Mr. Popular And Ms. Popular [ NaLu ]

Ch 1 -- Determination

A girl with blonde hair walked into the cafeteria and sat at a loud table full of girls.

Almost instantly after sitting down, she sighed and placed her head on the table in frustration, gaining the attention of two of the girls on the table.

"Hey, Lu-chan, you okay?" a petite girl with curly blue hair asked the blonde, elbows propped up on the table.

"Yeah, are you okay Lucy-san?" another girl with blue hair asked. She sat next to the shorter girl and had abandoned the one sided conversation she was having with a particular white-haired girl.

The blonde looked up and smiled. "Don't worry, Levy-chan, Juvia, I'm fine. Just a bit angry."

"Angry? Why?" a redhead who sat next to the blonde joined in, obviously now interested.

She sighed again. "You guys remember Coco?"

"Coco?" Juvia said in confusion.

"Oh! That girl who loved to run?" Levy asked, pretty confident that she was correct.

"Yeah, her."

"Isn't she a grade below us?" The redhead spoke up, trying to remember the brown-haired girl.

"Yeah, she is." Lucy said, propping her elbows onto the table like her friend did.

"So, what about her?" Juvia asked.

"You guys know Natsu Dragneel, right?"

"I know Natsu!" a new voice spoke up.

The girls turned their heads to face Lisanna, the girl with the white hair and also the girl that Juvia left the conversation with.

Levy secretly rolled her eyes behind Juvia so Lisanna couldn't see.

"Oh yeah," Levy began, acting dumb, "weren't you guys childhood friends?" she already knew the answer to the question.

"Yeah, we were! Did I ever tell you guys about the time we found a cat that was dropped in blue paint?" she smiled, oblivious to the bored expressions that were now on the other girls.

"Yeah..." Levy said. "you told us yesterday."

"Did I?" Lisanna pretended to act stupid, or not, and smiled. "Oh and hey, did-"

She was interrupted by a loud voice calling her name. The girls turned their heads to see Mirajane, the genius teacher. She was only a year older than Lisanna but her smarts allowed her to complete high school and college when she was sixteen.

"Mira-nee!" Lisanna cried out happily, always joyful to see her older sister.

"Lisanna." The white-haired woman said sternly. "Please come to my office now. We have things to talk about."

Lisanna obviously did not notice the deadly aura that was being emitted from her older sister and got up immediately to follow her.

She waved goodbye to the other girls who had stayed quiet during the whole ordeal.

"So, Lucy," Erza started the conversation again, picking up where they left off. "What were you saying about Natsu?"

Lucy tensed up by the sound of his name.

"Lu-chan?" Levy spoke softly, noticing her friend's slight change in behavior. "What happened?"

"Coco fell in love with Natsu." Lucy said bluntly.

Juvia gasped. "Coco? With Natsu? Unbelievable.."

"Yeah, at first I couldn't believe it either but she told me it was true and that she was going to confess." Lucy started to explain.
