Chapter 7: Family

Lucy's P.O.V

I woke up to the sound of my brother attempting to play the trumpet. So I awaken from my bed and stumble over to his room grumbling curses under my breath. When I walk through his door he pulls the most sly smirk I've ever seen.

"STING!" I shout and he plays one more toot of his trumpet and that's it.
I charge at him like a bull, my eyes glaring into his soul for a moment I thought I saw him shiver. Just when I'm about to head butt him he moves to the side and I go flying into his desk.

I stand up and I see Sting rolling around on the floor in a massive laughing fit. How I do hate him sometimes..

Just then Layla, our mother walks in with her pink face mask on and let me tell you something whenever she comes in with a face mask on it shows that we have disturbed the beast.

"It was Lucy's fault." Sting exclaimed in his most angelic, innocent voice. The bad thing is I know for a fact my mother would believe him since he is a mummy's boy.
"Sting that trumpet is going in the bin. Lucy don't try beat up your poor brother" My mother says in a sweet way. Whenever she says anything like that it means 'just wait for your punishment later you two' I swear down I heard me and Sting gulp at the same time.

I was also very happy to see his trumpet in the bin, and a dent in his desk.

Wait... did she actually say 'poor' he is not poor! He is 23 he should be responsible here. Ugh.

I head downstairs and start to make breakfast for the family since its a weekend. All of a sudden my phone starts too vibrate vigoursly. "Who on earth could that be at 9:00 in the morning" I exclaim. I grab my phone and unlock it seeing loads of messages from Natsu, Erza and Gray.

Unusual.

I look at Natsus first.

Omg Lucy this is insane! It's gone viral!
-Pinkie (Natsu)

What has gone viral.. I'm so confused right now.

Lucy! Have you seen it! Literally everyone is talking about it!
-Cake Demon (Erza)

What is everyone talking about! I don't understand.

Hey Lucy I figured that you are confused so type in the schools YouTube channel and look at their recent video.
-Frosty (Gray)

Thank you Gray. The only one with common sense.

So I open the YouTube tab on my phone and type in the schools channel. I look at their subscriber count because I'm nosy. Don't judge.

WHAT THE HELL!

"16 thousand!" I scream as I see the subscriber count. Ok. I'm being serious here yesterday it was only at 256.

I look at the recent video. It's of my speech in the cafeteria. Someone must've posted it. 1.6 million views..

I scroll down to look at the comments.

Thankyou so much Lucy Heartfilia!

A friend of mine needed to here this today. Thankyou so much!

Stay strong Lucy! We love you!

Thankyou.

There were so many more. I couldn't stop smiling.
I whisper under my breath, "Who posted this?" Just then I feel someone place their head on my shoulder.

"I did little sis. I got one of your friends to film it and send it to me. Your words needed to be shared. I'm proud of you." I was crying with happiness. He is the best brother I could ever ask for. Even if we fight sometimes, I love him in the end. He is truly amazing.

"Thank you Sting. Big brother.." My voice cracks while saying it. He smiled the biggest I've ever seen.

I carry on with making bacon and eggs since I forgot. When my brother turns on the TV to the news they are actually showing the video. The newswoman is crying and the newsman is patting her back saying how inspirational it is.

Just then mother comes down the stairs smiling. "I'm proud of you both. My wonderful angels. Your father would be proud as well."

We end up in a massive hug which no one wants to let go.

I love my family. I'm so happy to be with such amazing people.

I love you all.
