Leaning against her elbow, Lucy stared at the television that was near the kid's department right by the front desk, watching through the glass as commercials showed and kid shows were produced. The hospital was slow and boring today as not much happened—almost everything going on slow motion. She's been in the same position for almost twenty minutes, now, her eyelids feeling heavy.

"Geez, can't anything interesting happen?" The twenty-five year old nurse groaned as she looked at the cleared closed doors of the hospital. "I've been watching spongebob for the past twenty minutes now."

"Oh Lucy, relax a bit, enjoy the break!"

"I would but every time I try to have a break, I become even more tired."

"Go have a coffee break or something."

"Nah," Lucy let out a sigh as she adverted her gaze back to the television where a commercial played for the kid's choice award. "I'll just sit here and moan about it." She waved her hand at the other nurse before she started to realize something.

On the television, it showed a band that was going to be doing a opening show, the name sounding awfully familiar.

"Lucy?"

"Shh," the woman hushed her co-worker. "wait a moment..." she walked around the counter to walk over to the kid's section to approach the television, her arms crossed over her chest. She scrunched her face up in confusion as she concentrated on what the television said, her eyes widening in realization.

"New band, Fairy Tail, will be opening for the KCA's this year! With lead singer Natsu Dragneel, bassist Gray Fullbuster and Loke Celeistal, and drummer Jellal Fernandez, the punk rock boy band will rock out the entire place!"

"Fairy Tail... Natsu Dragneel... Natsu?" Lucy gasped out as she soon realized who that was.

Flashbacks of her high school life appeared within her vision and she shook her head, throwing them away.

"No, it's can't be." She laughed lightly as she walked back to her station. "That's crazy, of course not."

"Lucy?" Her fellow co-worked looked at her in concern. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. Um, I'm going to go use the bathroom, be back soon!" She let out an awkward laugh before quickly slipping away and leaving the nurse standing there in confusion and concern.

Meanwhile, the blonde ran towards the restroom, almost knocking over patients and doctors as she did so. People gave her odd looks as she ran into the bathroom but she didn't let it bother. She entered the bathroom and quickly turned the sink on, cupping her palms to allow cold water puddle up before she splashed it on her pale face.

She allowed the water droplets drip off her face and she stared at her reflection, her makeup running to make her look like a clown.

She felt sick as she remembered everything. All the memories and the name made her heart throb in a way it shouldn't; like a scar was reopening.

But she should the freaking out, she was assuming something. There are plenty of Natsu's in the world but how many Natsu Dragneel's did she hear of?

She was a professional nurse, she shouldn't be having a panic attack, she was built to be calm.

She had to be calm. She shouldn't be going into conclusions so quickly and she'll figure things out later but for now, she should just return and pretend nothing ever happened.

After all... how many Natsu's were there in the world?

Finally after a long twelve hour long shift at the hospital, the blonde was home. She took a warm bath—something she became accustomed to—and was dressed in a oversized t-shirt. She booted up her laptop as she dried her hair, squeezing the water out of her golden locks with a towel.

After she's seen that commercial earlier that day, it's been in her mind the entire day and she's been itching to get home.

And now that she's been home, she tried her best to quickly do her nightly duties before she went on her little research.

Once her laptop booted up, the blonde wrapped her towel around her shoulders and tapped on the Internet. Waiting a couple of seconds to let it to open it, she immediately went to the search bar and paused, humming in mm mmm thought. After a couple of seconds, she typed in Natsu Dragneel and watched as thousands of articles and items popped up.

She clicked on the first article and watched as her biggest fear came up, a picture of the band coming forth.

"Natsu..." Lucy muttered out on impulse as she stared at the photo of the pink-haired singer.

Suddenly, memory after memory started to come and she felt her heart throb in a way she shouldn't be feeling.

"Hey, Lucy!"

"Did you make this for me?"

"What do you mean I have to study?!"

"I'm hungry, Luce!"

"Lucy, I'm bored!"

"I'm fired up!"

"Lucy, I love you."

Squeezing her eyes shut, Lucy let out a shaky breath as she tried to shut out the memories.

