Hey there! :D

I've decided to try something new! this story will be a Graylu Fan fiction. Just a heads up xD

Any way! I really hope you enjoy! ;D

Disclaimer! : I do not own Fairy Tail.

It was a warm crisp day, around the end of summer. Fall was coming around the corner and before i new it my dad sold our house. He told me we were moving to a place called Magnolia. He told me it was a great opportunity to make new friends, but in reality we only moved because his work was closer to the new house.

We were driving to the new destination called Home, but ill never think of it as home. My home was back at the edges of Fiore where my mother's grave is. I had so many memories there and now, we are moving to the other side of Fiore. Suddenly I felt Home sick.

Houses, cars, trees, and strangers passed by. I tried to remember the street names as best i could. There was lets see... umm...Oak street... erm.. Hakobe road.. Fairy hills Street (that street was beside the school)..Galuna road, Onibus Drive, Clover Drive, Sun street, Tuly street, and my heart skipped a beat when a small, cute little apartment complex came into view. The vehicle slowed down and fit into the tiny drive way. The street name caught my eye. Isvan Drive. Huh, Thats an odd name.

The moving truck came into view. The large white truck pulled up beside the building and a bunch of workers came out. I propped open the car door, got out, and grabbed my backpack with all my stuff to do when im bored. I have my drawing book, pencils, a novel called 'The key of the Starry Heavens', and some small snacks meant for the drive here, but I wasn't hungry.

I found a spot to sit under a tiny tree. It was hot out, and the shade the small tree gave was just enough satisfy. Every thing here was so small and cheap, compared to my old place. I guess it was necessary. I looked around the area and noticed someone walking out of their house on the opposite side of the street. A boy that looked around my age. He was wearing a black hoodie and jeans that had a chain dangling from them. His shoes were white and had a hole on his right foot. For a moment I saw his face when he glanced at all the commotion going on around my new home. I noticed his raven-colored hair. Then his beautiful, Dark Blue eyes made his way to find me, sitting beneath a tree with the worst hair possible because it was a rush to get out of the house and load everything onto the truck. I probably looked like a mess. It felt like he was staring at me for the longest time, but it was probably only 3 seconds before he turned around to face another white haired kid yelling at him from inside his house. Are they Brothers? I could clearly hear them from here.

"Gray! Where are you going!" The boy yelled. He looked a tad bit older then the other boy.

"Shut Up Lyon! I can go where I want and you can't stop me, alright?" The raven teen shot back.

"You are going to pick a damned fight with Natsu again aren't you!" His face looked concerned for the younger one.

"So what if I am! That Bastard called me a fucking princess the other day! Ill make him eat his own words." and before Lyon could answer, Gray whipped around and walked towards the school. Lyon just slammed the door behind him.

"So his name is Gray, huh?" I mumbled to my self. This got me Interested. Who was Natsu? Is there really going to be a fight? School is tomorrow, couldn't they settle it then? " I know!" I shot up and ran over to my dad who was helping some guy carry a sofa into the house. I waved him over.

"What is it?" He grunted.

"Well I was wondering If I could go check out the school. Can I?" I asked politely. To be honest I dont really like my dad. He is always obsessed with his job and never spends time with me.

"I guess, but be back before dark, and don't do anything dangerous. Ok?"

"Yes, I promise." I forced a smile at him and under my breathe i mumbled, "Not."

I must admit i almost got lost. These roads and street names are all so new to me, but I was excited. I've never witnessed a school fight before. I wonder what its like. As I turned the corner i saw the school, it was a fairly short walk here. I saw three cars, a couple peddle bikes a few skate boards. This many people came to watch? Maybe i should go home. No! Ill just keep my distance and stay out of site. I crept around to see the back side of the school. The smell of tobacco and fire crossed my nose.I tried to ignore it but it was strong. When The sight of people came into view i ducked under a conveniently placed bush and waited. I couldn't see Gray anywhere. I saw a black haired buff with piercings, Is that Natsu !? I saw 4 girls and around 6 other boys. Who is natsu and where is Gray? They were all sitting around a bonfire. It wasn't even dark out yet.

I felt a tap on my shoulder. When i turned around i felt my face turn red hot, with embarrassment. It was Gray!

"Hey there," He smirked." Your that new girl right?"

I just nodded.

"What are you doing here? You seem like the kinda girl who gets straight A's and has never done anything bad before."

"Well you see.. I kind of over heard your conversation about the fight, I wasn't stalking you or anything like that! I just..."

"That's alright! Lyon is a bit loud, He hates it when i come here." He just kept on smiling." My name is Gray, Nice to meet you."

I wanted to say ' I know ' but that would have been rude. "I am Lucy Heartfilia, It is nice to meet you too. What are you doing over here though?"

"Your so formal," He teased." I was taking a piss and when i came back, i found you."

