"Hey,Lu-tan,you look upset",my best friend,Levy noted.

"Just a bit stressed Levy",I replied.l

"What's the matter?"

Nothing.Don't worry Levy."

"Sure?",my best friend asked me worriedly

"Yes.How about we go out tonight?Or maybe we can have a movie marathon at my place and then sleepover?"

Levy bit her lips and looked sadly at me

"I'm sorry Lu,I and Gajeel are going on a date tonight",she said.

I felt disappointment.Raw and bitter.Levy had a crush on Gajeel for two years and finally they were together.They have been dating for a month and Levy looked happier than ever.There was no way I could ask her to cancel her date.

"I'm sorry Lu...",she replied

"Don't be.It's alright!",I tried to reply cheerfully.

The bell rang signalling the end of our last period.

As Levy and I, apart from being schoolmates and best friends,were neighbours,we walked home together.I let Levy talk on and on about how Gajeel was so awesome and cute and superb and everything,on our way back.I just kept on nodding,barely listening.

When our destination came,we wished each other goodbye and entered our respective homes.I was too exhausted to do anything so I just jumped on my bed and settled for a good sleep

When I woke up,it was dark outside.I switched on the lights and changed out of my school uniform.I made myself an early dinner and decided to write s letter to my mom

Dear Mom,

Today has been quite rough.I have been...uh..kicked out of my part time job.A guy named Sting Eucliffe from our rival school Sabertooth High was hitting on me.Although,his looks are to die for,he's a pervert,cheat and a cruel bastard(Sorry for the language)!He treats girls like toys.So I refused him.

You know what he did??!!He tried to sexually harass me.To protect myself(and also because I hate him),I kicked him in the balls and threw the hot coffee at his face.His face looked hilarious!He never expected to be beaten up by anyone.Much less a girl.Although I got fired for pulling of this little trick of mine(as Sting was a customer in the caffee I worked at),I don't regret it.

I am quite broke mom!I have to pay the rent for this month and for food and electric bills and school and - urgh how will I survive?!I have to look for another job!

OK bye,I need to go!Love u loads,mom!

Yours lovingly,

Lucy

I put the letter safely inside my drawer,stretched and stood up.It was 10:59.I did not feel like studying and I already had my dinner.So I decided to go to my hiding place.It is called 'The Ground' and is beside the Lake near my school.Others say it is haunted,but I know better.

The ground is my escape from reality.Nobody goes there except me and I love going there.I love how it is so peaceful and beautiful.I lie there and gaze at the stars.This is my favourite activity.The only thing that gives me peace.

When I got to The Ground I lied down and started gazing at the stars.The Sky looks beautiful with The stars sparkling like some silver jewels.The stars remind me of my mom.I started reminiscing the times she was alive and when we two went for stargazing.She loved the stars and I loved her face when she watched the stars.After her death I still go for stargazing.It makes me feel close to her.At least as much close as a living person can with a dead person.

Suddenly,I saw a shooting star and I knew how mom used to believe in them.

"Help me,mom!",I whispered at the shooting star,tears rolling down my cheeks.

I came back home before midnight and lied down on my bed,instantly falling asleep.

I was on a soft,warm bed with a pink fluffy haired person person beside me.Pink..fluffy...another person.. Beside me...WHAT??!!!

My eyes shot open!

"KYAAAAA!!!",I yelled.

A pink hair boy was sleeping BESIDE ME!ON MY BED!!

The boy jumped up when I screamed.He was an extremely handsome guy.He was muscular muscular but lean.He had beautiful onyx eyes and pink hair.He looked like a prince from those fairy tales.Then I saw something which was definitely weirder than waking up one morning and finding a drop dead gorgeous guy sleeping beside you.The guy had HORNS!

"WHO ARE YOU?"I screamed at him.

At first the guy looked confused and then he smirked.God.did my heart stop beating?

"I am the devil.You summoned me last night and so I am here!",he replied

"I-what?",I asked baffled.

"You wished on the shooting star for me.Now if you'd shut up,I'd rather sleep".

He lied down and instantly fell asleep.I did not understand what was happening but the one thing that I did understand was that either I was going crazy and needed a mental check-up soon or I was in for that doesn't end easily,I thought looking the at the guy who claimed to be the devil.Or my devil,should I say?
