Next chapter! Yay! I'm excited to explain everything! I think in the last chapter, I had a bunch of spelling errors, so I'm sorry.

Anyways, Like I said last chapter, I really am sorry about Hide and Seek being late... but it's just sooooooooooo hard to do exposition!

Yes, yes there was one thing that made me a little more upset averytime I thought about it. It was why me and Natsu lived with our aunt Porlyusica. Well... live with is an overstatement really, it's more like we live at her house and she works all the time. She was my mother's sister, and she's my god mother, but I feel like mom just did a better job of being the motherly figure.

I don't like thinking about it...

I looked up at the clock, it was just about time for class to start. I pulled out my phone and read my text messages;

1 from: Natsu,

3 from: Chelia,

1 from: ... Lucy...?

1 from: Aunt Porlyusica.

I read from Aunt Porlyusica's first, "Good morning, Wendy. Today I need you to do what you normally do and keep the house clean. I will come back from work in 1 week." I sighed at the formalness she puts into everything.

Natsu was normally nonchalant in his messages; always trying to make then as short as possible with texting tricks. "Hey hav u met new kid yt? His name: Romeo... (inserts_emoticon_questioning_face)" at least it was readable... and no... I haven't met the new kid...

I replied to him saying "no"

Now this is new... I never get messages from Lucy. She's my friend and she's nice but, she doesn't usually text me when we've talked in school. I opened the message and smiled. "Hihi. I want 2 strt a study grp. with you guys this wk. Tht ok?" Oh yes, study groups are the best with all of my friends.

Lucy usually likes to come over with Natsu because they are best friends. I personally think they like eachother, but they would both deny it if I asked. I replied "duh! Of course!"

Ahhh, Chelia... always going overboard with everything. Three messages? This is the norm for her, she likes to be an optomistic texter. "Mornin!" , "Homework was so hard last night!" , "Oooh! New kid is cuteeeee :3"

I still haven't had a good look at him. I saw the back of his head and part of his nose... so I replied "so i've herd"

As soon as I pocketed my phone the teacher started announcements for the day. Mr. Dreyar hadn't said anything too exciting, until the part about the new kid started.

"Alright guys, Today we have a new student joining us today." he gestured at the boy sitting behind Natsu, "His name is Romeo, so I expect you brats to treat him well! That's it for today, roll call!

I looked around the room as names were called and responded to with a "here" or a "present". The classroom was dividided into five rows of five. I sit at the far right near the window, behind a girl named Juvia. Chelia was to my left, and Natsu was behind Chelia. His seat was next to Lucy and I could see that behind him, was Romeo...

He had wide, slightly slanted, brown eyes; and very dark, navy hair. He's so... Oh crap, he's looking!

I turned my head and stared at the clock until homeroom ended. I grabbed my stuff and headed for the door just like everyone else. My first class was social studies and the six other kids in my homeroom who shared that fact, walked with me.

Natsu is one of those people, so I talked to him on the way down the hall.

"So, did you finish your essay?" he asked.

"Yeah. I still don't understand why it had to be so long, though... I mean three pages is a little much, am I right?" I was annoyed as to how much we had to write in Mr. Freed's English class...

"I didn't finish... That jerk can't make me write that much!"

"I bet Lucy could..." I smirked at his dusted pink cheeks. "I bet she'll be disappointed in you for not doing it..."

"Shut up! Let me use yours, then!" He reached for my English binder, but instead of grabbing it, he fell to the floor along with another person.

"Owww! HEY! GET OFF OF ME ICE PRINCESS!" he chastised.

"GET OUT FROM UNDERNEATH ME ASS FLAME!" the 'Ice Princess' spat back. I looked closer and saw the only guy who wouldn't have his shirt on... Gray.

"MAKE ME!"

"MAYBE I WILL"

"GO GET FREEZER BURN"

"YOU GO GET BURNED"

"STOP TALKING TO ME POPSICLE"

"YOU STARTED IT HOT SAUCE"

"EWW... did you just call me 'hot'?" Natsu scoffed, "PERVERT"

"I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT AND YOU KNOW IT, DUMBASS!"

"WELL-" and that's when the person that no one wanted to mess with walked into the ugly picture.

"Will you two... STOP FIGHTING THIS INSTANT!" the redhead yelled.

"Y-Yes m-ma'am!" both Natsu and Gray saluted to her.

'Only Erza Scarlet could break up one of their fights... Now how many hours of detention are they going to get this time?' I thought.

"Um... Excuse me? Are you Wendy? Wendy Marballs?" a strange voice interrupted my thoughts... and said my last name wrong... I turned to find the culprit.

"It's Marvell... and- Oh! Aren't you that new kid?" I mentally cursed myself for almost lashing out on the new kid... of course he wouldn't know my last name.

"Y-yeah!" he seemed nervous,"Mr. Dreyar told me to give you this note..." he handed me a sticky note written in cursive.

"Wendy Marvell, Please show Romeo around

the halls and to his classes, you both have all the same classes so

it shouldn't be much trouble to help him around.

Thank you ~ L. Dreyar"

I sighed, looking back up at Romeo. 'Well... To new adventures!' I thought.

"C'mon, let's go. First class is Mr. Clive's social studies class." I gestured to teacher in a brown suit standing nearly ten feet in front of us.

We started to the classroom, along with the rest of my friends. I quickly explained the situation with the strange boy who was following me, to the teacher. Then... He smiled and gave Romeo a big... hug? A HUG!?

"Uhhh, what-" I was immediately interrupted.

"I know his dad!" Mr. Clive cheered. "How's Macao, kid?"

"Uhm, he's great... uncle Gildarts I didn't know you taught here..." the boy answered.

XoXoX

Well, well, well. Just how does Gildarts know Romeo's dad?

Yay! Chapter 2! I hope people start reading soon... :/

Arigatou!
