Normal POV
Lucy never liked her school. The teachers were great, the food wasnt so bad, and she criculum was really good. What she diddnt like were the people in it. Just because ur poor and cant afford any of the other things the other students could, diddnt mean that you were any less.
But in Fiore Academy, all that seemed to be the only thing that mattered.
Lucy walked through the halls to her locker. Once she got there she looked around. When she decided it was safe she opened her locker to get her books. She sighed in relief as she closed her locker. No Pop's today so far.
she turned around and ran into the hard chest of the exact person she diddnt want to see. She groaned, so much for Lucky Lucy, huh?
"Well if it isnt our favoret little nerd! Luigi!" the male voice that belonged to her long time tormentor, Natsu Dragneel.
"Wow, Luce. Diddnt even try to do anything with your hair today huh?" A white haired girl chuckled evilly. Lissanna Strauss. How she ended up the way she is, was a mystery to Lucy. Lissannas older sister was Mirajane Strauss. The nicest, kindest, most careing women Lucy had ever met.
Lucy unconsiously put a hand to her hair which was in a messy bun on top of her head. What they diddnt know was that Lissanna was right. This morning, Lucy woke up late, and her family wasnt any help. She was in a hurry grabbed her clothes and left the house, putting her hair in a bun on the way to school.
Natsu laughed, "Yeah Luigi. Anyway, dont want to be late for class do you, nerd? Go run along before i change my mind and lock u in the janitors closet again,"
Lucy shivered. She hadnt been found till after lunch and had to explain to the school bored, and council, why she had missed all her morning classes.
She quickly walked past the teens and speedwalked through the halls to her first hour.
She had English with , or , as he wanted his students to call him. He was one of her favoret teachers, not only because she loved English and writing and reading, But because he was like a brother to her. She had known Fried and his group of friends, all also teachers at the school, ever since her mother had passed. They were like the family she never had, At least till she met Mustache Man, and his 'spirtits' as they called eachother. Mostly because they lifted everyones spirits when they were around.
At least thats what it was like for Lucy.
She had made in just in time, and walked to her desk in the back, next to her best friends Levy McGarden. She and Levy had become friends in the seventh grade after they were the only ones who had read 20 books, and went to the 'celebration' the teachers were having for the students whp had read 20 books that year.
"Hey Lucy-chan!" Levy greeted her. Lucy smiled to her hyper Blue haired friend.
"Hey Levy-chan," She sat down and pulled out her note book.
"Oh my god! Ive got to tell you about what book i saw at The Stowaway! It was the one we've been waiting for forever! You know the one with the girl and boy and it has some guy named Valentine in it! I cant rememeber what it is called and ive read the series along with you! Oh man now this is gonna bug me all day. Damn!" Levy scowled at herself mumbling under her breath.
Lucy giggled at her friend, "Um, Levy-chan? How many cups of coffee have you had today?"
Levy looked at her friend with her eyes glazed over as she thought to herself, "Umm... well i made a cup when i woke up. I drank that then drank two more. I had a study nite and stayed up till five in the morning so i only got and hour so i needed the boost. On the way to school i stopped at Quick Trip and got a large Cappachino, whith carmel and whipped cream and chocolate and this hazlenut-"
"okay class quiet down, i have a special announcement." Fried said. The class silenced and he went on whith the announcement, "As you all know, I alway have a beguinning of school project. And since its already been two months in i thgink its a good time to start. So i have a suprise. We are going to be having another class join us for this project. You will be put in groups of 4, two from this class, and two from the other. When the class gets here we will announce the project topic and groups,"
Levy was practicall jumping in her chair, "Do you think they will have one person from each House?"
Oh God, Lucy hoped not. You see Fiore academy had Had special groups all the students were in that they called Houses. Lucy laughed when she first heard about them, because she thought they had ripped off Harry potter. But Levy explained it to her. There were Lamia Scale, Blue Pegasis, Mermaid heel, Sabertooth, and Fairytail. During the entrance exams you have to take a test which decides which house your put in.
But Lucy thinks its based on your personality. Lamis Scale, had all the brainics and wierd kids, Blue pegasis was filled with playboys, sluts, really pretty or handsome kids. Mermaid heel had only girls. Sabertooth was filled with snobs and people who thought they were better than everyone else. And Fairytail had a bunch of rich people. Sabertooth and Fairytail werent that diffrent To Lucy. Both are filled with mean, snooty privilaged people.
