A/N: So I have decided to keep on going with this story because of my older annoying cousin. Thanks for the inspiration! I probably won't be making updates on time like how I really want to because I get side tracked a lot. And I actually have a lot of free time on my hands after school but I basically waste it on watching anime and sleeping so...

I'll just let you read now... R&R!


After Lucy had got home, she took herself a relaxing warm bath and washed her hair. She got dressed and wrapped her hair in a towel. She slipped on her bunny slippers and walked to her desk in the corner of her room.

"I should probably write to mom before I go to bed tonight," she said out loud to herself.

Lucy sits down at the desk, picks up her pen and starts writing:

Dear Mom,

So, today my best friend, Levy, forced me to try out for the cheerleading team. I'm not really looking forward to it, but Levy thinks I could meet "cute boys" doing it, so I guess I'm willing to try. Oh, and while trying to find a form I meet this cute football player named Natsu and he's pretty nice. We live in the same apartment and ride the same train to school but I've never really seen him around here before. Weird, huh? Well anyways, I think once that I hang out with him and I will become better friends. I didn't have much of an adventure today so I guess that's all I have to tell you.

Lucy yawns as she folds the paper she wrote on. She puts a red sticker on the paper and puts it in a wooden jewelry box. She gets up and shuffles to her bed. As Lucy takes off her bunny slippers she looks at her hand and sees the faint pen marks Natsu put on it.

"Oh yeah that's right," Lucy goes to her desk again and grabs her phone. "I should add Natsu in my contacts before I forget."

Lucy adds him and then texts him.

"Hey Natsu, it's Lucy." She says and then sends it.

Lucy walks to her bed and lies down. She turns off the lamp beside her bed, puts her phone on the charger and puts it beside the lamp.

As Lucy turns on her side she hears her phone ring. She sighs and grabs her phone. She looks at the caller ID and sees that it's Levy. Lucy winces as she sits up when remembered what she forgot to do when she got home earlier.

"H- Hey Levy," Lucy says shyly.

"Don't you hey me missy! You forgot to call me when you got home!" Levy yells. Lucy pulls the phone away from her ear. "I was worried sick about you Lucy! Don't you ever do that again!"

"Alright, I'm sorry Levy," Lucy says. "But could you please stop yelling you're gonna break my eardrums."

"Sorry Lulu," Levy apologizes. "I was just really worried."

"It's okay," Lucy laughs. "Honestly I can take of myself Levy."

"I know but still," Levy mutters. "Anyways I'll talk to you tomorrow Lu."

"Alright Levy," Lucy says.

She removes the phone from her ear and says a quick bye and hangs up. Lucy notices that she had a text message and dragged down the bar to see that it was Natsu.

"Hey, Lucy. How did you get my number?" he asks. Lucy scoffs. Seriously, she thought.

"You gave it to me, remember?" Lucy types back.

"Oh yeah, that's right," Natsu types back.

When she sent her text she puts her phone down for the night and lies back down. That idiot, how could he forget that he gave his phone number to a half stranger, she thinks as she drifts off to sleep.

*the next morning*

Lucy climbs out of bed and walks to the kitchen. She plugs up her toaster as she hears a knock at her door. The blonde raises a questioning eyebrow while she strides to the door. She gazes through the peep hole in door and sees a pinkette with a toothy grin on his face. Lucy opens the door and a rush of cold air blows through her apartment.

"Wow, it's really cold out here," Lucy shivers and wraps her arms around herself. "Natsu, are crazy or something? Where the heck is your jacket?" she asks and observes him.

"Well you see," Natsu starts as he walked into Lucy's apartment. "My new blonde friend she was being the weirdo she is and didn't bring a jacket to school. So, while we were walking home she forced me to give her my jacket." He finishes and falls on the couch.

"I did not force you to give me your jacket!" she yells. "You did that on your own!"

"Oh yeah?" he questions. "Then why did you steal it?"

"I forgot it was yours!" Lucy says.

"Yeah okay," Natsu teases.

"Whatever," Lucy puts her hands up in a surrender matter. "I have to get ready for school."

Lucy closes the door and walks to the kitchen and she puts two strawberry flavored pop tarts in the toaster. She pushes the thing on the side down and walks into her room to change into her school uniform. Lucy puts on her white button down blouse with her yellow tie and khaki skirt. She slips on her black flats and walks into the bathroom to brush her teeth and fix her hair.

"What's taking you so long, Lucy?" she hears Natsu whine from the living room.

"I'm almost done, Natsu," Lucy looks at her clock on her night stand. "We have at least fifteen `till we're supposed to be in school anyway so what's the big rush?"

Lucy walks out her bathroom and into the kitchen and sees that her pop tarts are ready she grabs them. She walks back to her room to grab her sweater and Natsu's jacket as she takes a bite out of her pop tart.

"Don't you still want the cheerleading forms for you and your friend," Natsu asks. "What was her name again?"

"Levy," Lucy says. "And not really. Levy's forcing me to do it but she said that I could meet a couple of cute guys while doing it so I thought why not?"

Lucy walks towards the door and opens it getting ready to leave. Natsu stands up and she tosses him his jacket. They both walk out and Lucy turns around and locks her apartment door with her key.

As they both start walking towards the train station Lucy finishes her first pop tart and hands Natsu her other pop tart and he gladly takes it. When they arrive to the train station Natsu carries out their conversation they had before they left.

"Well," Nastu says cockily. "You've already met a pretty good looking guy already so..."

