Chapter 1
For Lucy Heartfelia that day began just as any other day before.
She woke up early in the morning, made her bed, took a shower, brushed her teeth and combed her long blonde hair. After which she got dressed into skinny, light, slightly ripped jeans and a yellow top with a blue jacket over it and brown low boots. Then she ate her breakfast, took her school bag and headed out.
On the sidewalk across from her house her neighbour and best friend was waiting for her, Gray Fullbuster. Tall, handsome 17-year old teenage boy, with black hair and black eyes. He wore dark baggy jeans, black t-shirt with grey jacket above it and black sneakers. He loved the color black.
˝Good morning, Gray!˝ Lucy greets him with a smile on her face, as perky as she always is from the beginning of the day.
˝Morning, Lu!˝ He greets back with a casual wave as she links their arms together from underneath.
˝Ready for another day at school?˝ Lucy questions.
˝Is anyone ever really ready for school?˝ He rolls his eyes, to which she lets him go and pushes him slightly in a friendly manner.
"Jerk! Fyi, I like school!" She sticks her tongue at him.
He lightly and just barely touches her shoulder, ˝That's cause you're a weirdo.'' ,to which she pretends to be hurt and holds on to her shoulder. ˝Oh you hurt me Gray Fullbuster. So mean!˝
He chuckles. ˝Like I said weirdo.˝
˝I mean it's not like I like to study per se I just like to be around people y'know?˝ Unlike Gray, who likes to be alone from time to time and enjoys solitude, Lucy is a social butterfly and that's what makes them such great friends. At least that's what Lucy always says. Opposites attract - but in this situation it's not romance related, strictly friendship kinda way.
Gray, like usual, ignores Lucy making her pout while she attempts to get his attention.
˝Hey, you two!˝ They turned around and saw their very good friend, Erza scarlet. Red-haired girl with brown eyes, wearing a long-sleeved white shirt, black skirt and black boots.
˝Hey, Erza!˝
˝What's up?˝
˝You won't believe what I just heard!˝ Erza starts, ˝Some new kids are coming to our school!˝ Erza said, causing them to open their mouths in shock.
˝New kids!?˝
˝But, it's the middle of the semester.˝ Lucy commented and Erza shrugged. ˝That's what I heard.˝ She said.
˝So do you know anything about them?˝ Gray asked.
˝All I know is that they moved from England.˝ She replied, when the bell rang which signaled that classes started.
˝Oh. Well, we gotta go to class. Bye Erza! See you later.˝ Lucy waved at her friend, followed by Gray.
˝Later.˝
˝Bye guys!˝ She waved at them, turning in the other direction and heading to her class.
˝Good morning, kids!˝ Teacher came and greeted them, with same enthusiasm as she always does.
˝Good morning!˝ Everyone said in unison.
˝We have three new students! Please enter!˝ As she said that, three of them entered.
˝I'm Levy McGarden. Nice to meet you all.˝ Said a girl with blue hair and hazel colored eyes, wearing orange t-shirt, black jeans and brown boots. She was also the shortest of the three.
˝My name is Juvia Lockser. Pleasure to meet you.˝ Tall girl with blue hair and dark blue eyes, wearing black coat with a brown belt around it and brown pants with light brown boots.
˝And I'm Natsu Dragneel. Nice to meet you.˝ Pink haired guy with black eyes and pale skin, wearing a yellow t-shirt with blue x on it, light blue jeans and black sneakers.
˝We moved here from England a week ago and we decided to enroll here. Not many schools let students enroll mid year. We also happened to like this school the best. We hope to make friends too. I hope we get along well.˝ Levy continues to talk as three of them bow in front of the class.
˝You can go take a seat.˝ Teacher said and they sat wherever there was an empty seat. ˝Be nice to your new classmates and make them feel welcome.˝ Teacher added.
Natsu sat next to Gray who's sitting behind Lucy.
Lucy was sitting next to the window that was open and a little breeze blew in, making Natsu smell her scent, and at that moment he got a desire for blood. He looked at her and he looked at her during the whole class. He admired her, from the back. He did not catch her from the front. But her scent was enhancing him.
´Could she possibly be-?´
Gray noticed Natsu was watching Lucy and he felt jealousy rise up. Why? He might or might not have a small crush on her.
Gray glares at the pink-haired boy, who noticed and raised a brow at him.
´What's with this guy!? Why is he staring at Lucy like that?´ Gray thought as he rolled his eyes.
