Chapter 3:
Day one
Today was going to be Lucy's first actual day at Fairy Tail Academy. Once she and Loki ate breakfast they walked to school together.
"I'm a little nervous Loki," said Lucy
"Don't worry, you made some new friends to help you out. Everything is going to be alright."
They walked into the school building where they parted to go to class. There was still ten minutes left till the bell rang, so Lucy went to her first class to introduce herself to the teacher, the only problem was that her first period teacher . . . was Ms. Aquarius. She remembered Natsu telling her that Aquarius was a mean teacher, but as long as you can pass her class you'll be good. Lucy was standing in the doorway when Aquarius saw her.
"Who are you?" she asked
"I'm a new student here. My name is Lucy Heartfilia. I'll be in your class starting today," she said nervously.
It was strange. When she saw Aquarius, she didn't look like what Natsu described her as.
"Alright then, but I should warn you, my class isn't easy to pass"
Now that sounded like what Natsu described.
The bell just rang, and Lucy went to go change into her swimsuit. After a few minutes, a whole lot of people showed up. Aquarius made them sit down and called Lucy to the front.
"Class! This is a new student named Lucy. If she proves to be a better swimmer than all of you today, you'll all be getting ten laps with the piranhas"
Now she fits Natsu's description perfectly.
To start off, the class was given five laps going from one end of the pool to the other. Lucy and a few others went first. When Aquarius blew her whistle they all jumped in and started. Lucy managed to keep up and eventually got a head of some of the swimmers. She finished her set coming in third place. In first came one of Aquarius' favorite student and best swimmer, Juvia Loxar.
"Juvia, excellent job as usual. Lucy, not bad. How long have you been swimming?"
"I learned from my mother ever since I was little"
Class ended and Lucy survived.
The rest of her classes were easy. She saw Natsu, Gray and some of her other friends in her classes. Now it was time for her final class, English. She got inside and didn't see her teacher, but she saw Natsu and Gray arguing over something. Then the bell rang:
"QUIET DOWN, SIT IN YOUR SEATS AND GET READY TO LEARN," said a loud voice that made everyone dash to there seats. This surprised Lucy, and made her a little shaky. Then came the English teacher.
"Oh I see we have a new student," said the teacher all-calm like.
"H-h-hi I-I'm Lucy Heartfilia," she said stuttering almost every word she said.
"Wonderful. I am Erza Scarlet, but for you and the students it's Ms. Scarlet. Umm let's see . . . ahh yes you can sit in between Natsu and Gray over there" she said pointing to an empty seat by the two boys, who where acting like they were ready to learn.
During class, she noticed that no one misbehaved in front of Ms. Scarlet. Her class was kind of interesting. After a few minutes of working the bell rang. Then Natsu, along with Gray, bolted out of the classroom dragging Lucy along with them. They three of them stood by the school gate waiting for Loki.
"Hey Lucy!" he called out "so how was your first day?"
"Great"
After chatting for a bit Lucy and Loki walked home together, but were joined by Natsu after a while.
"Hey Lucy can I ask you something?" asked the pink haired teen
"Uhh sure" said Lucy staring at her older brother who nodded.
"Don't worry I'll see you back at the house," said Loki, knowing he could trust the both of them, and walked off.
Natsu walked around with Lucy until they found a bench they could sit.
"So Lucy?" said Natsu while playing with his thumbs.
"Yeah Natsu?" Answered the blonde.
"I know it's only been two days but I was wondering . . ." He started to blush. "If you want to . . . maybe you and I . . . could umm . . . go out sometimes?" he said nervously
Lucy was surprised. In the time she had known the hothead, she would of never guess that Natsu would be the type of guy to blush.
"Yes" she answered hugging Natsu.
