"Why are you running?" The blonde glared at the red haired girl as she followed her everywhere.
"Why are you following me?" Lucy as answered, her voice raspy as she cried the whole night until her voice got sore.
"Why are you answering her question with a question?" The raven haired male leaned against the wall from other side.
"Why do you insist on following me?" She hissed at him and her rolled her eyes. "Tough."
Lucy just ignored them and tried to walk through but the raven haired boy stepped into her way.
"Move."
"Stop running."
"Move." Lucy growled and the boy moved, involuntarily, growing his eyebrows.
Lucy quickly walked away and crashed into the doors to the bathroom, splashing cold water on her face.
She panted quietly and looked up.
She froze, upon seeing her own reflection in the mirror.
Her eyes were yellow.
Which means the male did not move because he wanted to.
She made him move.
She's loosing control.
Again.

"I'm telling you again, I did not let her go." Gray slammed his tray onto the table and threw himself on the chair next to Mira.
Erza, sitting opposite of him, glared. "You just moved outta her way."
"I did. But I didn't."
"What are you two idiots talking about?" Gajeel asked, chewing his burger.
"Gray let the Luna go and she run away." complained Erza and Gray sighed irritated.
"For the last time. I did not let her go."
"You moved out of her way!"
"Not because I wanted to!"
"Why are you two even following her around?" The salmon haired male growled at his two Betas.
"Just trying to make friends with her." Erza brushed it off and took a bit out of her sandwich.
"There she is, by the way." The older twin of Lisanna, another Omega, a white haired Mira said, pointing in the direction where the blondie walked.
The blondie heard every word they said. But she didn't even flinch.
She couldn't.
She was too ashamed.
Too frightened.
And as her heart raced and the sole sound of it filled her ears, her blood pumping through her veins, as she felt the color changing in her eyes, across the room, the onyx eyes haven't left her, not once.
He sat next to his friends, listening to the sound of her heart.
He was never dumb.
He could always put two and two together.
That was the moment he knew.

"Hey." Lucy turned around and smiled on the blonde guy who handed her a bag of fries.
"You're late."
"Nope. You are just early." He smile back at her.
"Who's that?" Both blondes looked in the direction the cuter one pointed to.
"Oh that one? No idea." Lucy shook her head and Sting raised his eyebrows on her.
"You do realize that every time we hang out there is someone following us? Literally stalking?" He stared at her and Lucy felt her chest tightening.
Sting smirked and smacked Lucy on the arm. "I'm kidding." They both chuckled, one honest one nervous.
"So..." Sting started but stuffed his mouth with fries before continuing.
"There is the meteor shower that's supposed to be happening tonight. Wanna come?" He licked the salt of his fingers and raised his eyebrows on his blonde friend.
Lucy swallowed and wiped her mouth before answering. "Sure. I mean, I planned on watching it anyway."
"Great. Meet up here?"
"Sure." She smiled.

Lucy sighed as she jumped of the last stair of the bus. It was already dark inside, but according to the page she read, she still had an hour before the meteor shower.
It took a lot to persuade Lorcan, that everything will be okay, if she goes out on one night.
After all, it was a special night.
Her mother's birthday.
A day she could not bear to look at her brothers without feeling immense guilt.
The blonde walked to her school, lost in her thoughts.
That's why she didn't even realize when she walked right past one of her former best friends.
"Ignoring me now?" Lucy sounds around, but before she could react, Jackal's hand was around her throat.
Her eyes widened, before a growl escaped her teeth and she dug her nails into his arm.
He chuckled. "Nice try. But right now, you are far from being able to overpower me."
"Fuck off." The blonde sipped, as she gasped for air.
"If my memory's intact, I told you to never show your face here again, didn't I?" Both of them spun their heads, well Lucy as much as she could, since her throat was still clasped by Jackal's hand.
Natsu leaned against a lamp across them, his hands crossed on his chest.
"If it isn't the big bad Alpha." Jackal chuckled, tightening his grasp on Lucy's throat.
As she winced and dug her nails deeper, Natsu frowned.
"You have three seconds to let her go, before I rip out your throat."
"Try me."
All Lucy could feel was how her back hit the ground as Natsu jumped at Jackal, his teeth clenched, his eyes yellow.
"I do not like repeating myself. And I certainly won't do it again."
Jackal chuckled as he stood back up and eyed the salmon haired Alpha.
"You are a great example of why he is right."
Lucy's eyes widened and she hissed in the direction of the arrogant Beta.
"You know I'm right Lulu. And you will come back to your senses. Your highness." Mockingly, he bowed to her before turning around and running into the night.
Lucy sat up and looked at the hand Natsu extended to her.
She took it and stood up.
" I think it's time you and I have a little talk." The blonde spun to look into the onyx eyes and gasped.
She didn't even have to ask why.
She could see her own reflection of the yellow eyes in his black ones.

Natsu opened the door to the roof and closed it behind them.
Lucy's told there. She didn't know what to say.
How can she explain them?
A female with yellow eyes?
But Natsu didn't even look at her as he walked over to the railing and leaned on it.
He stood there looking up on the sky, while the puzzled blonde froze beside the door.
He wanted to talk and now he's ignoring her?
It was a while, before Lucy followed him and mimicked his stance.
The two of them stood on top of the roof in complete silence.
After a while, Natsu got what he wanted and the blonde starting speaking.
"I guess you figured it out."
He remained quiet.
She sighed and pulled her hair back in frustration. "For gods sake, say something!"
He finally looked at her. "That's why you kept saying that there is no way that you can be a Luna. Because you are an Alpha."
Lucy groaned as these words escaped his lips.
"I never wanted this." She sighed and covered her eyes with her palms.
"The day I merged with my Wolf, I realized something was different. It wasn't until I first turned, that my eyes were yellow and that Celestine is an Alpha."
She sighed and jumped on the railing, sitting on it, her back to the high fall.
"I never heard of a female Alpha."
She scoffed. "That's because there are no female Alpha. Aside me. It's not normal. It's not the way that the nature intended it. Men are Alpha's, protecting the pack. Female are Luna's, taking care of the pack. Female protecting the pack? I'm no feminist, this is against the nature!"
Lucy waved her hands around in frustration, and yelled as her foot slipped and she felt her body falling, before Natsu coughed her arm and pulled her back.
Her body collided with his.
Before she could move, she froze as he cupped her cheek with his palm. She looked up and met his deep eyes again.
Whenever she looked at him, the only thing she could see was his eyes.
She felt so safe just by looking into them.
She was so lost in them, she couldn't even react as he leaned in and locked his lips on hers.
The moment was over before it even began, and Lucy widened her eyes.
"I won't do that again until you say so. Alpha or not, you can't go around telling me, you don't feel anything. That you can't be a Luna." He leaned his forehead against hers.
"I have no idea who those people are. Why they are chasing you. But you are a part of my pack now. Luna, Alpha or just a girl. I won't let anyone hurt you, Lucy Heartfillia."
He whispered, as a promise, as the night sky lit up with the tails of meteors, flying through the universe.
