...

You stare at Natsu frustratedly. "Why...?"

He stares back at you, an expression you had never seen on his face before. "You're doubting me again?"

"When things like this happen- there's no doubt I would!" You shot back at him, leaning against the kitchen counter, your arms folded across your chest.

"Oh, so you're saying this isn't the first time!" He angrily pointed out.

"No! Would you stop reading between the lines for one second!" You practically spit the words at him.

"So that's what I'm doing? I'm reading between the lines?"

You didn't bother speaking to him anymore. Your mouth was set in a thin, straight line.

"So now you're mad. Great. Fantastic!" He yelled, as he threw his hands up in the air.

Frustratedly, he raked a hand through his hair. "What do you want from me?!"

'Shut the lips, (Y/N). Lucas is still at home! Your 5-year old is still home! Sh-'

"Maybe a little honesty and truth would be nice!" You said finally, your voice slightly breaking.

'But I don't want to stop.'

He stared at you. "Oh. That's what this is about. It's Lucy!"

'I just want...to know the truth.'

You looked away,and ignored his words. "What am I talking about. It's always about Lucy!" Natsu's icy voice rang in your ears.

'Tell me the truth!'

"Then explain! Why were you out whispering with Lucy a few months ago. Why did she kiss you a few months ago?! And yet...why am I arguing with you now!"

He looked as if he wanted to roll his eyes. "For fuck's sake, (Y/N)!"

You glare at him. "What? What is it?"

There was a nasty side of you today. You could feel the strange coldness settling in your mind.

'Why? Why do I feel like this?'

He didn't speak, just shut his mouth, looking frustrated.

'No...(Y/N)...look at what you've done to him. It's time to stop. Take a break-'

"Is there something wrong? Do you feel no guilt at all?!" You cry towards him, your hands balled up in fists.

He looked at you.

'Don't look at me like that. Please...I'll only hurt you more.'

"I'm done." You straighten up. "Just leave."

"What?"

"Just leave for a couple hours."

"Women." Natsu muttered, grabbing the apartment key and leaving the room, the door slammed behind him.

You winced as the loud sound echoed throughout the room.

'What's wrong with me?'
