The Red String of Fate [ NaLu ]

chapter 10

I'm sorry this was so late. It's been saved in my "to be published" pile and I had completely forgotten. I'm sorry! However here's the next chapter.

I sat it the living room next to Liana. She was still shaken. "Here" I passed her cup of tea to her
"T-thanks" she took it still shaking. I could hear Shiori and Hanako in the next room. Since we got back Hanako's anger was unbelievable.
"GAH!" She screamed as something broke
"Look I know you're-" something smashed "please just-" and another "CALM DOWN!" Shiori screamed. There was silence.
"I will be back in a moment" I told her rushing out of the door towards the kitchen.

Inside Hanako was surrounded by the kitchen chairs smashed, three, she held the fourth in her hand, make-up smudged, tears still running down her face, heels broken, she looked like a mess. "Jude is up stairs sleeping"
"He is?" I asked confused. I thought he was working today. Suddenly Shiori hesitated, suspicious.
"Eh, he felt ill, don't know why." She passed it off like it was nothing "I'm sorry...it's just I-"
"hello?" I heard Yuu enter the house. I ran back out of the kitchen and towards him
"Hey Yuu" I greeted him "they're in there" I gestured towards the kitchen.
"Alright thanks Lu" he smiled at me whilst passing. His smile reached his eyes but I could also tell he was worried. "Liana!" I thought.

I went back into the living room to find her in the same position I left her. "eh...Li-Liana?" I asked. She turned to me, surprised.
"Y-yes?" She asked
"Do you want to call any one" she nodded. I got my phone out of my pocket and handed her it.
"Th-Thanks" she took it and began dialling.
"hello?" The person on the other line said.
"Brother, it's me" she smiled at the sound of his voice.
"Eh? Who?" He sounded familiar but I didn't think much on it.
"You idiot it's me, Liana, your sister."
"What?!" He screamed "seriously! How are you?! Where are you now? Last time I knew you were in...India!" I looked at the girl, she was slightly tanned
"I-I'm home"
"Huh?"
"I got home yesterday" she began to tear up. "Help me please"
"sister?" He asked
"please I'm at someone's house"
"Where?" She handed me the phone. I told the guy on the phone. "Alright, who are you?"
"I'm-"
"not important I live near you so I will be there very soon" he hung up. I stared at my phone.
"He'll be here soon" I told her as she brought her knees up to her chin.
"T-thanks again."

Fifteen minutes later the door bell rang. I went straight to it. I saw their shadow at the foot of the door. I opened it to reveal "sting?"
"Eh Natsu's girl? This is your house?" I nodded and he sighed "is my sister here" I nodded again. He walked past me and into the living room. "Liana, what happened" I heard. I followed him until he closed the door. Rude. I knew who could help: Natsu. I dialled his number.
"Luce?"
"Can you come here, it's urgent"
"what?" He sounded like he just woke up.
"It's Sting he is in my house"
"uh, okay? What's that got to do with me?" I sighed and calmly replied
"being his 'idol' can you please help me with him and his sister?"
"Sure why not"
"bye" I hung up on him. Time to wait again.

"Luce-"
"He is in there" I pointed at the door as Natsu entered the house. He nodded and walked past knocks on the door. It opened slightly
"I will let you in soon Luce" Luce?
"Sting it's me" the door swung open as soon as he heard Natsu's voice.
"Why are you here?"
"It's my girl friends house?" I blushed when he added girl friend, it still feels weird.
"Oh yeah, come in" he let us in.

Liana was sitting properly now. "Natsu, Luce this is my sister" again it's weird him calling me Luce.
"Nice to meet you-"
"OH MY GOSH!" Liana shouted causing Shiori, Yuu and Hanako to run through.
"What happened and who is this? Oh hi Natsu" Shiori said all at once.
"I'm her brother and Lucy and Natsu's classmate Sting" he introduced himself. Liana stared at Natsu.
"You"
"me?"
"Sleep with me" there was silence
"I'm sorry?"
"Sleep with me" she said again.
"No?" He wasn't sure if she was serious or not
"please your hot! My type is hot boys"
"no I have a girl friend" Natsu said again.
"Who? I bet I'm prettier" where did this confidence come from? he gestured towards me. Liana looked me up and down "I may not be as curvy but I'm skinny at least" that hurt like hell. "I bet she doesn't do it for you either"
"She does" I blushed like a idiot
"Oi! If anyone is sleeping with Natsu it will be me, I just lost my husband" Hanako spoke up
"since when was I an option?" Natsu was confused. I knew Natsu was good looking but...that means Lisanna, Kani, Hanako and Liana like him. He only has Loke to deal with and he isn't even serious, I think at least.
"Me!"
"No me!"
"Natsu chose!" They both yelled
"I told you both, I love Lucy" he took my hand. Right then I was just a lifeless being. "Sting" Natsu turned to him "Take your sister home" sting obeyed and hurried her out
"But I-"
"Mum misses you now hurry up" they left.
"Hanako, please leave"
"Excuse me?"
"Please?" He looked towards Shiori. I couldn't see but I felt her eyes on me.
"Yuu take Hanako and contact Doan" Yuu nodded and took his sister, not easily. Shiori nodded and left us alone.

Natsu stood in my sight. We were alone. "Luce..." Why? Why did eveyone want something I had? I'm not saying I owned him, I'm just saying- it didn't even matter. If I was happy everyone was sad. If I went back, if I went back to the time before. That time before everyone knew. I felt terrible but everyone else was...happy. Perhaps it's for the best...
