Forced to Be Without You

Retrieval

Lucy P.O.V

I watched through the window as I sat outside waiting for Natsu, Melody and her mom to leave. I was so disappointed she was leaving them there all alone. She'd make a horrible mother. But I guess that makes my job easier, I won't have to deal with anyone.

Natsu took a glance toward the window I was by and gave a subtle wink. I smiled, beginning to get more excited to get my babies.

Natsu followed the ladies out the front door and soon enough they were gone. It was finally time for me to get my babies back.

I opened the back door and cautiously walked in. Even though people weren't here anymore, I was still worried something would happen.

Tiptoeing through the house, I found the room where my babies layed peacefully sleeping. My heart sped up. I had been so long since I had seen my babies.

I quietly walked over and picked them both up. My babies in my arms again, I could have cried. Their soft, gentle skin pressed against mine. I was so over joyed I did begin to cry. My babies could finally be home again.

"Who are you!!!??" I heard a scream from behind me. I panicked putting my babies down back into their cribs. I turned around to see some red haired chick staring at me in utter fear and confusion.

"If you don't tell me who you are right this instant I- I will call the police!" She yelled.

"Wait wait. Please just listen to me before you call anyone." I tried reasoning with her.

"You have 30 seconds!"

"I know this probably sounds crazy, but these are my babies. They were kidnapped from my home in Magnolia a week ago. Melody kidnapped them and then sent a letter to my fiancé threatening him to come here so she could falsely be with him. If he hasn't came she would have killed my babies." I explained.

"No... No... You're lying! Why would Melody do such a thing?" The girl said in denial.

"Please you have to believe me. She isn't right in her mind, she has an unsafe attraction to Natsu Dragneel, my fiancé. She has tried to kill me before, she's tried to sabotage my marriage more than once, she's kidnapped my babies and pretended they were hers. I believe she needs actual help." She grew quiet, processing everything I had told her.

"I figured something was fishy about all of this... I'm Melody's older sister, Monica. Melody tells me everything... But when she just randomly showed up with two babies, something was just so off about it. I'm so sorry..." Monica's facial expression turned sad.
"Hey hey, don't worry. It'll all be fine once I get my babies back safely. Help me, please?" I pleaded. She looked questioningly at me as if trying to decide whether to break her sisters trust or help me.

"Okay. I'll help you, but we need to be fast. Dinners never last long with Melody." She said rushing over to me. My smile beamed and we grabbed the babies and their things and tried hurrying down the stairs.

Suddenly, I heard keys being pressed into the lock. My heart dropped. "Oh no..." I said under my breath.

"Melody come on, we weren't even gone long let's go do something else!" I heard Natsu trying to stall outside of the door. I looked over to Monica and she seemed as panicked as I was.

"What do we do???" I whisper yelled. Monica didn't seem to know what to do either. But then we didn't have enough time.

"I have a bad-" Melody paused as she saw her sister and I holding the babies. "Feeling"

"Lucy!" Natsu exclaimed. I looked to him worriedly.

"Lucy?! Monica." She said with a stern tone. "What do you think you're doing! Trying to let her steal my babies!"

"Melody these aren't your babies! You need help! Natsu isn't yours either!" Monica yelled back, unfortunately waking the babies in the process. Both the twins began to cry.

"Those are my babies! Natsu is mine! Why would you believe this chick over your own sister, I'm hurt." Melody pretended.

"Natsu?" Monica asked. Melody looked at Natsu with the glare of one thousand knives. But he was stronger than that.

"Those babies are mine and Lucy's. I am marrying Lucy Heartfilia on November 23. I am in love with Lucy." Natsu said proudly, my heart fluttered.

"No!!!!!" Melody sent out a high pitched screech.

Natsu ran over to Monica and grabbed Michiko from her hands. "Thank you so much for helping." I told her. Melody tried running at me but Monica tackled her to the ground and kept her from doing anything.

"Thank you again." I told her as Natsu and I got out of the door. Melody screamed and squirmed under Monica, we got out of there as soon as possible.

We quickly, but cautiously, got to the train station. We got out our tickets and waited for the train to arrive. I hugged Natsu so happily. "We did it Natsu, we finally got our babies back." I smiled.

"Now let's go home, and be happy again. Sound like a good plan?" Natsu smiled. I nodded my head happily.

The train soon arrived and we were on our way back home. Finally, this could all be over. We could go home and everything could be okay again.

Hopefully Monica takes my warning and puts Melody in a mental institution.

Melody P.O.V

"GET OFF OF ME, YOU TRAITOR!" I screamed at my sister. I struggled underneath her arms as she tried hard to keep me down.

"Melody, you need help!" She yelled back at me.

"No. I. Don't." Suddenly one of my arms became loose and struck her on her face. She fell back letting me go.

"Sorry Monica." I said emotionlessly, "I don't need help. I just need daddy." I smiled viciously.

"Melody... No.." She tried, holding her face. She soon passed out and I was left to my phone. I dialed my father's number and smiled happily.

"Hello? Daddy? Its me, Melody. I need you to do me a favor." I said sweetly. Lucy and Natsu will regret doing this for the rest of their lives.

Heyyy. Hope you enjoyed. Sorry it took longer than expected. School takes up most my time :D

I might be in the up coming musical at my school guys! Crazy for me because I'm extttreemley awkward and stuff. Wish me luck for the auditions this week.

Anyways, I hope this will suffice for now. Hopefully I can get more time to update. I will try.

I love you all and I hope you have a great day. See you next chapter, byyeee.
