"Luuucy~, one more day~" the voice cooed.
"One more day for what?" I questioned to the voice. No response.
"Mind saying hi to Mommy for me~" the voice cooed again.
I shot up from the bed, gasping for air heavily. I glanced over to my side to see Natsu fast asleep. Good, now what the hell just happened. One more day for what? I glanced over at the time, 4:54. I might aswell wake up. I pushed the blanket of of my legs, pushing myself off the bed. Then something caught my arm. It was a warm hand. I glanced back to see that it belonged to a half asleep Natsu.
"Go back to sleep, you look tired," he whispered, before shutting his eyes again. I looked back at him, slightly shocked, but in the end listening to his command.
"HUH?!" I yelled, grabbing the arms of Levy and shaking her.
"Shhh! And Yes! He asked me!" she exclaimed. I squealed like a fangirl. Correction, I fangirled like a fangirl.
"Ooooh~ Gajeel asked you to the dance~" I sang and she blushed, quickly covering my mouth.
"Stop it!" she whisper yelled and I started giggling.
"Now I have something to tease you with," I smiled in victory. All of a sudden, Mira came running towards us. "Mira, what are you doing here?" I questioned. Pretty sure seniors have a different lunch then us.
"I SENSED A NEW SHIP!" she exclaimed, squealing immediately after.
"Of course you did," Levy sighed.
"Well you sensed right, Levy and Gajeel are going to the dance together!" I explained rather loudly.
"EEEEE! I SHIP IT!" She yelled, "GaLe for life!" she snickered as I joined in.
"Shut UP!" she urged, "What about you Mira, aren't you going with someone?" she asked, trying to avoid the topic.
"Well, ummmmmm...STOP TRYING TO CHANGE THE TOPIC!" She yelled out in frustraction. They're so hilarious where they're frustrated. I laughed inwardly and the two looked at me as if I was crazy.
"What are you laughing about?" Mira inquired. I began laughing even more.
"Has she gone crazy?" Levy chimed in.
"Sorry, it's just that you guys look so hilarious when you're flustered!" I exclaimed through laughter.
"Than reminds me of someone else I know," a familiar voice spoke from behind me. I stood up straight and let out a small, "Meep!" before turning around to find the holder. Of course... In front of me stood Natsu, smiling. The moment that I recognized that it was him I elbowed him with a bit of force.
"Don't sneak up on me! You scared me!" I shouted as he chuckled.
"But that takes away the fun!" he whined as I groaned,
"Why do you have to find my pain amusing?" All of a sudden the bell rang out, signalling us to our respective classes.
"See ya, Luce!" He yelled, at the door, waving his hand
"Shut up! What about you Mira? Who are you going with?!" she asked trying to change the subject.
"Well...um...STOP TRYING TO CHANGE THE TOPIC!" she yelled out, flustered. I began laughing inwardly at their animated reactions.
"What are you laughing at," Levy inquired as I doubled over with laughter.
"You guys look so hilarious when you're flustered!" I exclaimed through laughter.
"Just like you," a familiar voice spoke from behind me. I quickly turned around to find a wild Natsu with a smirk on his face. I felt my face heat up. I quickly turn away and cover it up by elbowing him with a bit of force behind it, but not enough to hurt him.
"Stop doing that! You scared me!" I exclaimed. I saw his face form into a pout,
"But that would take away all the fun," he whined.
"Why do you have to find my pain amusing?" I sighed, asking the question more to myself. Finally the world decided to end my misery and the bell rung.
"See ya Luce!" he yelled from the doorway of the cafeteria. I waved back to him, glancing back to Mira and Levy.
"Shoot, my teacher's gonna kill me!" Mira exclaimed, racing out the door, leaving me and Levy.
"Ready to go?" Levy asked.
"Yeah," I replied, but the reply barely made it out when a familiar white haired senior rushed up to me, panting,
"Lu-cy and Le-vy - make - sure - to - come - to -my - house - at - 6 -af-ter - school" she forced out between breaths. I nodded,
"Ok, and when you go to your next class, walk, your out of breath," I pushed as she nodded, walking back out the door.
"I swear you guys are crazy," I scoff, smiling.
"Yeah, but it sure makes thing more interesting," she retorted, "C'mon, let's go."
"Natsu, I'm heading out," I yelled out to the entire house from the main entrance, hoping that Natsu would hear me.
"OK!" I heard him reply. I quickly push the door out of the way, revealing the dark black sky, only illuminated by the full moon and the lampposts, which only occasional worked. It felt as though my footsteps were as loud a hammer banging on metal in the silence. Winter seems to be taking over quick. The wind whistled in the cool breeze, unable to penetrate my winter jacket. At least I dressed right this time. My eyes shot glances in other directions, hoping that I wasn't the only one here. In doing so, I saw the bottom of a windbound jacket sway in the wind, before laying down in the alley. Scratch that, I hoped that I was alone.
"Hello?" I called out into the darkness. Idiot! It's not like the person who's hiding is just going to come out! My right arm placed itself on my left arm, tightening its grip. My eyes darted around the street, trying to look away from the alleyway, but eventually it became trivial, for my eyes rested squarely on the alleyway. I noticed the gleam of light reflecting of off something in there. I squinted my eyes trying to get a better look at the item. Is that...a GUN?! I felt my breath become unsteady and my pulse pounding in my head. Why does he have a gun? And why the hell is he coming closer?! I watched in fear as the silhouette shifted. I quickly blinked, rubbing my eyes. No, that can't be real. I opened my eyes, the reflection of the light gone. I sighed in relief, shooting the area glances as I continued walking down the street. The the midst of my distraction, felt a cool metal placed on my forehead. I looked for the beholder of the weapon to find a man dressed in a black cloak, his features disguised by the shadow of the cloak and the cover of night. WHAT THE HELL! I shouted in my brain, but the words refused to form and stayed as mere thoughts. I stood still in shock as the man the black cloak spoke, his voice deep and dark,
"Lucy Heartfilia?"
