Not so different anymore(book 2 of the 'different' series)

Mine

-Lucy's pov-

"Let her go!"

Rouge and I jerk our head to see the person who screamed. Rouge lets go as they come and stand in front of me. "Lucy is my brother's and my brother's only!" Wendy shouts at him, furious. "Wendy..." Rouge looks back from me to her. "Please, Lucy." He starts walking away. Wendy's still growling. "Wendy, it's fine." She turns to look at me, "No it's not! He's hitting on you! I'm telling Natsu!" I desperately shake my head no, "No, please!" She gives me a questioning look, an eyebrow raised, "Why?"

"'Cause that would make unnecessary fights and drama." She pouts, crossing her arms over her chest. "Fine... I won't tell Natsu..." I smile and give her a thank you hug. "Thank you, Wendy!" Wendy warms up to my hug. I can feel her smiling, "You're welcome. Now, you should go home before he comes back. I have to go before Natsu realizes that I'm gone." I gasp, "Natsu doesn't know you're gone!?" She nods, "I felt something in my gut, so I followed you. He and Romeo started talking again so I took that as my chance." She grins triumphantly. "Ok, bye Wendy."

"Bye, Lucy!" I fast walk back to my house. I can feel it in the pit of my stomach. Natsu is still going to find out. And it's going to be hell.

-Wendy's pov-  

I quickly start walking back, but I hear someone shout, "Wendy!!" I turn my head to the side to see Natsu and Romeo. "Oh, hey guys." Both quickly run over to me, painting, "Where the hell did you go!?" Natsu yells at me, still painting. "Just wanted to walk around, gosh. And don't say profanity in front of me, it's bad." Natsu grunts, "Fine."

"Oh, Natsu, I need to tell you something..." I trail off, feeling the guilt of lying to Lucy in the pit of my stomach. "Uh, sure." Romeo kisses me on the cheek before going his own way back home. Natsu smacks his head, "Don't do that." Romeo rubs the back of his head, "Aye.."

"Bye Romeo!" I wave at him, smiling. "Let's go home." Natsu says, starting to walk. I jog to catch up with his long strides. "Why you gotta be so tall?" He chuckles, "I'm not tall, you're just short." I pout at him. I feel myself lifting off the ground; I scream. I'm soon on Natsu's shoulders. "Better?" I hold onto his hair making him flinch. "Better."

"Now, what did you want to tell me?" I stay quiet, still debating whether I should tell him or not. "Well?"

"Uh, don't tell Lucy I told you this, but... Um... Eto... Rouge's into her." He stops; I almost fall over. I grab onto to him tightly, yelping, "Natsu!" He chuckles, "Nice try, Wendy." I gasp. "Why would I lie!? I'm telling the truth!" He stays still. He puts me down, gently. "Natsu?" His bangs cover his eyes as tick marks pop up. "That fucking bitch." He start walking back. I try to pull him back, but he's strong, "Natsu please don't do anything! Lucy doesn't know I told you! She would kill me if she found out!" He stops. I let go of his leg and stand up. "Fine..." The rest of the walk was silent. Awkward silence. Once we get home, Natsu walks up to his room ignoring my mom saying, "Hey, Natsu." She looks up the stairs as the door slams shut. "What's up with him?" I sigh, "Stuff."

"I bet it was that Lucy girl." My dad says, coming from his office. "Igneel!" My mom scolds. "I told you to stop acting like a child." I sit down on the couch Turing on the TV. "Wendy, can you get Natsu for me?" I take a deep breath, "NATSU!! MOM WANTS YOU!"

"I'LL BE DOWN IN A MINUTE!" He responds back. "I said get him, not shout for him." I hear his steps down the stairs. "What, mom?" My mom finishes cutting up what she was cutting and turns to Natsu. "Why'd you slam the door?"

"No reason." My dad scoffs, "Yeah right." My mom walks up to Natsu. "Tell me." Natsu rolls his eyes, "Nothing important." My mom looks at him sternly, "Natsu." She holds out the 'U'. "Whaaaaaat?" He responds back. I look back and forth from the TV to the scene in front of me. TV or Natsu getting mad? "Natsu I'm being serious, tell me." Natsu groans, "I just got mad... Nothing more." My dad smacks the back of his head. "Of course you were mad, but why?" Natsu rubs his head. "You just asked why I slammed the door. And stop pestering me about this," With that Natsu walks up the stairs, ignoring my mom shouting his name. She sighs before sitting down, "Wendy, don't be a teenager."