Natsu Dragneel... that was a name she hadn't heard of in a very long time. Almost seven years, she has to say and it's been a painful seven years. She couldn't believe her eyes, this male whom she's known very well and long was actually making his dream come true. She remembered when they were kids and he would always tell her how he'll become famous like an actor or a singer. She would always laugh it off and tell him how she was going to be one, too.

But nearly years later, she went into the medical field and he went to the singing career.

Now, here they were at age twenty-five, living their lives as a professional nurse and professional singer.

She wonders... how is he?


"Hey, dickface, have you seen my phone?"

"How the fuck would I know?" The pink-haired male scowled at his phone as his fellow band member looked at him. "I don't just take people's phones and hide them like its some kind of game." He chewed on his hoodie string as it became a habit during the years of his adolescents.

His band-mate just scowled at him as he clicked his tongue and turned around to retrace his steps once more, his eyes carefully grazing every area in their hotel bedroom.

While in reality, the idiot left his phone right on the table where it was so obvious, he couldn't see it.

"You know what we should do?" Loke spoke up from his corner of the room. "We should do a TwitCam!"

"Sounds like a good idea," Jellal spoke up from where he was sitting on one of the beds, the three of them all silent in thinking. "I'll pull mine up. All of you—tweet about it right now and we'll go live in ten." The drummer announced as he casually started to type something up in his computer before it started a worldwide trend of Fairy Tail going live.

It got thousands of girls getting ready for one and in matter of minutes, four idiotic boys were present on the screen where the camera was low quality and the sound was lagging. But it still had over a million views and thousands of comments popping up one after another.

"Natsu, come say hi," Loke said but only received a hum from the male. "Natsu."

"Hi guys," the male singer murmured from his place making Loke and Jellal roll their eyes at his rudeness but ignored it.

"Sorry about him, guys, he's on his man period."

"Goddamn it, where is my phone?!"

"And Gray is looking for his phone."

"Oh my god, it's right there!" Natsu's voice came through out as a shout making Jellal and Loke stare. "You're so fucking—"

"Natsu, watch your language!"

"—dumb and blind!"

"Where?!"

"It's literally right there!"

"Where?!"

"Oh my fucking God—" the rosy-haired male stood up to stomp over towards the table and pick up the phone that's been lying there for the past twenty minutes. "you're dumb as shit!"

"What did you call me?!"

"Not only are you dumb, are you deaf, too?!"

"Guys," Jellal groaned, covering his face with his hands. "we're in the middle of a TwitCam—we're live." He hissed out to inform them that they shouldn't be fighting and using profanity but he was ignored, again.

"I don't want to hear that from somebody like you, punk!"

"Well you did you blind as shit, idiot!"

And suddenly a crash was heard from behind the scenes and curse filled the air.

It was four in the morning when Lucy was woken up, her phone ringing loudly in the dark empty room. She was tired and just wanted to ignore it but with her nursing job and having a fellow nurse being pregnant and all—she had to be prepared. Night shifts were the busiest and hardest but that was when they had the smallest group of nurse so she was used to all this.

So when she was woken up at four in the morning with a phone call telling her she had to come in as soon as she can, she didn't hesitate to get up and go to the hospital.

But what she didn't expect when she came in was all the paparazzi standing outside the hospital waiting for someone or something.

"What's with all the paps outside?" Lucy asked once she came in where the front desk nurses spoke to one after another, her friends all running back and forth. "Is somebody famous here?"

"Apparently," one of them spoke up. "I'm not so sure, though. He's in the emergency room and lucky for you, he's all yours."

"Mine?" Lucy said in pure confusion and surprise as she was handed her clipboard, the blonde watching her co-workers work furiously. "Why is he mine?"

"Lily had to go home and everyone else is busy so he's your problem, now."

"Wait, I thought I was here to help because Sue—"

"No, I'm here for Sue. You're here for Lily." The nurse flashed a smirk her way as she rapidly typed something into the computer before making her way to the printer. "So, have fun!"

"Wait—"

"C'mon, Lucy!" The other nurse pulled on her arm, yanking her towards the emergency department. "We need you!" She said making Lucy let out an exasperated sigh before making her way to the emergency room.

There were doctors and nurses everywhere, going to room to room where patients laid and where families stood.

