Hello Angels. I am back with another chapter. This came out quicker than I expected. Before I get started I have a bit of a mini rant that I would like to do. If you don't really care that's cool you can just skip it.

I read some of the comments from the previous three chapters and I would like to clarify somethings. There were some readers who told me that they didn't like how I portrayed Lucy or how the story was progressing because of how timid and submissive Lucy was. I get it, some of you didn't like Lucy for sticking with someone who treated her so badly, but I would like to point out that this is how verbally abusive relationships are. I have been in a relationship like this myself and I can say that I understand both sides.

From an outside point of view, the person is stupid and ridiculous for staying with someone who treats them wrong. However, when you're in the relationship you don't think anything is wrong. It doesn't just happen over night, the abuser starts out slow and then makes you believe that everything they say is true. Outside views don't help because you just feel that everyone is trying to ruin your (falsely believed) happiness.

I'm not bashing anyone who hasn't ever been in a relationship like this and I'm not trying to start any arguments. (I will say that you are fortunate) I just found myself irked by some of the replies because, coming from personal experience, I know that the situation is bad but I don't think it's okay to call the victim (and yes they are victims) stupid or disgusting for staying with their abuser.

All/any human being(s) want to be loved, so when someone thinks that they have found it (especially if they feel deprived of it) then they become complacent in what they can get. It honestly becomes a point where they believe that they cannot be loved by anyone else.

I feel like I'm doing a horrible job of expressing myself but I just really want others to understand. I really hope some of you do. I don't want anyone to feel like I attacked them, because that wasn't my intention.

Rant End

Well I hope I didn't turn to many people away. Here is the the chapter.

I do not own anything Fairy Tail related. Hiro Mashima does.

*beep beep beep*

Lucy turned over and hit her alarm clock, then stared at her ceiling. She looked over at the clock and saw that it was 5:30am. 'Time to get started'. She stood up and went to the closet to get her yoga mat.

Setting it out in front of her, the blonde started with her usual breathing techniques. Feet together, arms raised above her head, she bent forward till her fingertips hovered over the ground. Taking a deeper breath, she stood back up and spread her legs out. 'Relax. Breathe.'

Bending forward, she rested her forearms down on the floor. 'Breathe.' She brought her upper body back up, only to bend backwards. She rested her forearms down and lowered her head, into a backbend. She enjoyed this positon, the slight pull that it gave her core muscles was worth waking up early.

Flexing her core muscles, she placed all her weight onto her forearms and slowly began lifting her legs above her head. Once in full headstand positon, she began doing bicycle kicks with her legs in the air. While doing her kicks she couldn't place a nagging feeling she had at the back of her head. Almost like her mind was trying to remember something. 'I feel like I'm forgetting something really important.' Taking a deep breath, she began folding her legs in front of her body. 'Breathe.' The more she tried, the less she could recall of it.

The blonde lowered her legs more and more over her head until her toes were able to touch the ground in front of her. She stayed in that position and allowed her back to stretch a bit. This was her favorite positon most of all. It was great help with her constant back pains (big breast are not that great) and it also showed how much work she put into her yoga. Slowly, the blonde brought her legs back over her head so that her feet could touch the floor. With her feet settled, she pushed her upper body up until she was finally back in standing positon.

Lucy smiled to herself, 'I can do that with no problem now'. Looking over at her clock, she realized that it was now 6:15. 'Wow that was quicker than I expected. I've got time to call Sti- OH SHIT!' It was then that the events of yesterday, last night, finally hit her.

Finally putting up her yoga mat, Lucy walked to her nightstand and checked her phone. There weren't any missed calls or text messages. 'Maybe…' Pressing the call button she waited while the phone rang, but nothing happened. 'No wonder he hadn't tried to get in contact with me yet, he must still be mad.'

Shutting the screen off, she realized that the brooding sense of dread that usually followed wasn't there. Any other time Sting was mad at her she couldn't help but just want to cry. However, at this moment, she just felt light. Her body felt lighter than air. The thought of apologizing or making things right wasn't the first thing on her mind. Instead, to her surprise, she was just consumed by a serene peacefulness.

Last night, she'd felt embarrassed and slighted. What's more, is that she didn't apologize for it. Never once had she left from a night out with Sting's friends and not ended up apologizing for something that he believed she did wrong. Now, that she had broken that cycle….well…. it felt pretty damn good.

Standing up, Lucy flopped her phone on the bed and grabbed her clothes for the day.

'If he doesn't want to talk right now then it's fine. I'm done apologizing.'

Hopefully I don't lose too many readers with my rant. Thank you for those of you who enjoyed the story and thank you for reading. Please review and tell me what you thought of this chapter.
