tomboy-otaku: Hello again~ :3 This will be my second story and as you can see, it is another -drumroll please- FAIRY TAIL FANFIC! I can't seem to think of another storyline for any other anime/manga/drama series so I think I'll stick with what I got. So, moving on. This story is based on Lucy's Pov unless specified.
Lucy: Hai, doumo. (Hello) *bows*
tomboy-otaku: The characters, manga and anime all belong to Mashima Hiro-sensei. Also it is set in the ova 2 where they all attend Fairy Academy. And Lucy is not on too bad terms with her father. :)
Lucy: I really do hope you don't get writer's block like me...
tomboy-otaku: *sweatdrop* I sure hope I don't... so enjoy!
Finally, I though I'd never finish moving into my new apartment. Father sent too much stuff, but luckily he hired some movers to help me unwrap all the stuff.
A month ago, I asked my father to let me attend Fairy Academy and live independantly until I graduated. He was reluctant at first but luckily he understood since my life is in his hands, being of a rich family. Who I married and my future was all in his hands. I wanted to see for myself how the world really is because everyone around me, knows I am of a rich background. They all crowd me and praise me with these fake smiles that are very easy to figure out. They all treat me like an heiress and I'm tired of it. I want to experience how people really are. I understand I may get hurt, heartbroken, upset, betrayed even. But I know that there will be happier times where I will have the time of my life with friends that accept me for who I am.
Though the duration of the month, after school I recieved extra-curriculum on how to live independantly. Being of a rich background, I never learned how to cook, sew and all the daily chores I would never have to do in my life, leaving all the back-breaking work to the maids and butlers of the mansion. I leared everything so I could live without having my father worry too much. I also asked my father not keep a butler, maid, chef and security living with me, as the apartment was not too big but liveable under my standards. He insisted I have Virgo take care of my needs and visit on a daily basis. She would visit every other day to make sure I am well and safe.
My apartment is on the third floor and the landlady being pretty strict about noise levels, but it wouldn't matter as I was not planning to hold a party any time soon. It has a plesant view of the streets below with a river that was right outside and the market and shopping district were not far from where the building was. I could walk to the park on the way to school and drop by the market to shop for dinner. Lucky! I found the perfect place that suits my needs and even better than I imagined. I will start attending Fairy Academy on Monday so I can have the weekend to tour around town. I chose Magnolia because it was a place where not many people whould know me for my status. I would just be known as Lucy Heartfilia and hope they would not dig into my background when I mention my last name.
I look around the room and I have my uniform ready next to my bed on a hanger and my closet full of my favourite clothes. I walk to the fridge and it seems a bit empty. I'll need to stop by the market later. My allowance was pretty big since father was worried I would not have enough to spend but with the rent already covered, I have way to much than I need. I look at the book I was working on until I got writer's block again yesterday night. *sweatdrop* I still can't think of anything to write. Maybe I should tour the town first and hopefully get an idea along the way.
I pack my bag and head out. First I dropped by the shopping district and found this really cool necklace with a dragon holding an aqua coloured bead like it was a treasure that was equal to his life. It was nicely made so I got it as a welcoming gift for myself, celebrating the start of a new life, even though I have a little less than 2 years before I return to my previous life and take on the responsibilities as an heiress fully. I am not of age yet, being 16, so I only had to learn the material to live up the standards of an aristocrat.
After shopping and bought a cute shirt and skirt that went really well with the shirt and necklace, I went to have afternoon tea. It was a very pleasent restaurant with a patio in the front and I sat on the patio with the sun shining bright in the sky and the wind blowing through my hair while sipping at a cup of Darjeeling tea. It was very calming. It was far different than sitting in the private garden back home where it was quiet and in a sense, empty. Here, the streets were busy with people getting their duties done for the day so they can spend the friday night with their families. It was noisier, but it felt nice. The atmosphere was nice, the people were friendly and gleeful and most of all, the people acted... natural. Back home, only a few maids and butlers acted natural around me because I grew up with them tending to me. The others that don't serve me specifically and do other duties, act very formal and almost as if they had a split personality. One was themselves, and another to serve and tend to the Heartfilia family. I didn't like that.
When I left the restaurant, I went to the market and got a few ingredients to make a simple but satisfying dinner. It was early in the day for dinner preparations so there were not as many people there. I befriended an old merchant who was a wife of 2 kids who attended Fairy Academy. I then realized it was a good idea to look around the academy to familiarize where specific buildings were. I should also stop by the park on the way there. Its been a while since I got to swing in a park.
I got to the park which was not to far from the market and was in the middle of the path I would take to school and from school on a regular basis. It was a nice park btu there was no one there. I look at the time on my watch which read 5:10. I'll stop by for 10 min so I can take a trip to the school before I go back to make dinner. It won't take long. I sat on a swing and stared into the sky deep in thought of how my life would change after leaving the comforts of home. I'll be alright. I started to get up when I saw a group of people walking into the park. A pink haired guy, dark blue hair guy and a red haired girl. They look the same age as me. Then a blue hair girl, younger than me by a year or two, showed up. They were chatting when they entered the park. Suddenly, the pink haired guy stopped in his tracks and stared in my direction. I turned my attention to him and our eyes met.
tomboy-otaku: How was it? I think this project will take awhile for me to put all my ideas in but who knows~
