Natsu waits outside the Edolas University Gates, leaning against his red car
Attracting attention of every student that come out of the gates
Scrolling though his phone bored, the attention he receives? It's normal. Doesn't effect him that much
Meanwhile
Lucy walks out of her class with Levy and Juvia, her only friends of the entire university
"That was so boring" levy yawns
"Girls, there is some hottie outside gates" Juvia taps both of them "it's all over the community page"
"What is he doing outside? Attention seeker" levy says looking at the posts
"Its a Dragneel. What do you expect?" Juvia rolls her eyes
"Why is he here though? Arent both of our University on bad terms?" Lucy asks them as they steps out of their building
"OoOo Drama Drama" Levy sings walking faster towards the gate
Natsu wasn't surrounded, the students would just pass by him in awe or irked.
He lifts his head up, looking at the girl from the ID. She didn't notice him, she was busy scrolling through her phone
He leans away, stepping up to block the girl's path who drifted away from levy and Juvia
"Sorry" lucy says trying to move away but natsu blocks it, lucy looks up this time
"Watch where you are going heartfilia" he says putting the ID strap around her neck
"Why do you have this?"
"Don't walk around the city alone. The chances of you dying while trying to save someone is more" he turns heel
"Who are you to tell me that!" She snaps back, natsu stops turning his head only
"You're right" he smiles, getting inside his car and revving away
A group of boys dressed in basketball jerseys come out of the gates looking at the little circle made around the blonde
"Lucy?" One of the boys call her, stepping before her "do you know that guy?" He was irritated
"Who doesn't?" She says walking away not wanting to talk to the guy
But he grabs her hand, just to stop her
"I'm just worried for you lucy" he says but lucy removes his hand
"You shouldn't" she says as Juvia and Levy join her, they reach the parking lot getting into Juvia's car
••••••••••••
"She is gonna complain later" Juvia says, her mouth holding a tiny silver spoon
They were sitting inside their shared apartment. Levy and Juvia looking at a stress eating Lucy
"Lucy could you stop!" Levy takes away the tub of ice cream lucy was eating with a spatula
"One more spoon and I'll be done"
"One more spoon and you will regret" Juvia says taking away the tub
"Its just how his personality is lu, they are the royals...think in what atmosphere he grew up" levy says
"I don't care about that jerk, it was the other asshole who is stressing me"
"Who? You're fiance?" Juvia comes back with a glass of water
"Urghhh..." lucy slams the cup on the table "I can't even say my word in this"
"Did you're mom say agree too?" Levy asks
"She is forced as always" lucy says
"Bish, that ginger head is gonna get some from me one day" Juvis cracks her knuckles
They laugh, then continue with their talks for the day
As night falls, lucy heads out to a nearby cafe for some coffee
With her exams coming up, she was in need of a lot of caffeine
"Chocolate Hot brew, please" she says
She takes the token and sits beside the window, rows of tall chairs.
"Doc!"
Lucy turns around seeing Romeo
"Oh..hey...umm..." she pauses not knowing the name of the boy
"Romeo" he smiles extending his hand
"Right, you came here alone?" She asks him
He laughs at the question, turning his body to a noisy table "we are all here...would you like to join us?"
"Looks fun but I need to go. I'll join you next time" lucy answers sweetly
Romeo's face falls dull at her denial, he didn't expect her to join them but a little hope?
"Okay...!Please go home safe!" He smiles brightly leaving lucy
Her order comes up and she leaves looking back at the laughing table "where is the jerk?" She says
"Jerk?"
Lucy shrieks, her coffee hand squeezing the cup a little making the contents fall on her hand
"Ah! H-hot! ack!" She let's go of the cup
She looks at Natsu who back away with raised hands "not my fault...I just said one word"
"Are you crazy? Wh-who...ahh" she holds her hand
"Gray" natsu says looking at the girl's hand "come out"
Gray comes out of the cafe, immediately looking at Lucy's hand as natsu points his finger
"Is it okay...if I?" He looks at her face for permission as he puts his hand out to touch her
She nods and Gray blows out cold air, bringing out instant goosebumps
One of the Royals? She thinks are all these guys royals?
"There...that should do it for a while" he let's go of her hand
"Th-thank you and You..." she glares at the pink head "Stay away from me"
"You'll regret saying that" natsu gives her a playful smirk
"Never" lucy walks away
"What did you do?" Gray asks him as they walk into the cafe
"I just...repeated what she said" he says sitting beside romeo
"What did she say?" Erza hands Gray his Ice.A
"Jerk" the table bursts into laughter again
