Chapter 2. Lucy Hearfilia

News of Natsu's confession in the cafeteria spread faster than wildfire. It was to be expected though, Fairy Tail High was the number one school to get gossip from. (according to other high school students). Lucy slumped in her seat, and sighed dramatically. Some people looked at her strangely, which the blonde failed to notice.

"I can't believe that you're this upset over the fact that the Natsu Dragneel has a crush on you." Levy turned to face her friend. "I would kill for that opportunity with Ga--With anyone!" Levy blushed a little, however once again Lucy failed to notice. Lucy turned her attention to the window, and watched two birds fly by.

"It's weird, we don't even know each other." Lucy responded. "And he's probably messing around. You know how many girls he's had crushes on? He just wants to tick me off of his list of girls he's dated. For all we know, you could be next!" Levy didn't say anything after that. From most people's perspective, Natsu was just a playboy, looking for a girl who could keep him entertained for as long as possible before he got bored. It was almost like a toy - playing with it until you got bored and found another one. This got Lucy wondering about how many toys Natsu played with as a child.

"That might be true." Levy placed her finger on her chin, continuing the conversation. "But that doesn't make NaLu any less cuter."

"What the heck is NaLu?" Lucy raised a questioning eyebrow, which caused Levy to show off her teeth with a wide grin.

"You and Natsu's ship name!" The blonde haired girl rolled her eyes playfully at her friend, and turned her attention to the front as Miss Aries, their teacher walked in.

"Good afternoon class! Please get out the homework I set you last week so we can do peer assessment."

Meanwhile...

Natsu slammed his head on the desk, and a groan escaped his lips. His desk partner Jellal was still wearing his signature amused smirk, although it wasn't directed at Natsu.

Jellal's attention was focused on the pretty scarlet haired girl at the back, who was scribbling notes down as Sir Guildarts continued to teach. Jellal personally didn't care for the science behind sports, so he never paid attention.

The girl finally caught Jellal staring. She sent him a harsh glare, before looking back at Sir Guildarts and taking more notes. Jellal chuckled softly, and shook his head.

"What an interesting girl." He found himself thinking.

Jellal was forced back into reality when a loud thump was heard. It was Natsu yet again. Now, Jellal's attention was on Natsu.

"Dude, what's your problem?" Jellal asked casually.

"What do you think is my problem?" Natsu shot the blue haired male a cold glare.

"What's with all the glaring today?" He muttered to himself.

"Why would you guys push me to the edge like that?" Natsu questioned. "What's she going to think? Damn it, I hate my life!" Natsu slammed his head against the desk again.

"Mr Dragneel, is there a problem that I need to be made aware of?" It was evident Sir Guildarts was annoyed due to the tone he had used, however it seemed Natsu couldn't care less. The rest of the class were looking over in the boys' direction.

(Including the scarlet haired girl, which pleased Jellal).

"No." Natsu said shortly.

"Well obviously, there is a problem. Go to the Master's office."

Back with Lucy...

"Just admit it, Natsu's one hell of a looker." Now halfway through the lesson, a couple of girls who had heard the news joined in on the conversation. Miss Aries didn't mind the chatter in the class, as long as the work was completed in the end. The girl who had just spoken now was Mirajane, or Mira for short.

"Well I-"

"The only one for Juvia is Gray-Sama!" The other girl who had decided to join the conversation went by the name Juvia, who had an obvious crush on Gray.

"We weren't asking you, Juvia." Mira smiled politely. Juvia giggled awkwardly.

"Well..." Lucy began again, only to be interrupted by the loudspeaker.

"Could Miss Lucy Hearfilia report to the Master's office immediately? I repeat, Miss Lucy Hearfilia."

Saying that the blonde was surprised would be 100% accurate. Why did the Master want to see her? What had she done?

These questions and many more swam around Lucy's mind as she left her class and walked through the school halls towards the Master's office.

What are your opinions on the second chapter? Why do you think Lucy was sent to the Master's office?

... Keep in mind Natsu was sent there too... ;)

By the way, the students call the headmaster/headteacher master because it's shorter :P
