Lucy
I'm in disbelief.
I was laying down on my bed, crying and deep in thought.
What am I going to do? This...this cannot be happening to me.
I touch my belly and softly rubbed it, tears streaming down my cheeks.
"Don't blame the child...but blame yourself."
I have to let the baby live. It's not the baby's fault anyways.
"Lu-chan? Hey, are you alright? I haven't seen you–"
"Levy, I'm pregnant." I said, sitting up from bed to face her.
She gasps and widens her eyes.
"Oh my God! Isn't that...isn't that exciting!?" She asks, closing the door and sitting next to me in bed.
"I...I don't know. I'm only 17 and I'm still in school."
"Lu-chan...I'm really sorry." She says, touching my belly.
"What do you sense?"
A smile grows to her lips and she looks at me.
"The baby inside your stomach is growing up really fast. Your belly will start to increase either by today at night or tomorrow." She says.
"Oh...is it a girl or a boy?"
"I still don't know yet. The baby hasn't processed the body parts yet. I'll tell you when you get your first bump."
I nodded and touch my belly again. Maybe...just maybe having a child isn't so bad after all.
"Who's the father? Is it Natsu?" Levy asks, chuckling.
"I'm pretty sure." I said, smiling.
I'm carrying mine and Natsu's child. We're gonna be a family soon.
"Awe. Are you planning on telling him, Lu-chan?"
"Uh...I'm not sure. I'll tell him when he starts to grow suspicious on my belly and the cravings for food."
"Okay. Maybe you can surprise him. You can plan something to tell him that you're pregnant. You can baby clothes! Or even a pacifier to give him a sign! Oh, his reaction would be priceless!"
"Yeah...I'll do that. That sounds like fun. But, will Natsu's reaction be joyful?"
"Lu-chan, Natsu isn't one to get angry over a child and a family. He loves you so much! He loves family and friendship and I'm pretty sure Natsu would like one of his own with the person he loves the most...and that's you, Lu-chan."
She grabs my hand and comforts me, smiling.
"Thank you, Levy. I'm so happy to call you my best friend." I said, tears already escaping my eyes.
"Me too..."

The next day, I haven't seen Natsu anywhere. I'm starting to worry.
What if he doesn't come back? What if I can't tell him about us being future parents?
Speaking of future, I wonder where's Future Lucy and Erza. I'm having a big concern for them now.
"Gray, you haven't seen Erza anywhere?" I ask, and he shrugs.
"Nope. Now that I think about it, she hasn't came since last week if I recall." Gray says, and a bad feeling in my gut starts to rumble.
"I don't know where she is. I'm scared, Gray. We have to go find her!" I said.
"We are, Lucy. She's gonna be okay. She's Erza, after all." He says, smirking.
"No, Gray. This is serious. I want Erza here safe and sound along with my future self!"
"Future Self? Lucy, what are you talking about?"
He doesn't know.
"It's a long story but someone came into the portal to warn me about a big war that's gonna happen in the future...and that was me. Future Lucy. She disappeared with Erza on the exact same day and I just...I don't know what happened but I'm really worried about them!"
Gray looks at me and sighs.
"Juvia and I will investigate with Cana. You relax and calm yourself. I think you deserve a day off." He says, smiling.
"Thank you so much. Please, find them soon."
"Also, where the hell is my brother at!?"
"I don't know. I haven't seen him all day. I'm starting to get worried."
"Don't worry too much. It's bad for your health and the baby."
"What!? H-How do you–"
"I obviously can sense another human inside your belly, Lucy. I know it's Natsu's 'cause of the baby's DNA. I hope you two have a great family together. And I'm sorry...for trying to interfere with your relationship with him."
"Oh...it's alright. Well, I hope you have a family with Juvia also."
"Juvia can't be pregnant. She's a vampire. It's like saying...how will the dead bring a living human to life? Doesn't make sense."
"Sorry. I'm really sorry about that. But you can always...adopt."
"We'll see what we can do. First, I have to officially make our relationship confirmed." He says, smirking.
"Okay! And thank you so much for helping me with the whole Erza and Future Lucy thing. I appreciate it." I said, smiling.
"Anytime."

Natsu
I gasp for the 10th time, trying to open the door as I slam my hands against it.
This is fucking torture for me!!!
I'm really starting to feel like quitting. I can't open the stupid door!
My consciousness starts to fade away but a sudden blue flash appears in my head.
It was a vision.
Lucy and I were together. She was laying down with her head against my chest.
"Natsu?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't give up. I believe in you. The biggest news is about to be revealed to you when you're back home. Please, live to hear that." She says, small tears escaping her eyes.
"I...I can't. I'm trapped. There's no way out. I'm sorry."
"You have to believe in yourself no matter what situation you are in! Please! Don't give up on me! I'm begging you! I really miss you and I'm starting to get worried on where you're at!"
"Lucy...I'm so sorry. This is torture for me. I keep on living and dying over and over again. It doesn't s-stop."
"Natsu...I love you. Please, live for me. Try kicking the door!!"
I gasp and slammed the door again! I began to kick and kick. I heard a noise and it sounds like it's making process.
"Don't leave me, Lucy. You're my strength right now."
My vision soon fades away. I guess I'll start kicking the door when I'm brought back to life.
