Today for school, Lucy was picked up by Cana on account of a massive headache. There was no way she was peddling to school in her condition. It was times like these when Lucy wished she could drive herself. Biking was such a hassle and begging her friends to give her rides everywhere made her feel like such a burden. Lucy kept trying to apply her mascara in the car, but her throbbing head made it nearly impossible. The blonde sighed in defeat and returned to her reclined position in frustration.

"If the headache is that bad then maybe you shouldn't have come to school." Cana lectured.

"Are you kidding? I'm not missing school because of some lousy headache." Lucy replied, rubbing her temples.

"I think you might change that opinion when you see Erza today." Cana smirked.

The blonde student shuddered at the thought. She hadn't forgotten, more like she was avoiding thinking of what the consequences of ditching Erza's fundraiser would be. Though it wasn't exactly her fault. It was that pink-haired idiot who made them miss the event. If he weren't so irresponsible, he would've known the way. Yet, even though it was a hassle to go through all that, it came with it's plus sides. She actually enjoyed herself, it was sort of thrilling and Natsu, (although she didn't want to admit it) was actually really fun to be around. Though, he still gave her a massive headache. Perhaps her current headache was just an after-effect of what went down yesterday.

"I've been meaning to ask you," Cana started, smiling mischievously at Lucy, "how come you and Natsu ditched us yesterday? Did something happen that I should know about?"

Lucy's cheeks went into a deep shade of red. She should've expected someone to say something about what went down yesterday, but the way Cana was implying it made it seem way more scandalous than it really was.

"Well Natsu and me were driving and we sorta got…...lost." Lucy explained.

A confused look contorted Cana's face.

"Lost? Did Natsu not know the way?" Cana asked.

"Yeah, that idiot didn't know how to get there."

"Lucy, Natsu did know the way, he was at the fundraiser before, but since Juvia and I were busy handling things with Erza there he offered to pick you up." Cana stated.

In light of the truth, Lucy throbbing headache multiplied by 100.

"THAT SON OF A-"


"Hey Luce!" The pink haired boy ran after his new blonde companion, ignoring the curious and intense stares of his "fangirls" around him. When he finally caught up to her and grabbed her shoulder, Lucy whipped around and scowled at him.

"Don't talk to me"

"Wait what?"

"I know what you did Natsu! Why'd you lie to me?"

Natsu was taken aback by this sudden accusation, but realization quickly hit him.

"Oh um, you figured it out huh?"

"So it is true. And yes I 'figured it out'." Lucy spat angrily.

"Listen. Yes I lied to you when I said I don't know which road to take, and I deliberately left my phone, but the ditch and the field was not planned." Natsu explained casually.

"Okay whatever. I just don't get why you lied."

"It was funny."

Lucy rolled her eyes and started walking away once again until Natsu grabbed her wrist and pulled her close, his mouth by her ear and his warm breath on her neck sending shivers down her spine.

"Truth is blondie, this was the only way I could get to know you." He whispered ever so softly, pulling away he flashed her his signature grin and started walking away.

Lucy ran after him,

"Wait! Why me?" Lucy questioned, raising an eyebrow.

"That's for me to know." Natsu concluded, heading off down the hall with lovestruck girls following after him.

Lucy huffed, the desire to get some answers started taking over her. Why did Natsu want to hang out with her so much? It was time for her to go to the only people who could give her an accurate answer.

After discussing it with Mira, Lucy didn't get the answer she was expecting. She had thought that maybe she was the next victim for a prank of his or something like that. Instead it turned out Natsu had been wanting to get to know the "new girl" for quite some time now, that would explain all the staring, and another thing was that he found the blonde interesting. Lucy scrunched her nose up at the word, interesting. What was that supposed to mean?


Back at home from a long day of school, Lucy cuddled up with her favourite book. It was dark out and since she finished her homework, Lucy decided to take it easy. After twenty minutes of reading a loud noise was heard from upstair in the blonde's bedroom. Slowly, Lucy grabbed a frying pan from her kitchen and started making her way up the stairs sneakily, making sure not to make any noises. She tiptoed up her wooden stairs until she finally got to the second floor, she gripped the frying pan tightly, ready to use it at any moment When she reached the door of her bedroom she peeped into to see the silhouette of a man just by her window. When the figure stepped on to the floor and started walking towards the door, Lucy got ready to hit him with a surprise attack. She peeped through the crack in her door as the figure got closer, but something about him caught her eye, before she pulled away she caught a glimpse of the man's hair. Pink hair.

"NATSU DRAGNEEL?!" Lucy yelled as she jumped in front of him out of nowhere, the man didn't even flinch.

As if this whole situation wasn't a big deal the male nonchalantly replied, "The one and only."

It took all of Lucy's willpower to stop herself from whacking the pink haired idiot with her frying pan.

"WHY ARE YOU IN MY HOUSE?"

"I felt like coming, you need to relax blondie." The male said, ruffling Lucy's blonde hair while walking past her.

"Plus I was bored, and hungry." Natsu added.

"SO?"

"Sooo I was hoping you'd entertain me, and give me food." The male said casually.

This is going to be a long night. Lucy sighed to herself.