The there was the select few people who the board and council thopught diddnt fit an any of the Houses. They are call ed The Solo's. Lucy is one of these people. She and the other Solo's shared a dorm in the west area of Magnolia. Lucy found it stupid that all the dorms were so far away from the school.
All the other houses had really nice dorms. Decorated acording to the name of the House and the inhabitants of the House. Fairytail was in a nice red brick building with a bar and stage in the Main hall. Sabertooth was ll yellow, gold and silver. Lamia scale was green and had the best library Lucy had ever seen, some of the students feel bad for her and let her in. Mermaid heel was decorated like any girls dream. Blue pegasis looked like a castle. And last but not least was the Solo House. Since there was so little few people in it they shared with the school staff, or the 'Spirits' Mentioned earlyer. They all helped around school, some were teachers, others were custodians. It diddnt matter to Lucy that she shared livingQuarters with the school Staff, they were all nice and she was glad that Mustache Man let her stay there.
Being good friends with the president of the school board had its perks. But theres only so much he can do.
Fried opened the door and said, "Are they ready?"
The person outside yelled, "SHUT UP BRATS!" Lucy cringed along with therest of the class. It was the male PE teacher Gildarts, "Yup, there ready,"
Fried nodded and opened the door to allow the class to come in. When Lucy saw which class it was she groaned. Levy looked over to her blond best friend wit a worried look. She knew about the bullying Lucy got. She was In the Fairytail house so she heard them talk about her alot and she even got teased for being freinds with Lucy. But Levy diddnt care, Lucy was her friend no matter what.
The students who walked in were Erza Scarlet, president on the student council, Gray Fullbuster, Native Exibitionist of Fiore academy, his brother Lyon Vastia also and exibitionist, Hibiki Lates Biggest playboy of Blue pegasis, Sting and his faternal twin brother Rogue, known as th e twin dragon slayers of sabertooth, mostly because if they worked together there is no sport they couldnt win at. Merudy, Wendy, and Romeo, skipped 8th grade. Jellal, Erzas childhood friend, ex-boyfriend, and now sworn enemy (long story) and one of the triplets, Kagura, toughest girl in the whole school, at least second toughest, Minerva's the toughest. She scares even the dragon slayers of the football team, and Yukino, One of lucys fellow Solo's.
"This is 's Economics class. She has genersously let us have them for the time being," Fried said happily smiling while clapping his hands anime style. Lucy and Levy sweat dropped, "Okay so the assignment is for you all so go out to town and write an essay on one of the shops, places, monuments, something that you think makes this town special. You will have to make a powerpoint and present it to the class before christmas. That gives you two months. Now i will announce the groups. Group one, Merudy, Sting, Jet, Sherry. Group two, Juvia, Hibiki, Ultear, Gray. Group three, Erza, Mystogan, Arania, Rogue. Group four Lyon, Wendy. Bacchus, Cana. Group five, Kagura, Levy, Miverva, Jenny. Group six, Yukino, Jellal, lucy, And Natsu. Okay, now that the groups are a decided, please get with them and get started,"
Lucy was laying her head on her desk with her sould flyying out of her mouth anime style. Levy was worried but knew she would be okay so she went to her group. Lucy diddnt notice Yukino sit next to her.
"Uhh... Lucy-san? are you okay?" She asked poking at the dieing girl.
"Yeah, just give me a minuet," Lucy mumbled. She had to work in a group with Natsu. At least it wasnt his whole group.
He sat up and sighed. Today just wasnt her day.
"So Luigi, since we are parners, you can do all the work and i can just put my name on it!" Natsu sadi happily sitting backwards on th chair in front of lucys desk. Lucy had a tic mark on her forehead but before she could say anything Jellal beat her to it.
"No, Natsu. you will do your own fair share of the work. As will Yukino and I." He said. He was the vice president on the council.
Lucy gave him a tiny greatful smile. He smiled back. Lucy had to admit that Jellal was very attractive, as was almost every boy in Fiore academy. Almost.
It was awkwardly silent so Yukino broke it, "S-so what should we do the assinment on?"
"how about the market? they are famous for their fish!" Natsu suggested.
Jellal rolled his eyes, "You have been hanging around that stupid cat of yours too much,"
"Hey dont disrespect Happy! he is a great cat!" Natsu sadi angerily standing to look Jellal in the eye. The blunett was a good 5 inches taller than him though.
"That 'cat' as you call it, is the most lazy, annoying, thing i have ever seen. And why the hell did you dye it blue? The dye isnt good for animals you know" Jellal sadi in a monotone voice looking bored, while Natsu looked pissed.
"Take that back you ass hole!" Natsu yelled getting everyones attention.
