Lucy's P.O.V
I wokeup early in the morning to prepare myself; physically and mentally. I've always wanted to move on, and now… the chance is right in front of me, and I chose to grab it and if that mean I have to change, I will!
I took a bath and wore my uniform properly. I tied my hair with pigtails and look at myself at my mirror. I inhaled then exhaled.
"I'm still nervous though…. to meet Natsu… I wonder what I should say. "I sigh but I didn't notice that someone entered my room.
"Face him properly. Don't run away, just be you." I heard someone said. I look at the door viewing Jellal in his Uniform leaning on the wall; my heart almost jumps in shock.
"HEY! This is MY room! At least KNOCK!" I shouted while throwing him a pillow which he blocked using his right arm.
"Now, now, your fiancé took all the trouble to pick you up and this is what your gonna show me?" he smirked.
"hmph!" I said. "Hey… but still… I don't know what will be their reaction when they know about this…. Especially Erza and Gray…" I said to him, he was silent for a long time but after 5 minutes he speaks up
"that maybe so… but remember… that were doing this to forget them… were doing this to move on…" I was mesmerized by him for a second while thinking,
'I never really knew Jellal.. We don't know each other… yet why do I feel that were similar…? Why do I feel comfortable with him, who is a stranger to me…? Why am I mesmerized by his beauty…?'
'w-what the heck am I thinking?!' I said to myself while shaking my head.
"Mm… but, aren't we so desperate? Yesterday was the first day you have talked to me, to be exact, were strangers; we don't even know each other and yet… it's like were so close… I don't mean it in a bad way though; I do feel comfortable when I'm with you… maybe it's because were in the same situation?" I said.
I saw him smile a little and said, "well, maybe it really is because were in the same situation but, have it ever occurred to you that maybe, just maybe… this is what they call FATE?" he then smirked.
I blush a little and said, "W-what...don't tell me you believe in fate."
"Hmm… maybe … I don't know, but I do know that there is a reason for us to meet in a same situation, maybe… were meant for each other," he winked and I blush really red. "Or something like that." He laughs.
"S-stop sprouting nonsense! M-meant for each other you say we don't even know each other clearly!" I said while blushing.
After what I said I looked at Jellal who stayed silent while smirking, I ignored him and was about to walk out the room when he grabbed my left arm which made me look into his eyes. When I was looking into his eyes I realize that he has the same color of my eyes: brown. It's the first time that I made a serious contact with him.
"Then, let's get to know each other." He suddenly said in a sexy tone voice, while I suddenly notice our position were different from earlier. I notice that both of our bodies were only inches away and his hand is supporting my back…. not to mention… our face is so close!
'Is it just me… or, when I'm with Jellal… I think I could really move on…. But… do I really want to forget my feelings for Gray…? The feelings that I treasure so much…? Yet… I hate so much…? What… do I really want..?' I said to my mind
'I'm getting frustrated….'
I pushed him away and said, "y-you're right… we need to get to know each other first…but how…?" I asked him trying to keep my cool.
"That's simple, but we better get going. We're going to be late. I'll tell you later, 'kay?" he winked
'I'm getting frustrated…! I'm getting frustrated right now! I why do I have this kind of thoughts?! It's like I'm going in circles! Why am I getting frustrated for?! I decided to move on! Yet…. Why…?'
With a painful expression I glance at Jellal's back, but that cause me more pain…. Can he really help me…? How can I be sure that I won't remember Erza when I'm with him…? I can't move on if it's like that…. I'm sure that if I see Erza… I would just remember Gray….
'hahaha… its seems that these people are in a cycle…Jella, Erza….. Gray…. is this the right thing to do…? Can I really move on with his help…?' my face still have a pained expression,
' I want to cry… I wanted to cry but…. I need to change… I'm no longer the weak Lucy… I want to be strong… I can't cry… not right now…. I… can't…' a single tear drop from my eye. "Not right now…" I whispered as I wipe my eyes with my sleeves.
"Oi, Lucy! We're going to be late!" I heard Jellal shouted from downstairs.
I quickly run downstairs and when I was about to reach him I tripped
"ah!" I shouted as I fall.
Jellal quickly pulled me into a hug to protect me from falling but it cause both of us to fall.
"U-um…" I said.
"What..?" he asks.
"t-this position… is quite disturbing…." I blush.
Jellal was on top of me and our faces are only 3 inch apart.
"Oh…" he suddenly smirk which made me sweat drop.
He neared his face to mine; now our lips are only one inch apart! One wrong move and….
"I pushed him away and said, "w-w-w-w-were going to be late!" I was blushing brightly. His face… his
really handsome…. The only problem is his personality!
I get up and shake off the dirt in my skirt and run outside, leaving him behind; stunned though he's still smirking.
~~Time skip~~

