This is my first story, so please enjoy! I'll try to make it better.

Birds chirping, summer breeze, laying in the shade of a big tree. It was the perfect day for Lucy Heartfilia. Until the skies turned gray, the tree died, and all is silent. Then, you could hear a faint sound.

At first quiet, but then,

"BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP".

"Ugh," says the celestial mage.

~Lucy POV~

It was hard to believe it had nearly been half a year since Lisanna came back from Edolas. Everyone had been so happy. Tears had been shed, happy and joyful tears, obviously. We had a massive party and everyone got along very well. Extremely well with Natsu too. Lisanna was a very sweet girl, and we got along very well, but I just thought that maybe, just maybe, Natsu could've fallen for me. I guess not.

~Normal POV~

It was a nice summer day. Lucy walked onto the stone wall and got warned to be careful. Again. She happily walked into the guild only to meet a flying table meet her head. Frustrated, she could only turn to Natsu who, unfortunately, had eyes on Lisanna. That didn't stop her though.

"Hey Lucy." Natsu gave her his signature grin that made her fall in love with him.

"Hey Natsu. Hi Lisanna!" She replied happily knowing her situation well. But again, that didn't stop her. "I've been meaning to talk to you. I was wondering if we could all do a mission. You know just the three of us, well, with Happy too."

"What was that?" said Natsu, "sorry Lucy. I was zoning out."

~Lucy POV~

It really hurt. I knew he was zoning out because his eyes were laid on Lisanna. How could someone possibly not like her. She's beautiful, kind, fun to be with, and had the biggest heart. Of course Natsu fell for her. I would've too. Not to mention, I noticed he stopped calling me "Luce". And that, it just broke my heart.

~Normal POV~

"Hey Lucy!" Natsu said excitedly, "I forgot to tell you."

"Yeah? What?"

"Well Team Natsu decided that we could have Lisanna on our team."

"Sure! That'd be great!"

"Well actually, a team can only have four people at maximum, soo… "

"You want me to leave."

"Would that be alright with you?"

And that was when Lisanna spoke up.

"Wait a minute! You can't just replace Lucy! That wouldn't be alright at all. She will always be a member of Team Natsu! It's alright it I'm not on the team. I could just join another team."

"No, that wouldn't be right. You missed two years. It's alright. I can go solo to get stronger" she says with a smile, though no one saw the pain behind it. It was taking all her courage and energy not to cry.

"Thanks Luce! We owe ya one!"

And so, Team Natsu left on a new journey. That would take a very, very, very long time.

~Lucy POV~

I somehow knew, deep in my heart, that that would be the last time he calls me "Luce".

So how was that for my first story chapter? I hope you liked it. I'll try to update more often.
