Hello, my weirdos!! It's so nice to see you again! I hope you guys are having fun in your lives because mine is filled with homework and school!!! *Rips hair out* Anyways, this was a pretty hectic weekend for me so I'm sorry I didn't update, but I am now!! Also I would to like to dedicate this chapter to two of arduous supporters here on Wattpad and great friends on here. Drumroll please for...  Fillycatsfish and mysterico_books who is now officially my Wattpad bestie!! YAY!! Please go follow these two amazing people!! They have been a huge part of my support for this story and actually probably the only support since they are the only ones who comment on my stories. And actually message me. So thanks you two!!

Lucy was unfortunately ripped from dreamland by a frantic Natsu who was shaking her shoulders roughly. Her eyes snapped open, and she grabbed Natsu's arms to try and stop him.

"Get up! You're gonna be late!!" he said hysterically.

"W-What?" Lucy asked, still a bit dazed.

"YOU OVERSLEPT!!" Natsu yelled.

This statement snapped Lucy straight into full consciousness as she exclaimed, "EH?!"

"Yeah! Now get your ass to the castle!!"

Lucy quickly scrambled to gather her things, Natsu helping her. Once everything was gathered Lucy immediately started running faster than she had ever run before in the direction of the palace. She didn't waste a second climbing the high wall to get into her room. She removed her floor tiles and stuffed her everything inside of it, stripping her clothes off at the same time and throwing them in their place. She threw her nightgown on and quickly replaced the tiles, only pausing in her frenzy to make sure the tiles were well placed before throwing herself into her bed. She started kicking under the covers to make it look like she had actually slept in her bed. Suddenly the door opened and Lucy froze, immediately feigning sleep. She heard Juvia's sing song voice sing, "Rise and shine, Lucy-san!!!"

Lucy turned her head towards the smiley bluenette and said, "Morning, Juvia."

Juvia's smile quickly turned into a frown as she asked in a concerned tone, "Is Lucy-san alright? You're sweating."

Lucy put her hands to her face to discover that she was indeed sweating, probably form the draining sprint back.

"Yeah, I'm just fine, don't you worry, but I can't spend the day in this state, would you mind starting up a bath for me, Juvia?"

"Of course, Lucy-san!" Juvia said as she turned and headed to the bathroom. Lucy sighed in relief and stayed in bed for a couple moments before getting up. She heard a knock on her door before the door opened and Gray walked in, flinging his shirt in a corner of the room.

"Yo, Lucy!" he greeted.

"Hi, your shirt," Lucy responded back.

"Crap," he said, scrambling to go find it.

When he finally found his shirt again, he walked up to Lucy and glanced around then room.

"Juvia's preparing the bath," she said, reading his mind.

"Oh, thanks..." he said, blushing slightly.

"My brother's so cute when he's flustered!" Lucy said, clasping her hands together.
