Chapter Text
“Erza?!”
Lucy jumped when Natsu yelled next to her. She turned to look at him, panicking and trying to cover his mouth with her hands.
“The one you like is Erza?!”
“Natsu shut up–” She began, glad that everyone in the guild was fighting. At least no one was paying attention to them.
“What? No, you need to tel her, that's–”
“Natsu.” She interrupted him. He stopped teasing her when he saw how nervous she seemed. He felt a pang of guilt in his chest, she looked really scared. He hadn't meant to hurt her...
“I'm sorry, Luce. I won't tell her, I promise.”
She smiled weakly and squeezed one of his hand, thanking him quietly.
“One day I'll tell her.” She explained.
Natsu nodded. He laughed when Lucy went back to staring at Erza.
“You have weird taste though.”
She watched Erza holding Laxus and Elfman with one hand while trying to break Gajeel's arm with her other one.
“I know.” She sighed dreamily.
