To Love And Grow

Chapter 1

Lucy's p.o.v

I sat at the bar watching everyone in the guild doing their own thing, levy my best friend sitting down with a big pile of books next to her, Gajeel was sitting next to her playing on his guitar, Natsu and Gray where fighting in the middle of the guild, Juvia was hiding behind a pillar doing her usual stalking, Wendy was with Carla (a/n i think thats how you spell it) talking, I smiled thinking about how i have a new family one who treats me right and accepts me for me not some rich girl.

I turned around and faced the counter sighing i wish erza was here, "hey lucy are you alright" I looked up to see mira with a worried expression Mira was like a big sister she always card for everyone and was always there when anyone needed anything she also loved match making, " just a little tired is all mira " I said hoping she wouldn't pry , " okay well I'm here and what can i get you" I smiled and ordered a strawberry milkshake a few minutes later she came back and handed me my drink, I was about to take a sip of my favourite shake when I felt something hit the back of my head by something making me spill my drink on my favourite top I turned around looking at Natsu and Gray, Gray was now naked and Natsu was surrounded by fire they where throwing things at each other, I stood up walking to the boys I got half way when I was interrupted by a certain red haired mage who had a dark aura around her it was Erza

"you better shut up and fix everything right this minute" Erza said looking at the boys making the boys stop and cower in fear, "aye sir" I giggled as they hurried and cleaned everything up, I looked at Erza just seeing her, makes my heart beat faster the way she handles herself, everything about her is perfect I've been in love with her since the first time I saw her i mean who couldn't i knew she can be a devil sometimes but still thats another part to love i mean if I'm honest i was scared at first but it grew on me " someone give lucy a new shirt " I didn't know she was starring at me no wait at my chest, I looked down and saw where i had spilt my drink i blushed and quickly ran over to the mission board grabbing the closet one and ran to mira to get it accepted not even bothering about my top

"um you sure you want to take this mission Lu " Mira asked hesitating to sram the poster, i couldn't say anything so i just nodded and hoped she's stamp it right now so i could get out of here away from Erza away form all my thoughts coming into my head. I never admitted it to anyone because i mean what if they didn't except me or anything, and i know that Erza is in love with Jellal even if he tried to use her for his own gain, i grabbed the poster quickly and ran out the guild before anyone could stop me even natsu or Erza.

it wasn't until i got home i finally looked at the mission poster