Lucy looked around. Jellals lookalike brother just stoof there with an amused look on his face and he sat back in his seat, his hands find ing the back of his blue head, hair held beck by a grey bandana. Erza looked like she was going to puch someone. Fried had left the room.
She decided it was time for her to intervien, "Umm guys, can you please not fight? we'll get in trouble and wont get to start the project,"
"Shut up nerd, this doenst involve you," Natsu said not even looking at her.
Jellal looked mad now, "Dont talk to a girl like that! who gave you the right to talk to a woman like that?"
Natsu looked annoyed now, "She's a stupid nerdy Solo, along with the stupid white haird Solo,"
That pissed Lucy off, "Look here Dragneel," Natsu loked at her like she had gone crazy, maybe she had. Everyone was dumbfounded that she would talk like that to natsu dragneel, Team of the football team, most aggressive guy in school, and her bully, "I dont care if if you call me names and talka baout me like that, but when it comes to my friends you leave them the hell alone,"
Everys jaws dropped. They have never heard someone curse al natsu except for the exceptional few who he hung out with. And too go along with that they had never seen Lucy so mad before. This was why Levy diddnt tell Lucy about poeple messing with her for being her friend. Lucy had a whole diffrent side to her tat not many got to see. It was the true side. She is very protective of her friends, same as Natsu. Thatw as probubly the only thing they had in common.
"What did you just say bitch?" Natsu said in a calmly angered voice. All his attention now on the blond.
Lucy diddnt back down. Whe she was in dark Lucy mode, no one but a seclect few could get her out of it, "I sadi dont fuck with my friends, Flame brain,"
"What give you the right to talk to me like that?" Natsu yelled.
"The moment you disrespected my friend. I thought you were all about nakama and all that? Or is that only with your nakama? Look here everyone! Natsu is a selfish bastard who only cares about hismelf!" Lucy yelled to the class.
Natsu balled his hand in a fist and was about to punch Lucy when Fried came back. Just as he was about to swing Fried yelled, "What the hell is going on in here!"
Everyone scrambled to find thier seat, except Lucy and Natsu who stayed where they were. Natsu was staring at Fried like he wanted to rip his head off. Lucy hadnt rermoved her eyes from the pink haired boy.
"Lucy? Natsu? Whats going on?" Fried asked walkeing towards them.
Lucy answered not looking away from the teen in front of her, "Fire ass here was threatning my friends and i was just taking care of him,"
Fried lost all the color in his face and ran to Lucy, "Lucy? Luce, Lu! Snap out of it! you dont want to fight . You are just caught in the moment,"
Lucy diddnt budge. FRied started to freak out. everyone was confused. Why was freaking out about lucy being pissed? how did Lucy go from the shy quiet nerd to the loud, bad attitude, bad ass?
"Uhh... uhh..." Fried closed his eyes and thought.
Natsu had returned his attention to Lucy and now they were having a staring contest. If looke could kill they would both be 6 feet under still having the staring contest.
"AH-HA!" Fried adi happily and stepped next to Lucy, "Hey Lucy, Loke's looking through your underwear drawer again,"
Lucy seemed to snap out of it, "WHAT! I thought i locked it!"
Lucy had a look of utter horror and annoyence.
"Well seems like we've hot Luce back. But since both you and Mr. Dragneel invocked this fight im afraid im goning to have to give you both detention, for the next week." The green haired man said giveing them both a slip. they groaned, "Or you can pitch in and help Taurus and Virgo with all the school chores,"
Lucy smiled and saluted taking the paper and waking back to her seat. once she was sitting she layed her head on the table. Yup, Lucky Lucy.
soooo im sorry its pretty long. i was creating suspense till we got to the detention part! gihi! but yeah, i have a gtreatr idea for this story. i kind of got my insperation from lemonade mouth. its not going to be like it just maybe the band part you know? but yeah, who do u think should be in the band? im gonna make Lucy, be in it. But im going to make Natsu in the rival band.
im not sure why i made Natsu a bad guy in this, i just thought it might be fun writing him as a mean jerk, u know? its just something i cant see Natsu being so i wanted to check it out... if that made any sense...0_o
But yeah im working on my other stories, i just havent had the time, my crazy sister has to have the computer all the time ugggg.
YUP YUP YUP
R&R please, and im still debating on who Lucy should get with, it can pretty much be any guy in the story, except for Fried (and yes i checked that is how his name is spelt), Laxus, any of the older guys, and Romeo. but yeah other than that im up for shippings!
thank you my good people, love yall
