Okay, I'm such a TERRIBLE human being. I did say that I would post the chapters for this fanfic quite often on the previous chapter and YAY I didn't even post one chapter ^~^ (well I guess it's kind of a good thing since I kept you guys waiting with a cliffhanger :P). I'm so sorry for the wait, I was quite busy these past months (or mostly because I was too lazy to write whoopsy). I think it's been…almost two months? Or probably more actually and again, I am terribly sorry! But today, JENG JENG JENG! I am back with another chapter and hopefully you lovely people would enjoy it!
DISCLAIMER : I do not own these characters and English is my second language so I'll place another apology here in case I made any mistakes!
CHAPTER 3 – FIRST DAY (PART 2)
NATSU'S POV
I decided to walk around the school grounds to take a good sniff of the fresh, clean air during lunch break. It's feels good to do this sometimes really. I was passing through the park behind the school building, occasionally kicking the little rocks scattered around, getting a little lost in my fantasies util I accidently bumped into someone, a girl to be exact, who seems to have lost her balance from the impact. I moved quickly to wrap my arms around her slender figure before she reached the hard ground, her beautiful golden, soft hair brushed against my arms.
"You okay?"
I asked, voice filled with concern, noticing that she closed her eyes during the current event that happened, realising it's the new student. Quite a hottie if you ask me, I mean, look at that model figure, beautiful sunshine hair, mesmerising chocolate orbs, totally someone to die for. You may not see me as one to be interested in these stuffs but I tell you, I'm quite the observant.
She slowly opened her eyes, a light blush coating her pale cheeks the moment she saw me, my own cheeks warming up as she stared up upon me.
"Y-Yeah.. T-Thanks!"
She exclaimed, all flustered.
"Good and no problem, um…Luigi right?"
I couldn't really recall her name, so I hoped I got her name right, slowly helping her to stand up properly once more at the same time. She fixed her attire and faced me, eyebrows furrowed.
"W-Wha..? It's LUCY!"
She slightly screamed, my right hand slowly moving upwards to ruffle my salmon hair, feeling a tad bit embarrassed that I got her name incorrectly. Whoops.
"Oh? Sorry, Lucy"
I gave her a wide grin, eyes closed, my arms crossed over my chest.
"Sheesh, is there even a girl named Luigi?"
She copied my actions, giving me a sort of a 'are you serious' look.
"I'm positive that there might be" I chuckled amusingly, continuing my sentence with, "What are you doing here anyways?"
"I was heading towards one of the convenient water taps over there and it seemed like I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." She blushed a light scarlet, covering half of her face with her hands from slight embarrassment.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, Luce. I was doing the same thing."
I flashed a huge smile, moving my hands to pry her gentle ones off her porcelain face.
"Hey, you got some hair out of place, let me help"
I pushed some of her bangs away, gently moving my thumb to caress her currently rose cheeks, getting another good view of her features. She stood there dumbfounded, a few chuckles escaping my lips as I turned around to walk away slowly, waving a hand as a sign of goodbye.
"See ya later, Luce! Nice chatting with ya!"
LUCY'S POV
"L-Luce…"
I was stunned, finding myself unable to move which is strange I suppose. But most importantly… WAS HE TRYING TO FLIRT WITH ME? I blushed dark crimson at the thought, I mean… a hot hunk was right in front of me. I think his name is Natsu. I think. But after a couple of 'seconds' I finally felt my limbs again and proceeded to do what I was going to do, kind of getting a feeling that I'm being watched….nah.
LEVY'S POV
"Hehe…"
A smirk tugged on my lips as I watched the scene that had occurred a while ago, thinking this might be a good teasing topic.
AFTER LUNCH BREAK
NORMAL POV
Students were walking around the main hallway, trying to get to their respective classes for the rest of the day in time, a certain blonde with her new gals walking into an astronomy lab.
"Sugoi…"
That one word slipped past the blonde's mouth as she looked around the galaxy and science themed room, the other students taking their seats slowly. She managed to find an empty seat next to Natsu coincidentally, her cheeks getting slightly warm as the mentioned boy flashed a toothy grin at her with a simple wave as a sign of greeting. She repeatedly said in her mind that she should just chill out, 'it's just Natsu for god's sake'.
The teacher that was assigned to teach them entered the class moments later, the students presenting the usual greeting as the teacher stood in front of the crowd. The class started, the blonde very intrigue on learning about stars and celestials.
"RINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG"
The school bell rung loudly, signalling the end of the day, which got the hallway busy as everyone rushed to exit the building. Sadly, the clouds turned grey as the sky darkens, rain drops falling down to Earth, making a few unlucky peeps stay behind for shelter and apparently, a certain blonde was part of that group.
LUCY'S POV
"…."
I knew it. I should have brought the mini umbrella that I bought just the other day for this exact purpose. Looks like I forgot to put it my bag. Well, time for another session of 'the waiting game'. Suddenly my vision darkened which I then realised a pair of hands are currently covering my eyes.
