Oh god.

Here it is.

I REALLY didn't wanna put this in this story but...well, it belongs here.

This is so embarrassing xD

Well here it is,

my first ever NaLu story

ever.

I didn't write a summary on here so I'm improvising.

Natsu and Lucy hate each other.

(That's all I remember)


Chapter 1

Lucy,

I raced down the hallways, hurrying to get to lunch. I wanted to get there before all my friends so I could sit in my normal seat, which they tried sitting in to tease me. I pushed the double doors open and hurried to our regular table, sitting down quickly. Satisfied, I grinned to myself before pulling out a book Levy had let me borrow.

"Lucy!" Someone exclaimed. I looked up to see Levy and Lisanna grinning at me. I smiled back and waved happily.

"Levy! Lisanna!" I grinned back at them when Levy sat across from me and Lisanna next to me.

"Hey Luce! Whatcha reading?" Levy asked with interest. I held the book up, showing her the cover. Her eyes brightened and she smiled at me.

"Happy you like the book." She said, pleased with herself. I rolled my eyes and smirked at her, getting back to the book.

"Lucy! C'mon talk to us and stop reading!" Lisanna whined, tugging on my arm. I rolled my eyes playfully and put the book down, surrendering.

"Hey Mirajane and Erza!" Levy called out, smiling wide. They smiled politely and sat down at the table. I sighed and put a hand on my forehead.

"That's why I pretend to read and hide behind books; to act like I don't know you." I teased her. She rolled her eyes at me and stuck her tongue out at me oh-so-maturely. I rolled my eyes again and stood up, the cafeteria getting louder and louder.

"Can you get me a fork please? Love you~" Lisanna said a little too innocently, smiling that smile she always had. I rolled my eyes and nodded my head, walking to the condiments stand we had.

I picked up a fork and a spoon for my soup, turning around to get back. Lisanna smiled gratefully when she saw the fork in my hand. I got distracted for a moment, and the next thing I knew someone was tackling me to the ground, something sticky sliding down my shirt.

"Oi!" The boy grunted, picking himself up off of me, rubbing his head.

"What the heck you idiot! Who do you think you are, look at my shir-" I ranted, about to pummel him into a pulp. I picked my head up to glare at the stupid idiot only to find myself face to face with the worst person possible.

Natsu Dragneel.

When I realized who it was I immediately backed away and stood up, hoping he wouldn't notice who I was.

His face contorted into a sneer of annoyance. He snapped his head up to glare at me and all of the anger was replaced by pure shock.

I tried not to notice how the whole cafeteria had quieted down to watch our predicament with hungry eyes. Natsu just continued to stare at me and I looked down to my shirt to see chili stained into it. My frown deepened and I forced myself not to look at him and just push past him. I raced to the girls bathroom to get the stain out as much as I could, angered secretly at Natsu.

"Lucy!" I heard someone yell in the hallway, searching for me through the coming and going students that had classes at the time.

I huddled against the sink, my heart pounding in my chest still. I let out a deep breath and turned the water on, making it extra cold.

In the middle of wiping the stench off Erza came into the bathroom with a sympathetic look, holding something behind her back.

"Here Luce, I got you your gym shirt from.. well gym." She smiled weakly, holding out the gym shirt that had been behind her back.

I smiled gratefully, sighing in relief. "Thanks Erza." I said timidly, going into a stall and putting the shirt on, holding the dirty one in my hand with distaste.

"Don't worry, I beat Natsu up along the way." Erza grinned to herself, like she was reliving the moment.

I rolled my eyes and smiled, pulling my hair out of the collar of the shirt so it hung loose.

"That's nice, but wasn't really necessary." I said gently. Erza cracked her knuckled and stood straightly.

"Everything Natsu does deserves a punch." She joked. I nodded, knowing sometimes, more than others, it was actually true.

"But when Natsu's not being…well.. Natsu, he's not that bad." I said, for some crazy reason defending him.

Erza nodded in understanding. "True." She said, then went back to me on the topic.

"So c'mon, we need to get to the next class. Being late is not acceptable!" She forced, dragging me forcefully to our next class. I didn't resist and let her pull me and push me into a seat.

"Hey Luc-why are you wearing your gym shirt?" Gray raised a suspicious eyebrow at me, his eyes darting to Erza for an explanation.

"I ran into Natsu at lunch." I said quietly, trying to avoid the subject.

Gray nodded slowly in understanding and turned back around, a familiar pink boy running in as fast as he could, sitting down at the last minute like always.

I would've laughed at him for it, if it hadn't had been Natsu.

The teacher walked in with an annoyed look on her face, glaring at all of us like we had ruined her life.


The bell finally rung for the end of school and I sighed in relief. Finally I'd be able to go home.

Shaking the thought off, I slammed my locker closed and readjusted my heavy bag, beginning to walk home.

"Where do you think you're going?" A voice from behind me asked in hateful amusement. The skin on the back of my neck prickled, my whole being freezing up. I let out a sigh and turned around, keeping on my poker face.

