I lay face down in bed with a happily snoring Frosch lays on my back. Unlike me, who was in a infinite cloud of torture- Frosch seemed happy in here. Though I knew it was just the curse and my light magic making him happy in this situation.

I'd been up all night giving small amounts of my magic energy to Frosch I keep him comforted. I close my eyes remembering Virgos time with this curse, it felt almost 10 times worse though. I had to keep her gate open while comforting her with my magic, and that is not an easy feat- trust me.

"Hey Luc-" I don't bother looking, as I realize it's Natsu considering it came from the direction o my window. I hear him sniffing around and remember that he can smell Rogus scent.

"Why is the Emos scent here?" He questions, I glance at him as he sniffs around the room looking for the "emo". I roll my eyes and stuff my face back into my pillow, in which I groan- I REALLY wish this would just be over with and done so I could get this tension off of my back.

"He's staying here while I take care of Frosch. He got a curse and my magic helps. Do you not feel the dark aura around the house, Frosch?" Turning over, I carefully slide Frosch into my lap- where I look tiredly at the two. They just look at me with a look I can't really explain.

"Now that you mention it..." Happy said looking up at the ceiling, at the wooden ridges of it- he looks at me with a look of slight sadness. "This place is really messy." He glances around the room, but I can tell they are physically feeling the effects- judging by the sorrowful expressions for both of them. Happy looks at me for a long moment before uttering the words that a could forever end his short existence.

"You look horrible." Happy states, and though it's his normal behavior- I can't help but be annoyed at his attitude. I scowl at them and glare, Happy just looks at me with fear.

"Shut it, you stupid cat!" I breathe out, scowling once again at my behavior. It's hard to control my frustration when in this state, and that too- annoyed the living day lights out of me. Like I've said before, having magic exhaustion is not a very fun thing- and frankly, something I wished and still wish- I didn't have to deal with.

"Sorry, magic exhaustion makes me a little snappy." I apologize to them quietly, suddenly very timid. I continue to stroke Froschs back as I hear my door open, knowing its Rogue, after putting Fro down, I get up- staggering Natsu rushes over to help me from falling over. Rogue comes in and sees me, he also rushes over to me and helps Natsu sit me back down.

"You know you don't have enough strength to walk on your own Lucy." Rogue looks at me sternly. I pout and lean against the headboard, he gives me a look that tells me to go to bed- I comply after a moment, but for some reason it is very difficult.

After I feel Happy curl up next to me and Frosch, I relax and start to drift to sleep as I hear a slightly loud conversation from my kitchen area- and they obviously think I have passed out by now, considering my magic exhaustion.

"Why are you doing this to her?!" I hear Natsy voice, slightly louder than needed- but I can tell he's frustrated by the strain in his voice. I knew that strain in his voice ever to well, I have heard it so many times yet... It still sounded so foreign to his normal nature.

"It was her choice, she said she had experience with it and volunteered to help me out." Rogue states coldly, not the slightly talkative person I've been with for the past two days.

"Can't you see the strain it's having on her body?!" Natsu yells loudly, a fire behind his furious words, "You are going to kill her!" I hear Rogue hit Natsu, and though I can't tell where- I can tell it hurt.

"Shut up. She's sleeping. And if your so concerned about her choices, go talk to her about it. Don't come whining to me." I felt the air shift around my window and I can tell Natsu had run out, I had almost yelped when I felt Natsu pick up Happy, surprising me.

"What have I gotten myself into?" I hear him sit in a chair around the room, sighing before shifting and seeming to go into a peaceful sleep- and I follow closely behind.
