Lucy pov

When erza was at my door step I didn't know what to do. Even when she hugged me she surprised me. I will always remember that time. That was the first time I ever had a friend come over.

She came in, visited and left. She just wanted to make sure I was okay. She was so surprised at how big my house was compared to hers.

I was supposed to go to her house on Sunday. She wanted me to meet her boyfriend jellal.

"You have a boyfriend?!" I spout out. She laughed and wiped the tears from her eyes. When she stopped laughing she nodded her head.

"Yeah.. His names jellal. He's been wanting to meet you ever since I told him about you."

I remember feeling that warm feeling again. I smiled. "He's actually grateful for you.. You sort of helped me in some sort of way. I was dealing with something my own.." she trailed on.

"Well I don't know what kind of impression I'll leave on him but.. I'll try." Erza looked at Lucy, stunned. Her eyes glowed with pure happiness.

"Thanks Lucy." Lucy nodded and smiled at her. Erza looked at her lap.

I sat in a tub full of hot water. I stared down at my reflection. The dark circles under my eyes sort of faded away. But not completely. I sighed and closed my eyes.

Tomorrow was Sunday I realized. She told me where her house is. So it shouldn't be hard. But I held my chest. I could feel the anxiety already.

I kept thinking of what if. It ran through my mind on repeat. I held my breath and went under the water and came back up again.

If erza needs me then I'll be there for her. She has been there for me all this time, now it's my turn.

Besides, he's the one wanting to meet me. I should be happy. Nobody ever wanted to meet me besides family.

I felt happy just thinking about it.

I got out of the tub and went straight to bed.

I knocked on the door. Erza opened it. She smiled and greeted me. I greeted back and smiled. "Come in Lucy. No need to be shy" I smiled and walked in. She shut the door behind me.

Erza's home wasn't to small. It was big actually. It had 3 floors.

"Hello, you must Lucy right?" I heard someone say. I turned to see a guy with blue hair sitting on the couch. He had a red tattoo on his eye. He smiled kindly and told me to sit down.

I sat across from him. "I heard alot from erza about you" he smiled again. "Same with you" I replied.

"I've been meaning to thank you actually" jellal said as erza left the room. "Erza..hasn't been herself lately. Until just recently." I listened to him trail on.

"But since she met you..she's-"

"I know.. But she helped me too. So in some sort of way we helped each other" I smiled. I could tell he was staring at me. But when I opened my eyes he had a warm smile. The one that erza gives whenever we talk or she tries to cheer me up.

"So..do you like writing?"

"Bye erza!"

"Bye Lucy, I'll see you tomorrow!"

"It was nice to meet you Lucy!"

"You too jellal, bye guys"

I waved as I started walking home. It was getting dark out now. Yet it was only 7.

We had fun, I actually made a friend. I know it sounds lame but I'm proud of myself. Jellal seemed nice. I could tell by the way he looks at erza he loves her.

I smiled as I was walking.

Once I reached home, I was tired. So I changed into pajamas and went to sleep right away.

I didnt have any nightmares that night.

I sat in the classroom. I looked at the seat to my left, it was empty. I was always in class early. So when the Bell rang everyone came flooding in.

Class started and he said a few words. I didn't bother listening. He pointed at the door and a guy walked in.

I was blanking out at the moment. Day dreaming. And looking out the window. So I didn't pay attention to him when he sat next to me.

At the end of class I left and went to my locker. I opened it and another pile of papers came flying out again, in every direction.

It was all the horrible writing again. But twice as deadly.

I picked them up and threw them away. I could hear those girls laughing at me again.

I don't know why but it started wearing me down. I stood by the garbage. And held my breath as I started walking.

I started tearing up so I ran. I ran as fast as I could to the farthest place possible. It was lunch anyway.

I went outside and sat on the side of the building. I couldn't stop the tears, I felt them flowing and rolling down my cheeks.

I started to cry. I sobbed into my sleeves. I tried stopping since I knew my face would puff up if I cried any more.

"Hey? Are you crying?" I heard. My heart sunk. Someone caught me. "You shouldn't be crying at school. Nor crying at all" someone stood in front of me.

I looked up to see a guy with pink hair and a scarf. He was looking down at me. He lend a hand towards me.

"Don't cry."

I looked away. And wiped my eyes. "It's okay.. Really." I said and got back up. I dusted my self off and rubbed my eyes.

"No its not."

I stood there frozen. "If it were you wouldn't be crying" I sighed. "It's not my fault.." I said and looked to the side. He smiled and held his hand in front of me.

"I'm natsu dragneel." He said and gave me a toothy grin. I grabbed it and shook his hand slowly. "I'm..Lucy heartfilia" he kept smiling.

I let go and started walking back. He looked at me strangley. "Is that it?" He asked me. I was about to say something but I stopped walking.

I heard panting and someone stop in front of me. It was erza. She looked like she was panicked. She breathed out in relief when she seen me.

"where were you?" She grabbed my shoulders. She started breathing in hard. She looked over my shoulders.

"Natsu?"

I looked back. The 'natsu' guys face brightened up. "Erza!" He ran towards us. He hugged erza. She hit him in the head.

"Idiot!"

"Ow! What the-" she started barking at him. "You should've told me you were with Lucy! I've been searching everywhere for her!"

"Yeah its nice to see you too"

I laughed at them. They looked at me as if I were from a different planet. I kept on laughing. "What's so funny?" He asked me.

"Nothing" I said and wiped my eyes. Erza smiled at me. "So I see you've met." I nodded as natsu did too. "Yeah we did. But she was crying just now" I gave him a look.

"You were crying again?" She asked me. I sighed. Natsu looked at me again. But I looked away.

"Yeah.." Erza sighed. "What did they do now?" She asked me. "They?" Natsu interrupted. But we ignored him. "Same thing. They put those notes in my locker again"

She clutched her fist. She turned and stomped away. I panicked and grabbed her shoulders. "Don't erza you'll make it worse!"

"I warned them already! Obviously they didn't get the memo. So I'm going to go and give it back!"

I hugged erza from behind to stop her. She stopped struggling and sighed.

"Who are 'they'?"

We turned and looked at natsu. He looked confused. We looked at each other. "Lucy's-" I cut off erza. "Nobody." I said.

He nodded and smiled. "I have to go back inside guys. Sorry, I just came out here to come find Lucy" she smiled and went inside. She waved before she shut the door.

A silence grew around us.

"So.. Besides crying. What else do you like to do?"

Well now Lucy finally met natsu. I was going to make them meet in highschool. But scratch that idea.

Please enjoy and review!
