So has anyone seen Dragon Cry yet? It's pretty nice but Phoenix Priestess was still better in my opinion, maybe it was because it had more plot to it? Idk. Anyway, Dragon Cry would be better to those who only watch the anime and not follow the manga, well at least I think so. Well the best thing in Dragon Cry? All the Nalu moments! =w=


It wasn't everyday you would see two full grown adults dressed in fancy clothing, sitting on a scratched up stool surrounded by tables and floors that are filled with ketchup stains and soda marks here and there, at 1 in the morning eating burgers and fries at McDonalds. You would think being grown ups and all, Natsu would taken her to a bar but nope.

In fact Lucy was pretty sure the night shift staff had already taken multiple pictures of them, so many that Lucy wouldn't be surprise if she suddenly appeared in a 'Date gone wrong.' meme.

Lucy had long gone from confusion, she gave up on trying to make sense on any of Natsu's actions and instead just followed the flow, like how she always does. Besides, a burger in the middle of the night wasn't too bad. Being a famous actor, Natsu had worn a beanie to cover his hair and huge thick sunglasses, even though it was the middle of the night.

"So Natsu, care to explain why I'm here?" she asked once they both finished their burger.

"Hm….I just figured we catch up or something, since we didn't talk much at the party. cause you came late and all."

Lucy raised an eyebrow, "Says the one that left the party early because he didn't want to tell anyone about his fiancé."

"Can you blame me? I can't have them stalking her all over social media and meddle into her private life, especially Levy and Mira., they're sometimes worse than the paparazzi."

"Does that mean you won't tell me either?" Lucy said.

"Do you want me to?"

Lucy stared at Natsu for a moment and sigh, "It's fine, you don't have too if you don't want to even though I'll be dying of curiosity, it's fine." Lucy did want to know who captured his heart though but she didn't want to force him to say any if he didn't want to, it was none of her business anyway. After that night, Lucy was sure that when she goes back everything will be back to normal and she'll never see him again.

"So how's life lately?" She asked, wanting to change the topic before the conversation got awkward.

"The usual, being chase by cameras and my manager to do work. You?" he replied as he shrug his shoulders and proceeded to sip on his soda.

"Well it isn't as busy as your life I suppose, I'm just a regular company employee earning a decent salary to live on."

"Sounds boring."

"You have no idea."

With that a silence soon drew in. It was always like that, whenever they do talk it was small empty conversations. Usually when this does happen, they would always be surrounded by friends so even if their conversation did turn silent their friends were always there to say another topic. Heck, the longest conversation they had was during an hour long game, where they had a group call along with Gray and Gajeel, where the conversation was just about what move to do next and who to aim first.

Lucy knew even if Lucy did still love him and by some miracle he liked her as well, their relationship wouldn't last because to make a relationship work, you would need more than just love, like everything else, communication was key but they didn't have a slightest thing to talk about, no interest to share in, nothing but empty conversations because this was no fairy tale where dreams came true by just singing songs.

They were both just sipping on their sodas, when Natsu decided to break the silence.

"Hey, are you still playing the game?" he asked.

"I haven't played a match since I started working but I do watch videos about it every now and then." Lucy replied. Truthfully, ever since he started college he hadn't touched the game and Lucy knew that because she was online everyday, waiting for someone to get on as well so she would have someone to play with. The game that they usually played got boring after awhile of playing alone. It was lonely because at that time the Gaming Group had one by one slowly start to play less of the game that they all played with. So once colleague started, Lucy was the only one left on that game, so she too had quit after getting a job.

Their world grew apart more and more after each day passed.

"Did you keep up with its updates though? I saw a lot of new things had been added, it looks fun." he said, trying to keep the conversation up, since it was the only thing that had anything to do with each other.

"Of course I did, it would be all over Facebook, the pages that I liked always appear first on the top." Lucy had replied. She wonder why Natsu still bothered to have a conversation with her. She never really was the talkative type. In fact Lucy was thinking of saying an excuse to get out of that situation.

"Awesome, I was wondering if you would like to go see the live competition in Stella. I have two tickets for it if you want to, it's next Saturday and Sunday." He said.

"Me? Wouldn't Gray or Gajeel be more suitable for it?" Lucy asked since they were more closer to Natsu than she was and they had played the game longer than she had since she only started when Yukino had mentioned it. Speaking of Yukino, Lucy and her had not meet up since she transferred but they do chit chat here and there once in awhile online.

"They said they were busy, so you're the only person left." He replied.

Oh, so she was just a backup plan, well, at least she was thought of.

"Sure why not, I heard you can get special codes to unlock stuff and I would like to see the merchandise they have as well." said Lucy, she had always been a merchandise fan type, always going to events to get new badges, shirts, hoodies, plushies and posters on the fandoms she loved.

"Cool, I'll text you the meeting place later this week You didn't change your phone number did you?" Natsu had asked. Lucy shook her head, her number was the same. Both of them had numbers from everyone in the grade, it was on the grade's WhatsApp group after all.

"Well, I better get going before it gets even later. I have an appointment tomorrow." She said, even though it was a complete lie. She was free the whole day tomorrow, she just wanted to get out of the situation before it turned awkward again.

"Oh no you don't, I have your schedule list from Levy and it says you're free the whole day tomorrow."

Well that was unexpected.

Lucy had to pause for a moment to comprehend what he had said, was he turning into a stalker too?

"What? Why?" Lucy had asked. This Natsu was entirely different from past Natsu, past Natsu would never ask people out.

"Well, firstly I said we are either going back to the hotel or to your house because either way I'm driving. Secondly, like I said before, let's catch up on each other and lastly, don't you want to see how Happy is?'

What was he doing? Lucy had just wanted to avoid an awkward situation from happening but he was being so hard to do so.

Lucy sighed, it wasn't like she had a choice considering she was practically forced to abandon her car back at the school's parking lot. Lucy knew that their relationship wouldn't last if they had one in the first place. Damn were feelings troublesome.

But she really did want to see Happy.

With another heavy sigh out of her mouth, "Let's go then, I just want to get out of this tight dress."


Sorry for the short chapter. Next chapter is Natsu's POV.

You guys got any ideas? Cuz I certainly lack the mentality of imagination right now.
