A story about a boy and a girl

Chapter 3: The second day

The next day at school they started with a homeroom lesson, which meant free time if you have Laxus as a teacher. All the students started talking and Lucy soon was invited to sit by the same group of girls as yesterday. They informed Lucy of the rumours going around school and the weird antics of their classmates. After their so called homeroom lesson they had Music. They got to work in groups too write a song, although it didn't take long for Natsu and Gray to get into a argument, the Music teacher, Lyra, had paired them, Lucy and Erza together in a Group. The argument didn't become a full blown fight because Erza gave the boys a deathly glare. Right in front of Lucy's eyes the two boys went from almost fighting to hugging each other and the only thing Natsu said was: 'Aye'.

Now Lucy and her classmates were sitting in their English class, the just had lunch but Natsu's stomach was still rumbling. The pink haired boy was laying on his table, arms crossed and his head on his arms. Mumbling all kind of stuff, but mainly about how hungry he was and what he would like too eat. Lucy thought he looked kind of cute and couldn't stop a smile creeping on her face. She just wanted to give him some of her food when their teacher came in. He carried a pile of paper and dumped them on the desk. Eido directly grabbed a chalk and started writing on the chalkboard.

"All right everyone, last night I controlled all of the test made by you guys. The test is made fairly well." He turned around and the chalkboard read "Lower then a 50 will have too follow extra peculiar lessons this Friday." Eido grabbed the test and started handing them out.

"Well done Mirajane, a 85. Didn't expect anything less from the class representative." Mirajane smiled at him and took her test. "Erza, 88. Good work. Laki a 75. Jet and Droy both a 60." And so he went on. Cana got a 55, Loke a 62, Levy got a 80, which resulted in loud cheering and clapping from Jet and Droy.

"Gray Fullbuster you got a 51, please try better I know you can do it." Gray took the test and mumbled something.

"Natsu Dragoneel…"

Besides Lucy Natsu had is hands clasped together and was almost praying. "Please let me have higher then that icy bastard. Please let me have higher then that icey bastard. Please."

"A fifty" Natsu immediately jumped up from his chair pointing his finger at Gray.

"What I got a lower grade then that bastard? That can't be true!"

"It is true, and if I were you I would be glad you have a fifty because I'm not so sure if you can do better. You're Lucky you don't have to follow extra lessons."

Most of the people started grinning or laughing. Natsu sputtered some incoherent words and sat down quietly.

Eido gave him the test and started turning out the rest of the test.

"Lucy, ah Lucy. Well done dear. You've a 98. For your first test it certainly is very well, I hope you keep this work up." He gave her a smile and turned to the rest of the class, wich had become awfully quiet. Nobody ever got a grade higher then Erza. "I hope some of you guys will learn something for the next test. Further work on some exercises. If you have any questions or problems with your test come to me" And with that Eido sat back in his chair and started answering the questions of the students.

"Lucy, your incredible!" Natsu yelled at Lucy, apparently he got over his bad mark.

"I will have to recognise you as my equal now, Lucy." Erza said, she nodded in agreement with her own statement.

"Lu-chan, how did you do that?" Levy asked, her face in suprisement.

"Well, I didn't do anything special or something."

"You didn't do something special? What are you a genius? Those exercises were super hard!"

"For a idiot flame brain like you, yeah they are hard." Gray came up to the group, joining in in their conversation.

"What did you say ice freak? You didn't got a much better grade then me if I remember correctly!"

On Gray's face came a dark scowl. "Wow! You actually remember something another miracle happend today." He started laughing.

"You…" Natsu went into fighting position and was ready to jump Gray any moment.

"Ma ma, boys calm down. I'm sure Lucy has a reasonal explanation for it, right?" Mirajane said trying to calm the boys down. After she said that everybody suddenly looked at Lucy. Lucy herself got a little nervous from the stares she was getting.

"W-well I don't think those exercises were particulary hard."

"Lu-chan, you don't think those were hard? Even I thought those exercises were hard, and English is one of my best subjects." Levy said, a shocked look on her face. She couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"I have harder tests and exercises for English." Everybody around her were shocked to say the least. They all stared at her in unbelievable.

