Chapter 1: That's what she thought

'Mr. Famous, Mr. Teenage dream, Mr. Playboy? Seriously? Is that actually what people think about that guy?' Lucy thought as she glared over to the pink-haired boy sitting 2 desks away from her. He wasn't even paying attention to the teacher's lecture; instead he was staring out the window.

'Well of course he won't even listen. The hell, he's freaking rich!' Lucy remarked in her mind. She was practically the only girl in the entire school that didn't give a damn about Natsu Dragneel. Or at least that's what she thought. The blonde was so extremely pissed with Natsu it was just weird. Everything he did annoyed her. Every time he would try to start a conversation with her she would turn him down the coldest way possible.

The bell rang, signaling the students that the class was over.

Lucy gathered her books as quick as possible and stormed out the door.

"Oi, Lu-chan! Wait for me!" a petite blue-haired girl exclaimed behind her

"Levy?"

Levy stopped in front of her locker, which was next to Lucy's, on the left.

"Ne Lu-chan, what's up with you and Natsu?" Levy smiled

"What is supposed to happen? He is the most annoying person in the world!"

The blue-haired girl giggled "Then why were you staring at him during the entire class?"

Lucy's face turned scarlet "I-I-I-I wasn't watching h-him!"

Their conversation was interrupted by a certain pinkie. He stumbled on the way to his locker, which was next to Lucy's-on the right.

'Awesome! Now that idiot came.' The blonde frowned

"Well Levy, I'm off. I've got classes, bye." She mumbled, slamming her locker's door shut. Lucy walked quickly towards her classroom, but….

"Oi, Luce! Wait up!" Natsu yelled behind her.

She growled and increased her speed, but he quickly caught her wrist.

"What?!" The blonde exploded

"Well…" Natsu grinned "…we're on the same class. I thought its okay to walk there with you."

Lucy just sighted, ignoring him.

They walked in awkward silence. As soon as they arrived, they noticed there were no places left except for one double desk in the middle of the room.

'Great! Not only that I had to walk with him, but now I'm supposed to sit with him?!' Lucy's brow twitched.

Well she had no other choice so… The class started.

"Students, today I'm separating you in groups of two for my newest project. You have to make a report about one natural disaster of your choice."

'I have one natural disaster sitting right next to me.' Lucy thought while looking at Natsu with the corner of her eye.

"The list with the pairings is already up in the hallway." The teacher finished.

The class ended quickly and soon enough everyone was in the hallway, bumping around, trying to find out who they were paired with.

Lucy stepped forward and scanned the list.

Lucy Heartfilia and...

"NATSU DRAGNEEL!?" The blonde yelled in complete disbelieve.

"So…" An arm warped around her waist "guess I'm the lucky guy."

Lucy narrowed her eyes. When she turned to face Natsu, she was surprised to see or rather not see his grin. Instead he was looking at the list and seemed quite happy actually.

Lucy decided not to argue wit him. She gave in and asked

"So, what's our project gonna be about?"

Natsu suddenly let go of her waist and caught her hands. He was smiling brightly and that made Lucy blush.

'H-His hands are so big and warm and his smile…wait, what? What the hell am I thinking about?!' The blonde yelled at herself in her mind

"Hey Luce, wanna come to my place after school?" Natsu asked

Her blush got darker "W-Why?"

He raised his eyebrow "What do yo mean why? We have to work on our project."

"O-Oh, right."

"Mkay then, see you after classes!" He waved to her and ran off

Lucy was left in the hallway, surrounded by her classmates, blushing furiously.

Once she came back to her senses she started yelling at the students "Don't you have better things to do!? Leave me alone!"

…xXxXxXxXx…

Lucy barely noticed the rest of the day passing by. All that was on her mind was Natsu and that surprisingly didn't piss her off so much.

At the end of the day she was walking together with Levy.

"Lu-chan, what's with that rumor about Natsu-kun asking you out?" Levy asked

Lucy's face became beet red "W-Well he didn't exactly ask me out…"

"What then?"

The blonde lowered her voice "HeaskedifIwantedtogotohishouse."

"What?"

"He asked if I wanted to go to his house.."

Levy was about to start fangirling when Natsu interrupted them.

"Hey Luce, ready to go?"

"Y-Yeah, bye Levy-chan." Blondie stuttered

Natsu caught her hand and led her down the street. A few seconds later he released her hand. Lucy walked nervously and kept struggling with her heavy school bag. Natsu noticed it. He reached out and took her bag, carrying both his and hers. The blonde blushed while looking at him; he returned her gaze and smiled. The walk to Natsu's apartment wasn't long and soon they arrived. Lucy was amazed, because his place was huge. There was expensive furniture and all. Natsu sat on the couch and patted the place next to him for Blondie to sit.

"So, what's our project gonna be about?" he asked

"I-I don't know, maybe we could try with hurricane or something…"

Natsu frowned "Nah, I prefer forest fire."

"Ok, f-forest fire is good."

"Cool, let's get started."

…xXxXxXxXx…

They had been working for quite some time and Natsu decided to take a break. He went in the kitchen to grab a drink. The boy was gone for about 5 minutes, but when he returned he found Lucy sleeping on his couch. Natsu smiled at her and looked at the clock. 21:12.

"Huh, it's pretty late."

He went to the couch and took Lucy and carried her bridal style to his bedroom. The boy gently laid her on his bed. Soon he joined her and quickly fell asleep as well.
