Hey! So I was bored in school one day and thought of this. If you're waiting for the Hunger Games fic, then I'm sorry for the wait. I'm having a bit of writer's block with that story, but I have Spring Break coming up in two weeks so I'll hopefully be writing more then. I've been having a huge obsession with Gruvia lately, so I'm very excited to write more of this story. I intend on making is very long, by the way. Anyways, please enjoy!

The Girl With The Blue Hair

I kept my head down as I walked to school.

Why do I have to start now of all times?

I kicked a puddle with my foot and dug my hands in my jeans pockets. It was raining out, not that I minded, really. The sky was dark and gray, and I knew immediately it would be a long day today.

I hated being the new kid. Well, doesn't everyone? But the problem was it was halfway through the school year. Everyone already had friends and knows where they stand, and I had to be dropped in like a bomb and screw everything up. Which is why I had decided that I'd been the new kid and center of attention at this prison known as school far too long. This year, I wouldn't notice people and I won't be noticed.

Turns out my idea didn't work.

I rounded the corner of the path I was walking on and stopped once I saw the school. It was made of brick and extremely large, bigger than any of the schools I had ever gone to. And I had attended a lot of schools. Despite the rain, some people were outside talking to their friends under umbrella shaded picnic tables. Others were running inside complaining that the rain had messed up their hair. People were even picking fights.

Well, here goes nothing…

As soon as I stepped foot on the school campus, all the people who were talking to their friends abruptly stopped. They all stared at me, most them whispering to the people next to them.

"Who's that?"

"Isn't he the new student?"

"He's hot!"

"New student? I didn't know we were expecting anyone new?"

More and more whispers were heard as I scanned the crowd of teens. I put my head down and continued to walk towards the building when suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder. I spun around to find two girls and a boy. One of the girls had straight, scarlet red hair, the other had blonde hair in a side ponytail and bangs and the boy had… wait WHAT?

Did my eyes deceive me, or did this kid actually have pink hair?

I couldn't help myself from laughing. That's when I realized everyone was still silent. My laugh echoed through the mass of students.

The scarlet haired girl who had tapped me turned around and shouted, "WHAT ARE YOU ALL LOOKING AT?!" Everyone immediately went back to their business and soon the courtyard was filled with the buzz of conversation.

"Erza! You don't have to be so harsh!" the blonde said.

"I know but they were eavesdropping!" Erza said.

The blonde girl ignored Erza and turned to me, "Don't mind Erza, she can be a bit over-the-top."

Erza glared at the girl, "I am not over-the-top!"

Erza was ignored again. "Hi, I'm Lucy. This here is Erza," she gestured to the scarlet haired girl, who was still staring daggers at Lucy, "And this Natsu!" she said and pointed to the boy with the spiky pink hair. I couldn't help but laugh again. I mean, what kind of boy has pink hair!

Natsu looked mad, "Hey, what do you think you're laughing at!"

I contained myself and answered, "Your hair, that's what!"

Now he looked ready to blow his top. I could practically see fire in his eyes and smoke coming out of his ears. "Ouch, that's cold. Wanna go at it, Ice Man?"

I balled my hands into fists, "I'd love to, Hot Head!"

"STOP THIS AT ONCE!" I heard Erza shout. Natsu immediately lowered his hands and stood up straight with perfect posture. I copied him, apparently he must have been scared by Erza too.

Lucy laughed at us, then told me how she was the Student Council President. She said she was responsible for all new students, and Natsu and Erza were her good friends. Then she led me inside and showed me to the principal's office where I could pick up my schedule and a map of the school. Natsu and Erza left for homeroom while Lucy stayed a bit longer to make sure I was capable of finding places by myself.

"Are you sure you got this? It is a big school and people get lost all the time."

I reassured her that I was, in fact, fully capable of finding homeroom on my own.

"Before I go, I never caught your name," she asked me.

"Gray," I replied.

"Well, Gray, welcome to Fairy Tail!"

It turns out that I wasn't capable of finding my homeroom at all. Unlike this morning, people could care less who I was now. I tried asking people, but they were no help.

"Find it yourself," is what they kept saying.

One time I found these three girls and decided to ask them.

Big mistake.

"I'll tell you if you promise to go out with me," one said while twirling her chestnut brown hair in her finger.

"Hey! I called dibs on him this morning!" another said, this time with blonde hair that was obviously died.

The third one looked up at me and batted her heavily lined eyes at me, then started to argue with her two other friends about which one could ask me out.

I sighed and walked away.

I buried my head in the map and turned it upside down and back again.

Ugh! Why can't I figure this out? It's a freaking map, this shouldn't be so hard!

I scowled and concentrated to hard, I didn't see where I was going and tripped over someone. I got up and brushed myself off, then turned to see who it was I had tripped into.

It was a girl, and she was beautiful.

Her long, wavy, blue hair which had some raindrops in it from the weather, tumbled over her shoulders. Her skin was fair and her lips were pouty. She stood up and adjusted her blue, waist-tied coat, so I could see her thin figure. Dark, long eyelashes framed shining, dark blue eyes, and when they met my black ones, I inhaled sharply. I felt my heart beating fast, and I tried to apologize for tripping over her, but my voice wouldn't work. We just stood there, staring at each other for awhile and I could see a light blush forming on her cheeks.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you, I was just lost. Can you help me?" I asked her one my voice had returned. She nodded slightly and smiled. It gave me butterflies.

"I'm looking for room 22, do you know where I can find it?" I asked.

She pointed down the nearest hallway, "Sure, just go straight down this hallway and take a left. It should be the third classroom on the left." She said it meekly, as if she was shy. Then she looked back up at me. I could feel my face getting warm.

I almost couldn't speak again, but I managed a 'Thank you'. Not without stuttering like an idiot though.

She gave me a small smile again, then turned around and ran down the hall. I watched her until she turned a corner, then I sighed and leaned against the nearest locker. Her smile had given me butterflies again. And her voice was so soft and cute! She was just… so… mesmerizing! I could've looked at her all day.

Ok, that sounded pretty creepy. But still… uh! I started to smile like an idiot, and I probably looked like one too. Good thing there weren't any people around. I wouldn't want my first impression to be "Creepy".

Why is she making me feel like this! I've never really been interested in girls before. I was supposed to not be noticed and notice no one, but now the whole grade knows I'm the new kid and I already like a girl, or I think I like her. No, how can I possibly like her, I've only known her five minutes at most.

A bell sounded, interrupting my thoughts. I realized that it was probably the late bell. I was going to be late to homeroom on my first day here! I tried to clear my mind of her, but it wouldn't work. Even as I took off running down the hall, I couldn't stop thinking about that girl with the blue hair.

Wow, I really enjoyed writing in Gray's POV! Please write a review and let me know what you think! Bye!
