Epilogue: Positive

Natsu's POV
I open my eyes, receiving a boom of light shine down on me. I was wearing my black zipped up vest, baggy white pants, and black flat sandals. (His original anime clothes) I start standing up from the ground that I was laying on. Only to see a huge three story building with the name of the gym. 'Fairy Tail'. I quickly squint my eyes, asking myself what had happened with Lucy. I remember being shot on the day of our wedding, she was crying so much. 'A bride should never cry sadly in her wedding...' I thought. To find her, I started walking up to the building.

-Natsu: "What is this place...." The laughs are so loud, I can hear it out here. I open the doors and see a huge barrel on my way. I quickly dash out of the way only to hear an angry woman.

-Cana: "I WANT MORE BEER!" The familiar Cana yells. I squint my eyes at the sight of all of my friends. Everyone was here. Before I could ask anyone what was going on, gramps calls me.

-Makarov: "Natsu, come to my office." Everyone was here, except for Lucy of course. I need to see her. I start feeling anxious but quickly dash into the office that gramps directed me to. When I shut the door, he motions me to sit on the chair in front of his desk which I do. Confused. "Natsu, you must have many questions."

-Natsu: "Wheres Luce gramps!" I shout, only thinking about her. He shut his eyes and sighed.

-Makarov: "Natsu, you're the only one that could know that. This isn't real." He says as he opens his eyes and looks down on me. "You've seen this in dreams. This place is called Earthland, not Earth. Fairy Tail, this is your sanctuary Natsu." I squint my eyes, curious.

-Natsu: "Why am I dreaming...?" Again, he sighs.

-Makarov: "You're in a--"

Lucy's POV

-Dr. Renalds: "--coma. He's the only one that can decide if he will come back or not. I am terrible sorry, Mrs. Dragneel." He says in a normal tone. He must be used to telling these things. Almost two weeks have passed since the incident. We were moved back to Fiore so everyone could be here for him. They had him on hold, because the injury wasn't 'life or death like' . How dare they say such a thing? It's a bullet to the back that passed through his lungs, of course it's a matter of life or death! So that he couldn't die, they made a way for him to breathe better by putting some type of needle in his lungs. They had him on hold for a week and a half, until they took him in for surgery. And now, he fell into the deep and heartbreaking coma. My eyes were filled with tears at the thought of seeing him on a bed practically lifeless.

-Lucy: "A-alright..." My voice cracks as soon as the word gets out. "Can I see him?" I ask and you notice the sadness in my voice. He nods his head, and starts making way through the hallways. Everyone was here on the first days he was taken but now me and Igneel are the only ones staying here alot. Mostly me since he has to work but when he has the chance to come, he always does.

Three days after the wedding, my father had gone. I felt so alone now, only having Igneel by my side isn't really enough. Erza, Gray, and Wendy came by and left flowers everyday but didn't really have the time to sit here and stay with him. I brought everything from the house here with me. It was heartbreaking to enter the empty Heartfilia house, well not really empty. The maids and butlers are still there but it just feels lifeless without daddy there.

Since I can't bring animals here, I had to leave Happy to Macao who was still working at Natsu's house and Plue was at home being taken cared of by Virgo. After walking for so long, we finally arrived at the heavy door that opened slowly. Revealing my pink haired husband lying there, like I imagined. Lifeless. "Thank you, Dr. Renalds." I say as I enter the new room with my bags and blankets. Natsu had a different room when we had arrived here and changed it after the surgery. I drop the bags weakly, and pull the chair next to his bed. I sat down with tears rolling down my cheeks. I put my hand on his, barely feeling his warmth. He was pale, he was already looking skinnier. My sadness brought me anxiety and a stomach ache. I was hurting everywhere.

But I noticed the stomach ache growing and growing until I felt practically a wave go up through my throat. 'Oh no' Is what popped in my head and I started running towards the bathroom, exposing my mouth to the toilet and letting the wave of vomit spring out. My eyes widened as to why I just threw up. 'Was the egg I ate today rotten or something?' I asked myself and just assume it is probably that. I stand up, clean my mouth and flush the toilet. Now I have that disgusting taste in my mouth. I quickly put water in it, spit it out and look for my tooth brush. Finding it, I practically scrape the toothpaste against my teeth and brush my tongue. I look up and look at my dreadful reflection. I had bags under my pink and puffy eyes, I've been getting pimples, I had to do my eyebrows, and my lips were dry. All due to the deep depression I'm in. I miss dad, I miss Natsu's voice. I just want to be in one of the arms of the men in my life. If I had dad, this pain would be less while if I had Natsu, dad's pain would also be. I look over to where the towel was to grab it and dry my face but instead, my hand lands on the sharp razor. I gaze at it and think, 'So this is the temptation people get'.

