Kidnapped

Chapter 27 - Angel

Warning: Swearing

As Sting pulled up in the empty secluded street, he realised that there was no Natsu lying on the ground, but instead there was a pink bear which read;

'The mean guys never win,  loser. I won't let you kill him.'

He squeezed the bear, as if trying to kill the already lifeless creature before throwing it away  in a puddle of mud along with the note tied to it.

"Damn it Dragneel ! And damn whoever saved you ! You won't be so lucky next time, that's for sure." He said through clenched teeth. One thing was for sure, Sting meant every word that he said. His eyes were full of hatred and determination to wipe Dragneel off planet earth.

'But who is the mysterious person that rescued him ?' He thought to himself. 'Whoever it is, I'll find out and they'll be going down with him too.'

~Lucy POV~

As soon as I heard the car pull up, I gathered all my strength to drag Natsu out of there and lift him into my car.

It took a lot of determination as Natsu isn't fat but he's very muscly which meant that he was quite heavy.

I placed him gently in the passenger seat beside me and strapped him in before pulling out a pink teddy bear and scribbling a quick note on it.

Satisfied with the note, I tied it to the bear and placed it where Natsu was previously lying. I heard the car getting closer so I sprinted back to my own vehicle and began to drive away with Natsu passed out beside me.

It felt strange to have him near me again. Although it felt strange I couldn't help but be overwhelmed by his presence. My heart was beating frantically against me rib cage as if it were a caged bird trying to escape.

Once we stopped at a red light I couldn't help but stare at his perfect features. His lips pink lips were slightly parted, his head tilted to the side with some loose strands of his cherry blossom hair caressing his forehead. His perfectly tanned skin...

*HONK*

The car behind me began honking and I looked up at the light and realised it was green.

"Ugh, annoying impatient asshole." I muttered under my breathe at the driver behind me. Why was he in such a rush to leave anyway.

I looked in the rear mirror and noticed the enraged driver glaring at me. I couldn't help but think that he looked very familiar, as if I've seen him before....wait a minute..I have seen him before...it's Rogue !

I quickly sped down the streets as he followed closely behind. It wasn't long before he noticed Natsu next to me. As soon as he spotted him he immediately tried to make me crash my car.

I kept tried to drive into streets instead of the main road so maybe I could lose him but he kept popping out of nowhere. I couldn't lead him to Natsu's house but I couldn't lead him to Erza's either.

I had to act fast. My eyes widened when I saw a pair of headlights approaching me at a high speed. Whoever was driving that car was determined to kill us. I squeezed my eyes shut and swerved the car away. When I opened my eyes I realised that I had luckily moved away in time and that the car heading towards me crashed into Rogue's car instead.

I breathed a sigh of relief and drove Natsu to his house. Once I got there I remembered that I didn't have any keys. I rummaged through Natsu's pockets, in attempt to find the keys. As I was looking, I pulled out a photograph from his pocket. I flipped it over and felt my eyes begin to water as I realised that this was the first picture me and Natsu took together on our very first date. He kept it for all this time...

"Natsu...." I smiled as I hugged the photograph. I wiped away a tear and unstrapped Natsu from his seat before dragging him inside. When I opened the front, I couldn't believe at what state the house was in. It stank of alcohol and mould...I carried Natsu to his room, trying to avoid the obstacles along the way.

Once I arrived I noticed that one side of the bed hadn't been touched at all. My side. I gently placed Natsu onto his side of the bed and sat next to him. I hesitated a bit before gently caressing his cheek. I whisked the stray hairs away from his forehead and gently played with his loose strands of hair. I missed him so much.

Since Natsu probably wasn't going to wake up until tomorrow morning, I decided to make the most of the time by cleaning his whole house. I began to clean downstairs first and then moved to the upstairs part. Once I got to Flare's room I noticed there was a gunshot in the wall.

Did Natsu kill Flare ?! Wait...theres no blood so that's not possible...

I didn't bother cleaning this room as Pest control needed to clean it to get rid of the bitch trails left in here. I didn't want to get contaminated by it.

After several hours I managed to clean everything. I looked at my watch and realised it was 2:30am ! I quickly made my way to Natsu's room to get my bag. Once I opened the door, I noticed that he still hadn't woken up or changed position from how I left him. I walked over to him and bent down so I was close to his face.

"Natsu...you need to stop doing this to yourself...because I...I..I really care about you Natsu...goodbye..." I whispered to him. I was about to stand up when my eyes couldn't stop staring at his lips. Before I could register my actions, I began to lean in. I closed my eyes as my lips made contact with his. I missed the feel of his lips on mine, the feeling of electricity whenever I kissed him.

I opened my eyes and felt him stir. I blushed and quickly grabbed my bag and ran out the door. I quickly hopped into the car and drove off.

I couldn't help but have a smile form on my face, recalling the kiss with Natsu. Happy memories began to fill my head as I drove back home.

I arrived at home and for some strange reason the lights were on.
I walked inside and noticed Erza sitting down on the sofa frowning.

"Lucy, can you explain this to me ?" She shouted as she held out a photo of me driving her car on the wrong side of the road.

"L-look Erza I-I can explain !" I gulped. Erza looked scary and beyond pissed.

"Well, start by telling me where you were at 3am in the morning and why you smell of alcohol. Go on, I'm listening." She said folding her arms over her chest.

"Ok, it's a really long story but, here goes...."

~Natsu POV~

I was having a nightmare I couldn't get out of. My parents were there and my little sister, Wendy.

I dreamt that they were getting murdered in front of me. I couldn't help but let out a scream. I fell to my knees...no one was here and I couldn't wake up from this nightmare. I was surrounded by darkness when I heard someone whisper some words to me.

"I really care about you...." My heart began to race.

"Who is this ?!" I shouted as colour began to return to my world. I made out my bedroom through my half open eyes but I still couldn't feel my body.

My question was answered by a pair of lips softly on mine. I stirred as I began to feel my body breaking out of the numbness but by the time I opened my eyes, the person was gone. 

All they left behind was a photo, the photo I carried with me everywhere.

"Lucy...."
