Chapter 2: New School, Clean Slate

Natsu's POV:

I trembled.

I'm almost to my new school, alongside with Lisanna.

She's just smiling happily, although.

While I'm here, about to pass out.

Phew, calm down, Natsu. Remember what Mira said? Stay positive. So you better stay positive. Wait... What if I see Lucy?! She was literally glaring at me after what happened with Dan! It's... Whatever... It's not like I would get a chance, she is with someone.

My tense body calmed down.

B-B-Bu-But, what if she would get mad? She'd probably hate me for life! I can't just have that...! S-She hates me...

My body tensed up once more.

She hates me, she hates me, she hates me, she hates me, she HATES ME! I know it, she hates m-

"Natsu, what are you doing? Hurry up!"

Lisanna's voice interrupted my train of thought. She was already up ahead, by the school gates.

I nodded and walked as slow as I could towards the school gates. Every step I made, my speed decreased little by little.

I finally arrived at the gates, with a cold stare from Lisanna.

"What took you so long? Are you nervous?" She asked, as her stare turned into a worried frown.

"Yeah, uh, I just walked really slow.." I answered her question, and she looked at me again with her demanding stare.

"Hmm..." Her face looked as if she was thinking about something really hard. "Okay!" Her face lit up. "Okay, now let's go!" She took me by the hand then ran into the school.

"Newbies?" A scarlet-haired woman walked up to us.

"Yup!" Lisanna exclaimed happily. "You're the amazing Titania, Erza Scarlet, correct?"

The so-called 'Titania' nodded her head in response. "And I am also the student council president. If you need me, you could usually find me in the student council room, and by the way, there's a spot for the treasurer, so you could always sign up, but only for the next 2 weeks."

Erza handed us each a form that explained the classes, teachers, students, and so on.

"If you read that, you'll know everything you need to know. Sorry, but there's other students I need to attend to." And with that she zoomed off, going to the rest new students.

I took a glance at Lisanna, who was staring at the paper very carefully. "Alright, I know what class I'm in! 3-2, third year, second class. You're in 4-1, fourth year, first class."

I nodded as she spoke. Keeping a blank face on, I walked side-by-side with Lisanna, as I saw people stare at both Lisanna and I. I walked Lisanna to her class then wished her luck, as she did the same for me.

As I walked away, I was in a long train of thought. Okay, Natsu. Now is your time to shine! Just be positive and happy, and everything will be alright.

I calmed myself down as I stood beside the door for 4-1. I put on a... smile then walked in.

What I saw, so much things were going on. There was a black-haired guy who had his shirt off, Erza yelling at the man who had stripped, a blue-haired girl who had hearts as her eyes because of the black-haired man, a girl with glasses and long tan hair sitting in a chair, one girl and one guy drinking, a tall, black-haired man holding a petite blue-haired girl by her collar, Dan talking to his friends, and last but not least, Lucy... trying to help the girl who was picked up.

"Be QUIET!" The blonde teacher yelled. I think his name is... Mr. Laxus Dreyar.

His demanding roar silenced the class. "Ahem." He coughed. "Anyways, everyone please take your seats, we have a new student today." He looked over to me. "What's your name?"

I looked at him as he stared at me, waiting for an answer. I finally opened my moth to answer. "Uhm.. My name is Natsu Dragneel." I spoke as I turned to look at the class.

"Good, now that that's over with, let me introduce myself. I'm Mr. Laxus Dreyar, but you could call me Mr. Laxus." He introduced himself. "And, your seat is right there, by Gray and Lucy."

As soon as I heard those words escape his mouth, I completed shivered. Sitting next to Lucy? What a dream come true! But, I still don't know if she hates me or not.

I walked towards the middle, to where Gray and Lucy were, then I sat myself down in the desk between them.

"Now, everyone, introduce yourself to Natsu. Let's start with Erza." Mr. Laxus pointed at Erza in the first seat, front row.

I watched as Erza rose from her seat. "I'm Erza Scarlet, you have already met me this morning. And you also know I'm the student council president." She bowed then sat down.

The next student stood up, the girl with the blue hair. "Juvia's name is Juvia Lockser." She stared at me long and hard. "Please don't trouble Juvia and become her love rival."

W-What...?

Gray stood up. "I'm Gray Fullbuster, and don't mind me if I strip, it's a habit. But what Juvia means by love rival is that she doesn't want you to fall for me." He then sat down.