'No, Natsu doesn't want you to hurt yourself'

'But I need something or else I'll do something stupid...'

I shake all the voices away and grab it but feel pain on my chest. Dropping the blade, I land my hands on my breasts. Feeling them throb. I look in the mirror and start thinking, 'Why are my boobs growing? I've barely eaten these days'. The pain worsens and the sensitiveness increases. I scrunch my eyebrows, and think about the familiar feeling. 'No...' I've peed three times this morning... I shut my eyes and take in a deep breath.

'Alright, lets see...
Increasing boobs, check.
Vomit, check.
Pee, check.
2 weeks have passed since the plane ride...
Oh God'

Tears roll down my face again at the thought. I quickly walk out of the bathroom, grab my purse, give Natsu a kiss on the forehead, and run out of the room. I dash towards the mini pharmacy from the hospital and look for the item I've used only once in my life. When I found it, I bought it quickly with a water bottle and went back to the room, drinking the whole bottle. After a few seconds, I felt the need to pee. Which was good now. I open the box and take out the life changing stick. I went to the toilet, and proceed with the process. When I was finished, I shut my eyes and put it on the table. Hyperventilating. Many thoughts were rushing in my mind. One of them being, 'I'm not strong enough emotionally to have another miscarriage' . And I really am not. Lets sum up all the problems that have happened in my life.

1) After the death of my mother, I was abused by my father emotionally.
2) I was cheated on in my first wedding and thought my ex-husband had died.
3) My father dies after a few years of us fixing our relationship.
4) My husband is now in a coma, our wedding day being ruined.
5) And now, I have to raise a child...possibly alone.

I look at myself in the mirror once again and break down into tears. "I can't let myself do something stupid now..." I shut my eyes while my hand goes towards the stick. Once I open them and see the result, the tears continue going down.

9 months later
Like I have everyday, I take my morning walk with a bottle of water and juice. My earphones plugged in with classic music. I've worked up my gears to be a good mother. The last thing I want is another miscarriage so I've been eating healthy, I've been seeing a psychologist and I haven't been moping around. All for the sake of Nashi. She's coming like a little healthy girl. Levy comes by often to the hospital that has practically become my new home to read to her. At first she was reading very very complex books that I could barely understand but now she took animal ones. Igneel retired from his job and now I've taken over. But I've been working online. I can't have back aches or anything like that so the hospital required us two beds, one for Natsu and another for me. Erza, still came by everyday while Gray and Wendy were coming every week. I couldn't blame them, everyone was busy. Lately, I've been thinking. 'What if Natsu never wakes up? It's already been about 9 months or so...' I thought as I kept walking around on the bridge over a very calm lake until I spot a bench. Drinking my cold water, I walk over to have a nice seat. I sit down and gaze at the beautiful and soothing water. My mind wandered off into that happy state, until I realized that I was about to have a baby with only Mira and Grandine in the room. Not my husband, nor father, nor mother. I felt a tear run down my cheek but wipe it away instantly. I look down to my rather huge and round belly and start rubbing it softly.

-Lucy: "Everything will be alright, Nashi. D-daddy's strong..." I tell to the direction of my stomach as my voice cracks. I couldn't hold it in more. More tears streamed down my soft pink cheeks until I felt arms around me. My eyes widened and I instantly thought 'The last thing I need is someone to kidnap me'. But the negative thinking washed away as I saw the black longish familiar hair from a certain picture I saw. "Z-Zeref...?" As I mentioned his name, his arms tightened around my still thin back.

-Zeref: "The least I could have done for you is get this man in jail whoever he was. Forgive me...for not being there for your wedding, for not being there for him in the hospital, for not being there as your child's future uncle, for never being there for my family...I apologize sincerely..." He says, not in his monotoned voice. But with a voice that had emotion. Natsu always mentioned that he spoke without emotion. That he was practically a robot. My first impression doesn't agree with it though. My widened eyes slowly softened as I hugged him back.

