Chapter 3: School
Erik let out a quiet groan as he entered his first period class and saw Natsu and that other boy, Gray, sitting in the middle. Natsu looked over and caught his eye, and Erik tried to glare back but it was not effective, for Natsu stood up and walked over.
"Hey, your that one guy! Listen I am so sorry about your I-pod! That was so un-cool of me!" he cried out as he bowed his head, surprising Erik.
"Yeah, I'm sorry as well man, It was all my fault, I pushed this flamebrain into you," Said Gray with a bow as well, but standing farther away. 'This guy has one hell of a punch, that hurt! Don't want to get on his bad side again, he looked pissed!'
"Whatever," Said Erik as he sat down. 'I hope I scared him so bad he leaves me alone'.
"So, my name is Gray Fullbuster, you must be new, what's your name?" Asked Gray as he extended his hand for a handshake. Erik looked at his hand and back up at his face before sighing. 'Or not'.
"Cobra," He replied. Gray lowed his hand after he realized he wasn't going to get a handshake. 'Hm, he actually gave me his name? Well Nickname, but still. He seems really… different form the usual new kids. He doesn't look nervous, nor is he trying to fit in. He seems to like being alone.'
Erik turned away and walked to the back left corner, right in front of a window. As he put his bag on the floor the teacher walked in and class began.

The bell rang signaling the end of fourth period, Erik stood up and dashed out of the door before Natsu could stop him with the questions he knew he wanted to ask him. Looking at his schedule he saw it was gym and he began his trek to the gym. When he entered he looked around and saw he was the third person to make it. The other two, which were girls, were standing over by the bleachers talking. They looked over at him before turning back towards each other. He didn't even need to read their minds to know they were talking about him.
He walked to over to the bleachers sitting far away from them as he could and focused on his schedule in his hands. If he focused on something, he could drone out the voices but it was still hard for him to do so. He looked up when he heard more people enter the gym and saw that blond girl from earlier walk in with two other girls. One with blue hair, and the other was the long haired girl from earlier, whom tried to distance Gray and Natsu form him. They glanced over and he heard their thoughts.
'Oh? That's the guy Natsu and Gray ran into! The new guy! What did they say his name was? Connor? Contro? Co…Co-something?' Thought the red head.
'Oh boy, this class ought to be interesting. I can see it now, Natsu, Gray and him getting into fights. I hope Erza or Laxus will keep them from bothering him. It usually works out well with Erza around, Heehee,' Thought the blue haired one as an image flown through her head of the red head standing over Natsu and Gray with her foot on their butts. he let out a quiet chuckle.
'Hm seems like he isn't angry anymore, instead he seems…amused? Oh Natsu and Gray are here, great. Can't wait to see how this turns out' Thought the blond, and sure enough Natsu and Gray came strolling through the door, with Lisanna and a girl with blue hair behind them.

"Hey Natsu," Said Lucy with a smile.
"Hey Lucy! So guess what? We just got invited to Cana's party! She said everyone in school is invited! Isn't that great?" He said smiling.
'Great… another party… I don't know, after what happened last time…' Thought Lucy as she remembered last party. Since Cana is known for being 'married' to booze, her party are always loaded with booze. Even though they are only Juniors in high school, doesn't mean anything around here. So last time, one of the girls in AP classes blabbed to Natsu about Lucy's feelings about him.
It was all good cause the result got Natsu to make out with her, but turns out he was a bit too drunk! So the next day after Lucy approached him about it he apologized and told her he thought she was Lisanna. She didn't talk to him for a whole week, and cried for two weeks. 'Whatever, it's not I can even love anyone, especially with how weird I really am…'
Of course, Lisanna and him still haven't confessed their feelings to each other, even though everyone else knows, even the teachers. Speaking of teachers, their teacher interrupted her memories to begin class.
"Okay class, so today, we will have a new student with us! Sir, if you would please come up to the front and introduce yourself?" Said the teacher. I looked over and saw sure enough, the new guy was sitting by himself. He was now sitting straight and I could tell he was not happy with having to introduce himself. He got up and walked towards the front, and seemed to stand at attention, with his hands behind his back. "Now then young man, what's your name and where have you moved here from?"
"You can call me Cobra, and I come from a small town called Nirvana," He said. We all sat there for a second and I saw him give an amused smirk at us before going back to his corner and sitting down. He certainly found something amusing to him. I let out a sigh as the teacher then made us go and change into uniform. I walked into the locker room and walked over to where Lisanna and Juvia were.
"So that was weird, He didn't even give us his real name! I wonder why? What if its embarrassing to him? Or maybe he juts was trying to be funny? Or what if-" Started Lisanna but was cut off by Erza putting her hand over her mouth.
"Breathe before you speak Lisanna! You have been hanging around Natsu for too long!" Said Erza with a laugh as the rest all laughed as well.
"Whoa Levy! Your boobs got bigger! What is your secret?" Cried a girl with short light purple hair, Laki.
"What? Laki! Shut up! What if the guys hear us! Natsu could tell everyone that!" said Levy putting on her gym shirt quickly. She shrugged but thankfully dropped it. Afterwards we were all changed and we walked out to see the boys were waiting, well all except Erik. He walked out last and I could see he was embarrassed and he had a slight blush on his face. He wiped it away and joined us, but first he looked in my direction and once again I saw confusion flicker in his aura.
'What about me confusing him!? I can see I every time he looks at me!' Lucy shook away her thoughts as the teacher decided to make everyone run laps.

