Hey everybody, I want to apologize for not posting this yesterday. I have had a lot going on in my personal life in the last week, and it just slipped my mind. Now, with that said, I hope you enjoy this chapter. Please like, favorite, follow, and review.
Chapter 5
Lucy, who was worried about why Wendy got up spontaneously, followed her as soon as she realized what was happening. She walked over, gathered the younger girl's blue hair, and held it out of the way. She now knew the answer to her questions. After a few minutes, Wendy pulled away and looked at Lucy with tears in her eyes. She knew her secret was out. There was no denying it now.
"Is it Romeo's?" Lucy asked, her voice soft with sympathy.
Wendy nodded, and Lucy pulled her into a tight hug.
"Lucy, I'm sorry. I didn't think this would happen. Please don't tell Natsu."
Lucy sighed and pulled away from Wendy. "Wendy, I'm not gonna say I'm proud of you or that I'm happy, but I won't tell Natsu."
Wendy sighed, wiping a few tears away. "Thank you, Lucy."
Lucy didn't know how to feel; Wendy was like a sister to her and her heart went out to her. "Don't thank me yet. While I'm not going to tell him, it doesn't mean he isn't going to find out. You're going to have to tell him yourself."
Wendy gulped and looked at Lucy nervously. "I'm also assuming you haven't told Romeo yet, right?"
Wendy shook her head, and Lucy frowned. "Well, you're going to have to tell them both, and the sooner, the better."
Wendy started to tear up again as she spoke, "But I'm scared, Lucy. W-we only d-did it once, and w-we didn't p-pl-an for this to happen. I can't take c-care of a-a baby. Plus, what is Romeo gonna say? He m-might l-leave me and Natsu… he is gonna b-be so a-angry. He is going t-to hate me. Everyone will. I m-messed up even though we used protection."
Lucy pulled Wendy into a hug and held her as she cried. She let her express all her feelings. Soon, Wendy was just crying. Lucy patted her back, soothingly repeating, "It's going to be okay, Wendy."
After a while, Wendy started to calm down. When she was completely calm, Lucy said, "Wendy, I'm not going to lecture you. You'll get enough of that from Natsu, but I will say I'm unhappy about your decision. You knew the risks, and now you will face the consequences. It only takes one time, protection or not. That said, I will support you, and when his anger fades, so will Natsu, no matter what you decide. He's not going to hate you. Natsu will always love you no matter what you do, and so will I. Natsu loves you, and he only wants what's best for you. Now, about Romeo, you know he is not the kind of guy to just leave you. I can see it; he looks at you the way Natsu looks at me. I don't know how he will react, but I'm almost positive he will support you. He loves you."
Wendy nodded, knowing Lucy was right.
"Now, come on, let's go in the kitchen and see if I have something to help with the morning sickness," said Lucy, helping Wendy up.
"There is stuff that will help?" exclaimed Wendy.
"Yeah, lemon juice will help," said Lucy.
Wendy smiled, hoping what she said was true as she followed Lucy. Will everything be okay?
