hello lovelies,

so I decided to spice things up a bit back at the guild

and reveal how Juvia's departure affected the guild

this chapter is slightly inappropriate (lemonyish)

also strong language

I promise to get back to Juvia's situation in the next chapter

have a lovely day

Lucy POV

I tried to walk as quickly as possible out of the damn guild, swooshing from side to side a bit. It was inevitable that he would follow me, seeing the distress in my eyes. The cobblestone road stretched further and further before me. I felt like I was walking for hours on end, seeing the sunset greet me with every step. I could hear his footsteps behind me and yet I didn't slow down. I kept my normal pace, acting as if he wasn't there. He seemed to be getting closer, anticipating a conversation. "I know you hear me, Lucy." Natsu said, a few feet away from me. I slowly halted and turned to meet his gaze. "Yet, you see I'm ignoring you and approach me anyway." I sighed. Natsu has been a bit off ever since Juvia left. More serious and stern unlike his usual dense and goofy self. "Well, I'm inviting myself in for some grub." He spoke nonchalantly as he walked pass me, casually putting his hands behind his head. I grew aggravated. "How do you know I'm not busy? I may have plan-" "Cancel them." He interrupted as he continued walking toward my apartment. Even when I said this would be our goodbye, he still squirms into my life and manages to turn it upside. I dragged my feet, treading behind him in defeat. Naturally, I became more submissive to his orders. He no longer smiled as much and neither did I. I couldn't handle continuously fighting for control or arguing, I had no energy so I just obeyed. We reached my apartment at last, and I took the lead, twiddling the keys into the lock and walking through the door. I threw the keys on the counter next to the door and stretched, surprisingly tired and sobered. "Come in the kitchen, I'll fix us up some dinner."

Natsu quietly obeyed as he gently made his way into the kitchen, sitting at the dinner table. I grabbed ingredients for some vegetable soup and began mincing. The room echoed with silence and surprisingly I was comfortable with it. I got used to the silence. "Where's Happy?" I finally spoke up, seeing as the fur ball was not accompanying him. "Makarov created a new team of Exceeds and so Happy is now joined with Charla and Pantherlily. He believes it gives them the true right to be apart of the guild and recognized for their true potential." Natsu finished, propping his elbow up on the table and resting his chin on his hands. "My my, Natsu," I said slyly as I dropped the vegetables in a pot, my back facing towards him. "Such big words, is there an alter ego I should know about?" I turned around to see his reaction in which he had the time to swiftly get up from his chair and caged me into the counter, both of his hands resting on the edges of the counter next to my hips. I gasped, exasperated though my expression was late, considering his speed. I looked up, and winced, completely confused. He gazed down, a devious glint shimmered in his eyes. "Would you like to find out?" His voice was husky and soft. The spot of annoyingly seductive guy was already taken by Loki. I was also used to this since Loki generally harassed me when I was at home. So I decided to play along.

I chuckled and looked down for a second, only to retaliate with the same spark in my eyes and he raised an eyebrow. "Try me." I said calmly. His eyes grew hard, as he was trying to contemplate something. We were beyond our normal selves now, loss deals heavily with one's mind. We aren't so stern, hard headed. Both of us, can't handle loss. My father.. as well as Igneel. It just sets reminders, like time bombs into which another person is lost. "Lucy.." He breathed as he backed away and leaned on the kitchen table, looking down in shame and finished: "I had actually came here to.. discuss something with you." I sat on the counter, awaiting for more. It was unlike him to directly tell me something, though we are completely out of whack as if in an alternative dimension where emotion barely exists. "It's about Lisanna." He spoke hurriedly. I raised an eyebrow. "And?" I asked impatiently, curious as to how this was relevant to me. "Well, me and her.. I don't know, our relationship is more than complicated. She's been comforting me lately, and I guess.. we did things. Nothing too serious, of course." I morphed my mouth into a hard line. A pool of heat grew in the inner pit of my stomach yet I waved it off. I promised myself I would try and let go of him. "Lucy, I'm sorry. I couldn't tell anyone else and I just needed someone to talk to. Besides, I thought you should have a right to know-" "What?" I growled, jumping off the counter. "What the hell do I have to do with you banging Lisanna?" I hissed angrily as I got in his face, causing him to recline in shock. "You don't fucking own me.

I don't give a damn about what the guild says about our relationship." I may of had feelings for him but I hated being his little damsel and the men at the guild called me his "booty call" due to him bragging about how he sneaks into my apartment at night. I hated the idea of being owned, I let my guard down a bit, be a little submissive due to my lack of conviction for arguing and the whole situation is in hell. Natsu cocked his head to the side, a flash of anger in his eyes, standing at full height. "I never said anything about owning you. And don't speak so foully about Lisanna, we didn't do anything-" "You might as well have with Fairy Tail's little lost princess. You have the audacity of thinking that you banging that whore would bother me in the slightest." My words sliced through the air as I made my way around the table to set plates. Natsu stood shocked by my words and finally snapped. He spun around and slammed his hands on the table, startling me. "Listen here, say one more thing about that girl.. I swear.." He started shaking. "Oh, I'm sorry, lets go find some comfort in my childhood friend. Oh wait, lemme get in this slut's pants while I'm at. See if I fucking care, Natsu Dragoneel. See if I fucking care." I sneered. That was the last straw. Natsu grabbed the table and flipped it sideways with gruesome strength. I watched in horror as it smacked into the wall, everything clattering and shattering around us. He quickly stomped towards me and grabbed my arms, forcing me to look at him. "Don't.. don't you fucking act like you don't feel anything for me. I know you do, I know."

He breathed heavily as he continued. "As for Lisanna, yeah, fuck I'm a guy, right?" He laughed darkly. "She provided. I willfully accepted." I breathed heavily as well, engulfing the scene. We both looked like crazed animals fighting for survival. Both bloodthirsty. His pink hair was in a frenzy, dew on his forehead. The kitchen was a mess, broken plates and silverware. A broken table, a huge dent in the wall. This man was a monster. I looked at him with sheer disgust and said: "Go, fuck yourself. And that stupid cunt." Natsu's eyes widened with wild rage as he fiercely crushed his lips on mine. He did so, with such force that we collided with the wall behind us. He put his hand out to ensure I wouldn't slam into it. I returned the petrifying kiss with a glorious ambition for dominance, still raging with anger. He slammed his fists on the wall behind me without breaking the kiss. We clawed at each other, still surrounded by furious tension. I made sure to draw blood from his putrid lip as I bit it maliciously. He pulled away from the kiss, still caging me. He licked the blood off of his lips and smirked in a sinister manner. Grabbing my hair and leaning me in for another lip smashing kiss, he picked me up allowing me to wrap my legs around his waist. We struggled and smashed and collided with everything in sight all the way to the bedroom. We told each other everything, every emotion about our lost nakama, our guild falling apart, words unsaid. We poured our hearts out that night, without any words.

Day was our limit. Oh, how much I hated the sun.

so that was it!
