That Boy Back Then..

"N-No! Do you have to leave..?"

He shook his head. "I'm sorry..."

"When will I ever see you..?"

"Maybe never... my dad is abusing me so I might live with another family ..."

"Wait... which family?"

"I don't know..."

"Well.. if you're moving someplace far away.. then I don't know what to do anymore.."

"I'm sorry... my dad is abusing me so I have no place to go..."

"Then come to my place!"

"They have an eye on me. If I run away, they'll find me... I'll be even further from home..."

"T-Then... I'll move with you..."

"No! You can't! You have to pay money for the plane fares and stuff! You can't do that!"

"Whatever it takes to be with you, I'm willing to go that far.."

"You're five.. you can't take those words seriously at an age like this."

"You're my best friend! I can't bare to see you leave! I'll sob in tears in a corner if you ever leave me like that!"

"You have Lisanna right?! You have a friend! I'll be back! I won't stay in a stranger's house forever!"

"Mm... yes..."

"Then talk to her..."

"When will you come back..?"

"When I'm old enough to come back... just wait... I'm going to come for you until then."

"N..N..Na-"

Chapter 1

A New Transfer Student?!

I opened her closet for my uniform. She smiled. Another brand new day...

I was finally seventeen... on July 1 ... I was finally seventeen...

"I wish we can wear our clothes to school instead of a uniform... I want to wear a dress to school..."

I sighed. "I hope Lisanna knows today is my birthday, as well as the others..." I then grinned at myself. "Okay! Time to start a new day!" She grabbed her bag and took a piece of bread and rushed out the door. "I'm leaving!" she shouted, as she shut the door behind her.

When I reached to the school gate, I saw white haired girls about to walk into the school. One had short hair, and the other had long. "Mirajane! Lisanna!" I ran towards them. "Good morning!"

Lisanna grinned. "Happy birthday, Lucy!" she said. "Happy birthday, Lucy!" Mirajane said, as the twins threw a hug and a present. "Aww thank you so much! You shouldn't have!" Lucy smiled. "I thought you would forget my birthday!"

Lisanna's jaw was open. "Psshh don't be stupid! We will never forget your birthday! We're your best friends!"

Lucy laughed. "You're right!"

Mirajane took off her shoes for her school ones and then she saw a note flying down. She picked it up.

"A love letter?" Lisanna smirked. Mirajane laughed. "Shut up, Lisanna!" she playfully hit her.

"It says that to meet him after class ends.. meaning.. around lunchtime.. ahh... I have something to do by then... anyway, I'm not wasting my lunchtime just to meet him... I'll meet him after school."

I laughed. "Mirajane, the same as always!"

I then walked over to her locker (mine is about 3 feet away from Lisanna's and Mira's) but I bumped into someone.

"Ahh!" I fell down to the floor, squeezing my eyes shut. "Hey.. watch where you're going, blondie!"

I slowly opened my eyes, seeing a pink haired guy in front of me. "Ah.. I'm sorry!" I tried to get my bag but he pushed it across the hallway. I got up and glared at him.

"Hey, what's your deal, salmon idiot!?" I asked, angrily. "Mira, can you get my bag?"

The pink haired guy sighed. "You bumped into me and you didn't apologize. What are you, an alien?"

I glared and kicked him in the legs. "What is wrong with you, idiot?! I apologized!" I threw my shoes in her locker and took my school ones, and walked off. "Mirajane, Lisanna, let's go."

They two followed me to the classroom. "Man... what's his problem..?" I complained to them as soon as we got to the classroom.

"He's probably in a bad mood. Hey.. is the pink haired dude a new transfer student?"

I then tried to remember the pink haired's details. "I don't remember seeing him here. Maybe.. he's probably just here for something. An idiot like him can't possibly be in a perfect school like this."

The school I go to is pretty peaceful and there barely came any bullies in school. There was one but she already graduated from high school when I was still on my first year of high school. The students here are really nice and there are never any bullies. We're usually pretty nice.

