Authors note: Hey guys! Yosei Cosplay here! So, this is my first Fan Fiction story I've written. I just wanted to let everyone know that this story is on the darker side. So there is a trigger warning of abuse, self-harm, and bullying. So if anyone isn't able to handle these things, I would advise not to go any further.
Now, this story is somewhat based off of things that have happened when I was in high school. A lot of things are exaggerated but there are a few truths to this story for me. If anyone was interested in learning my story, feel free to message me. I also made a lot of the characters into older people, so the ages may be off compared to the anime. There is a lot of the under lying personality from the anime in all the characters, but also a lot of the stuff they do or say is OOC. Just keep that in mind.
I'll be posting a chapter every day or two. I'm pretty good at keeping up with my projects, but in case I'm not able to, I'll let everyone know when the next chapter will be available.

Chapter one:
Beep Beep Beep!
Smack.
Crash!
"Dammit," Lucy Heartfilia exclaims groggily. She reaches down to find the alarm clock she knocked over onto the floor. Grabbing it, she squints at the time with tired eyes. "7am already?" she groans, sitting up in her bed. She looks around to find her phone charging on the bedside table. Picking it up, Lucy saw her friend Levy McGarden had texted her saying she will be picking her up at 7:45am for school.
Lucy stands up and stretches, heading to the shower. She strips off her pajamas and hops into the shower. After washing her hair and the rest of her body, she steps out to dry herself off. Taking the same towel she used on her body, she towel dried her hair before blow-drying it. Doing so, Lucy glances at her body in her full length mirror. She runs her fingers up her thighs, stomach, arms, and shoulders. All scared from the damage she's done to herself and the abuse she's taken from her father.
Two years ago, her mother got sick. Very sick. They thought she was getting better, though. The doctor told them that she would be fine. Oh, was the doctor wrong. After her mother passed, Lucy's father fell into a depression. Trying to numb his pain, he turned to drinking. Unfortunately, her father already had an anger problem. But now it's been enhanced by the alcohol. Now a days, he either ignores Lucy or, even worse, takes his anger and frustration out of the one thing that reminds him of Layla.
Shaking her head, Lucy quickly exits the bathroom. She looks through her closet to find a pair of blacked ripped skinny jeans and a shirt with her favorite band logo, Ice Nine Kills. She also slips on a long sleeve purple sweater to hide her arms. Sitting at her vanity, she applies a thick layer of foundation to hide the dark bruise on her cheek from when her dad found out she was late getting home from class last night. A thing line of eyeliner was also applied and she threw her hair up into pigtails.
Looking at the clock, it read 7:40. Levy would be here in 5 minutes. Lucy slips on her purple converse, grabs her book bag and heads downstairs. She looks around the corner after reaching the bottom step and sees her dad passed out on the couch with a beer in hand. Sighing in relief, she quietly sneaks out the door and runs to the car Levy arrived in.
"Hey Lu!" exclaims her blue-haired friend. Levy had on a similar outfit Lucy did, except she wore green and black.
"Hey Levy. Loving the outfit!" Lucy smiles.
"Same goes for you," Levy winks. "So, are you ready for school?"
Lucy just stares at her. "Am I ever ready?" She scowls.
"Good point," Levy sighs.
Lucy and Levy are two of the least popular kids in the school. They've had to deal with bullying for the last year and a half. Now, at the ages of 17, they only have one more year of high school till they graduate and then they can leave this place for good.
In 10 minutes, they arrive at school. They two best friends look at each other and take a deep breath.
"Ready Lu?" Levy asks, holding out her hand.
"As ready as I'll ever be…" sighs Lucy, taking her friends hand and giving it a squeeze.
They step out of the car and walk towards the front doors of the school. They can already hear the nasty comments and the feel of all the scowls directed at the two of them. Keep their heads down, the two best friends head to their shared locker. Lucy opens the locker to retrieve their books and hands levy hers as she takes her own. Suddenly a hand knocks her books out of her hands as she hears laughing.
"Hey blondie, did ya miss me?"
Lucy stiffens, knowing that voice. She slowly turns around to come face to face with her tormenter all throughout high school.
"S-sting."