None other than Katie Ash was standing there, a smirk on her face. Behind her were two of her friends, and to be honest, the only one that scared me was Ollie.

Ollie didn't look like much, a brunette with to many tries of behind a blonde, but she could break a man's jaw thirteen different ways.

I just stared at her as if I was bored, crossing my arms across my chest. If you didn't lead them on, then they'd leave you alone.

She sauntered over to me, walking around me as if observing. I narrowed my eyes at her, watching every move she made.

"So Luce, everyone saw the accident with Natsu. I didn't think that was really nice, you know?" She tsked at me, staring at me in disgust. Just my luck she knew my past with Natsu.

I shrugged my shoulders in response, not knowing where she was going with this. I looked at my wrist watch and sweat dropped, turning around to leave.

"Look I really gotta g-" I started, only to be cut off by someone yanking on my hair. I bit my tongue hard to keep from crying out in surprise. They turned me around and no surprise there, it was Ollie. She had a devilish grin on her face, her eyes a little mad looking.

"Look princess, I don't care what you gotta do. I'm here to have some fun." She said, her crazy eyes darting around with excitement. I paled in response, making sure to keep my mouth shut tight.

"I need to get-home!" I yelled at them, tugging on my bag. Ollie held it from the other end, pulling it so hard I fell to the ground, at a time like this, why must my clumsiness appear?

Ollie's foot appeared in my vision, stomping down hard on my arm. I finally let myself shriek in pain, my arm making a sickening noise.

Katie laughed, I seriously thought she was a little cuckoo upstairs.

"Now now, we don't want to make this big. Let's keep this between us." Katie hissed in my ear, Ollie's foot resting dangerously on my leg.

"Or else Ms. Princess will actually find out what real pain is!" Ollie laughed loudly, grinning down at me with pleasure. I narrowed my eyes at her and tried getting up. I wasn't going out without a fight!

"Ooh Princess wants to play the hero, eh? Let's play." Ollie said, cracking her knuckles and allowing me up. I staggered to my feet, hugging my arm to my chest.

"Why are you even messing with me?" I growled, throwing a fist forward sloppily. I was never taught how to fight, but Natsu had given me basics. I just wish I could remember them.

Ollie ducked down and swept my feet from under me, pushing me forcefully to the ground with her foot. I let out a noise of pain and started breathing heavily, trying to get air into my lungs.

I felt something wet stick to the back of my head and suddenly Natsu was in front of me. Weird, why would I be hallucinating Natsu?

"Eh? Lucy!" Natsu's eyes widened when he saw me on the ground, a sorry mess. I felt embarrassed, getting beat up so easily.

My vision began getting dimmer and dimmer, the last image I saw was Natsu's eyes flaming with anger and the girls running off.


My eyes flickered open slowly, the first thing I noticed was the pink fluff of cotton candy in front of me, and the blue fluff of cotton candy.

I blinked my eyes twice, finally getting them unbury, only to find myself only inches away from a pair of black eyes that were focused intently on me.

"…"

"KYAAAA~!" I screamed, punching the person into the wall across the room. I felt slightly exposed and looked down to see myself in a hospital gown. Blushing, I pulled the covers over myself only to feel a pain in my arm.

"Don't work yourself Luce." The voice said, making me freeze. The only person to ever call me that was…

"Meooow~" A purr interrupted my thoughts. I was about to look down when something jumped up on the bed, planting itself on my chest.

"Happy." The pink haired boy whined, walking over to my bed and scooping the cat up, making me flush brighter.

"Pervert!" I yelled, knocking him in the head again. He dropped the blue cat to the floor, a dark aura surrounding him.

"Would you stop hitting me!" He roared in anger. I held back the urge to flinch, frowning at him.

"Stop being a perv and I'll stop hitting you!" I retorted, fuming. How dare he put his hands on me then get mad when I fight back!

"I'm not being a perv! If I remember correctly, I saved you!" He growled, his eyes narrowed. I crossed my arms over my chest, turning away from him stubbornly. After a few moments of silence, another voice was heard.

"Oh good, you're awake." The voice said cheerfully. I looked over to see a tall man in a lab coat, a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. "You were quiet lucky that this young man found you. You had a bad concussion but you should be find to go home. Your arm was broken and we need to put a cast on it before you go of course." He told me my 'stats', his stereotypical clipboard in his hands.

"I know it is none of my business, but what were you doing to get in this condition?" The doctor asked me. I opened my mouth hesitantly but closed it shut, looking like a fish out of water.

"I…I fell." I said quietly, staring down at my hands in my lap. The doctor rose an eyebrow at me, knowing I was no where even close to stairs. He nodded, respecting my silence.

"Well then, I need to go speak to the nurses and call your parents. I'll be back shortly." He said formally.

"Uh I don't-I don't have any…parents." I said quietly, hanging my head lower. I didn't want to meet the doctors eyes-or worse-Natsu's.

