New chapter, and sorry for any mistakes, well enjoy :P
I do not own Fairy Tail
Lucy studied her class schedule and found out that she had double history first thing in the morning, which was taught by Scorpio, then there was recess afterwards, soon followed by a work period (meaning no class, but you get time to study), gym taught by Aquarius, lunch, double math taught by Happy, and then the last class English taught by Macao. She quickly made her way through the empty halls, since she was 30 minutes late for school after all, and found the room she was looking for: room 435.
She gently knocked on the door, being really embarrassed about interrupting a class, and a young tanned man who had half of his hair red and the other white smoothed back with gel, a black line underneath his dark eyes, who wore a red dress shirt with a black tie and dress pants along with dress shoes, looked her way. Scorpio made his way towards the door and opened it.
"Hello, may I help you?" He asked, thinking that she was a student who came to get something. Lucy gazed down at her shoes and played with her skirt.
"I'm sorry that I'm late for class and interrupting your lecture," Lucy said shyly, still not wanting to meet the teacher's eye who might be burning with fury at the moment.
"Oh, you must be that new student! Well, come in and introduce yourself, yeah!" He said coolly and gestured her to join the class. This confused the blonde very much, she was definitely not expecting this. She thought he was going to give her a long lecture about being late then send her to the office or detention, but his reaction was completely the opposite.
"I'm not in trouble?" She asked surprised and she heard giggles from the classmates. A blush of embarrassment covered her cheeks as she slowly entered the classroom. The teacher looked confused at first but then he let out a chuckle.
"No, of course not," he said and smiled as he placed his hand on her shoulder, "now introduce yourself to the class." Lucy turned to face the students who were seated at dark wooden desks on comfortable looking wooden chairs. The walls were a cream yellow which made the room look bright and there were ebony book shelves filled with hundreds of books.
"Hello, I'm Lucy, lets be friends!" She quickly said as she played with her skirt out of a nervous habit. There were many students who all looked weird in their own special ways and Lucy swore that this class has almost every stereo type in all of Earthland, although she knew that she shouldn't judge by looks.
"Lucy you may sit in the back between Jellal and Zeref," Scorpio said as he pointed to an empty seat between a guy who had spiky blue hair, dark blue eyes, a red tattoo that covers his right eye and wore a white shirt with a loosened blue tie and black dress pants and shoes, and another guy who had black messy hair, ebony eyes which held a sorrowful look, and wore a white dress shirt with a red tie and a midnight vest, black dress pants and shoes. Lucy slowly walked to the seat, sensing something off with the boys she was assigned to sit next to.
As she sat down, the blue haired guy, which she assumed to be Jellal, glared at her and Zeref glanced with curiosity. Some of the girls stared at Lucy with hatred, thinking she was lucky to sit next to two good looking guys (both being in the top ten best looking boys in school). This made Lucy feel uneasy, they didn't give off the best welcoming looks, but that soon changed.
"Okay class, since it's the first day and all, you may have a free period, yeah!" The teacher announced as he lay back in his chair, kicking his feet on his large wooden desk while taking out his red phone so he could text his girlfriend, Aquarius. Everyone cheered loudly at Scorpio's decision and soon went into groups to talk about summer.
"Hey Lu-chan!" Levy said happily as she went over to Lucy with a smile plastered on her face. The blunette felt a tad nervous and guilty that she let her best friend oversleep on the first day of school and now she knew that she will be lectured by the blonde. Lucy looked up and glared playfully at Levy, she wasn't angry with her friend, but it would be fun just to mess with her for a while.
"Hello miss who-doesn't-even-bother-waking-me-up-this-morning, " Lucy replied and Levy scratched the back of her neck nervously.
"Hehe, sorry about that," was the only words that came out, even though Lucy knew she didn't fully meant the apology and sighed.
"Yeah, yeah. I forgive you this time," she warned as she waved her left hand lazily as a sign of forgiveness. Levy smiled at her best friend and then a crowd of people came to her table. There was a girl with scarlet hair who had black rectangular glasses and brown eyes. She wore a white blouse with a red jacket that had the school's symbol along with a blue and white stripped tie and wore a gray skirt along with navy socks and black shoes. Behind her, there were two boys who seemed to be bickering about something pointless. The one on the right had wild pink hair, onyx eyes, and wore a white scarf that had scales and a untucked shirt with gray pants and black sneakers. The other guy had black spiky hair, dark blue eyes, and was unconsciously loosening his tie while his shirt was already off and all he had left was gray pants, a black belt, and black sneakers.
"Hello, I am Erza Scarlet, student president," the red head said proudly as she extended her hand out. Lucy smiled and shook her hand gently, she was happy that she was already making friends. "Are you guys fighting?" Erza then said in a deadly tone as she glared from the corner of her eyes. Lucy sweat dropped at the boys' reaction when they heard her warning. They quickly threw their arms around each other shoulders and faked smiled while nervously chirping something about being best friends. "I apologise about those two idiots. The pink haired boy is Natsu and the other one is Gray."
"Oh, haha, it's fine. My name is Lucy, nice to meet you," she introduced herself and smiled and the red head smiled warmly back. Maybe she would fit in after all and that there are very kind people here who are willing to be her friends.
"Hi Luce!" The pink haired boy said as he broke through Lucy's comfort zone. This startled the poor blonde and she let out a small scream as she fell backwards in her chair. She closed her eyes tightly, waiting to hit the solid ground, but it had never came. Slowly, she opened her eyes to take a peek to see what had happened to find sad onyx eyes staring at her. Zeref had stop the chair from falling along with her and everything was dead silent to her as she looked at his face. He looked so different from everyone, so lonely, but so beautiful.
