Droy and Jet, mouths agape at Juvia's shout across the room, watched as the four friends left the guild hall.
Mirajane reached across the bar and saved the pints that they almost poured into their laps. "Easy gentlemen," she tsked and went back to checking the glasses. "Haven't you ever seen Levy go on a date before?"
Their combined 'No!' had her hair blowing back from her face.
"If she wanted to go on a date, I would have taken her! She should have told me!"
"I don't think it works like tha…," Mirajane sighed as the two teammates immediately started to fight.
"Like she'd go anywhere alone with you! I'll take Levy out if she wants to go out"
"The hell you will!"
Mirajane just shook her head and handed PantherLily a stein as the two began to roll around the floor. "I wonder what somebody else would have to say about Levy's date tonight, hmm?" She drawled with a wink.
"Nothing. Gajeel is her friend and her teammate. Dating, according to humans, is a highly personal business. These two," he nodded at the Droy and Jet who were still trading names and smacks, "lack perspective and discipline."
"Mm-hmm. Uh-huh," she rested her elbow on the counter and raised an eyebrow at the deep-voiced cat. "So you're saying that Gajeel wouldn't care at all if Levy goes out with a man that he doesn't know." She leaned forward as Lily paused and started ticking points off of her fingers in a sing-songy voice. "He won't have an opinion if little Levy goes on a lots and lots of dates, gets a boyfriend, falls in love with this shopkeeper, gets married to him, and gives him lots of little blue-haired babies?"
Lily slowly set down his drink and frowned at Mirajane, then smirked. "You are a shrewd and devious female, Mirajane-sama. I respect that."
She put a hand to her chest and batted her lashes. "Why, thank you, PantherLily-sama. Now, shoo." She took his drink and waved a hand at the door. "Go talk to an iron dragon about...whatever."
