Chapter Three: Tenacious
Tenacious: tending to keep a firm hold of something; clinging or adhering closely.
A/N: School had been a hassle for me to even write anything for couple of my stories and it sucks. I actually had a short nervous breakdown to where I started to clean my room instead of studying for a test that I had in a couple of hours (-_-) zzz
Well, Anyway, I'm alive and was able to write this story xD
Please enjoy? 😢
Erza quickly made her way back to the hospital as soon as she got the call. She didn't even bother changing out of her funerl dress. As soon as she hung up the phone, she reached for the keys and literally ran out of the house, slamming the door behind her, not bothering locking the door, and ran to her car.
Hastily turning the car on, and buckling herself, Erza carefully and quickly dorve to the car. She soon yelled out in rage as there was traffic, making her more amgier and anxious. She wanted to see her girlfriend's smile...and she also wanted to comfort her when she tell her the news...
Tightening her grip on the wheel as she drove, Erza was more worried to how Lucy would deal with Levy's and Gajeel's deaths. Or the real reason of the car accident.
10 minutes later, Erza found herself at the hospital and hasilty parked the car and locked the car before running into the building and through the hallways that she was so familiar with, as she had walked through many times.
As she was nearing the door of her girlfriend's hositpal room, she saw couple of nurses talking and conversing with each other while standing in front of the door. Erza walked toward them, hoping that they would move out of the way so she could she Lucy's smile again.
For two weeks...Erza had wanted to see that smile that she had fallen in love with. Pictures and videos of Lucy's smiles was not enough to convince Erza that Lucy will be okay...and it was not enough to help her through the day while the blonde laid still in the hospital.
Now in front of the doctors, one of them took notice of the redhead and gave her a look of pity before turning to the other doctor before excusing herself and walked away.
The remaining doctor sighed a little before turning to Erza. "Hello miss Scarlet."
"Can you move? I need to see Lucy." Erza spoke, not wanting to have some talk. She wanted to see her girlfriend the most. It was her top priority.
"Before we let you see her, I need to tell you something."
"Can it wait?"
The doctor sighed a little, ignoring her question. "Your friend, as a result of a serious head injury and a two week coma, she had suffered some amnesia."
The wind was almost knocked out of Erza as she heard those words. She stared at the doctor with wide eyes. Heart thumping from the fear of being forgotten. "H-How much does she remember?"
"We asked her some questions once she woke up. After couple of questions, we soon realized she had lost some years. But we were unable to conclude how much she lost. She had a panic attack and was thrashing around and we were forced to put her to sleep."
The more Erza heard from the doctor, the more she has to restrain from pushing the doctor away. After the doctor had finished explaining things, she took a deep breath and clenched her fists. "Can I see her?"
"Yes you can, but just be sure to..." The doctor trailed off as he was gently pushed to the side as Erza walked in the room. He sighed a little before walking off to do his other duties.
When Erz opened the door, she immesisted noted how ruffled the blankets were, and knew that Lucy was thrashing around. But right now, she looked peaceful as she slept. Erza took a seat next to her bed and took Lucy's hand into hers.
Erza stared at Lucy's sleeping face as she began to converge possible scenarios of when Lucy lost her memories and she could had forgotten. Whether it was a serious one, a moderate one, a minor one, or a permanent injury, Erza was afraid of each of every one of them.
In Erza's opinion, her worst fear is that Lucy won't remember that they are dating. Or maybe that they haven't even met yet. Erza is afraid to know what her little girlfriend remembers.
Erza continued to hold Lucy's hand and closed her eyes, bringing forth the fondest memory that she has since she met the blonde girl. She needed something to calm her down. Sometime to reassure her that everything will be okay.
...
It was the prettiest night tha Erza had concluded as she spent it with the one that she had fell for. Lucy and her had decided to go on a little night out with each other to escape the craziness of their friends and family and just to hang out with each other. Erza was beyond happy to stay with Lucy alone and have her all to herself. She wouldn't have it any other way.