"Levy?"
I guessed, but these pair of hands are waayyy larger than Levy's. I jumped to a conclusion that it is actually a male covering my eyes and trust me, the first thing that came to my mind was,
"Natsu?"
"Yup! Nice guessing Luce!"
He pried his hands off my eyes, moving my figure around to fully face the salmon haired latter.
"Heh…Just a lucky guess really"
"Hey Luce, looks like you're in a pickle, need um…..a ride?"
He tilted his head slightly to the side, a hand riffling his messy, soft hair adorably, barely looking at me straight in the eyes. I bit my bottom lip, thinking 'why not?'. I mean, who could probably say no to that cute face, so I fixed my bag over my shoulders, mustering a sincere, thankful smile, a slight blush dusting my cheeks as I nodded lightly.
"Sure! But can I really ride with you..?"
I asked for confirmation, the latter nodding with a huge grin as he literally grabbed my hand and led me to a roofed parking lot next to the school building.
"It's no biggie! Don't want ya to be waiting forever for the rain to stop! And besides, I'd gladly do anything for a friend!"
He took out his car keys and unlocked his car which was a red…..LAMBORGHINI?! I mean, I am from a wealthy family but it's still shocking to see that a young clad like him would own one.
"Wow….nice car you got here"
I praised, which was replied with a chuckle from the one and only Natsu.
"Thanks, my dad gave it to me a few months ago"
He gestured me to get into the passenger side, which I obeyed politely of course.
"Be prepared"
He started the engine and it roared, but surprisingly, it wasn't that loud. He let go of the handbrake and set the car in drive mode, a smile gracing my lips as the car moved at a quite quick speed, rain falling onto the car as it exited the school lot. My chocolate orbs were trailing the scenery passing by outside the car window, loving how the town looked in the pouring rain.
"Ayy Luce, want to stop by a café to get some hot chocolate? It would feel good to get some of that warm, chocolaty goodness right now. I know a good place nearby if you want. I swear, their hot chocos are the BEST!"
He looked like he really wanted me to say yes, which I'm actually up for actually. Oh, I definitely need some of that chocolaty goodness. Now that I gave it a little thought, is this considered as a date? I flushed while cupping my cheeks, Natsu giving me a sort of confused look I guess.
"Lucy, you're weird y'know"
He remarked, giving me a dumbfounded look which of course got me really embarrassed and mad at the same time actually. DID HE JUST CALL ME WEIRD.
"W-wha…. I'm n-not WEIRD"
I wanted to scream but it came out horribly really.
"Uh-huh"
He retorted confidently.
"Nuh-uh!"
"Yes
"NO!"
"So, you want me to drop you off on the streets and I'll have to go to the café alone? Okay"
"What? No I was referring to when you called me weird!"
"And?"
I breathed a long sigh, giving up this argument, it's pretty useless really…
"….I would love to go to the café, Natsu…"
"Yush, I'm all fired up!"
He sharply turned at a corner at a fast speed, my poor dear self 'flying' around the vehicle.
"WE'RE HERE!"
"I COULD HAVE DIED FROM THAT"
"But we still made it right?"
Suddenly, his face turned green, looking like he's about to vomit actually.
"N-NATSU?! Are you okay..?"
"H-hold u-upppp… looks l-like t-he effect o-of my motion s-sickness pills is not w-working anymoooree, UURFF"
He quickly stopped the engine and exited the vehicle, cheering happily as he looked refreshed and that nothing happened. Weird…
I too, exited the fancy vehicle and stretched my limbs, admiring the exterior of the decent sized café. Suddenly, an arm was draped over my shoulders and enveloped me into a gentle half hug.
"Well Luce, what do you think? Welcome to Magnolia's High Café!"
I perked up at the mention of Magnolia's High Café, finding it hard to believe such place would exist.
"Wha….?"
"Shocker huh? Well, this is the place where students and also normal civilians can come and hang out or even do study groups and projects too! I just love this place!"
"Woah…."
He suddenly grabbed a hold of my hand and stared deeply into my orbs, a wide smile plastered over his features.
"Let me repeat my invitation ne? Will you, Lucy, care to join me on a little hot chocolate session?"
A/N : YAY! I finally wrote a new chapter! *^* There was a lot of NaLu 'moments' in this chapter which is just perf and I do plan on making Lucy be with Natsu for this story and also, if you guys want me to do other ships please do leave a review or a pm and I might do another story for the particular ships you guys might suggest. Don't worry, I ship almost every ship in Fairy Tail so there's definitely going to be quite the variety. Okay, I hoped you lovely peeps enjoyed it and I would really love it if you could leave a review and suggestions on how I should improve this story so yeah, sorry if it was a little long, I was just in the mood to write and well, you understand. Hopefully I'll return soon with another chapter and sayonara minna~!
