Note: I'm sorry about not updating on this story because of my personal problems. But, heres the next chapter! I don't own Fairy Tail or anything of it.
You spend your whole life stuck in a labyrinth, thinking about how you'll escape it one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.
- John Green, Looking for Alsaka
I wake up to realize it was 8 am, and I had 10 hours before I had to get ready for the date. I get off from my bed, and go into the bathroom to brush my hair and teeth. I washed my face, and got some clothes to wear.
I would wear the clothes I had for the date when it was about time for it. I put on a black band tee and black skinny jeans. I got up, and called Lucy to see if she wanted to hang out for a while before my date.
Lucy agreed, and I got my black vans on, and got my keys. I opened the door, and locked it before going to my car. I got in, and drove to her apartment.
I found out she was a runaway rich daughter of the famous Heartfilia's, but I wasn't one to judge. I never cared about status, I cared about how people acted towards others.
I never acted rude, or anything to them, but they always had to pierce my heart with hateful words. It would always bring me down which lead me to my depression.
When I got to Lucy's apartment, I parked the car, and got out. I locked the doors, and got my keys. I walked up to her apartment door number, and rang the bell. she opened the door, and I went in.
Her living room consists of a couch, simple table, a flat screen t.v., some chairs, and a bookshelf. I look at the walls to see her family photos again, and her blue walls.
"So, whatcha doing here?" Lucy says while eating a cookie.
"Oh, you know, I had nothing better to do so, I decided to come here before my date."
"Ohhh, I forgot today was the date," Lucy says while finishing her cookie.
"Yeah, and I'm really really nervous about it. I mean who would ask me out especially a popular guy at it."
"Lots of guys would, Juvia." Lucy says while smiling.
"Sure," I say sarcasticly.
"Its true!" Lucy says while coming close to me.
"Not really, I mean I'm not that pretty, or anything. They think I'm very depressing, and they don't like that. So, I mean pretty much nobody would."
"Have more self-confidence in yourself Juvia!"
Self-confidence, that word. I hated it. I don't have any because other people ruined it for me. Though, I would probably end up like them if I wasn't like this. I hate it, I hate acting strong when I really just want someone to hold me.
"So, how is Natsu?" I say while smirking a little.
"How should I know?!" Lucy squeaks out.
"Well, for one, you stalk his facebook, and you like him." I say while wiggling my eyebrows at her.
"No, I don't!" Lucy shrieks out.
"Don't lie, Lucy. You talk about him all the time to me, and I've seen you visiting his facebook page."
"Fine, fine, I admit I do like him, but only a little," she says while blushing.
"Sureeeeeee." I say while stretching out the e on purpose.
I sat on her couch, and she sat next to me. I rolled around.
"I want cookies!" I say quite childishly.
"Okay, okay." Lucy says while getting up to get some.
I quickly turn to her laptop, and click on her messages with Natsu. It looked something like this:
Natsu Dragoneel: Hey :).
Lucy Heartfilia: Hi :D.
Natsu Dragoneel: Whatcha doing?
Lucy Heartfilia: You know, the usual, reading, writing, and listening to music.
Natsu Dragoneel: So, Lucy, would you like to hang out with me on Monday after school?
Lucy Heartfilia: YES! :).
Natsu Dragoneel: I"M ALL FIRED UP!
Lucy Heartfilia: Looking forward to see yo there.
Natsu Dragoneel: Me too, 3. I gtg. bye.
I smirk while hearing her coming back so, I turn away from her laptop, and got back to where I sat before. I could surely use this to tease her. Once she came back with those amazing cookies, I started chomping them down.
"Sooooooo Lucy, you got anything you want to tell me?" I say while swallowing some cookies.
"Not really," she says.
"Oh really? Whats the date with Natsu on Monday?" I say while smirking at her.
"What?! How do you know?" She says while blushing.
"I've seen your Facebook messages, and surely you can't lie now."
"WHAT? AND ITS NOT A DATE!"
"Stop lying, he even put a heart with his message. So, ofcourse it is." I smile.
"Okay, okay. I don't think he thinks its a date, but I do."
"Lucy, your pretty and have a body that any girl would kill for. Of course he'll like you."
I look at the time to see we've been talking for like 3 hours.
"I have to go." I say while getting up.
"You'll have to give me details on your date!" she yells after me.
"And you will too," I say back to her.
I walk out and got into my car. I drove back to where I live, and got into my room. I pace around the room, and finally when I decided to stop. I watched the newest episode of Fairy Tail.
I scrolled around the internet, and found a lot of boring, amusing, and weird stuff. After I did that, I looked at the to see it was 4.
I went into the bathroom to take a shower, and put my clothes to the side. When I finished and dried myself with a towel, I put on my clothes I decided to wear. It consists of a band tee that says We are the Fallen Angels, and black skinny jeans.
I decided to put on a black bracelet, and a red cross choker. I put on black eyeliner, and mascara. I put on black leather boots. I decided that it'll do, and saw it was 5:30. I got my keys to the house, and walked to the place where we were suppose to meet.
I saw the pretty rainbow sakuras, and decided to lean on one. I checked my phone to see it was 6. I hear footsteps coming towards me, and I look up to see Gray.
He was wearing a black t-shirt, and black jeans. He was also wearing black vans which I love to wear. I stare up at awe at his looks.
"Hi, Juvia." he says while looking down at me.
"H-Hi Gray." I say while stammering a bit.
"Lets go for a walk," He says while pulling me with him.
"Okay," I say while looking at our joined hands.
We walk around the park in comfortable silence. I look up at his face, and wonder what hes thinking. He was handsome, no doubt in that. I wonder why he asked someone like me out.
"Juvia," he turns around to face me.
"What?" I say while turning up to look at him.
"You know, I'm not like this really cool guy everyone thinks I am." he says while smiling that rare smile he doesn't show often.
My breathe got caught in my throat at his smile.
"And why would you tell me?" I say quietly.
"I don't know, I think thats what you think about me too."
I did think he was one of the cool kids who could care less about someone. I also thought he was one who dates all the popular/pretty girls.
"I do, and why would you ask me on this date?" I say while staring at him.
"Well, I noticed you like the same things as me. For example, you like anime and I do too. You also like rock music in which I do too."
"I didn't know that. I always thought you were one of those who likes sports, and likes rap music."
"Yeah, thats the impression I give off, but thats not really who I am."
"So, what band do you like?"
"I love Beartooth, Green Day, and mostly screamo I guess. I really like the ones which express really deep feelings."
"I love Green Day too!" I say excitedly.
He stares at me, and I stare back. I wonder why he isn't talking anymore.
"Juvia, you're beautiful."
