Hey guys, I accidently said in the previous chapter that it was completed, but it's not, that was only part one of chapter one. Well, instead of posting a chapter every week or so, I'm going to try to post one every two days or so, if I don't have anything to do (Cause I'm such a friendless loner) then ill upload one in my spare time J
The Girl with the Key and the Boy with the Flame (realistic)
THE GIRL (Part 2)
Lucy kept on running, and eventually sweat builded up in her hands surrounding the key so much that she had to switch hands in case she lost her grasp and dropped the key. By now she had reached town and her shoes created loud thumping noises as they made contact with the tiled concrete below her. She didn't know how long she was going to run for, but she didn't want to stop. About half an hour passed of endless running. It was round about now when her legs felt as if they were going to collapse. "I can't do this for much longer." She spoke to herself during shortened breaths. And as if it was the help of fate, it began to rain. And Lucy loved the rain. It cooled down her face and her legs as she continued to sprint through the streets that were now deserted from nearly every direction except for a tall woman walking slowly beside her holding an umbrella. Lucy gave up and was now walking, side to side with the stranger. She looked over to her, and saw her features more clearly. Her umbrella was pink and small but with a big space inside it as if someone could hide their face with it. She was wearing a navy-blue hat that was maybe the size of her head. The hat was placed firmly on top of her dark-blue coloured hair, which was long but at its tips curled itself into giant twirls that sat on her shoulders. She was wearing a dark blue dress and a woollen outlined-cloth protected her shoulders from the tiny rain droplets that made their way past the umbrella. Her feet were covered with brown boots. She was very pretty. "Drip, drip, drop." She spoke aloud. Lucy looked around the place for anyone else that the woman could be speaking to. "Uhm excuse me lady but are you talking to me?" She smiled politely. The woman didn't reply for a while and continued to look straight ahead as she walked. "If you're listening, then it's you I'm talking to." She replied. "What's your name?" Lucy asked. "I'm Lucy, I was actually on my way to-" "They call me the rain woman." She replied cutting Lucy off. "Everywhere I go it rains." Lucy smiled awkwardly. "Sorry but are you meaning to say that you're the reason the rain is here? I always thought that it was something to do with the clouds that caused the rain. My dad always told me-" the woman cut her off again. "If you don't like the term rain woman you can call me Juvia." This time she turned her head slightly towards Lucy before looking back towards the road. "Juvia is my real name. Juvia Lockser." Lucy smiled a bit more realistically now. "Juvia," she began. "That's a nice name."No one spoke after that. But the silence was suddenly broken as Juvia squeaked and jumped behind a nearby lamp-post (the rain had miraculously stopped at this moment). Lucy once again smiled nervously and walked over to her. "What's wrong?" She asked. Juvia pointed towards the bakery. Walking out of the bakery shop, were two boys, one with black hair, and the other with cherry-pink hair. "What? Those guys?" Lucy chuckled. "Do you like one of them or something?" Juvia nodded and once again pointed towards them, but Lucy could tell that this time she meant the dark-haired one. "His name is Gray-Sama." Juvia whispered cupping her hands around her mouth (her umbrella had now rolled away and was making its way towards the boys). "Uh, Juvia?" Lucy pointed to the umbrella which was now rolling even faster away from them. Juvia squeaked again and jumped up to fetch it. But it was too late. The umbrella had hit the dark-haired guy -Gray- in the leg (which had scared him a bit) and he picked it up confused and showed it to his pink-haired friend. Lucy looked across to Juvia, who was now hiding behind a pot plant further across near a cafe. "Juvia!" Lucy whispered to her. "Go ask for it back." Juvia shook her head quickly and crouched down even lower as the boys scanned the streets for the owner of the umbrella. "Juvia!" Lucy was now raising her voice and had caught the attention of the boys, who were now, approaching the girls. "Lucy!" Juvia screamed quietly. "What are you doing?" She sank lower down towards the ground. The boys were now only metres away. Lucy smiled cheekily. "You wouldn't go and ask for it, I'm making him come and give it to you." Gray smiled politely at Lucy who was too busy starring at the pink-haired boy next to him. He returned a stare and a wink. "Is this yours?" Gray asked holding out the umbrella. Lucy snapped out of her daydream and suddenly returned to reality. "Oh, no. That's Juvia's." She pointed to the blunette next to her who was now sitting on the floor casually. Lucy smiled nervously and pulled her up by her arm. Juvia laughed nervously before standing to her feet and placing her hands in front of her stomach flashing a quick smile before reaching out for the umbrella. "Oh." Gray blushed slightly (Lucy winked at Juvia when he did that) "Hey Juvia." Juvia was now blushing and took hold of the umbrella quickly before placing her hands back to where they were earlier. "Oh you know each other already?" Lucy questioned. The two teens nodded and remained quiet. "So what's your name?" The pink-haired boy turned to Lucy and smiled (Finally!) Lucy soon found herself blushing and she smiled as she replied to him. "M-my name?" She chuckled like a complete goof. "I'm Lucy." The boy replied smiling even more now. "Lucy, that's a pretty name." He was now chuckling like a goof as well. "I'm Natsu." The boy replied after laughing (Goofily). "So Juvia." Gray turned to the blunette scratching the back of his head. "Yes Gray-Sama?" her eyes sparkled as he asked her his question. "Would you like to go out for lunch?" (If you remember it's still early morning) Juvia nodded quickly and excitedly. "Oh!" Lucy snapped back to realisation (again) "I have to go!" and without anything else she ran off just as quickly as she arrived leaving Natsu, Gray and Juvia watching her run off. All of them were completely unaware of what she, as a stranger, had just done to influence their lives.
