[ She was in fact, expecting him to refuse. To stomp his foot to be juvenile to be Natsu.
Even though she told him to go away, she wanted to take the words back. She wanted to say she didn't mean it, that she was just upset and confused, and... and she was being STUPID. But she doesn't say any of those things. She doesn't move, doesn't even so much as breathe because it felt like she had clutched her heart and was squeezing it, wondering why it wasn't popping.
What are you doing Lucy?... he's your best friend. It ... it wasn't his fault. Apologize already! Say something! ]
...
[ Continued silence, though tears nearly prick her eyes at the response. It... bothered him that little? They... were still friends weren't they? He could just walk away? .... ....because she told him to go. Lucy, stop him.
She hears him turn and walk towards the door, and she turns slowly, but she can't speak. It's too hard to see him walk away. Natsu ... I'm sorry. Please don't go. How hard was it to say that? Just... say his name. Even that would be enough.
M-my heart

But she can't. The words won't come. ]
