3 Chapter 3: A new me

( Meanwhile )

Juvia's P.O.V :

"Juvia love are you awake yet, its almost time to leave for school!" I heard my mother shout from down stairs. I sat up in my bed and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes, I then turned to the clock on my bedside table "7:15, Oh mom its still early" I mumbled under my breath "Wait what?". Thats when reality gave me a slap through my face... why does this happen everytime we move, I some how always end up over doing it with the packing of things on the first night and then the next morning I end up to tired to wake up on time for school the next day. I quickly jolt out of bed nearly slipping on my carpet as I do. I then quickly made my way to the bathroom to freshen up although I didn't really have time to take a shower.

Once I was out of the bathroom I quickly dashed to my cupboard to get my skirt and shirt out for school. But not to long after I put my skirt on,my mom came into me room "Oh dear... You did it again didn't you?" she asked while straightening my school shirt that I had just buttoned up. I only nodded my head as a response, which only caused her to chuckle at my foolishness, "I'm sure you will manage to be on time if you hurry" she said as I got my backpack on my back. We then ran down the stairs together, my dad was already situated at the household door ready to drop me off for yet another first day of a new High school.

Once the school came into sight I was relieved, 'maybe I won't be late after' I thought to myself while fidling with the straps of my back pack that was placed on my lap.

Erza's P.O.V:

Beep, beep, beep...

I slowly open my eyes as light bright light that shines through my curtains hits my face, it giving off a redish colour to my room, my alarm was currently going off indicating that it was time for school. I turned off my alarm clock that as set on my bed side table, I slowly sit up in my bed as my hair hung from my head the few strands on top of my head standing in different directions . It took me a good five minutes to wake up properly, I then head off to my bathroom and do my usually morning routine. Once I come out of the shower I walk back into my room, my towel slitly damp from the water that was still in my hair. I headed to my cupboard get my uniform out, once I was fulling clothed I opened my curtains, letting the suns warm embace heat me up as I took my towel off of my head to dry my hair. After a good fifteen mintues of my running the towel through my hair I headed to my kitchen, I live alone in an apartment because my parents died a few years back in a car acciedent.

At the time I didn't really know anyone in my family because we hardly attended any of the family reunions thus I was driven to get myself an apartment that I could afford with the money my parents had left for me. I made myself a quick sandwich before I headed to my apartment door to put on my school bag and leave the house, but the moment I unlocked and opened my apartment door I came face to face with my best friend... Jellal Ferdendez... " Morning sunshine " he greeted me with a smirk plastered on his face " Good morning you fabulous fart " I greeted back sarcasm radiating off of the words that left my mouth. " You ready for our last year in High school? " he asked, while taking the strap of my school bag off of my shoulder " Ready as always you idiot " I said while proudly handing him my bag " Well then lock your door so we can leave you idiot" he said as he made him way halfway down the staircase the led to my apartment door.

I simply laughed and turned around to lock my apartment door. I then ran down the stairs only to see him standing on the last step with his school bag on his shoulders and mine in his left hand. " Do you think you will put us in the same class again like last year?" he asked a bit of worry in his voice.

" Honestly Jellal, do you think they would be dumb enough to put us in the same class again after what we had done last year in the Chemistry lab? " I asked him while mentally chuckling to myself at the memory of what we had done last year " Lets go before we end up being late for the first day of our senior year " he replied while shaking his head and walking off in a bit of a hurry . I slowly shrugged at his weird behaviour and start speed walking to keep up with his unusually fast pace this morning ' Oh Jellal... What could possibly be bugging you? ' I thought to myself. He's only ever been like this if there was something bothering him which was very rare because we share everything with each other .

So here I was trying to keep up with his fast pace while thinking about what could be bothering him. But that was when we reavhed the front gates of our school. ' Wow I was so busy thinking that we are at school already... Wonderful.... Just wonderful' I thought to myself while Jellal and I headed to the board which was situated in the middle of the hallway to see who's class or classes we'd be in this year .

We were currently standing next to each other I saw how he tighted his grip on my school bag, as if he was hoping for us to be in the same class again. And that was when I spotted him name and right underneath his name was ... Mine. And it was at that exact moment that I heard to bags drop to the ground.I looked over to Jellal only to be met by his arms the hugged all the air out of my body " Je-jellal c-can't br-eathe " I spoke nearly out of air as I felt him grip around me slowly loosen.
