Chapter One

"Sure, Sting, she's pretty cute." a pink headed male said to a blonde haired one. Sting gave him a quick look that signaled: You're insane. "Just cute? She's very cute, and very hot, Natsu." he responded.

The two young students were talking about a new student, who happened to be a girl. One that caught many people's eyes.

"Okay, okay, but aren't you dating Yukino?"

Sting let out a groan, "We're more like friends with a little benefits. ."

"But she won't hear me saying this." Sting then said with a serious tone.

"Okay, whatever you say. Now, shut up, she's coming now."

First, Sting was wondering who, then he turned his head to where Natsu was looking and saw it. A silver beauty, who smiled brightly, was walking to the two boys. However, someone was trailing behind her, and they couldn't exactly see her due to the book she was holding in front of her face.

"Sting!" she called out, running to him.

When she came over, she engulfed him in a tight hug.

"Hey, Yukino. ." he said, hugging back. And when they let go, everyone waited till the other person reached the lunch table.

"So, who's the other girl?" Sting asked, curiously. Yukino waited till she got to them before letting out a small cough.

"Lucy!" she said loudly to get her attention. Natsu let out a surprise, and awkward cough.

The girl pulled down her book quickly and with a shy smile, she greeted them.

"Hey, Lucy." Natsu replied casually, he had already met her. They were in the same class.

"Oh, you know her?" Yukino questioned, raising her eyebrows. The two boys nodded, "We're in the same class." Sting explained. Yukino nodded, and sat herself on Sting's lap.

Lucy noticed this and thought of something; "You know, for a being "just friends" you're awfully close." Lucy told them, with gleaming big brown eyes.

Yukino blushed furiously, "Uh. ." she trailed on, not sure what to do. Sting's blush was light, but still noticeable.

A laugh escaped from Lucy's mouth, and when it did, Sting couldn't help but missing it when it was gone.

"Uh, well, where are the others?" Yukino asked, trying to let the awkward atmosphere to go away.

"Here we are!" a deep voice shouted behind where Yukino, Sting, and Lucy were sitting.

"Yo," the person greeted when he sat down with them; followed by other students.

"Hi, Gray." Lucy said, with a large smile. Out of all the boys, she got to know Gray the most. Gray grinned back and moved his tray over to beside her, along with moving himself too.

Then, when everyone has sat down, the table blew into questions and chatter to Lucy.

"What school did you go before this, Lu-Chan?" Levy, another person Lucy got to know well, inquired.

"Oh, I was home schooled actually,"

"Do you have a boyfriend, my princess?"

"Stop it, Loki, you're annoying her- and me."

Loki's mouth went into a thin line.

"No, and it's okay, Erza."

"Hey, Luce, is it okay if I call you Luce?"

Lucy shrugged, she could care less what nickname was given to her.

Eventually the questions were all answered and people could see Lucy was getting tired.

"Y'know, I think for someone who has been home schooled, you're quite charismatic." Gray whispered, as everyone's voices over powered his.

Lucy smiled, "Really? I think I just got lucky."

Gray chuckled, "Could be, you're name is Lucy, which from my calculations, is derived from lucky." Lucy laughed again, and once again, it got stuck in Sting's ear.

"Clever, clever, Mr. Fullbuster." she said .

Many of the students at the table were watching the scene, some giggled and a few wondered if the school's most famous couple will soon be born.

"I know I am, now don't talk to me, I want eat my ice cream before it melts." Gray told her. Lucy giggled, and averted her to the right, away from Gray.

But, even if it was a mistake, her eyes met Sting. And, neither of them could look away.

"Hey, are you guys having a staring contest? I want to join!" Natsu said, grinning.

Sting and Lucy finally looked away from each other, not saying anything.

"Hey, that's not fair. You guys stopped playing when I wanted to." he hissed, crossing his arms. Mirajane who sat right next to him laughed, and patted his back.

Lucy found this adorable and smiled. Then she glanced over at Sting, who was now staring at Yukino while she talked. After that, she stood up; making others look at her.

"Where are you going?" Gray asked, finishing his last gulp of ice cream.

"I'll be going to the changing room early, see you later." she answered, grabbing the book in her hand and walking away.

"I should probably go with her. . I have her gym clothes." Levy muttered, then got up to follow behind her.

Her petite legs ran fast for once and she caught up to Lucy quickly.