˝Hey, Juvia, look at Natsu!˝ Levy turned around and whispered to Juvia.
˝What?˝ Juvia looked over at him.
˝Seems he already found himself a girlfriend.˝ Levy giggled.
˝Levy, he's just looking at her. Who knows if she's going to like him back. Who knows if he even likes her˝ Juvia pointed out.
˝Oh, come on, Juv. Lighten up a little. Don't be so gloomy all the time!˝
˝Levy, please just turn around and be quiet!˝ Juvia said, annoyed by Levy's blabbering nature..
˝Okay, okay. Jeez. I got good view of someone very interesting here in front anyway.˝ Levy said, turning forward, putting one leg over the other and placing her palm on her cheek while looking at a certain guy with long spiky black hair and red eyes, wearing a brown sleeveless t-shirt, white baggy trousers, whire-gray headband around his head and blue sneakers.
´Oh, my. What was I thinking sitting near her.´ Juvia was thinking, face-palming herself.
˝This is so boring!˝ Sting complained.
˝Just be quiet so you don't get detention. Again.˝ Rouge told him. Sting was sitting next to Rouge who was sitting next to Natsu. But Natsu's attention was directed at Lucy.
˝Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Hey, check out how that new guy is looking at blondie!˝ Sting said, looking at Natsu.
˝Yeah so?˝ Rouge shrugged.
˝Nothing. Just sayin'! I got the feeling he's the same as us.˝ Sting said and Rouge looked at Natsu then at Lucy.
And so, minutes passed and the bell rang, again signaling the end of class. Lucy got up from her chair when she bumped into someone and her books fell on the floor.
˝Oh, I'm so sorry. I wasn't watching...˝ As she was apologizing she looked up and saw Natsu looking at her and helping her pick up the books.
˝I'm sorry. It's my fault. Here are your books.˝ He said and smiled. She slightly blushed.
˝Um...˝
˝What is it?˝ He asked.
˝You look familiar.˝
˝Really?˝
˝Yeah. I've seen you before.˝
˝You did?˝ He looked confused. ˝Well, now that I think about it you look familiar too.˝
˝That's it! Now I remember! I saw you at some festival in the summer when we were still little kids! Remember...˝
˝Oh yeah! You're that little blonde girl! Yes, I remember. We promised to each other that we'll meet again some day.˝
˝And we did!˝ They both smiled.
˝Hey, Luce! Everything okay?˝ Gray approached them, eyeing Natsu.
˝Yeah, everything's fine! Hey, you know I met Natsu when we were kids. During the summer festival.˝
˝You did?˝ Gray raised a brow.
˝Yeah. Right Natsu?˝ Lucy smiled
˝Yeah...˝ Natsu trailed, noticing Gray's glares, but then looked back at Lucy.
˝Hey, Natsu! Come on! Hurry up!˝ Levy called him, standing by the door. And Juvia was next to her.
˝Coming! Well I gotta go. It's been nice talking to you, Lucy. See ya around. Bye!˝ He smiled at her, ignoring Gray completely and running off.
˝Bye, Natsu!˝ She blushed. ´He seems like a nice guy...´
˝Hmpf... Come on. We'll be late for other classes!˝ Gray said.
˝Oh...yeah!˝
Erza, Mira and Cana were standing by the lockers. ˝Hey, Erza! Mira! Cana!˝ Lucy and Gray joined.
˝Hey you two!˝
˝So how was class?˝ Mira asked.
˝We got new students!˝ Lucy said excitedly.
˝Really? So who are they?˝ Cana asked.
˝Two girls, Levy and Juvia and a guy, Natsu!˝ Lucy replied, blushing at the mention of his name.
˝Uu, is he cute?˝ Cana asked Lucy, nudging her with an elbow.
˝Well...kind of... Well I met him before.˝
˝When?˝ Mira, Cana and Erza chimed in curiously.
˝When we were kids.˝ Lucy said, fluttering at the thought.
˝I don't like that guy at all!˝ Gray complained.
˝You just met him.˝ Lucy pointed out.
˝Yeah well, I don't like him! And just so you know he was looking at you the whole time!˝ He said, crossing his arms in annoyance,
˝He was looking at m..me?˝ Lucy stuttered
˝Even I noticed it!˝
˝Yeah so did I!˝
˝Yeah, Lucy. Looks like everyone noticed but you hehe.˝
Gajeel, Lisanna and Loke came by, and ready to tease, 'cause what are friends for.
