A/N: So here I am! Back with more GrayLu! And rest assured, I am NOT abandoning my other story :D so read, review, favorite/follow!
RE-WRITTEN: 09/01/14
Fairy High… A place where students from all over the world come specially to study because of its excellence and familial treatment. But was that really the entire truth? Was EVERYONE there as happy as others?
Just like any other day since the past two weeks, our blonde and beautiful yet closed away Lucy walked into through the doors of Fairy High with her petite friend Levy. Both ready for another tiring school day. It was that time of the year when guys would begin confessing to girls they liked and ask them to the annual valentine prom but it was also the year when many people had to face rejection. Lucy never liked this time of the year because it was this time of the year that just assured her that there was no great guy in this world who could possibly want a girl like her and every male on earth was just born to crush hearts.
She always kept her distance from guys and didn't want to get in a relationship – it was just that she was afraid… of rejection… of being hurt. Her first ever crush… she had liked him so much, so much that it hurt. But the day she had confessed, she was embarrassed and laughed at mercilessly. Then came her first ever boyfriend who turned out to be a cheat. It was after that day that our sweet, girly, flamboyant, talkative Lucy turned into the closed-away person she was today. It was behind the wall that she had created between herself and the rest of the world that she felt safe and behind it was where she had planned to be for the rest of her life.
Whereas in the gym of the school, a group of four guys were discussing their plans for the valentines prom.
"Natsu, you gonna ask Lisanna?" Loke asked casually while he zipped his bag and Natsu hearing his question looked up proudly,
"Of course! We've been going steady for six months now" And it was true. Natsu and Lisanna were the cutest couple of Fairy High! They had literally grown up together and it was no surprise when six months ago, Natsu decided to take the first step and since then, they've been together.
"Gray, you of course have no problems since all the girls are out to get you" Loke laughed as he said. Gray was the most wanted guy in the school! It was like every girl was a Gray fan! Loke of course had a similar reputation before he met Aries, though he was very different from Gray. Gray never took advantage of the fact that so many girls were after him and neither did he take interest in any of them; Loke on the other hand, was an outright Casanova. Now, however, he was going steady with Aries - a sweet, timid girl.
"Hey but you can't say ALL the girls" Gajeel scoffed.
"Okay all the girls who aren't taken" Loke amended.
"Naah I still don't agree. I know a girl Gray can't charm." Gajeel said haughtily. Gray upon hearing this, joint the conversation for the first time with a smirk all over his face.
"I'm not someone who's interested in girls and all this rubbish but if that's a challenge then I'll take it… only for a particular reward" He replied and bumped fists with Loke.
"Hey this is getting fun" Natsu said, getting all excited.
"OK then Fullbuster. At the cafeteria, you'll get your prey." Gajeel declared and shook hands with Gray.
Where the atmosphere was full of cheerfulness, laughter and pleasantness – this little challenge, would it turn this atmosphere upside down?
Keep reading to see how this one challenge may break hearts and mend some as well. Another bittersweet journey has just begun…
A/N: And here I am with my new story! Another GrayLu to add to the record :D I'm still gonna keep on with 'Delirium of the Secret of Life' so readers of Dotsol should rest assured and expect the update very soon! Also read my other GrayLu's: 'Mystery Lovers', 'Destined, 'Delirium of the Secret of Life'. I'll be exploring a new genre pretty soon so keep waiting for more fics ;) Thanks for the support!
My update rate would depend on which story receives more feedback (reviews/favorites/follows) so if I get more feedback for dotsol then I'll speed up the updates for that and if I get more for this story then I'll speed this one up too.