"If he didn't transfer to this school, why is he wearing our uniform?" Mirajane asked.

"Who?" Juvia perked up, scaring the three of us.

"JUVIA! YOU SCARED ME TO DEATH!" I screamed. Juvia laughed. "That was the point right? Anyway who are you talking about?" she seemed so perked up and excited about our talk.

"Well this guy... he turns out to be an idiot. We're not sure whether or not he transferred to this school," Lisanna explained, grinning. "I think he transferred here."

"Did not!" I exclaimed. "He cannot possibly come to this school and transfer here! He's a bully and he cannot be a student here!"

The principal always overlooks a transfer student's records of their schools and if they're a bully, he won't be hesitant about not letting the student enroll into the school.

"If he's a bully, obviously he shouldn't be at this school dammit!" I sighed. Listen up Lucy... You'll never see him for the rest of your life... Just don't make eye contact with him and you'll do fine... Just stay out of his business...

I smiled. "Well forget that idiot.. let's forget about him and let's get ready for class!"

Lisanna and Mirajane nodded slightly. They headed back to their seats as soon the bell rang for class. The teacher walked into the class and smiled. "Good morning, class."

Everyone muttered good mornings to him and I shouted, "GOOD MORNING MR. HOTZEL!" I didn't exactly shout but quite loud enough for him to hear me clearly. "Well... good morning, Lucy." He said, pushing up his glasses. He does not sound like a colorful person... as always.

"I'm going to take attendance now." he began to check on roll and Lisanna threw a note to me when the teacher was looking down to see who's absent.

I wrote back to her and passed it back. It was quite annoying for the neighbors so some tore up the note, knowing they will get punished by Lisanna and Mirajane.

"Alright.. so everyone is here... great..." He pushed up his glasses. He did not look extremely happy today. He looked... bored...

"So class... I like to introduce to our new classmate. This class is a bit small so I'd like to bring out Natsu Dragneel!"

I really wanted to point out that this was not a show but a classroom but I couldn't because he loved me very much (as a student) and I couldn't afford to ruin my rep, especially when I'm on Volleyball team.. this is also not a small classroom. Man, are you blind? We have thirty kids in here! What would you think?!

I mouthed to Mirajane and Lisanna, "Please don't tell me..."

The transfer student came in and my jaw opened. He saw me and when we noticed, we both screamed.

I stood up from my chair and screamed and pointed at him. "IT'S THAT BLOND CHICK FROM EARLIER!" The guy screamed. "IT'S THE SALMON IDIOT THIS MORNING!" I shouted, unbelievingly terrified.

Mr. Hotzel sighed. "Kids, quit screaming.."

"WE'RE NOT KIDS!" We both yelled.

"Oh well then... Natsu. Since there is an empty seat next to our favorite loudest student, why won't you sit next to her?"

I then grew shocked. "EHHHH?!"

Natsu then threw out a dirty look. "Why do I have to sit next to that ugly blondie?!"

"Who're you calling ugly blondie?! Watch your blabbering mouth, flamebrain squinty eyes!"

Natsu then held up a fist. "Look at this. This is my way of saying hello to you, idiotic girl."

I slammed my hands onto the table. "Do you want to die?!"

Mr. Hotzel sighed. "You students must refrain from fighting. Natsu, sit. Lucy, I'll let you off, since you're my favorite student. But this will be the last time you'll fight with him. Understood?"

I sighed. "Yes sir..." I slumped into her chair with a dirty look thrown into his face. He glared back at her and kicked her seat. He sat down opened his bag and got ready for class. I then wrote something down and showed it to him. It read, "Don't you ever make eye contact with me until we finish college. I hate you and it's been the first day." I also drew a picture of an angry girl on fire.

Natsu then wrote a letter. It read, "Ha! What a stupid drawing! I don't like it and don't worry! You're too ugly so don't worry, I will never see you again after high school!"

