Natsu's POV

     I sat on the couch my brain scrambling to figure out my feeling for Lucy.
        'It's just in few days ive been so close to her I don't feel so cold and grumpy. It's like her being in my presence is making me happy again.           
        After our parents died Lucy completely shut me out and wouldn't talk to me, hell she barely talk to her friends. Me on the other hand became cold and rude towards everyone. With the the few exceptions of some friends I was a dick to everyone.
          I rejected all love confessions while in school. I quit the basket ball team because I just couldn't stand be near people. With out Lucy I didn't care, I just wasn't happy.
       Over the years I've become a cocky bastard, doing whatever I could to be on top. I would go out to parties and get so shit face and take any girl home. The next day i would freak out and kick her out.
       That's how I turned out. I'd work out, try and beat Lucy in our businesses, then party.
        I honestly don't recall when I started hatin her actually I don't think I ever hated her. It was more of a way to try and get her to notice me. Eventually I lost hope and she became just my enemy I couldn't Stand the idea of losing to her.
         But that damn day she pulled me in, I could've damn we'll ratted on her and walk away why didn't I? Her eyes were filled with sadness and fear and for some reason I guess I cared that day.
         I don't know if I regret it or if I'm loving it. I know I'll regret it when the trips over and I'll only see her in meeting.
       But then there the part of loving that I got to be her pretend fiancé, seeing her smile and laugh again. It's been so long since I've seen her smile.
         Now I can't even get her off my mind damn it! Why Luce, why do make me go crazy, why can't you see how much I still love you... Idiot.'
        I was pretty zoned out, I was drooling and my eye lids were half closed when I finally snapped out of my thoughts. I turned around to see Lucy sitting on the bed with a pen in her hand and she was writing.
       I slowly stood up off the couch and walked over to her. I sat down beside her, leaning on my arm as I try and see what's she's writing about.
       "Do you mind?" She asks me while setting down the pen.
      "I was trying to see what you were writing about." She crossed her arms and huffed. "No way you ain't reading it" my eyebrows stitched together. "And why not?!" "Because!" She yelled back sittin straight up so her eyes were level with mine.
        A hint of pink flashed across my face at her closeness. I'm guessing she noticed because I watched her cheeks turn red then she quickly looked away.                
         "You used to let me read them in highschool.. Actually you'd read them to me" I said in a low tone, looking away from her. I her sigh deeply. "Just have to bring up the past huh?" "Well there were times where the past was good... Then it turned to this." "Natsu please just drop it.."
        I turned and faced her, shifting so my whole body was pointed towards her and my legs were crossed.
        "Why? Why should I drop it? Hmm? Cause you know what, i would actually really like to know why you pushed me away." I said hearing my tone raise.
        "Why you ask? Because I lost my parents if if wouldnt have been for that day id still be happy and have a family and-"
      I ended up cutting her off yelling at her. "You know what Lucy, I don't know if it ever occurred to you but you're not that only damn one who lost their parents that day! I lost my mom and dad and two great people who I loved dearly.
       And lastly I lost you damn it! You were the only person who understood how' I was feelin, the only I had left I that considered my family, the only person I had left to love.
       But you.. You pushed me away and ignored me and acted like I was nothing. Do you know how that affected me too Luce, do you!?
        I was depressed over the lose of my parents and on top of that the girl I loved. You fucked you own life Lucy, I tried to be the for you and you just just.. What ever.
       Damn I need some air" I muttered as I got off the bed.
      As I went to walk out of the room and saw her crying then pull her knees up to her face. 'Great I made her cry..' I walked up to the roof top and sat down on the side.
       "DAMN IT!!!"
    I yelled punching the ground beside me. "I fucked it up!!  Why did I say all those horrible thing to her. Damn it..." I mustard back the tears. Thinking of my parents death and the past and Lucy crying just now took it all out of me. 
      See there way me being cold hearted again. Classic Natsu, the dick head.

