Stay With Me

Chapter 6

Lucy was more confused than she thinks she's ever been. Why did that guy want her to leave? And if she told anyone... He would kill everyone in her guild?

Everything was a mess. First Natsu, then the baby, and now her and her friends are being threatened. She didn't know what to do anymore, she headed straight back to her apartment after the visit from that man yesterday.

Lucy sat at her table, more stressed out than ever, and then, "Hello again, Lucy." She heard. She looked around the room but it was still empty.

"Who are you? Where are you? And how do you know my name?" Lucy said ready with her whip and a hand secured on her keys, ready to attack when this bastard showed himself.

"Well, you don't need to know who I am-" He started before Lucy shot back.

"Like hell I do!" She yelled.

Lucy heard the man clear his throat, "The answer to your second question? Well, I can tell you that your magic won't be needed, because Im not actually here. Im using telepathy." He said in a bored tone.

'Telepathy?' Lucy thought. Lucy was less tense, but she still kept her guard up. She didn't know who the hell this guy was and what he was planning.

"And," She heard him continue, "I know a lot about you Lucy." Lucy grew nervous. "I know that you love to read, you're even writing your own novels. I also know that you're a celestial spirit mage, Who doesn't know that though? And," He said, "I know your best friend's name is Natsu Dragneel. He's the father of your unborn child as well, isn't he?" Lucy getting irritated by this guy. Who did he think he was? "It's a shame that he forgot. And it would break his heart if you told him and then left." Lucy was beyond angry now, she could practically hear the smerk in his voice. "But it would hurt him just as bad if you didn't tell him but left anyway-"

"SHUT UP!" Lucy screamed.

"Oh-ho? But it's only the truth." He said with interest heard in his voice.

"What makes you think," Lucy said through her teeth, "That I'm going to leave?!"

The man started chuckling and he was getting on Lucy's last nerve. "For the sake of your friends lives of cours!" He exclaimed loudly.

"They won't let that happen!" Lucy said.

"Perhaps I wasn't clear last night, let me explain," He said, "I'm watching your every move. If you try to tell anyone your leaving, you don't leave, or you mention me, I'll kill them all." He said very scarily.

"How can you kill an entire guild? Especially one like Fairy Tail!" Lucy yelled.

"Oh, well I won't kill them directly." He said, confusing Lucy.

"What are you talking about?" She asked.

The man chuckled once again, "I have my ways." He said. "You've been warned, Lucy Heartfilia! After today, you have two more days to say your secret farewell!" And with that the man was gone.

Lucy was left shocked once more. But she couldn't take any chances with this guy. She only had two more days after today to spend time with everyone she loves. She sure as hell didn't want her friends to die, even if it hurt them when she left.

As Lucy enered the guild, she took evrything in. The loud noise of everyone and all the people mingling and arguing.

"Yo Lucy!" She heard. She didn't even have to look at him to know it was Natsu. "C'mon Luce, go on a mission with us!" He pleaded, suddenly begging.

Lucy couldn't help but smile, "Yeah, we can go with the whole team today!" She exclaimed.

"But Lucy~" Natsu whined, then he realized she said yes to his question. "WOO HOO!" He yelled. "Gray! Erza! Lucy wants to go on a job! C'mon!" He yelled running in their direction. Natsu ran into Gray before he was able to stop, causing yet another fight between them.

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR ASH FOR BRAINS?!" Gray yelled.

"IT WASN'T MY FAULT! YOU WERE IN MY WAY!"

"NO! YOU JUST NEED TO WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING!"

"WHAT WAS THAT ICE PRINCESS?!"

"YOU WANNA FIGHT?!"

"BITE ME!"

As Lucy watched them, she knew this was something she was going to miss.
