Chapter 4

Black Sad Eyes and A Fountain Full Of Surprises

My surroundings turned pitch black for a moment and then a light appeared; intense, bright, demanding attention. The light sucked me in and after almost blinding me it faded away. I opened my eyes slowly and looked at what was before my eyes. It was the park near my house where I used to play with Levy. The sky was filled with dark clouds and raindrops were beginning to fall. There was no one in the park; I was alone. The empty swings moved a little because of a strong breeze and the trees' leaves where holding tight to the stems so they wouldn't fall. The rain became heavier and my vision became a little blurry, but even though I was soaking wet I wasn't cold. There was something in the trees area in the park; it was looking at me. The figure was tall and it seemed a guy and I couldn't see its face (if it actually had one) because something that seemed a hood was covering it; it seemed like it was wearing a jacket. I was not sure if 'it' was actually 'someone', but I felt that it was piercing me with its/his eyes (if it had eyes and was looking at me.)

The figure began to advance slowly toward me.

A shiver ran down my spine and my legs went numb. I could not move; I was afraid. As it stepped out of the shadows I realized that 'it' had been 'him' all along. I was right, he was a guy. He had a masculine body and walked accordingly. The thing that covered his face was a hood (as I had thought) and I could feel his deep stare full of sadness and sorrow even though I could not see his face.

I regained control of my body and ordered my legs to move; they ran toward some trees with a path made of rocks that passed trough them. The path usually leads to a street near my house. I passed more than ten trees and hoped to see that street, but the path ended and the street was not there. Instead, there was a huge forest ahead of me. I was lost, or more accurately, the street had disappeared leaving a forest. There were not buildings or houses, like they used to be. I looked back to at least find the swings far from me, but there was none; just more trees that had not been there before. Even the path had disappeared. The rain began to fall harder than ever and my shoes were sticking to the muddy ground.

Realizing that I had not seen the guy when I turned to search for the swings, I looked desperately around to search for a shadow or something that resembled him. There was nothing, I was alone again. I let out a relieved breath I did not know I was holding and arranged my wet hair behind my ear.

I felt tired and my body began to shiver; now I was feeling cold. I walked deeper into the woods to search for something like a house, a building or a street. There was absolutely nothing more than trees.

There was a part of me that was excited to see many trees in one place and smell the wet ground. I have always loved nature. On the other hand, I was completely soaked and my clothes were dripping. I was really cold and scared that the guy I had seen earlier would appear before me.

Suddenly music began to play deeper in the woods. It was a piano. The melody was sad and mysterious; yet, beautiful.

I walked toward the melody without thinking twice about it. It was breathtaking and it filled my entire being. I was not cold anymore. The feelings that were transmitted were sorrowful and with regret, but there was a part were it became soft and pure; as if tired of crying. I could not hold the small tears that were falling down my cheeks. The melody had made me sad. Who was the person that had to suffer so much as to cry his/her heart out while playing that beautiful song?

I wanted to find out. I walked following it and with every step I took my chest hurt. I had a lump in my throat.

Finally I found a small house made of wood and bricks with a chimney that had smoke coming out. I knew that the melody was coming from it. I went near a window and looked inside. (Stop the music) The lights were on and there was a piano in there, but no one playing it to be found. Now that I think about it, the melody had stopped too about six seconds ago.

I turned around to head to the door, but I stopped. The guy from before was standing right in front of me.

I stood paralyzed in fear. The rain was still strong, but I could see his eyes this time. I could see his black eyes piercing my soul with melancholy. He walked two more steps; completely closing the distance between us without averting his gaze from mine. The he did something I did not expect. He hugged me. He tightened his grip and moved his mouth close to my ear and he whispered – Lucy…-

I opened my eyes and sat on the bed trying to straighten up my back. I put my hand on my forehead and felt it sweaty. I looked down at my hands; they were sweating too. Even though I knew it was a dream, I could still hear his deep voice resounding through my ears. I looked around and realized I was not in my room anymore. There was a large window that occupied almost all the space in the left wall. Next to it was a door made of glass and wood. It was a door that leads to a small balcony. This was great. I've always dreamt with having one. In front of me was another door; probably the bathroom door because at my right was the door were I had entered yesterday. At my left beside the large window was a small table with two seats in it. There was a light blue puff on the floor beside the bed and a small desk with a lamp on it on the other side of the bed. My bags were also next to the bed on the floor. Next to the bathroom door was a wardrobe made of dark brown wood that was inside the wall. It was not furniture you could move; it was part of the wall. There were circular glasses inside the ceiling that served as lightbulbs, modern ones. I would not have noticed them if something else in the ceiling had not captured my attention; there was a pattern of leaves carved on the ceiling that started from above the large window and continued to the ceiling above the wardrobe. It seemed that they were flying through the wind; free.

