Gray stood in line behind a small petite girl with straight blond hair and a frown etched in her face. She shook her head and handed the lunch lady a five dollar bill. The lunch lady smiled and gave the girl a knowing look. "It will get better you just watch" she shook her head muttering a quiet maybe and moving onward. He frowned as he slipped the lunch lady his money and went to grab the food he ordered. He glanced around the cafeteria and saw Juvia motion for him to come and sit with her. Half the guys turned to give him a nasty look a couple of them being his so called friends. He sighed and made his way to the table. He passed by a nearly empty table except for one guy that was looking at the food on his plate as if it was a miracle. He shook the off the feeling of sadness and took his place beside Juvia. He grabbed a fry and stuck it in his mouth trying desperately to ignore Juvia who was going on and on about the party this Sunday.
"So you know how I mentioned the dress I bought well I found the cutest shoes to match."
Gray shot her a look as he resisted the urge to bang his head against a wall. Had she nothing better to say. He groaned as she continued, it was true she had nothing better to say.
"Speaking of clothes..." said Juvia talking to one of her best friends
"Which you do a lot of" said Gray under his breath
"Excuse me" she replied a look of shock on her face. Gray rolled his eyes as he knew Juvia had pretended not to hear what he was saying. God knows he said it loud enough. It wasn't like he was lying either it was all she could talk about.
"Nothing" he replied realising it was the safest answer.
"As I was saying we need to match." she continued acting like nothing happened.
The group delved into the clothing issue as gray stared around the room. He looked table to table for what seemed like an eternity when Juvia interrupted his thoughts. The blonde girl that was in front of him in line had passed by their table a stack of books in her hands. One guy stuck his foot out trying to trip her as she passed by but she just side stepped and shot him a look. Gray chuckled and she shook her head continuing to head out of the cafeteria. He left the table and brushed past her on his way out
"Sorry about that."
She looked up startled and looked back down "A leopard can't change its spots."
He stopped in his tracks what had she meant by that. Did she mean a popular trying to be nice, him pretending to be one of them or had she meant his friends. He shook his head deciding not to think about it. He groaned and headed to third period wondering what possible torture health could inflict upon him today. He calmly made his way towards his class only pausing to say goodbye to Juvia. He paused slightly as he watched one of his best friends turn and flirt with Juvia, he rolled his eyes. Some friends he thought as he made his way to the health class. He sighed opening the door, noticing that Mr. Matthews was already sitting at his desk focused on the lesson plan in front of him. He glanced around the room and saw only what he was expecting to see, the room was empty except for one blonde girl who was hunched over as she appeared to be reading a story. He squinted his eyes, in an attempt to see the title. The Hunger Games, he chuckled suddenly thinking of how the people in the book were probably trying to eat the fastest. The girl looked up from her book, and their jaws simultaneously dropped. No it wasn't those petty thing you read in books…love at first sight, the soul mate principle, call it what you will that wasn't it.
"You!" they both screamed in union much to the teacher's surprise. The teacher smiled and laughed it off.
"You're in one of my classes." mused Gray staring at the petite blond, now that he thought about it she did seem familiar but he couldn't place his finger on it.
"For your information I'm in three of your classes Mr. Fullbuster." the blonde replied coldly to Gray. He smiled suddenly realising who she was.
"Oh yeah you're the Blondie that sits in front of every single class and answers every single question.
He watched her blush knowing that he hit it right on the dot.
"I have a name you know"
Gray laughed "Which is?"
"Lucy," she replied opening her book and pretending that he had never walked into the room. He shook his head and took his seat at the back of the class. He looked up to see the teacher smirking and this time Gray knew that health would be the death of him.
I hope you like it, If you don't that's okay.
