Fairy Tail: Let Light Shine Your Way

Chapter 25

Hello! I hope you guys are excited!!! Its 4th of July, and I was going to publish this yesterday for the fireworks video (in the media) but then I got caught up in a bunch of shit for today. So watch the video so we can all celebrate 4th of July together, even if we don't watch it at the same time. That doesn't matter, though!!! And I know you guys are probably like "WTF! I was looking forward to actual fireworks!" Well suck it up butter cup! So watch the video, and then read the chapter. Or the other way around. Or just read the chapter. I don't care. Do whatever! Anywho, I would like to dedicate this chapter to HongKong_! She is a new follower! Yeah! Love you HongKong_! Love you guys! Enjoy the chapter! And enjoy your fourth of July! (even if you don't celebrate it.)

POV: Lucy

"Natsu! Where are we going?" I asked while laughing, as Natsu dragged me down the hallway.

"You'll see." Natsu said. Then we walked out of the school and into the schoolyard. Then Natsu crouched down a little, in front of me. "Get on."

"Woah, woah." I said waving my hands in the air. "Natsu you know I'm afraid of heights." I said.

"Yeah, I know." Natsu said standing up straight and turned to look at me.

"So why are you trying to get me in the air?" I asked him. He then walked over to me and we were only a few inches away from each other.

"Do you trust me?" He asked.

"Yes." I said a bit hesitant.

"Then you have no reason to be afraid." He told me and backed up and crouched down again for me to get on his back. But I still didn't get on.

Flash Back:

"I promise I'll keep you safe." Natsu whispered in my ear as I drifted into a peaceful sleep.

I stared at Natsu's back and finally took a deep breath and wrapped my arms around Natsu's shoulders, and he scooped my legs out from underneath me.

"You ready?" Natsu asked spreading his wings open and the bandages fell off, revealing wound-free skin.

"No." I said.

"Well, too late to turn back now." He told me and got ready to take off.

"Wait, wait, wait! I change my mind, let me gooooooo!" I said but it was too late. Natsu took off into the air and I looked down at the ground as everything got smaller and smaller. I started to hyperventilate and was unable to look anywhere else but the ground.

"Luce." Natsu said getting my attention, and I was able to look at him still scared out of my damn mind. "You can't keep looking behind you in life, you have to look forwards at one point or another." And I followed what he just said to me, I looked out in front of us, and saw all of Magnolia. And I was able to stop hyperventilating.

'It's beautiful.'

I then felt a tear roll down my cheek.

"Hey." Natsu said getting my attention, and I looked at him as he looked over his shoulder at me. "No crying." I laughed a little.

"I'm sorry, I can't help it." I said, wiping the tear off my face. "I can't believe I've been missing out on a view like this." I said as I rested my chin on his shoulder.

"You're not scared anymore?" Natsu asked.

"At least for the moment." I said.

"Well, now you can answer your own question." Natsu said. "What's it feel like to fly?"