I glared daggers at him, saying he will die after this class. Mirajane and Lisanna noticed, and looked at them, and at each other. They sure do look worried.

I avoided to make eye contact with him.. literally. I literally kept my promise to myself. One day... she told herself. That promise will break..

Not the promise of the eye contact of course.. but there was something else.

After class, I stretched out my arms and squeezed my eyes shut. "Gosh... I'm tired.." I muttered.

Natsu hit me hard in the head and rushed out the door.

"HEY YOU STUPID IDIOT!" I screamed. She sighed. He has been annoying me. He kicked my seat and threw glaring daggers at me. It seemed he enjoys torturing me.

"Um... Lucy.. are you okay?" Lisanna asked, walking up to me. "Yes. That idiot will get it.." I muttered to myself.

Mirajane smiled. "I'll get him for you, alright?"

I shook my head. "This is my business! Mira, I appreciate you helping me but this guy is on my nerves! He won't stop if I won't do anything!"

Mirajane brushed her hair, "Well that's what I was waiting for this entire time! Good luck out there, Lucy!"

I grinned. "Yup! That bully needs to be taught a lesson!"

I stood there and thought of something. "Hey... does that bully have the same classes as us?" I asked.

Mirajane shrugged. "I don't know."

Lisanna frowned. "Usually people stay in the same classes with different teachers coming in. Troubled kids usually have different classes."

I opened my mouth. "I see! That troubled kid has different classes!" I laughed and clapped my hands.

"What if he isn't?" Lisanna asked. Miajane frowned. "Well... that's nice I guess.. but for Lucy..."

I already had my head in my arms, laughing. "THAT IDIOT DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HIS SCHEDULE! AHAHAHA I BET HE'S WONDERING AROUND THE SCHOOL CONFUSED OF WHERE HE'S SUPPOSED TO GO WHEN HE WAS JUST AT THE RIGHT CLASSROOM MINUTES AGO AHAHAHA IM CRYING IN TEARS! SOMEONE HELP ME!"

Mirajane stared. "Lucy... Lisanna, where is the medicine for crazy, uncontrollable people like her?"

Lisanna shrugged. "Lucy. CALM DOWN. PLEASE."

The bell rang and the English teacher came in. She was really strict and hateful towards others so... who knows what she'll do to Natsu.

The teacher came in and took a glace at the classroom. "Mm... looks like everyone is here." she said. She was really good at telling if everyone was here. She could even tell who was absent, even if it were a hundred students in there. She had a very strong and smart brain. "Happy 17th birthday, Heartfilia Lucy."

I smiled and blushed. "Thank you."

She went to her desk and pushed up her glasses. "Where is our Dragneel-san?" she asked. "Isn't he our new student?"

Nobody answered. We all know she never expects an answer from anyone, even if she questions anyone. If anyone broke her rules, she'd smack their butt and make them do 15 squats in front of the classroom and maybe tell embarrassing stories and facts about them with a folder of students' personal profiles in her hands.

"Gosh... you stay in the same classroom for the next subject.. why would you leave..?!" she angrily muttered to herself. She turned her eyes to the chalkboard as she wrote something on it. I whispered to Mirajane and Lisanna, "why did he leave? I mean.. only troubled kids have different classrooms every period."

"Well... he must be a troubled student." Lisanna said, softly. Mirajane twirled her mechanical pencil around. "He must be. I mean, he must have checked his schedule."

I shook my head. "I turned to see what he was doing. I never seen his schedule. If it were in his bag, I never seen him take it out."

"He probably forgot to check the schedule.." Lisanna whispered. "He must be a troubled student."

I shook my head. "If he was, it wouldn't be exciting. If he isn't..." I put my head down and started to laugh (silently). Mirajane stared at the uncontrollable child. "Well.. I think I know why she is laughing.."

The door slid open and there came Natsu Dragneel.

