love will be just around the corner

chapter 19

"LUCYYYYY HURRY UPPPP" Natsu screamed his patience was running short it has been hours since he arrived at the Heartfilia mansion
But Lucy was no where to be seen
"Im coming Natsu sheesh you are so inpatient "
"Yeah that's the 500th time I'm hearing it since hours "
"Oh hush "
Natsu let out an inpatient sigh as he ran his hand through his pink locks
The tension of Jenny ... the business party ...
His entire focus was now the way things are moving he would be lucky if they even reached there
It's not like he wanted to go there or even the least excited
But if they didn't arrived there his father is going to have his head
"LUC--" the voice .. her name ... never left his mouth ..
Those words stopped right where they generated as his heart skipped a beat or two
He lost count of it as he watched the queen of his world cascading down the stairs
The lavendar colour gown hugged each and every curve of her's
Her slender legs .... those warm chocolaty eyes .... her tiny waist ....everything was perfect
She was perfect
She took a step closer than another towards him
She wasn't just walking she was making his world revolve around her
With every step she takes she changes something around him ... something that makes him possesive for her because he knew that something anything ever happened to her
His world... his breath ... his life would crush .... it would be cold and he won't be able to search that warmth .. after all she is his warmth. ...his light ...
"NATSUUUUU?"
"Huh yeah?"
"You were zoning out "
"Oh I'm sorry lucy"
"Is something the matter? I don't look good ?"
"No you look great "
"Thank you Natsu"
"Shall we go?:"
"Yes!"
*************//***********///*********
Lucy had no idea what was going on
One moment Natsu was smiling all happy
But right now he was wearing a hateful scowl
The more they walk the more he was getting irritated
"Natsu?"
"I take it back"
"What?"
Now she was confused completely confused
"Take what back Natsu?"
"That you look good "
"I-I don't look?"
"You do actually you look more than good  "
"So what's the problem "
"The problem is every men who is present here thinks that too "
"Huh?"
"Jeez Luce look around "
Then only Lucy looked around taking in her surrounding every men was looking at her at every chance they get
And with every glimpse of those men Natsu's grip on her arm was getting tight
"I swear the moment they come closer to you I'm gonna reap them apart "
"Calm down Natsu you don't want to create a scene "
"You have no idea what they must be thinking inside those perverted mind of them"
"Oi flame brain can't look any more desperate ?"
"Shut it icicle you can talk because nobody is looking at Juvia"
"because they know she is no longer available "
Listening Gray's word Natsu turned around so fast as he looked in Lucy's eyes
"Lucy why can't we just marry already"
"Na-Natsu i already told you "
"Bu-but look at those men "
"Don't worry Natsu i love you ... you know that"
"But "
"No buts flamebrain trust Lucy "
Natsu opened his mouth to say something
But was stopped in mid sentence
"NATSUUUUUU DARLLLINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG"
"Shit!!"
Everyone looked at the source of voice A blonde was running towards them
Clad in a dress barely covering her body
As she bear  hugged Natsu
"Oh Natsu darling i missed you so much"
"Jenny let go " Natsu whisper screamed at her he looked more than uncomfortable with her body touching his.
Lucy watched the scene unfold infront of her first it seemed funny to her watching Natsu suffer but now she was getting irritated
With Jenny touching him
"Alrighy back off whoever are you"
Lucy grabbed Natsu as she freed him off her grip
"And who might be you to order me to stay away from my Natsu darling "
"His girlfriend Lucy heartfilia "
"Girlfriend!!! NATSU YOU DARED CHEAT ON ME "
"I HAVE NO IDEA SINCE WHEN WE WERE EVEN DATING"
"HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME NATSU"
"WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING AT ME"
Natsu looked beyond panicked as he watched her closing to him
But Lucy came in between them
"You need to back off and stop acting like his girlfriend he is not even comfortable with you "
"Like you know anything about him"
"I do know him "
"Yeah so you should know what kind of beast he is his nightly routine"
"Wh-what?" A red blush crept over her cheeks as she looked back at him feeling a little betrayed yes it didn't mattered to her
What Natsu did before meeting her but it still hurt her
But instead of meeting a scared look on his face she first saw it confused then pale and one look at her face his face expression changed to something that she never saw
"Jenny !"
"Yes Natsu darl-"
" don't ! And don't feed Lucy stupid lies there is nothing that happened between us "
"You can't deny it Natsu"
"JENNY!"NATSU's voice boomed in the entire room as silence crept over
Jenny face looked that of embarrassment as
She spoke " you will be sorry for this Natsu Dragneel " as she walked away
Natsu turned back as he soothingly held Lucy's face
" I'm sorry you have to listen that "
"No its ok "
Lucy looked at him with tear filled eyes and a face with smile
"Now go ahead with Juvia look around "
"Ah okay"
Natsu looked as Lucy walked away he was happy when he stood up for him
He had no idea why he was always scared of
Jenny even today he wanted to avoid her
He wasn't ready to yell at her ... damn he didn't even wanted to get involved with her
But lucy's eyes that held the look of betrayal made something click inside him .
"So Natsu ..?"
"I know i messed up Gray "
"Yeah but what you did was right we will get through what Jenny RELIGHT brings "
"Yeah we will "
