Kill Me or Give Me Life.

Chapter 2: A dead tree of life.

Lucy's (POV)

Three months, twelve days, seventeen hours...

Natsu has been gone for Three months, twelve days and seventeen hours.

The question is why? Why Is he gone?

Nobody knows. I miss him he was someone close to me. He was my partner.

He left without saying goodbye. Just a note.

Natsu Dragneel is dead.

My heart aches. Did I love him? Was he more than just a simple partner?

I may never know. I lost my chance. Instead if pity dating random guys I should've been trying to figure out my feeling's for him.

"Lucy?" A female voice asked.

"Yeah." I Replied turning to look at Erza.

"Gray and I are going on a job are you coming?" She asked.

"No, I'll pass."

I stood up and walked towards the exit. Just then the door swung open. Who ever it was wore a hood. If I cared I would've stuck around to see who it was. I wanted to go home so I just pretended they weren't even there.

Gray's (POV)

Lucy hasn't been the same since Natsu left. She is distant and always pushing us away.

She's gotten thinner and dark circles have formed around her eyes.

Lately I've been noticing marks on her arms. She tries to cover them with long sleeves but I can still see them time to time.

I confronted her about it but she denied it. How do I help her?

It's almost like she's broken.

As she left a hooded character entered the guild. They turned their head to look at Lucy.

This feeling that I'm getting off this guy is strange.

The stranger walked towards the bar and got Mira's attention. Mira's eyes widened as the person whispered to her. She nodded and led the person into the back, probably to see Mokarov.

Just a few moments after...

Silence...

Not a single word uttered. Not a movement made. Just breaths being taken.

Finally I cleared my voice and spoke.

"Natsu."

"It's been a while Frosty." he smirked.

Lucy's (POV)

I know it's wrong but to me it feels right. Pain... Feels good to me. It's the only feeling I have now. So I savor it.

I scraped the blade across my arm and butterflies formed in my stomach. The stinging feeling is what excites me.

I set the knife down and I watched closely as the fresh cut began to bleed.

"Blood is such a pretty color."

I repeated the process a few more times.

I started to feel drowsy and the darkness took me.

Sweet darkness.......

Life is like fire when you try to make an effort you get burned therefore,  I'll just remain here... In the cold.

Natsu's (POV)

"So your not dead." Gray stated.

"Yeah, sorry about that note. I was pretty mad back then."
