Chapter 1: Reunited

-x-

Her dull eyes stared at the front door before her. She finally decided to stop procrastinating and go outside. In someone else's eyes, it would've seem like it was a beautiful day. The sun was shining brightly, the sky was a perfect blue color, the grass was a beautiful green. However, to her, there was no beauty. All she saw was the sun, a blue sky, and grass. Nothing special. She made her way to school, staring in front of her with no expression.

Lucy had moved in less than a week ago. She lived by herself, but her father still payed for the bills; her mother was dead. Recalling on these facts, she let out a weak sigh. She had finally made it to school; it took her at least 10 minutes to walk there, despite the fact that she was a few houses down the street. Her eyes gazed up at the school. In all honesty, she was afraid to go inside, but then again she looked like a freak just standing there. Not that she really cared. Finally, she slowly made her way to school. She had already memorized her locker number. Unfortunately, it seemed as if there were many of the popular kids lockers next to hers. She waited until most of them had left to put away her backpack, and get out her class needs. Which was, for now, just a notebook and a pencil case. As she made her way to class, she glanced every now and then to the kids around her.

I used to be like them.

She frowned a bit, and entered the class. They were all chatting happily about what happened over the summer. Stuff like that didn't matter to her. Her summer was depressing, in other people's perspective. She wasn't able to do anything. She didn't want to do anything. She didn't talk to anyone. She didn't want to talk to anyone. She basically sat in her room, reading the one book she had, the one she had read at least 100 times. No exaggeration. When her mom called her down to meals, she came. After that, she'd go back up, and start to read again.

Now, I won't be able to be with anyone anymore.

Not that it really made a difference. She'd probably only eat when she was starving, and read the whole day. She was kinda getting tired of that book, but she didn't want to go out and get a new one. That meant interaction with others. There was no way she was doing that.

The teacher came in, and her spacing out stopped. Despite her condition, she could focus on the teacher. An idea popped in her idea. If she didn't want to read, she could study. That way, she could get even better grades! It was the first time in a very long time she had payed enough attention to something to actually get an idea.

Eventually the students settled down, and the teacher could start teaching. He first introduced himself. "I'm Mr. Freed, your Math teacher. I have some rules for you all to follow by. First, be on your best behavior. Second, turn in your homework on time. No excuses. Third, NO sleeping, passing notes, texting, or throwing things. If any of you break these rules, well... you'll see what happens. That's all. Now, to start on your lesson..."

For the next hour, he went on about Algebra stuff. Lucy payed attention and took notes. It was for studying. Nothing else. When class was over and Mr. Freed left, everyone got back to talking to their friends. I just stared, emotionless, at my books. She accidentally tuned in onto someones conversation.

"You should go over to her, if you're so worried."

"But isn't she kinda... scary? In a way..."

"Pshh. You all are such scaredy-cats."

"Oh? Then why don't you do it, flametard?"

"What'd you say, ice head?"

"Guys, stop it."

"Y-yes sir—I mean ma'am!"

Lucy smiled slightly—in her mind. They were entertaining. She wondered, though, who they were talking about.

"Okay! I'll do it!"

"You're always so full of energy, Natsu!"

Giggling was heard.

"You better go now, man."

Lucy was putting her stuff away, and was about to stand up, when she heard that statement.

No... He wouldn't... Don't get your hopes up, Lucy. Don't get your hopes up...

Footsteps. They were coming closer to her. She looked down, afraid. What was going to happen? She hasn't been approached since... that happened. She clenched her hands in shaky fists, eyes wide.

Stop... Don't come closer... No... I don't want this...!

Lucy quickly picked up her books and ran for it. She stopped once outside and went up against the wall, panting hard.

What was that? Why did I run? Why am I... shaking...?

Lucy picked up her hands and looked at them. They were shaking, a lot. She finally realized why.

I haven't been approached in so long... I got scared... frightened..

Tears appeared in her eyes.

No... I can't be seen like this... Where do I go? Where?

"Dude! She ran from you!"

Laughter.

"Shut up! I'm not giving up!"

"You really never do."

"Is that a complement?"

Laughter, again.

"Of course, you firebrain!"

"What'd you say, iceblock?"

"Guys, stop it NOW!"

"Y-yes Erza!"

Lucy frowned, and made her way to the ladies room. Hopefully, no one was there. To her luck, no one was. She looked at herself in the mirror – something she hadn't done in forever. Her eyes were red, as well as her nose and cheeks. Tears were slowly streaming down her face. She touched them, a bit surprised, but didn't show it.

Why am I crying?

She let out a soft sigh, splashed water on her face, dried, then went outside, her eyes closed.

I'm acting weird...What is with me?

The next class was about to begin. She was afraid to go back in there. In there were the guys who tried to get close to her. She couldn't handle that. Yet, she had to go to class. She didn't know what to do. Not a clue. She felt someone bump into her from behind. She looked up. There, standing before her, was a guy with black spiky hair, and dark blue, cold eyes. She quickly looked away and went into class, sitting in her usual seat, trying to act like nothing happened. It was easy. She had been doing it for years on end.