"What kind of school are you from?" Natsu yelled. "Are you from a geniuses school?" Everybody started thinking, they indeed didn't know from which school she was. Lucy looked to Natsu and then to the table. Her bangs covering her face.

"Lu-chan from which school are you?"

Lucy flinched slightly at the question from Levy, she knew she would have to answer it soon. She looked up to Levy, everybody was looking at her in expectation. Lucy's face wasn't the smiling face any more, she still had a small smile on her lips but her eyes were distant and sadness dwelled in them. "J-just some school". She could hear the slight stammer and sadness in her own voice and the mumbles of disbelieve around her.

"Wich school exactly Lucy?"

Before she could answer the bell rung. She slammed her hands on the tables and stood up. "Toilet! I'm going to the toilet." She quickly walked out of the classroom leaving a group of astonished teenagers behind.

Lucy was walking through the corridors, she was looking for the toilets but was too lost in thought to notice her surroundings. 'Why didn't I just tell them from which school I am? I'm only acting weird right now. But my old school… I didn't even want to go there Papa made me. I always did everything that Papa wanted me to do. Papa…' At the thought of her father and her old life her eyes began to water. 'No, no! Lucy Heartfillia, get a hold of yourself! Or rather Lucy Heart get a hold of yourself. You aren't in your old life anymore.' When she looked around she saw that she was standing right in front of one of the sinks.
"All right! Just forget the past." And just when that had slipped out of her mouth, images and memories started to surface. Memories she had locked up in her mind. Memories of her father, make her life a live she didn't want, her so-called friends and her old school.
"C-calm down, don't think of it. You left it behind, dammit!" She slowly regained her composure and turned around to walk back to her class when she bumped into someone. She had opened the door and behind it was a girl, Lucy hadn't noticed the girl and bumped into her. Both girls fell down on the ground.

"I-Im so sorry!" The girl said. She had Long black-bluish hair and was probably a middle schooler. "I-I didn't mean to-"

"Don't worry about it, I bumped into you." Lucy stood up and held her hand out for the girl to grab. The girl grabbed her hand and they both dusted off there clothes.

"A-actually I meant hearing you talk to y-yourself." Lucy stared at her in shock. If she wouldn't watch out more her cover would be in danger

"W-well, don't worry about that either. But could you promise to keep it a secret?"

"I promise I keep what I heard a secret!" The girl gave her a big smile. "I'm Wendy by the way, I'm from the middle school branch. I haven't seen you before so I take you're the transfer student?"

"Yes, I'm Lucy from the High school branch. It's a pleasure too meet you."

"Same here." Wendy looked at Lucy like she was contemplating something. "Are you feeling all right, you look really sad."

"O what? It's nothing." She smiled at the girl. Wendy didn't seem really convinced. "I'm fine really."

"All right. I know this might sound weird, because we just met but you seem really nice and everything… anyway you can always tell me everything" Wendy gave Lucy a small smile, they girl looked somewhat flustered. Before Lucy could make a comment the second bell rung, signalling the start of the classes.

"I have to go now. It was nice meeting you Lucy." The girl made a turn and started running through the corridors to her classroom.

"It was nice meeting you too, I hope too see you again." Lucy yelled to her retreating back. The girl turned around and waved, but thanks to the sudden movement she fell over. Lucy made movement to help her when the girl called she was all right and started running away again. Lucy sighed and started walking to her classroom. 'I need to get my smile back, I can't let more people get suspicious.'

-~x~-

At the same time.

"Why did Lu-chan run away so suddenly?" Most students were getting the books and stuff for the next lesson except for a few. Those were the people that were around Lucy until she suddenly went to the toilet. Among these students were Levy, Mirajane, Erza, Natsu, Gray and Loke.

"She went to the toilet, didn't you hear her?" Natsu said. Everybody gave him a look of disbelief.

"Natsu, you really have to learn a lot more about a women's heart." Loke said.

