{No POV}

Lucy stood up silently and went to the kitchen. She then prepared some of his favorite tea and brought it out for them.

"Let's fix this mess already and talk... Lucy.." Spoke up Natsu gratefully accepting the tea.

She gulped and sighed before nodding in acceptsnce.

"Let's talk then..." She responded.

•••••••••••• NOW ••••••••••••

They remain silent for a few moments before Natsu spoke up.

"The Charm Spell..." He brought up pausing to gauge her reaction.

She looked down at her tea cup nervously before making a noise of nervous acceptance of talking about it.

"... I wasn't even intending on saving you, i knew it was a charm spell but my mind was mainly on the possibility of finding Igneel. When i noticed you were snapped out of it i pretended i didn't notice because i was reluctant to like anyone ever again." He said with a pause to calm himself and his emotions with a sip of his tea.

"My world was very small back then. The few people i allowed myself to really get close to were Gramps, Mira, Erza and Gray. Specially after Lisanna supposedly died. I once cared a lot for Lisanna and it broke me when she supposedly died. I got better and healed emotionally somewhat because of my closest nakama and Happy, but i swore off love and relationships and all that. So when i saved you, i acted as if i didn't know anything about a charm spell or the ways to break out of a charm spell." He finished.

She hummed in understanding before speaking.

"I noticed what you were doing because your eyes gave you away that day. I played along to save face but because i was an even bigger coward than i am now i didn't dare speak of what it meant that you only broke me out of it. I honestly was thankful for the save so i offered you guys lunch to repay you. My intention was to go my own way after that and continue to search for Fairy Tail so i could join. But you saved me again on that yacht from being kidnapped as a part of the slave trade and before i knew it we were running off together with happy into the train that was quickly departing to Magnolia..." Spoke up Lucy.

Natsu nodded in understanding feeling her looking at him leaning back on her chair.

"I didn't dare to bring it up after that because as we grew closer you still refused to bring it up and i just assumed and i kind of can't figure anything else to this day other than that you just don't feel anything romantic towards me. So i kept silent. But as we brew closer, and there were times i saw you naked and times i discovered more about you and we went on more adventures and expirienced more together i began to love you more and more and the deeper the lies went and the longer the act dragged on. Though it was never my intention and i had tried to find the courage to say something to bring things up. But each time i either wussed out or it wasn't the right time to bring it up." Spoke up Natsu.

Lucy sighed sadly.

"I regret being a coward and slut. I shouldn't have slept with other men. But it wasn't easy. Every single time i slept with one of them i was clear with them that it was without any strings attached. That i couldn't ever love them because my heart belonged to you and each one was fine with that, because they were in the same situation or they needed the same thing i did. I needed to release my my anger, my sadness, my fear. So being horny because of you, because you had turned me on i turned to another man and hooked up with them." Began Lucy making Natsu tense as well as herself.