-Lucy: "Its never too late to be there for us, Zeref."

~

-Zeref: "He looks...so...skinny..." He says as he gazes down at his brother's body. His slumber has really eaten him up. All of his meat was consumed.

-Lucy: "Yeah..." I say as I hold his hand softly. He starts getting up from the chair and grabs his coat. Before leaving, he turns to me and smiles slightly.

-Zeref: "Thank you for giving me the chance to see him, Lucy. I'll come back tomorrow, goodbye." I give him a wave as he opens the door and walks out, shutting it back. I turn my body back around, and look down at Natsu.

-Lucy: "Natsu...what are you waiting for to wake up..."

Natsu's POV

'Natsu...'

Echoes in my head.

'Natsu.........'

'What are you waiting for?'

'This isn't real...'

'This isn't real...'

'This isn't real...'

'This isn't real...'

'This isn't real...'

-Natsu: "THIS ISN'T REAL!" I yell before my eyes shot open, seeing a brown colored room with a tv on the wall. I felt my left leg cold from the water I was feeling. I look over, to just see the person I've been looking for. "L-Luce..." I mumble as I try to move my arm towards her but feel extremely weak. I look down at it, to see it extremely bony. As well as any other part of my body. The whimpers stop. And she slowly rises up to look at me with wide eyes.

-Lucy: "N-Natsu..." She says as tears continue to stream down her face. I smile weakly and nod.

-Natsu: "I told you, don't give up--" Before I could even finish, her arms wrapped around me. I felt warm again. I got goosebumps by her touch. Chills down my spine. I knew this was real. I kiss her neck softly.

-Lucy: "Oh my God, your voice...c-continue speaking...p-please..." She says as she separates from me and touches my lips. I scrunch my eyebrows, confused.

-Natsu: "H-how long have I been gone, Luce?" I ask, scared of the answer. But receive it anyway as I look down at her stomach. It was huge. But why?

-Lucy: "You're going to be a daddy in a few days, Natsu..." She says with her soft and sweet voice that I missed so much. 'In a few days...' I've been away, for about... "9 months."

-Natsu: "No wonder I'm so skinny..." I look back up to her face, to see her looking at another way.

-Lucy: "Nurse please come here, Natsu has awakened." She says in a relieved tone. She looks back down to me and smiles softly as tears stream down her cheeks. My eyes watered, thinking about everything I've missed.

-Natsu: "Our wedding day, Jude, I-I-I...I didn't see my love's belly g-grow. I wasn't there to talk to him or her, you must've felt so lonely..." I whimper, feeling my face turn red with countless tears streaming down. I sit up from the bed and turn to her belly with all the strength I had. I start lifting her grey baggy shirt, to see a big round like belly. The most gorgeous one. Suddenly, I felt a thump on the area where my hand laid.

-Lucy: "Huh! Sh-she's kicking!" She jumps. "Sh-she recognizes you..." She says with a shaken but happy voice. A smile creeps onto my dry lips. The kicks...it feels amazing. It feels amazing to be able to feel the actions of my daughter or son. 'Wait, daughter or son?'

-Natsu: "She...its a girl?" I ask, lifting my head up towards her to see her nodding slowly. The smile on my face widens. 'Nashi...' I grab Luce's hand and hold it tightly. "Luce, I love you. I'm going to be there for you now." She starts pulling my hand and lands it on top of her heart. I could feel it beating rapidly.

-Lucy: "I'm so happy to hear those words. It's been so long. I love you too, Natsu." Her smiling face started to change slowly, her eye started to twitch, she started getting goosebumps, her hand lets go of mine weakly.

-Natsu: "W-what's wrong?!" Her wide eyes start looking down at what seems the floor. My eyes followed hers, to see water under her. "Oh my God..." As soon as the words left my mouth, the door opened, revealing a happy nurse.

-???: "Mr. Dragneel, welcome back--"

-Natsu: "HELP HER! OUR BABY IS COMING! ...o-our baby is coming..." I mumble. 'Am I ready for this?' Interrupting my thoughts, the woman started yelling over calling for a man to carry her since I'm too skinny to. She came in rushing and tried to sooth Lucy. "C-can I enter the room with her? I'm her husband..." She looked at me and gave a rushed smile.

