Fairy Tail does not belong to me. It belongs to Hiro Mashima.
Lucy POV
"You scum," sneered Lisanna while she kicked my gut. I laid there. With pain in my eyes, but no sound was coming out of me.
Lisanna and her drones, Juvia and Evergreen, kept kicking me. Punching me. And I hated it. I wanted to commit suicide. I wanted to grab a razor and slice open my wrist. Watching myself bleed out in the mirror. With a smile.
What did I do to deserve this Mama?
"Get up and patch those bruises," said Lisanna coldly. "If anybody asks, you fell." Then they walked out of school.
I got up and headed to the bathroom. I patched up my bruises and looked at myself in the mirror. Ugly. Was all I could think. I saw my huge black eye. I sighed. Then I headed out. I walked around the school building only to find a boy crouching down on the side of the wall with his head in between his knees.
Woah. Is he crying? Why is his hair pink? Does he go to our school?
I was so intrigued by him. Before I could process what I was doing, I was walking toward him. I sat next to him, waiting for him to look up.
"What do you want?" he said so icily with a hint of sadness.
I was taken back. I regain my composure.
"I just wanted to sit here. That's all."
"Could you just leave me alone," the boy said, sounding like he could break down any minute.
I didn't leave. One thing Mama taught me is to never leave someone who's in pain.
So I started to sing.
Smile, the worst is yet to come
We'll be lucky if we ever see the sun
Got nowhere to go, we could be here for a while
But the future is forgiven, so smile
He didn't look up. But his shoulders started to relax. So I sang some more.
We're trying so hard to get it all right
But only feel lonely at the end of the night
And I wanna be somewhere away from this place
Yeah, somewhere just a little closer to grace
I ended it there. We were silent for a long time.
"You're a really talented singer," he said still not looking up.
"Thank you... uh what's your name? You never told me," I asked, hoping he'd look up.
"Natsu. Natsu Dragneel," he said looking up at me. He smiled shyly.
I blushed. He's cute. I feel so much happier when he smiles.
I smiled. "My name's Lucy... Madison." He can't know my real last name.
"That's a nice name. By the way, what happened to your eye, Luigi?"
"First of all my name's Lucy, I can't believe you already forgot. And second of all... I uh... fell," I said covering up with a smile.
Natsu first looked at me suspiciously. Then he smiled.
"You're so clumsy," Natsu said laughing.
I blushed again. He's so cute when he laughs.
We were silent. It wasn't an awkward silence. It was a good kind of silence.
"Aren't you going to ask me why I was crying at school?
"I believe in personal space."
"Well you'll might as well find out now that we're friends and all"
"Friends?," I asked. I never had a friend before! But he can't know that either.
"Yeah," Natsu said with a toothy grin.
"Ok. We're officially friends," I said with a smile.
"Awesome," Natsu started saying. "So now I'm going to tell you the reason I was crying..."
Hey guys! This was my first chapter ever so please tell me how I did. I deleted the last one because I didn't know how to edit your chapters (still new to this). This story will be full of sadness, drama, humor, and my favorite, romance. So please keep reading!
