Never Forget

Can't Do This Anymore

Lucy

Natsu was given strength by Levy's power. Her grandma is weak at the moment by using too much magical energy so she's resting in bed. But, Levy is in denial right now. She doesn't think that her grandma will pass away.

I'm worried for her, though.

Juvia drove home and I went to escort Natsu to his house. It was a pretty big house, if I may say so myself.

"I'll got take a shower, okay? Be right back."

I smile at him and he walks down the hall.

Promptly, a gust of wind touches my back and I turn around to see what it was.

It was Lisanna.

I scoff, not wanting to deal with her.

"What is it now?" I asked, pouting.

She runs towards me and pins me towards the wall.

"I will hurt every family member of yours, including the ones you love! But, that can be avoidable."

"What?"

"I love Natsu and he loves me. I want you to break up with him in front of his face in a very heartbreaking way! I will be watching."

"What? No way! I won't do that-mmph!"

She blocks my mouth with her hand and shushes me.

"Shh. If you don't, I'll start off with your brother, Romeo."

I widen my eyes and shake my head. She removes her hand and I grit my teeth.

"Please! Don't hurt him. I'm begging you! Romeo and Aquarius are the only family I got! They deserve happiness."

"Then do as I told you. Break up with him and give him a good reason."

She runs off and I gasp, tears flowing down my cheeks.

This can't be real! I don't want to break up with Natsu!

"I'll start off with your brother, Romeo."

Romeo. He'll get hurt if I don't do what I was told to do.

I wipe my tears and sigh, sniffing.

"Lucy? Are you okay?" 

I gasp, turning around. It was Natsu fully clothed.

"Wow. You take showers really quick." I said, tears getting ready to fall down.

"Ah, well I'm a vampire–um, you're crying. Lucy, what's wrong?"

"I...I can't do this anymore. I'm sorry. With Lisanna coming back, I just feel something inside of me. It's a gut feeling and it's telling me to do what's right. But my heart tells me a different thing."

Natsu looks at me and tears fall down my cheeks. Suddenly, I see his lip quiver.

He's gonna cry.