˝Hey, guys.˝ Erza greeted.
˝Ohh...Lucy! Looks like you could get a boyfriend any day now!˝ Cana poked her cheek.
˝Please Cana! Cut it out!˝ Lucy said, blushing.
˝My baby girl is all grown up!˝ Cana dramatically said, embracing Lucy who just rolled her eyes
˝Pftt...˝ Gray sighted walked away. Everyone but Lucy noticed he was jealous.
˝Where are you going Gray?˝ Lucy asked, clueless
˝To the bathroom.˝ He replied, as he kept walking.
˝I agree with him btw. I don't like him.˝ Gajeel said, leaning against the locker.
˝Yeah, me too. He's strange!˝ Loke added.
˝Oh, you guys. You don't even know him!˝ Lucy frowned, defending him.
˝Enough chit chat! You kids all go to your classes.˝ A math teacher came, scolding them. He was scary to everyone and everyone feared him, that's why all of them ran off to their classrooms.
Three new students found their way to the school roof, where it was nice and quiet. Not to mention a beautiful sight of the city.
˝So Natsu, you like that blonde girl, huh?˝ Levy asked him, wiggling her eyebrows.
˝Huh? What? Where did you get that from!?˝ He asked, obviously getting nervous and red on the face.
˝You were looking at her, like non stop Natsu! I'm not blind or sutpid. You like her!˝ Levy squealed, excited about the whole situation.
˝No, I don't! And even if I did like her it doesn't matter!˝ Natsu claimed, turning away from them.
˝Why not?˝
˝She's a normal girl. And I'm... we're...˝ He looked down.
They knew why he couldn't…
Why he can't do anything..
˝Oh, Natsu. But just cause we're...˝
˝Just let it go Levy.˝ Juvia shook her head. ˝Come on you two. We'll be late for class.˝
˝Yeah, let's go Natsu.˝ While Juvia started walking away and Levy pulled Natsu after her.
˝That new kid is the same as us! And so are those two new girls!˝ Sting told Minevra, Rogue nodded in agreement, even if he had no interest in any of them.
˝More vampires huh? This will be an interesting year...˝ Minerva smirked.
Lucy sat down by the window, taking out the books she's surprised by a sudden appearance of Levy in front of her.
˝Hey! You're Lucy right?˝ Levy asked cheerfully, smiling at Lucy. Juvia was standing behind her, arms crossed and poker face.
˝Yes. And who are you?˝ She asked, although she knew their names since they introduced themselves in front of the whole class, she didn't exactly talk to the girls yet.
˝I'm Levy! And that's Juvia! I hope we're not bothering you, but Natsu told us you two are friends, so we wanted to meet you. Any friend of Natsu's is our friend as well! Right, Juv? ˝ Levy said and looked at Juvia who gave her a thumbs up and a small smile.
Juvia looked out of the window. She noticed that white clouds started appearing on the clear blue sky. She watched them float across the sky, birds flying by.
Free.
Lucy noticed Juvia's absence and turned to Levy, half whispering.
˝Is she okay? She seems worried.˝
˝Nah! She's always like that. She sees something, she likes it and stares at that for a while. She might seem a bit strange, I know but she's really great actually.˝ Levy whispered back.
Juvia could hear them, Levy knew that. She winked at Juvia who just ignored her and kept looking at the sky.
˝Where's Natsu?˝ Lucy asked.
˝He's in the bathroom.˝ Levy smirked and asked, ˝Why do you ask?˝
˝N-No reason!˝ Lucy blushed and turned away from Levy, pretending to look out the window.
Natsu was washing up his face. ´Lucy…she's even more beautiful than last time I saw her. I wish… no,no… I can't. I'd put her in danger. I can let that happen.´ He slapped his cheeks lightly, with his still wet hand. ´Cool it man! She's a human and you're ...´ He looked at the mirror and frowned. ˝A monster.˝ He uttered.
Bell rang.
˝Oh no! I'm gonna be late for class!˝ He rushed over to the classroom and luckily managed to get there before the teacher.
Levy looked back and caught Natsu looking at Lucy again. She smiled and turned forward. ´He's smitten.´
˝Pst! Rogue.˝ Sting turned towards Rogue, whispering to him.
˝What?˝ He spat, not being amused by constant interruptions.
