CHAPTER I- JUST THE FIRST DAY
It's barely six o'clock on a monday as the sun was just starting to rise when a pair of chocolate brown eyes fluttered open. The owner, a blonde haired 16 year old young lady, squinted her eyes a few times before letting out a cute yawn. One of her balled fists rubbed the sleep from her eyes as she twisted against the sheets of her overly large bed.
Meet Lucy Heartfilia, everyone. (Though you probably know her already) She is the fourth child and eldest daughter of Heartfilias. Her father, Jude Heartfilia, is one of the wealthiest and most renowned man in all of Fiore. Her mother, Layla Heartfilia, was a woman of grace and elegance, but she has passed away a long time ago. Lucy missed her terribly, being the one closest to her mother. She was the spitting image of the Heartfilia matriarch and had her mother's heart and mind too. But despite of her mother's absence, she had her father, grandfather and her four siblings to keep her company.
Stretching her body to her satisfaction, she let out a contented sigh. For a moment, she continued to stare at the dark blue ceiling painted with little white and yellow dots. Exactly like a starry night. She loved the stars, just like her mother did. To her, it's awfully calming. It was her own escape when she looks at the different constellations.
She tried going back to sleep but failed at it so, without much of a choice, she got out of bed and went to take a bath.
It was her first day in a different school. She thought about it as she opened the faucet to the tub and waited for it to fill up. Before, she had been to one of those prestigious schools scattered around Fiore but recently, she decided that she has had enough of those people who think they're all high and mighty. Don't get it wrong, Lucy Heartfilia may be rich and famous but as high up as she is in the mountain of fame and fortune, her heart remained as kind and pure as it can be. Her mother taught them that.
Twisting the faucet off, she proceeded to undress herself before hopping in the warm water. She happily soaked herself in the huge jacuzzi-like tub and giggled like a seven year-old.
A couple more minutes later, she heard knocking on her bathroom door and a voice followed next, "Princess? You haven't fallen asleep in your bath have you?" Came the teasing voice of her trusty lady-in-waiting.
A smile crept onto the blonde's face. "I'm perfectly awake, Virgo." Lucy responded.
"Hm, that's good then. Breakfast will be served in fifteen minutes." Lucy could practically hear Virgo's actions.
The pink haired woman had been her nanny ever since she could remember and she loved her dearly, almost like family. She heard faint footsteps and then a door quietly open then close.
'So far, this day is doing great...'
When she made her way into the dining room with her stuff, the whole family was already there, comfortably seated on their own designated seats.
"Finally, sleeping beauty's awake!" A young man of pale blonde hair exclaimed with a charming smirk. It was her brother, Sting Heartfilia. Sting has a look that can be perceived as a bad boy but in reality, he's a really sweet fellow who loved his family ever so dearly. He's also very protective of his sisters, just like every other male in his family.
"Good morning, dear." Another man of dirty blonde hair, although his was perfectly combed back, greeted Lucy with a smile.
"Good morning daddy, grandpa, everyone." Lucy greeted with her own smile that could mock the stars with its brightness.
"Good morning sweetheart!" Her grandfather greeted back with a grin. Makarov Dreyar was a short man with a sharp look, but he was really sweet and spoiled Lucy and her younger sister, Michelle, the most. He was a bit strict with Lucy's brothers though, but he loves them all equally, like a grandpa would.
Lucy took her seat beside the youngest member of the family, Michelle Heartfilia. Out of all of them, Michelle had the darkest color of hair. Instead of the trademark blonde like Lucy and Layla or dirty blonde like the males, hers was nearing the shade of a chestnut color.
"Nee-san, did you get a goodnight's sleep?" Her sweet sister asked with a smile. Michelle had been very, very attached to Lucy even before their mother died. Whatever Lucy did, she would do and wherever Lucy went, she would go. She's basically her older sister's tail. She idolizes her sister that much and loves her even more. The same goes with Lucy.
"I did Mi-chan! And I've had this wonderful dream about my new school and everything," Lucy happily went on.
"Are you really sure of your decision sweetheart? You could always go back to Raven Tail. Or you can go to Sabertooth with Sting." Jude suggested.
"Daddy, we've talked about this. I've already decided I'm going to Fairy Tail High." Lucy enthusiastically told the man of the house.
"Well if you insist. Don't say I didn't warn you." Her father teased.
Lucy shrugged, "What's there to be afraid to? It's not like it's a messed up school." She defended.
They then heard grunt of accordance from Grandpa Makarov. "Lucy's right. It's not like it's all messed up there. I am the headmaster after all." The old man proudly said with a grin as the rest of the occupants of the room sweat-dropped.
"That's what I'm worried about, dad. You might spoil your granddaughter too much that it may cause issues in the school." Jude said.
"Nonsense. I swear on my grave, I will not give any special treatment. I have pledged my loyalty to the school and the students. Besides, it's not like our dear Lucy needs it. She's already doing great passing her classes with flying colors! Always on the top of the list, eh?" The little old man let out a hearty laugh at this.
