Chapter 4

Lucy's POV

When Natsu left after our studying, I didn't know whether I wanted to scream or cry in embarrassment. What were we even doing? It was all going fine and normal. Well, if you call a high school boy screaming over math equations normal. But then all a sudden we had that "moment." But I don't even know what that "moment" was. What would have happened of his phone didn't ring? Would we have actually kissed? Somehow the thought of kissing him didn't make me feel weird, but happy almost. Me? Kissing Natsu? That's insane. I thought he was going to ask someone to prom. Why would he be trying to kiss me? It was probably just in the moment.

But of course, that moment caused me to have a restless night. I just kept thinking over and over about that one moment right before our lips touched. Then his phone rang, which I don't know if that was a good or bad thing. Anyway, the next morning was hard to wake up to. But when I realized that it was Friday that made the morning a whole lot better. At least it was Friday which means that the weekend is really close. So we had two whole days of no school work.

I was going to walk to school but sadly saw that it was pouring out. There was no way I was going to be able to walk to school in this weather. As I stepped out of my house with my jacket and umbrella about to walk to the bus stop, I saw someone's car pull up next to me. I recognized the car but couldn't see who's it was. The person then rolled down their window and I saw that Gray was the one who was driving.

"Need a ride?" He asked and I nodded my head and got in his car.

I got in and buckled my seat belt. "Thank you." I said.

"No problem."

"The weather is really bad today. It's weird because it was so nice yesterday."

"Yeah, but at least it's Friday."

"Thankfully." Then he pulled into a drive though and asked if I wanted anything. I told him I didn't have any money but he said that he'd pay. I tried to convince him not to buy anything for me, but he said that he wasn't going to leave unless I ordered something. So I picked a coffee and and egg sandwich. Gray ordered the same thing and we both laughed when we said the same order twice. I said thank you as I took sips of my coffee. We got to the school and he got a parking spot which was actually fairly close to the front door so we didn't have to walk to much in the rain.

We ran into the school building with our coffee and sandwiches and we couldn't help but laugh because we were soaked.

"Now I'm going to be wet all day!" I said, trying to wipe of my cloths, trying my best to dry them off. Sadly, it didn't work so well.

"So am I!" We laughed for a bit more, but then we heard the bell ring and we went off to class. I thanked him again for breakfast and the drive to school, and then we went our separate ways to get to our class.

I was really glad that Gray got me coffee this morning because I really needed it to be able to stay awake. I was really struggling in staying awake in class. Probably due to the fact that I hard a hard time sleeping last night.

The first two classes of my day were Boring and uneventful but I finally had a study hall and Levy, Natsu, Juvia, and Gajeel were in there. The five of us sat all near each other like we did every class, and the teacher didn't mind us talking as long as we just made sure we weren't too loud.

"I heard that you and Gray came into school together." Levy said.

"Oh yeah, he saw me walking in the rain and offered to drive me." I said. "He even bought me breakfast."

"That's so sweet!" Levy cried.

I couldn't hear Juvia that well but I'm sure she said something along the lines of "love rival" under her breathe. Whatever that means.

"Why would Gray dive you in." Natsu's asked, sounded annoyed.

"Because he's actually a nice person." I said.

"I'm a nice person!" He said.

"I know that, idiot. He just drove me in, it's not a big deal." Seriously, what was everyone making a big deal about. Sometimes I question why I'm friends with all these weird people. They make big deals out of nothing.

Natsu grunted and Gajeel whispered something in his ear which caused Natsu to hit him in the face. Gajeel was able to realise he was going to get hit so moved by not fast enough because he still got hit but at least not as hard.

"Don't hit me, Salamander!"

"Then shut your mouth, iron face!"

"Gajeel!" Levy yelled.

"Natsu!" I yelled. Me and levy both hit them on the head which caused them to stop fighting.

"What's going on back there?!" The teacher yelled at us.

"Nothing." Levy said, "we'll be quiet, sorry."

"Natsu." I said.

"What?"

"Don't go picking fights."

"I know, I know." He sighed. "Sorry, Luce."

I saw that levy and Gajeel were talking and I heard him mutter a soft "sorry" to her. The rest of their period was spent talking quietly, and me, Levy and Juvia were able to get some school work done. Natsu and Gajeel obviously got little to no work done. Then the bell rung and we all went our separate ways to our next class. We all said goodbye, but we'd be seeing each other at lunch so we all knew we'd see each other later.

The next class I had was with Gray, so we sat next to each other.

"Hey Gray." I said.

"Hey Lucy." He greeted me nicely. "How's your day going."

"It's good, but Natsu and Gajeel got into a fight last period."

"Really?l he asked. "And I missed it?" He generally looked upset that he missed their fight.

"Natsu got angry and hit him in the face."

"Sounds exciting."

"It was more annoying than anything else."

"If I was there I could have beat Natsu no problem."

"Gray!" I hit him on the head. "You're just as bad as they are! I thought that out of all of you guys, you'd be the most responsible."

"I am responsible."

"Yeah right."

"I am!"

Oh really? Is he now? "Did you do the homework that's due today?"

His eyes got wide with horror. "We had homework?" like I said, like the others, he apparently it responsible.