"Levy-chan!" Lucy exclaimed, surprised, when she say the blue blob pop up right beside her.

Levy panted a couple times, then stood straight.

"Whoa! What a work out!" Levy shouted, stretching a little.

"Uh, what are you doing here, Levy-chan?" Lucy inquired, walking ahead still. Levy followed her, and they both walked out of the cafeteria shoulder to shoulder.

A couple of moments passed before she answered Lucy's question, "I have your uniform,"

"Oh really, I was about to go to the office to retrieve it,"

"Mirajane told me to hold it for you,"

"Well, where is it then?"

Levy unzipped her bag, and reached into it. Lucy could hear hard cover books smack against each other, and that was the only thing she heard a for a little.

"Wait. ." Levy mumbled, still digging in her bag, Then, finally, she pulled out a neatly folded white shirt and and very short red pants.

Lucy took it from Levy and unfolded it.

"Shoes?"

"Right. ." Levy dug into her bag again, then pulled out a pair of brand new white shoes. "Here!" and then she placed it in Lucy's empty hand.

"Now, let's go to the changing room." Levy said, moving her feet before Lucy can even lift hers.

The two walked through the empty hallway full of lockers and a few doors, before reaching a two doors; a pink one and a blue one. But right before Lucy could open the pink door, Levy stopped her.

"That's the boys dressing room." Levy drawled, as if she has said this so many times.

Lucy's two eyebrows raised up, and she stood still.

"Natsu back when he was a seventh grader, decided that it he should represent the male students, and his hair and this door and. . Yeah." and that was all Levy had to explain to Lucy for Lucy to understand.

Then, in silence, the two girls entered a room through the blue doors.

"But, why is the girl's changing room blue then?" Lucy asked, as she took of her shirt.

"That's because Gray, who use to think he could get any girl, marked the door as his territory. It really was a crazy, and fun childhood. ." Levy said, but something on how she said the last line made Lucy wonder. It seemed as if it was no longer fun, just crazy, after that.

It became silent again, and the girls undressed and dressed themselves in different directions.

Lucy faced a yellow wall, full of sharpie writing and some drawings made of colorful markers.

Only a few words and pictures really got Lucy's attention though.

"Many of them are from the previous decades of students, so majority of those aren't ours." Levy explained, tying her shoe lace.

Lucy nodded, then she did the same as Levy.

"Lunch is almost over, we should go to the field now." Levy said, looking at the analog clock above the blue door.

"Yep, because if we don't, I'll lose you in the crowd." Lucy joked, making Levy playfully glare at her.

Then, when they were sure everything was on them correctly, they walked back to the hallway and to the last door at the end.

Just when they got there, the school bell rung and students in seconds flooded the corridors.

Lucy and Levy ran out of the school and over to the field.

They sat at the empty benches, and waited for their friends to finish changing and join them.

Eventually, after a few minutes, a large group of students entered the field and sat down on the bleachers.

"Hey, Luce." Natsu greeted, sitting right next to her.

A blush formed on Lucy's face when she felt his warm, and maybe a little to warm, skin rub against hers.

All their friends sat around Lucy and Levy, and there was a loud chatter until a large, buff man came out with a clip board.

"My name is Coach Gildarts for those who don't know, and I'll be putting you kids into pairs!" he shouted, scaring Lucy for a moment.

Coach Gildarts looked at his clipboard, then back at his students.

"First pairing, Yukino and Natsu!"

Sting, who was sitting next to Natsu growled lowly, "Better not try anything."

Natsu shrugged, knowing Sting was the jealous type. Natsu stood up and so did Yukino, they both walked together, behind the coach.

After that, Coach Gildarts continued with the pairing. Starting with Erza and Jellal next, and ending it with Sting and Lucy.

Everybody stood shoulder to shoulder behind the coach, and waited for him to tell them what they were going to do.

Gildarts turned around and faced them with a smirk, "You'll be going against each other! Starting with racing, now go to the start line."

And everyone did as told, though many boys also had a smirk on their face. Only a few girls held their head high with confidence.

"Okay, we'll start with. . Erza and Jel-"

"But, Coach, wouldn't it be better to go as fours?" Lucy unexpectedly spoke up. "Like, two pairs go against each other, wouldn't that be faster?"

Gildarts thought about it, he thought about how the faster the class, the faster he gets to see his daughter; who was also a teacher.