we finally arrived in our school. Jellal open the door of the car for me and handed me his arm; Which I take.
Many people are looking at us, and most of them are Jellal's fan girls; they're giving me an evil look, which cause me to feel nervous.
"J-Jellal… your fan girls are scary…." I said
"well…. Look… Elfman's fac is MUCH scarier…" Jellal noted.
I look to Jellal in shock.
'Elfman… saw us….? What am I gonna do….? I'm not prepared yet….' I said, my eye is full of worry and Ithink Jellal saw thru me. He patted me on my head and said,
"don't worry!" he then smiled.
Then I suddenly felt someone grab me by my shoulders, pulling me into a hug.
"Bastard why are you whit Lucy?!" As soon as I heard Natsu's voice my eyes widened.
"Na..tsu…?" I said in shock. Word didn't come out from my mouth… I'm…. nervous…
"Why? Well is it ad to go to school with MY FIANCE…?" He mockingly said to Natsu.
I saw Natsu's eyes full with range
"Bastard…. I won't let you have Lucy!" he shouted.
"heh. I already have her, aside from that..." Jellal grab my left arm and pulled me away from Natsu to his side
"I will not permit you to touch my Lucy." He said. He left Natsu dumbfounded, and I was blushing really hard.
As we continue to walk inside the school, I can't bear to lift up my head. Many girls are eying on me and giving me cold glares, and also…. My hand…. He's still holding my hand!
"Lift up your head Lucy… don't mind them, I'm here with you..." he denoted.
I did what he just said and lift my head
"mm…" I nodded and continued, "but…. J-Jellal… your hand…." I said while blushing.
"Ah? Ahhahahah !" he laugh." doing this is okay right? Or…. Do you want me to kiss you firs?" he said with a sexy tone.
"W-w-what?!" I shouted then stop for a moment. "d-doing this… is okay with me…." I said as I look down.
'Bear in mind Lucy! You're doing this to move on! And also, to be strong! He's just teasing you!'
When I look up to see his reaction… I was shocked from what I saw…
'When did… Jellal knows… how to blush…?'
I continue to stare at him in amazement.
"W-wait! Don't look here! Look over there! Over there!" he said as he kept pushing me away.
"ahhahahahha! Jelal! Even a guy like you know how to blush!" I laugh.
I didn't notice that there's a certain raven haired man a scarlet haired girl looking toward us with a confused eyes.

Jellal's P.O.V

haahha! It's been so long since I laugh like this. I only laugh like this when I'm with Erza back then. I can only show her this smile… but now… I wonder how I can easily laugh with her…? I even blushed….; which is a very rare thing for me to do….
"hahahahaha! Jellal! even a guy like you know how to blush!" Lucy laugh like there's no tomorrow as I hid the blush on my face; Though I admit that I laugh to.
"Hey! What do you mean even a guy like me? I'm also a person you know" I laugh.
"heee~~ never thought that you're a person though. You look more like an animal, who can eat anyone in just a second, and I'm the tamer of that fearsome animal." She joked.
"Hmm… then be careful. You're not a full fledge tamer yet. Maybe a day will come that I will eat you up. You better be ready." I winked as I kiss her hand.
I saw her blushed as red as a tomato.
'heh, looks like she forgotten that I'm holding her hand huh…'
I smiled at the blushing Lucy and I then turn around. My eyes widened for what I have saw.
"Erza…" I whispered but Lucy heard that and also turned around.
I quickly let go of Lucy's hand, then looked at her reaction but it she seems she's not shock about that.
"Gray…." she whispered. She has a painful expression while looking at the two couple.
"Lucy, why are you with him?" Gray asked her. I saw Lucy's Shoulder tremble and is about to cry.
'Not good… she won't last… She's about to cry….'
"a…. I…. I…." she said with a trembling voice. I check up on her again and saw that this time, it's not just her shoulders who is trembling but also her whole body.
I hold Lucy shoulder and whispered to her,
"stay calm… I'm here…. Don't be frightened… I'll…. Protect you…" I and Lucy's eyes widened in shock
'why the heck did I say that?! But she really looks so helpless that made me want to protect her…. We really are in the same situation…'
"Lucy, answer me." Gray said with a serious tone.
"Hey, whether Lucy is with me or not, it does not concern you, Gray." I said as I look at him seriously.
"What did you say?! I'm Lucy's friend and Erza's Boyfriend so I have something to do with this!" he shouted. I saw Lucy being quite and not talking at all.
"To ask something like that…. are you not thinking? You're scaring her Gray. In fact, YOU'RE JUST HER FRIEND and nothing more. You don't have the right to meddle in her life." I said calmly. I saw Grays face full of range and was about to say something but Erza stopped him and face me.
"And how about you, Aren't you just a nobody in Lucy's life?" she asks sarcastically.
I smirked at her and said, "a nobody? What do you mean by that? I'm Lucy's Fi-"I didn't finish what I'm about to say because someone shouted.
"He's my Fiancé!" I saw Lucy's face full of confidence.
I smirked again and said, "Just as she said." I grab her hand and walked away but Lucy stopped for a moment to say good bye to the mesmerized Gray and Erza.
" we need to go know, Gray…. Erza… sayonara…" she whispered the last part.
-Time skip_

