Chapter 1

"Mom, can I please go back to Fairy Tail High for my senior year? It's been so long and I miss my friends so much! I want to spend that important year with them!" the beautiful blonde begged her mother for probably the 600th time.

Layla sighed, "I guess I don't have a choice. But you have to promise me that you'll be able to take care of yourself! Your father and I are going to be worried sick without our baby with us."

"Don't worry, Mom. I'm turning 16 soon and I'm independent as heck!"

It's been a little less than a year since Lucy Heartfillia flew overseas to assist her father with his company's work even though she was only at a tender age of 15 back then. Probably because she had inherited her Mother's brains, and not to mention her looks as well. Lucy grew up being fed with a silver spoon. Anything she wanted, she could get. Countless servants around the mansion waiting on her like a princess, having the best clothes to wear and the best food to eat. But despite all that, Lucy's character was never spoilt. She was probably the most down-to-earth rich girls you would know in this century. And here she was, back in a small town named Magnolia which she spent most of her childhood in with her cozy little apartment, just enough to fit her and her dog, Plue. It definitely couldn't compare to that humongous mansion she used to live in, but she was contented.

"Oh no I'm going to be late!" Lucy screamed as she clumsily put on her shoes, "If I'm late on my first day back at Fairy Tail High it's going to be so embarrassing." She had her trademark side ponytail tied with a blue ribbon, her uniform consisting of a beige vest, blue and white striped tie, a white inner shirt and lastly, a short grey skirt that stops at the middle of her oh-so-perfect and slim thighs.

"Be good at home okay? I'll be back once school is over to play with you!" Lucy gave Plue a tight hug before leaving and the white-furred puppy barked in response. With that, Lucy swiftly ran out of her apartment with a piece of bread in her mouth, not very glamorous. She walked along the streets of Magnolia, glancing at all the familiar buildings that she used to walk past every morning. She missed this. "I can't wait to see all of my friends again," Lucy whispered to herself.

Just as she was in her own little daydream while munching on her breakfast, a boy wearing the same uniform as her walked past her. It was a mere 5 seconds. But 5 seconds was all she needed to admire this dashing young man. She stopped in her tracks and stared at him. He had really unusual salmon-colored hair and dreamy black orbs that would make any girl swoon, a slim yet muscular build with the perfect height. Oh boy, he was handsome, handsome enough to make Lucy's knees feel weak. "Now that's what I call eyecandy."

The boy seemed to notice Lucy staring at him. He paused for a moment to give her a small smile, and walked off just like that. Lucy could feel her face getting hot, "Oh my god what am I thinking? Snap out of it Lucy!" she talked to herself once again. Lucy hurriedly continued her short walk to school after getting her shit together.

"LUUUUUU-CHAAAAAAAAN!" Levy pounced onto Lucy as if a million years went by since she last saw her. "I missed you so much! All of us did!" Levy said as she started crying.

"It's so good to have you back, Lucy. I felt so empty without you," Erza shed a tear and wiped it away with her finger with a smile.

"I missed you guys so much too! I can't believe I'm finally back in Fairy Tail High," Lucy hugged her friends tightly.

"Okay let's settle all this back in class, we're going to be late," Erza exclaimed as she looked at the clock.

As the trio walked down the hallways, Lucy noticed that the school has changed a lot in just a year and there were many unfamiliar faces as well. Wow it's so different, I missed this place. Lucy smiled to herself as she was immersed in her own thoughts, only being happy that she was finally back here, in Fairy Tail High. Erza noticed and asked "What are you smiling about, Lucy?"

"I just really missed all of you and I'm so glad to be back, being able to spend my senior year with you guys, my best friends." Lucy sounded as if she was going to cry. Erza and Levy both gave her a soft smile.

"Thank god we're all in the same class, I wouldn't survive class without the both of you by my side!" Levy said.

"Oh well, best friends have to stick together!" Lucy said.

As they walked into their classroom, Erza said, "Lucy, we saved a seat for you."

"Thanks guys," she took a seat beside Levy while her homeroom teacher, Mr Gildarts, walked into the classroom clumsily carrying a ton of books. Oh Mr Gildarts, how much I missed him. I remember how he was always a joker with his students. Mr Gildarts cleared his throat and said, "As all of you know, we have a new student with us today. Actually not very new as she was a student here a year ago and now she's back! Please introduce yourself."

Lucy stood up nervously to introduce herself, "H-Hi everyone, I'm Lucy Heartfillia. Nice to meet you all and please take care of me!" As soon as she said that, whispers started going around the classroom.

"Wow she's really hot."

"She looks so pretty!"

"That figure just screams perfect."

Mr Gildarts coughed multiple times to silence the class and get their attention. "All of you please stop gawking at her and pay attention to me instead as class is starting soon, thank you!" Lucy heaved a big sigh of relief as Mr Gildarts somehow saved the day with his goofy self. Those whispers were making her insecure. As Lucy sat back down, she heard a voice from her left going, "Hey Lucy."

Lucy turned her head and noticed a guy beside her with bright orange hair and hazel eyes. He had a face straight out of a magazine. With the light shining directly on him from the window, he looked like he just descended from heaven or something. Since when did Fairy Tail High have so many hot guys?

"Name's Loke," he said with a huge grin.

"Hi there, Loke. Nice to meet you!" Lucy responded with a sweet smile and she was sure she saw a slight tint of pink on Loke's cheeks.

"I see you're getting quite a lot of attention," Loke laughed.

"W-What? I-It's nothing to be really impressed about!" Lucy started waving her hands in the air.

"You sure are humble," Loke remarked.

