(Lucy POV) It's been about a week now and Natsu and Lisanna aren't back from their job. Everyone is getting worried while I stay heartbroken, hiding behind a fake smile.

"WE'RE BACK!" Natsu shouted kicking the door in. He had a bandage on his head and Lisanna had one on her leg.

Everyones worriedness turned straight to relief. I looked at my bracelet and 1 out of my 5 charms were fully black. Bad stuff happens when they all turn black.

I layed my head on the table and closed my eyes. I haven't gotten much sleep lately and have lost most of my appetite. I've only eaten 1 meal per day and the total amount of sleep I got this week is about 3 hours.

"Oi Luce" Natsu said shaking me. I was about to fall asleep

"Yes?" I asked with my eyes still closed

"Why are you so tried lately?" He asked concerned

"Just... not enough sleep. That's all" I half lied

"Are you sure? Then you should go home and sleep" Natsu said super concerned now. I guess I was wrong about him and Lisanna, but why do I get this feeling they're hiding something

"I guess..." I said and got up, but then fell to my knees. I could barley walk.

"Lucy!" Natsu exclaimed helping me up. He picked me up bridal style and everything went black

I woke up sooner or later in my apartment, in my bed with an arm over me. I turn my head and see Natsu asleep with me. He puts another arm on my and pulls me closer.... so warm...

I closed my eyes and fell back asleep, snuggled up next to Natsu