"So, is that who you fighting." I pointed to the bulky looking guy, with long black hair. He looked like he was ready to punch some one out.

Gray just laughed. " Ha! No, he sure does look the part and talks tough but Gajeel is a real whimp especially when it comes to girls." He laughed again. "I guess you could say im fighting him but he wont last long."

"Huh?"

"Oh , right, your new." I rolled my eyes and he continued."You see I'm fighting 3 other people. It's every man for him self. Me and Natsu normally last the longest."

"Um, so who are you fighting?" When i asked this he crouched down and sat beside me.

"That guy over there is Elfman," He pointed to an obscure muscle man who looked like a university or college student, the guy had white hair and a scar along side his face. Now that I think about it, its hard to see in the dim light but Gray also has a scar above his right eye. I wonder how he got that.

"Wait, Elfman? Thats an odd name."

"Yeah, don't ask why but he likes being called that. Only his 2 sisters know his real name. Speaking of witch one of them is here today." He pointed to a Beautiful girl with white hair as well. She could be a model!" Thats Mirajane,This is her last year here. She is Graduating this year." He stated.

"Oh, so if the other one your fighting is Gajeel over there, Then who is natsu?"

"Natsu...likes to come later. We normally don't start the fight till after it gets dark."

"Oh,"I frowned. I have to be home by then.

"What? Are you not gonna stay for the big show?"

"Well you see..."

"Are you nervous." He smirked again.

"No!" I made up my mind. Im going to stay till the fight is over." Don't worry Ill stay and watch." He looked at me in surprise, but then smiled.

"Cool! But your gonna get cold over here. Why not you join us over by the fire. Besides, when it gets dark a lot of damned, blood sucking Mosquitoes come out." That sent a shiver up my spine.

"No thanks, I like this bush. Besides it smells, erm, bad over there so this is a good distance."

He just looked at me shocked for a moment then bursted out laughing.

"What!" I questioned. Gray sneered at me and said;

"Maybe if you were away from the smoking pit, that might help the stench."

"Smoking pit?"

"Oh, did you not have one at your old school?"

"No i was home schooled."

"Oh- is that why your so awkward?"

"Thats rude!"

"HaHa! sorry I didn't mean it like that. I meant the way you address people, and you know nothing about this school. Everyone knows about this school. Sorry if i offended you." At least he apologized.

"Anyway! so what is a smoking pit?"

"Oh yeah, its a place where all the people who smoke can hide from the windows of teachers and passing cars. We have 2 here and one of them is where you are sitting next to." He stood back up." Well i'm heading back," he held out his hand and glanced down at me, inviting me to come. "Wanna come? I'll introduce you to some people."

I stared at his hand, then back up at him. "O-Okay." When i reached up and grabbed his hand, I kind of wanted it to last longer but as soon as i was on my feet he let go and started walking ahead. He kept glancing back to make sure i was still following him.

"Hey Gray! What took ya so long!" A teen with orange hair and glasses waved him over and patted the chair beside him. "We started to think you got nervous and ran off!" The whole group started laughing and gray laughed too.

"Hey come on guys, Have I ever backed away from a fight?"

"True, So um who is this fine young lady." I looked around only to find that he was talking about me, i took a step back, not knowing what to do.

"Loke, come on man you have a girl, Several if i might add." Gajeel mentioned.

"Her name is Lucy, shes apparently my new neighbor and take it easy Loke, she isnt used to all this."

"Huh?" Loke was clearly confused.

"Home schooled. Seems a bit nervous if you ask me."

Gray took a seat next to Loke and a long, blue haired girl, suddenly sat on his lap.

"Gray! Juvia missed you!" Did she juts refer to herself as third person? Does Gray have a girlfriend?

"Juvia get off please. I did not miss you." Gray retorted.

"That was a bit cold." i noted.

A voice behind me spoke. "Well He has to be that direct. Juvia is very clingy and emotional when it comes to gray." It was Mira!

"Yeah, It gets annoying just watching. Haha! Poor Gray." Another voice came. "Hello lucy! My name is Cana." She had long Chocolate brown hair and was wearing a very inappropriate top, with a beer bottle in her hand.

"H-hi Cana." To be honest she looked a bit sketchy. I looked at the sky, It was starting to get dark. "Um when will the fight start?"

For a moment they all stared at me. Did I say something wrong?

A hand fell on my shoulder, it was Mira again. "Normally natsu comes a bit late, but whats the rush right? The real reason we come here is to just hang out and talk. The fight is just a bonus." I glanced around at everyone. They all seemed so friendly and nice. Mirajane was right, what is the rush. Dad can make his own dinner for a change. I smiled back.

"Your right! Im sorry."

"It's ok, here ill introduce you to everyone." Mira turned and started to point to people and name them.

