Hidden princess

Wednesday arrives

...Lucy's POV...

It's Wednesday and everything's calmed down since last Friday. I told Levy about my magic on Sunday evening. I still remember her reaction.

...Time skip last Sunday...

"What! You're kidding lu-chan? So you're really a celestial wizard! Oh my God that's crazy I thought they were all wiped out since you know all the golden keys were collected, by King Jude Heartfilia. And he used them for awful crimes before he was over thrown and killed the queen and all"

Well that hurt. Considering I'm his daughter he never bothered to tell anyone about. But she was right. I took a deep breath and let it out. Clearing my mind.

"Yeah and he went under ground with his only daughter and all his money after the court found him guilt and he also changed his last name so no one would find out his horrible secret."

I chimed in after her. Levy gaped at me quite surprised.

"How..? How do you know that Lucy?"

"Lucy Heartfilia. Actually."

She shook her head in surprise.

"Y-you mean. Y-y-you're the old kings daughter."

I shook my head yes than stared at my feet. I was too afraid to face her.

"Please. Le-levy. Don't judge me by my past. I never asked for this."

I fell to my knees and cried fully. I didn't ask for it. I didn't want this last name always hiding my identity and running from others. No I was tired of hiding.
Expecting her to run out of my room or even scream, it seemed like a forever silence than I felt a hug. And Levy sobbing with me.

"Oh Lucy don't cry please! I won't judge you I swear. You've shown me so much kindness and you're so nice. Plus what could you gain from being here. You couldn't get much off a private school!"

Those words were amazing to my ears.

..Time skip to normal..

I walked to lunch in a nervous mess on the verge of a mental break down. I grabbed a bottle of water and sat down to nervous to eat anything. All I could hear were the chattering of everyone else around me, everyone's voices bouncing inside my head, just when I was about to scream from madness I felt a warm arm slide around my shoulders. I looked up from my mental stupor to see Natsu smiling down at me. I let my head fall back to my depressed state.

"Hey there luce you look pale. You feelin' alright?"

I didn't answer afraid my voice would crack from all the sress I was under.

"Luce?"

I felt his hand slide under my chin and lift my face to look at him. He scrutinized me for a minute before placing some lose strands of hair behind my ear. I blushed. Damn this boy doesn't know what boundaries are.

"Hey. Don't look so lost, what's wrong? You can tell me. I won't say anything."

If only I could be as care free as you are Natsu. Must feel nice to feel free to be who you really are.

"You won't understand Natsu."

"Huh? Why not? You callin' me dumb?"

I laughed at that.
"No Natsu you'll see trust me. Just wait till Mirajane's class."
He looked confused but let it go. He handed me a slice of pizza, and I just looked at him.

"You gotta eat luce. It's not healthy to starve yourself. Plus I got too much anyways."

I smiled at Natsu such a caring person but would he still talk to me after today?

Lunch flew by and now here we all stand leaving where we left off last Tuesday, master was here standing in the corner earning comments from my fellow students. Mira looked at me excitedly as she called me forward. I stood in center unhooking my key satchel I pulled one out not looking first. It was my spirit Virgo. Well at least it was a safe spirit. I could hear her voice vibrating from the key.
I am ready hime. We'll change the thought about you're last name my dear princess.
I smiled slightly and shouted.

"I beckon you to my side at once pass through the gates. Virgo!" As I did my key lit up and than popped up Virgo smiling. "Hello princess." I waved and than looked down, not wishing to meet the eyes of my peers.

I could hear the roar of voices getting louder than a shout.

'Oh my God she a celestial wizard! Someone detain her! I bet she's a Heartfilia! What are we going to do help!"
It was Lisanna. Everyone turned to her. And gaped as she screamed in horror, they all stared at me like a freak. Like everyone always does. I turned and ran out the door. I didn't stop till I fell outside and picked myself up before hiding behind a tree crying uncontrollably. My knees hurt where I scraped them and I cut my hand open pretty badly but at the moment I didn't care. Everything was over. Fairytale turned out to be just like every other school, I should of listened to my father and never of tried to pursue magic anymore than I had already dug myself into. I was so distracted that I hadn't noticed Natsu walking up behind me, when he placed a hand on my shoulder I screamed and jumped back. Natsu looked at me worried.

"Lucy. I-I won't hurt you honest. I'm sorry about what happened back there. I don't know what came over Lisanna."

I couldn't talk through my dry mouth.

"Please don't be scared. Masters giving her a good talking too. Don't worry."

Natsu looked so sad. I didn't know why and at the moment I also didn't care either.

"C'mon luce let's go back."

He reached for my hand and I cringed away.

"No."

"Huh? Why not? Luce. Everything's okay I swear."

"NO IT'S NOT! YOU SAW HOW EVERYONE LOOKED AT ME! EVEN YOU LOOKED AT ME LIKE I WAS A BAD PERSON.... like.. l-like I was a... a freak! A murder a con artist."

I was sobbing again when Natsu pulled me into a hug and wouldn't let go no matter how hard I faught. I just gave up and cried into his shoulder no longer caring. He held me forever it seemed but neither of us complained so we sat there listening to my sobs till they became hiccups, then Natsu laughed shaking my whole body.

"Your hiccups are so adorable luce. Please come back inside. You feel really cold and I forgot my jacket today. Plus your hands bleeding pretty bad."

I still shook my head no.

"I can't Natsu everyone Hates me now. "

"Nah I mean I was a little surprised that's all and kinda hurt you didn't just tell me sooner. I thought we were friends luce."

I looked up in surprise. Natsu grinned than kissed my forehead making me blush.

"No one hates you and they're all out looking for you right now. I've heard about your dad, and not one of the stories are about you. No one even knew he had a daughter besides if you were going to do something bad wouldn't you have already done it by now? No one hates you promise. Now let's go. Miss Lucy Heartfilia, everyone wants to talk to you."

He stood up taking me with him letting me go but keeping hold of my hand dragging me beside him. Have I been wrong this whole time? Maybe not everyone's like the people in my past. Maybe I should just forget my past now... but as of this moment I'm going to just let Natsu's warm hand comfort me.

Geezer this was such a long chapter but now that Lucy's Magic is out of the way let the drama begin!!!! I'm already started on ideas I can't wait to see where this story leads! Thanks to everyone who's reading so far!