She normally wasn't assigned in the emergency room since she hated all the negative energy in there but when she was pulled into work during the night, she was always shoved in there. And since apparently somebody famous was present making it even crazier than usual.

She wonders who it was—maybe a famous actor? Singer?

"Lucy, you go there! I'm going here," the nurse beside her pointed to a room by the corner making her nod and walk towards the corner. She noticed four men in suits standing by it and she realized this must have been that famous person that was taken to the emergency room.

She wonders what he did to bring him to the emergency room. Food poisoning? Cut? Hit? Fallen?

"Excuse me," Lucy softly murmured as she squeezed past the large guards as they barely gave her a glance. "sorry."

"Oh Jesus this fucking hurts, tell me, doctor, am I dying?"

"No, sir, you're not."

"God, this hurts like a bitch. Am I going to be paralyzed forever?"

"You dumbass," one of the males hissed. "if you can still move your leg like that, you're obviously not paralyzed."

After a short silence snuck past them, the male on the bed started to cry about the pain once more, whining about how he was never going to be able to walk and finish his life how he wanted to.

"Erm, excuse me doctor," Lucy muttered as she tried to squeeze past the doctor so she can check his IV cord and such. But with the loads of people that surrounded the bed, she could barely even make out the face of the patient. "I just need to squeeze through so I can check his IV cord and such..."

"Of course," the stressed looking doctor stepped back to allow Lucy to come through. "I'm going to go grab the papers so could you stay here till I return?"

"Yes, I will. Take your time," she spoke as she looked at the IV cord of the patient, noticing it was still half full. "that doesn't have to be filled yet but if you are in more pain, I'll gladly get you some pain killers, sir." Lucy turned to smile and look at the patient but when she looked down, her smile dropped.

She felt her heart drop down to her stomach as she stared down at the male who also stared up at her, the cries coming to a silence making everyone look in worry.

Never did she ever think she would run into famous Natsu Dragneel so soon nor did she ever think that it would feel this sad just to see him, again.

"Y... you're..." he muttered as his familiar orbs racked her up and down and all over her face. "are you... is your... Lucy?"

Swallowing thickly, Lucy offered a small nervous smile as she slowly nodded.

"Yeah... hi, Natsu... it's good to see you." She spoke softly and slowly making his eyes widen even more, his hand reaching up to touch her but when his IV cord got tugged, he hissed out in pain. He pulled his hand back and Lucy frowned, checking the IV cord that was in his vein. "Don't move your hand too much and try not to tug on it a lot or it's going to hurt."

"Wait, did I just hear Lucy Heartfillia?"

Turning around, Lucy looked to see a ink-haired male grinning at her.

"Gray?"

"Hey, it is!" The male shouted as he rounded the bed and went over to wrap his arms around the smaller woman. "It's been—what? Seven years?" He beamed as Lucy flushed and smiled his way. "You're actually a nurse, huh?"

"Yeah, I got my degree a year and a half ago and now here I am,"

"Wow, look at you! Good for you, Lucy."

"Thank you, Gray."

"Excuse me," a new male suddenly stepped forward as he pushed Gray away making him curse in surprise. "I think I hear an angel... who are you, love?" A ginger stood in front of her, grinning from ear to ear.

"Uh..."

"Loke, fuck off." Natsu shouted but ended up wincing as he felt the tug of the IV cord when he raised his arm. "Fucking Christ, this hurts."

"That's right, I'm going to bring you some pain killers and when I see your results, I'll see what else I'll have to do. Im going to get you wheeled to a private room soon so relax, okay?" Lucy pressed her palm against the shoulder of the male making him smile softly and nod, looking up at the blonde whom he's known for a long time.

"Okay."

Looking in his eyes for a bit, Lucy felt her heart throb for a quick moment before she turned away and walked out leaving the injured male laying there with his hand in his hair.

"Holy fuck," he breathed out as he looked at Gray, the one who caused this in the first place. "she's exactly how I remember her."

"Yeah, but she's hotter."

Scowling at the male, Natsu looked back at the open curtains of where he watched the back of the blonde, remembering all the memories they shared together.

"Hey, Natsu, promise me you'll love me forever?"

"I promise."

Why did he ever let that happiness go?