Lucy's POV

      I sat there on the bed crying. Natsu's never yelled at me like that and to bring up the loss of our parents... I haven't cried about the accident in a while but now I just can't stop cryin.
       I kept wiping my eyes but the tears wouldn't stop. I don't understand him.. Natsu, he was just sitting on the couch in silence for the past few hours. Wait! Was he thinking about that the whole time? I don't get why he'd even bring it up if he was just gonna yell at me!
          I slowly crawled off the bed and walked into the bathroom; I turned on the sink and washed my face.  I looked at my red puffy face and sighed. "Jeez Lucy crying over an idiot..." I wiped my face off with the hand towel then went back to the bed.
        I grabbed the pencil and started writing again. After about an hour had gone by I finally heard the hotel door open. I watch as Natsu slowly walked in, he was breathing heavily and sweaty.
       I guess that why he was gone so long he must of went for a run. I heard him plop down on the couch and let out a sigh. This must be really awkward plus the dead silence doesn't really help much.
        "It's about a princess who was saved by a dragon" I spoke up. "The story I'm writing.." {as children they played princess and dragon} "oh yeah? What's happens?" He spoke quietly.
      I stood up and walked over to where he was sitting and motioned for him to scoot over. He did so then I sat beside him and opened up my journal.
       "Well long ago humans and dragons lived in peace, until one day a rouge dragon attacked the queen. A war broke out between the two beings."
       I slowly turned the page, noticing Natsu looked intrigued.
       "Over the course of three years the war slowly died down but barriers were everywhere and the nations never made peace.
       The princess, the one whose mother was killed was lonely due to her father being away at war. To protect her, her father sent her far away and locked her away in a tower.      
       The tower had powerful spells enchanted to keep dragons out. The girl grew slowly grew up only with her one friend named Plue. A little oddly shaped doggy.
       One day ten years later, a boy seeking shelter falls upon her tower. He was a human but also a dragon, a fire dragon that is. Due to his humanoid traits the barrier had no affect on him.
       He flew up the tower and wondered about the room. Little did he know a princess was there. A nice meeting would have been nice, but instead the poor dragon was startled to death by a girl screaming "dragon!" And throwing books, pots and pans, or anything solid."
      I started to close the journal. "Sorry I guess I started giving more than a summary of sorts" I chuckled a bit.     
      "But what happens next?" I looked over at the pinky next to me who was staring deeply at my journal. "Well it's not really written yet." "Oh, what are you going to write?" I laughed "Natsu"
        "What I wanna know, it kind seems like a déjà vu moment." As soon as he said that heat rushed to my cheeks. 'Oh my god he doesn't remember that does he?'
        "Oh? maybe you dreamt it or ... What the hell happened to your hand!?" I yelled noticing it was all bloody. "Oh I.. Uh punched the roof earlier.." "Why on earth would you do that Baka!"
       I said as I stood up to go get the first aid kit. "Because.. I yelled at you .. And made you cry" he said softly but loud enough for my ears to catch.  "N-Natsu-" "I'm sorry Lucy, I don't know came over me."
       I sat down beside him taking he injured hand in mine while I started to wipe it clean. "You don't need to apologize, you just startled me that's all.." I poured some disinfectant on his hand and he yelped.
       "Sorrry" I said as I scrunched my face from his look of pain. I slowly wrapped a bandage around his hand then pinned it. "There ya go" "thanks" "I'm sorry too.." Might as well apologize too.
       "I've been ignorant towards your feeling about our parents , gomenasai." I could hear my voice crack. I looked down at my eyes on my lap before closing my eyes tightly as if I might cry again if I don't.
      Suddenly I felt a warm gentle hand pressed against my cheek, a thumb slowly brushed along the corner of my lips.
      I opened my eyes, blinked then slowly looked up at Natsu. He was wearing the most sincere smile I've seen in who knows how long. I could feel a small smile tugging at my lips.
      My heart rate slowly increasing as our body's subconsciously lean towards each other. My eyes slowly closed, my worries seemed to float away, and my body seemed to be melting into his.
           "Meeeeooooow!"
     It startled me and Natsu, causing us to jumped apart. "H-happy!" "Mew?" I laughed nervously and stood up. "Are you hungry?" He started running around crazily so I pulled some fish out and let him have it.
        "Damn cat.. Always seems to be there..."{just image happy saying you liiiike her at these moments} I could hear Natsu whispering something but I couldn't make it out.
       "Goodnight Natsu" I told him as I cuddled into bed. "Night Luce" "if the couch gets too hard... You can lay on the far right side of the bed." I muttered loud enough to hear.
       "Alright" I could hear him chuckle before falling into a deep sleep.
