Avoiding The Question

No one's P.O.V

Lucy and Natsu were the first ones in class. Lucy dragged Natsu to the far back of the room and sat in the far back corner.

"Is this where you normally sit?" Natsu asked, taking a seat next to Lucy who was staring off in space.

"In all of my classes, I sit in the far back corner. No where else." She said grimly. Natsu became confused, but was easily distracted by the crowd of people that flooded into the class. Natsu was secretly excited, for he was finally out of His prison cell! But he still felt guilty. Lucy, doing all of this for him, and he had nothing to give in return.

"Alright class! Settle down! We have a new student joining us! Could you please come and introduce yourself?" The teacher announced, looking directly at Natsu. Natsu looked over at Lucy for instructions on what to do, but she wasn't paying any attention.

"All you have to do is say your name and one thing about yourself." The teacher said, seeing the confused look on his face. Natsu slowly rose from his chair and walked to the front of the class.

"I'm Natsu Dragneel and I am..." He looked aver at Lucy and saw a sign on his desk, telling him what to say.

"I am from out of town." He said, reading what she had written. He sat back in his seat next to Lucy and she smiled. She noticed some girls snickering at her, so she quickly turned around and started drawing in her journal, not listening to the lesson at all, where as Natsu was trying not to miss a single second of it.

The bell rang, ending their first class. They continued on and Natsu introduced himself with the same single sentence.

When it was lunch, Lucy quickly got her lunch, and Natsu got his.

"I eat on the roof with my friends. You want to meet them, or not yet?" Lucy asked, eager to leave before the hallways became more crowded with people.

"Not yet. Maybe tomorrow." Natsu said, not liking the idea of talking to other people one on one. Lucy began hesitating, but spoke.

"OK... OK, follow me. Hurry up!" She said, holding her tray of food and leading Natsu to the empty music room.

They for in and Lucy quickly locked the doors and closed all of the blinds on the windows.

"Why are you locking us in here?" Natsu asked, taking a bite of the food he got, living the new, non prison food, taste.

"I'm hiding, if you want me to be honest." Lucy said, sitting next to Natsu.

"From who? And explain those rumors I've heard about you." Natsu said, pushing his tray away.

"Nothing important. So, do you like school so far?" She said, ignoring his question.

"I hate introducing myself. It's so annoying.!" He complained.

"Well, you have to do that five more times for the last five classes we have."

"UGH! I love being here and all, but it's so hard to speak nicely to other people!"

"You speak nicely to me. How am I different?"

"You are easy to talk openly to. You have given me almost everything that I've lost. I respect you. As for other people, like the guards and people I don't know, I don't like them. That's why I didn't want to meet your friends yet." Natsu explained, taking back his tray and taking another bite.

"Understandable. Anyways-"

Lucy froze.

"What-" Natsu began, but Lucy covered his mouth, gilding a finger to her lips, telling him to be quiet. He was confused, but stayed silent. They sat and listened, and high heel foot steps could be heard from outside the doors.

"She wasn't on the roof with her loser friends. So where is she?!" They heard a voice say. A voice all too familiar to Lucy.

"Is she in the music room?" Another voice asked.

"Even is she was, the doors are locked and the teacher hates it when people are in there during lunch. She's just be setting herself up for detention." A third voice said.

Natsu looked shocked at Lucy, but she ignored him.

"Come on girls! She'll defiantly be in our next class. If she's got a new hottie following her around, she's dead meat!" The first voice snarled, their high heels clicking away.

Lucy let out a deep breath, looking relieved.

"Who was that?" Natsu asked, still whispering.

"No one important. Hurry and finish eating. The bell's about ring."
