Lucy's POV
I sat at the bar, Mira had just brought me my usual vanilla flavored milkshake and I was chatting with Team Natsu (I can't believe we're named after that idiot) about our next job. "We should take a S-class one." Natsu said excitedly.
"No! We're not S-class yet! Well, Erza is, but she's the only one."
"Duh, Lucy. We all passed the test on Tenroujima. We even fought Acnologia!" Natsu said in a metter-of-fact voice.
I took a sip of my milkshake and smiled happily. "Actually we never really completed the test, but whatever. If you want to take the job, take it. I'll just find another one."
"Aww, Luce, don't be like that. We're on Team Natsu! You have to come with us!"
I shrugged my shoulders and took another sip of my milkshake just as Levy burst in. "Lu-chan! Please can we go to your place? I want to talk to you." Levy sounded so sad and desperate that I nodded immediately. Natsu whined. "But Lucy, what about our job?"
"Don't worry Natsu, now you can do you S-class job, right?"
Levy's POV
Lucy lay down on her bed and patted the empty space beside it. "OK, what happened?"
I sniffled. "He rejected me." I stopped sniffling and started crying again.
"Eh!" Lucy sat up quickly. "Who?"
"Ga-ga-ga" I couldn't even say his name properly.
"Gajeel?" Lucy put her hands on her hips. "Those Dragon Slayers really should learn some manners." She looked at me and saw my expression. "Hey, hey. Don't worry about it. You're an awesome girl, billions of guys will line up for you."
I sniffled again and wiped my eyes with the back of my hand. It was nice of Lucy to try and make me feel better but I wasn't pretty. Not like Lucy.
I was short. Lucy was tall. I couldn't wear dresses like all the others in the guild (apart from Wendy) because I was flat chested. And I had a plain face.
"Mm. Lu-chan?" I said, blowing my nose.
"Mmhm? What is it?"
"You wanna get a job? I mean if you don't want to go on the S-class one with Team Natsu."
"You kidding me?" She cried jumping off the bed. "I have been wanting to get out of that one for ages! All the others are really strong, you know. I don't want to get in their way."
I smiled happily, wiping away the last of my tears. "Kay, then! Let's go!"
"Uh, Levy-chan, wait." Lucy looked serious. "You aren't still upset over Gajeel are you?"
I looked over to her, my smile spreading across my face. I didn't need him. If Gajeel was going to be like that, the so be it. "Gajeel who?" I asked.
Lucy's serious face made way for a smile.