"Besides, Laxus and Loke are in the school with me, daddy. What could go wrong?" Lucy stated.
The air suddenly grew silent after she said that. Laxus Heartfilia, though he'd rather be called Laxus Dreyar, is Lucy's eldest brother. Why use Dreyar? Coz' for him Laxus Heartfilia sounds sissy and Dreyar is just way cooler. Without giving it much of a thought, his father let him do just that. Laxus does get into loads of trouble and fights. This way, when Laxus pays a quick visit to the prison (before his dad or grandad bails him out), the Heartfilia name wouldn't be under the lime light... Well... Sort of.
Laxus may be bad-boyish, has a well built physique and all, but above everything else, he loves his family and the few he considers his friends dearly, much like Sting does. He also is very protective of his sisters, almost biting the head off of every male who dared lay a gaze on his divine sisters.
Loke, on the other hand, was much like Lucy and Michelle, given the circumstances. The orange-haired gentleman slash playboy of the Heartfilias. He's smart, downright handsome and is, without a doubt, a professional sweet talker and flirt.
That's pretty much the brief summary of who he is.
"Err, oh! These are really good Ms. Spetto!" Lucy awkwardly stuffed the bread in her mouth. Her cheeks were a bit pink.
Her brothers gave out a deep chuckle at their sister's reaction and grinned. "Don't worry sunshine. There's no harm done." Laxus told her. Lucy turned to look at him and smirked, her cheeks still flushed.
The rest of the breakfast was went on and before they knew it, they were all packed up and ready to go.
"Grandpa? Can I take the ride with you? Capricorn's out for today and my car's at the repair shop." Lucy asked her grandfather.
Makarov smiled at his granddaughter and nodded, "Of course my dear! Now shall we?"
"Wait! Gramps! Can I carpool too? My car's with Lucy's car in the shop." Loke grinned sheepishly.
"Why not? Hn? What about you Laxus? Are you riding with us?" Grandpa Makarov asked.
The gray-eyed young man just shook his head no and smirked.
"I've got my motorbike Pops and I have something to pick up before heading out to school."
The old man nodded at his grandson before saying, "Very well then. Drive safely and don't be late!"
And with that, they were all off. The ride to Fairy Tail High was not that long. It can actually be a walking distance. But the Heartfilia estate was just so huge that it would practically consume the time.
'Fairy Tail.. Here I come!' -Lucy thought to herself as she stared out of the window and the school came to view.
"Ok then kiddos. Here are your schedules!" Makarov said, holding out two piece of papers to his grandchildren just as they were about to hop off the car.
"Grandpa! I thought you said no special treatment?" Lucy playfully scolded.
The old man just shot her a grin, "It's your first day. It can be overlooked. Just don't tell your father about it." He told them.
"Ok, ok, off you go now!" He shooed them, but not before Lucy giving him a light peck on the cheek, a thing she and her sister had done the rest of their lives.
"Bye grandpa! See you later!" She waved and walked off with her brother. "Laxus! Take care of your sister! And stay out of trouble young man!" Makarov yelled out as the young blonde man nodded in response and walked off with Lucy. As soon as they were out of ear shot, the short old man sighed and muttered,
"They grow up so fast."
"Ne, nii-chan, you don't have to accompany me. I'm a big girl now. I can take care of myself." Lucy proudly told her brother. But Loke just shrugged.
"My classes start an hour after yours does so you don't have to worry about me being late, Lucy. So let me just my little sister to her room, ne?." He replied with a charming smile. Lucy just sighed, albeit, with a smile too and said nothing.
It was the first day of school so it was bound to be crazy, loud and wild. But every now and then people, mostly girls, would stop and stare at the duo and it made Lucy uncomfortable.
"Don't mind them, Lucy. They're just probably thinking you're one of my flings." Loke muttered under his breath.
Lucy's eyes widened like saucers. "WHAT?! And I shouldn't mind them then?!" She exclaimed. This made Loke burst out laughing.
"Just kidding, little sis." He told her while ruffling her hair with his big hands. Lucy playfully swatted his hands away as they continued walking.
Soon, they both came to a stop and Lucy took a peek inside the room. It was already packed with students who were talking animatedly with each other. Lucy can tell that they already knew each other and a cold feeling suddenly rushed through her.
"Now I feel nervous..." She muttered under her breath.
"Do you want me to wait with you here until your teacher arrives?" Her brother suggested.
He knew Lucy wasn't a fan of being the new kid in town, but, nevertheless, Lucy shook her head no and swallowed the lump in her throat.
She looked him in the eyes and smiled, "I'll be fine, nii-san. Thanks for walking me here. See you later." She told him as she took a deep breath and opened the door.
As she did, the room fell silent and everyone was staring at her.
'Calm down Lucy. They probably just thought you were the teacher.' The young blonde thought to herself as she made her way to an empty seat.
