Don't Question Our Fate

No pressure, just romance

"A date" Lucy questions, wondering if he truly knows what he's saying.

"Yes, you know, we choose a day for the two of us and we have fun. Like when we took Nashi fishing but the two of us." He said grinning

Before Lucy could answer happy came flying in "ooohh I smell breakfast..." happy trails off as he realizes it's all been eaten "you guys ate without me. And to think I gave you two the night alone." Happy pouted landing on the coffee table in front of them.

"Oh sorry buddy I felt like we haven't eaten in days." Natsu chuckles

"I'm sure Mira will make you something at the guild" Lucy reassures

Happy ears perk at the idea "I guess she's fine to, but she better have fish!"

They all laugh and make their way to the guild. Most of the walk happy asked all types of questions about their kids and what happened. They tried to say all the happy things and Lucy had to cover natsu's mouth for the personal details he was trying to share.

Finally they arrive to the guild and happy speeds over to Mira for breakfast "they ate my breakfast Mira please save me!" Happy begs

Lucy laughs at his acting, when Erza grabs her from behind with a strong hug "E-Erza I c-can't breathhhhh." She says losing air

Putting her down "I'm sorry Lucy I was worried, we really thought you died. Then on top of that you left so suddenly we couldn't express anything!" She said sternly

"Ok well by your expression I see you missed me but I feel a hint of hostility so why don't we talk over a drink with Cana." Lucy says sheepishly

"That's a wonderful idea!!" She said hitting my back really hard.

Lucy's pov
As Erza drags me away I glance over at natsu as he simply watches me with a smirk. I could tell he wanted me to get back into the grove of things since our deep conversation.

I can't help but not feel good enough. Although with the guild I feel stronger. Sitting in the chair next to Cana she wraps her arms around me sobbing on cue. She reeks of liquor.

"Oh Lucy I'm so happy you came back!! Y-your like the b-bestist person. You can't l-leave." She stuttered out.

"Yes yes I know" I said patting her back and sitting her up.

Erza, Cana, Mira explained to me how they saw me die " I really am sorry guys but I got stuck in a time loop and luckily natsua got sucked in with me." I explained

Levy came from behind me "actually Lu-Chan natsu wasn't taken into the time loop until like an hour later."

Shocked by her statement, Cana furthers "you should have seen natsu. I've never seen him cry so painfully."

Erza hugs herself and pouts lightly. Yeah She's definitely drunk "I'm sure it wasn't that bad. We didn't really get that close until we made it out of the loop."

"No Lucy he looked as if he lost his whole soul, he refused to leave your side and did not believe anyone that you had no pulse." Mira stated sadly "you could tell he blamed himself for pushing you to do the magic."

I try to hold back my tears but a single tear escapes onto my cheek. I quickly wipe it before they see and I smile. I can feel this small spark of warmth in my heart from all the doubt I put towards his love. I guess I assumed he was only in love with the thought of the future me and of course our kids. It's just really hard to believe he loved me before all of this mess. Not that im not guilty of it. I didn't realize I like him until this too. Geez i am such a crybaby hypocrite.
