You're Warm

Chapter 10: Don't be a Bully

Lucy ended up attending the rest of her classes with caution running through her system. Her eyes always on a constant look out as she sat in her classes, she learnt from Sakura that the students here would always get themselves into trouble whenever they were fed up with their boring classes.

   Fairy Tail Academy was indeed a family-like school, but at times, they could be a pain according by the crimson that happened to always be there for her...

Oh! Sakura ended up dragging Sting and Rogue along with them to school as well - Which, for your information, wasn't a sight to see when everyone was pointing to their direction in question as they muttered under their breaths why they were here and not somewhere else.  Within a day, Lucy ended up learning more than what she had expected, and she knew that it could become worse if she was caught by herself in a secluded area in the school.

Walking home with a sigh trailing behind her, she managed to convince her servants not to pick her up in an extravagant car and allowed her to walk home by herself. Since today was her first day, she really didn't want to give everyone the image of her being a spoilt little brat who couldn't stop showing off what she owned and whatnot.

  So groggily walking home to her large mansion, she quietly avoided her servants that waited for her arrival and hurriedly walked upstairs and into her room.

"Lucy-sama... Aren't you going to have a light snack before you rest?" a maid questioned as she knocked on her large oak doors.

The blonde silently slipping off her shirt where she changed into a large, over-sized t-shirt, she slipped off the other constricting clothes on her body and tiredly changed before she jumped onto her large bed. Ignoring the loud knocks coming from the maid outside, she sighed and adjusted her body into a more comfortable position which was on her side.

"Why can't they just shut up for once? They don't really care about me - They're all about the money and not for my well-being," she whispered before sighing in relief just as the knocking stopped. "See... All for the money," she told herself as she looked to the glowing curtain.

With her windows closed and covered by a thick material which was her curtain, Lucy was satisfied at the fact that she was able to shut out the world from her own. In this pitch-black world of hers, she didn't have to care about her appearance nor did she have to worry about the people around her that would always give her fake sympathetic looks.

In this world of hers, she didn't have to constantly look over her shoulder in hopes that her childhood friends would come running to her with smiles on their faces - She didn't need them. This world of hers didn't need those liars entering her comfortable space.

She thought that they'll be friends forever, but look at them. The mighty Erza breaking down after apologizing - Well that's weird because Erza never apologizes over her actions unless it to someone with a higher authority than her - Having the scarlet apologize over something that's completely unknown to her was strange.

   Lucy didn't need that. She didn't need fake apologies.

"Going back to a new school is stupid. I don't need to force my world to match theirs... I'm just there for Levy-chan. That's right, I'm only there to make her happy and no one else," she whispered before flipping herself to lay down on her back where she gripped into her soft blanket.

"The question is... Why was he there, and why was he being so cruel to me when I haven't done anything mean to him in the past?" she whispered to herself before closing her eyes.