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Anyway what could be wrong with Lucy?" Erza said, she had her hand under her head. "As soon as we started about her old school she acted weird."

"Maybe she comes from a different planet and can't speak about her old school because nobody may know that she is from a different planet." Natsu yelled, everybody looked at him. Levy and Gray even face palmed.

"You really have a flame brain, don't you?" Gray said.

Natsu wanted to make a remark on that comment but stopped when he saw Erza's look.

"Natsu could be right, ne?" Mirajane said. She had her head slightly tilted and her hand on her cheek.

"Mira-chan!" Levy said. She sighed loudly and said: "Let's drop this subject all ready. More importantly what should we do about it?"

"Nothing, I think it's the best if we wait until she tells her old school to us herself. Without us pushing her to do it." Erza said. Everybody agreed with her and the bell rang.

The teacher came in and the history lesson started. After 5 minutes Lucy still hadn't returned.

"Lucy still isn't back." Natsu whispered to no-one in particular a look of worry on his face.

"Maybe something happened to lu-chan." Levy stated slight panic in her voice. Everybody on the Fairy Tail school saw the other students as family, for some it was their only family. If something happened to the other the other would always support and help each other. And Lucy was already part of the family, at least Levy thought so about it.

"I will look for her." Erza wanted to put her hand up in the air when the door slammed open en Lucy stood in the opening. She looked completely normal.

"Who are you?" The teacher asked her.

"I'm Lucy the new transfer student. I'm sorry for being late I got a little lost."

"Well that can happen, I'm Scorpio your History teacher. Please take your seat." After Scorpio said that he resumed the lesson. Lucy meanwhile got seated.

"Lu-chan! I thought you had an accident!" Levy loudly whispered.

"I was worried about you, so don't leave, ok?" Natsu said. The girls looked at him in surprise and with a glint of glee in their eyes, the boys tried not to laugh. Natsu probably didn't notice the hidden romantic feeling behind his words for the dense boy he was. A slight blush crept upon Lucy's face.

"Don't worry, I won't leave you so soon. I just got lost in the corridors." Natsu besides her looked at her, looking if anything was strange about her appereance. But they couldn't spot anything, except happiness. 'They were worried about me' Lucy thought. For some reason it made her feel incredible happy.

"Guys at the window be quiet!" Scorpio yelled. They were all quiet and started listening to the teacher, he was explaining things about the Egyptian pyramids.

After History the school was out. Lucy and the rest stayed in the school cafeteria for about one hour before Lucy decided she had to go home. Because she lived alone she first had to do some shopping for dinner.

"Were do you live Lucy?" Mirajane asked her.

"Ah well, I live in a small apartment near the centre of town, Mirajane. The adress is Strawberry street 7." Lucy was already packing her stuff to walk away.

"Call me Mira-chan, darling."

"Can I come to your apartment sometime?" Natsu asked.

"Yeah, sure but that will have too wait because I still need to buy some furniture and decorate the I have to go now! Byee everyone!" She waved and walked away.

-~x~-

In the supermarket Lucy was looking at some stuff she could eat for dinner, she decided to use her last money for food for the rest of the week so she would not have to go by the supermarket a lot the next week. After she bought food she went back to her apartment, luckily it wasn't far from the centre of town. She looked at some window, but couldn't afford anything so tried to ignore all the fancy stuff. While she was walking a lot of man openly stared at her or even whistled. She ignored it mostly but she felt quite happy about it, it meant she was nice too look at.

Lucy's apartment was in Strawberry street, in front of her apartment was a river with a bridge. Right now she was walking across the lever next to the river. Some men in a boat yelled at her to be careful, she answered and walked up to her apartment door. She took the staircase to the second Floor and went to her door, number 7.

"Pff… I'm glad to finally sit down." She turned her key around and opened the door. Only to stand shocked in the door opening. Her apartment was one big chaos.

"Welcome home Lucy!"

Lucy regained her composure and did the only think she could think of, yell. "What are you doing in my apartment?"

Well, who didn't see that coming? I don't really like this chap maybe I will change it later.