The next class, English taught by Ms. Evergreen, went by in a flash. Immediately, everyone got back to their gossiping. Lucy sighed, then accidentally tuned in on the same group from before.

"Dude. I bumped into her, and guess what? She looked back at me, and I realized, she really is cute up close."

Her eyes widened as she tried her hardest not to look over at them.

"Dude seriously? You beat me to it! You asshole!"

"Eh? You say something, hothead?"

"Hey! Don't ignore me you ice head!"

"Natsu, that wasn't ignoring."

"I don't care! It pissed me off!"

"If Erza were here she'd totally kill you!"

Giggling.

"Argh! I'm going to try again! You guys watch and see!"

Footsteps, heading toward her.

Closer...

And closer...

Until the boy was directly over her. She looked down at her desk, clenching her fists.

Don't look up. Don't look up. Be calm. Calm.

"Hey!"

She could hear the cheerfulness in his voice.

I used to have that same kind of feeling in my voice..

"Oiii! Anybody there?"

She looked away, ignoring him, staring outside the window.

His groupies laughed at him. "Haha! He can't even get her attention! What a loser!"

This is starting to get annoying...

"Well why don't try, you stupid blockhead?"

"Fine! I will!"

The boys switched places.

"Hey. Remember me? I just bumped into you a sec ago. Got some time to talk?"

I never talk to strangers.

"See! You can't do it either!"

More laughter.

Tears came to my eyes.

Is that I am? A game? To believe I even...

I started shaking, both angry and devastated.

He started to talk again, but she cut him off by standing up quickly. She looked over at them, her tears starting to pour out.

"Is that all I am? Just a stupid game? You don't even know me! Back off and leave me alone!" she screamed and rushed out of the classroom.

I don't know what to do.

Where do I go?

How do I even face anyone again?

I was just trying to live here without being noticed.

That's all been ruined!

It's their fault!

It's all their fault!

She slammed her hands against a wall, completely destroyed. She fell to the ground, sobbing.

I can't do anything. What's done is done. There's nothing I can do. It's over. It's all over!

She slammed her fist against the wall.

"Dammit... Damn it all!" she sobbed. She hadn't felt this way since that accident years ago, but this is only a fraction of the pain she felt then.

The students were let out of their classrooms for lunch.

I can feel them. They're staring. They're all staring at me.

She was grabbed by the arm and pulled into a close hug. Her eyes went wide.

What..? What is this? What the hell is happening?

She was too afraid to look up at the person who had captured her into a warm hug. Whoever it was grabbed her hand and began to take her somewhere. She closed her eyes tightly.

Who is this? What's going on?

They placed her against a wall, and started patting her eyes dry with a handkerchief. She waited until the person was done, and looked up. Her eyes widened.

No... no way...

The girl had messy blue hair with a hairband in it.

This... this can't be happening.

"Levy..?"

The girl smiled a bright smile. "You know it."

The tears returned to her eyes, and she hugged the young girl tightly. "Oh my goood! Levyyyy!" she sobbed.

Levy patted Lucy's back. "I'm here, Lu. I'm here..."

"Why are you here Levy?" Lucy asked between sobs.

"Remember when I moved away 5 years ago?" Levy asked.

Lucy nodded.

"This is where I moved, silly," Levy snickered, sticking out her tongue at her.

Lucy hugged her best friend again. "I had no idea!" she cried.

Levy patted her back. "I'm in the class next door to you, Lu. Just come over break any time you want."

Lucy, for the first time in years, smiled. And not just a plain old smile. It was a smile that was overcome with absolute joy, a smile that shined, like the sun that she didn't even take a second look at today.

"Well, we're going to miss lunch at this rate, Lu. Let's get going," Levy said, holding out her hand to Lucy.

Lucy nodded, that smile still plastered on her face, as they walked together into the cafeteria.

"Let's sit at a table for just the two of us, okay?" Levy offered. Lucy took that offer as they found one, and sat down.

"So, Lu, how's that singing going? How are Johnathon and the others?" Levy asked curiously.

Lucy looked down, her hair blocking her face.

"What? What's wrong? Did something happen?" Levy asked, surprised at her sudden change in attitude.

"Yes... something... horrible..." Lucy whispered. Then, she looked up with a bright smile. "But, let's not talk about that for now, okay?"

Levy looked at her friend with a worried expression. "Okay... if that's what you want, Lu.."

By the way her friend looked at her like that, Lucy could tell that she was more than worried. She was... it was hard to explain in words.

"Anyway, Lu. I heard you scream earlier. What happened?" Levy asked, though she knew it would be hard to discuss with Lucy, knowing her.

"These jerks were coming up to me and trying to talk to me. But that's not the bad part. They were treating it as a sort of game. 'See who gets Lucy to talk first,' I guess."

Levy rolled her eyes, letting out a 'psshh.' "Well, now you have me to talk to. You don't have to hold it all in anymore," she said with a large grin.

Lucy giggled. "Yea, you're right."

Suddenly, the bell rang. Levy and Lucy let out a groan, not wanting to separate. They gave each other a small hug as they neared their classrooms. They said their good-byes, and went back into given classrooms.
