Lucy stared out the window. She honestly hated math class. It used to be so simple when she was younger, and then letters started getting involved and every paper she handed in looked like alphabet soup got spilled on it. She honestly was beginning to regret taking Calculus. She didn't even need it for her English major. Yet, here she was, taking the class that she barely understood last year in high school. She turned her attention back around the room to see how her classmates were faring. They looked to be in various states of attention. Some were asleep, some were furiously scribbling down everything that poured out of the professor's mouth, and others were also looking out the window. Lucy dropped her head down to her desk before feeling her phone vibrate in her pocket. She nonchalantly pulled her phone from her bag and checked the message. It was from Mira, her RA.

"Hey, Lucy, there's a new transfer student moving into the honors housing. Do you think you could welcome them later? I would do it myself, but Laxus and I have to attend a meeting for RAs." Lucy smirked at her phone before typing back.

"Sure, no problem. What time are they coming?" Lucy tapped her pencil while waiting for a response. Her phone vibrated after a few seconds.

"I think he's moving in at five. Dean Makarov said he didn't have a lot of things though," Mira had responded.

"Sounds easy enough. Don't worry, I've got it," she typed back. With a sigh she turned her attention back to the clock. Her class got out at 4:45, and now it was 4:40. She tried to will the clock to move faster. She banged her head on the desk when the clock didn't move.

"You okay?" the person next to her asked. Lucy looked up at the raven-haired boy sitting to her right.

"I'm just done with math," Lucy groaned.

"How? This is so interesting. I didn't know that infinity to the zero power wasn't zero! Totally ruined the last 13 years of math," Gray teased. "So who texted you?"

"Mira," Lucy replied, "apparently we've got a transfer and she wants me to show them around since she and Laxus have an RA meeting."

"An actual meeting or a meeting?" Gray asked with finger quotes around the second meeting.

"I don't know, and I don't really want to know," Lucy said with wide eyes. She knew that the two RAs on her floor were dating. Mira took care of the honors cluster of suites on the floor and Laxus took care of the regular people that hadn't made it their sworn duty in life to overachieve.

"So, what time is the new girl showing up?" Gray asked.

"It's a guy, and they're showing up at 5." Gray gave Lucy an incredulous look in response.

"What?" Lucy asked in confusion.

"It's a guy," Gray emphasized.

"So?"

"So? You know how Mira is when it comes to setting people up."

"That's not what this is. She doesn't even know what he looks like or what kind of person he is," Lucy defended.

"Mira knows all," Gray solemnly responded. Lucy was going to respond, but then the bell rang. Lucy threw her bag over her shoulder and picked up her textbook before heading to the door.

"Have fun meeting your future boyfriend," Gray teased.

Lucy stopped at the door and side stepped the swarm of students heading out before responding. "You're not heading back to the dorms? I thought this was your last class today," Lucy told him.

Gray sheepishly smiled, "There's a good in my marine biology class that wanted to study for a test we have on Monday."

"Suit yourself. I'll miss you at Friday game night," Lucy responded as she walked out the door. The other students had already cleared out minutes before. The only people still lingering were the professors and TAs. Lucy nodded to one of her classmates who was on the phone as she headed out into the chilly January air. She checked the time on her phone. She had ten minutes to make it back to the dorms before meeting the new guy. She wondered what he'd be like.

A/N: Okay guys, I don't know if I should keep going with this, so I wouldn't mind you weighing it. It'd be my first multi modern FT fic. The first multi lic I did for FT was Down the Rabbit Hole and that didn't get great reviews so I'm hesitant about this one.
