The Key To My Heart

Hidden feelings

Levy Pov

Its been three days since the maids have kept themselves busy cleaning the castle. Three say since Lucy has left her room, three says since I been down to check on Natsu. Three day since everyone has been itching to leave this nightmare and go back to how things use to be like. Everyday Erza would make Natsu meal and give the tray only to Gajeel, making sure no one would poison the dish. Since Natsu refused any other dish if it was not from us. Only Gajeel has seen Natsu and everyday Natsu would ask the same thing, "How is she?" and everyday Gajeel would put on a fake smile and say "She just fine" making Natsu smile and eat. That is what Gajeel told us, but we all knew she was beyond fine. Me, her best friend who must watch from afar as she gives herself the worst punishment. No one has enter her room in three days. The maid just knock softly on her door three times a day leaving a tray of food at her door but not a grain of rice is lifted from the plate. There not much I can do her wedding is only a week away, and I seen many times I seen Sting Knock on her door, his face sad when she wouldn't answer him . I felt sorry for the young prince but he couldn't bring happiness to my dear friend so he is no use to us. The only man who can please the girl behind this door is locked up in a dark cell on his own. I walked by the door I seen many times growing up, and everyday I would have the feeling I was welcomed but today it seemed like a death zone.

It was on the second day when I laid in Gajeel arms that I couldn't bare the thought any more. My eyes wide as I stare at the ceiling, I needed to see her, I need to know if she was okay. I slept out of Gajeel arms and made my way to the draw grabbed the spare key I have of her room and made my way down the hall. The night was quiet, except for my feet that would the wooden floor. I let the little of light that beam threw the window to guide me. Until I reached her room. The door was locked which was no surprise. I slide in the key and hear a click before entering. The room seemed neat till I see the disaster of her bed. The sheets laid everywhere, her pillows where no longer on the bed but on the floor where their laid Happy the cat didn't leave her side. But what has he been eating and then I notice the berries at the window and Happy's hand cover in blue and red. I stepped over him to catch a glance at the person I care for the most, Lucy.

Her face seemed fine until the moon light finally hit it. I could see the dark circles under her eyes, her face pale and dry tear stained her cheek. I can see her cheek bones more the before, her face was thin showing that she really hasn't eaten. The room smelled of sweat showing she hasn't shower in the past few days. I see her lips tremble in her sleep as she repeated the name of her love. "Natsu, Nastu please come back" I see a single tear fall from her closed eyes and it hurt me deeply. I couldn't bare it any more and left the room. I held back the tear, I grabbed the key and ran to my room. Entering the dark room, I felt my lips trembled and my heart ache. A sob fell from my mouth as I feel to the floor only to be caught by a pair of strong arms. "Levy" I hear him whisper to me, "She broken. So, so broken." I let soft sob come from my mouth each getting louder as we sat there. I felt him rock me back and forth trying to make me stop but I couldn't. I slept that night with tears in my eyes.

The next day I couldn't bare being near anyone and cleaned the library from head to toe. Today is the third day. Everyone is depressed the maids, the castle the world in general. The image of a sad Lucy still printed in my mind. Well of course since I just saw her yesterday. I stare at my clean Library, there was nothing left to clean. I took out and placed back all the books. Cleaned the shelves off once, twice and even three times. It was amazing how I could clean the large library in such short time but what else was there for me to do. Gajeel was off guarding Natsu cell. Erza was busy preparing meals to please the king. Meals that would be served at the wedding, the maids cleaned in placed you wouldn't even think off. Again the designer were here and planing the wedding. I couldn't stand it any more and made my way to the kitchen where I fine a lovely red head, smiling at a blue head, tattooed eyes man. Who ate happily, at what was in front of him and I couldn't help but smile at them.

Just when I was about to leave, I see Erza turn to my direction giving a smile before gesturing her hand for me to come in but before I could shake my head no she looked at the blue head man and said something to him making him leave. I walk into the kitchen and quickly say, "You didn't have to make him leave, I was just going to get a piece of cake or something." I lied to her, making Erza smile at me. "Its okay Levy, Gajeel told me everything" She says with a small smile. I look at her with sadness in my eyes. "Erza, she looks so horrible" I say with my lips trembling as I flung myself in Erza arms. I feel her arms tighten around my small figure before letting me go again. "Look Levy she my friend too, I care for her well being but we can't do nothing if she doesn't let us in." She says her eyes glazed with unshed tears. "But Erza you didn't see what I saw. I didn't see our friend any more, this isn't her." I say with my eyes full of tears but before Erza can say anything more, the kitchen door busted open.

There with heavy pants stood Virgo her chains clinking against each other, staring at both of us wide eye. "She finally left her room and is sitting in her chair beside her father" Virgo said to both of us. Making me and Erza run down the hall room and busted threw the thrown room. Only to see something we haven't seen in a long time. Lucy, she stood there sitting beside Sting a smile plastered on her face, "Hello guys, Erza, Levy it's good see you guys again." Her face didn't look tired and there was no sign sadness on her face but her eyes told something else. "Lucy?"
