"Girls, could you all please refrain from sending letters around the class to Mr. Fullbuster? Surely he is Mr. popular but I do not see my class as a post office so if you would please pay attention" Evergreen, the literature teacher ordered, pointing at the heap of chits on crowded on Gray's desk, to which he seemed indifferent.
"Heartfilia, surely you are aware that I do not permit usage of cell phones in my class?" The teacher snapped crushing the chalk making some spines shiver.
"Yeah, sounds so true coming from the teacher who speaks to her boyfriend all the time whilst the class is still on" Lucy retorted as she slammed her phone shut, waiting for her detention slip. She did this very often only in hope to get away from class. She was very studious and earned excellent grades but when it came to Evergreen, she just didn't like the teacher!
"Hn. There she goes again. For a new kid, she's pretty good huh?" Gray smirked as he said this to Cana who was sitting beside him as usual.
"We may need some new seating arrangements, seeing as how people can't stop themselves from communicating with their seat mates." Evergreen snapped. She made some chits and kept them on the teacher's table, "Come on now, everyone line up here." She ordered and they all did as they were told; Lucy feeling that her detention opportunity had just escaped her.
"Alberona, you first." The teacher stated and Cana walked forward and picked a chit.
"Loke" Cana spoke out with a hint of humor in her voice and the teacher asked them to take their seats together meanwhile they both secretly high-fived. Gray smirked knowing that the teacher didn't achieve anything in the end because just as much as Cana and he spoke together, Loke and Cana had equal amount to converse.
"McGarden, I'd presume yours and Heartfilia's combo is second worst to Fullbuster and Alberona's…"
Levy stepped forward and picked a chit and gawked at it for a while – "G-Gajeel" She finally said, hesitant and the rowdy boy grinned as they both took their seats. One after the other, seats were re-arranged and finally came the turn of Lucy.
"Heartfilia and Fullbuster, looks like you two get paired by default" She said in a tone that suggested she was plain bored. Gray and Lucy glanced at each other once before walking to their seats. They had only known each other by name due to Gray's extreme popularity and Lucy's unique attitude. They sat beside each other and the class resumed.
Gray just looked out the window since luckily, he got a window seat just like he liked it then he turned to look at his new seat mate who was texting a message to someone on her phone once again – she'll never learn… he thought and he liked it that way. He never liked goody-to-shoes anyway. Moments later, the entire classroom was filled with sounds of phones ringing with alert tunes meant for text messaging.
"Heartfilia, DENTENTION!" Evergreen shouted and Lucy stood up to leave and Gray didn't miss the little smile that graced her features. She gave him a minute long glance before turning over her heels and marching out the classroom.
Gray thought about it for a moment, surely he had never seen this Heartfilia girl smile before. Either the circumstances he had met her under were never to her liking for her to smile OR she just rarely smiled. The latter made him ponder a little.
-Cafeteria, Lunch-
Gray walked towards his usual gang at their usual table in the middle of the cafeteria. They were the most happening gang and there was no doubt about it. They consisted of – Erza Scarlet, Mirajane Strauss, Jellal Fernandez and Ultear Milkovich from third year; Gray, Natsu Dragneel, Loke, Lisanna Strauss, Levy McGarden, Cana Alberona and Gajeel Redfox.
-Moments later-
"We'll just be a moment guys" Gajeel said as he nudged Gray and Loke to follow and Natsu being the excited one, tagged along.
"What's going on with them?" Jellal asked, confused; he was the only guy left on the table, not that he minded.
"Those guys always have something on so I wouldn't really give it much thought. Let's just hope they're not jumping into some more trouble." Lisanna declared, earning nods from all except Cana who was too busy sneaking alcohol again into her daily orange juice and Erza who was engrossed within her strawberry cheesecake.
Meanwhile, the same four boys who were the topic of discussion at the table, were huddled outside the library.
"So Gray, ready to back out?" Gajeel asked teasingly. Gray just slapped the back of his head getting stifled giggles from Natsu and Loke.
"Just show him the target already" Loke urged, feeling a bit anxious as to who this girl who could resist the charm of Gray Fullbuster which even Erza couldn't resist, could be.
He wouldn't have accepted this challenge at all but he had had a reward he wished to receive and that was the sole reason for him accepting this meaningless, insensitive challenge.
Gray thought back to what Gajeel had promised him,
"If you can complete this challenge… then – " Gajeel began but Gray interrupted.
"Wendy" Gray simply said and Gajeel's face hardened with disgust and rage.
"GRAY –" Gajeel almost released his outburst but this time Loke, understanding what Gray wanted, interrupted.
"I thought Gajeel Redfox never loses a bet? And he never hesitates to lay out what his opponent wants?" Loke asked and Gajeel sighed in defeat before agreeing.
"Okay. But till then, I don't want to speak of this again" Gajeel ordered.
