years he wanted nothing more than to hold and kiss Lucy. No he would have just been happy being near here. No she is here and he is being told to stay away. Uh no.

Natsu moved to the door but was blocked by Gajeel and was now restrained by Gray from behind.

"You guys don't want to do this." Natsu said almost murderously.

"Listen salamander I get you missed her, and now she's here. But the ice mage is right, she doesn't remember anything so if you just g out there and ramble about all kinds of different stuff she wont know what your talking about. You might also just end up making her feel weird and uncomfortable."

Ok so first he can't see her, then he is being restrained and now he was being told that they knew how he felt the hell with this. Natsu's anger was obvious on his face. His body suddenly lit up in flames causing Gray to put a sheet of ice around his on body for protection. The steam of the clashing elements made it hard to keep a firm grip on the fire eating idiot. So Gajeel had to try and steel himself to help hold back Natsu who had start thrashing about trying to get free, while yelling.

"HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL. LUCY DIED. MY BEST FRIEND AND MATE DIED RIGHT THERE IN MY ARMS. SHE DIED TO SAVE ME DO YOU NOW THE GUILT AND PAIN I'VE FELT THE LAST THREE YEARS I HIGHLY FUCKING DOUBT IT CONSIDERING YOU TWO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO BE WITH THE ONE YOU LOVE. I COULDN'T BECAUSE MINE WASN'T EVEN IN A GRAVE TO VISIT. SHE JUST VANISHED!"

Gajeel and Gray flinched a little when he said they were able to be with the one they loved. They knew he was right and they felt a little guilt. But sill they couldn't let him go.

"NATSU!" Gray yelled, "DO YOU SERIOUSLY THINK WE WEREN'T HURT BY LUCY'S DEATH. SHE WAS OUR FRIEND WERE THERE WHEN SHE FIRST CAME TO THE GUILD. WE WERE THERE ON MISSIONS WITH HER. WE WERE THERE BY YOUR SIDE FIGHTING TO SAVE LUCY MUTIPLE TIMES. DID YOU KNOW JUVIA CRIED ENDLESSLY FOR TWO WEEKS NOT COMMING OUT OF THE BATHROOM CAUSE SHE LOST HER FRIEND. SURE," he continued at a calmer tone, "She use to call Lucy a love rival or whatever but that was just Juvia's way of telling Lucy she was her friend, and Levy." Gray trailed off a little looking at Gajeel. Gajeel sighed and looked to his side.

"Yeah the shrimp was a mess, she wouldn't eat or sleep for a while. All she did was cry which only made Lilly emotional, and it made it harder for me to keep an eye on her."

Natsu stopped struggling as much as he listened to Gray once again. "Look Natsu we all were affected by Lucy's death in some way, yeah you most of all but we as a guild still felt a loss of a very important person. I know things suck now, but right now we got to think of Lucy first."

Natsu listened to what his guild mates were saying. At that moment it felt as if all his pent up emotions, anger, sadness, confusion, hope, love, guilt all of it just came crashing down on him making him crumble under his own weight falling to his knees.

"I'm sorry guys," Natsu forced through muffled sobs, "I know I'm being stupid and selfish it's just I've missed her so much and now...now she's here." Natsu crouched lower to the floor bawling himself up with closed fist outstretched before him. He just et all his emotions flow out of him, and Gray and Gajeel just stood there waiting for their friend to compose himself.

After a few minutes Natsu stood up and had on his usual goofy grin on. "Ok guys I'm ready." at that moment Lily came in and relayed Erza's message. Natsu bolted out the door just to see beautiful blonde hair lightly flowing in a warm breeze. The two men and exceed just stood there smiling at their lizard brained friend and knew in their heart Natsu was going to bring Lucy back to them all.
