Chapter 3
After he finished talking, she had another flash back of them together, and she saw her childhood friends with them too.
"NATSU YOU IDIOT! DON'T GO EATING RANDOM FLAMES!"
"Yes Lucy.. I promise I won't do that anymore... ugh my stomach."
Wendy watched as the couple bickered, until someone put a ice cream cone in her face.
"Here you go sweetness, just the way you like it. Are they still fighting over the whole train thing?"
She instantly grabbed the ice cream cone, "Thank you love, and yeah they are, but its more of Lucy beating on Natsu."
Doranbolt put his arms around Wendy as he said, "Well, that's love for you," then chuckled.
The Natsu and Lucy she knew weren't together, but they acted the same way as she saw in the flash back. she could never put her finger on these flash backs, because they felt like it was her memories, but at the same time it felt like it wasn't hers.
Then she suddenly felt dizzy as she felt arms around her, "Wendy! are you okay? Where's your dorm room? I'll take you back there.
Doranbolt was supporting her weight as they walked out the building. Once he got the front doors open she pushed him away steading herself. She started walking away, then turned around looking at him, "It's this way."
Wendy didn't know what to say since everything happened so fast in just one day. More exciting things happened in one day than it did her whole life. She was the shy type that never really talked to anyone, but coming to this school she wasn't expecting something like to happen. She only thought of the dull and ordinary college life that she would've had, but now there was the most handsome guy she ever met behind her watching over her. She didn't know what she was thinking, but now he was following her back to her dorm.
Going up the stairs she could hear his steps behind her. She knew, but she didn't know how she knew, the familiar sound of his footsteps from anywhere. She was feeling sick to her stomach for some reason.
Doranbolt had been watching her the whole way there, and noticed that she started to sway little while she walked.
He grabbed her arm before she could trip, "Wens you okay? You get some rest… I put a lot of stress on you. I'm sorry."
Opening the door she looked at him tiredly, "I'm not sure, but I am pretty tired. Its okay I overreacted in more ways than one. I'll see you tomorrow morning."
She closed the door before he could anything. She found some aspirin in her bathroom, and took two, then flopped on the bed already fast asleep.
Was this a dream? Or is this a memory? Where is this at?
Cana and Lucy were both leaning over Wendy as she tried to shake off a groggy feeling.
"Wendy Its me Lucy and Cana. Do you remember anything?"
She groaned as she got up, "Where am I? Where's Mest?"
Cana looked at Lucy weird as she tried to find a way to explain, "Wendy.. He isn't here.. Instead we found you.."
Wendy was confused what did she mean, "What are you talking about? Where's mest?"
Lucy rubbed Wendy's back as she talked, "Wendy, you went missing a few months ago.. Mest did everything he could to find you, then one day he stopped coming to the guild, everyone got worried so we came over hoping to find him here. No one answered the door so we asked the landlord to open the door, and we found you on the floor here."
Hot tears suddenly rolled down her face, none of this makes sense, he would never leave her to be alone. Not like this, not ever, he must be looking for her, she just has to wait. She sobbed into Lucy's shoulder. Where was he?
Wendy jumped up from her sleep crying, she looked around her room. She was still in her regular clothes, and she dragged herself out of bed to change. Once she laid back down she saw the clock read four o' clock. She has more time to sleep thankfully, and she closed her eyes again.
She woke up to the sound of someone knocking on her door, and opened it to see Doranbolt standing there with a worried look.
He held a small bag in his hand, "Morning, I was worried so I brought some medicine, and some food."
He watched as she ate the rest of the food he got her, then she spoke up, "Thank you, I'll be getting ready now so you can wait here I shouldn't be too long."
She was glad he had came to see her, since she wasn't sure she could make to class on her own, or even make herself breakfast. She felt much better now that she was taking a hot shower, but her head still felt a little foggy.
Doranbolt had went to see her on impulse, but he didn't feel right after he heard her shower turn on. Taking a deep breathe he thought about what he should do to make up for what he did to Wendy, but first they need to leave soon if they want to make it to class. Wendy popped around the corner stuffing something into her bag. Looking at her he noticed her complexion looked better but she was still didn't look so good.
They had walked to class in silence, and even now they still weren't talking at the last part of class. He had noticed that once she sat down she spaced and never once touched her notebook or even opened it. For once in his life he took notes just for her, once the class was dismissed he slide what he wrote down for her into her notebook. At this point he was seriously worried that he might end up getting a heart attack soon if she didn't say anything.
"Wendy, class is over… Come on I'll buy lunch before I leave… Weeendy?"
She cleared her throat, and smiled at him, "I would like that, and I'm sorry I was thinking about something. I didn't even write down anything either… Great."
The tension that had built up in his chest was finally released as he patted her head, "I'm the one that's sorry for what I did to you. I'm really and truly am. So I'll buy you anything you want for lunch and walk you to your next class afterwards. From now on I'll be here when you need me to make up for what I did."
Wendy didn't fully know what her dream meant last night, but she did know she loved Doranbolt more than once with all her heart, so she was going to make the most of it. Because she felt like somewhere deep, deep down she was going to lose him again sooner or later.
She giggled, "If that's the case then you have to pay for all my meals for now on."
He was happy she was smiling again, it hurt him too much to see her the way she was this morning.