If she was actually paying attention to who they were staring at, she'd notice it wasn't just on her, but on her brother as well. They all knew Loke. The number one male that every girl has on her have-to-date list. He was the shinning star of Fairy Tail High's Top Models and had a solid reputation of dating hordes of women.
The said man ignored their stares as he waited for his sister to take her seat and when she did, she placed her things down and looked back at Loke. She smirked mischievously and made a shooing gesture with her hands to her brother. Loke can't help but smile a bit at his sister's childishness, yet, he obeyed her and went off.
'Dotting Loke-nii...' Lucy thought to herself, quite satisfied that her brother left already.
After fixing her stuff up, she found herself staring out the window and was birds fly by every now and then. Nobody seemed to notice her and ta-
"Hi there! Haven't seen you before. Are you possibly new here?" A girl of light blue haired bound by an orange headband suddenly came to her view. The girl smiled at her widely so Lucy smiled back,
"Hello. Yeah, I'm actually a transfer student. Nice to meet you uhmm..."
"Levy." Levy said cheekily as she held out a hand.
Lucy's smile widened and shook Levy's hand.
"It's nice to meet you Levy. My name's Lucy." Levy leaned in closer as she asked with a mischievous look,
"So Lucy, charming Loke Heartfilia on your first day. Aren't you quite the hottie!" Levy grinned and snickered.
This caused Lucy to blush in embarrassment.
'They really think I'm dating Loke?!' She thought to herself.
"No, no, no. You got it totally messed up. Loke is my brother and he just accompanied me here because I might get lost and all." Lucy explained sheepishly with a smile.
This revelation earned her a pair of shocked hazel eyes and an 'o' shaped mouth.
"Eh?! L-Loke is your b-brother?! So that means you're Lucy Heartfilia?" Levy exclaimed catching the attention of every other student in the room.
Lucy slightly squirmed in her seat with an apparent blush on her cheeks.
"E-eto... You could put it that way." The blonde shyly told her.
"Well that clears up everything!" Levy grinned at her new-found friend.
'I never would've thought Loke to have a younger sister. Oh well...' The hazel eyed girl mentally told herself.
"So, Lucy, how is yo-" A loud bang interrupted their conversation and everyone turned to the door and found a pink haired boy marching in the room with a thousand watt grin.
"Ohayo minna!" He greeted ever so loudly.
They heard a scraping of a chair and turned to see a dark-haired student glaring and raising a fist at the new comer while he shouted,
"Oy Natsu! Don't be so loud! The day's just beginning for crying out loud!"
The pink haired boy, now named Natsu, glared back at him and raised his fist too, "You're one to talk Gray! Wanna settle this one right now?!"
In a blink of an eye, both boys were towering each other and somehow, in the midst of everything that happened, the dark haired one managed to strip off his upper uniform causing one of the girls, a blue haired one with blue eyes, to enter a fangirl mode.
"Gray-samaaaa!" She shamelessly blurted out, her eyes literally turning to throbbing pink hearts as she wiggled like the typical fangirl.
Everyone was ecstatic to see the tension building up between the two but both of them ignored the whistles and yells to fight. They just kept growling and glaring at each other. Lucy stared at them for a while, quite surprised at the commotion. In her old school, it wasn't nearly as exciting as this was.
'And it's just the first day of school!' She yelled in her mind.
Mustering up enough courage, she stood up and proceeded to the two boys, determined to stop them from whatever they were about to do. She didn't know how futile her efforts would be and Levy even tried to warn her but the warning fell on deaf ears. Lucy made her way to the two,
"Oy, oy, both of yo-AHHH!"
She didn't have the time to dodge as both boys tackled each other with their fists. For a moment there she was safe and the next couple of seconds came too fast for her to react in time. Both males accidentally bumped into her very hard that she lost her footing and tumbled over, hitting her forehead on a corner of a desk in the process.
"Lucy!" Levy was the first one to react as she was at the blonde's side in a matter of seconds. The Heartfilia princess had her face in her palm as she sat up with a pained moan. Everyone was turned their attention to her, concerned and nervous. Natsu and Gray immediately froze in their tracks as they both realized they hit the blonde.
"Lu-chan? Are you alright?" Levy asked, trying to steal a look at Lucy's face.
"A-ah. I'm fine Levy... Just..." She said, removing her hand from her face and gave Levy a smile but as the blue haired girl saw Lucy's bloodied face, a gasp escaped her lips.
"Somebody get Lucy to the infirmary now!" Levy yelled and this was when Lucy's eyes rolled back into the back of her head and she collapsed on Levy's arms. Natsu, who happened to be the nearest boy to Lucy, quickly slipped an arm at her back and beneath her knees and they rushed her into the infirmary.
Ok so maybe this went off a liiiiittle too long. Hmm, I should've probably cut it into two chaps. But... Oh well! Too late for that now. Anyways, so everyone? Did you like it? Did you like it? It's actually my first time posting a story soooo... I hope you like it! Thank you for reading and please review!
