I'm back with chapter 39 of my amaing story! Please R&R and I shall see you at the bottom of the page.

POV: Lucy, Lucy

Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail

"CHELIA," I scream continuing to pound my fists against the door, "CHELIA, OPEN THE DOOR THIS INSTANT!" I rap harder on the door before then throwing my weight into the door feeling my already hurt shoulder scream in pain, "Chelia!"

"I'm sorry Lucy," her voice sounds soft and muffled as I stop noticing that tears are streaming down my cheeks, "But they did warn you, didn't they?" I freeze feeling all the blood leave my face as a single rule runs through my head like a sick chant, don't get caught, don't get caught, don't get caugh, it jumps around in my skull painfully, "You should have listened and stayed away."

"What are..."

"You know what I'm talking about Lucy. You know very well what I'm talking about."

Before I can start screaming and pounding on the door again I feel a cool breeze hit me from behind and the sound of a squeaking hinge behind me has be turning to stare into a single dark black eye with a glowing violet iris that gazes down at me ominously. I jump back away from the creature and my back instantly hits the door preventing me from escaping as I continue to stare at the monster before me.

He's tall and looms so high over me that if he were to stand straight his head would most likely hit the ceiling of my room. From what I can see through the darkness of my room he has long green hair and two curling horns that protrude from the sides of his head. His arms and legs along with his sides are covered in a thick dark fur and his chest looks as if it were covered in thick armor instead of flesh. He is a demon and I am his prey.

Screaming, I jump out of the way as he makes a grab for me and I land on the flor beside him while he crashes into the door leaving a crack running up the thick wood. I scramble to my feet and search around the dark room for any means of escpe when my eyes land on the nearby open window just over my bed. A heavy hand grabs the back of my shirt and I shriek before pulling myself away from him and hearing the fabric tear behind me and I internally complain how this had been one of my favorite shirts. Shaking the thought from my head, i grab one of my plastic sorting bins and throw it over at the creature before climbing onto my bed and pushing my pink curtain aside revealing the open window.

Looking out of the window I spot a nearby tree that is only a few feet away and big enough to climb on. It's probably the tree that Natsu uses to climb through my window when he comes to visit and it would now be my means of escape.

A growl behind me has me looking over my shoulder at the monster who glares at me with burning eyes and I grab my hardcover English textbook from my bed and chuck it at him. I don't wait to see if the book makes contact before I swing my legs through the open window and crouch down on the window sill as I search for a sturdy branch to grab onto. I immediately find one and I instantly jump feeling a hand swipe at my back as I do so. I grab onto the branch I had spotted with both hands and feel the tough uneven bark cut into my palms as I hang twenty feet off the ground. My arms scream out in pain as I look back over towards my window and find the monster looking back at me.

He seems too big to fit through the window and I start to wonder how he got into my room in the first place with his size when I notice that he's starting to shrink. Scratch that, he seems to be changing and his demon form starts to look more human by the second.

Before I can see him completely change the branch I'm holding onto snaps and the last thing I remember is falling and a deep pain running up my right arm.

When I woke up again I recognize the white walls of the hospital room almost immediately through the dim glow of the moonlight pouring in through the nearby window. The sound of the heart monitor also gives away to my location and in my numb left arm I can feel the all toofamiliar prick of an IV cord in my arm. There's also the stiff uncomfortable bed underneath meand the strong clean smell of Clorox and rubbing alcohol in the air that gives more away.

I look around the room and notice the door open a few feet away allowing light to fill the room and when I turn my head in the direction of the light I spot dark pink hair disappearing through the doorway before the door closes leaving me in the darkness again. My head throbs from and unknown pain, but it doesn't feel like a headache and it doesn't necessarily hurt. It mostly feels as if my mind were going fuzzy leaving me a bit dazed and confused. My right arm also hurts when I try to move it and I know that it's broken from the feel of the constrictive cast around it.

The door clicks nearby as I stare up at the ceiling while trying to remember what had happened to me to get me into the hospital this time, but my head is so hazy that it's really hard to remember much. Light once again floods the room blinding my unfocused eyes and I notice a dark figure enter the room slowly before closing the door and shutting all the light behind them. The person stays standing by the door looking almost scared to walk any further and from my peripheral vision I can tell who my guest is this time.

"Natsu," I call after said figure continues to stand by the door awkwardly.

He stuffs his hands into the pockets of his pants and ducks his face into his scarf leaving only his dark eyes visible for me to see, and action I've come to recognize him doing whenever he's embarrassed or guilty. I call for the latter this time from his body language, though I don't really know why he should be guilty at all. He makes his way towards me and gives me a muffled, "Hey Luce, What's up," sounding as if he were trying to hold something back, whether it be tears or profanities, I don't know.

"What-what happened to me," I ask feeling my voice shake and he flinches as he stands beside me, "The last thing I remember is Chelia closing the door to my room and a man with a dark purple eye cornering me before I blacked out," It's true, so far that's all I remember and it's little to explain why I'm here in the hospital with a broken arm. It seems that part of my memory is missing.

