Chapter 3

We were backstage, and Levy and Erza were in the audience. I peeked in between the curtains to see Erza and Levy in the front row seats. I laughed. They defintely didn't want to miss this, did they?

"U-um, Lucy?" I heard a voice squeak behind me. I turn around to see Juvia Dressed in an black dress that touched the floor, with her hair done in a bun.

"You look beautiful, Juvia!" I exclaim. I frown at my nurse's outfit. I can be a bit picky when it come to fashion.

"Um.. Juvia thinks it's a bit too....revealing..." She said, covering up her chest.

I laughed. "For goodness sake Juvia! Ok, ok- I got it. Pretend Gray is in the audience or something." I tried.

Juvia bit her lip. "What if Juvia is actually a bad singer?"

"Oh don't worry about it!" I assured her. "You'll be fine!!"

"Juvia!!!" someone called from the back. "We need to get your makeup done!!"

I pushed her towards the voice, and took a seat. The year was almost ending, and I'm excited to get out of college for a while. What I'm not happy about is where I have to go. Unlike Levy, Juvia, and Erza, I had a family to go back to. You'd think that was nice, but it's not. Having a strict father, living in a rich family.... I want to go somewhere else. I wished my mother was here.

Before I know it, the play starts. I watch as Juvia stumbles on to the stage. I gasp. She's gorgeous. Probably prettier than Juliet herself!

I squint and see Levy recording. Erza smirked and brought out her phone, and called someone. I saw her point the camera to Juvia, and burst into laughter. 

She was showing Juvia to someone? 

Who?

Just then Juvia began to speak.

"Two house holds, both alike in dignity

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene

From ancient grudge break to mutiny..."

I gave her a thumbs up, and I got ready to get on stage.

"Now, by my maidenhead," I said proud and loud. "At twelve year old, I bade her come."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Juvia got of the stage proudly, better than she was before, as the audience applauded.

"Whew!" she said, taking out her bun. "That was long!"

"Yep!" I said, cleaning off her makeup. "See? I told you you'd do good!"

Juvia laughed nervously.

"Lucky for you," a voice said from behind. "We got another viewer.!"

I spun around, to see Erza and Levy. Erza gave her phone to Juvia.

"Uhm... Hi Juvia?" a male voice said awkwardly from the screen.

"G-Gray-Sama???"

I gasped. "You never told me that you had Gray Fullbuster's number."

"And Natsu Dragneel," Levy chimed.

"What?!"

Erza laughed nervously. "They're kinda like my brothers... They're who I talk to most of the time."

"So.. They're what you mean by brothers?"

"Yep," Erza said. 

I pushed her out the door. "You better introduce me to Natsu, you hear?"

She raised an eyebrow at me. Then her lips curved upward.

"Oh ho ho, and why is that?" She asked me.

I blushed realizing what I said.

"It's not because of that, I mean-"

"You will meet him," Erza cut in. "When the time comes."

"Wait.... Does that mean you know Wendy Marvell and Gajeel Redfox as well?"

She nodded curtly.

"Hey," I whined. "Why didn't you tell me this before?"

"Cause' I knew you had a crush on--"

"Shhhhh!" I waved my hands in the air. "Fine!"

Juvia walked out of the room, red as a tomato, as Levy gave Erza's phone back to her. 

Erza had a triumphant smile on her lips.

"You know, apparently, there's going to be a new professor next year," Levy said.

"Oh?" Juvia said. "Who?"

"Her name is Irene Belersion," Levy continued. "And she supposed to have the same hair as Erza."

Erza froze mid-step. But she then continued to walk, pulling her hood over her head.

"Hey you guys," she said, tightening her hoodie. "Do you want to spend this vacation together? I could maybe invite Natsu, Gajeel and Gray and Wendy..."

"Yes," I said immedieately, regretting it.

"Juvia would LOVE to have a vacation with Gray-Sama."

"Sure," Levy said.

I looked at Erza, maybe with a little pity, because there was no one for her.

"Wonderful," she said. "I will be planning the rooms," she continued.

"I guess so-"

"You all agree, correct?" She looked at everyone. We all nodded.

"You are not to question my actions," she growled. "You will listen to me."

We all took a step back from her. "A-aye sir," we whimpered.

She went back to herself, hiding under her hood, smiling brightly. "Wonderful!! I will be booking 4 rooms!"

"Um, shouldn't you pick two rooms? One for girls, one for boys?"

"Unfortunately, the biggest rooms hold only 4 people per room. But if you want, I can."

"Yes please, I'm okay with being a little crowded," I said.

"Ok then.."

Erza's bangs shadowed over her eyes. She took a deep breath, and walked faster, ahead.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Erza walked a little faster, so her friends couldn't see her face. They must leave immediately if they didn't want Irene to capture _______.

WOW THAT'S REALLY OBVIOUS ISN'T IT?