I looked down at my torso and then at my legs. I was still wearing the clothes I had yesterday. I got up and made my bed; it was not the best I could do, but it was better than nothing. I grabbed my bags from the floor, put them on the bed and began unpacking. I opened the wardrobe to put my clothes in and noticed that there were two sets of clothes already in; regular uniform and P.E uniform.

After I finished unpacking my bags and closing the wardrobe, I entered the bathroom and closed the door behind me. The bathroom was outsized for a person, but it was not exaggerated. It had a sink, a toilet, a tub and a shower. The toilet was next to the sink and the tub was beside a small shower. Everything was normal sized except for the tub, two persons could fit in there without being uncomfortable. It was too large for one person. There was a cabinet above the sink made of light blue painted wood. Soaps, shampoos, towels, bath salts and good smelling candles were inside it. The inside of the cabinet looked expensive. The bathroom walls had dark blue ceramic glued to them and the ceiling had the same modern light in it. I took my clothes of and took a good, long shower. The shower washed away my tiredness and stress from the previous day. I closed the faucet making the water flow stop and exited the shower with a towel around my body. I looked inside the wardrobe I had organized thirty minutes ago and found something to wear that matched the sunny weather outside. I grabbed jean shorts and a white t-shirt that had black feathers scattered around with the word "freedom" stamped in the middle of it. The t-shirt was short, it ended were the short began. I put on my favorite black converse and checked the clock to find out that it was 10: 47 a. m. I had not slept so much as I'd thought. The truth is that I was a little bit tired, but I did not want to sleep and dream about the guy with black eyes. I felt fear as I recalled his deep eyes, but what was more confusing was the last part of the dream: where he hugged me and whispered my name.

I shook my head trying to not remember the dream and exited the door to explore the campus better.

I walked down the corridor and noticed that there were ten rooms in this floor including mine; five at one side and five at the other. Mine was at the left side; if looking from the elevator. You could say it was nearer to the end of the corridor than the elevator. At the left end was room number 301 and at the right end (in front of room 301) was room 302. My room was next to 301 and 304 was next to 302. A weird order to put the rooms in.

Next to the elevator was a door which probably lead to the emergency staircase, and in the middle of the corridor (at the right side) was a small table with a vase that had fresh flowers in it.

I walked towards the elevator and pushed the button with a downward arrow; to my surprise, the elevator was already here…as if waiting for me. Its metal door opened, inviting me to pass. And without thinking twice I stepped in and the metal door behind me closed.

Inside the elevator I pressed the first floor's button and waited. After some seconds passed, it stopped and its doors opened to let me free. I stepped out to the main floor and quickly recalled yesterday. When I had entered here the previous hours I was too tired to notice small details (and even big ones), but now that I had showered my eyes moved fast absorbing information.

At my right was a door that had "Dining Room" written above it. At my left was a door identical to the previous one, but instead of having "Dining Room" above it; the letters read "Bathrooms". There was a living room in the middle and four more doors that read 101, 102, 103 and 104 respectively were at the end of the corridor.( If you could call it corridor…because it was far more wider than the third floor's corridor.

I walked to the entrance doors that were made of glass and pushed them; they were lighter than what I had thought.

Already outside, I followed a path made of rocks in all shapes. The rocks did not stood out, and thus, the path was not irregular. It was wide and long. While I followed the path, I could not stop myself from observing the trees grass and nature in general that surrounded me. One thing that I like about this high school so far is the nature it has. I wonder if this is going to be the only thing I'll like about Fairy Tail.

I continued walking till I saw something that captured my attention; a fountain. Its base was circular (like most of the fountains I've seen), but there was a statue of a fairy in the middle and water came out from its magic wand.

Under the water was something shiny that did not resemble a penny; it was a keyhole with a feather craved beside it. What was a keyhole doing th-

Suddenly there was a big splash in the water and something came out…or wait…someone?

Pink wet hair came into view and green eyes met mine.
