~Chapter Eleven~Salmon~

~Lucy's Pov~ 

I had gotten to my new home getting a dress from Mira for the small ball going on. We had to go into the building in our uniforms and change in the well changing rooms. As I was walking to school I noticed a homeless person near the gates. I walked over bending down getting some money out of my wallet, passing it to them. I found out it was a male with stunning red eyes and messy black hair. He looked in shock as he took the money. "Please be careful or think about moving place, the people in this school are not nice and don't understand peoples struggles" I spoke smiling as the male had a sparkle in his eyes. 

I got up as I heard an annoyed 'tisk' behind me. I turned around fast to see the my Class President. I never been this close to him before. His onyx eyes on me as my hands turned into fist. "What? Is it wrong to help others? "I asked out loud when I was meant to keep that in my head. I was then scared of what would happen but stood there, standing my ground. He only smirked walking off into the building. I turned my head waving to the unknown male heading into the school. I had to help him in some way.

I was lucky. I had gotten all of father's money and buildings that were all over the country of Fiore. Once in the the changing rooms I stayed in the corner waiting until all the other female students finished. They had left as I pulled out a box from my bag. I didn't have time to see what Mira even picked out for me. She already knew about the ball and had it ready what shocked me. I took a deep breath opening the box. Inside lay folded perfectly inside was a champagne/ golden gown folded into a square. 

I drew it out of its box and shook it out, then it revealed its true glory as I took in the beauty of it. The way the sequenced fabric flowed was elegant. If words could describe perfection, this would be it. I normally hated wearing things like this but I couldn't help but enjoy how beautiful it was. I got into the dress and had my hair down. It was wavy as I took a deep breath. "Father, I hope you are watching over us" I whispered putting my stuff into the locker that was chosen for me in the changing rooms. I headed out to the ball room to see many people dressed up fancy.

I kept to the side lines walking around as people danced, laughed and talked in groups. I just stayed on my own. I didn't really want to join in on this. Mira kinda pushed me to return and join in. It didn't help Laxus was on her side reminding me of our deal. Trying to be normal was hard. That was when I noticed the Class President looking bored with girls all around him, lust in their eyes. Sluts. I noticed that his hair was the perfect shade of salmon. I had only just noticed. He caught me looking toward me making me slowly look away and head to the garden outside.

I couldn't join this. Normal was what I promised. Balls, being all posh, that wasn't normal at all. Normal was messing around with friend and enjoying your time being young. This stuff was far from normal in my books. Father never treated me as some rich posh girl, I played in the mud with the boys. I would climb tress and rarely wear dresses. I never cared about my looks or what others thought of them. I didn't fit in here well at all. I soon sighed heading to a bench sitting down. "Lucy?" I heard Larcade's voice as I turned my head seeing him.

He was smiling toward me wearing a white suit. "Hey" I spoke with a wave, a smile growing on my face as he walked over. "You look stunning" he spoke as my face burnt up slightly as an reaction. He soon asked if I wanted to dance to with him. He was offering his hand as I wouldn't lie, I was in shock. Out of all the girls here, he picked me. I knew he had a job to protect me but he truly wanted to dance with me. Soon the girl Lily walked over hugging Larcade's arm, pulling his hand away from me. I had a feeling this would've happened.

"Larcade lets talk just the two of us!" she spoke loudly in a flirty tone as Larcade had a 'great' look on his face making me hold back a laugh. I soon told him to go with Lily making him shock as she dragged him off. I knew me dancing with him would've caused a scene. I looked up toward the sky as it was sunset. The stars just starting to show. I smiled watching. "Why not dance with him?" I heard the Class President's voice as I turned my head to see him leaning on a tree looking toward me. He was wearing a dark red and black suit.

"I would cause him trouble with others" I answered as I took a small breath. "Was you born with that salmon hair?" I soon asked as the Class President was in shock. Soon it looked as if he was interested walking over sitting next to me. "Yep, how did you know the right shade?" he soon asked as I rubbed the back of my neck. "I used to do art so I know lots of shades of different colours" I answered as he nodded closing his eyes, smirking slightly. Now I was worried. Did my question start something?

"My name is Nastu Dragneel" he spoke as the wind started to blow. Both our hairs moving along with it, as if they was dancing with the wind. With the music heard from out here it was like they was in sync with it. "Lucy Heartfilla but you most likely know that" I spoke as he chuckled nodding opening his eyes looking toward me. "You're very different to everyone else here in this stupid school" Natsu spoke as I turned my head seeing people dancing inside. The window door and glass along one side of the building was a stupid idea in my book.

Easy to break in if someone really wanted to. Along with people who peep in. "I wasn't brought up knowing I was rich, I was treated like a normal child who loved playing outside in the mud and rain" I explained as Natsu stood up offering his hand. "Then how about I show you some things us rich kids had to learn early years" he spoke as I was in more shock than when Larcade first asked. I my hand moved taking his as he pulled me onto my feet. He and I soon were dancing along with the music. 

I knew this would cause things for school tomorrow. I could feel the glares of the other girls and the shock look from most likely some girls and guys. This was going to be a problem. A small problem that just started with me asking about the salmon coloured hair.
