"Luce, can I ask you something?"

"Of course!"

"Are you scared of death?"

She remembers it clearly, his serious face. The frown he held. He knew, didn't he? 

He was told he had six months to live. 

Cancer.

Natsu Dragneel has cancer.

He's dying.

Right next to her, in the guild infirmary.

"Did you know?"

He looked at her, confusion etched on his face.

"Huh?"

"Did you already know you had cancer, before they told you?"

.

"Yeah"

"Is that why you asked me if I was scared of death?"

"Yeah"

.

.

.

.

"I'm not scared"

She looked at him. His smile, it was like...

"Are you?"

... The sunshine.

"No"

Never, as long as the sun shines there.

The sunshine Natsu shares.
