This Is Nothing Like The Book

Summary:

I would like to apologize before I even start this. If you read any of my fanfics to be honest they are really heavy reads that I get too emotionally invested in because each one of them has to do with the fact that I'm inserting things that have happened to me in real life, which is why so far both of my fanfics have been high school based, and this is the only coping method I've ever had is writing. So I apologize beforehand as you are going to dive into another heavy story. But I promise it's not dark forever.

Chapter 1: The Gangs All Here

Chapter Text

This is written from Levy's pov

Well this is a special high school for magically inclined students. Although from what I've heard that's just a fancy way to say this high school is run by guild masters to draft kids into their guilds. Well I can't wait to not get chosen for any guilds with my impressive magic.

I walked in through the front gates and see a lot of friends and a ton of strangers in wasn't until I walked further inside the building that I actually noticed who I was lookin for. Jet and Droy were standing by Natsu, Happy, and Lucy. Jet and Droy had always been then for me even though I knew they both liked me but brushed it off as nothing more than a crush and tried not to dwell on it. I felt a buzz in my back pocket. My cell phone. I grabbed it with my sweaty hand and saw it was from Droy. I opened it as I walked up to them and saw it was a picture of me walking through the front doors titled "Big first day" with a smiley face. Dork must have been waiting for a while for me. "Hey look it's Levy!" Lucy says while smiling and waving. "Hi guys! We should go pick up our class schedules I want to know what classes I or saddle with." I said gleefully. Everyone made some form of happy agreement noise or gesture so we all headed of toward the office to grab our schedules. Droy nervously grabbed my hand to hold which was fine because I've held hands with both of them before tons of times, but this time made me a little uncomfortable because I think his hand was sweating too and it felt really awkward. It wasn't until we had released hands at the office to look for our schedules that I had noticed Jet staring at us almost sadly. Which made me feel bad because I wasn't trying to upset him by not takin his feelings into consideration. 

I search for the M's until I find my name and read over my classes happily. I was a able to get all four of my elective class after all! I read over Lucy's to see we got 6 out of 8 classes together. All four mandatory and two electives. The boys had very similar schedules and included two mandatory classes with us and then several fighting classes. Then Laxus, Bickslow, Freed, and Evergreen showed up. I had 2 electives with them. Right as we were about to leave we saw Gray, Juvia, Gajeel, and Pantherlily show up. Gray and Juvia, big surprise had 7 classes together. Gray and Natsu had all classes together. Then to my surprise Gajeel and I had all 8 together. Three nerdy electives and one defense class. 

"Hey Gajeel, why did you take all those nerdy classes?" Natsu asked with a dumbfounded look on his face.

"I'M RIGHT HERE!" Lucy and I shouted at the same time.

"Well this is a drafting school for good guilds so I might as well get good credentials." He said smugly lifting one metal eyebrow. Just as he finished talking the bell rang making me realize just how nervous I was so I stepped away from everyone a few feet while extending my thumb and forefinger. 

"Calm." I said slowly waving my arm out as my solid script magic made the word appear on the ground. I Stepped over it and felt the energy flow through me as the word lit up. I turned around to see them all staring at me.

"What?" I asked quietly.

"I've never actually seen you do magic pip squeak. This whole time I thought you were lying about it. What do you call that anyways?" Laxus said rudely.

"It's solid script magic..." I say embarrassed and a little butt hurt.

"Come on Laxus if you're going to insult someone do it like a real Mage. So fight me. Grandson of Fairy Tail's master or not, I'll pound some manners into that big head of your's!" Mirajane busts through the crowd with Lisanna and Elfman. Lisanna is really nice and so is Elfman, but Mira is super rude and she fights with Erza all the time. It's honestly worse than Gray and Natsu but it is more entertaining. 

The bell rang again as a warning and we freshman all starting scurrying towards the gym. Although I was still really nervous and kept trippin over my own feet until eventually I really did fall backwards and braced to land on my ass. Only someone caught me. Probably Elfman because he's nice. 

"Watch it shrimp you're already getting on my nerves and you don't wanna be on my Actual shit-list. Let alone the fact that you're already on Laxus's tribes list." Gajeel says while pushing me upwards on my feet causing all my blue hair to fall in my face. 

"Um, I think thanks..." I say while brushing my hair back and walking a little faster. When we get to orientation we all sit down and of course listen to the worlds most boring and generic welcome speech. And then are sent off on our own to go to class, and then that's where things got interesting.
