Day 3 of CoLu week! Online. I've had this idea for a fanfic for some time now, and this is the perfect opportunity to put it out there! Hope you enjoy!

Just a quick note! italicized words mean conversations between Lucy and Cobra through email. Just so there is no confusions.

Online

Chapter 1

Hey VenomousSnake! You have chat on? Lucy hummed as she sent the message to her online pen pal as she browsed through the Everything&More blog. Allowing a small smile to cross her lips as a message appeared within seconds of sending hers. In truth, the only reason she even got on the sight was to talk to her pen pal. He was just so interesting, witty, funny, and just someone she could confide in. Which she figured was also vice versa for him, since he told her his problems as well.

I'm on CelestialGoddess. What's going on? He typed back, causing her to give a sigh before moving her fingers across the board. Telling him about that week in college. Especially about how there was a Valentine dance coming up, and her friends were trying to set her up with every eligible boy in school. Going as far as setting her up on blind dates, all that had ended in disaster.

Ha! Sucks for you. You're probably scaring them all off with your weird behavior. He sent, causing her to pout.

-3- I am not! All of those guys clearly only want one thing, and walk when I crush it from happening. Worse part, I have another blind date in two days, and no one is even giving me details on the guy! For all I know they could be setting me up with a serial killer! She typed, giving a sigh as she rested her elbow on the table and cupped her cheek as she waited for his response. Scrolling through the website, and randomly clicking like every now and again so it looked like she wasn't just chatting with someone. Something she knew that the creator of the sight hated. The truth was, she didn't really care about any of the guys that her friends attempted to set her up with. She wasn't sure why, since most of them had been good looking, but she wanted something more than just that. If only she knew who VenomousSnake really was, or where to find him since they attended the same college, maybe there was a chance that they could get together. She had to huff and roll her eyes at that idea, no way she would be so lucky.

I guess I can understand that part. My roommate is basically forcing me to meet some chick this weekend as well. Wont tell me anything about her, and I fear that it's payback for my latest prank on him. Something tells me she's rather going to be an uptight bitch, or just an egotistic airhead. He sent, causing her to laugh and shake her head before moving her hands back to the keyboard.

Well, so far I've had nothing but perverts. Something tells me that it will be the same with this guy, or someone who is so into himself that I could probably hand him a mirror and walk away without him noticing. She sent, laughing when he sent a laughing emoji back.

Maybe I should try that with my own blind date. You know where yours is happening?

At the new cafe downtown. Suppose to meet him sometime around noon. She sent, waiting as he typed back.

Close to the time I'm suppose to meet this chick, and same place. He sent, and she was about to respond, but stopped when three dots appeared to show that he was typing something else.

xxx-xxx-xxxx She blinked at the numbers that he had sent before sending him back a question mark.

My number. Maybe if things crash with your guy and my chick, we could finally meet since we'll be in the same area. He answered, causing her to blush slightly before giving a smile.

Sounds like an idea! xxx-xxx-xxxx. She sent the message and her number, only to bite her thumb a moment later. She really shouldn't have sent her number to a stranger that she hadn't even met, but figured that they had been talking enough that it should be alright. Besides, he was the one who sent his number first. Then again, it was easy to be someone else online, whereas the truth could be that he was a serial killer.

A sudden ring from her phone caused her to jerk and look at the screen. Feeling her eyes widen slightly as she saw that VenomousSnake had sent her a text, and looking back at the website showed that he had logged off of chat. Gnawing on her bottom lip, she picked up her phone and opened the text.

Now we can chat and text without having to scroll through that damn website. She blinked at the text before giving a laugh.

And here I thought you were about to turn into Mister Stalker or something. She sent, then quickly saved his number with his computer name.

-_- I'm nothing like that. He sent back, causing her to laugh before moving from her computer to her bed. Flopping back onto the comforter, she held the phone in front of her face.

Hey, a girl can never be too careful. She sent, resting the phone against her chest before pulling it back up to look at the message he sent back.

Don't flatter yourself. Besides weren't you the one who said that you had a fierce kick? Not to mention so many people who claimed you as family? Sounds to me like you can handle yourself, and even have an army backing you up. She smiled before shaking her head.

I didn't say I had a fierce kick, I said I took kick boxing classes. Besides, it's not an army behind me...Just a small platoon. She sent, rolling onto her side as she waited for his reply. Only to blink as she looked at the digital clock beside her, giving a sigh as she saw that it was almost lights out. Meaning that if she got caught texting someone, instead of sleeping, her RA would be on her hard.

