Chapter 13: Roses Pt. 1
Lucy groaned as she found herself in the one class she didn't have with her best friends. As she slowly walked towards the classroom, she felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her torso and she sighed contently as a rush of warmth flooded her body.
"Hey love", Natsu whispered into Lucy's ear before kissing her cheek.
She found herself giggling nonsensically,"Hey Natsu. What class do you have now?"
He gasped and removed his arms from her and looked at her with a frown. "This is the one class we have alone together without those babbling hyenas and you have the audacity to tell me, you don't know what class I have now?"
"Sorry Natsu. I just have a lot on my mind. There's midterms, the Grand School Games, college applications, guild applications. You've been the one thing to help me get through all of this stress. So don't think I'd purposely forget the one class we have together".
"Awww. You're the best Luce", Natsu said while pulling her into his warm embrace. Lucy silently did a celebratory jig in her head before wrapping her arms around him.
As he placed his chin on the top of her head, his eyes bulged in realization,"Wait. We have midterms?"
"*cough,cough* Hurt *cough,cough*", Yukino said as she passed the two of them with Sting glued to her side.
Lucy let go of Natsu as she turned around to face her as she glanced at her watch. Every Wednesday when they have a schedule change, Lucy and Yukino always find each other in the same hallway at 11:45 a.m. and go through the same routine. Insult thrown followed by an offended protest then a witty remark followed by another insult then some fight talk and lastly an analysis of the taunting talk and finally reconciliation and no recollection of the fight.
"Remove the stick from your ass Yukino. Or are you PMSing? Don't think I didn't see those adult diapers you threw into the cart when we went to the supermarket yesterday", Lucy said with a grin.
Yukino stopped walking as she blushed deeply side glancing at Sting before turning around to face Lucy with an annoyed look on her face.
"Do you have no filter? What the hell man?!"
"Actually", Lucy said with a snort. "My preferred filter is on Fairychat with the butterfly crown. I find it absolutely amazing!"
"Yeah. You will really need that filter to coverup your yearly springtime allergy breakout. You deadass looked like a blob fish".
"YOU WANNA GO HOE?!" Lucy screamed.
"SURE THANG! I'LL ROCK YOUR SHIT SO HARD I'LL SEND YOU FLYING BACK TO THE MOTHERLAND!"
"OH YEA-- Wait what the fuck? Rock my shit? You wanna go into the toilet after I take my scheduled doodoo and...rock it. Is that like a new fetish of some sort? Sting you let her do this to you man? Does she lick off her fingers too? Like...".
The two girls looked at each other before laughing hysterically.
"See you later babes", Yukino said with a smile.
"See you girlfriend!" Lucy yelled back at her as they turned their backs to each other and continued on with their day.
"What in the world..." Natsu said confused as he looked at the two of them walking away as if they weren't just about to fight.
"Deal with it man", Sting said as he placed his hand on his shoulder, before running after Yukino.
Natsu shrugged his shoulders and followed Lucy into the classroom. The two of them took a seat next to each other and pulled out their books.
Mavis walked in with disheveled hair and crinkled clothes as she placed her books on her desk. Natsu gaped at the sight and nudged Lucy before she raised her eyebrows in shock.
"Oouu! Ms. Vermilion got the dirty in the janitors closet!" Lisanna shouted across the classroom.
"You must be super embarrassed right about now", Sorano added before taking a picture of her.
"You must think that shit coming out of your mouth known as words must affect Ms. Vermilion. But, they really don't because she's your superior and your elder and she deserves the very little respect and care you keep in that tiny black thing that resides in your body that is also known as a heart", Lucy retorted with a smile.
"Thank you Lucy, but watch your mouth. We're still in a classroom and I am your teacher", Mavis said kindly. She took one glance at Lisanna and Sorano and began shuffling through some papers.
"So a couple of things will happen in a few moments. First Sorano give me your phone, you can come back here and retrieve it at the end of the day. Second, Lisanna and Sorano go to Makarov's and explain to him why you're there. And the rest of us will continue as planned and watch the movie I rented for us".
"But Ms. Vermillion!!" The two of them screamed in protest and as soon as their mouths opened a fire ignited in Mavis's eyes.
"You're just playing favorites!" Sorano screamed at her accusingly.
"Yeah! That little dipshit said so many insulting things to us and you just let it go without saying anything--"
Mavis whipped her head around from the board and her pupils were no longer visible as her eyes shined golden.
"Did I stutter?! Answer me Ms. Agaria and Ms. Strauss".
"B-but. B-but..."
"B-b-but nothing. Get out of my sight immediately and if I come after class to Master Makorov's and the two of you aren't there I will take care of you two myself".
The two of them scrambled from their seats and rushed out of the classroom. A few of their minions tried following them and Mavis's head did a 360 degree turn as she glared them with dead eyes,"Where do you think you all are going. I don't remember ever letting you leave the classroom".
"Sorry Ms. Mavis but, they're our leaders and we need to always be by their sides in case they need shields or..."
Mavis cocked an eyebrow and looked at them blankly.
They sat down as fast as they stood up and Mavis returned to normal. She turned to face the rest of the class and they all backed their desks up in fear of whatever that was.
*40 MINUTES LATER*
The bell rang and it was time for lunch. As Lucy and Natsu exited the classroom the topic of the hallway chatter was about them.
"I heard from Jett who heard it from Levy who heard it from Gajeel that Natsu and Sting are planning on marking Lucy and Yukino tonight!"
"I heard that only Natsu would mark Lucy tonight. I'm pretty sure that he's going to ask her in front of everyone today at lunch".
"That makes a lot more sense considering that Sting can be such a real wuss sometimes. I heard that he needed Lucy's truth or dare confession to make him ask Yukino out".
