Lucy, Loke, Yukinio, and Zeref all walked to school. It was a nice day in mid December and everyone was excited for Winter break. It had been weeks since Misspent gifts became really popular and they were well known throughout the small country already.(Fiore and mangnolia are small, they are like... only have a few 'states' as poeple would call them so news travels fast)
"So are you guys going to visit your families?" Yukino asked as they walked.
"Loke nodded, "Im going with Aries and we are going to meet her parents,"
"what about you Lu-chan?" Yukino asked the quiet blond looking at the ground.
"Im probubly just going to stay in the House and spend Christmas with Mustache Man," She said with a fake smile.
"He hates it when you call him that Princess," Loke said poking her cheek.
"But arent you going to see your family?" Yukino asked.
Lucy shrugged, "My mom died when i was young, and i havent talked to my father in a while,"
"Well its the holidays! Its the time to spend woth the ones you love," Yukino saqid happily kicking some snow that was on the ground.
Lucy smiled at the other girl, "What about you Yukino? What are you doing this break?"
Yukino grinned widely and practically shouted, "Im going to see my sister! Its been a while since ive seen her and i cant wait!"
"what about you Zeref-san?" Loke asked the quiet emo.
He shrugged, "i dont celebrate any holidays," he wispered.
Yukino gasped, "You dont celebrate anything?! No Christmas? no Nothing?"
Zeref nodded. and Yukkino frowned.
The walk was silent after that.

"What the hell do you mean its due next week?!" Natsu yelled at Freid.
"I mean exatcly that. next week is the last week before breaka nd i want your projects turned in before then," Freid repeated for the fifth time.
"Its oay Natsu, our project is practically done," Yukino said trying to calm the pink haired maniac. Natsu just pouted like a little kid.
Lucy couldnt help but think he was cute when he did that and smiled at his childish attitude.
"Even though you diddnt doa nthing," Lucy mumbled and got a chidish glare from the pinkett tha made her giggle.
"Yukinos right," Jellal said, "We are done. Now we can just turn it in and relax the rest of the time,"
"Great!'' Natsu sadi happily. He changed emotions so fast.
"Hey Jellal, do you have anything planned this winter break?" Yukino sked the bluenett.
"Jellal sat with the three of them and said, "Im going to visit some old freinds that have been traveling fro the past year. We are all going to a big christmas Party being held by some rich guy. Apperently all the big families are invited,"
Natsu but in, "Im going to that party too! I was going to go with Lissanna but after our breakup i dont know who im taking,"
Lucy did a double take, "You and LIssanna broke up? But what will happen to your band?"
Natsu shrugged, "We are still friends, she just decided that she diddnt like the way i acted or whatever. Apperently im, immature? whateer that means,"
Lucy a nd Yukino laughed while Jellal smiled. He was so stupid!
Natsu looked mad, "Whatever,"
" so Lucy what are you doing this winter break?" Jellal asked the hgiggleing blond.
Natsu raised an eyebrow. He hopped she would give away somethging about herself. But Yukino answered for her, "Shes gonna stay here. Aperently she doesnt want to see her family. Or at least what she has left of it,"
Jellal looked at Lucy confused. Lucy looked at the desk embarassed, "Whats left?"
"Well... my mom, she um, passed away from cancer when i was six," She sadi quietly.
"But what about your dad?" Jellal asked her. Natsu felt a pang of sadness for the blond. He lived with his foster father Igneel, so he hadnt ever met his birth parents, spo he knew how it felt to be motherless.
Lucy snorted, "Yeah. Likei want to go see that bastard,"
The conversation had Natsu full attention.
"What happened between you two?" yukino asked softly.
"After my mother died, he bacame closed off and cold to me. Only caring about his stupid buisness. he got rid of me as fast as he could," Lucy said witth bitterness.
Yukino had tears in her eyes and hugged the blond, "IM SO SORRY YOU HAD TO GO THROUGH ALL ATHAT! YOUVE HAD SUCH A BAD LIFE IM SO SORRY!"
Lucy just rolled her eyes and pulled away from the teen, "It doesnt matter, i dont want to talk to him anyway,"
Soon the bell rang and the students dispersed. Morning classes where boring and nonepf them were fready for what was going to happen at lunch.
Lucy ahd just gottemn her lunch and was going to sit with her band, Yukino, and Levy when she saw someone she hoped she wouldnt have to see again. She quickly ran to the table her friends hwer sitting at and threw her plate down.
"Wow, bunnygirl. Slow down," Gajeel said.
Lucy looked around frantically as she sat down. She looked freaked out.
Levy put a hand on her friends shoulder getting a yelp from her friend, "Hey, Lu-chan? Whats wrong?"
Lucy took a few breaths and sadi, "i saw someone i dont want to see,"
"Was it Pinkie again?" Minertva asked taking a bite of a carrot.
