Chapter 20
Im scared
(Lucy's POV)
It has been ten to fifteen minutes now, and Natsu hasnt said one word. I looked up from the sheets I was staring during about half of this.
The slayer was staring at the floor, his pink bangs covering any emotins that could be seen on his face. 'Say something!' I scremed at him, of course in my head. "N-Natsu...?" I asked causiously. He looked up a bit at his name. "T-tell me what y-your thinking." I said, more then asked.
He looked up more to reveal his face: is eyes where watery, a few of the taers had broken free and his usual childish grin was replaced with a shivering frown. "Natsu..." I trailed off not knowing what to say. Its one of the few times I had seen him cry, and was thankful it didnt happen often, because my heart was hurt just to see him like this.
I slowly moved my left hand torwards his. I grabbed it and pulled him in a hug. "Why a-am I getti-ing comforting, when yo-your the one thats hurting?" Asked the sobbing fire dragon slayer.
I let him sob some more before putting him to arms lenght. "Natsu, I am here because you brung me here. I wouldve been a gone if you hadnt saved me, like always. You haveno idea how many times you comforted me by just giving my that grin of yours. 'So do me a favor, will ya?' " I asked, quoting him on that last part. He nodded. "Make me happy and bring smile on that pretty face of yours!" I smiled full heartedly when a half sad, half happy smile appeared on his face.
-~Some time later~-
I never laughed as much as I did today. After all that muchy stuff ended, Natsu had almost made himself my one personal comedian. I knew he wanted me to forget the dark shadows of my past for at least a while, and he was getting extremly funny! Once I was laughing so hard, I thought I would never be able to breath again! And Natsu was worried more then he should... I lo- WOW! SLOW DOWN! NO LOVE! Yet... :)
The day was comming to an end, to my disapointment, and Natsu was about to leave. Thats when I got an idea. I was going to feel guilty later, but it is going to be worth it. "N-Natsu... I dont w-wanna b-be in my r-room all al-alone..." He turned around with a worried look on his face. "But I have to go..." I shivered, making my act more belivable. "But I can sty a little longer, if you want?" I nodded my head slowly.
He sat on the chair beside me. "Why are you scared?" He asked. "My mom, sh-she was always in the hospi-ital..." I mummbled, tears comming in my eyes from remembering those dark times. "Oh..." Natsu mummbled. He rose from his seat and sat on the bed, next to me. He gave me a warm hug. "Im sorry you should go and rest..." I was defenetly feeling guilty. "Dont worry, I can sleep next to you!" He stated inocently. "O-okay..." I said feeling heat raise in my cheeks. "Are you okay, your face is all red!" He asked/said worriedly.
Its been about two minutes I have been trying to tell him not to worry so much about me, but he keeps on ranting about how there is probably every thing to worry about. So to shut him up, I put my hands on both sides of his handsom face and kissed him. It took him a second to realise what was happening, but soon kissed back.
Then we cuddled on the hospital bed and slipped into a deep slumber.
