The votes on the second and third chapter are really different😂

~Lucy's POV

Just a few more days and Natsu will return. That Clarissa girl...

Yeah...

I don't like her...

She went to check on me for a second time and then left as quickly as she came. And if she talked, she would insult me. I didn't even try to argue back, just rolled my eyes and went on with my life.

I didn't tell Natsu. I didn't want to distract him nor worry him.

It was afternoon and I was lazily scrolling through Wattpad. I would definitely recommend this if you like reading. My whole library is so full.

Nash came running downstairs. "Mum, can you help me with history?" he asked smiling.

I looked at him and my eyes widened slightly. "You are six. People who are six should learn what 5x5 is." I stated. Why the hell was he doing history?

"25. Everything is so easy, so the teacher said I could learn things I want to learn. I chose history!" Nash cheered happily. Gosh, I didn't even know my own son was that smart.

"Alright," I began, "Let me take a look at your history book."

He handed me his book and first I began to watch the topic. Second World War. Ooh, tough subject, for a six year old kid... I think. "What is your question about it, sweetheart?" I asked, smiling gently.

He shrugged, "I understand it, I just don't understand why he did it."

With 'he' Nash probably meant Adolf Hitler... The man who began it.

"Well, what do you already know about the second World War?" And to be honest, I just expected him to say something like 'people began fighting each other with guns...'

Something like that... but Jesus, I was totally wrong.

"Uhh... The second World War started on the first of September in 1939 when Germany invaded Polan. France and the United Kingdom declared war right after. Germany formed an alliance with Italy and our country, Japan. When Japan launched an attack at the USA, they declared war with us too. And other things too, but I wouldn't want to bore you with it."

I surely had by now already dropped my jaw. Even I didn't know that and I had history for six years before I ran away!! I swear Nash was scaring me with his knowledge.

I had to read the book to make sure he said everything right... and he did.

I looked at him smiling. "Please stay a kid," I said while blinking sweetly.

He laughed and shook his head... too cute. "Which religion suffered the most?"

He stood there thinking for a moment. "Judaism," he answered shortly. I sighed, he already knows too much for his age.

"And do you agree?"

He wildly shook his head.

"Why should I, mother? He forbid people to believe in the God they had. He wasn't thinking about a major part of them. He was selfish, wanting power."

I smiled at him and unconsciously took him in my arms. "You better stay this way," I said softly. I placed one hand on his chest and the other on his head. "Don't just follow your heart or your head. Find a great balance between the two."

He didn't say anything after that,  only nodding slightly.

I checked the time and sighed. Everytime that girl would check on me at 3:00 pm. So like I expected she came in. I don't know how, but she had a spare key of this house. I should ask Natsu about it because I don't feel safe knowing she has a key.

She came in and checked for the millionth time. She saw me and Nash hugging. "Hey there, Nash," she said smiling.

I dropped my jaw again. She is kind towards Nash but not towards me?

"Yo Lucy. Get me some snacks, will ya?" Clarissa said. I raised an eyebrow in progress.

"I am in the position to deny your order. So no," I said with authority. Natsu rubbed it on me. She sighed, "Fucking stupid wife of Natsu," she muttered under her breath.

I don't think I was supposed to hear it. "Excuse me?" I asked offended. She insulted me in front of my son.

I turned to Nash for a second. "Nash, can you please go to your room? I will come later." He nodded and sprinted upstairs.

"What have I ever done to you?" I asked with anger in my eyes. She looked at me, clearly upset and angry. "Natsu changed because of you! He isn't the same he used to be. Only because of you!" she spat at me.

"He changed for the better," I said and clenched my hands.

We took some steps to each other. Both trying to intimidate each other. I may be a little afraid, but I've had enough of those insults. "Watch who you are talking back to," she warned me and I had to laugh at the audacity.

"You should watch it. I can tell Natsu and he will make sure to rip you to apart," I threatened, though I wasn't even considering telling him. He has his own problems, I won't want to add something to it.