"You know Gray, the girl beside him is Juvia and the guy next to them is loke. My brother over there is Elfman. Beside Elfman is Gajeel and Levy."She leaned in and whispered that they are dating. Levy had short blue hair and a head band that pined her hair back. "Beside them is Jet and Droy." Both boys had strange fashion sense,"Over there is Max," Max had almost dirty blond hair, and was quite skinny/scrawny."then you know me and Cana, too bad you don't get to meet the entire gang." She giggled. "Luxas is gone on vacation, Lisanana Isn't feeling too great, Natsu hasn't shown up yet, and its past Wendy's curfew. There is buch of other people too, but they don't like coming here so we normally see each other at school!"

"Oh wow! You guys have a lot of friends." I fantasized over them, this group is exactly what i was looking for and im even breaking a couple of my dads rules to be here! It felt great!

We talked, laughed, and talked some more. It was great, i even lost track of time before i knew it. It was Pitch black out and the only light provided was the bonfire and the street lamps.

All of a sudden I heard a booming laugh come from behind.

"HAHA! IM HERE NOW! DID YOU GUYS MISS ME?! HAHAHA!"I spun my head around to come face to face with a pink haired teen who had the same body structure as Gray.

"Geez Natsu what took ya so long, where you making you hair perfect, like the freaking princess you are." Gray Sneered.

"What did you say you Pervy Popsical!"

"Are you def?" Gray got up from his chair and started walking to him." I called you a princess what are you gonna do about it."

"Im gonna punch you out cold!"

"Oh yeah! Just try it!"

"Hey come on guys... save it for the fight please." Mira Stated.

"Why not we just start now Mira?" Cana suggested." They are already Fired up."

"Ok! Are you boys ready!"

"HELL YEAH!" Natsu and Gray said in perfect synchronization. They both turned to each other and started bickering again.

"I am! And this time, ill be Number one! because im a man!" Elfman said with pride.

"Like Hell you are, Its gonna be me!" Gajeel Stepped up. Clearly all of them were ready.

While the 4 boys were warming up, Jet, Droy, Loke,Max and Cana started to move chairs and placed there hidden stash of sticks and stones in a perfect circle close to the fire. When they finished it looked like a boxing ring.

"Ok take your places!" Mira in formed them as the boys competing made their way inside the circle. "Alright ,I will now explain the rules of the game for the newer audiences." She was looking at me and giggled." One! No weapons, that means rings, rocks, spikes on clothing, or body piercings other than the face. If a piercing comes out or is ripped off, you may not blame the other person for it." She glanced at Gajeel, who had piercings on his face. He nodded." Two! No cutting of flesh AKA scratching, If someone starts bleeding they are taken out immediately and the person who caused the wound. Three! If a person asks for mercy or gives up, No one shall hit them and they will leave the ring quietly. Four! If you exit the Ring or have been rolled / punched out, you may not go back in. Does Everyone Understand!" Mira paused and glanced around the 4 all nodded and she continued."This is a peaceful, friendly fight. If anyone get seriously hurt, we stop immediately. Good luck and Have fun!"

"Luck has nothing to do with it!" Gajeel sneered.

This time Cana stepped up and started counting down." 3...2-"

"WWWAAIIITTT!"Natsu shouted.

We all glanced around."What Natsu?"Cana asked.

"Who is this chick?" He pointed to me. Crap I forgot to introduce myself. I guess i was just too excited for this thing to start.

"Hello, My name is Lucy Heartfilia. Its nice to-"He cut me off.

"Sup."

They all started laughing. Uh-oh what did i say. Natsu stepped out of the ring and made his way to me.

"Dude, whats with the formality?" He asked. My jaw dropped, thats exactly what gray asked me!

"Well-" I was cut off again. This time by Elfman.

"Come one natsu lets get this thing over with. Be a man already!"

"Alright, alright, but enough of that 'Imma man!' crap ok? or ill knock your teeth in."Natsu threatened.

"Are we ready now?" Cana asked.

They all nodded and cana started to count down again." 3...2...1...BEGIN!" and with that the boys had started battling it out for who would be the strongest.

Elfman made the first move attacking Gray. Gray swiftly dodged and landed a blow that sent elfman flying into natsu. Natsu got taken aback by this hulk of a man that just smashed into him and nailed a punch straight to the stomach to send elfman to the ground and with that Elfman walked out. Forfeiting his match.

Gajeel just laughed, that wound up him getting distracted and being punched in the side of the face by Natsu. His eyes filled with fury, with a raging fist he punched natsu back in the gut. Then out of nowhere gray hit Gajeel with a swift kick to the ribs, forcing the wind out of him. He took a couple steps back not realizing that he stepped out of the ring by accident. Levy came up beside him, tapped him on the shoulder, and pointed to the outer line of the ring.

"DAMIT!"Gajeel yelled.

