You Don't Have To Try: Chapter 3 (NaLu)

{Get you on
Don't be shy, girl
Take it off
This is what you want,
to belong,
so they like you
Do you like you?}

-Still in the Nurse's office-

Lucy's POV:

BANG! I sat up immediately from the sudden bang, hitting my head on something in the process.

"OWWWW, LUCY!" Someone shouted. My eyes came to focus as I saw Natsu sitting down on the corner of the bed. A searing pain came across my head. I put my head in my hands.

"Lucy? What's wrong? Should I get Mirajane?" Natsu said worriedly and started jumping about. I waved my hand to say that I was fine. There was a moment of silence and then I lifted my head to glare at him.

"NAATTTSSSUUUU! YOU SCARED ME! DID YOU HAVE TO BE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME WHEN I SAT UP?! AND WHAT WAS THAT BANG?!" I screamed at him, I was breathless when I finished shouting at him. He put his hands in front of him in defence and sweatdropped.

"Ahaaa. Ha.. Ha…" He laughed nervously and pointed to a broken vase by the table. I shook my head and facepalmed. My eyes drifted to the window and it looked like a sunset. Exactly how long have I been asleep?

"Hey, Natsu. What time is it?" I asked, turning to look at Natsu.

"Well, the clubs just finished so I guess its around five thirty?" He said, looking upwards to think. I smiled gently, all of my anger fading away. I would never hold a grudge against him for long. He stared at me cluelessly. For about what seemed like forever but in reality was only a minute we looked into each other's eyes. We broke out of our trance when Mirajane walked in with a cup of tea.

"Oh, Lucy! You're up? I brought some tea in case you woke up" Mirajane smiled.

"What's wrong?" She said, seeing our flushed faces.

"Sigh...Nothing's wrong. It's just, Natsu had a little accident" I said, sighing. Natsu sat up.

"YOU'RE MAKING IT SOUND LIKE I HAD AN ACCIDENT LIKE ASUKA OR A KID WOULD" He shouted, puffing out his cheeks. Mirajane laughed.

"You two are like a married couple" She smiled, bringing her hands to her cheeks.

"WE'RE NOT" We both shouted at the same time. Natsu stood up immediately.

"Seee. You're in sync" She giggled and started cleaning up the vase that was in pieces on the floor. She handed me my tea as I took it, sighing. Mirajane started dusting it into a plastic bag and threw it away.

"Sigh...I'll pay for the vase" I said, reaching for my bag. Mirajane simply took the bag further away from me and shook her head.

"It was an accident after all" She smiled and hung my bag on the coat rack.

"You two should really be getting home soon though. It's getting late" Mirajane suggested. Natsu just shrugged. I nodded and smiled.

"I'll be going home now. I feel much better" I lied. My head was actually throbbing and my whole body was aching.

"Then you two should go home now" Mirajane smiled and sat down at her desk. Natsu handed me his coat, grabbed both of our bags and stood at the door.

"I'll walk you home, Luce" He said, grinning. For some reason, it tugged at my heart strings. Urgh. Get a better taste in boys, heart.

"See. Married couple, right there" Mirajane said smiling.

"WE'RE NOT A MARRIED COUPLE!" We both shouted, in sync, again.
