Love returns
Lucy couldn't believe her eyes. There stood Natsu, her boyfriend, in front of her. He was fully healed, his Fairy Tail mark was back, no cuts on his left arm, no x-shaped scar on his chest, and no bloody hair. She reached for his face, cupping his cheeks gently, making sure he was real. After a while Lucy hugs him tight, to which the fire mage happily returns. They stayed in that position for a while until Lucy broke the silence.
"P-P-Please tell me t-t-t-this is real, that this i-i-i-isn't another d-d-dream..." Lucy pleaded while stammering. Natsu smiled guiltily and started stroking Lucy's hair, comforting her, letting her know that he is real and that he's back. He then breaks the hug and cups Lucy's cheeks gently, making her look at him.
"This is real Lucy. I'm back and this time for good. I will never leave you again and that's a promise I intend to keep." Natsu said while smiling at her. Lucy couldn't hold her tears back and decided to let it all out. Lucy cried into his chest and as she cried her heart out, Natsu heard her muble something that he couldn't quite make out.
"What was that?" He asked with tears begging to escape but kept them locked away.
"I said," Lucy looked into his onyx eyes before continuing. "Don't you ever do something that crazy ever again!"
"Lucy I-"
"PROMISE ME!" She hugged the fire mage tight, not wanting to let go.
"I promise you." He said while hugging Lucy as tightly as she was. "I-I-I-I thought I w-w-w-was never going t-t-t-to s-see you again. I thought I lost t-t-the love of my life. I'm sorry Natsu! I'm sorry for forgetting you. I'm sorry for almost loving someone else! I'm sor-" She couldn't finish, his lips were gently pressing against hers so she couldn't help but kiss him back. Lucy felt pure happiness flow inside her heart while kissing her loved one after three long painful years of mourning and depression. He broke the kiss after a while.
"Lucy, didn't you hear me? There's no reason to apologize. Lucy, I love you with all my heart." Natsu said before kissing her again. This time she broke apart.
"Lucy, I promise that I will never do something so life threatening ever again. I'm here for you and never will I leave you. So please stop crying, it breaks my heart to see you cry, especially since I'm the reason your crying."
"But Natsu, these are tears of joy! I'm just so happy right now!" Lucy said while smiling with tears streaming down her face.
"Okay. Hey Lucy, how about we head to the guild? I'll tell you how I came back to life when we get there."
"Okay." She said while wiping her tears. Natsu picked her up and carried her bridal style, carrying her all the to the guild.