The student behind Gray stood up very slowly. "I'm Bacchus~"

Then the girl behind me stood up, "I'm Cana~"

Both then sat down.

Probably a bit tipsy.

Then I turned to the man sitting next to Cana. "I'm Jellal Fernandes. I'm the vice-president. So if you can't find Erza, you could come to me."

I looked at Lucy, but she didn't stand up. "I'm Lucy Heartfilia, and I like to read and write. I hope we become good friends!" She smiled then turned to her front.

Me? I blushed a little. At least she doesn't hate me.

I turned to the girl in-front of her. "I'm Levy, and I have the same hobbies as Lucy." She grinned at me then sat down.

I looked over to the other side, and there was the mysterious girl. "I'm Evergreen. Just don't tick me off." She stated coldly.

I turned to the guy next to Lucy. "I'm Gajeel Redfox."

Then last but not least, Dan.

"Hey there, Natsu!" He had a completely diverse attitude then when I first encountered him. "I'm Dan Straight! Nice to meet you!"

H-How...? Wasn't he the meanest guy on Earth?

I sat in my seat, dumbfounded.

~O~O~

The classes went by quick. And before I knew it, I was in the cafeteria, just standing there like a loner. Then someone thugged me from behind.

It was... a little girl.

"Huh?" I looked down at the girl. She was almost the same size as Levy, with long, dark-blue hair. She had her arms to her back, which were holding each other together.

"A-Are you... Natsu...?" The little girl asked.

"Uh..." I ran out of words to say. "Yeah... I'm Natsu. And you are...?"

"I-I'm W-Wendy.. Sorry if I caused you trouble!" She bowed, as little tears fell down her eyes.

She's a shy one..

I squatted down to her height, put my tray on the floor, then patted her head. "It's okay, there's no need to cry." I tried to calm her down by patting her on the head, and she lifted her head up as I saw her tiny fists close to her eyes, wiping away the tears.

I heard 'Awws~' as I treated her like my own little sister.

"This is his first day here, and he's already a sweetheart!"

"That's so adorable!"

"It's like brother and sister!"

I ignored their thoughts and continued to pat her head. "Don't worry, you didn't do anything wrong. Don't cry."

She wiped away her tears, and I put on a little smile. "So what did you need?" I asked.

"N-Noting... Lisanna-san was just talking about you, so I thought I-I would meet y-you!" She said her feelings aloud.

"Aw, you're a 'lil cutie!" I patted her head once more then picked up my tray, and stood up. "Let's eat lunch together then."

I went to sit down at a vacant table, and she sat in-front of me. "I really wanted to ask you something... Lisanna was talking so good about you, I thought you w-would be the perfect person to ask.. I'm 14, but I'm an advanced student, so I'm in my third-year of high school... There's another advanced student... And I-I l-l-li-like.. hi-him.."

"Young love.." I spoke as I took a bite of my sandwich. "Okay, so what do you need to ask about it?"

"Uhm... I don't know if he likes me back, I mean we talk alot... But I don't know if our feelings are mutual..."

"It's okay! Just bring up the courage to confess, and whether his decision will be, I'm sure you'll be happy! I could feel it!" I gave her some advice. As if, Natsu, you can't even tell that to your own crush.

"O-Okay...! I-I'll tell h-him now!" She stood up and ran away.

"That's adorable." I stated, as I started to eat my food alone.

Then, to my un-expectations, Lucy came over.

"Lu-Lucy...?" I asked as she sat herself down in-front of me. Don't panic, Natsu, she doesn't hate you, she just said she hopes to become great friends! Wait.. Friends? Only the friend zone, of course. I'm ne-

"Natsu, I need to say something to you. Do not mess with Dan. I know all that happened with you fighting him and all that. I want none of it. I know, I want to be great friends with you! But I can't have you fighting with my boyfriend.. Let me tell you now, he has a problem."

Problem...?

She sighed. "He has split personalities. One good side, and one bad side. His bad side appears when his feelings or emotions get high. That's why when he fell, you immediately saw him crying. That was his good side. His bad side was the... y'know one. He's usually happy all the time, but when his emotions come into place, his personality changes."

"Oh.." I mumbled quietly.

"Okay? You understand now, Natsu?" She asked me.

"Y-Yeah... I understand." I started, blandly. Of course, the boyfriend has a problem... That's why he was different! But... I should respect her and his needs.. However.. I don't know how these feelings are going to disappear.
