*Special Thanks for the Reviews, favorites, and follows. It really means a lot to me. It makes me feel needed and I love that people want to read what I have written! THANK YOU! T^T* Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail =(

Summary: Lucy Heartiflia, young and beautiful, but very shy and kind. Everyone including her friends believes she is one of the nicest girls they ever met, so why do they also feel like there is something odd about her? She blames it on her clumsiness, but is that really why she comes to school every day with new or worse cuts and bruises than before? Can this dense pink haired boy be able to save her from the secret she hides?*Rated T for mild language and action* *all my teen characters are 16, but Wendy is 13* *Oh and some people asked me this and yes it's AU and kinda OOC.*

Well here goes chapter seven! Enjoy!

Chapter 7

(Normal P.O.V)

Once the warning was in the air about everybody left, except 8 guys including the one who was holding her. "Why should we! You don't own her! We're her friends too and when she tells us to leave her alone we will!" one of them said holding Lucy's hand while the others stood their ground and nodded in agreement. "What are you talking about she is unconscious!" Juvia commented in rage. They all looked down to see that the statement was true, but their surprised expressions quickly turned into smirks. Once seeing all the boys' faces the girls shivered in remembrance. "Oh, then I guess we don't have to move then" the same one said again and was bold enough to kiss the hand he was holding. You could tell people could feel something was about to go down cause the group of students in the halls were now in their class rooms. Some looking through the little window in the doors. "Hey, I know you guys!" Mira began with her face now showing disgust "You're the creeps in that Fairy Tail Girls fan-club who stalked us in the mall last month when we went into Victoria Secret!" Mira finished.

This pushed the guys of the F.T. (Fairy Tail abbreviation) over the edge especially seeing ALL the girls run behind Erza who was shacking a little in her knees and her face showing disgust like Mira. (Kind of like how she acts around the Blue Pegasus leader Ichiya) "Girls do us a favor, take Lucy to the clinic and tell the teacher we went to throw out some trash" Jellal said in a menacing voice. The guys of F.T. start to walk forward and each grabbed a boy and dragged him through the halls and out the front door with them, and of course Natsu was the one dragging the boy who was holding Lucy. Erza lifted Lucy bridal style and went to the nurse with the other girls following. "Cost is clear!" Bisca yelled allowing the students to now roam the halls like usual. The guys of Fairy Tail . . . . . lets say they're having fun.

45 mins. Later (Lucy P.O.V)

I squint my eyes at the sunlight in the room. As I look around I see 8 boys on a bed unconscious who looked all beaten up and swollen. I shrugged it off and got up. I guess I'm in the nurse's office but she's not here so I should just go to class. I guess I did faint. As I walk through the halls I hear a rumour about some big fight but knowing my school they are all most likely lies.

Once I walk into my class room everyone went silent and I could see Natsu, Gray, Jellal, Juvia, Erza, Cana, and Levy now looking at me with a smile, well for Natsu a toothy grin. "Sorry for being tardy. I was in the clinic." I explained. "It's fine I already know the situation. Please sit in your seat. Oh and welcome back" He said before continuing the lesson. I went to my seat in the back and starting writing class notes. The rest of the day went smoothly and it was time for school to end.

After saying bye to everyone me and Levy started to walk home. "So how are you feeling?" she asked. "Oh I'm fine and back to normal!" I say as she giggles. "I-is there any chance I could . . . maybe . . . . go to your house today?" she asked. That one question made my face turn from happy to horror. "No!" I yelled. She looked me with sad eyes that were about to let tears go. "I mean . . . it's not a good time, maybe another time. K?" I said trying to fix the situation. She stared at me until a small smile again came upon her face. "Okay, you did just get out the hospital" she said. A few minutes passed till we saw our houses. As she walked to hers I walked to mine. Once I was in the house I was welcomed back by a punch in the face from my father. Before I could fall to the floor he lifted me up by my hair and brought me closer to his face that showed rage. "You weak insolent girl! Do know how much trouble you had me go through just because you couldn't handle a little discipline!" He spat before slamming me down to the ground. My head was feeling so much pain, but I promised myself I wouldn't cry. I promised mom I wouldn't show pain to this bastard.

He started to kick my stomach repeatedly wearing his boots while he blew out the smoke from his cigarette. From each kick came out another insult to call me. Such as worthless, bitch, ugly, fat ass, good for nothing, and the worse yet . . . . a murderer. But I can't say any of it was a lie right? That is why I deserve all of this, isn't it? I killed you mom, it was my entire fault. If I could go back I would've tried to pull you out the way and let me get hit. Everything would've of been better if I had died that dreadful day.

As he gives one more painful kick to my stomach I let out a ear piercing scream. I can tell it angered him because before I knew it he started to strangle me. "Shut the f** up!" he whispered venomously in my ear as I was starting to lose the oxygen I had left. He let me go and went to the kitchen. I was now on my hands and knees trying to get as much air as possible before I faint from lack of oxygen. That when he comes back with a rag and stuffs it in my mouth. He then grabs my left arm and puts the bottom of the cigarette onto the skin of my shoulder leaving a small round burn mark. As much as I screamed the cloth in my mouth kept the sound silent. He finally lets me go and tells me to go make dinner.

While I cooked dinner alone in the kitchen I let the tears I was holding fall. I also started to sing. (The song is called 'Missing'more info at the bottom)

"Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And barely conscious you'll say to no one
Isn't something missing?
You won't cry for my absence, I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

Even though I'm the sacrifice

You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?rom: e/evanescence/missing_ ]
Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
I know what you do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

Even though I'm the sacrifice

You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

And if I bleed

I'll bleed
Knowing you don't care
And if I sleep just to dream of you
And wake without you there
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something

You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

Once I stopped singing the food was already done so I put it on the table for him and I limped to my room. It wasn't special, the only things that lay in my room was a mattress on the carpet floor with a plain white blanket on it (no pillows), clothes, shoes, and toiletries. My room is plain white, but in some places you could see blood I couldn't get off from when I was in my room while bleeding from deep cuts, beatings, and bruises. But on my wall is a small picture of my mother and me.

After I showered I patched up my wounds and took some pain killers. I kneeled on my knees and prayed, I prayed for Lord Jesus to give me a miracle. A savior in my pain. A . . . . .knight in shining armor to rescue you me. I then went to my bed to fall asleep and wait for another day, another day of this? I guess I'll just have to remain . . . . remain waiting . . . . .for now.

Hope you liked it and I know that whole school scene from the last chapter to this one wasn't that good and was getting off the subject of the story. I did that for a reason, it was kinda supposed to be humorous. I wanted to give a short brake from all the sadness, but now since that short brake is over as you can see from her coming home it's time to get back to the serious stuff! (#*-*#)

The song is "Missing" from Evanescene. I do not own the band or song. You can buy/listen to it on i-tunes. *cough*or on youtube*cough*

PLEASE R&R and I'll see you next time =D