"Thank you" she quietly said under her breath, stuttering a bit. In reply he just nodded and then left class with that Jellal guy. Lucy sat there dumbfounded that he just nodded then ditched class with his weird friend. Well, they're both weird in Lucy's eyes.
Everyone stared at her, thinking the same thing, but they soon all shook the feeling off. The two boys were always one of the odd ones, even though they are the best looking guys. They soon resumed chatting to Lucy, asking about her summer and trying to get to know each other better.
The bell rang, which made Lucy a bit sad that time went by so fast. So far she was having a great school day and could not wait to meet more people. It was a 30 minute recess and then a work period, so Lucy decided to hit the library to read some book and write.
It was now lunch time and Lucy's body was aching from gym. Aquarius made them work very hard, running 30 100m laps, 50 push-ups, sit-ups, and weight lifting, and that was only the warm up. She then made them all play extreme soccer and this all happened in 60 minutes. Lucy really felt like she had done enough exercise for the rest of the year and worse, she can already imagine what double physical education would be like.
She finally made it to the large cafeteria, which for some strange reason has a bar, and could smell the delicious food. There were large brown tables with benches where students eat at and varies of coloured Fairy Tail banners dangled from the ceiling. Lots of high school students were already sitting at the tables with their friends whilst eating.
Lucy quickly got in line with an orange tray which had a plate, cutlery, and a white napkin on it. The line was a bit long, thus it even took a while to even see the lunch server. She started to wonder if lunch was this busy every single day and if she would even have time afterwards since it was an one hour lunch break.
She finally had reached the lunch server who had a name tag that read Shitou Yajima, who was a short elder man with dark gray eye brows and mustache (he didn't have any hair on his head, for he was already bald) and wore a small white chef hat and jacket. The man gently smiled at her as he served her food which was potatoes with chicken and a side of cooked carrots and corn. Lucy said a quick thank you before looking for a seat in the busy cafeteria.
"Luce, over here!" A voice called out to her and her head quickly turned in the direction it came from to find Natsu waving at her with a large grin on his face. The blonde smiled at him and walked over to their table which contained Erza, Gray, Levy, and other people hadn't met yet.
"Hey, I'm Mirajane, but you can call me Mira," a girl with azure eyes and white long wavy hair with her bangs held up by an elastic. Mira wore a white shirt and a gray skirt, along with black tights and black shoes. She was absolutely stunning in Lucy eyes; a person to idolize.
"Hi, I'm Lucy," she greeted as she sat down between Levy and Erza. She soon then met Elfman, Mira's younger brother, who had blue eyes, spiky white hair, a scar below his right eye and wore a white dress shirt with a loose blue tie and beige pants with white shoes. There was also Gajeel, Juvia, Cana, and Loke.
Gajeel had black, spiky, long hair, a lot of piercings on his ear, bridge of his nose, and eyebrows (instead of hair), and fangs just like Natsu. He wore a dress shirt which was loose at the top completed with a black, ripped jacket with studs over it and black pants with black shoes. Lucy also noticed that Levy acted different around him; a little more self-concious (this made Lucy feel happy and will tease her about it later).
Juvia had blue hair that reached her shoulders and curled up at the end, and she had blue eyes. She has a buttoned short sleeved shirt with a lose blue tie, a gray skirt, navy socks and black shoes. Lucy didn't get the most welcoming hello from her since Juvia warned her to stay away from Gray, stating that he was hers and for some reason Lucy was now her love-rival.
Cana had long wavy brown hair along with brown eyes and wore a dress shirt which was loose at the top and a very long gray skirt with black shoes underneath. She smelt of alcohol and had a small blush covering her cheeks, indicating that she was drunk. She also does fortune telling with cards as a hobby.
Last, but not least, Loke, who had light orange hair, hazel eyes which were covered by light blue shaded sunglasses and wore a dress shirt with a red tie and beige pants along with black shoes. The first impression Lucy got from him was that he was a playboy since he basically appeared out of nowhere next to her on his knees, gently taking her hand, and told Lucy that her knight in shining armour had finally came.
The people in this school never failed to amuse Lucy, although she only met a few people from this entire school. She doubt that she would find one normal person in this building, and if so, it would probably be the end of the world.
Throughout the rest of the lunch, Lucy laughed and chatted away the time with her new found friends. She was having a blast and it was just her first day. Without even knowing, the school day had came to an end, much to her dismay, but she couldn't wait for tomorrow. There was something that Lucy did notice during school time. The two boys, Jellal and Zeref, weren't there, thus they skipped out on the entire first day of school.
This was going through her mind the entire walk back with Levy, who seemed worried about her friend. She couldn't help but to think how mysterious they were; so distant and quiet. She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't even realised where she was walking and ended up wandering into a wall. She fell onto her butt with an 'oof' and rubbed her nose which burned from the hit.
Levy looked down at her friend and face palmed, thinking how her friends are all morons. She sighed and gave Lucy a hand to get back up, who then stumbled a bit afterwards. The blonde was smart, but can be the clumsiest person Levy had ever met.
"You're so clumsy, Lucy," Levy sighed again and continued to walk towards home. Lucy stood there, processing what her best friend had just said and was just about to argue back to find that she had already left. The blonde quickly ran to catch up with her friend, not noticing that something was watching her in the shadows.
