~TIME SHIP TO FRIDAY~
I wake up to my stupid alarm clock ringing. I wore my crop top, long sleeved sweater and of course jeans. It was finally Friday and I completed my first week of school here. I walked downstairs for breakfast, but realizing I didn't have time for it I ran out the door. Ever since it started to snow I couldn't drive my mom's car, and seeing how I didn't want Capricorn to drive me I have resorted to running. I walk into my classroom and sat down next to Natsu. Thankfully I wasn't late, I started that habit and it really sucked. "Wow you look tired." A certain pink headed boy said next to me. "Thanks, it's most likely because I'm running to school." I said as casually as I could. Just then Levy became interested in our conversation. "Lu-Chan I told you if you needed a ride to tell Me." she said in a disappointing tone. "Don't worry I like running to school in winter. It helps with my endurance sense my car doesn't work in snow." I said thinking of a lie on the spot. I didn't want her knowing about my family. Just then class started and I was very thankful for a reason to drop it.
I didn't really pay attention to math and social studies since I was already ahead in both. While in the gym I went to the library to check out Romeo and Juliet, for my English class. When I found out what we were reading in English class I was so excited. Even though I've read it before, it's still nice to reread books. In English we went over Shakespeare's past. I found it mostly interesting although most others in my class didn't.
I went to lunch and sat down next to Levy and ate my lunch while all the other girls talked. "So Mira how many bands and soloists from our school are participating in FBOTM?" Levy asked. "Well there is Natsu's and also Laxus's band. As for the soloists I know my sister Lisanna is, but I don't know who else." Mira answered. "Wait what's the FBOTM and second Mira has a sister?" I questioned. "FBOTM stands for Fiore's Battle of the Musicians. It's a competition were the top band and soloist will get a contract from Fiore Record Company. Basically over a period of a week whoever signed up will perform in different musical skills. For example song writing, music theory, pairing up and doing collaboration set, and so on. Although on the last day everyone will perform in front of a judge, but it's manly for the crowd's enjoyment and not the competition." Erza said looking up from her cake. "To answer who Lisanna is; she is like I said my sister but you haven't met her yet sense she hasn't been eating lunch with us." Mira clarified. "Oh, ok that makes more sense now." I said.
After lunch I went to the piano room. I worked on writing a new song. For the first time this week I noticed that Gray didn't come to the piano room. It was actually kind of nice having the room to me, and the peace and quiet made it easy to concentrate. Not that I don't enjoy his company; it's just that the quiet was nice and peaceful. In my class with Ms. Lyra worked on techniques to get more fluent. We had to play the scales from low to high and then back down. After class I saw Natsu walking up to me. "Hey Luce, want to walk to science?" he asked. "Sure." I said. "So, do you have any idea when we're going to work on our music project?" he asked, turning that little light switch on and saying 'Ohhh yea.' "Well I guess we could work on it tonight since I don't have anything really important to do." I told him as we were walking into the classroom and took our seats. "Awesome, we can work on it after school today." He said. "Ok class today we will finish up showing our projects since I didn't feel like planning anything." Mr. Clive said, walking into the classroom. The whole class Natsu and I watched a range of projects from bottle rockets to volcanos. Every now and then Natsu would whisper a comment on how it could have been a higher launch of explosion if they added this.
(After class)
"Hey Luce, can we go to your house for the project?" Natsu asked as we were walking through the halls. "Why does it have to be my house?" I asked because I personally didn't want to unless he's honest and b, I deem it a good reason. "Well my house isn't very people friendly right now." He says. "Fine, we can do it at my house but first I need to go somewhere." I told him not to be too happy about it but since his house isn't people friendly then I didn't want to be there. "Were you going? Can I come?" Natsu asked. "I'm going to an orphanage and I guess if you really want to." I explained to him. "Yea!" he exclaimed. After walking a little bit we had to get on a bus. After getting him on the bus and seated, which was quite hard might I add, I found out that he had motion sickness. Once we got off he started kissing the ground and thanking it.
After a short walk we came to a small building with a little fence around it. In the yard there was a swing set and some other toys. I walked up to the door and knocked on it. An old man came out and grinned at us. He had had an orange sweater on and had bushy eyebrows. "Lucy it's you, please come in the kids will be so happy to see you!" He exclaimed. "Yamito-san it's nice to see you again." I say and hand him a white envelope. "Lucy, please tell me this isn't another check." Yamito pleads. "Sorry, but I can't tell you that." I even say that I'm not sorry. "Lucy-" He starts but I interrupt him. "I know you don't like it but please just take it. I don't even know why you don't just take it the first time I give it to you." He shook his head and took the envelope. "LUCY-NII, when did you get here?" A boy around twelve asks me. "Romeo it's good to see you, where is everyone?" I asked him. "They're in the back room waiting for you." He said tugging my arm. "Ok, I'm coming, Natsu you want to meet everyone." I said to both of them. Walking into the music room I was greeted by a bunch of kids hugging me. "Lucy-nii, Wendy-san is crying again." The little girl named Chelia said.
