Hi everyone and thank you to the four of you who have f following me and saying that you love it! I'm going to try to make a new chapter every three to two days, but the day I'm starting this chapter is a snow day so it may come a little late. Sorry! But without further ado, I present chapter 2 to Misfit.
Chapter 2: A Certain Pinkette
xXx
Lucy's POV
"Are you new here?"
I looked back up from the ground and saw a certain pinkette still standing right next to me with holding my hand, looking at me with his toothy grin. I blush wildly and turn my head away, I'm still an outsider, just because we both are one of 'Them' doesn't mean that I'm not.
Without her noticing his toothy grin fades and he looks at the ground, his gaze is then shifted to their hands. "Sorry!" He said quickly pulling away and rubbed the back of his neck.
They walked in silence for a while, too embarrassed to look at each other, and Lucy still doubting that she could be his friend. They got to the Cafeteria and Lucy tried to blend in with the background and started to walk towards the table farthest away from anyone, especially Natsu. "Why is my heart racing like this? It never does that, it can't be that I like him, I only just met him and I'm still an outsider." Lucy thought as she was walking to her table.
But when she wasn't looking a pinkette slipped beside and take her hand again. "Where are you going?" Natsu asked with a tinge of sadness in his voice.
"I was just going over there," I mumbled back to him.
"No way, you helped me get out of there so I'm treating you," Natsu started, again, pulling me towards a table with 4 people sitting there. I first of the two boys sitting there had blue hair and a tattoo under his left eye. The other one had piercing all along his forward with long black hair. The first of the two girls had short light blue hair with a yellowish orange band in them. The other ones hair was also blue but darker like the ocean, it came down in long beachy waves to her shoulder blades.
"Salamander," The boy with long black hair said. "Who's the chick?"
"Shut it Lug Nuts!" Natsu shouted, after a second of getting calmer he said. "This is Lucy. And that is Gajeel, Jellal, Juvia, and Levy."
I waved hi to all of them with my free hand. Natsu sat me to the left of Levy and the right of him. As Gajeel and Jellal was making fun of Natsu making him blush, I studied Levy. She was really engrossed in a Fairy Tale. After I gathered up some courage I spoke. "Hi, I'm Lucy." I said slightly quieter than a normal talk.
She looked up and smiled seeing me. "Hi, I'm Levy McGarden." She replied in a cheery tone.
I smiled from her excitement. "Do you like to read?"
Right before Levy was going to answer Gajeel spoke up. "Does she like to read, that's all she ever does. Well not all the time." And gave me a wink.
Levy's face immediately heated up. "No we have never done anything!" I don't know why but I believed her and guessed that Gajeel was just teasing.
I started to laugh. Glad that they showed so much friendliness to me even though we just met. When I did laugh Natsu looked at me and gave me his toothy grin. Glad from me interacting with everyone. I was just about to ask him something when another person joined the table. She had white hair cut rather small.
"Hey guys!" She chirped.
"Hey Lisanna," Natsu said with a toothy grin once again.
"Who's this?" Lisanna said nodding towards where I was sitting.
"This is Lucy!" Natsu said proudly like he was showing off something spectacular.
Lisanna defiantly noticed how he was treating me and I caught the glimpse of jealousy that was in her eyes. "Oh…" She responded but I could hear the venom in her voice.
I turned slightly towards Natsu and barely above a whisper said. "Hey Natsu, I got to go." And with that I got up and left the Cafeteria before Natsu could do anything about it.
xXx
For the past few hours I have stared at the same line over and over again in the new book I was reading. I tried to get my mind off of things but I couldn't stop thinking about everyone I met a lunch… Especially Natsu. Uhhh, why can't I get him out of my head!? I got up and was about to look at some of the books on my desk when there came a knock on the door.
"Luce? Are you in in there?"
Ohh no! It's Natsu! What do I do, I kind of just left him in the Cafeteria. Keeping calm I walk to the front door to my room and opened it. And standing there was a certain pinkette with a toothy grin.
"Hiya Luce!" He said voice full of excitement. "I noticed that you didn't get a chance to eat when you left, so I brought you some food." And sure enough in his hands were what I guess is pasta.
I walked to the side of the door with a slight smile on my face gesturing him in. He walked over to the desk and set the tray down while I closed the door and was standing right beside him.
Once the door closed he turned around and looked at me with a concerned face. "Why did you just leave?" He said worry in his voice. I looked to the floor guilt on my face. I was hoping he wouldn't bring it up.
He grabbed my chin with his thumb and index finger and pulled my head up to look at him. And he was close. TOO close. "Don't lie to me Luce." he said staring into my eyes with his onyx ones.
"I just didn't feel like eating," I lied.
He gave a slight smile fake smile and said "I can tell when you are lying. Now really. Why did you leave? Was it something that I did?"
I couldn't tell him that it was because of Lisanna. I just can't tell him. I shake my head and look at the floor again while he's still holding my chin. "I was looking around the school to get remember where everything is." I lied once again.
"You should stop changing your alibi, you know." He said at me with a slight grin, making me slightly smile.
So what did I do? I did what almost would anyone would do. I lied but included part of the truth. "I-I'm just not used to a lot of people, it got me kinda freaked out." I partly lied.
"Ohh…" He then turned around, satisfied with the answer, and picked up two plates with pasta on both. He handed one to me with a fork.
"Wha-what is this?" I questioned.
"WHAT!?" He said with a shocked face.
"Umm, I've never had really anything more than oatmeal," I said embarrassed a little bit. "That's all my parents had ever given me."
"Well, don't worry," He said with his toothy grin. "Now that you're here I'll get ya anything you want." At this I blushed furiously, apparently he found it amusing because he rolled back laughing making me giggly.

After we were done eating and talking, I learned who the scarlet haired woman and the raven haired was. Once we got done it turned out to be around 9:15 p.m. Natsu said we had to be up early for training so we both decided to go to bed.
As he passed through the door that connected our two rooms together without looking he said. "Goodnight Luce, I'll get you in the morning." Good thing he didn't turn around to see my cheeks that we as ink as his hair.
Once he left and locked the door I jumped on the bed and squealed quietly enough for him not to hear me. I feel like today I was finally coming out of my shell, forgetting my fears. I wonder what tomorrow will bring? If I was going to spend it with Natsu,it was definitely going to be an adventure.
xXx
This took me longer than expected! I scraped half of the story early and didn't know what to write. Hopefully this turned out better. I was so happy when all of you said you loved it! It made my day. Remember to favorite, follow, and review, it would mean so much!
