Bros I am sorry

*6 months later*

Lucy POV

I knew him for about a month and since then he hasn't left my mind.  School has continued without fault and Christmas went by and no news whatsoever. He just disappeared but all of his belongings remained in my apartment, regular payments were still being made into my account even though he wasn't staying here anymore.

It was now the beginning of February and I was now out of hope, out of luck and infuriated. So like any sane person I am holding a garage sale and selling that piece of shit belongings'.  You are probably thinking that this is petty and pretty stupid but I gave my heart to him too soon and I am never making that mistake with anyone ever again.
I was planning on putting the shit up for sale on February 14th, Valentines Day. Some irony there.

I fell in love incredibly fast and I gave myself to him too soon, I could've waited and waited until I got to know him but he just used me for my body. Something that I am unsure that I can forgive him for if I ever see him again.

Since his disappearance I have managed to get a better job and sort the rent out that way, I am refusing to touch the money that I assume he has been putting in my account. I'm working at the hospital nearby as a nurse, it doesn't pay the best but it helps with the rent. I also have a part time job at the cafe on my street, it's more of a Saturday job to live with extra money but not much extra.

It is tiring trying to manage my life at the age of 17 almost 18 on, guess the date, 14th February. Oh how my life has set me up this way.

I am still lying in my bed after contemplating my thoughts, like I do most mornings now, I should probably get up since it's my day off today I better make the most of it. Seeing as the time is now 10:30 am I got up and had a shower and doing my daily routine, dressing myself in a pair of blue denim shorts and a plain white t-shirt. Perfect for a day in with my best friend Netflix.
Speaking of best friends, my human one has been increasingly distant lately making me suspicious since we don't hide anything from each other, so what is she hiding?

It doesn't matter today though because today is my me day, a day spent with pizza and movies, starting with a Marvel marathon.

Wow I can't believe I have spent my time this wisely today, just sitting and eating, occasionally getting up to get more food. Today was a great day to rest my mind and soul, something that I haven't been able to do for a long time.
Just as I am about to press play for my 5th film my door bell goes.
'For fuck sake'
'Who is it?' I say in a somewhat cheery voice.
'Levy'
Oh so it's been 2 weeks and now she's actually deciding to spend time with me outside of school.

'Come in I guess'
' I'm not alone by the way Lucy' she said revealing Gajeel. Oh of course he's with her, the devils best friend.
'Oh hi Gajeel,' I said, facing the brute of a man.
'Hi Lucy,' he said in a somewhat awkward tone.

'Hey anyway, what gives me the absolute pleasure of seeing you both here after how long, oh yes 2 weeks?'
'Don't be like that Lucy, we've been busy that is all?' Levy said trying to reassure me.
'Oh yeah too busy to even make some contact with your best friend outside of school or even send a text or god forbid call me!?'
'That's enough Lucy!' Gajeel shouted

'No it is not enough, do you know what I've been going through for the past 6 months, the heart ache and mental strain that I have been going through!'
'Yes I do because my best friend has left me too, not spoken to me or made contact!' Gajeel shouted back.

Well shocker, Natsu has been a bitch to us all.
'Well then we both know how it feels then, if that's all you have come here for is to shout then you may leave,' I said trying to calm myself down.
'No speaking of Natsu, I have in fact spoken to him, he says that he misses you,'

Oh...my...biscuits

Wow it's actually been 6 months and I feel horrible about it, this is a decently long chapter to try and make up for that fact. I will hopefully get my shit together soon and try and finish this book.
