Natsu sat in the library, his laptop sat in front of him. He stared at the screen as he flipped through the pictures of their vacation. Each one held a picture of Lucy in it. He paused at one with just Lucy, she was standing out front of the villa in a beautiful yellow sundress and was holding a bunch of shopping bags. Her smile was large and her eyes sparkled at the camera. He found himself staring at this one picture and even zooming in to get a better look at her face. His hand raised to his cheek as he remembered the kiss he had received from her. He was lost in his own world, his mind replaying that moment over and over again.
"What are you doing Natsu?" Lucy appeared on his right, she was only a few inches away and looking intently at Natsu. Natsu jumped and slammed the laptop shut causing Lucy to jump back. "What are you doing? You scared me!"
"I was the one that was scared. At least knock or something. It is bad manners to not announce your presence."
"I did but you didn't reply. So I had no choice but to come in." Natsu sighed and closed his eyes. He had to admit that that was a close one. If she had even so much as looked at his screen then he would have a lot of explaining to do. He turned to her and opened one eye.
"So what is it that you wanted?"
"It's just that the test is coming up soon and I came to formally challenge you!" She pointed at him with eyes full of determination. "Natsu, this time I will prevail!"
"Honestly, people like you...very well. However, if I win..." He reached forward and grabbed a lock of her golden hair. Pulling it to his lips, he peered at her with one eye open. "I will have you for a day Lucy." Her face exploded in crimson as she looked into his charcoal eyes. "I told you before, I won't hold back this time."
I stormed back into the greenhouse, my face still a deep red from what had just happened in the library. What Natsu did wouldn't stop replaying in my head. Why would he want me for a day? Why would he do something like that? Of course my only reply to that was something completely stupid. I just had to say that eating hair isn't good. What was I thinking? I stopped after a minute.
"Geez, what is wrong with him? Not holding back, having me for a day? I just don't get it!" My hands gripped at my blond hair as I shook my head. All of this was just so confusing.
"Lucy." I turned to see Mirajane standing not far away.
"What's wrong, Mira?"
"Bad news." Tears leaked from her piercing blue eyes and my heart ached for her. What has her so upset? "The high class table set that I wanted to use today to prepare tea with is in pieces!"
"What do you mean?" She was this upset about something like that?
"Just come with me." She grabbed my hand, tears still pouring from her eyes and began to pull me towards our spot in the greenhouse. We walked up to where the rest of our friends were standing until I saw the scene in front of them. My mouth dropped open at the wreckage in front of me. Everything was destroyed. From our tables and chairs down to the dishes we always use.
"What the hell is this?" I asked mostly to myself. I couldn't believe what I was looking at.
"I was planning on serving tea here today since the damage caused by Gray's bike crash was fixed but this is what I saw once I got here. Thankfully no one was injured." Mirajane explained.
"Who could have done this?" Levy asked. Her petite hand covered her quivering lips. Gajeel grunted in response next to her.
"We have a mystery on our hands." Erza stated. Footsteps sounded from behind me, I turned to see Natsu approaching.
"There are all different types of people in this school." He stopped next to me, his hands in his pockets as he examined the damage. "Which also means there are a great many who hate Fairy Tail."
Looking down at our feet, there were papers tossed all around but one stood out the most. 'Get out'.
"There is no point in dwelling over it, let's just get this place cleaned up." Gray said as he began to pick up the broken glass. "Lucy would you mind grabbing the brooms?"
I walked towards the storage shed and quickly entered. Sorting through the stuff inside, I finally managed to spot the brooms. I grabbed out all the spare brooms before walking back towards the greenhouse. Walking through the courtyard I was once again spotted by the 'F.T. fans.'
"It's Lucy-sama!"
"Are you cleaning Lucy-sama? I can help!"
"Right, we can't let Fairy Tail dirty their hands with such deeds!" The girls walked closer and reached out for the brooms I was holding.
"Um no it's fi-" I tried to reply but was interrupted.
"Oh yeah, Lucy-sama can I get a picture with you?"
"They say that if you carry a picture of a Fairy Tail member with you then your grades will go up."
"That's not fair! I want a picture to!"
"Man, this is awful luck! I forgot my phone in the classroom!"
"That's not true!" I shouted. All the girls instantly seized their words and looked at me with wide eyes. "Please stop this nonsense. Being in Fairy Tail is irrelevant! We are just normal-"
"Your hardly normal." A guy with brown spikey hair walked forward, his face forming a sneer.
"You're..." It's that guy from before. The one who tried to cheat on his test.
"Yes, I have been serving my suspension until now thanks to you."
Mirajane walked out of the kitchen and towards the greenhouse. Holding a tray she approached everyone. "Tea's ready! Even though I had to use our cheapest set."
"Woah, look at that nice tea set!" Gray said.
"Does this look high class to you!" Mirajane shouted at the dark haired man. Gajeel sat there silent as he continued to help clean up the mess. His eyes said that he was lost in his own thoughts.
"What are you thinking about Gajeel?" He looked up to see Natsu standing above him. Natsu's eyes narrowed just slightly. "Please stay composed." Natsu asked as Gajeel's crimson eyes widened.
"What is it? Am I picking up the glass the wrong way or something?" Gajeel grunted frustratingly.
"That is not what I am saying." Natsu kept his onyx eyes locked on Gajeel's. "I understand how you feel but please exercise prudence." Gajeel turned away, his eyes once more gaining that far off look.
