LUCY'S POV

There we were. The priest kept asking us questions, but I was only half listening, a bit distracted.

Me and Sting Eucliffe.

Hand in hand.

This is a good thing.

I was panicked but I couldn't be more optimistic about it.

Thank you dad.

I'm sorry I wasn't there for you during your darkest year, worst months, and your unexpected  days.

Hopefully Sting will see through my good doing and he might actually cooperate.

Until The-

"I don't ." Sting blurted.

The old priest looked up in confusion, and so did I.

" I'm sorry but I can't do this. Sorry Lucy. I really a-am. " He looked me in the eye.

Are you kidding me?  I must be cursed or something?

Now that I think about it, it does sound quite upsetting.

"Stooopp the wedding. " Natsu came running and panting.

" Lucy don't marry that guy, Please."

I looked at him in mistrust.

" Why do you care who I marry?" I asked, boldly.

" because. Um... well because. I love you.  I have for while now."

What a day.

" Well how come you laughed at me when I said it to you?"

Remember when we were talking earlier? Come on Natsu.

"What do you mean?" His eyebrows narrowed.

"Nevermind. How could I expect you to remember anything." I smiled.

"Well if this wedding thingy is not happening, I'm gonna head out." Sting interrupted.

Everyone at the wedding was either scared or oddly staring at me. They all gave a 'what next' kind of look.

Well atleast now they know.

" Excuse me. " I saw a petite blue haired woman walking up to my side.

It was my mom.

We walked off to a side and I impatiently scratched my arms.

Could this day even get worse?

"Lucy, I'm sure you've gone through a lot, but are you sure you want to let him go?" Her words pierced through me.

I let him go?

"Excuse me?" Was all I could fathom, although I had a lot on my mind.

" I'm just saying, even after your father passed away, The Eucliffes have helped me balance out the buisness, until I could get on my own feet. I just wanted t-"

" Do you ever have anything else to offer? Am I a buisness deal mom?" And how dare she use my father as an excuse?

I stared at her for a response, but I could see she was cold. Nothing.  Not even an apology. 

" Lucy that's no-"

" No, what would have happened if I did marry him. Then what? What about the next people you do buisness with? What do they get? Happy?"

She looked taken aback. And a little voice in my head kept telling me to shut up. But I had to say it now, or I never would.

"Lucy, don't you talk back to me in that tone." I heard the ignorance in her voice melting. She was in denial.

"Luce, wanna go grab something to eat?" Natsu cluelessly interrupted our conversation. Or, her list of commands rather.

Just in time Natsu.

I was ready to end this toxic conversation but before I could say anything else, I saw that everyone was starting to pack up. Many old women were complaining about not seeing a wedding.

Everything was moving so fast. My friends were all there. Looking at me with pity. Some with confusion.

I was just a waste of their time.

My friends were starting to leave little by little.

" It's going to be okay, right Lucy? " I heard Happy's voice behind me, sappy.

"Yes. Yes it is." I said, not really believing it myself.

Actually, I was okay. I could finally let go. This wasn't even a loss to me.

This was meant to be.