Semantics. All in all you can handle yourself from the sound of it. Anyway, gonna have to talk to you later, CelestialGoddess. Almost lights out here, and I can't risk getting in trouble. He sent, causing her to smile and give a quick reply.

Same here. Hopefully see you Friday Night! She sent, before setting her phone and placing it on her nightstand before getting up and changing into her pajamas. Looking at her phone once more and smiled before plopping back into bed and fell into a peaceful sleep.

Good night, and sweet dreams.

Cobra scowled as he entered his Chemistry class, eye narrowing on his lab partner. A blonde bombshell, that was nothing but an annoyance. Always acting cheerful and friendly to everyone, but him! Of course, that was kinda his fault since he was determined to press all of her buttons and see her flustered, only because it amused him greatly, not because he liked her or anything...Damn he was bad at lying to himself.

However, he wouldn't dare make a move on her because he was damn sure that she hated his guts. Then again, that was mainly his fault for being such a jerk to her. Giving a sigh, he continued to scowl as he mentally cursed his best friends little sister's very existence before smirking and moving up behind her. Looking over her shoulder as she pulled out her phone.

"You know there isn't suppose to be phones in class." He growled, watching with a smirk as she jumped a mile and let out a small, quiet yelp. Only to take a step back when she whirled around and glared at him.

"Damnit Cobra, stop it." She hissed, causing him to huff before taking his seat next to her. Not surprised to see that nearly everyone was looking their way, no doubt wanting to see what kind of show they would put on today.

"Deal with it Bright Eyes. There is nothing you can do about it." He stated, watching as she puffed out her cheeks and continued to glare at him, only to blink when she suddenly relaxed and smiled at him softly. Causing him to narrow his gaze at her, knowing that she was plotting something that he wouldn't like.

"You sure there isn't anything I can do about it? You do recall who my older brother is, and you do remember who my friends are. Especially a certain red headed, Erza Scaret?" She chirped, causing him to grit his teeth as a nerve twitched above his eye.

"I could care less about your older brother, since I could easily take him in a fight. As for Scarlet, why the hell did you become friends with that psycho anyway?" He asked, watching as something close to pain flashed in her eyes before she smiled again.

"She isn't a psycho! She's a great person, and even greater friend. You only think that way because she whipped you in that fight last year. Something you deserved for insulting her." She stated, causing him to still. Not ready to divulge the true secret behind that fight, and was thankful that Erza had muttered something about an insult to her afterwards.

"Whatever." He muttered, watching as something dangerous flashed in her eyes before she leveled him a cool stare.

"You're such an ass, Cobra." She stated, causing him to give a sigh. Out of all the people she had to become friends with, why were it the ones that hated him? Not that he truly cared or anything. But aside from Erza, she was also friends with Natsu, who hated him because of how he treated Lucy. Then there was Jackal, Natsu's cousin, who hated him because of the same reason. Then there was Gray, Gajeel, Levy, and quit a few more that saw her as a sister, and who knew about how he treated her. Huh, maybe he was an ass since everyone seemed to hate him for the same reason.

He blinked as his own phone buzzed in his back pocket, pulling him out of his thoughts, and discreetly pulled it out. Glancing down, he resisted the small smile that wanted to appear across his lips as he read the name CelestialGoddess on the screen. Seriously, was it bad that he liked a person that he had never met before. Sure, he knew that it wasn't smart that he was falling for someone that he didn't even know, since everything she had said could easily be a lie. However, something told him that this wasn't the case. He was wanting nothing more than to get over his weird feelings for Lucy, and this seemed like the perfect choice!

"Let me guess, another text from one of your many admirers." Lucy growled out beside him, causing him to quickly close his phone before she could even attempt to read it.

"None of your damn business, Bright Eyes." He growled back, both of them going into a glaring contest.

"Alright, enough flirting you two. Class is starting." Professor Clive stated, walking in and tapping both of them on the shoulder. Cobra watched as Lucy gave a huff before turning her attention forward. Cobra looked away from her, pulling out his phone again and quickly read the text that he received.

Wish I had a class with you. At least then I wouldn't be stuck alone with some jerk as a class partner. He gave a hum, before typing a quick message and looking forward.

I understand the feeling completely.

There is chapter one! Hope you liked it, and I know its a cliche, but who cares!