After they were done running laps the boys walked into the locker room, most of them out of breath, mainly Natsu and Gray, whom decided to race. Erik entered and after grabbing his cloth, ducked into one of the shower stalls to change. He was definitely in a better mood, of course would have been better if he had his music. Erik loved to run, at all his previous schools, he was on the track team with the fastest time. At least before his last home, where he was homeschooled.
'I wonder why he's changing in the stalls? Is he homophobic?'
'Maybe he's hiding something, like drugs?'
Erik let out a snort as he finished changing and exited the locker rooms. As he was walking he bumped into someone who was running past the entrance, knocking them down. He looked down and saw the blond girl, Lucy, sitting on the ground rubbing her lower back.
"Owie… Oh! Im so sorry!" She said "I was totally not paying attention!"
"It's okay, Im sorry, I should have seen you coming," He replied as he extended his hand to help her up.
'Hahaha! What a bimbo! She really should watch-'
Silence.
Erik's eyes widened as he looked and saw that her hand was still touching his, even though she was standing, and he couldn't hear anyone's thoughts, except hers. He looked up at her and saw her looking at him with her head tilted.
'Hm? He's surprised? and confused? and I see a little bit of relief… Why?'
Erik quickly ripped his hand away and instantly the voices came back. He mumbled a sorry and walked away towards his locker. When he reached it he opened it up and just looked inside it. 'Why? As soon as I touched her, the thoughts disappeared! I didn't think that was possible!' He thought to himself. He took a deep breath and put his books in his locker before shutting it and heading towards the lunch room. 'Could it be… she also has a power? I'll have to watch her thoughts more closely' he thought.

The school day ended and Lucy let out a sigh. All day it seemed Erik avoided her, but she could still pick him up his aura of confusion and slight anger, probably annoyed. She looked around and didn't see her aunt, whom usually picks her up. She pulled out her phone and face palmed when she saw it was on silence with three missed calls and 5 texts. She looked at the texts and found out her aunt was working late so she had to take the bus. She let out a groan as she ran towards the bus hoping to catch it before it left. She made it just as it was about to leave and saw the buss seats were all full, except for two. One next to Erik, the other next to a guy with black hair named Bixlow.
'Uhhhh oh god! I am not sitting with Bixlow! Not after what he did last time!' She thought as she remembered how creepy he was, with sitting to close and basically drooling over her. She looked at Erik and saw he had a slight look of disgust on his face as he looked at Bixlow. She shrugged it off and walked over to him.
"Um… Can I sit here?" She asked giving a small nervous smile. Erik snapped his head up and looked at her for a minute before nodding, and moving his book bag on the floor, making room for her. "Thank you Cobra," She said. He nodded before looking out the window. He discreetly moved his arm to touch hers slightly and he almost sighed in relief at the quietness that followed. He easily tuned out her thoughts and stared at the passing buildings.
Edit done!
