~The next day~
Lucy's POV:
I was laying on my bed, listening to music, when I decided to paint something new... Or maybe to make just a sketch..? I haven't really tried that... I guess I could start on one.
I put the phone in my pocket, still playing the music and headed toward my desk. I got my papers and pencils and started to think about what to make... The music really helps though... That's good to know... Maybe I should listen to music more often when drawing and painting... It is more calming and relaxing, beside just drawing and nothing else. Great!
So.. I came up with the idea of a mountain view.. Where you could see trees, a river popping out of the mountain and going all the way down to a large lake... Well, that's what I had in mind.. Now I'm not sure if it will turn out perfectly the way I have it in mind, but I can always make some changes to it..!

It took a while to kinda get an idea of what I'm doing on the paper, and I've tried to make it three times until now... And none of the three were good...

(Some time later..)
This one is perfect! A few more things, and.... Done! The ones that I previously made, or, tried to make, we're not the thing I wanted.. So I made a lot of changes to my first idea, and came up to this:

I changed the whole idea of the 'mountain view' and made it look like a crack in some mountain that lead to this waterfall

I changed the whole idea of the 'mountain view' and made it look like a crack in some mountain that lead to this waterfall... It also has vines running down to the water level, it's not the best, because I don't do too much sketch...but, for my first sketch ever, I think it's pretty good.

( Okay, so....ths photo is actually one of my drawings, I am into art and I like to sketch a lot. *obviously the opposite of Lucy in the story*... It's not the best sketch I ever made but I like it... 😊)

(Back to the story)
I was skipping trough some songs on my phone until I saw a message pop up from Natsu:
"Hey Luce! How are you? I was wondering if I could.. maybe come at your place..? If you want too, of course... "
😶😶😶😶He wants to come to my place!!!!
"Sure! I don't mind! "
"Okay! I will be there in a second! "

(A few minutes later there was a knock at the door)
Coming! Lucy opened up.
"Hey Luce! How's it going?"
"Pretty good! You? "
"I'm fine! Glad to see you!"
"Come in! I will show you around! "
"Okay! "

Author's POV:
Lucy showed Natsu her house, the only room left was her bedroom. They were heading there now.
"This is my room! " Lucy happily said.
"Wow, it's great! And you have always your paintings on the walls! That's cool! "
"Thanks! " She added.
"Is this a new one? I haven't seen it before." He points out to the freshly made sketch.
"Yup! This is my first attempt on making a sketch! I finished it before you texted me. "
"It's great! I like it! "
"Thanks!"
"You're really amazing Luce, you knew that? "
"huh?! 😶"
"*giggles* You're cute."
"Eh?!?! 😶😳"
They suddenly got close to each other, their noses almost touching...They were about to lean in for a kiss...Until Lucy's phone rang.
"Uhm.. I should answer that.. 😳😳"
"Uhh... Yeah... 😳"

"Hello? *she picked up the phone* Who is it?"
"Hello, are you Lucy Heartfilia? "
"Yes. "
"My name is Mirajane Strauss. You have been selected in an art competition that will be held in the town's centre next Sunday. You don't need to bring anything with you, we have everything you will need. You will have more information about the competition when you arrive there. "
"Thank you so much! But, may I ask, how have I been selected to this? I didn't sign up for anything. "
"That is because of your art teacher. She signed up every student in your school with such talent for art. "
"Okay! I will definitely be there! Thank you again! "
"See you soon! "

"Who was it Luce? "
"Natsuuu!!!I've been selected to an art competition next Sunday!!! *squeaks*"
"That's so cool! I'm glad! I'm 100% sure you will win! You're the best artist I know!!! "
"I don't know, but still! 😊☺😊 Our art teacher signed me in and the other students in the school that like art! "
"I told you she loved your work! "
"Ahhh! I'm so happy!!! 😊😊"
"Me too!! You will beat their asses, I'm sure! *hugs her*"
"*giggles and hugs back*"
"*giggles as well*"
"Do you really think I will win this Natsu? "
"Yep, I'm totally sure. "
