I would say I was worried about Levy at this moment in time but I was more worried about Jellal. We were on a trip for Romeo and Juliet and Jellal was wondering who these well-known names were.

You would think he had heard of them before today, but no!

The play's audience is going to be completely full of students from Year 9 across the board. The coach had started off half an hour ago and we have ten minutes left until we're in central London.

Levy was worried because she had heard we were getting the seats on the second level, yeah, you guessed it.

She's scared of heights.

Levy was in the seat behind me, getting consoled by Gajeel. Jellal was next to me, I was explaining the play for him.

"If only I was there, that would have been a lot of blood..." Jellal moaned. That was typical. Jus about the blood. "But, I can't believe they actually teach things like this!" He said excitedly as he sensed what I had been thinking from my vibe.

"They teach famous books from the past-ish, some are boring and others, like this, is great," I explained to him. 

"What are we learning about next term?" He asked me.

"Of Mice and Men!" Erza said from in front of us. Natsu leant to the side of her and looked back at us. He grinned before talking with Erza in his original position.

"Does that have blood?"

"Not as much as you'd hope, someone does die at the end, though," I told him.

"I think I'm going to love English class now!" Jellal grinned. Maybe I could give him some of my old books, he could catch up easily in reading and no stranger would be able to tell he was out with the times.

The blood rushed to my ears as I heard a soft hum from the side of us. Jellal had also heard it, with his hearing and that the owner of the hum was right near us.

We instantly looked over and could see Juvia. She had her earphones on and looking out the window casually. Jellal looked about the coach, to see that most of the male students were looking right at her.

Especially Gray.

He looked at her like she was the only girl in the world. She carried on with the soft humming and her eyes flickered over to the reflection of Gray. He didn't even look away or flinch that he was caught red-handed.

I grinned at the sight, Gray was really not going to make the first move in this relationship, is he?

"Now I know it!" Jellal blurted out. He turned around to face me as fast as light to tell me his discovery.

"Off the coach! We have a 5-minute walk until we arrive at the theatre." Gramps said in a husky voice. Jellal looked irritated at the fact of what had happened. He looked so eager to tell me what he had found out only to have to grab his bag and walk out of the coach.

He couldn't even talk to me on the way there when I had lost him in the sea of students. I took this unfortunate opportunity to go to Levy. "The lights are going to dim down and you'll barely even notice!" Gajeel said to her.

He wasn't even trying to be patient with her, he was stuffing advice back and forth at her. Levy looked calmer from when I last saw her but she looked irritated at him now.

I rolled my eyes as I began to carry on to go forwards. I walked into the cinema and followed the students in my class to the screening room. The lights were still on and I could hear Levy somewhat squeal behind me. I blinked a few times at the reaction before taking a seat. To my right was Jellal and my left was Levy.

"If you're looking for Natsu, he got put over there with the other half of the class," Jellal said as he repositions my head to see the rest of my class at another section of the seats. Natsu was easy to find in the sea of hair with his own unique kind of hair.

He was also looking for someone. It was probably Juvia or some other girl. I looked back at the curtains in front of me.

"He's looking for you, moron." Jellal hissed at me. My eyes flickered back to my right and I could see Natsu grinning at the bare sight of me. My cheeks flushed red after I looked right back at the curtains. "You're so lucky werewolf blood tastes bad," He teased me.

"You're lucky I haven't kicked your pale butt yet, Edward." I said to him. It was lucky enough to have him not know of the books and movie of Twilight, meaning he wouldn't understand. I was also lucky that I said is quiet enough so that only he could hear, meaning no World War Three for us.

"Who the hell is Edward, and my name is Jellal."

"I'm so lucky you're so clueless!" I laughed at him. He scowled before looking over at the screen. "What did you want to tell me on the coach?" I asked him.

His eyes brightened by many voltages and he looked ecstatic to tell me. Jellal looked right at me, he even turned his body right around for this.

He would be great for Drama.

"Tell me already, you tease!" I poked at him. He grabbed my hand and used his thumb to point in the direction of where the other half of the class was.

"You see Juvia?" He asked me. My eyes focused on the girl with blue hair and thick glasses. Her ordinary human pale skin was fascinating and the way she had all the boys wrapped around her little finger was amazing and useful. "Have you wondered why she smelled like chlorine and the ocean?"

That question had hit me many times in the 2 weeks she had been here but I could never come to a conclusion. Being's scents consist of their species and their personality, sometimes what they bathe in. She never looks like she had gone for a dip in the pool before form time and during swimming club, the teacher had always told her she was amazing.

"Well, she's part mermaid and part siren."
