Shielded Heart

Chp. 22

~Last Time~

I then came across a large Lake? I want to say it was breathtaking it even had an inner water fall and once again the blue light was showing. I was mesmerized at the scene before me. I've lived here as long as I could remember but I have never encountered this place.

I then brought my gaze down and noticed something on the edge of the water.

"Lu...cy..."

Once again my whole world was......

There at the edge of the water was Lucy.....

~Now Natsu POV~

I don't know what to do.

When I saw Lucy like that.......It just brock me to millions of peace's.

Never in my entire life have I ever thought I would feel like this let alone have a girl sneak into my heart?

Is this how Love works? How it should feel? To stress? To doubt every little thing you do? To make them smile? To keep them safe from harm's way? To protect?

Right now I'm sitting in my dining room table drinking my black coffee to ease my nerves. I know coffee isn't for that kind of situation but I'm only drinking it to stay awake and alert from any incoming danger.

Why you may ask?

Well simple really. For Lucy's sake what else?

I finished my coffee – set it in the sink and went to check up on Luce. I noticed she was a little chill so I lied down beside her to keep her warm.

Yes I'm sleeping beside her not sleeping around! And yes I could have just used more blankets to warm her up, but come on who wouldn't want to take up this opportunity to lay next to the girl you like or even love? And besides my extra blankets are in the dirty pile, I really need to wash this upcoming weakened.

*sigh*

I've been doing this for two nights now. Not that I'm complaining or anything if anything I'm loving it!  

And Yes it has been about two days going for three that Luce has been here with me, but instead of having fun and such she's been out cold.

I just look down at her perfect figure self-no I'm not checking her body – just observing her silky smooth skin tone color that was once ice cold white when I brought her back home, plumbed purple lips going back to that beautiful pink, her cute little button nose, her eyes- oh don't get me started in her eyes- I wish I could see them again. But even if her eyes are closed she's beautiful. And with her eyes opened its just breath-taking...........a perfect Angle

Who are you Luce? – I thought

She has this mysteries vibe towards her. Like she's hiding things from our sights, As if a secret garden- if anyone finds it - it'll be all over for her. Her world would crumble.

Yet she has this outgoing side of her. She may not display it in front of me but I did pay attention when she was around her friends and ice prick.

Just the thought of him and my Luce being so close just brings my blood to a boil. But I get it - they grew up together. That much I understood but that doesn't mean I like it.
