Too Far

Lucy sighed. She kept stirring her straw around her glass, filled with pink lemonade. Mira looked at her guildmate with empathy. "Lucy..", she mumbled quietly enough so that the blonde mage couldn't hear her. Ever since her freind left, Lucy wasn't feeling very happy, neither was anyone else in the guildhall. Though,
did not stop them from having a good time, even though something was missing. Natsu. He had been gone for about a year now, but everyone believed he would come home, especially Lucy. But she was done waiting for him. After Tartoros, then during the war, and now. She needed to see him so she could see that one and only smile that always made her feel better.

This time he had gone to far. Lucy never saw Happy anymore, she missed the uninvited guests in her house, there was no one sit in the guildhall and argue with anymore. She missed Natsu. All the bad times and good times and sad times, she missed it all. She loved it all. She loved him, no matter how stupid he was for leaving her again. It was something she couldn't help and she needed to tell him. So she'll wait. She'll wait for what people say is far too long. She'll wait forever if she has to. As long as she can see his face, she knows she'll be fine.

Suddenly, the guildhall doors creak open and a sandal covered foot takes a step towards the light. Lucy's whole world was already getting brighter.
