Anime: Fairy Tail by Mashima Hiro

Chapter 9 ~ sorry it took so long. I've been a busy bee. ;)

Enjoy!

~ Normal P.O.V

Natsu dragged himself back to Fairy Tail. He didn't know what to expect when he got back. He didn't think anyone would forgive him for what he did. He didn't even know why he did that. "Damn! Why did I do that? Was it that I...I saw a nakama in pain?" Natsu tried to think why, but he failed at that. (Dang it, Natsu! You dense idiot!)

He walked in though the guild doors with an emotionless look on his face. All eyes were on him. Some of them were dark glares and others were sympathetic for him. In a second Erza ran up and punch him in the face.

Normally that punch would just hurt his face, but there was nothing normal about this day. The punch knocked him down to the ground. He started to try to get up, but he was too weak. "What the hell were you thinking?" Erza screamed at him. "I'm sorry every one." As soon as that mumble left his mouth he started sobbing.

Erza stepped back in shock, but then she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked behind her and saw Jellal. "Jellal?" She looked at him with shock. Jellal just shuck his head to tell Erza to give the boy some space. Erza's face now took on a sad look as she turned to see a crying Natsu on the ground. Everyone just looked at him with sad eyes.

"What just happened back there?" I asked myself. Just remembering it made my heart feel shattered. After a second, a thought popped in my head. "Where am I even going?" I took out my ticket and looked at the print. "Owiny Beach. I'm going to the beach huh." Memories of the beach flooded though my mind. One I remembered very vividly.

~ Flash Back Time! :icononionharpplz:

"Natsu, don't throw that at Gray!" I yelled playfully. I knew that would spoil Natsu's plain to sneak attack Gray. "LLLLuuucccceee, you ruined my plan!" Natsu pouted. Natsu's face was so cute and sad; I had to make him happy again. "Aww. Come on Natsu. Don't be sad, I-I'll buy you dinner tonight."

His sad little pout turned into a big smile. I couldn't help but smile as he jumped around with joy.

Later that day, after dinner and the hours and hours of partying, it was time to sleep. I was so tired and lucky me, I got the softest bed at the resort. The problem was Natsu got the hardest. "Please, just for to night Lucy?" he begged me. I was so tired and I didn't want to deal with this. "Fine. But just for tonight". Man was he happy.

Lucy smiled to herself. "That was the first time I let Natsu sleep with me." She thought to herself.

Lucy finally came out of her trance when the speaker went on. "Attention Passengers. Owiny Beach is 5 minutes away."

Lucy couldn't believe her ears. "How long was I day dreaming about Natsu and Gray?" she asked herself. She paused. In seconds her face was red. "D-Did I just say that?!" She yelled at herself.

Since it was getting late no one was really awake on the train. Lucy's scream woke them up. "Opps" She smiled as innocently as possible. "Sorry."

~Lucy P.O.V

The train arrived at the station and we all stepped off. "What am I gonna do?" I thought to myself. "I mean I didn't even think this though. I was just so upset I just left." I smiled sadly. "I'm good at that, just leavening when things get hard." I whispered guiltily to myself.

I shock my head. "I need to focus." I said sternly. "Alright, I should find a hotel first since its getting late."

I look around the board walk seeing where a hotel might be. "Finally!" I shout with joy. I had finally I found a hotel.

~Time Skip~

I looked out the window from my hotel room. It was such a pretty beach sunset. I looked around the beach and no one was walking or playing there. "Well that's strange." Then an idea popped in my head. I clapped my hands and smiled wide. "I could have the whole beach to myself!" I ran down and out of the lobby and the beach.

I took off my heels and wiggled my toes in the sand. It was so soft and warm. It just completely relaxed me, like this sand was just sitting there waiting for only me. I close my eyes and feel the cool breeze blow against my face. I took in the warm glow of the setting sun.

Then an image popped into my mind. It made me want to cry again. I was remembering the scene from earlier today with Natsu and Gray.

I start to walk along the beach to try to forget again, but my mind just flooded with the images that scared me most.

After I walked for about 5 minutes, I gave into the sadness. I plopped down into the sand and sobbed. I am not a drama queen, but I just wanted to give up on life. I couldn't face everyone in the guild anymore. I would be unwelcomed there.

As the tears streaked down my face, I felt a welcoming hand on my back. I turn to see one of my friends, Loke. "Hello princess." He smiled.

So what did you think? Please review! ;)
