BURN

My mind races; I'm not thinking straight. C'mon you idiot, you need to be the rational one. I look at my surroundings. What can I break that might not get me kicked in the balls. No. No, stop Nat. Think straight, remember you're breathing. I take 10 deep breath and my anger drops from a whopping 10 to a 6. Ok analyze the room. This girl whom I just met, was sobbing as hard as she could into my chest. Ok Nat, good, what else? Light? Light had been piercing through crescents of slits in the window shades. God it was morning already? We had been talking all night, literally. The Tv's cable box said that it was 7:02. Just like the night, everything in my life was changing so quickly. Honestly I hate this. I had not a care in the world before all this. I could deal with the occasional "dude, what even are you?" and the daily stares, but this? This was crazy. I mean everything was manageable before this girl came into my life. This stupid, annoying, messed up, crazy, beautiful, insane girl. I'm just so confused with this. I'm torn, half of me keeps telling me, ditch this bitch, but the other half is saying she needs you and something else I don't quite understand. I was becoming anxious. My gut was beginning to twist and my skin was beginning to crawl. My lighter was in my pocket but Lucy was in my arms. If I didn't soon, I would explode.

"You're shaking." A voice says breaking my thoughts. My eyes widen. I look down, blonde hair was tussled against my chest. "You're shaking." The voice repeats. The blonde pushes off me gently and looks up at me with a twisted smile. Who was this? This was not her. The girl holds up my lighter and waving it around my face. It was mine from my pocket… How on Earth did she get it. It had three dragons that I painted on it, one blue, one black, and the last one red.

"Give that to me." I snap snatching it from her. The girl gives me a sly laugh. "Who are you?" I ask raising an eyebrow. She sits up like a puppy and places her fists in her lap. "Who. Are. You?" I say through clenched teeth. She laughs this shrill high-pitched screech like a witch.

"Oh sweetie, I thought it would take you a longer time to figure this out." She says innocently. This voice makes my stomach twist. She bites her lip and starts playful tugging on my scarf, when I swat her hand away she pouts. "Natsuuuuu why are you so mean!" She whines and crosses her arms like a six year old. She looks me up and down and her face relaxes. Her expression goes from playful sadness to delightfully intrigued. She begins playing with my scarf again. "Well, actually, you can be mean to me if you-" she leans into me lowering her voice as she spoke. I grab her hands interrupting her and I shoot daggers into her eyes.

"If you think you can play †his game with me, then you're dead wrong. Now tell me who the hell you are and give me Luce back." My voice drips with poison.

"Natsuuuuu you're so cute when you're mad. I'm just playing around. Now come over here and let me feel good for a little bit." She says winking.

"Shut your damn mouth." I practically shout. "You're not Lucy so tell me who you are."

"Damn!" She pouts again. "I've never been with a pink haired boy! I wanted to see what it's like!" I roll my eyes. It's salmon actually, I say in my head. "Anyways," she sings. "I'm Taurus, but on the streets I'm Tory the whorey." I wanted to punch her. "But, that's not the reason I'm here. I'm just testing the waters for her. " Her? I ask in my head. "But bye bye for now!" 'Tory' closes her eyes and Lucy goes limp for a few moments. I hold her for not knowing what to do.

"Please release me." The girl says. I liked this one more then Taurus. It was assertive, strong, and comforting. I let go of her awkwardly.

"Who are you?" I ask weirdly.

"I am Aquarius. The one you don't want to screw with." She says.

"Oh are you now?" I retort. She raises an eyebrow. She takes out the ring of keys and slowly looks for her key. She finds it and raises her left arm and puts the bade to her skin and slides it. A trail of blood pours down her wrist. "WHAT THE HELL STOP!" I grab her wrist and squeeze it trying not to let her bleed to death.

"She has told you too much." Aquarius says. "That deserves punishment."

"No she doesn't. You can't control her." I snap. "She is allowed to make her own to do whatever the hell she wants."

"I control her to keep her safe!" Aquarius spits.

"That's making it worse!" I shout. Is it? "If she doesn't live how will she be safe?"

"She needs punishment." Aquarius says.