The blonde gently leaned against her with a smile smile. Erza sported a larger smile and wrapped her arms around the blonde girl.
They both shared a contented sigh with as they leaned against each other and stared at the starry night in the park. Erza honestly was never the type of person to just look up at the sky...but it held more meaning as she stared at the sky with her beloved. Looking at the sky together is more romantic, and you're not alone when you're looking up. She turn her gaze to the blond and stared at her with a smile on her face.
Lucy soon took notice of Erza gazing at her and turned to the redheaded woman. "Is there something on my face?"
Erza smiled and tugged Lucy closer to her. "I was just looking at the most prettiest thing in the world."
Lucy soon blushed at what she meant. "You're cuter...'
Erza smiles and blushed a little before moving her hands to Lucy's cheek and stroked them as she pulled the blonde closer to her. "You're my goddness."
Lucy continues to blush as she stared at the chocolate orbs of her lover. "You're my whole world."
Erza smiles even more and leaned in to gently kiss Lucy. The younger girl gladly returned the kiss, wrapping her arms around the strong body of the redhead.
After a minute of soft kisses between the two lovers, Erza was the first to pull back, and rested her forehead on Lucy's, opting to stare at Lucy. "I love moments like these."
Lucy smiled too and kept her arms around Erza's waist. "Me too."
"I love you, my little Princess." Erza smiled and moved her hands to Lucy's cheek and stroked it.
"I love you too, my knight." Lucy smiled and tightened her grip on the older woman.
Erza smiled before pushing the blonde to lay on the ground and hovered over the young girl and stared at the girl. Lucy blushed a little, but moved her arms and wrapped them around Erza's neck and stared at her in the eyes.
"You're the most perfect girl I could come across, and I will forever cherish the moments that we have...and I will never forget them." Erza spoke as she looked down on her lover.
Lucy blushed and smiles as she tugged Erza closer to her. "And you are the person that I had fallen in love with. The person that I can relate to. You are the person that I want to spend my life with."
Erza smiles before dipping her head down to kiss the young girl passionately.
Lucy eagerly kissed back and entangled her fingers in Erza's hair.
After a few more intense kisses, Erza pulled back and panted a little and looked at Lucy. "I love you so much, Lucy."
Lucy slightly panted a little and smiles at the redheaded woman. "I love you more."
Erza smiled before laying next to her on a pile of grass and looked at the sky, moving her hand to Lucy's and intertwined their fingers. Lucy smiled at the gesture and moved closer to Erza while looking at the sky.
"The sky is filled with such pretty stars." Lucy mumbled.
Erza heard her and turned to Lucy. "The most prettiest star that lights my world is already by my side...and she lights my world."
Lucy blushed at those cheesy words and turned to face her girlfriend. "You give me meaning to live."
Erza smiles and tightens her grip on Lucy's hands and wrapped her arms around the blonde. "Want to know the scariest thing ever?"
"What is it?" Lucy snuggled into Erza's warmth.
"Losing you. Everyday when I wake up, from the moment I met you, I was afriad of losing you. And I'm still am." Erza confessed while stuffing her face in Lucy's neck.
Lucy was silent for a second before kissing Erza's forehead. "I won't go anywhere. And I don't want to lose you either."
Erza smiles and hugs Lucy tighter. "You're mine, and mine alone."
Lucy chuckles before moving Erza's chin up so she could face her. "And you're mine and mine alone."
Erza smiles and kisses Lucy on the lips again.
While that Erza knew that they will not leave each other, she was still afriad of other things. But Erza will not focus on what could happen. She will focus on what is happening right now. And that is Lucy giving her the happiness that she hadn't felt in so long. She wants to focus on the light of her world and give her everything that could make her happy.
Erza will do anything to make sure she doesn't lose Lucy.
...
Life is unpredictable. Erza knew that much. But she never knew that Lucy could lose her memories. She never took that into account.
With a soft sigh, Erza reopened her eyes and looked at the sleeping blonde that remained asleep in the hospital bed.
"I won't lose you Lucy. Not now or ever."