The teacher pushed up her glasses and glared at him. "Natsu Dragneel, sir! Why are you late?!" she demanded. He gulped. He didn't know what to do. "Well? Don't just stand there and come up!"

He trembled as he walked and was smacked in the butt with her hand. "15 squats!" she demanded. "But I'm new!" he complained.

"30 squats!" she added. "You stay in the same class! You don't get out and choose classes as you please!"

"B-But.."

"Want me to add more?!"

"N-No-"

"Hey! I don't need you to talk back! Hurry up and do those squats before I throw out some embarrassing facts about you!"

That's our teacher...

He did squats and I'm just there, laughing silently with my head down. Mirajane gave out a signal to show that she's going to yell out me for "sleeping" (the signal is squeaky noise from writing with a mechanical pencil) so I got my head up with my hand in my mouth so she won't know I'm laughing.

"Alright class. While he's at it, who's going to be staying here for three minutes, I want you all to write the about the topic I am going to write in the chalkboard. As always, date, name, period, and title. While I get to writing the topic on the chalkboard, you are going to write the simple things down. Questions?"

She never expects questions. But when she does, she sort of yells at them, "WHAT?" since she already repeated the instructions.

"Get busy."

When she turned, everyone was silently laughing and pointing at the squatting Natsu. He noticed me pointing and laughing and I wrote "stupid head! that's what you get for getting out of the classroom!"

He noticed and then glared and yelled, "WHAT THE...STUPID BLONDIE!"

The teacher turned around. "Natsu. Shut your mouth. Want me to add another fifteen?"

He then continued to do his squats. When she turned around again, I was in a terrible situation. I barely could hold it my laugh (of course I did) and some laughter came out of my mouth. The teacher turned around and I covered my face so she wouldn't see me laugh.

"Lucy?" the teacher said. That's when I know I was in trouble for laughing.

"Yes?" I asked, shaking. Natsu saw me laughing and gave out a smirk. I know I'm in trouble. "Come up here, my favorite student! I need you to pass the papers to everyone in the row!"

I sighed in relieve. I'm glad all the teachers like me. I made straight A's and very trustworthy.

I got up and took the papers from her and passed it. Natsu was finished with his squats and walked back to his seat, his legs all numb. When I got to his desk, I crumbled his paper and gave it to him. "Here you go, my good man." I said, holding in my laughter.

He stared at me angrily and got up. "Sensei! She crumbled my paper up!"

The teacher glared at him. "Shut your mouth. Lucy won't do a thing to you." She then turned around again and I mouthed "haha to him." I think he'll turn into my bully one day. I gulped just thinking of that (i still passed the papers to people) and shuddered as I got back to my seat.

"Alright. Pass up your topic sheets to the front. Read the instructions on the paper Lucy just gave you and work silently alone. Understood?"

Once again, the class was silent. "Good. Now get busy. If you need any help, ask me, but don't bother because I have a magazine in my hand."

To be specific I really don't like this teacher. She always make us work alone and not in partners. It was really saddening.

I began scanning through the instructions and I shook because that guy was staring at me. He's been staring at me ever since I crumbled his paper. I sweated. I didn't know what to do. He might bully me.

Finally I had the courage to rasp at him: "Quit looking at me, pink haired guy."

"MY HAIR IS NOT PINK! IT'S SALMON YOU IDIOT!" he shouted, jumping up from his seat.

The teacher had it. "Do 10 squats. I'm tired of hearing you scream. Especially on your first day of school."

Natsu knew better than to complain to the teacher so he went up and did his squats. He mouthed, "I will kill you after school."

We all did our work in silence and I didn't talk or pass notes to Mira, Lisanna.. even Natsu after that.

After that it was lunch. I ran up to Mirajane and Lisanna who was taking her lunches out. I smiled. "It's such a long class.." I whined. I lay my head on Lisanna's desk.

"Yeah.. I don't like that teacher." Lisanna said, eating her rice.

