POV: Lucy

I woke up to a knock on my bedroom door.

 "Miss Lucy? Are you awake?" Spetto asked me as she poked her head in.

"I am now." I said and I tried to roll over but I stopped as soon as my back touched the bed.

"Well it's a little earlier then you're used to, I thought I'd help you this morning." Spetto offered as she stepped in and closed the door, then showed me the small box of first aid.

"That would be helpful." I said as she helped me roll over and sit up. "Thank you Spetto."

"Of course." She as she cupped the side of my face and gave me a sad smile. "Well I guess we should start, don't want you to be late to school."

"Yeah." I said agreeing with the short woman. And after a while she had finished with my back and was helping me get dressed.

"Your father sure did a number on you." Spetto said. "Did you do something to aggravate him?"

"Yeah." I said a  bit guilty, as I slipped into my shirt.

"And what was that?" Spetto asked as I carefully slipped my knee length skirt on.

"I may have lied about something." I whispered.

"What did you lie about?" Spetto asked.

"Natsu walked me home the yesterday and I said that I just met him in the town." I said as the short woman sat me down in the chair in front of my mirror and started to brush my hair.

"He walked you home?" She asked me.

"Yeah." I said in response. "And dad must have seen him walking with me and that's how that happened."

"You do know that none of what happens everyday is your fault. Right?" She asked me, wanting to make sure I knew that. I nodded.

"I  know." I said. 

'But do I?'

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

"Bye Spetto! I'll see you later!" I yelled as I waved bye to her and made my way down the path to school. It was still quite early in the morning. And Spetto also woke me up early so I could take my time getting to school. I didn't argue much, I've always been a morning person anyways.

'Hopefully I won't have to fight anyone today in Weapon and Magic Defense today.'

I thought to myself as I continued to walk down the path. Then I heard a 'thud' next to me and I looked to see Natsu was standing next to me.

"Ahhhh!" I screamed and fell backwards away from Natsu but before I could touch the ground Natsu caught me and help me stand up straight. "Thanks." I said and then I punched him in the arm and he held his shoulder. "Asshole." I said as I continued to walk down the path and I heard something.

'Did he just. . . . . ?'

I immediately looked and saw he was covering his mouth. Then he looked over at me and he stood up straight and removed his hand from his face, and it was blank.

"Did you just laugh?" I asked him and he looked away. "You did, didn't you?" I asked him and he looked up at me giving me a look that told me he was guilty.

'He did!'

I walked up to him and we stared at each other.

"Do it again?" I asked him as I smiled at him. But all he did was look away. I looked down at the ground. "That's okay" I told him and he looked at me. "I'll crack you someday." I said as I turned around and continued to walk down the path towards school.

'I know that I will.'

Natsu caught up to me and we walked side by side. After a little while I felt something touch my hand and I looked down to see Natsu was reaching for my hand, but pulled away when he realized that I noticed. I smiled and grabbed his hand and held it in mine. He looked at me and I smiled at him. His face grew red as Erza's hair and he looked away from me, and I did the same smiling to myself, not really knowing why. But not long after that we got to school and I was about to walk in, to head towards my first class. But I was stopped as I tried to pull away from Natsu's grip, but couldn't. I turned to look at him and he was looking at the ground, blushing.

'He's kinda cute when he blushes.'

I stepped up to him and lightly kissed him on the cheek. He then quickly let go of my hand, out of surprise, and I quickly took off into the building and down the hallway towards my first class, making it just in time and sat down next to Levy.

"Hey, cutting it close don't you think?" Levy asked. And all I could do was smile. "What's that smile about?"

"Oh nothing." I said, and giggled at the same time.

"Why are you so giddy?" She asked me.

"No reason." I said, lying. And I knew Levy could tell, but luckily she brushed it off. For now.

'Why did I do that?'

I questioned myself.

'I mean it's not like I didn't enjoy it. But I wonder if that will change things with us.'

I looked down at the table and lost my smile, but started smiling again when I thought about the kiss. 

'Even if it doesn't mean anything to him, I know that I enjoyed it.'
