My Troubled Angel *A Nalu Story*

Chapter 16

*Lucys POV*
Me and levy enter the bathroom and there they all are, waiting for me in a circle.
"What'd we come in here for guys?" I asked nervously. It was quiet, no one spoke, for a while at least.

"Lucy" Erza spoke up grabbing my attention.
"Why didn't you tell us" she continued as she looked up at me with tears eyes, they all did. They all had tears that were seconds away from falling.

"Before my father took Michelle back to the orphanage, he... well he threatened me... saying if I ever told anyone" my breath was shaking, tears threatening to fall just like the rest of my friends. They looked at me anxious for the answer.

"He would take her away from me forever, meaning not just now but for the rest of my life" I cried falling onto my knees.

"I love her so much, my mom told me to protect her, but I failed. She's my sister, my little sister for gods sake and I failed to protect her!" I cried. My friends huddled around me tears silently falling.

I can't believe I thought they would leave me, they really are my true friends.

"I'm sorry I never told you guys, I was just scared" I sniffled.
"How long has this been going on Lucy" Lisanna said.
"A few days after my mom died"
"Hasn't it been years since your mom died" Cana said raising an eyebrow. I nodded my head.
"Well that settles it" Mira said walking out of the bathroom. We all looked at the door wondering what she was taking about.

We were all on the floor enjoying the silence, Mira soon came back and when we asked what it was about she just smiled and shrugged.

They continued to ask questions and even had ideas about somethings like getting Michelle back and all. I confessed about me cutting myself too. It did not end well.

They were all screaming at me and lecturing me saying their no longer going to believe my stories or "clumsiness" and are going to keep an eye on me.

We were ready to leave the bathroom when suddenly someone busted in...... Natsu.

"Natsu what are you doing this is a girls bathroom!" Erza screamed ready to hit Natsu.
"I don't care!" He said walking towards me and snatching me away from my friends. I don't know why, but he seemed angry, furious even.

"Our table is over there" I said pointing to the table me and my friends were at.
"I don't care, we're leaving and going somewhere else" he said dragging me outside. Before my friends were completely out of sight and sound I heard someone yell.
"I'm sorry Lucy!"...Mira I should've known.

Natsu and I were now in his car, his hands were gripping the wheel tightly that his knuckles turned white.

"So What did Mira tell you" I ask starting a conversation, I feel like I already know what its about to be honest because it's the same reaction they had. Only he's angrier.

"Natsu can you please talk to me" i say as I reach out for his hand.
"Don't touch me, not now at least" he said in a serious tone with his eyes on the road. I took my hand back and looked out the window when my phone started ringing.

It was my father... and Natsu noticed.
"Don't answer it" He said with angry tone. I did what he said, but the phone continued to ring over and over again. I was about to answer the 5th call when Natsu spoke again.

"Don't answer it" this time he said it with gritted teeth.
"But if I don't he won't stop calling" I said ready to press the green button... wait... why am I even thinking about answering it. Well it was to late now since I already pressed it.

"Dad"
"Where the hell are you! School ended 3 hours ago! You should be home or can't you at least text me!"
"Don't blame me, you wanted me to get out of my room and I did!"
"For school only! Not to hang out with your friends or that boyfriend of yours that probably doesn't even love you!" He yelled through my phone loud enough for Natsu to hear. This is not going to end well.

Natsu grabbed my phone and then... FaceTimed my dad. Welp! My dad answered and was now phone screen to face with Natsu. Natsu parked his car before he started talking to my dad or arguing I should say.

"I love your daughter more than you ever loved her!" He said as he grabbed my chin and kissed me in front of my dad or phone.
"Lucy Ashley Heartfilia! You break up with this boy this instant! He's a bad influence!"
"Like your one to talk" Natsu said parting our kiss.
"I will report you to the police for kidnapping her!"
"I will report you for abusing her!" They're bickering continued for who knows how long, as I tried to contain myself from laughing. You have to admit it was a bit funny.

"Lucy!" Natsu yelled pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Don't yell I'm right here"
"Move In with me"
"What!" Both me and dad screamed.
"Lucy don't you dare, I am your father and I say no!"
"Since when did you become my dad" I said crossing my arms. Natsu started laughing at my comment.
"Move In with him... and I won't bring Michelle back" he got both of our attention.

"If you stay with me, I'll bring her back, we'll have to move from here, but I'll bring her back to you" tears were threatening to spill from my eyes once again. Now I have to chose between Natsu and my friends or Michelle.

"You can chose that... or you can see her right now if you stay with me"  Natsu said looking at me.
"What do you mean"
"Look at where were at Luce" I look out the window to see Natsu's little sister with......
"Michelle"
