Hi guys! I hope you like this chapter!
Lucy ran home crying. "I knew this was a bad idea!" Lucy shouted as she ran to her room and slammed the door shut, she fell to her knees and cried. She heard Sting, Rogue, and Gray come in. "Luce are you here?" Natsu yells cause he is the last one to the house. "I know where she is" Sting said as he walked up stairs and gently opened her door.
"Lulu are you ok?" She shakes her head and cries "People have been mean and I haven't been there a full day!" Sting sadly sighs "I'm sorry Lulu but its only the first day" Lucy looks up "How do you know its not gonna change? People may be like that to me for the rest of high school!" Lucy cried and Gray came up.
He was shocked to see her so...broken. He walked over sat with her and hugged him "Lucy its ok"He said while hugging her close and rubbing circles on her back. She put her head on his shoulder and wiped her tears. She looked own with her bangs covering her eyes. "I don't want to go back to school" Gray looked sad "You have to Lucy I will be with you all day" He said trying to convince her.
"I'm gonna take a walk" Lucy grabbed her bag and walked out her room and down the stairs to where everyone else is. Laxus sees her first "Lulu!" He runs over and tries to hug her and she shoves away, Laxus was shocked as well as everyone else. "What's wrong you have never done that" Laxus looked hurt and Lucy just simply walked out.
Lucy walked throughout town. She saw some shops bought somethings and walked home. When she got back everyone was in the living room Natsu jumped up when he saw her "Luce your back!" When he came close her eyes widen and she ran upstairs and locked herself in her room. "Lucy" Gray gently asked through her door. "Go away!" She cried. "Lucy please open the door we wont hurt you. You can trust us" Lucy slowly walked and slowly opened the door.
Lucy opened the door and saw their sweet and kind smiles. "See Lucy we are here for you" Lucy nodded. "Lulu want to go see a movie?" Laxus asked and he saw Lucy flinch "Its ok we will be with you" Natsu smiled a gentle smile. Lucy nodded "Ill change first" They walked downstairs and let Lucy change. Lucy put on a black skater skirt, a green tank top, with black converse, she also grabbed a jean jacket an a black shoulder bag.
She walked downstairs and they walked to Stings car. Laxus and Natsu sat upfront and Sting sat on the left, Lucy in the middle and Gray on the right. Lucy was fidgeting with her hands the whole ride. When they get there Lucy hides behind Gray. Gray looks over at Sting and he says "It makes her feel comfortable" Gray nodded and let Lucy closely follow him.
"Lucy what movie do you want to watch?" Laxus asks and Lucy shakes her head. So Laxus picks out a random movie and they watch it. It was actually a good movie, they all enjoyed it and Lucy even laughed! When they were done with the movie they walked around and a certain key caught her eye. She pocked Gray and pointed at the shop and walked towards the store. Gray sent a confused look at Sting. He shrugged "Just let her go" Gray nodded and watched Lucy.
Lucy walked over to a key that had the symbol of Leo on the top of the key. She picked it up and walked over to the register "How much is the key? " She asked very sweetly and the clerk smiled "Its 50 jewel" Lucy smiled "Ill take it!" The clerk rung it up and bagged it up for Lucy "Thank you ma'am!" Lucy said while walking out "No problem anytime!" Lucy walked out happy and that made all the boys shocked. "What did you buy Luce?" Lucy just shrugged. The group walked to the car and sat in the same seats as before.
Lucy couldn't wait to get home, she had a collection of celestial keys. They helped her through her hardest times. When ever she was sad or upset she would take out her special box and look at the keys. They belonged to her mother. So when ever she got a new one she would label it she would put : Time Date and Place and then she would put it in her box and then put the box away.
When they got to her house, she ran to her room and pulled the box down. She had 10 out 12 keys. She wasted no time in labeling the key and putting it in the box and putting the box in its secret hiding place. When she was done she walked downstairs and made popcorn. She walked into the living room and the guys are on the ground in a circle. Gray notices Lucy and turns around "Hey Lucy come join us!" He patted the spot next to him and what she saw surprised her they were ... putting together a puzzle.
Sure Lucy loved puzzles, she did them all the time. She was just shocked that instead of playing video games or something like that they were building a puzzle. Lucy said her first words all night to them "Why are you building a puzzle?" They shrugged "Just wanted to" Sting said while trying to match a piece with the one in his hand.
Lucy got up and started to walk away "Where are you going Lulu?" "My room to watch T.V." Laxus nodded and Lucy walked up her stairs and screamed when she saw a little kitten on her bed. The group ran upstairs to find Lucy shaking "What's wrong?" Gray asked and Lucy pointed to her room and Gray grabbed a broom and opened the door. "Aww its just a cat" Gray walked with a cat in his arms. "Oh" Lucy blushed to show her embarrassment. The cat gray was holding was gray with a white belly and white paws as well as the top of her tail.
Suddenly, the cat started flying and Natsu got excited "She is just like happy!" Grays eyes widen "Oh yea" Lucy grabbed the kitten and she started purring "I'm gonna name you snow!" Lucy giggled while walking into her room and changed into Pj's. Lucy put on black sweatpants with a white tank top she also put on pink slippers and walked down stairs with snow. Lucy was hugging snow as she purred.
"Natsu how did you get happy to talk?" Natsu thought for a second "I don't know he just did" Natsu shrugged. Lucy pouted and then they heard a sweet and soft voice "What's wrong?" Lucy sighed "My exceed wo-" Lucy's eyes wide widen and she hugs her "You can talk!" She yells and jumped up and down. "Come on snow!" Lucy runs upstairs and into her room.
The boys smile "That's the happiest I've seen her in years" Sting smiled and Laxus nodded. "I hope high school was the right choice for her"
