"See you later Dad!"

"Have a great day Lucy!"

Ahhh, what a beautiful day. Hi! My name is Lucy Heartfilia and I am a senior at Fairy Tail Academy, the most prestigious high school in all of Fiore. I enjoy writing, singing, reading books, and hanging out with my two best friends Levy and Juvia. I have straight long, blonde hair and big, golden brown eyes. I am super curvy with what some deem the 'perfect hourglass figure'. I get told on a daily basis how girls are jealous of my figure, well I will gladly give it to them. It's actually pretty hard to shop with a body like this. But anyway, I guess that's about it when it comes to me.

I am currently on my way to school for another day of learning. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and the cool breeze sure feels nice in this August heat. It never feels this good outside. It seems today couldn't go wrong...

"Hey Lucille."

Haha just kidding, the universe hates me.

"Hi Lisanna…"

Standing in front of me is the gorgeous, thin white haired beauty named Lisanna Strauss. She is one of the most popular girls in all of FTA. She is also my sworn enemy. Now don't get me wrong, I don't particularly hate the girl, more like dislike with an immense passion. Yeah, that sounds better than hating someone. We actually used to be friends… ok that was an understatement. In Kindergarten, she let me borrow a crayon. That was the nicest thing she has ever done for me. That was 12 years ago. You can see why I might be a little…um….hesitant towards liking her.

"So, alone as usual. Don't even have friends to walk to school with. Awe, how sad. You should try to be more like me, Lucille. I mean I have friends for everything and not to mention a super-hot boyfriend, but that's also another subject you wouldn't know about." Lisanna smirked while her 'super-hot' boyfriend walked up to join his girlfriend at her side.

Natsu Dragneel, FTA's quarterback, point guard, catcher, plus some other stuff. Basically, he is the school jock. He is tall, muscular, tan, and has the most piercing onyx eyes I have ever seen. But the feature that stands out the most on the jock is his unruly, pink hair. Yeah, PINK! It would be a laughable trait if he wasn't so attractive with it. With his girlfriend being the school's head cheerleader, they are called the king and queen of Fairy Tail Academy. I want to laugh at my luck this morning.

Normal POV:

Lisanna turned to Natsu and gave him a big kiss, right in front of Lucy. She turned to the blonde with a satisfied grin, "Don't worry Lucille, maybe when your older you can have a chance at love. They say that the older you are, the easier it gets. You still have a ways to go but you will get there one day. Actually I don't see it at all. I was trying to be positive for you, but it just isn't working." Natsu gave her a look before looking at the blonde.

Lucy POV:

Ohh she's going light on the insult today, must be in a good mood. "Well, glad to see you're so chipper this morning. This has been fun. Really, I look forward to seeing you every day at this time. I commend you on being punctual. I really value all of the insight you have when it comes to my life. I can't thank you enough. Now, if you will excuse me, I'm just gonna go. Bye."

I didn't get as far as I had wanted before I felt something (more like someone) trip me. I fell face down, luckily my hands reacted and caught most of the fall. My backpack flew to one side and my phone flew to the other. I turned to sit on my but while checking out the damage my phone and my hands received.

Good, not much. My dad would kill me if I messed up another one not to mention if I showed up with a bunch of scratches on me…again. I looked up to see Lisanna laughing merrily at my expense.

"Oh, that was so good! See you around Lucille. Try to walk a little, K?" And with that Lisanna started walking towards school.

I just sat there staring at the back of the girl. "Gotta say, she is in a good mood today." I looked at my phone to see that I still had 30 minutes to get to school. As I looked up from my phone, I noticed a rather muscular hand in front of my face. "Need some help?"

All I could do was trace the hand back to its source. Natsu was looking at me with genuine concern and asking me a question. "Um….Sure?"

I took his hand and he lifted me off the ground. I don't think I have ever felt such natural heat coming from one person. I let go of his hand to grab my backpack. "Thanks for the help." I turned and started walking towards FTA. Suddenly, I felt a presence walking beside me. It was Natsu. I looked over at him to find him deep in thought. Why isn't he trying to catch up with Lisanna? "I'm sorry."

I blinked at him in surprise. "Sorry, for what?"

"For what my girlfriend did. I didn't know she was going to do that…"

All I could do was stop and hold my breath. He apologized? Buddy, I appreciate it, but it's not your fault. He stopped too and turned to look at me with a questioning glance, "Why'd you stop?"

"I'm sorry," I said as I started walking to where he was. We then picked up where we left off, "I just didn't expect an apology. She does this everyday so I guess I have gotten so used to it that it really doesn't bother me anymore."

Natsu shot a look at me that screamed, Are you serious? "She does this every day? I'm gonna have to talk to her…" I don't think I was supposed to hear that part. Oh well. At that point we were silent the rest of the way. I could tell he had a little more to say, but I didn't want to push him. Heck, I'm surprised he is even talking to me let alone walking with me. We arrived at the school 10 minutes later and stopped at the front entrance. I turned and gave him a sweet smile, just cause his girlfriend is a jerk doesn't mean that he is.

"Well, thank you for walking with me, although I am not sure why you did…and thanks for helping me up earlier. Um good luck with stuff. So yeah, bye." I then started walking to the front door of the school. Hopefully Levy and Juvia are here. I can't wait to see them.

"Wait!" Huh?

Natsu came running up after me. "What is your name? I know it's not Lucille. My name is Natsu." He gave me a lopsided grin and proceeded to extend his hand out towards me. I then blinked stupidly again for the second time that morning.

"Your right, it's Lucy. Haha, and I know who you are. I'm pretty sure everyone does."

I shook Natsu's hand and could feel the heat soaring off of it again. This guy's hand are like fire. Yet, it's surprising comfortable. I let go after we just sort of stood there for a while. He gave me another grin,

"Didn't realize I was so popular." He smirked and I just rolled my eyes. "Will I see you around, Lucy?"

I thought for a second,"Maybe. I guess that's up to your girlfriend. She might not like to see you talking to me. Now that I think about it, I probably should go before she shows up. See ya, Natsu." And this time I gave him a grin of my own. I left him to go find my friends. As soon as I left, I heard Lisanna walk up to him and berate him for not walking with her and instead walking with a no one like me. I giggled as I turned to see Natsu just taking her insults. He shot a quick glance my way and caught me looking at him. He gave me a small smile and I turned around to go find my friends and tell them about this weird morning.
