~Natsu's POV~

I ran down the hall, waiting to see her. Lucy, I'm coming.
I ran, not many students were out so I had a clear path. I turned the corner without seeing where I was going and slammed into something. It kinda hurt as I fell onto my hands and knees.
" Ow... "I hissed and opened my eyes. There she was.
" Ow... That stings.... "the girl underneath me grumbled. She looked up at me and gasped." D-Dragneel, I-"
" Luce! "I said her name excitedly. I got up and dusted off my uncomfortable dockers and held my hand out to her." Sorry about that, I wasn't watching where I was going. "
" It is quite fine, Dragneel. "she said forcing a small smile towards me, taking my hand. I had just noticed, I had knocked all her things on the ground as she went to go pick them up.
" Luce, let me help. "I said, leaning down and picking up her binder and an Algebra book as she picked up her pencil pouch and Language book and another smaller white binder.
" Thank you very much for your kindness. "she nodded her head. She began to walk past me. This wasn't right...
I felt like a stranger to her. But I'm not!
" Wait, Luce! "I spun around and grabbed her arm making her drop all her stuff again and freeze like she was ice. Then she dropped as well." Luce? "
I saw her back hunch as her breathing became irregular. I turn her body so I could see her reddened face and tears running down her cheeks.
" I-I c-can't... Breath... "she struggled out.
" What!? "I grabbed my hair. I didn't know what to do! What was I suppose to do!?
" N-Natsu... My pencil pouch... It has my... Inhaler... "she struggled more out. I snatched her pencil pouch and unzipped it, grabbing her inhaler. I held it to her mouth and let her breath in the medicine. She slid her hands onto mine as she breathed lightly.
I sighed in relief.
" Thank God that worked... You had me so worried Luce! "I stated, a bit louder than I should have, but oh well.
" Thank you... "Lucy said as I slowly pulled away her inhaler, believing she's had enough time to recover from her attack.
" Are you alright? I didn't mean to scare you, I'm so sorry. "I said, rubbing her back with my other hand.
" No, I'm sorry... I just remembered something and it scared me. It wasn't your fault. "she said, making a small smile.
" Luce... You said my name just now. "
" I did... Because I knew it'd grab your attention quicker. "
" Why do you greet your friends with formalities? We're friends, aren't we? "
Sue staid silent, looking down.
" I must. It's a way to prove I am a true Heartfillia-"
" Stop it. "I said, angered.

~Nobody's POV~

Lucy lifted her head to look at Natsu fully. His eyes were angered making her bite her lip.
" Stop with all the formalities, no one doubts you are a Heartfillia. Who are you trying to prove to? Yourself? You're Lucy Heartfillia, born from a respected family, one of the most richest in the country. But you're also Luce, a kindhearted, lovable friend who's funny, smart, clumsy, and so much more to her friends than she can think. "Natsu said." The friend I always clung to when we were younger, and you'd always cling to me. We'd cry and laugh... Where has my Luce gone? "
Lucy staid silent a bit more, taking in everything he said.
" I'm afraid 'Luce' is buried away. She no longer exists. There's only Lucy Heartfillia... "she said taking a deep breath.
" So then... Or friendship was nothing to you... An insect on your shoulder you just swipe away. "Natsu glared.
" That's not what I-! "
" Shut up! I don't want to speak to Lucy Heartfillia, who's selfish and lonely! She only thinks of herself and not others! "Natsu held in his breath then let out a sigh." Tell me when Luce returns, I and everyone else really miss her... "