-???: "Of course, your bullet wound is healed. You just have to eat before entering. Here." She says as she hands me a snack bar and water which I gladly take. "I'll tell the doctor, he would only let you if it was urgent...which it is." She says as a doctor I presume comes and carries her. The nurse takes off the needle I had on and rushes out of the room behind them. As do I.

'Alright Natsu, today you're having a baby'

'Today you're having Nashi'

'Today will be the happiest day of your life'

Runs through my head as I start sweating and walking with difficulty. Apparently the nurse notices and grabs me by my shoulder before I have the worst fall of my life.

-Natsu: "Heh, sorry. It's been a while..." She just shakes her head and continues. I feel like I'm being suffocated now. All this anxiety and nervousness. I look over at the front to see Lucy suffering, sweating and yelling. "Lets walk faster to them." I tell the nurse. She nods and does it. "Luce, baby you're strong and you're going to be even stronger because you're going to see me in there with you. Now, get your shit together and lets have a baby. Yeah?" She looks over at me and smirks.

-Lucy: "Who said I didn't have my shit together Sleeping Beauty?"

-Natsu: "Your screaming, Cinderella." I say with that cocky smirk as well. She starts laughing with heavy breaths and nods enthusiastically.

-Lucy: "N-Natsu, get my phone out of my pocket and call Mira. She's the Godmother." I nod, start searching for it which I did find and start dialing her number.

-Mira: "Hey Lucy! Whats up?"

-Natsu: "Lucy's having the baby now, come to the hospital Mira!"

-Mira: "N-Natsu...?" I roll my eyes and hang up the phone. 'Great, now everyones going to be asking me alot of shit' I thought but was interrupted as we arrived at a slide door that had windows.

-???: "This is it, thank you Dr. Hakimashi." The woman helping me walk said as she pulls a rolling bed. He places her down and mumbles a 'good luck'. I gain back my balance and grab her hand.

-Natsu: "So, hows it going?" I ask her as we enter the room.

-Lucy: "Well, I'm having a baby. So, I'm fucking hurting." She says hyperventilating.

-Natsu: "Hey hey hey, breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out." I say as I kiss her sweaty forehead. She shuts her eyes and does it.

-???: "Sir, I'm going to ask you to leave unless your a family member."

-Natsu: "I'm her husband!" I yell out to him. 'Thats the second time I say that. Cool' I stay by Lucy as they take off her clothes and put a robe on her. They lift her legs and land them on top of some holders.

-Lucy: "Itscomingitscomingitscoming!" She yells rapidly. Causing my eyes to widen. The doctor injects her the serum and puts tape over it. She grits her teeth and tightens her grip around my hand. Causing me to flinch a little. 'Man I really have to eat'

-???: "Oh my God, its already coming out!" The nurse that was in between her legs yells. "Its head is coming first. C'mon push honey, push. You're doing great."

-Natsu: "You're doing amazing baby, continue." She glances at me and calms herself down. She stops yelling, and just gazes at me. Her look was satisfied, complete unlike the one I had awaken to.

-Lucy: "It's always more fun when we are together." She says tearing up, as did I. We gaze down at each other and smile like idiots.

-Natsu: "Couldn't have said it better." I say as a crying noise blurts out. Lucy's face washes over with relief. I look over to the smiling nurse that was carrying the full of blood baby.

-???: "You're a cute little pink haired girl aren't you?" She says as she walks over to us. "Here." She says as she hands us the tiny human being that had pink fluffy hair just like me.

-Lucy: "Heh not fair, I wanted her to have my nice and good hair. Not your bad and fluffy one."

-Natsu: "Not even you can spoil the moment babe." I say and she giggles. "Look at what we created." I say as I bend down to be on the same level as her. She smiles softly and sighs.

-Lucy: "If only your grandad could see you..." I look over at her and kiss her nose softly, handing the little baby to her. This little creature was created by us. Who knew that we were capable of such a thing? I sure didn't. But I do now. Nashi, she's giving me a happiness that I never thought I could experience. I believed Lucy was enough, but nothing compares to this moment. The time where I can't be selfish at all or else my family will suffer the consequences. This is the time where Lucy and I have to protect this soul mora than anything right now. Where we'll be willing to lay our lives just for this child. Just as I do, she stops crying and starts opening her eyes slowly.

-Natsu: "He's seeing her right now." I give her a reassuring smile and she gives me a satisfied one. "Thank you for not giving up on me..."

-Lucy: "Thank you for coming back to your family..."

I'll never leave you again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