"Really," Lucy teases. "Who?"

"Me of course," Natsu says as he rubs his index finger under his nose.

Lucy scoffs. "Yeah, okay."

Natsu fake gasps as the train pulls up. They walk onto train and sit down on the same seat, side by side.

"You really think you're good looking?" Lucy asks.

"I don't think, Lucy, I know," He states.

Lucy shakes her head and looks out of the widow of their cart. She thinks about what he said and turns back to observe Natsu's features. He really isn't that bad looking, in fact, he was quite adorable, Lucy thought to herself. Especially when he does that grin all the time...

The train stops at their stop and they both and a few others, which go to their school, get off too. When they get to the school gates two boys were waiting by the gate; one with raven hair and the other with orange spiky hair and glasses that compliment his face.

They both greet Natsu as they walk through the gates.

"Hey Ice Princess," Natsu says. "Hey Loke."

"And who is this young beauty?" Loke asks as he steps in front of Lucy and grabs her hand, as if it were fragile. Lucy pulls her hand out of Loke's grasp as she walks around him and keeps walking as she shakes her head, already knowing that this guy's a player.

"Loke stop flirting with every girl you lye eyes on," Gray sighs. "You just met her about five seconds ago."

"Ah, looks like she's playing hard to get," Loke says as if he never heard Gray. "But I can't believe she rejected me like that. No girl has ever been able to resist my handsomely- charms."

"I'm pretty sure Lucy's not the first to reject you, Loke," Natsu grins and slaps him on the back and walks ahead, not too far behind Lucy.

"Hey, you hot head," Loke yells. "What's that supposed to mean?!"

"So coach do you have any more cheerleading forms?" Lucy begs as Natsu stands beside her. "I just need two."

"You're lucky little lady," the coach says as he grabs two forms off of his desk. "I have exactly two left, and don't turn them in too late. Have them in by lunch time."

"Yes sir," Lucy spins around on her heal and walks toward the door with Natsu trailing behind her.

"We've got to hurry up so we don't get a ticket for being late," Lucy says as she walks faster.

"Eh," She looks at Natsu and sees him strolling with his hands in his pocket. "I'm late all the time, there's no need for me to hurry."

"But too many tickets and you could get detention," Lucy says over her shoulder leaving him behind.

"Oh shoot that's right," Natsu starts to run as he grabs Lucy's wrist as he passes her. "Come on, Luce. No time to be late."

When Natsu and Lucy arrive to homeroom they were nothing but one minute late. As Lucy passes by Levy's desk she drops the cheerleading form on her desk and whispers, "We have to have them in by lunch time."

"Kay," Levy says.

As Lucy begins to fill her form, the teacher calls roll. In mere minutes Lucy's done filling out her form and homeroom is over.

Lucy goes to her locker to get her 1st period class, Science. She grabs her notebook and closes her locker and she sees Levy walking over towards her.

"Did you finish filling out your form, Lulu?" she questions.

"Yep," Lucy responds, starting to walk in the direction of her next class. "Have you finished yours?"

"Of course," Levy holds up the paper as proof.

"Are we still going to library after school today?"

"No, not today. Me and my lab partner have to work on something," Levy sighs in disappointment. "How about tomorrow instead?"

"Okay," Lucy says. "Who's your partner by the way?"

"Gajeel Redfox," Levy blushes and looks away. Lucy raises a questioning eyebrow.

"Oh my gosh, does my best friend have a crush on someone," Lucy teases.

"No!" Levy's face is about the color of a tomato by now.

"Oh yeah," Lucy says, stopping by her class door. "Your face says it all."

Levy huffs and walks away saying over her shoulder, "Later Lu."

Lucy laughs then she stops in her tracks to see that the desk have been rearranged into groups of fours. Lucy walks towards the teacher's desk.

"Um," Lucy says as she approaches. "Where do I sit?" The teacher barely looks up from her computer at her as she mumbles an answer.

"I don't care, sit somewhere," she answers.

Lucy spins around on her heels as she looks at her options. She chose to sit by a raven haired kid that was sitting by himself that was glued to his phone. She sat down by him and he didn't even notice her. Lucy cleared her throat and it startled him.

"Oh," he said and Lucy recognized him immediately. It was that guy that Natsu called Ice Princess this morning. "Hey, you're that girl that Natsu walked in with this morning. Lucy right?"

"Yeah," Lucy says. "I didn't mean to scare you that much."

"Nah, it's cool," he said. "My names Gray by the way if you didn't know that."

"That's cool cause I was starting to think your name was actually Ice Princess for a minute," Lucy

jokes. Gray chuckles.

"It's just this thing that Natsu and I do," he says, and as if on que Natsu walks into the classroom and sit down by Lucy.

"Hey, Luce," he says. He leans around Lucy to see Gray and narrows his eyes. "Why you sitting over here with this loser?"

Lucy was opens her mouth to explain why but Gray interrupts her.

"Loser," Gray glares back at Natsu. "Who you calling a loser, idiot?!"

"Oi, who you calling an idiot, you stupid idiot?!"

"Stupid and idiot is basically the same thing, duh!"

"Shut up you, Popsicle!" Natsu stands up pushing his chair back violently.

"No you shut up!" Gray does the exact same.

"You wanna fight?!

"Let's go then!"

Lucy puts her face in her hands. How can they start a fight over a little thing like that? Lucy sighs. This is going to be a looong day.