"Well. That teacher is who she is!" Mirajane said. "Hey Lucy. That Natsu guy. If you bother him a lot, he'll bully you. He looks like the type."

I shook her head. "Pffth no! He wouldn't bully me! After this, I'll never will see her ever again!"

I start to eat my food until I hear a deep voice, "Come with me, blondie."

I look up and I see Natsu. He had an angry face on. "No! Shut up! Why?! I'm eating you idiot!"

Natsu glared. "Now."

I look to Mira and Lisanna and smiled. "I'll be right back. Come find me in five minutes."

I got up from my chair and walked out the door with him.

"What do you want." I asked, angrily, looking out the roof.

"Why are you doing this to me?"

I looked back He looked furious. "What are you talking about? You started everything first!" I shouted. "If you would accept my apology this morning, we would've been friends!"

"I don't want friends! I don't even need them!" He shouted back.

"Try being nice to me! I'll do the same!" I yelled back. I felt tears well up inside of me. "Today is my birthday and I wanted to be treated special today! I don't want to have any conflicts and problems today!"

Is Natsu a bully? I thought to myself. What do I do?

I shivered in the cold wind.

"Shut up! I don't care!"

He smacked me right across the face. I fell down and felt so much pain. "You're a disgrace to the world!" he shouted. He threw a pencil at me and I winced in pain.

"You'r a disgusting little girl! You can't live anymore you freak! Quit your bullying because I'm the one bullying you from now on! Your parents must hate you so much and so does your siblings! They probably hate you so much you're so ugly!

I had a huge cut on my cheek from the pencil he threw and my legs are scraped in cuts. My hands have several cuts from the rocks underneath my palms. I fell on my face so it was pretty dirty. I got up. What he said was plain dirty and mean. I struggled to get up and walked up to him.

"Hmm? Preparing to fight?" he pushed his knee into my stomach and I winced a lot. He beat me up and I was in a terrible situation.

"No one loves you, blondie. Those white old women will betray you so you'll be left alone!"

I was lying down and I had tears barely coming out. I got up and he pushed me. I gasped for air.

"Those grandmothers should die with you-"

I smacked him right in the cheek as hard as I can. My tears finally streamed down. "Don't badmouth my friends you twerp.."

He was shocked. I wasn't the one for being violent. I've been a peaceful nonviolent person ever since. I never fought or hit someone.

"Never badmouth my friends..." I said. "Beat me up if you want... but... I'll tell you something... you don't know my story... you don't know my past... you don't know my life.. you don't know what's going on in my life.." I stammered. I slightly pushed him away. "Never talk big."

I staggered to the stairs and went down. He just stood there when I looked back. I finally turned and walked down to the restroom to wash my face.

I went back and they were gone. All there's left was my lunch. I took it, along with my bag and walked out the door. I want to eat alone for now.

I found a tree with no one under it so I went. There's like ten people outside so I didn't mind. "Is Natsu his name..?" I muttered to myself. I couldn't bare to remember that scene. He's a bully so I might report to him... I thought. Just ignore him for the rest of my life...

I finished my lunch and began to feel dizzy. "Ah... I'm sleepy.." I muttered. "Might as well sleep until then."

I then fell asleep in pain... with tears in my eyes.

"Hey... wake up... Lucy..."

"LUCY WAKE UPPPP!"

I moaned and rubbed my eyes. It was obnoxious Lisanna and sweet and calming Mirajane.

"Shut up... I'm tired.." I muttered. "Class is starting, idiot!" Lisanna shouted. This gave me a lot of attention. "WHAT?!"

"Five more minutes! Let's hurry!"

We then ran and when we got there, the teacher was there taking attendance. "Oh girls! The bell didn't ring yet. I'm taking attendance! Have a seat!"

And when I finally noticed..

Natsu was there... staring at me with cold.. cold eyes...

Heyy! This is my new story and sorry I made Natsu