"Well. Natsu is a dunce and he can be pretty stupid. He thought that it was good to laugh at Lucy's confession to say his. If I were her I wouldn't bother myself with--"
"DISPERSE NOW!!" Natsu roared into the crowd and in a matter of seconds the hallway was cleared out.
Lucy gaped at Natsu's flushed face as he scratched the back of his head and avoided eye contact with her.
"Natsu...what are they talking about? You and Sting want to make us your--"
"I SMELL CHINESE FOOD FOR LUNCH TODAY!! Let's go Luce!" He dashed off dragging her behind him and Lucy simply laughed.
When they reached the cafeteria things got silent as everyone began to watch Natsu in anticipation of what was going to happen next.
"LOOK AWAY!!" Natsu yelled. "YOU NOSEY BASTARDS!!"
He began to look around the cafeteria and found Gajeel who was crouching behind Levy.
"SCREWHEAD!! DON'T THINK I CAN'T SEE YOU! YOUR BIG ASS MOUTH! I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!"
Before Natsu sprung into action Sting stormed in with his face bright red and steam coming out of his ears.
"REDFOX! I'M GOING KILL YOU!"
Natsu's head whipped around,"NOT IF I KILL HIM FIRST!"
"Are the both of you idiots really fight over who's going to kill-- uh oh". Gajeel's mouth shut and everyone began to scream and scatter as their magical auras rose to a deafening rate.
"What in the blazes is going on around here?!" Master Makarov shouted as he walked into the cafeteria.
"Master!" Lucy yelled over Natsu's name calling. "It's Natsu and Sting. They're trying to kill Gajeel! You have to stop them. Levy won't ever talk to me again".
"Natsu. Sting. Calm down. This instant", Master Makarov bellowed. Sting calmed down immediately but Natsu was as mad as ever.
"I REFUSE TO GRAMPS! THAT DUMB LOONY PRICK HAD THE NERVE TO ACTUALLY TELL HIS BLABBERMOUTH OF A GIRLFRIEND WHO DECIDED TO TELL THE ENTIRE SCHOOL WHAT WAS MEANT TO BE KEPT BETWEEN FRIENDS! I DO NOT APPRECIATE THIS BETRAYAL AT ALL! THAT'S WHY HE NEEDS MY GOOD OL' FLAMING FOOT UP HIS ASS FOR HIM TO REALIZE WHAT STUPID THING HE HAS DONE".
As Nastu tried to spring in action Makarov's hand quickly turned gigantic and he sent his hand down crushing Natsu. As he lifted his hand up and it turned back to it's original size as he shook it around.
"You've been improving my boy. My hand is in excruciating pain. This school will fight our opponents not our family. Gajeel and Levy it was never your job to spread Natsu and Sting's personal information to anyone. Now return to your regularly scheduled lunch time and pretend that you didn't hear anything from these two".
"Gosh Yukino", Sting said trying to hide his embarrassment. "This is not how I wanted you to find out".
Yukino laughed,"Its alright Sting. I'll meet you tonight", she said with a wink. He smiled and kissed her cheek.
Natsu grunted as he searched his hair awkwardly,"Gosh darnit. He took my line".
"Don't worry about it Natsu. I'll still meet you". She said before ruffling his hair. He hoisted her up on his back and spun her around and she threw her back laughing care freely as she held onto Natsu. They all walked over to met their friends.
"Y'ALL ARE JUST RELATIONSHIP GOALS!! THIS IS GOING ON MY SNAP! THE GRAM! LIKE MY RECENT POST Y'ALL!!" Mira yelled causing them all to laugh.
Lisanna and Sorano turned around from their shady table with grins on their faces.
"Sorano. It's time to strike".
"Time to strike what?" She asked confused taking a slurp of her smoothie.
Lisanna rolled her eyes as she slapped her smoothie from her hand preventing her from making the slurping noise.
"We put plan "Spilt them up" into action. They won't know hit them". She said while giggling to herself.
"Lis...?" Sorano uttered nervously.
"What is it babes?" She asked before taking a bite of her salad.
"..."
Lisanna laughed,"What is it Sora? Spit it out already!"
"I don't think I want to destroy Lucy and Yukino anymore?"
"What the hell do you mean you don't want to destroy them?? What stupid shit is coming from your mouth right now??"
"Well you're happy with Bixslow. And this really cute guy is super nice to me and--"
*smack*
Sorano's mouth was open in surprise as her hand reached up to the burning print now visible on her face. She looked at Lisanna with eyes filled with fury until her face softened when she saw her on the verge of crying.
"You can't not do this with me. We need to destroy them for them stealing our boyfriends. You're the only one I have Sora. You can't just abandon me for your sister! We're best friends!--"
Sorano began to smile until it faded away after Lisanna completed her sentence. "You're like my weird guard dog, my second in command. That friend you use for emotional support and then toss them and bring them back when you need to make fun of others".
She pressed her lips into a thin line as she slowly walked away from her.
"Where are you going Sora?" Lisanna yelled after her sounding impatient.
Sorano rolled her eyes and turned around with a fake smile on her face. "Just going to meet with a teacher if you know what I mean".
Lisanna cackled,"Go get that A by riding that D girl!!" She whooped after her as she kept walking until she left the lunchroom. The truth about Sorano is that she works hard and pretends she sleeps teachers. If she had a choice she would dump Lisanna and run back to Yukino crying for her forgiveness. And yet she couldn't bring herself to leave Lisanna on her own. She became so emotionally unstable and attached to Sorano that she couldn't bring herself to leaving her.
Sorano's eyebrows furrowed as she ran down the hallway,'I must warn Yukino and Lucy! Before it is too late!' She thought as she headed into the locker room.
