"What."

"Lucy, sorry to call this late..."

"Get to the point will you?"

Mirajane sighs, "I'm sorry, about the things I've said."

"And done, you didn't just say things you also did some things."

"Right, I'd like to apologize for that too."

"That's a very shitty way to apologize."

"Look Lucy–"

"I can't 'look' it's a phone call Mirajane..."

"Lucy I understand you're mad, but could you stop being so difficult? I'm sorry, I'm sorry we had to end things this way. I'm sorry I tried to use you, I'm sorry I told people your business. But I meant everything I've said. Maybe I should have told you differently,"

"For a while I've wanted to tell you that maybe we should go separate ways. To find ourselves, you know?" She breaths in, "we're the only thing holding each other back."

"..."

"We're both immature, we don't want to grow up. Remember those times we swore to never grow up, to never face our problems that come in our way. Lucy–we have to, it's not a choice."

"Mirajane not all of us have it eas–"

"I know! I don't have it easily Lucy, neither do you. But we need to reach a certain point in our life where we face everything. We need to grow up. We aren't going to be eighteen forever."

"Mirajane...you know what you're saying right?"

"I do! We need to let go–you need to let go. He's gone luce, he isn't coming back not now not ever. He's dead."

Suddenly my throat feels tight.

"...I know." Whispering I sit up, my heavy eyes wide, "I know why you called."

She's silent for a while, "I'm sorry for your loss."

Swallowing a tight knot down my throat I keep my voice down, "I'm hanging up."

"Lucy..."

"By–"

"You need to let go, please don't do it agai–"

"You can't make me–You can't make me." I croak, "please don't..."

"He's go–"

"Shut up!" I yell, "shut up shut up!"

"You don't understand me, you never did. It's bullshit for you out of everyone to call me telling me to grow up!"