where about 15 meters apart from them already but I didn't hear a word from Lucy.
"oi, Lucy. Are you o….kay….?" I asked as I sweat drop.
Lucy's face is so pale that it's almost white. It seems like her soul wants to leave her body.
"Sigh…..I almost die back there…" she said as she landed on her knees.
I chuckle a little and look at her and reach my hand towards her.
She put her hand to mine and tried to stand up. I saw her look at me and smiled; though I was shock of the fact that she's crying.
"L-Lucy…." I whisper her name.
'Maybe it's because of what happened earlier… it hurts to say that you have a fiancé to someone you love….. '
"I'm sorry… if you want to… let's stop our plan… I made you do something against yourself. I'm so sorry…" I said as I lean down to her and then embrace her.
"w-what are you talking about….? Stop you say…? We've already made it this far yet you'll back away…? Are you crazy…?" I heard her giggled but there are still tears in her eyes. "And also… looks like your misunderstanding something... I'm not crying because of what I did, it's just… I was so nervous… that's all." She embraced me back, "I'm doing my best here so don't back down on me!" she then continued.
"…." I was shocked because of what Lucy said.
'as I thought… She's really interesting….'
I smiled. Why do I feel like when I'm with Lucy.. I can forget Erza… I can also show my real self to Lucy so easily…. I can never do that to other people aside from Erza… guess Lucy can open ones heart easily huh…
"Lucy… thank you…" I whispered to her ears.
"E-eh…? What do you mean by "Thank you" ?" she asked as she loosen her hug.
"Thank you for doing you best… and also…. For getting along with me…" I said,
"What do you mean by that…?" she asked again making a confused face.
"I mean... Look I'm he man who hurt Erza… your friend… it must be hard for you to be stuck with a guy like me…" I said.
'Why am I being so negative?'
"And you're also the guy who's in the same position as mine… Jellal… I know you love Erza… but just as you told me… your parents are against it… you're not at fault… plus, even if you like to tease me… I know you a kind person… how can I hate a guy like that…? You… also care for me… right…?" she smiled sweetly as she brushed her fishers thru my hair.
"a-ahh, yeah.." I cannot say a single word while I'm blushing like crazy.
"hehe! As I thought, there's a big possibility that i might fall for you." she giggled, but what she said made me blush more.
'I'm so glad that she's busy patting my hair…'
"O-oi… a-are you confessing to me…?" I said as I avert my gazed.
I look at her and saw that she3 blushed.
"y-you're wrong! I didn't mean it that way! Ahhhhh~ mou~!" she shouted as she panic.
I laugh at her which cause her to look at me and smile.
"hahaha "we laugh in unison

Natsu's P.O.V

as I thought…. I shouldn't have confessed these feelings for her….. If I didn't maybe right now everything is normal… it's…. My entire fault…

