Magnolia High was a all girls school and the most virtuous girl there was the one and only 'Lucy Heartfilia'.
She had all the qualities that a fine lady should have, be it good grades, good handwriting, dressing style, politeness, maturity, singing or playing she was the one who was given as a reference to others by their teachers.
"Elie, you should sit beside Lucy she would help you improve your grades."
"Lily sing in chorus with Ms. Heartfilia, that would be better.
"Lucy will you coach me to improve my shooting" "ok in the court after class"
"Excuse me, you seems to be lost mind telling me where you want to go, I can guide you till there."
These were common happening in her life.
"So for tomorrow there are these 50 sums of Maths and 2000 words essay on French Revolution, this would be done till 8 then I can revise and sleep for the day." Lucy planned her schedule for the day but as soon as she entered her room she realised it was never going to be completed on time.
There he was her best friend Natsu Dragneel sitting crossed legged on her queen sized bed having a packet beside him.
"Heya Luce! guess what we are having a party at the guild for the newcomer and we are going together."
"Nah Natsu! Think I would have to pass, I have a lot of homework, also there is a test day after tomorrow. You should leave" she said and sighed keeping her bad near her table an walking towards her closet for a pair of change of clothes.
"Bummer"
After getting freshened up she expected he would have left but there he was going through her books with an intense gaze.
Natsu Dragneel a name which was very foreign to her in her early childhood, Lyla, her mother was a close friend of Grandeen , Natsu's mother they met a few times when they used to visit them but then the Heartfilia company expanded and they had to move and so did his family so they lost contacts and after her mothers death she was alone and upset, things didn't workout with her dad but suddenly one day he was there on her bed just like today. She screamed on the top of her lungs and explained later to her servants that there was a lizard in her room while hiding him in her closet and the only thing he said was-
"I just came to check onya. You feeling fine?" that day she cried her eyes out hugging him tightly while he assured her that everything would be fine. She later found out how when grandee came to know of the news he searched for her home in the city like crazy, going to the company, asking the employee and when finally he had found her home he was declined entry and he trespassed the boundary and found her room just to check on her.
That day she fell for him and after that whenever they met she fell for him harder and harder.
"Luce these sums are not that hard, it will take you an hour maximum to solve these and your essay we can work out on that too, we ARE leaving for the party at 6 so it gives us four hours and I think its enough"
"I don't think so, its 50 sums plus the essay I need to make a soft copy to send to mam it would take time and also I have exam."
"Please Lucy, I will help you, you have been studying for that test for 3 days now and you are a straight A student how much more revision do you need. 'We are going' so no more argument just start your work, time is so precious you realise."
"Aye sir!"
While she was doing the sums (Natsu said right, they were pretty easy except for the minority but that was to be expected) Natsu was reading her history book, highlighting some points and adding extra information from the internet. She had read the chapter and a lot was in her mind what to write too.
It took her one and half hour to complete the sums written neatly in her book. Now for the essay part.
"Here, you had already read the chapter so it makes things easy for us. I have marked the things that must be added in your essay for the 'Lucy touch' to it, you read the sequence you want it to be like and I would be typing cuz you know how better I am at it that you" He boasted and she stuck her tongue at him taking the book and processing the essay in her mind..
"The French revolution began in 5th May 1789 …."
There work was done around fifteen minutes to six.
"Yosh! It's all done."
"yup." She cheered along.
"Now go get ready" He said and passed her the packet that was kept beside him.
"what's this?" she opened the packet to find a black party wear. "Natsu whhyy? I have plenty of dresses already."
"But those are for business meeting and this is a party at the guild I am not allowing you to wear them."
"but…."
"No buts, either you change yourself or I will make you change" He gave her a wicked look and she blushed hard.
"Natsuuu" she complained with a pout but he started getting closure to her she rushed to her bathroom to change before he could tackle her for a tickling attack.
It was a pretty dress that complemented her figure well. Sleeveless with a golden belt at her waist, it fell three inch short of her knees and she looked sexy.
She made her hairs in a bun but it didn't look good next she tried a low ponytail not good either so she left it loose with a few locks falling on her and a golden clip to support her bangs.
She opened the door and came out slowly blushing too maybe because, she was wearing this kind of dress for the first time or it was the boy standing before her.
"Read-… she heard him inhale sharply, she looked up to see him blushing and scratching the back of his neck.
"you look beautiful" he said softly she thought he might have heard wrong "what?"
"Nothing, you are looking weird and are making us late."
"The guild is ten minutes away from my home, we are just 30 mins late."
"weren't you supposed to be punctual?"
She laughed and took his arm dragging him to the main gate.
"By the way who is the newbie?"
"Wendy Marvel, she is smart you know two years younger than us but still in our year."
"Wow that's Marvellous.." She laughed.
Natsu was in Fairytail High, and most of their students join some guilds that was supposed to build their teamwork and one day He took her with him and she hit it off with all his friends. Apparently the place their guild was situated was an empty house owned by the Dreyer Family and now belonged to Laxus Dreyer who was grandchild of their principle and was the leader of the guild now. All the guild parties that she had attended were wonderful moments of her life and she wished it would be so for this party too.
Their fingers were interwind and Lucy was humming a song.
"Hey Lucy!"
"Hmm"
"I lied. The party begins at 7" He said scratching his head when they were just near the entrance and it was around 20 minutes to 7 and knowing all them she knew they would be late.
"NATSUUU"