"Oh my, school's finally over!" Levy said as she yawned and stretched her hands high up in the air.

"School is supposed to be something you enjoy! Learning new things everyday, participating in new activities and making new friends-"

"Yes yes council president," Levy cut Erza off with a giggle. "By the way Lu-chan, do you want to watch the soccer match later on at the field? There's going to be many hot guys playing!"

"I thought you were only interested in metal face? With his Shooby Doo Bop," Erza questioned.

Levy's face turned a bright shade of red. "W-what metal face? Who says I'm interested in Gajeel?!"

"Levy, is there something you haven't been updating me on?" Lucy smirked creepily at her blue-haired friend.

"N-no there isn't! So do you want to watch the soccer match, Lu-chan? And Erza too!"

"I definitely wouldn't mind." The both of them said.

Lucy, Levy and Erza sat at the side of the field, watching the soccer players do their thing.

"So Lu-chan, I saw Loke talking to you in class just now."

"Yeah, what about it?" Lucy looked puzzled.

"Do you think he's interested in you?" Levy's eyes suddenly had a certain sparkle in them as she grinned at Lucy.

"T-That's impossible! We just met so how could he be interested in me? And besides, he is so good looking."

"Oh Lucy, you're such a child." Erza said as she took a small bite of her favourite strawberry cheesecake.

"You never know, Lu-chan. But you aren't too shabby yourself! It's only your first day back and there's already so many guys ogling their eyes at you, I think some were even drooling while trying to get your number."

Lucy laughed nervously as she cringed at the thought of guys drooling at her. Gross.

"Oh, Lu-chan! Speak of the devil, isn't that Loke right there?" Levy pointed towards the goal on the field.

"Where? I don't see him!" Lucy shifted her body around whilst in search for Loke. But instead, a certain salmon-haired boy caught her eye. Her eyes widened when she saw him kicking the ball across the field. Isn't that the guy I saw this morning?

"Oh my god." Lucy said out loud to herself.

"What's wrong, Lu-chan?"

Lucy noticed what she just said and started to blush really hard. "N-Nothing! N-Nothing's wrong!"

Levy gave her a really puzzled look, but turned her head back to the field to watch the games.

"H-Hey Erza, who's the boy with the salmon-coloured hair?" Lucy asked nervously.

"Oh that guy? His name is Natsu Dragneel."

"Super popular soccer player with countless girls swooning over him and writing him love letters every day. His grades are not bad too. It's kind of crazy. He transferred in after you left. Why do you ask though, Lu-chan?"

"O-Oh I just think he's kind of cute." Lucy started shifting her body nervously and awkwardly.

"I'm not surprised, he is quite the attractive guy. But Jellal is better." Erza giggled.

"You and your Jellal again." Levy sighed.

"I'm glad that you and Jellal are happy together, Erza. It's been 2 years and your relationship with him is still going strong!" Lucy smiled brightly, being happy for her friend in love.

"Of course we are." Erza said shyly. "Jellal and Natsu are good friends by the way, along with the other popular guys."

"I see." Lucy said as she looked back at Natsu who looked like he was having the time of his life on the field. He really is dreamy.

"He has a girlfriend though."

.

.

.

"Well, that escalated quickly." Erza broke the silence.

"H-He does?" Lucy's face fell.

"They have been lovey-dovey for about 2 months now. But I wouldn't be surprised if they break up soon, relationships with Natsu don't usually last very long." Levy said, clearly annoyed.

Lucy looked back at Natsu and saw him walking towards a pretty silver-haired girl who quickly embraced him in a hug even though he was all sweaty. Is it just me, or Natsu doesn't look very happy?

"Is that his girlfriend?" Lucy asked her 2 best friends.

"Yeah, Lisanna. Popular cheerleader. I heard that she's really mean." Levy replied.

In the middle of their conversation, they noticed a familiar figure running towards them.

"Hi Lucy!" Loke said as he stood panting infront of her.

"H-Hi Loke, what are you doing here?" Lucy asked. Levy and Erza stared at Loke suspiciously.

"I-I just wanted to come over and say hi." Loke scratched the back of his head nervously. "Oh Lucy! Since you're 'new' here, do you want to come say hi to some of my friends? Erza and Levy come along too!"

"Sure, I'd love too." Lucy signaled to Erza and Levy to come along with her so it wouldn't be so awkward.

They strolled to the field while Loke ran over to his group of friends, some being very familiar.

"Hey guys, this is Lucy!" Loke happily introduced her.

"It's been long, Lucy." One of the boys walked towards her.

"Oh my gosh, Gray! It's been so long!" Lucy ran over to him to give him a hug.

"So you're Lucy? Erza and Levy are always talking about you."

Lucy turned to face the salmon-haired boy and blushed a little bit.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Natsu Dragneel." Natsu held his hand out.

"Nice to meet you too!" Lucy responded with a nervous hand shake and Natsu gave her the cutest grin she has ever seen.

"You look really familiar, have we met?" Natsu asked.

"We saw each other this morning! S-Somewhere outside school."

"Oh! I remember now! So you were that girl-"

And suddenly, the silver-haired girl cut in between them. "I'm Lisanna!"

"N-Nice to meet you." Lucy smiled but she was annoyed on the inside. Why did she just cut into our conversation?

"Natsu, we probably should be heading back now! It's getting late and you're tired!" Lisanna proceeded to dragging Natsu away by the arm out of the field.

"See you guys again some other time!" Natsu shouted to the group while waving his hands cheerfully.

"They're always so lovey-dovey." Gray remarked and couldn't help but laugh.

Hmm, Natsu Dragneel. He's an interesting guy isn't he?