"Idiot, just take the loss already." Gray smirked as he dodged a kick from Natsu." Too slow!" Gray sent a punch flying towards natsu's face, but he dodge that as well.

"Speak for your self you Dumb ass."

"wow!" I was amazed these guys were like experts!

Levy came over and stood next to me." Trust me you haven't seen anything yet." She grinned.

"Huh?"

The fight stayed equal the whole time. First Natsu threw a punch, gray would kick, they both would dodge, then gray would punch, and natsu would kick. It was the most evenly matched fight i have ever seen!But the fight was cut short due to both of the stopping and staring at the road. They all remained silent.

"Wha-" i was cut off again by Gray and Natsu shushing me.

All of a sudden Bright red and blue lights started flashing and an alarm went of.

"Shit its the cops!" Loke panicked and poured a bucket of water over the Bonfire, Cana and Mira scrabbled the circle of sticks and stones as best and fast as they could. Then all of then split up and ran towards their homes. I was left alone in the clearing. Or so i thought. Out of no where Someone forcefully grabbed my hand and made a break for it. I ran along with them, when i looked up i noticed it was gray.

"Hey there! Sorry to grab you like that. I know a trail that leads to my house so the cops cant see us until we get home!"

"Um O-okay!" We kept on running, and to be honest i didn't care where we ran. This was fun.

"Lucy, right?"

"Huh?" I snapped out of thought."yeah! Right." He glanced back and smiled.

"Sorry Natsu kinda nailed me in the head back there when we were running from the cops. Haha! Hurt like hell. Kinda even forgot what i was doing, but its ok i punched the side of his face." He laughed again." That bastard will have a purple cheek tomorrow! Anyway! The group seemed to take a liking to you. Wanna come again next Sunday!"

"Do you guys do this every weekend?"

"Yeah! Its fun! Don't worry about the cops. Today was probably because the houses next to the school reported us for being too loud. That normally happens!"

I smiled at him" Sure! I'd love to come!"

When we arrived behind grays home i noticed the lights were still on and Lyon was on the back porch asleep on the steps probably waiting for grays return. Gray just laughed and nudged him awake. He was right. The police never knew we came this way.

"G-gray?"He jumped up. "GRAY! Where the hell have you been!"

"Good morning Lyon, did you have a nice nap." Gray avoided the question and Lyon looked at his watch.

"Where were you at 2 O'clock in the damn Morning!" His Head peered around gray to find me standing there."and who is this!"

"Hello My name is Lucy-" Once again i was cut off.

"Look Lyon I know you're a bit mad but it doesn't matter anyway, right? Besides she probably needs to get home."

Lyon just looked at me."R-right." i stuttered. "Wait, did you say it was 2am?" They both nodded." Oh-no! i need to go! Bye Gray! and thank you for tonight! It was fun!" when i glanced back i noticed Lyon glaring at him and Gray face palming. As he mumbled for me to use a different choice of words next time. When I was running across the street I heard Lyon and gray Bickering in the background.

"Hey Lyon I'm hungry, can you make me a sandwich?"

"Go make your Own Fucking sandwich and what the hell did you do to the new girl!"

"haha! ok, ok, calm down, i did nothing of what you probably think i did to her. I just introduced her to the group. By the way Why didn't you come today, Juvia asked of you."

"Really!"

"Haha! you wish! You have weird taste in women Lyon..."

I opened the door to my new home. and every thing was in boxes except dads new office. It was set up just like it was in our old home. I quietly crept upstairs to what was supposed to be my new room. Boxes were every where and i found a sleeping bag and pillow, witch i guess i have to sleep in tonight.

"Lucy heartfilia, where have you been. You promised to be home before it got dark. Last time i checked it got dark around 9pm." I turned around to see none other than my dad.

"I know dad, i'm sorr-"

"No! I don't think you do know!" he shook his head."It is 2:15 in the morning, do you mind telling me where you were?"

"I told you i was at the school-"

"Really? because when i called the cops to look for you, no one was at the school." S o it was my dad who called them, i should have known.

"they must have came when i left. I did take a detour to get here."

"Lucy, just shut up and go to bed, i can't express how angry i am with you right now!"

"Yes dad. Good night."

"I swear lucy, i don't even know what to do with you."He stormed out of the room.

I felt like crying yet i felt like the happiest person in the world right now. Gray... Damn him. I am so confused, how he made me feel and what about the rest of his friends. Was this even real? Of course this is real, If it wasn't then why do i feel so- Suddenly i felt a pain in my wrist. Ow!Gray really did pull me hard back there. So strong! I just looked at my wrist and grinned.

I wonder what tomorrow has in store for all it is the first day of public school for me...ah- oh well.

Hey! How did you like it! i had fun writing it. :D

I dont know when i will update this, I hope soon! but with school starting up again its going to be hard. Ill try though! ;D