Lucy shook her head, "it was someone my dad works with,"
" ," The blond heard from behind her. She froze in fear. She saw the looks her freinds where giving the man behind her. She closed her eyes and turned around. Behind her was a tall man with a goatee, sunglasses, white hair and a nice crisp suite.
"Capricorn," She breathed. She saw the looks she was getting from kids around her.
"Your father wants to speak to you ," Capricorn said.
Lucy shook her head, "Its good to see you Capricorn but im not going to see Papa,"
Capricorn looked at her through his dark sunglasses, "Im afraid it is not a choice . Im sorry,"
Lucy sighed and stood up, "Fiine but if he does something..."
capricorn nodded, "I know,"
Lucy turned her head to her freinds and smiled, "Ive got to go speak to the doutch who created me. ill explain later,"
They nodded in understanding nad watched her as she followed the tall man through the crowd. Everyone was watching the blond go with the mna that looked like he belonged to the FBI.
"I am sorry i had to do that in front of your classmates, ," Capricorn said as he led her to the office that her father was waiting at.
"Its okay Capricorn, They had to find out one day right?" Lucy said and he opened the door to reveal a man in his mid fourties with a light brown graying mustche and gray suite sitting behing the desk, "Papa,"
"Lucy," he sadi back nodding to the chair in front of the desk. She sat at it as Capricorn shut the door, "How have you been?"
She rolled her eyes, Like he gives a crap, she thought but sadi, "good. How has work been going?"
He diddnt show any emotion to his daughter and said, "Work has been good,"
"Okay just cut to the chase. What do you want Papa?" Lucy asked tired of the small talk.
"Right to the point. Just like your father," he said, "Fairthy well, i wanted to ask you to come home for the break from school,"
This caught the teen off guard, she shook her head as if she heard wrong and said, "What? Why do you want me home all of a sudden?"
"Is it wrong for a father to want to see his daughter for the holiday season?" Her father asked.
Lucy laughed, "With you, yes. You never want to 'just see' your family. Whats this really about?"
"I want you to come to attend the Winter Ball i am hosting. Many of your fellow student will be there, and i want them to have a good impression on Heartphilia Railroads. You also have to mingle with people your age so you can marry into a rich family and carry out the family buisness," he said.
Lucy shook her head, "I knew it. You just want me to go so you can get more money. Well i dont want to take over the 'Family buisness'. I just want to write and play my music,"
"Thats right. I heard you have become apart of a musical group with a group of delinquents. I want you out of that band," he said.
Lucy stood up and sadi, "NO! i finally found somehwere that i belong and your not taking it away from me Papa. Those people might be delinquents but they are better people than most of the students of this school. We are making a stand and i dont want to just quit. I wont. No mattter what you say. Mama would have wanted me to do what i felt right. And if i cant do this things will keep going on tyhe way they were before,"
"What is wrong with how it was before?" he father asked.
"Before, this country revolved around money and popularity. People looked down on poeple lesser than them. People like you do that. Mama diddnt though," she sadi quietly, "You cannot tell me what to do,"
He father looked at her and sighed, "I diddnt want to have to tell you this because of what happened with your mother but i guess you will not listen unless you know," Lucy was confused, "I am sick,"
Lucy froze for the second time that day. She sat back down and let her father contunue talking, "I have an illness that they have not made a cure for yet. They are working on it though. But it will not be ready for testing for a year or so. I am bcomeing more nad more weak, and soon i will not be able to withstand running the buisness. But we are at our peak and i dont want to go down just yet. That is why i need you to find a suitable husbund to take my place,"
"But why do i have to? Why cant... Capricorn take over the buisness? He knows everything there is to know and would probubly love to do it," She said looking over to the tall man that she had known since before her mother had passed. She saw a soft smile on his fcae and knew that he would love to take over the buisness.
"Im sure Capricorn wouldnt want to have the burden of it. I believe that one of the men at the Ball will be more than happy to though. You do not have to get married yet. You can wait till you have graduated, i just want you to be ready," Her father explained.
Lucy nodded, and thought about it.
She sighed, "Ine Papa. Ill come over this winter break for the ball," She wispered loud enough for him to hear as she looked down at her hands on her lap.
He father smiled, "Good girl. I will have poeple come to pick you up after school to bring you home,"
Lucy looked up, "Wait, break doesnt start till next week,"
Her father nodded and stood, "i know but i want you to come as soon as you can so we can have your fitted for your dress and so i can spend some time with you,"
Lucy was freaked out. Was this the same man she knew before?
"Now, you must be going on to class. Someone will be at your House after school," He sadi as Capricorn opened the door and he walked out leaving the blond alone in the room to think about what had just happened.
And her father makes an appearence!