I rest my head on my table and sigh.
I hate myself…" I whispered.
"why?" a certain white haired girl asked.
"Mira…? You cut your hair….?" I uninterestedly said.
"ermm… sorry… but I'm Lissana…" Lissana corrected. "Are you okay…? It seems you're not yourself today…" she worriedly asked.
"hnn..? Ah… yeah… it's just that I'm not feeling well…" I said to her while still slouching.
"And what is that sickness that made you hate yourself?" she sarcastically asked me.
"…" I was silent for a moment but I still spoke up, "it has nothing to do with you." I said with a serious tone that I saw Lissana's eyes widened.
I suddenly realize what I just did.
'Why the heck am I pouring my anger to Lissana….?'
"Sorry… I didn't mean that." I said as I face her.
"a-ah… y-yeah…. i-I'm the one who meddled to your problem… s-so…" she forced a smile but I can see that she's pretty hurt but, all I can do is watch her.
"W-well then… I'm going back to my seat… b-bye…." She, again, forced a smile.
'Sigh… why do I feel like I keep hurting people…?'
"NATSU!" I heard a very load footsteps coming towards me.
"Natsu do you know what's the meaning of this?!" Gray slam his hand on my table.
"what the?!~ the freaking shit are you talking about?!" I shouted.
"I'm talking about Lucy!" he shouted back.
"Why is she with Jellal?!" he said, but every fan girls of Jellal in our class heard his name.
"Jellal-sama?!" everyone said in unison.
"Oh, speaking of Jellal-sama… who would've thought that Lucy-san in her fiancé." one of them said.
"Well... He did say that he have a fiancé but…. I never imagine that its Lucy-chan…" the other girl said.
"But hey, it seems like Jellal-sama like Lucy." The other pointed.
"Yeah, he looks happy this morning." The other one agreed.
"And I saw them earlier holding hands!" the other squealed.
"hey, hey, don't you think they really suit each other?!" the other one excitedly pointed.
"Yeah! We think so too!" the whole girls said in unison.
"Right now were not just Jellal-sama's supporters but were also "JeLu" supports starting today!" theire leader? said as the girls agreed excitedly.
To tell the truth their conversation irritates me….. I hate it… I don't like Lucy to be with Jellal.
I look at Gray to see what his reaction is and I saw that he's making a same face as mine.
'You bastard Gray…! All of this will not happen if Lucy hadn't met you! All of this… was our fault' I said to my mind while making a pained expression.
"…. What are you going to do know…?" he suddenly said.
"What the…? What am I going to do you say…? Even I myself don't know…." I said.
"But why…did't Lucy told us that it was Jellal after all… his fiancé I mean." He said.
"Actually, I know it was Jellal but, you and the others don't." I corrected.
"What?!" he said in surprise.
"Well.. I am with her at that time…" I said.
"Why didn't she tell us?! Did she didn't trust us?"he asked.
"Well she wanted to but she can't, Especially to Erza. You know that she's thinking if every action she will make will hurt her friends or not… she that kind of person… and also...did… Lucy told you about what she's feeling when you ran out in the cafeteria to chase for her…?" I asked. "If she did, think it over and maybe you'll find out why." I said to him and leave the classroom; we don't have classes anyway, the teachers are all in a meeting.
I walk away as I sigh.
"Geez Gray…. you're a big idiot… what did Lucy like about you?!" I sigh.

Gray's P.O.V

I was still shock on the fact that Lucy and Jellal are engage…but the moment I saw them… why did I felt that my heart suddenly tightened a little…? Maybe because of shock…? But what worries me is Erza… on the way to her classroom… she never spoken a word…
I also confront Natsu…. And what does he mean that…?
Think it thoroughly and tried to recall the talk that Lucy and I once had. as I remember…. She… told me that she have feelings about this guy… who loves another girl… who is her friend… oh wait… I think she said she's also friends with the guy…. but, the guy only thinks of her as a friend… and ask for he help…and all she can do… is be by his side to support him….. And whenever those two were together… she's starting to feel jealous and wishes that the guy would love him instead... so… she wanted to forget her feelings for him…
hmm… oh yeah, right. She also told me that there's a small possibility of forgetting him… and… hmmm… and… she said she was engage…. So someone… and maybe… she can learn to love him hand forget the guy… and….
I scratch my head trying to remember the other thing she said.
"I'm weak at remembering stuff!" I said to myself.
hmm…. What, was it again…? ….. Oh yeah..! But she cannot easily do that… because… it can hurt her friend… the girl who the guy she love… loves…..
My eyes widened as I realize something
'wait…. Let me just analyze it all again…'
'if Jellal is the fiancé… the only girl that I know who is friends with Lucy is…. Erza… t-then…. Don't tell me… that the guy….she love…. And cause her sufferings….. Is …'
'No! No! That can't be right! Lucy is always by my side. Helping me like a real friend.'
Then I suddenly remember what she said to me back then:
"I'm willing to help him and hurt myself just to see him smile…
even though that not for me… as long as I don't see him sad I'm fine…"
'Willing to hurt herself…' I said in my mind as I continue to recall what she has said.
'I thought it will all be okay… I thought I can carry all this unwanted feelings alone…
I thought I can smile happily in front of him…'
"…" I was silent for a long time because of shock. Pain was all over in my mind and heart.
'I never knew…. I was the cause of her pain…. I've….. Always….. Always…. Hurt her….all along… why didn't I notice tat the faces she's making means she's hurt….? I'm such an idiot… I hurt a very important friend… I think that… I hurt her the most when I told her that I confess too Erza…. I shouldn't have done that…..
"All along… me without knowing anything… is the one who's hurting Lucy the most…. All of this…. Everything that happened was…. My fault…." I said as I put my face on my hands.
