Loveless Wedding(Nalu)

Epilogue

Hey guys,

This is the final epilogue and the last thing I'm uploading to this book so I made sure it was extra long (verry long). Sorry for late and delayed chapter for like months ?. Please check out my other book as I plan to update them real soon. Thanks again.

Four years later...

Natsu had just about had it with them. His mother couldn't figure out how to switch from front facing to the main camera on her phone, his mother-in-law found the auditorium too hot while his father found it too cold. He thought before he lost it, he'd get away from them, so he excused himself saying he wanted to go closer to the stage to take pictures. His parents and in-laws were becoming more and more like children with each day.

"Please sir, take your seat," a young girl stopped him as he made his way towards the stage.

"I beg you, have mercy and don't send me back to sit with them," he pleaded with the young girl.

"Fine," she sighed, as they both could hear his father-in-law complaining about how bad their seats were loudly, "but you still need to take a seat. There's an empty one right over there you can sit there."

"Thank you, you're a life saver," Natsu said, just as the event began, and the curtains went up. The Dean of the university started off the event with a very lengthy speech. Natsu fiddled nervously, wishing he could text Lucy, but knowing her, she probably stashed it away in her purse or somewhere else. In today's day and age, she was the only one who had difficulty keeping her phone with her; it would be either in another room or neatly placed in her purse, never in her hand.

After the Dean's speech, they started calling on the graduates one by one. Natsu tried to spot Lucy, she was probably near the front of the line since they were calling people alphabetically.

Lucy was graduating today, and Natsu couldn't be more proud of her, especially with all she had to overcome this past year. He had one brave wife, he thought to himself. After a few minutes, which felt like hours to Natsu, they called Lucy's name.

"Miss Lucy Dragneel," the announcer said, and soon she emerged in her graduation gown which clearly showed her eight-month baby bump.

"That's my princess!" Shouted Jude followed by a few whistles. Natsu almost forgot about the camera in his hand, watching her in awe before realizing it and taking pictures in a frenzy not wanting to miss capturing this moment.

Lucy took her degree from the Dean before shaking his hand, and then instead of walking off the stage, she went up to the announcer whispering something in his ear.

"Oh, I'm so very sorry," he apologized. "It's actually Mrs. Lucy Dragneel. Please give her a round of applause."

The auditorium erupted in applause, accompanied by shouts and whistles coming exclusively from his father and father-in-law.

After that, the graduating students took some group photos, ending the ceremony with the traditional throwing of the caps.

"I did it!" Lucy jumped up and down once she reached Natsu.

"I know! I know! Calm down, honey," he told her. "All this jumping can't be good for the baby."

"It jumps up and down inside of me all the time," laughed Lucy. "It's time he got a taste of his own medicine."

"she," Natsu corrected, "and you can't talk about my princess that way."

"Firstly, he or she, that's up for discussion," she said, entwining her arms around his neck. "Second, I'm the one who endured morning sickness, blowing up into a cow, and will be facing labor pains soon too, so I can talk to the baby however I want to."
