"Hello sweetie, did you have a good day?"
"Honestly...no,"

"What happened?"

Lucy explained her situation with Natsu, then went upstairs to her room.


An Unexpected Couple

Chapter 4


"Finally, the weekend" she sighed "A whole weekend to shop for prom - oh prom, I guess I'll have to finish off the decor by myself," she sighed but continued to , she opened her laptop and looked online at prom dress ideas - color, style, ect... "Hmm," she sighed, Lucy closed the lid on her laptop, and climbed into bed, only to be awoken by levy calling her she moaned but answered it "Hi Levy..."
"Hi, me and Erza were wondering if you wanna come to town with us tomorrow to get stuff for prom?"
"Um, I dunno if I can because I'm working on the hall so -"
"You'll need to take a break soon, prom is on Friday, and you'll need to but a dress soon!"
"Well I'm not even going with anyone any more so...

"I know, hmph I'll meet you at twelve?"
"Yes! Okay bye"
"Bye" Lucy turned off her phone and fell asleep. As soon as Lucy woke up she got changed, got breakfast and left the house whilst saying "see you later mum,"
"Where you going?"
"School, to work on prom"
"Oh, right bye sweetie!"
"Bye!" Lucy said and closed the door behind her.

Today was one of the few days that Lucy wasn't awoken by her alarm, but she did, however, still have to get up and work on the prom decorations. After ten minutes of debating whether to get up, she got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast, "Mornin' mum!"

"Morning sweetie," Lucy grabbed an apple and her bag as she opened the door to leave her house, "Where you going?" Asked her mum,

"Oh, I'm going to school to work on prom,"
"It's Saturday,"

"I know, Bye!"

her mother sighed "Bye," Lucy closed the door behind her and walked to the school, on her travels she came across a familiar 'Pinkette', he was walking in the same direction but on the other side of the street. "Oh, hey Luigi!" He called out, since when was he so friendly?

"Hi...and my name is Lucy not Luigi!" she replied, as Natsu crossed the street

"Whatever, Luke-"
"Are you trying to annoy me?"

"Maybe..but I'd like us to be friends if we have to work on prom together, then it'd be less boring..."

"Yeah...Okay, I agree and I'm going over to the hall now,"

"Oh, I've got family business to attend to..." as he said this is face fell,

"By the look on your face I'm going to guess that it's personal..."

"Yeah, I guess but it's only for two hours, so it won't be long."
"Uh huh...Well, I'll see ya later, Natsu!"

"Bye, Loony!"

"MY NAME IS LUCY!" as they parted they both had one thought in their minds: 'What's this weird feeling? Is this what they call a crush?'

'No...I can't my dad wouldn't allow it...But he doesn't have too know...SHUT UP LUCY, YOU DO NOT LIKE NATSU IN THAT WAY!' that was Lucy only thought as she walked over to the school, it was surprising too see how many other students used the school at the weekend, although it was only the 'nerds' who came, they were studying for upcoming tests but they'd probably be gone by 11 O' clock. Lucy grabbed the key from the office, unlocked the doors and walked into the prom hall, it looked better than before but she still had to: fix the fountain, fix the disco ball, redo the fairy lights, paint the stage background, fix the DJ booth and fix all twenty tables...yeah...that's a lot..."Well I better get started..." Lucy said to herself as she walked over to start painting the midnight themed, after an hour of painting, she had finally finished, Lucy picked up a box of newly purchased fairy lights to pin around the top of the stage (where the curtains would be hung up) she set up a ladder and pinned them up. However there was one spot she couldn't quite reach "Just a little further..." She mumbled as she leaned over the ladder, "Wow, I didn't realize how high up I was..." she leaned a little bit further then THUD, Lucy had slipped and landed on the ground unconscious.

Time skip to one hour later

"Hello? Loony ? Luigi?...what's her name?" said Natsu as he shook Lucy's arm, trying to wake her

"For the hundredth time it's LUCY!" Levy replied slightly annoyed

"Wha-?" Lucy had awoken and sat up almost immediately

"She's awake!" above her, she saw Erza, Levy and...Natsu?

"Well, she's up and I'm gone, Bye!" Natsu called out as he stood up and began to walk away with his leather jacket draped over his right shoulder,

Erza - "Well...how about drinks?"

Levy - "Hasn't Lucy been through enough, let's get her home and we'll meet up?"

Lucy - "Sounds fine but I'll speak to you two on Skype, right?"

Erza - "Correct!" Erza helped Lucy up whilst Levy carried her bags,

Lucy - "You don't have to carry my bags!"

Levy - "Well I'm going to so-"

Lucy - "I'll be fine I can walk back by myself!"

Erza - "If that's what she wants then we must accept that...please accept my apology, Lucy,"

Lucy - "Um...It's fine, Erza, no need to be so formal..."

Erza - "Oops...my mistake, you sure you don't need help?"

Lucy - "I'm sure!"
Levy - "Well, isn't it just too bad that I'm coming with you!"

Lucy - "Ugh...I give up...you can come, but I don't know why you're so eager,"

Levy - "You'll find out soon enough..."

Lucy - "Oh great...that can' be good"

Levy - "Hmph...Erza, you can go, I need to talk to Lucy about..."

Erza - "Oh, yes I remember...I'll go then..."

Lucy - "What are you two talking-"

Erza - "You'll find out soon enough..." The trio left as Erza locked the doors and returned the key as they passed the front office, "Well, see you two later on Skype!" She called out as they walked opposite directions,

"Bye!" Levy and Lucy replied as they walked towards her house,

"So," Lucy began "What do you want to talk about?"

"Oh, well I just wanted to ask if you like-"

"Oh great...not again..."

"Excuse me? And I wanted to know if you liked Natsu?"
"WHAT? No, defiantly not!"
"You suuuuure?"

"I'm quite sure!" the duo continued to walk along the street to Lucy's house

"Hehe, If you say so..."

"And don't you dare even try to set me up with ANYONE!"
"Even Natsu?"

"Even Natsu. And please don't talk to Mira about this because..."
"I know, I know...besides she's got her had full with prom couples and she's trying to get...um...Laxus and Freed together..."

"Laxus is her boyfriend...Stop trying to hide it-"
"Did I say Laxus? I meant Lisanna..."
"Lisanna is dating Bickslow..."
"Oh uh right...-"

"tell me what your Hiding...You're not very good at lying y'know."

Levy sighed "I know, but I'm not hiding anything,"

"I know you are, but knowing you, I'll find out soon enough..."
"True..." After a few minutes of walking in a comfortable silence they reached Lucy's house

"See you tomorrow!"

"Will do! And don't you dare set me up!"

"I promise I won't!"

"Tch...Yeah...sure..."
"I won't!"

"Okay, okay, see ya!"

"Bye!" Lucy unlocked her door and walked inside her house to find her mother preparing dinner and her father reading a news paper,

"Hey mum, dad"
"Hello, dear," Jude replied,

"Hi sweetie, have you had any thoughts on your prom dress?" Layla asked

"Not really..."

"Okay, just wondering,"
"Uhuh...I'll be upstairs," Lucy walked upstairs and opened Skype to find she's been added to a new, unnamed group.

Lucy closed the lid on her laptop, let out a fustrated sigh and fell into a slumber, her alarm woke her the next morning at 9 am, she walked downstairs to grab breakfast: a slice of toast with jam on, her parents were just watching the news, it was a normal weekend but not for long.