"But mom, I'm 13." She frowns, "I know... Then don't grow anymore." I giggle, "I wish, mom."

-Natsu's pov-

I slam my door shut. Happy jumps at the noise. The words play over and over again in my mind. Rouge's into her. I sit down on my bed; Happy sits on my lap. He pushes up against me, wanting me to pet him. I pat his head. Rouge likes Lucy. I clench my teeth at the thought of Rouge making a move on Lucy. I put Happy on the floor and walk out of my room. I pass my parents, ignoring their questions. I go out the door and start walking. I'm going to find his house and fucking kill him. Wendy comes out shouting my name, "Natsu! Where are you going!?"

"I'm going to find Rouge's sorry ass and beat the living shit outta him!" I shout back, still walking. Wendy runs to me. She grabs my arm trying to stop me, "Natsu, please! Lucy will never trust me!" I continue to walk. "I don't care." Wendy stops pulling on my arm. I look back to see her, her bottom lip is quivering. "Please, Natsu!" I shake my head no, "I'm not changing my mind. He needs to know to back off." I continue walking. "Do you even know where he lives!?"

"No, but I'll figure it out." Wendy runs to meet my pace. "I guess I'll help." She says, trying to copy my long strides. "Whoever said I wanted your help?"

"Natsu we both know that I know thing that you don't know." I look at her, "Yeah? Like what?" She looks up and smiles, "I know where Yukino lives. Yukino knows where Rouge lives." I raise a brow, "How do you know that? Plus, I was planning on just asking Sting or something." Wendy laughs, "Yukino told me just in case I ever wanted to visit. And, do you think that just walking to Lucy's house and asking where he lives is a good idea?" She giggles after. "What's so bad about it?" She jumps in front of me making me stop. "Lucy's there. If she sees you all mad she'll definitely get mad at me, and she'll get mad at you for wanting to 'kick his ass'." She does quotation marks with her hands.

"Fine, fine. Where do we go?"

"Uhh... You got your phone on ya?" I take my phone out and give it to her. "... Ok... This way!" I follow her as she skips happily, my phone in her hand. "Don't drop my phone." She nods, "M'kay!" She hums a small melody, "hmm hm hm hmm hmmm."

"Shut up."

"No." She continues to hum. Humming louder to get on my nerves. "Didn't you want me stop? Why're you helping me?" She stops, "'Cause I feel like it. We need to take the bus." We keep walking until we reach a bus stop. "Natsu, what are you going to do exactly?"

"Simple, beat the shit outta him, and go back home." I crack my knuckles as Wendy rolls her eyes. "So specific, Natsu." The bus comes and we get in.

-When they get there-
-Natsu's pov-

"Let's do this." I'm about to slam on the door, but Wendy stops me. She knocks politely on the door. "Coming!" Is heard from inside the house. Footsteps come closer to the door, and the lock is opened with a click. "Oh, Hey, Wendy, Nat--" I push Kagura out of the way and look around. "Natsu, don't be so rude! I'm sorry, Kagura."

"It's fine. Anyway, what do you need?"

"Where the hell is Rouge?"

"Me?" I turn to see Rouge. He quickly realizes why I'm here. "I'm not going to fight you." Kagura looks at us, confused. "That's fine, but I'm still gonna beat you up."

"What's going on?" Wendy makes Kagura sit down. "Let him take his course. He's like a natural disaster. A wild fire." I glare at Wendy, "Shut up."

"Do you mind leaving? I don't have time for this." I throw my fist to his face, "Then I'll make time," I grab him by his collar, "for you to know that Lucy is mine."

I am so sorry. I can't believe I keep updating so late >.> it's just my stress level went from 0 to 100,000,000 in 5 minutes on Monday. The day I was planning on updating. With the said stress, I didn't really have any inspiration to write. With finals still showing up, I'm honestly scared that I won't have time to write or edit. :( I'm really sorry
