Her Protector ~NaLu~

~Chapter eleven~

Never think that what you have to offer is insignificant. There will always be someone out there that needs what you have to give.

~Lucy's POV

I stared at myself in the bathroom of my own house. You could clearly see the damage Natsu caused me. Red places, scratches, bruises and more. Luckily I didn't feel them anymore. Wendy's magic is incredible.

Then I suddenly realized that Natsu hasn't changed back yet.

I am not even wondering how the hell I woke up in my own bed. My friends must have brought me. I made my way to the guild, not hearing the usual noise and screams.

I opened the door and I saw a few people looking at me, they greeted me but they all looked focused on something.

There was a crowd in the back corner. Erza ran to me. "Lucy! You're back. We need you now. Natsu totally lost it."

She grabbed me by the arm and dragged my through the crowd. When I saw why the were there I was shocked. A little bit.

Natsu was chained to the wall and oh, he was furious.

He was repeately shaking, trying to get off of those chains. "Let go of me you stupid Fairy Tail wizards! Once I am free you don't know what I'll do to you. You cannot stop me with those stupid chains! I will freaking kill you guys," he roared. Thank God he was chained, otherwise we were...

He didn't see me yet. He kept screaming about letting him free etc. It was painful to watch. Once he saw me his hatred was directly, and I mean directly aimed at me. It looked like he only saw me for a moment.

"You fucking bitch! Standing there proudly, thinking you got me," he began and stuck his head more heading towards me, making me walk a little bit back. "But let me get this to you clear. I am not done yet. You are still nothing and always will be nothing. You are going to pay."

Everything he said was so hurtful that it got me to shiver. I didn't find my voice as I looked at him. Why hasn't he turned to the celestial world? When does the spell stops having an effect on him?

I turned around and saw half of the guild looking at us. "Leave guys. Your stares are not going to work."

Everyone left except Erza, Wendy and Gray. "Why hasn't he turned back yet? Can't he... turn back?" At the thought of Natsu being forever this is painful. They explained everything to me and I was only saddened with it.

Erza picked something from her clothes. It was my key. Natsu's key.

"Here. We forgot to give you this."

I took it and stared at it. Then my next stare was at Natsu who was still looking at me. He didn't say a word, and hopefully he wouldn't. But everyone knows he would.

I wanted to say to him that it would be okay. Telling him I want the old one back and everything. But he interrupted my shut mouth.

"If you even think for a second that you can control me, you're wrong. I am not someone to control and definitely not by the likes of you," he snarled at me.

"Don't talk to her like that," Gray said, his eyes narrowed. Natsu turned to him for a brief second. "Or what? You are gonna attack me? Kill me? We both know you wouldn't dare. This chick here obviously cares too much for me. You would hurt her if you lay a hand on me. And we both know that."

Gray clenched his hands because what Natsu said was true. It was so fucking true, and I hate it. Natsu smirked, knowing he won this.

"Friends are fucking stupid. All relying on each other but when you need them the most they turn their backs to you," he spat out, looking at everyone in the guild. Erza and Wendy were also giving him dead looks.
