I hated it, the snow. It was what killed her when I turned my back. I still remember the day clearly.

FLASHBACK

'Dang it!' I thought. we hadn't managed to the the reward and now Lucy couldn't pay her rent. Where was she going to stay?

I looked at her, "Sorry Luce," I said guiltily knowing this was my fault.

She smiled at me with that priceless smile, "Sorry for what?" she asked, confused.

"We didn't get the reward and now you have all you stuff in the spirit work with no where to stay," I said sadly.

"Hey, cheer up Natsu, it's all right, I will just stay with Erza!" she said cheerily.

"Do you need help finding your way to Fairy Hills? It's pretty snowy, it might be hard to navigate." I asked.

"Don't worry Flame Brain, Lucy can take care of herself!" Gray shouted from the bar, obviously listening to our conversation.

I looked at her in concern, she didn't look very sure about this, "Yeah listen to Gray I got this! Bye Natsu!" she turned around and waved her right hand towards me so I could see her guild mark for a last time.

"Kay'" I said, with my dragon hearing I heard a light jingle on the ground. Must be my imagination cuz' it sounded just like Lucy's keys.

Lucy POV

When I left the guild I felt sad that Natsu didn't come with me, but I had to prove I wasn't weak. I can get home by myself.

It's a bit cold but I can handle it. I stuck my arms inside my shirt. A cold breeze blew across me. I closed my eyes tightly. When I opened them I saw a light, it must be my house!

But, it was getting hard to move. I just want to sleep right now. I fell over and hit my head on the pavement. Ouch. Why an I move? Everything is so blurry. I can't breath! But I'm so relaxed, I'll just give in.

Natsu POV

When I woke up I was clutching a beer glass to my chest. Why did I feel so sad? I looked across the guild and saw Lucy's keys? Did she get home safely? I jumped up and ran to her house.

Right outside, I saw my worst nightmare. It was Lucy, her skin had a blue hue her lips were opened a crack and she wasn't breathing.

FLASHBACK ENDS

Now here I stand, next to her grave on a snowy day, crying.

Disclaimer: If I owned Fairy Tail, Lucy would have like a million secret admirers and Natsu as her boyfriend.
