...(XXXX)...

"Are you excited?" Levy asked, leaning in on the counter. Lucy winced at the girl's intense stare and asked, "for what?"

"Duh! For the Halloween Dance, of course!" Sometimes, Lucy couldn't believe her and this time she most definitely did not.

"Levy-chan, I hope you haven't forgotten that I have work on that day. Unless you don't want dinner on Monday, I don't think we should go. Or me at least. You go have fun!"

"Lu-chan! Can't you ask Kagura for an off-day? This is important! And I can't let you rot away in this diner, of all places!"

"How many times do I have to tell you, Levy! This is the only way we're surviving," Lucy cut off, handing an old man his spaghetti. "And yes, I'm very serious about my job in the diner, unlike you at the library."

"Jeez, can't you do this for me?" Levy pouted.

"Not the puppy-dog face,"

"Pretty please! I'll do your homework for a month!—no, I'll help you at the diner!" Levy would not quit.

"Ugh, fine." Lucy growled. Looking back at Kagura, who was yelling at Beth to hurry up on the stew, she hollered, "Boss, is it okay if I take Saturday off!" Lucy knew that Kagura will not accept off-days, unless it was for an applicable reason, and Halloween is most definitely not an applicable reason. At least for her it wasn't.

"Oh yeah! That's what I had forgotten!" Kagura mused, seriously. "All of you can have your Monday free. Sir, we're closed." Kagura turned to a customer.

Damn. "I hate it when you pout. Luck always seems to be on your side!" Lucy scowled and grabbed her jacket.

Beth, Milliana, and Sherry took their things and rushed towards Levy and Lucy. "Are you going to the dance?" Sherry said, plopping in to the seat next to Levy. "Apparently so," Lucy muttered, and in came all the clatter.

"Oh I'm going too! And you know what? I'm going as a cat! But don't I always go as a cat...hmmm, maybe I should go as a Egyptian cat or a cat musketeer?—"

"I'm going as a duck!"

"You know, I'm gonna crash that part-ayy with my lovely love love cupid's dress! It's all about the love darling!"

Lucy felt dizzy. Like she was drowning or something.

"STOP!" was all Lucy could muster. "Let's all just go home, and sleep. Shall we? Yeah, me too." She rolled her eyes in a 360 turn.

"But, don't forget, 7;00 sharp in the morning! Our apartment! We do need to go shop, don't we?" Levy just had to make it worse.

"What about Erza, Juvia and Lisanna?" Lucy asked.

"Oh, they'll be there."

...(XXXX)...

"Lucy, wake up! Oh my gosh, they've got vampire costumes on sale!"
