Recap

Levy takes care of Lucy, forcing her to stay home and get rest so she will be better in time for the Winter dance this upcoming Friday.

Although, Lucy cannot stop but let her mind wander about a certain forehead kiss that may or may not have happened.

Natsu blows off steam playing basketball, when a certain cold loving teen visits him, and Natsu decides to open up about everything happening with Lisanna & Lucy.

Natsu checks up on Lucy, and brings her subway. He also promises her he will go to the nursing home for her.

Now that you're all caught up, let's see what's in store for us this chapter! :)

Natsus POV

It's now Wednesday so Lucy should be back in school today. I set out searching the halls for the beautiful blonde, but instead I find a sad white haired girl instead.

"Natsu please talk to me." She pleads.

"About what? I've told you many times I care about you, but only as a friend Lis." I say annoyed.

"Okay okay.. I get that, but why Lucy?" She asks.

I stop in my tracks.

How is it so obvious?

I turn and stare at Lisanna trying to think of a proper response.

"I've known for years that you liked her. you'd always get up and walk away when you see her, just to pull a prank on her. Your eyes would light up for a girl that keeps her head in a book and doesn't talk to anyone, but then me.. who's been by your side for years through some really hard times.. you only see me the same as everyone else. It makes me so mad." She rants out to me.

I still stand there looking in her angrily filled eyes that were about to burst with tears.

"I-" I start to talk but she continues

"So yes I tripped her on the ice! I admit it, but please just forgive me and give me another chance I know I could make you happy." She cries.

Just then, the group followed behind her as she confessed.

"Lis-Chan.. you tripped me? On purpose?" Lucy asks shocked.

"Lisanna how could you do that?" Erza demands.

"Bunny girl doesn't deserve that." Gajeel says while holding Levy back from pouncing on Lisanna.

Lisannas built up tears finally burst, and she sets off running.

I look over at Lucy, she had the most depressingly hurt look on her face. My heart sank when she said,

"Sorry guys, but I just need to be alone right now."

I watch her walk away, and I so badly wanted to chase after her but my feet wouldn't move.