I couldn't help but laugh, "here you go." I said and handed him mine. "Copy my answers quickly."

"You're a life savior."

"Take it as a thank you for this morning."

Then the teacher's voice boomed in and caused all the students to stop talking. "Be quiet everyone. It's time to work." Everyone sighed in response.

After the class was finished me and Gray walked out and said goodbye and went to our next class. My next class was boring and I despised going. Nothing really happens and it was just another one of those boring useless classes that you have no interest in. I'm thankful whenever that bell rings that means I can finally leave that class for the day.

Natsu was in my next class though, so I was excited to see him. Like always, I got to the class first and I saved him a seat. He got in right as the bell rang and everyone was settling down.

"Hey, Luce." He said happily.

"Hey, Natsu." I said as I started taking out my stuff.

"I actually did the Homework last night."

"Really?" I was actually very surprised that he did it, he usually asks me for the answers. But when I looked at his paper I saw something every suspicious. He had the same exact answers as I did. word for word.

"Natsu, who did you get the answers from?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"You are accusing me of cheating? How could you? I would never- okay I got them from Gray."

"I gave him the answers last night! I'm going to kill that boy. You two need to learn to do your own work."

"You're no fun, Luce."

"You two." The teacher said to us. "Stop talking."

Me and Natsu looked at each other and knew that we would be talking after class as we always do.

The period went on with Natsu whispering to me asking what the teacher said. I told him that he can just copy my notes after class. I'll just go over it with him later.

When the class was done, me and Natsu walked down to lunch together where we would meet up with everyone else. And we walked comfortable together side by side and we didn't really talk about anything in particular.

"Lu-chan!" Levy called me over.

"Salamander." Gajeel called for Natsu.

Me and levy were talking and I head parts of what Natsu and the others were talking about.

"Have you asked that special girl out yet?" They laughed.

"seriously? There isn't anyone." I couldn't help but sigh at that, but also glad that he wasn't thinking of going with anyone. Or so he said.

"You okay Lu-chan?" Levy asked

"Yeah."

"Is it Natsu?" She asked

"Natsu? Why would it be Natsu?"

"Oh, no reason."

I just blew the question off and then they were talking about prom again.

"What about tomorrow."

"Juvia thinks that good."

"I think that's a good idea, too." I head Erza's voice.

"Dresses!" Cana yelled taking a sip from her small, metal bottle.

"Is tomorrow good, Lucy?"

"Sorry? I wasn't really listening." I totally spawned out for most of their conversation.

"Shopping for dresses tomorrow."

"Oh that's fine. Sounds like fun.

The bell rung, and that was the end of the conversation.

"I'll call you later." Levy said.

I walked out of the cafeteria to see that Natsu was waiting for me. "Let's get to class." He sighed.

"You don't seem happy about that." I laughed.

"Of course I'm not."

"You need to learn to like school."

"I can't just automatically like school. That's impossible. School isn't fun."

I laughed at his hatred of school. Maybe if he actually payed attention he might lean that he actually does like it. But knowing him, he won't.

When we got to the doors of our classroom we were about to say our goodbyes, but suddenly I tripped and was about to fall. When I was about to hit the ground, someone's arms caught me and wrapped around my wait. They pulled me up and helped to pull me up. I saw that it was Natsu who had saved me from my fall. I also noticed that we were once again centimeters apart. When he pulled me up, he pulled me up fast and suddenly we were looking into each other's eyes. We stayed like that, paralyzed, staring right at each other.. Then finally, I stepped back to pick up the books that had fallen to the ground. He kneeled down to help me pick up my books.

"Th-thanks." I said, as he handed me my stuff.

"Your welcome." I could tell that we were both flustered. When he handed me my books out hand touched for a moment, but a moment too long, I noticed. But finally the bell rung and we went into it different classrooms without another word. I spent the rest of the day pondering over what happened. I don't know why I kept replaying what had happened in my mind.

Just thinking about how it felt when he caught me. His hands on my waist. He eyes looking straight into mine. I just wanted to look into his eyes again. Have him hold me like that again. What was I thinking? This is Natsu I'm thinking of. I much be going crazy. But I can't help but think of him.

The rest of my classes were me trying my best to write down all my notes for that class.

The end of the school day bell rung in my ears and snapped me out of my day dreams. Day dreams? I can't believe I was daydreaming about Natsu. I also can't believe that it's already the end of the school day.

I packed up my stuff and began to walk out of the building when once again, I was going to be stuck in the rain. I was hoping that it would have cleared up by now.

"It's still raining." I heard someone say, walking up next to me. I soon saw that it was Gray.

"Yeah." I said sadly.

"I can take you back to your house if you want."

"Really?" I asked.

"Come on." On then we ran to his car and got in the car.

In the car we talked about the school day and how it went. It was a nice, simple conversation. Then we got to my house and we both said our goodbyes.

"Hey, Lucy."

"Yeah?" I said, unblocking my seat. I looked at him, and it looked like he had something important to say.

"Nothing." He sighed. Never mind.

That was weird "Thanks for the ride. Have a nice weekend."

And with that, the school week had ended and now it was time for the weekend.
