the good bad and the ugly

The school dance

*Juvia P.O.V*

"less than two hour's till the dance starts! eek! I still cant believe my darling Gray said he would be my date~" I sang getting a laugh from evergreen and Wendy "I have to agree however I'm worried about Lucy she didn't come down for dinner last night..." Minerva said getting our attention "now that you mention it gajeel did say that she hasn't come out of the study room last night and freed spent like what 5 hours trying to get her out.... something is defiantly wrong Lulu has never been like this well from what I can remember..." I say trailing off  'lulu what's wrong with you?... ' I think getting really worried "I'm sure she is fine now I hear that lisanna asked natsu to the dance... apparently he said yes so maybe that is the reason she has locked herself in the study..." Yukino said making me worry "no..." I say getting everyone's attention "what do you mean 'no'?" evergreen asked "Lulu wouldn't let a him affect her first dance... so it cant be natsu's fault I think it has something to do with an event that happened yesterday she was fine until sting and rouge took her somewhere..." I say trying to think back to that day "so you think they did something to her?..." I shake my head "no... rouge has been her friend for a while and honestly after sting saved her from natsu a while back I doubt they would do anything I'm just trying to think what could have affected her this much that she would avoid everyone but-..." I pause realising what might be wrong "but what?..." Wendy asked "Mira..." I say just above a whisper "what about Mira?" evergreen asked just as the other girls walked in "yeah what about me?..." Mira said sitting down next to me "when Lulu came back with the guys you said something to her... what did you say to her?..." I ask with worry for Lulu "all I said was that I was a little disappointed that she didn't go dress shopping with us... I didn't think it was a big deal..." 'that still doesn't make sense...' my mind kept racing "did I say so-" , "no... that wouldn't upset her... arg! I hate when she gets like this! but it's never been this bad..." Mira got a text and her face dropped "Mira?..." she dropped her phone and got up and ran out of the room "Mira?! what's wrong?..." I say running after her "Lucy isn't going to the dance because of me... Freed just told me what happened and apparently she thinks I'm mad at her because she didn't go shopping with us..." my heart sank ' do I even know my best friend anymore?...' I think as I run next to Mira getting to the study room's door where Freed and Bixlow are trying to get Lulu to open the door "come on just open the door a tiny bit so I we know you're not dead...." Bixlow said sounding worried for his cousin "Lucy... it's Mira... please open the door I'm not mad at you and I most defiantly don't hate you..." Mira said trying to get her to open the door then a thought came to my mind "back up I have a plan..." I say getting weird looks but they move anyway and I peek through the key hole (note Lucy isn't against the door cause there is no pressure against it ) I shake my head "just as expected..." I then back up "..." and break a hole in the door and open it from the inside "I will fix the door..." I say and when I open the door the window is open and low and behold a note is taped to one of the books "do I even want to know?..." I say expecting a suicide note "I can't do it I'm sorry..." I say reading the note "well... that is new..." Bixlow said not even sounding worried as if she has done this before "she will be fine by the way she did this when we were little..." he said sweat dropping .

