Chapter 2
Meredy pov
"You think she is going to be okay?" Gray and I walked alongside each other as we made our way down the hall.
"I'll be more worried about us right now." I said as I saw who was headed our way. I felt Gray tense up.
The three came and stopped in front of us.
"Gray, changing girl already?" The blonde spoke.
"Wonder what juvia would think about this." Levy said with a smirk on her face.
"Oh wait, she isn't here anymore." Erza faked ignorance. The three of them burst out laughing.
My hands curled up into fist but I bit down on my tongue. I could feel Gray doing the same.
"What? Do you have something to say?" Lucy leaned in closer with a teasing smile.
"That's what I thought." Levy spat. All of them flipped their hair and walked away, acting like they're some models on the runway.
I relaxed myself, sighing a breath of relief as I did.
I turned to Gray who was still tenses.
I placed my hand on his shoulder and gave it a bit if a squeeze. It took a while but he finally calmed down.
"I need to use the bathroom." He said, his voice shaking.
Just as he was about to take a step I grabbed his wrist. He looked back, tears in his eyes mixed with a little surprise.
I shook my head "You can't do it. Think about her. What she worked so hard to stop you from. Are you really going to go back to that?" I stared into his eyes.
He bit his lip and took a deep breath "You're right."
I smiled, that's all I could do without having the tears fall.
"Let's go to class." Gray said softly. I nodded. We carried on the way without any talk.
The mire I thought about them in class the sadness turned into anger. And by the end of the lesson, I had brewed up a brilliant plan to get back at them.
Gray Pov
"So, now that our school is over. Let's think about Wendy's." I suggested as we walked out of the school.
"Maybe we should send her to a special school. Maybe she is feeling left out beimg in a normal school." Meredy stated.
I thought about it. "Maybe you're right. Why don't we go consult a teacher from her school to get more advice?"
"Why don't you do that and I go back?" She smiled.
"Hey! You're leaving me with all the work?"
She shrugged "Someone has to be there for Wendy. I'm afraid she'll do something stupid."
I nodded. "Alright then."
"You don't do anything stupid either." She warned me as we headed the opposite direction to our different location. I nodded
I walked my way to Wendy's current middle school.
"Can I help you?" The staff asked, puzzled at why a high school boy was doing here.
"May I speak to the principal, please?"
"May I ask what for?"
"I would like to discuss about a student here. I'm currently her guardian."
"Name of the student?"
"Wendy. Wendy Lockser." (A/N hah cus she is Juvia sister she need the same last name xp)
The lady clicked her computer a few times. "Ah yes, Wendy. We've been meaning to contact you as well. Please hold on for a moment." She picked up the phone and after a short conversation, she told me that I could head into the office.
Wendy Pov
"I'm back!" Meredy's voice rung from the front door. I bounced to her and gave her a tight hug. She patted my head.
I looked around "Where's Gray?"
She hesitated before answering "He had something he needed to do." I nodded. We walked to the kitchen.
"Are you hungry?" I nodded. Meredy grabbed the apron and started to cook.
"Meredy?" I asked in a small voice.
"Yeah?" She answered without looking up from the pan.
"Could you tell me more about Juvia's condition."
I saw her tense up for a moment.
She turned the fire off, turned and smiled. "Maybe next time, okay?"
She plated the food and severed it in front of me.
"Okay." I said rather reluctantly. "Next time then." I said before shoving a mouthful of food.
"Wendy!" Gray came in panting. "Tell me why you don't want to go to school." I paused my chewing, shocked.
Meredy hit Gray. "Don't force her."
Gray and Meredy sat down in front of me.
"Wendy I need you to answer this question seriously."
I swallowed, placing my fork and spoon down. "I guess I feel like I don't belong with them. They bully me just cause I can't read fast." I said sadly, tears building up in my eyes.
"Well then, I have news for you." He said with a bright smile on his face.
