Fairy Tail - Fanfiction: Chapter 2; "The Project"


|| BELL RINGS / After Class ||

{Lucy and Levy meet up in the hallways ((They already met and became best friends)). They walk to their next class, means they have the same one together}

Natsu: I wonder how Happy's doing back at home . . . It's too bad we aren't allowed to have "pets" in school . . . Stupid rules!

Erza: *Walks up to Natsu* "What's on your mind?"

Natsu: "Oh, hey Erza! Nothing, just thinking about Happy."

Erza: "Yeah, too bad that the rules don't allow pets on school grounds."

Natsu: "I told them Happy isn't a pet! He's a friend!"

Erza: "Did you really!?"

Natsu: "Yeah, so?"

Erza: *Facepalms* "Natsu!"

Natsu: "What!?"

Erza: *Sigh*

Natsu: "Erza?"

Erza: "GET TO YOUR NEXT CLASS!"

Natsu: "Aye!" *hurries to his next class*

Gray: *Walks up to Erza* "You sure showed-"

Erza: "YOU TOO GRAY!"

Gray: "Aye!" *hurries off*

|| To Lucy and Levy ||

Levy: *Walking next to Lucy / Still before the next class / In the hallway* "So, Lu-chan, how do you like being a part of Fairy Tail High?"

Lucy: "I love it! Everyone's so nice and friendly! The classes are easy and fun, and . . ."

Levy: "And what, Lu?"

Lucy: "Just between you and me . . . There's some cute boys here, too!"

Levy: "Oh, so you like a boy?"

Lucy: *Blushing*

Levy: "That's great, Lu-chan! The boys here are, for the most part, cool and decent. So which one do you like?"

Lucy: "I . . . Uh, um . . ."

Levy: "It's okay, Lu-chan. You don't have to tell me."

Lucy: "Really? Phew, thanks, Levy!"

Levy: "No problem! Anyway, here we are at Makarov's classroom. Let's go in!"

Lucy: "Okay!"

{Both girls enter the room}

Gray: "Hey!"

Elfman: "Man!"

Lucy: "Hi!" *sits down beside Levy*

Gray: "So about earlier, Lucy . . . I'm Gray."

Lucy: "Hello, Gray. You already know me!"

Gray: "Yeah, well . . . It's not like Makarov said it aloud to everyone in the school when you came in, so . . ." *laughs*

Lucy: *Chuckles* "I guess you're right!"

Levy: "Quiet you two! Class is about to start!"

Lucy & Gray: "Sorry, Levy!"

{Makarov walks in}

Makarov: "Hello, class!"

Class: "Hello!"

Makarov: "I've decided to postpone the project due date."

Levy: *Sighs relief* "Oh, thank goodness! I wasn't anywhere close to finishing it!"

Lucy: "Uh, project?"

Elfman: "Yeah! A real man knows about the project!"

Lucy: "Okay, one; I'm a girl. And two; again, what project?"

Gray: "Yeah! Don't forget that she wasn't here when Makarov assigned it!"

Elfman: "Man . . ."

Lucy: *Sigh*

Makarov: "Quiet down, class. The new due date will be at the end of this month, instead of at the end of this week."

Levy: "That's great! That means at least 3 more weeks!"

Lucy: "What project?"

Levy: "Oh, sorry Lu! The project is about one of your goals. It has to be a really important goal, too. You have to stand in front of the class on the day it's due, and tell the class what the goal is, why it is very important to you, and you also have to bring in something that relates to the goal. So if you're talking about your goal, if it happens to be getting a boyfriend, you could bring in a picture of him."

Lucy: "Oh, I see!"

Levy: "But the worst part of the project is that you have to complete your goal."

Lucy: "What!? So if you have the example of a boyfriend goal, you have to actually get a boyfriend!?"

Levy: "Y-Yeah." *Blushing*

Lucy: "Why are you blushing, Levy?"

Levy: "Oh, it's nothing . . . It's just that I'm doing my project on just that . . . I'm thinking about changing it, though . . ."

Lucy: "So you can change your project idea at anytime?"

Levy: "Yep! But you don't tell Makarov what you're doing for the project, or he'll take off points! At least don't tell him until the very day the project is due!"

Lucy: "Oh, okay! How many points is the project worth?"

Levy: "About 777 points. I know, a lot, right?"

Lucy: "Yeah! I can't believe it's that much! Is that all?"

Levy: "Yep! And I'm nowhere near done, as I said before! . . . Maybe we could help each other?"

Lucy: "Are we allowed?"

Elfman: "Yeah! Men work together!"

Levy: "Elfman! Why are you eavesdropping!?"

Elfman: "It's manly!"

Levy: *Whispering to Lucy* "No it's not!"

Lucy: *Nods*

Makarov: "You are allowed to work together, Lucy."

Lucy: The teacher too!? I guess I have to be more careful about what I say...