"She needs a friend." I say. Does she?

"How would you know? You just met her. She tells you some backstory and you automatically know her? You don't know her. You don't know what's best for her." Aquarius hisses.

"No. You're right, I don't know her. But I want to know her. I want to know everything about her." I snap. I did?

"Last guy who did that ended up hurting her." She says looking away from me. "I am not letting that happen again."

"It won't." I say. "I don't want to hurt her." Why is my chest hurting? "I want to her to be happy." Aquarius looks at me for a few seconds then her tight frown relaxes.

"You get one shot. You make her so much as frown, you will never see that again. And that is a promise." She closes her eyes and her body relaxes.

"WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?!" I scream confused and frustrated. Lucy jolts up out of breath.

"What, what just happened?" She looks at me wide eyed and confused. Something twisted inside my throat and my chin tightens. Lucy looks up at me. "What's wrong?" My-er uh Lucy was back. And the fact that she had repeated what I just said was humorous to me.

"BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" I laugh uncontrollably. Something about these past 24 hours was unreal, crazy and funny for some reason. "You know what? This entire night has been freaking crazy and I'm starving lets continue this craziness ditch classes and get breakfast."

"Uh, sure?" Lucy gets up and gives me a crooked smile and wobbily walks away. She comes back wearing a black hoody and leggings. We leave the house and walk to the diner near the school.

Sitting at a table Lucy and I make awkward eye contact and small talk. She always gave me this disgustingly cute smile when I glanced up at her.

"Natsu-sama?" A shrill annoying voice I knew way too well. I look at and mouth the words 'Help me'. She raises her menu to cover her eyes and I could hear quiet giggles. Footsteps become quicker and louder and the repeated "Natsu-sama" gets more and more annoying.

"Oh, god." I sigh.

"Natsu Dragneel? Is that you?" The voice asks. I look up and a white haired demon stares back at me. "It's me! Lisanna! You know from English class?"

"Oh yea, hi." I say with false enthusiasm.

"Who's that?" Lisanna asks me pointing at Lucy. Luce puts her menu down.

"Please don't point at me. It is extremely rude. And you could ask me who I am. He does not speak for me." Lucy says with a smile that could kill.

"Oh right! You're the emo that just moved here!" Lisanna says.

"What makes you think I'm emo?" Luce asks. My heart races and a smile creeps on my face.

"Well you're wearing all black, you got the piercings…" Lisanna trails off.

"And?" Lucy asks. I knew exactly what she was pulling. Lucy was trying to get her to start talking about cutting and self harm.

"And… You know.. I figured you." Lisanna looked sheepish.

"You figured I what?" Lucy smiles. "Cut?"

"I dunno… forget it." Lisanna looks toward me.

"No I want to hear it." Lucy taunts. "You think you have me all figured out don't you."

"I didn't say that." She blushes.

"You didn't have to." Lucy looks down and scoffs. "My turn. You've been spoiled all you're life. You're the youngest of your siblings. You got whatever you like whenever you like, but when you got into the real world, you realized that you can't have everything you want because one day you stumbled upon something you want but that something doesn't want you back. And you can't stand it." Lisanna looks so shocked.

"Nat-natsu-samaaa you're going to let her talk to me like that?" She pouts at me. This was way to familiar.

"Screw off." I snap, rolling my eyes.

"Yet another difference between you and I, I do not need a guy to fight for me. See you have nothing left to say so you're going to get prince charming to fight for you. But here is a news flash! The world isn't going to love you the way mommy and daddy did." Lucy says with a whining voice.

"Natsuuuuu-samaaa!" Lisanna cries.

"Lisanna, shut up! You're voice is making my head split open." I snap rubbing my temples. She humphs and stomps away like a two year old. As soon as she leaves, Lucy bursts out laughing.

"Oh my god Nat! She's your biggest fan!" Lucy says wiping tears from her eyes.

"Shut up." I mumble embarrassed.

"I want her to be my best friend- BAHAHAHAHA. I cant even say that with a straight face!" She laughs. I roll my eyes. "Natsu-sama" she teases. That makes my heart beat faster and my face burn red. God I'm a loser.