"Sure, Lucy. Why don't you and Sting go against these two!" Gildarts informed, waiting for her to stand beside Jellal. Which she did, along with Sting.

"Okay, so when I say go, go to the 100 meter line! Got it?"

All four nodded.

"I'll go easy on you," Sting whispered, getting into his stance.

Lucy rolled her eyes, "No need." she responded, annoyed with the cockiness in his voice. Sting was taking off guard for a moment, then he returned back to normal when he heard a, "Ready, set,"

All the students dressed in gym clothes watched, some even put bets with each other on who would win.

Erza look at the other three and let out an easy breath.

She may not be as fast as Jellal, but she sure was hell that she was faster than Sting.

"Go!" Gildarts yelled.

The moment they passed the start line, Lucy was behind everyone.

Then, a little before they others reached the finish line, she dashed past Erza and Sting, and finished the 100 meters right behind Jellal. Erza's mouth was parted open; to breathe, and due to the shock. Sting's piercing blue eyes were wide. Also, Jellal was just as surprised as everyone.

But Lucy was simply stretching out her legs, barely panting for air.

"What . . the. . Heck. ." Sting groaned, falling back onto the hard groan. The only girl to ever beat him in a race was Erza, but now there was also Lucy.

Gildarts had a wide smile, he saw this coming. However, he also felt a pain in his heart as he watched Lucy race; it resembled a person he once loved.

"Great job, Lucy! You're very quick, just like her." He praised. Lucy gave him a strange look, as she was confused on who the comparison was.

"Like who, Gildarts?" a certain man asked, popping out of no where.

"Ah, hey, Gramps!" Gildarts said, ignoring his question.

Usually, the principal would have got angry at his nickname, but this time, his face was serious. "Gildarts, I would like to speak to you." he told him, his eyebrows scrunched so tightly that it looked like he had a unibrow.

"Oh, he's in trouble. .!" Natsu croaked, while laughing. Even though it wasn't funny, it was funny to him. Gildarts was always the big man, and rarely was seen in the office of Makarov, the principal.

Gildarts shot a quick glare at Natsu, and walked behind Makarov to the office.

"For now, children, go do whatever you want on the field!" Makarov yelled, while walking still.

When they were almost out of site, everyone crowded Lucy.

"How did you run so fast?"

"It's a secret,"

"Awe, come on, Lu-chan! Tell us!"

"I like to run a lot,"

And that seemed like a reasonable answer so nobody said anything about her speed.

When people started to form their own groups, Erza confronted Lucy.

"Hello, Erza." Lucy said with a small smile. Even though she had been at Fairy Tail high since this morning, she admired Erza a lot. Her beauty, intelligence, strength, a lot of things.

"Hello, Lucy, you're a second year, am I right?"

Lucy nodded. She expected more, though it looked like Erza was waiting for her to say something.

"And you're a third year! And though that's not a lot, I still feel like I'm so much less than you," and Lucy laughed, sitting herself down on the nearby grass.

Erza laughed too, and sat next to Lucy.

"I'm surprised you beat me,"

Lucy sat up straight, and looked up at the sky, "I'm just as surprised as you are, Erza,"

The two girls didn't say anything, because people were coming to sit next to them too.

To the left of Lucy was Erza, and to the right was Natsu. In front of her was Gray and Sting.

"So, you like to read?" Natsu asked, remembering that when she opened her locker not far from him, there was a large stack of books in it.

Lucy returned her head back to eye level, "Love it, do you?"

Instead of getting an answer, the group laughed.

"Natsu hates reading!" Gray croaked.

Lucy looked at Natsu for a conformation, and he nodded agreeing with Gray.

"I like action books though!"

"Correction, he likes manga, that's what he reads." Sting told Lucy.

"Who doesn't," Natsu said, rolling his eyes.

Lucy didn't say anything anymore, and she turned her head back at the sky. Gray and Natsu started to talk, or argue, and Erza watched the two boys carefully.

The only person paying attention to Lucy at the moment was Sting.

His eyes were on her, and this time, it was different. Normally, Sting would have gazed onto her breasts; and he was, but he was lost in the way it went up and down softly as she breathed. Sting was lost in the way her plump lips were ajar as she took light breaths, and how her shining eyes shined more when they didn't seem to be down in reality. He couldn't look away.

Sting was stuck, and he even knew it.

A/N: So yeah, that's it and I'm sorry if it wasn't what you wanted!

Review please!
