I'd rather see a "cold reunion" with the two only slowly getting closer again... assuming Fairy Tail will run long enough for there to be time for such a lengthly solution.

Just when Lucy needed her best friend the most, he just took off without even telling her face-to-face. That must be pretty rough for her and thus she's entitled to be really pissed at Natsu.

To top it off everyone else still has their best friends/love interest to comfort them, except Lucy. Gajeel has Levy and Lily, Juvia and Gray have each other, Wendy has Carla, Natsu has Happy, Elfman has his sisters.... and Lucy? Sure she still got her Spirits, but I doubt Lucy would ever summon them just so they could cuddle up and cry together. And the two Spirits who can come through on their own (Loke, Virgo) don't really seem the right type to console her in her grief.