An awkward silence formed in the room before the doctor cleared his throat. "My apologies miss, I'll just go call your legal guardia-"

"I'm emancipated." I said stiffly, cutting him off. His eyes widened slightly but he managed to stop, controlling himself. I bit my lip, practically glaring at my hands. I heard rustling and heard the click of a door. I let out a deep sigh, feel sadness gnaw at my stomach.

Then a thought hit me.

I was in the hospital.

The hospital.

Oh god..

I absolutely feared the hospital, the place where it seemed that death always awaited me. I tried calming my breathing slightly before a voice cut through my panic, slightly anchoring me.

"When were you deciding to tell me?" He asked bluntly, hurt evident in his voice. I bit my lip hard enough to draw blood, wincing slightly.

"Tell you? Why would I tell you?" I said back harshly, staring at the wall instead. Happy jumped back onto my bed and took a seat on my head, his belly rumbling with purrs.

"Because we're best friends!" He exclaimed angrily, punching the wall. I set my glare on him, my eyes hardening.

"Best friends? When were we ever that? If I remember correctly, it was you abandoned me, so don't fuss at me about this." Ok, a little to cold I admit, but it had hurt me.

The hurt look in his eyes pricked my heart, but I ignored it completely. Who cares about him? Not me.

"I…I…whatever." He huffed, deeming me victor of the argument. I smiled smugly, raising my good hand to pet the cat who was nestling my head.


"Lu-chan what happened!" Levy exclaimed when I walked into homeroom the next day, my arm in a cast. I felt eyes on the back of my head and slowly turned around, met with the evil smirks of Katie and her barbies.

"Nothing." I answered nonchalantly, secretly shivering. Those girls were seriously creepy.

"Natsu's coming-Kya~ He's so cute!" A girl whispered next to me, hearts in her eyes. I snorted, sticking my nose out like I didn't care, and I really didn't. Natsu was dead to m-

"Hey girl, this is yours." A cold voice said in front of me, making me look forward. I stared surprisingly into the cold eyes of Natsu. I blinked before looking at what he dropped.

My book, oh thank the lord he found it, that was a rental! I sighed in relief, picking it up and hugging it to my chest.

"Than-"

"Yeah whatever." He grumbled, plopping down into his seat. I narrowed my eyes at him, feeling a need of defending myself.

"That was rude, don't you think?" I hissed.

He turned around slowly, drawing his words out. "I think what is rude is how you talk to me." He replied snottily, making my anger rise.

"Like you have room to talk about those sort of things!" I lashed back.

"Ughh you talk soo much. No wonder you don't have many friends." He groaned as if talking to me was an inconvenience.

"H-hey! I have a lot of friends thank you!" I shouted back, getting the attention of a few people. The barbies started whispering to themselves, an evil glint in their eyes.

"Sure sure. Whatever you say lemonhead." He grumbled back.

"What did you just call me?" I demanded, shooting up from my seat. The teacher was in his chair, snoozing his career away.

"Lemonhead. What about it?" He smirked, liking my reaction.

"Shut up cotton candy!" I snarled, about to hit the guy. Something flashed in Natsu's eyes, saying I had gone way to far. I sat back down, not liking to admit it, but kind of scared.

"It's Salmon!" He hissed angrily, turning around and ignoring me. I looked down to my book in my hands until the bell rung, sighing slightly.

I was about to leave when a hand shot out, pushing all my things off my cluttered desk and onto the floor.

"Hey!" I protested, glaring up at the criminal. Two blue eyes met my line of vision, making my heart sink into the pit of my stomach.

"Seems our warning didn't stop you from talking to Natsu, eh?" A voice snickered from behind her, making me gulp. I fell out of my seat to pick my things up, only to receive a loud smack on the cheek. My eyes widened as I cupped my swelling cheek, keeping my tears in my eyes.

"Warning number two." She growled into my ear before she stalked off with her two friends. I huddled in my spot, my arms wrapped around my legs.

The bell rung, signaling I was officially late. I didn't care though, not at all. I let out a strangled sob, not able to hold my emotions in any longer. I missed my mother, she always knew what to do. She'd help me and tell me she loved me, making sure everything would be alright.

I even missed my father.

I cried my heart out in a janitors closet, only to stop when I heard the creak of the door.

"Luce?" A worried voice called into the dark room. I put a hand over my mouth to keep from him hearing my sobbing, not wanting to see that boy.

Yet his footsteps drew closer to me, closing the door and leaving us in complete darkness, his loud breathing giving away his spot.

"Luce," He said, now standing in front of me. I felt an arm on my shoulder and instantly pulled away. The light flickered on and he stared down at me with a blank expression.

"What do you want!" I snapped, wiping my tears away as casual as possible. "Well? Are you worrying about me?" I couldn't help but taunt, those girls had put me in a bad mood.

His expression hardened and he scoffed, looking away. "Don't kid yourself, the teacher sent me out here to find you." His voice was steely, and I blinked my eyes rapidly to keep from crying again. I wouldn't cry in front of him.
