55: Angels
It was a day much like today; where the pitter-patter of the rain was all anyone could hear amongst the rumbling of the thunder and flashes of lighting. It was on a day like today where I first met him; a bright light on a dreary day… my diamond in the rust… my only light in the dark place I was at. A place where my mother died giving birth to me… where my brother blamed me for all the hardships and crappy foster parents… where I didn't have any friends that I could rely on… That was until I met Natsu.

I was soaked when I arrived at school; the rain only seemed to come down heavier and heavier the closer. I was drying off my hair when I heard the teacher walk in and announce we would be having a new student transferring in. I took my seat much like the rest of my classmates did as the teacher introduced the new student; "Class I would like you to meet Dragneel Natsu-san!"
My whole body froze for a moment; N-Natsu…? Wait… it might not even be him…I should glance up quickly just in case. I slowly brought my eyes over to the student standing in the front of the room as he began to introduce himself: "I'm Natsu… Nice to meet you all!" with a wide, unmistaken-able grin.
I watched as his eyes scanned the room before locking eyes with me; his face lit up and I could hear many of the girls behind me swoon all wondering if one of them had caught his attention. He whispered something into the teacher's ear who sighed before nodding in response; I watched in awe as he sat in the empty desk beside me with a soft: "Never thought I'd see you here,"
I offered my damp towel to him after noticing that he too was soaked much like I was.
"Thanks" He smiled before drying his rosy spikes as I thought back to a time when my brother, Lyon was still nice to me he use to tell me stories of how our mother was watching over us with the angels.
Who'd ever thought I'd meet one?
