Chapter 11 ~ First Match

So I don't know if you guys read my announcement on my communication board, but I decided to unpublish most of my stories except this one and The Bad Boy of Fairy Tail High.

The reason I'm doing this is because I'm a bit overwhelmed with having all these stories. Once I finish these two stories, I will only work on City Girl and Cowboy.

I think that working on one story at a time is easier for me.

Anyway, enough of the announcement. Let's get on to the story!

***

(Lucy's P.O.V)

It's been three weeks since Natsu and I became a secret couple. Soccer training has been hard, but because of my one on one training with him, I've improved a lot more.

We finally have our first match against another camp and I'm super hyped! Last week Makarov chose a few players from each team and had us practice all together. It turned out that Mira, Levy, Erza, Juvia, and I were all chosen. We had so much practicing and found out that we all make a good team.

Lisanna and a few of her friends were also chosen, as well as some boys.

Natsu and Coach Gray coached us during training last week and so far it went well. Although a few times, they started arguing in the middle of practice. Erza would grit her teeth and even had the courage to yell at them.

"WOULD YOU TWO STOP IT?!!" She had screamed during our second practice last week. The two coaches stopped and stared at her, too afraid to tell her off. "AREN'T YOU TWO SUPPOSED TO TEACH US? OR YOU SUCH BAD COACHES THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN FOCUS WITHOUT FIGHTING ALL THE TIME!" Breathing hard, she had stopped and glared at them.

"SORRY MA'AM!" They both had cowered and instantly stopped, looking terrified. Everyone looked at one another, while trying not to laugh. It was really funny to be honest. It's not every day, you see a camper put two coaches in their place.

From then on, they both respected Erza more and tried to keep from arguing during practice. They both smiled and agreed that she would be a good coach one day. Erza left that practice smiling and pleased with herself. She was so proud, she offered to take us girls all to town and buy us strawberry cake! However, she ended up eating it all herself.

"What are you think long about?" Mira asks, taking me out of my thoughts.

"Just about last week during practice with the whole Erza yelling thing." I tell her, after scooping some cereal into my mouth. Erza isn't listening to us, she's too busy occupied with eating her strawberry pancakes.

"That was pretty funny." She agrees.

"Poor coach Natsu and Gray." Levy says. "Every time they see her, they both cower in fear."

"That's not hard to expect though." Juvia replies, while she watches Gray talk with the female coach, Ultear at their table. "Erza is pretty scary, but Juvia knows that her Gray-Sama can take her."

"Since when did he become your Gray-Sama?" One girl at a table next to us sneers at her.

"Since the beginning of camp." Juvia gives a sweet smile and glares at the girl. A little offended by her stare, the girl turns back to her friends and flicks her hair.

"What a bitch." Juvia mutters. She glares at the girl's head once more, before turning her stare back to her beloved Gray-Sama.

We all look at one another and burst out laughing.

The team from the other camp arrived at 9:00 am right after Makarov had our team train for an hour. We watch as the director of their camp and two coaches come out of the two buses. Some campers that won't play, accompanied them.

I gasp when I see a certain red haired with two braids come out of the bus. It's the girl that I played against during our last game at my school before summer break.

"Levy, remember her?" I poke her and move my head towards the girl's direction. Levy moves her eyes where I indicated and they widen once they see who it is.

"Yeah." She frowns. "She wasn't very nice, was she?"

"No." I sigh. "I guess we have to play against her too." The girl sees us looking and smirks, seeming to realize who we are.

"Long time no see, blondie." She sneers, while she walks by with her teammates. Looking me up and down, she smiles when she sees my uniform. "Don't worry, we'll beat you this time." Laughing with her friends, she saunters off.

"That's Flare." Erza mutters and glares towards her direction. "Mira and I used to go to school with her."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah." Mira chirps in. "But don't sweat about it. We'll kick her teams ass, ok?"

"Kay." I smile and so does everyone else. "Your right, we can do this!" Giving each other a high five, we hurry up to the field to prepare for the match.

Please let it be a clean game.

After introducing the teams and camps, the referee blows the whistle. Once the game begins, it's all on us.

"Lucy, here!" Erza yells and kicks the ball towards me. I manage to capture it and juggle the ball across the field. The girl, Flare, follows me and I shiver, feeling her annoying smirk on the back of my neck.

She manages to catch up to me and we wrestle for the ball. However, she ends up getting the ball and I have to race her teammates to catch up to her.

The game goes on and we do pretty well. I end up kicking two goals. Erza kicks three, and our new camper, Gajeel makes two. When he does, I see Levy clap and I grin. She so likes him. I will definitely tease her about this later on.

Juvia almost scores a goal, but before she does, Ivan, Flare's teammate, trips her. He ends up kicking the ball across the field and into the goal. Half way through the game, we're winning, 7 to 6.

(Natsu's P.O.V)

Watching the game, I can't help but admire Lucy. She's really good at playing. I guess helping her during the passed weeks, helped her improve. But to be honest, she never needed it, she was a natural. But sometimes even star players need a little push to help their confidence.

"Go Fairy Tail!" Our campers yell, lifting their fists in excitement. We watch as Lucy scores her third goal, making it 8 to 6.

But ten minutes the other team makes two more goals. This causes a tie.

"Come on Fairy Tail! You can do this!" I shout and clap my hands. It's almost the end of the game, we got this!

Lucy ends up with the ball, three minutes until the game ends. I watch as she juggles it across the field, her legs dancing in rhythm with the ball. Her body moving in sync as she does. God, she's beautiful...like an Angel.

In the corner of my eye, I see the red head girl from the other team, run behind her. There's a small smile on her face, as if she's up to something. Lucy doesn't notice her and keeps on running. I see some of her teammates come from all sides, surrounding her. Usually in soccer that's natural, but something doesn't seem right. The smiles on their faces makes me nervous and I clench my fist.

"Lucy, watch out!" I yell. She glances at me, a confused look on her face. But it's too late, the people from the other team corner her and she jams into them.

I hear her cry as she falls onto her back, the wind knocking right out of her. I can tell from her expression that it really hurt. Everyone stands there in shock, while looking at her. But once I regain my composure, I run onto the field. Not noticing Flare make a goal a few minutes before the blow of the whistle.

"LUCY!"
