The end of the day rolls around, and me and Natsu walk home silently. A question still rolls around in my mind though. Did he really mean what he said last night? A cold breeze slips through the air. The leaves on the trees had started to fade a week before, now they're all different colors, and slowly starting to fall.
The grass has started to fade and the sky is a pale blue, covered with clouds. The world is at peace, but not me. "Natsu," I begin. He looks over at me. "Hmm?" "Well I wanted to tell you..." I hesitate for a minute. No, I can't tell him right now so I just say "Nothing." He looks back towards the sidewalk in-front of us.
"Well if you're too sissy to break the silence, then I will." He says. "From the gossip I've been hearing, the principal is planning on removing our cuffs tonight." My face falls. I was starting to like being with Natsu nonstop. Minus the doing absolutely everything with. I suddenly became scared because of the question that was floating around in my mind.
Does this mean if the cuffs are removed then Natsu will abandon me and it will go back to old times? No. Please no. I don't want this to happen! I keep my fear inside of me and plaster a fake smile over my face. "Oh, well good." Is all I say. "We have to meet him at Magnolia park." Says Natsu, adding onto his sentence.
We continue to walk home, in pure silence.
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
I watch the sunset fade in the distance while me and Natsu sit on a log next to a big tree. All of a sudden, I Principal Makarov and Vice Principal Mirajane walk up the hill and greet us. "Hello guys, I suppose you have both been kind to each other." We nod our heads, eager to get the cuffs off.
He pulls out a key from his pocket. "Well, I guess the both of you can be free now as long as you continue to be kind to one another." Natsu starts to get overly excited. "Yep! Now please take these things off!" He shouts. The key turns, the lock snaps. And I feel the freedom of my own wrist once again, but now it's forever.
Natsu starts throwing a personal party for himself, and I just stand in silence. The principals' walk off, leaving me and Natsu alone. As soon as they are far enough away, and their car has driven away, his phone rings. He answers, and talks to the caller.
Then his face falls so much I swear it's to the ground. He stops smiling, he stops jumping, he stops moving. And I swear his onyx eyes full of happiness start to get a slight bit watery. He ends the call and walks down the hill and into the distance.
The world that was once at peace is now starting to become restless fro a reason that I don't know.