*Levy P.O.V* 

I was panicking "I can't find it!" calm down levy I'm sure it's around here somewhere-" Erza was interrupted by a knock on the door "please don't be who I think it is..."I say opening the door only to see no one when I look down and see a box with a note "try me on..." i say reading the note aloud "what could be in it?..." i say opening the box and see the most beautiful blue dress with a gold and silver lined dress with gold heels "omg Levy that is so pretty! it looks way batter than the other dress you where going to wear and the shoes are super cute too!" jenny said eyes sparkling "while this is true who could have left it there... and why..." Erza said reading the note and her eyes went wide "oh boy.... I know this handwriting we have to go now!" we look at Erza in shock " what about the guys aren't they coming over to pick us up for the dance?..." Sorano said standing up "they just arrived... now lets make a quick detour "where?..." I say with curiosity in my voice *knock knock knock* we look out the window and see the guys at the door " Jellal said they would come here five minuets early in case we forgot something..." Erza said as we walk down stairs when we all get outside Erza pulled gajeel tot he side whispering something to him "... nah she isn't that stupid..."... "are you sure?... she did give levy that dress and the shoes she is wearing right now..." his face paled "well... that's a new one...but never the less I can text her if you're that worried..." he said opening his phone " that would be nice thank you gajeel..." he then texted someone then his face grew a pained expression "gajeel?..." I say putting a hand on his arm and I can feel him shake "gajeel... are you ok?" he just ignored me and called someone ".... come on pick up...." he said sounding worried "...finally! where are you?! everyone is so worried about you!... ok?... and?... seriously?! that's your beef?.... hey! what's that supposed to mean?..." he face palms "... ok... fine you win but if you don't show up in an hour I will hunt you down!.... be safe..." we all looked a him "I will never understand that weirdo... heh... well what are we waiting for? lets go to the dance..." he said smiling and shaking his head "are you sure we don't have to if you don't-", "just get in the car! we got a dance to go to!" he said smiling 'gajeel...' -(1 hour later)- I had goan outside for some air when I saw someone walking over to me face riddled with dried up tears "omg are you ok?!" I say rushing over to the girl "yeah... just a little scared that's all..." she said with a nervous smile "first dance?..." I say putting 2 and 2 together "yeah... my date is waiting for me but honestly i'm so scared..." she said sheepishly "yeah it can get like that... my name is Levy by the way!" I say smiling "Lucy..." she said smiling back at me "oi shrimp! where did you go?" I hear gajeel call out "over here gajeel!" I say calling out to him "uh oh..." he said as he saw who I was talking to "what?..." I say noticing the shocked looks on their faces "gajeel..."... "you have got to be kidding me! you never told me you had such a cute date to the dance?!" she said catching us off guard "you're not mad?" she smiled hitting his shoulder "why would I be?"... 'wait a sec is this his friend? the one he asked me not to talk about?' I think as I watch them talk further "wait! I knew I forgot something your date is out looking for you... I can call him if you want" gajeel said changing the subject "oh... yeah I forgot about that bit... is he mad at me?..." Lucy said her smile fading "nah... I'm not mad Bixlow explained everything" we turn to see Laxus walking over "you're not mad at me?..." Lucy said turning to face him "positive..." he said with a smile and hugged her "really?... I feel so bad about it though...", "forget about it blondie... but you have got to be kidding me right?..." Lucy just looked up at him in confusion "what do you mean?..." he just looked at gajeel then to me "how are you this dense?..." he said sweat-dropping "yeah... I thought she knew!" at this point im just standing there in confusion *bzzz* "oh!..." Lucy looked down at her phone "what's wrong?..." she turned the phone off before we could see... but her face had a small hint of sadness in it 'Lucy... what's wrong with you?...' my thoughts where interrupted by some laughter from a side door of the school gym "... oh boy no getting out of this one..."I hear gajeel mutter under his breath "... was so... fun I can't..." the voice belonged to none other than Natsu Dragneel I saw Lucy visibly sadden 'Lucy...' I then see gajeel and Laxus get ready to throw punches and then Natsu and his friends walk over "hey Levy! we where going out to dinner flame brains paying if you wanna join..." Gray said getting a glare from Natsu "I'm not scared..." we all look to Lucy who has her face to the ground "huh?..." Natsu visibly stiffens as she raises her face to his " I said I'm not scared of you anymore and I never was!... yeah I hear the whispers... you can't just expect me to just let go of what happened... you're not the only one who is hurting Natsu! you're not the only one who can't forget about it I have been going there everyday waiting for you! but all I see... it's not the same as before..." everyone froze shock filled their faces mine included as Lucy grabbed  Natsu by the arm and pulled him to the side and whispered something to him which scared him "... not...anymore... tomorrow..."...
