Chapter 8

Lucy was in such a hurry to leave she had forgotten to ask Natsu who it was that made the kid cry. She stopped walking, letting Wendy catch up with her, then continued to third period class. Lucy walked into class giving the teacher the note, so Wendy would be excused, then made sure Wendy sat near her. After she walked up to her old friend's desk and stared at them. She turned towards Levy, knowing Lisanna wouldn't want to talk to her.

"Who was the one who made the kid cry?" Lucy asked.

Levy was petrified. Was Lucy really talking to her? It was hard for her mind to process it so Lisanna answered for her.

"She saw Gajeel's face and started crying" Lisanna said.

Lucy smirked. She could understand why Wendy would reacted like that. Seeing his pierced up face and glare would scare any kid. Lucy chuckled lightly.

"You sure know how to pick'em Levy" Lucy said then walked back to her seat.

Right when Levy regained her senses she froze again. How did Lucy know she liked Gajeel? Was it that obvious?! Lisanna was also shocked. Did Lucy just talk to them? Did she just tease Levy? What they didn't know was that Lucy was tipsy thanks to her happy juice and that she had forgotten how to say things in her mind.

"Ms. Heartfilia! I assigned partners this semester and because of all your absents your partner has had to pick up your slack! Go sit down and catch up!" Ms. Kizuna yelled at Lucy.

Lucy looked to where Ms. Kizuna was pointing at and saw it was the girl Gray was scared off.

"Can't she just be my partner?" Lucy asked holding up Wendy's hand.

"NO! Now go sit down!" Ms. Kizuna yelled.

"Annoying bitch" Lucy mumbled walking up to her seat.

Her fourth period was lab so they didn't have desks but stools instead. Lucy pulled up a stool for Wendy then sat down at her own. Juvia dropped all her work and turned to Lucy.

"I know you may not like me since you don't like my friends but I could care less about that right now. Nothing is going to stop me from graduating with Gray so you better pull your act together in this class and help me pass" Juvia told Lucy.

Again Lucy felt the tingly sensation when the cold girl was talking to her. She might actually be turning gay Lucy thought then shook her head. No one's ever set her straight like that, there wasn't much she could do.

"Alright I'll do today's work to make up for the days I missed" Lucy said looking over the worksheet.

Juvia stared at the girl and watched her work. She wanted to make sure Lucy wasn't doing anything wrong. Juvia was surprised when she was doing everything correctly, Juvia didn't even know how to do some of the problems and Lucy hadn't even opened the book! Maybe she misjudged this girl. Maybe it wouldn't be completely bad if she tried to be her friend.

"Juvia" Juvia said.

"Excuse me?" Lucy said.

"My name is Juvia" Juvia repeated.

"Oh. I would tell my name but you already know it" Lucy said continuing her work.

It's not like she didn't want to know the girl, alright maybe she didn't but why not? Simple, she was in Natsu's group and Lucy didn't like them. That aside Juvia was a good student, she seemed just like her. Maybe they could be friends, maybe acquaintances.

"Lucy" Lucy said looking at Juvia.

Juvia smiled a little then said, "If you go after Gray though I will make your life a living hell."