˝I got an idea.˝
˝And what's your idea?˝ Rouge asked, sighing.
˝Let's have little fun with new kids, huh?˝
˝You really wanna get in detention again, don't you?˝ Rogue raised a brow.
˝Well I never said it would happen in school, so I won't get in the detention.˝
˝We'll talk later. Just turn around.˝
˝Hey, Loke! New kid is looking at Lucy again!˝ Lisanna said, poking him, which made him turn around.
˝Yeah. Well, you can't blame him. Look at her. She is gorgeous.˝ Loke commented. ˝Not to mention nice and kind and all that stuff.˝
˝Oh, so you've got a crush on her?˝ Lisanna asked, a bit of jealousy heard in her voice.
˝No I don't! It's Lucy, Besides I have my eye on someone else.˝ Loke grinned and winked at her.
˝Who?˝ She asked, curious.
˝I'll tell you later. Shhh˝ He turned around and doodled on his book.
It was a heart with Lisanna written in it.
˝Pftt. you know what, I don't wanna know˝ She crossed her arms and said and he heard her trying to hold in his laugh.
˝Oh, come on! Stupid bell! Ring already! Ring!˝ Gajeel muttered something with both his elbows on the desk and his palms on his cheeks.
˝You bored, big guy?˝ Someone whispered from behind. He turned around and found himself looking at a blue haired girl who was sitting behind him.
˝Uh…˝ He blushed slightly while looking at her big hazel eyes, she was smiling.
˝Will you answer me?˝ She asked.
˝Huh? What?˝
˝I asked, are you bored?˝
˝You can't tell?˝
˝I was 's not like I can read people's minds or something like that. Although it would be cool.˝ Levy said.
˝You're pretty small. Do you even see the board from there?˝ Gajeel asked.
˝What? Of course I see! Are you making fun of my high!?˝ Levy snapped at Gajeel.
˝Levy, why are you yelling in the middle of the class?˝ Teacher asked.
˝I apologize. I got little carried away.˝ Levy said.
˝I don't want to hear excuses. Detention after school! Now sit.˝
Gajeel looked back and saw her glaring at him. He turned forward still waiting for the bell to ring. ´Ugh…great! Now that girl's mad at me! Maybe I should apologize. Come on, ring you damn bell! Ring! Ugh!´ He was thinking as he put away his palms from his cheeks, putting them on desk and leaned his head on his arm and sighed.
´Idiot! How dare he call me small and make fun of me! And I got into detention because of him! Ugh! Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!´
˝Hey, Natsu if you want, three of you can come and sit with us during lunch!˝ Lucy suggested, smiling. Gray looked at Natsu and Lucy.
˝Are you sure that's okay? I mean your friends won't mind?˝ Natsu asked.
˝Of course not! We're glad to have new friends, right Gray?˝ Lucy asked looking back at Gray.
˝Yeah, splendid idea!˝ Gray said sarcastically and Natsu glared for a second then looked back at Lucy.
˝Well if it's okay...sure!˝ Natsu said, smiling and then he walked away.
Levy got up, took her stuff and headed for the door but someone grabbed her by the hand.
˝What!?˝
˝Look, I….I didn't…I wasn't trying to make fun of you, your high… and I'm really sorry and sorry for getting you into detention.˝ He blurred out, making her cheeks turn red. ´He actually apologized, what do you know, huh. Maybe he's not such a bad guy.´
˝Apology accepted big guy!˝ Levy smiled.
˝So…are we cool?˝ Gajeel asked.
˝We're cool!˝ Levy giggled
˝By the way, what's your name?˝
˝Levy. You're Gajeel,right?˝
˝Yeah. That's a nice name you got, Levy.˝ His smile made her heart a bit rushed.
Juvia looked at Levy and Gajeel and noticed their interaction. She grinned,
'Looks like our Levy has a crush.´ Juvia thought to herself. She was about to turn around and leave when her body crashed into someone else's.
Juvia didn't fall though, she felt hands around her waist, holding her up, and for a second she felt a warm breath on her skin because that person was so close to her, before she pushed him away. ˝Why don't you watch where you're going!˝ She snapped at the other person.
And that person was Gray
He stumbled back and groaned, hittin the edge of the desk.
˝Hey! If I didn't catch you, you would fall! How about you thank me!˝ He snapped back.
She just ignored him and walked away, leaving him there just staring at her, stunned and a bit annoyed.