Her eyes twitched so much from disbelief and hatred. "I tried to stick up with you, but we clearly aren't on the same line! You maybe are my Lady, but I will never treat you with respect when Natsu isn't around. Tell Natsu all you want, he will believe me."

And with that she stormed out of our house. "Yeah, run away..."

"...bitch." I unclenched my hands. Why does she think Natsu will believe her?

He wouldn't, right?

It looked like Clarissa has some sort of connection with Natsu. I would figure it out later. I ran to Nash's room and saw him reading a book on bed.

"What was that about, mum?" Nash asked. He seemed somehow more respectful than other days. I shrugged. "Beats me."

"Chop chop. Time for you to take a shower," I said and pushed him towards the bathroom. Nash's bedroom was a little bit smaller than my room, but still bigger than average.

He didn't put a lot of things in the room. Just a book shelf, desk, couch, bed, mirror to admire himself etc.

Nash groaned. "I don't want to." But nevertheless he still went inside and closed the door.

I rolled my eyes. "Yea, sure. I want you out between 15 minutes and don't let me hear a 'But I don't want to get out.'"

It was silent and I knew I got him.

I walked to my own room and picked my phone. I called Natsu, like everyday.

"I miss you." I whined, total other behavior than before. He chuckled. "I miss you too. But I can leave tomorrow, we made an agreement."

I felt excited, he would come home earlier. "And guess what," he said.

I began thinking, but I don't have any clue. "What?"

"I will bring food!" I laughed at his tone. So excited, so childish. He could be childish when he want to. "Nash is smart," I said and explained the history thing that I didn't even know.

He chuckled. "What can I say? He is just like me."

Now it was my time to laugh. "I don't recall you being smart."

"Tch. Lair, you know I'm smart. So, did anything special happened?"

"Oh not really. I do want to talk to you about something though, but that can wait."

Natsu raised his eyebrows immediately, paying full attention to me now instead of packing his stuff.

"Is it that important or can it wait?" He said it in a way as if to assess the level of importance.

"It can wait," I said, nodding to strengthen my point.

"Okay. Anyway, make sure to fetch me tomorrow, angel."

He has a few ways to name me.

After both saying 'I love you' we hung up. I lay on the bed and smiled. Everyday I'm reminder why I fell in love with him. I turned on the TV and soon Nash joined me, with clean clothes and wet hair.

"Mum, what would you do if I was kidnapped?" Nash suddenly asked. I was caught off guard and stared.

"You won't," I simply stated. I wouldn't let someone take him.

"But what if?" he asked again.

I turned to look at him, with a serious face. "If something like that ever happened on my watch, I would do everything I can to get you back, so will your father. No matter the sacrifices, we will get you back."

He smiled brightly. "Good, because so will I."

When I went to the Home Office I searched in Natsu's computer. Looking for any information of Clarissa, call me curious, but I know there is something behind.

Natsu trusted me enough to give me access to every device he owned.

I searched through all his files and saw nothing. I raised my eyebrow when I saw a 'Past' folder, carefully hidden between his thousands folders.

There were many documents but also lots of pictures. I scrolled through the pictures, not thinking it would be worth it to read the documents.

When my eyes finally caught sight of a familiar lady, my eyes widened.

She had an engagement ring on her finger and Natsu stood there smiling next to her.

What happened? You can't possibly marry two persons, that is against the law. Natsu said they were good friends. You can't possibly go from engaged to just friends.

I looked at the small comment on it:

Happy together!

Natsu never told me that he proposed to another woman before. But what made them cancel it?

I turned off the computer, closing my eyes tightly as if to remove the picture from my memory. The date of the picture was before he bought me.

~??? POV

"Did you do everything like I told you to?" I asked my friend.

"Yes, sir," she said and bowed lightly.

I smirked. "It is time to show Natsu Dragneel despair..." I couldn't help but to laugh.

I played with the knife in my hand, "You can go now."

When she closed the door the room was almost completely dark. I threw the knife to the wall. A perfectly happy picture of Dragneel's wedding was stuck on the wall.

The knife was precisely aimed on their kissing faces.

I smirked.
