"Everything will be okay, Natsu! You're going to be okay.." blonde panicked as she kneeled down beside the boy. Her eyes began watering, she bit her lip to restrain the tears from flowing.

She stared in horror, unable to move as the blood gushed out of his wounds.

"Lucy.. I'll be okay. Don't worry so much.." He whispered with the little strength he had left.

"No.. oh, god. What do I do? What the hell do I do?!" She spoke while frantically looking around for something to stop the flow of his injury.

There was nothing. She couldn't use his scarf, it meant too much to him.

There must be another way. She thought.

"Luce.. calm down..." he whispered, his body was to weak for something more so all he could do was mutter.

He took her hand in his as he smiled weakly. His head was empty, all he cared about was to calm down the person most important to him.

"Natsu, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry this happened!" She bent to the floor as she begged. The tears fell to the ground as the sobs filled the nothingness around them.

Nothing else mattered.

"Hey... don't be stupid. I never... said it was your fault.." he coughed.

"Listen to me before I.."

"No! Don't say that! Don't you dare finishing that sentence!" Lucy yelled out as she glared at him with watery eyes. Her mind and soul felt like they were on edge. Her whole body was shaking from sheer terror for his well being. The boy sighed as he continued.

"Lucy.. without a doubt, you were the best thing that has ever happened to me. I'm so grateful to have you in my life. Thank you for being there for me and always having my back. The days we spent together were the happiest of my life.. I'll treasure those memories forever. Thank you for coming into my life. And, Lucy... I'm going to miss you, for sure.." he smiled as he spoke. Blonde held his body tightly in her arms, his words cut deep within her. She didn't want to listen to this, she barely could but..

"I promise... I'll never forget about you, so please... don't forget about me.. okay?" Few tears escaped from his eyes as he realized everything was slowly turning black all around him.

"I promise! I swear, Natsu! Please, just... don't leave..!" She shouted. Then, she glanced over his body and scanned her jacket that fell of during the fight.

"Wait here, I'll be back in a second!" She got up and ran to the piece of clothes as fast as she could. She licked it up and sprinted back to him.

She placed it on his wound and pressed hard. The blood seemed to stop after few moments. It seemed as if a rock fell off her chest.

"Natsu! The blood stopped! You're going to be-" she stared in horror. His chest didn't move, his eyes remained shut.

He was... dead, eyes fixed and vacant. Blonde crouched, one hand over his still chest. He was gone... She picked up his hand, so cold and pale, touching it to her newly wet cheek, closing her eyes for just a moment. In that eternal second she felt his presence, like the last kiss they never got to have. Her mind struggled to stay in that moment, to keep him close. The clock ticked forwards, Natsu's spirit was gone..

Lucy let out one long and blood curling scream filled with agony and despair. She dug her nails deep into the ground in distress as the tears flew like a river.

To see him dead was to die herself. There was no her without him, no life after his love. He had been her all, her reason, and existing when he no longer did cracked her mind in a way that would never heal.

-

Love and sorrow, the twins... the love comes first sweet and strong, then the sorrow that we shall never again be together in this life. I can only pray that we will be reunited in the next, that the universe would see fit to give us more time. One more chance. But for now the loss is more than my heart can take and I feel the dark clouds looming in from above to obscure the sun. If love is a divine gift then sorrow is also, for in its enormity is the proof of what used to be.

Lucy placed her pen down as she closed her book. This was the ending of her yet another beautiful and painful story. One year has past since the tragedy that struck Fairy Tail. Since the passing of one of the most valuable guild mates, her other half.. she never gave any of her stories a happy ending.