Natsu tenses up and through the dim moonlight I can see his teeth clench angrily and I also notice his arms shaking while his hands dig deeper into the pockets of his pants. He instantly calms down and then sits at the endge of my bed before taking my good hand into his warm one and I can feel myself lightly blush as I continue to stare up at the ceiling.

"Your guess is as good as mine," he answers bluntly surprising me as I look on over at him a bit confused. He sits there remaining silent seeming to be contemplating something before he encasses my hand in both of his as he clears his throat, "Lucy, I need to tell you something," he then whispers as I turn my head giving him all of my attention, "I want to apologize for everything that's happened to you. It's my entire fault and I'm so sorry. Could you ever forgive me?" He pleads and I stare at him completely confused with his words.

What did he mean that he wanted to apologize? It's not like he was the one who locked me in my room or snuck in behind me dressed like a monster and tried to kill me. How could it have been his fault when he wasn't even there?

Maybe he's sorry that he wasn't able to catch me this time.

I open my mouth and then close it as I try to find something to say to him. Even though I'm certain that he had nothing to do with any of this, somewhere deep in my heart I can feel that he's saying the truth. This thought hurts me as I sigh heavily and look up at him as I say, "It wasn't your fault," and he grimaces, "I just get so clumsy sometimes..."

"But it is my fault," he argues while cutting me off, "If I had listened to Makarov and stayed away from you like I had initially promised, none of this would have happened. You'd be safe and living a normal life instead of looking over your shoulder for some evil you can't see,"

Wait, what?!

"Makarov?" I ask completely incredulous to the mentioning of my grandfather's name, "What does he have to do with anything? Natus, what's going on?" I ask feeling myself begin to panic. Was my grandfather keeping secrets from me as well? The thought has my heart monitor beeping erratically behind me from my distress and Natsu squeezes my hand to reassure me that everything is alright, but I know very well that it's not.

Natsu looks at me with a determined look that scares me far greater than the eyes that have been watching me, "Lucy, I'm going away for a while," He states in a firm tone and I feel my heart stop for a split second before it hammers far harder against my chest in painful leaps, "I just came by to apologize for everything I've done to you, intentional or not, and to say my goodbye."

I wrack my head for something to say, but it seems my head has become even fuzzier and I can't really think straight. I feel my eyes burn with forming tears which blur my vision even more and all I want is to throw myself onto Natsu and beg for him not to leave, but my head is getting hazier and it's become nearly impossible for me to move my body.

"You can't go, you just can't," I finally plead as I clutch onto his hand with the little strength I have left. It's getting even harder to keep my eyes open now, but I force them to stay open as I continue to clutch onto Natsu's hand, "Natsu, I-I love you," I cry causing both of us to freeze.

It's true. I am in love with Natsu Dragneel. I don't know how it came to be this way but I did know that what I said was true. Hysteria and the fear of losing him had nothing to do with me admitting this and even though we've known each other for such little time I knew what my true feelings were. Truth be told that the first time I had seen him in this very room I had felt as if I had already met him before long ago. He is a familiar stranger and I was in love with him.

Determination encompasses Natsu's face and soon he starts to lean down towards me completely surprising me, "N-Natsu, what a-are you doing?" I ask feeling my face burn as he gets closer to me.

"I'm going to make the eyes that have been watching you and scaring you go away," he whispers and before I can ask how he knows about the eyes I feel his warm lips crash onto mine in a satisfying kiss .

The last think on my mind before I black out once again is how he tasted like love and salty tears.

These were the memories I had previously lost.

Sorry I'm late guys, this week has been hectic like you can't believe. I went out with my family on valentines day and did some errands while buying some new clothes. My mom also bought me some casual dresses and trust me when I said we had an argument as to what colors I wanted. She insisted I get 'color' clothing instead of my usual black and other dark colors. I'm not gothic or anything, but those of you who are I respect you completely and I actually enjoy your sense of style, But I just like how dark clothing looks on me. She ended up winning and I got two new dresses with one white with colored swirls on it and the other one had painted salmon colored flowers on it. The second one kind of reminded me of the dress that Amy tied convincing everyone to wear in the bridesmaids movie. BTW these are the first casual dresses I've owned since I was like twelve and I'm eighteen now... pretty sad. It's also sad how I haven't owned a single skirt since I was in the fourth grade and how I can't wear a dress without wearing shorts underneath... The rest of the week was taken up with school and band practice and I went to the carnival yesterday. It was fun and since today I have off and don't have to go to school until Tuesday I decided to update today. I also updated today because tomorrow I come out in my town's grand parade and it is tiring like you can't believe. I pray to the heavens that it is cold tomorrow if not I will die in my band uniform.

BTW how was your guys's week and Valentine?

Anywho, enough of my ranting because I'd like to dedicate this chapter to my good friend FanFictionLeon who gave me the idea of writing a POV of Lucy when I had Chelia betray her and have monster Freed attack her. Also, I just realized that in chapter 24 I didn't mention Lucy's broken arm, but I guess that's ok because it does mention it in the following chapter and now you know how she broke it.
