Chapter 4

Narrator POV:

"Ok since we have to be all calm and such, what do we do now?" Lucy said, annoyed that everyone was so damn calm.

"I dunno! What do you guys do for fun?" Liz asked looking around the table for answers.

"Pamper ourselves at spa?" Lucy said, trying to get off Liz's issue out of my mind.

"We could go to the lake?" Gray suggested

"We could train?" Erza added.

Liz thought about what her friends said, 'Well only the girl could go the spa, so training or lake? Am I stupid? Lake!'

"Guys what about the lake?" Liz asked everyone, once everyone agreed Liz wondered 'Why not invite everyone to the lake?' So they invited the whole guild, even Gajeel. Everyone got their swimsuits and went to the lake.

Nastu POV:

Before we all left to go to the lake I felt Liz grab my arm, "Nastu, I want to train with you. We can help each other out, like old times!" She said smiling, a smile that hasn't changed, it's the same one she used to make when we were kids.

I ran home got my swimsuit and Happy got his inflatable tube and floaties, and we were ready to go. When we got to the lake, everyone was already swimming in the water. I looked for Lucy and Liz, once I spotted them, I notice Liz was wearing Lucy's white bikini which had a pink flower on the chest. Lucy was wearing her blue bikini with a gold trim. I couldn't help but to stare at Lucy, she was beautiful. Her body was perfect and her hair fell perfectly on her face.

I was knocked out of my daze by Gray who challenged me to see who could swim faster, it's on.

Liz's POV:

I was talking with Wendy in the lake, when I saw Nastu checking out Lucy. I couldn't help but to smile at the thought of my brother in love. Wendy started telling me about her magic and how she joined fairytail. I enjoyed her company but couldn't help but notice a girl with blue hair just sitting on the beach, wearing a jacket. Not only was she not in swimwear but instead of putting her feet in the water she just watched Nastu and Gray race while sighing.

I felt bad for her and felt like I should go invite her to at least dip her feet in the water. I excused myself from Wendy and headed over to the shore when I accidently bumped into someone.

"Oh I'm sorry!" I called out looking up to a face full of piercings.

"Hey! Watch where-" He stopped and just looked at me. "I tried to contact you! I swear!" He started out saying.

"Gajeel, its fine. I'm sorry about earlier I shouldn't have been so rough huh?" I say giving him a sly smile.

"Liz, I'm sorry about the past, but that is the past. So I think we should just move on from this" He said while staring at Lucy's friend Levy.

"I understand. I hope we can still be friends though, right?" I said, hoping for a yes.

"Gehe. Of course," He said while laughing that funny little laugh of his. We started to walk away when I grabbed his hand and felt Levy's eyes on me, "Gajeel, I have no place to give you relationship advice but, if I were you I'd go get her! I haven't been here a week and I know you two like each other." His face turned crimson.

After that I made way over to the beach, where Juvia was sitting. Once she saw me she tensed up. "Hi Juvia." I said as I sat down with her.

"Hello," she said quietly.

"I hate to see you here alone, why don't you come in the water?" Once the words came out of my mouth I saw the surprise on Juvia's face.

"You want Juvia to swim with you?"

"Yes!" I yelled pulling her so she stood up, "Do you have your swimsuit on?" She nodded. "Then what are you waiting for?" I asked as I dragged her into the water.

The rest of the day, everyone had tons of fun! I saw Gajeel try to ask out Levy, and kept noticing Nastu and Lucy always staring at each other, without the other noticing. I had fun with everyone today, I didn't want it to end. So it didn't!

When everyone was leaving the lake, I asked Lucy if we could invite some of the girls back to the apartment, then gave her puppy dog eyes. She laughed and said ok, next thing we knew Lucy's apartment was full, with Cana, Wendy, Erza, Carla, Juvia, Levy, Lucy and I. Mira and Lisanna had to take care of Elfman, since he got a cold.

We all sat in a circle on the ground.

"How do you like the guild, Liz?" Wendy asked with a huge smile on her face.

"I love it! You guys are awesome! It must be nice, knowing you have a group of people, who have your back," I said smiling a sad smile.

"What are you talking about you are one of us now, right?" Levy said with concern written on her face.

"I hope so," I mumbled. Lucy being able to read me, changed the subject, "So Levy what was with Gajeel today?" Levy turned bright red, "Oh nothing! He seemed really nervous then asked me if I wanted to go on a mission together, then got into a fight with Nastu,"

"Levy likes Gajeel! Levy likes Gajeel!" Lucy said laughing.

"I do not!" Levy said feeling her face turn a darker shade of red.

"Levy, Gajeel is a really nice guy. He really likes you, he just doesn't completely understand how to show it, it's a huge reason why he insults you so much," I told Levy trying to help a relationship happen.

"How do you know so much about Gajeel? You have only been here a day? And how did you knew he insulted me?" Levy asked confused.

"Oh, well you, Gajeel were really close friends awhile back and I know how he acts. Also I didn't have to know either of you very long to know you both like each other," As I talked everyone nodded their heads and Lucy added, "Yes, very close friends,"

Levy didn't like being the center of attention this long, everyone was staring at her, "What about Lucy and Nastu?" she said.

Everyone stopped, and Lucy turned as red as Erza's hair.

"Nastu? No! He is just a close friend!" Everyone rolled their eyes, "Come on, of course we are close without him I wouldn't have joined the guild!" Lucy said trying to deny her love for Nastu.

"What if we all go around the circle and say who we like instead of everyone calling people out?" Everyone looked at me like I was crazy, "Hey, what happens in Lucy's room stays in Lucy's room, ok?" The girls eventually nodded.

"Juvia why don't you start?" I asked.

She blush then went into a daze while answering, "Gray-sama!"

"I don't like anyone, except you," Cana said while kissing her booze.

"I liked a guy named, Jellal." Erza whispered with her face red.

"I don't need to like anyone when I have Wendy!" Carla said proud.

"I think Romeo is cute," Wendy mumbled, playing with her hair.

"Fine! I may or may not like Gajeel," Levy said, while hiding her face.

"Nastu is a close friend," Lucy answered, looking upset that those word were coming out of her mouth.

"Now was that so hard?" I said to everyone, smiling.

"Wait, what about you?" Levy said.

"Yeah you made us tell! What about you?" Erza said, looking stern.

"Ummm, I guess Gray is kind of," Before I could finish, I heard Lucy's window open, and Nastu, Happy and Gray climbed in.

"What about me?" Gray asked. I blushed, then wondered, "What are you guys doing here? And why through the window?" As I said that I noticed none of the other girls were fazed by this.

"This is normal," Lucy said without blinking an eye.

The boys sat down, "So whatcha doing?" Nastu asked sitting next to Lucy, all of the girl smirked at Lucy, "Yeah Lucy what were we talking about again?" Levy asked trying to hold back her laugh.

Lucy turned a bright red. Nastu looked around confused, "Were you guys talking about me?" At this point all the girls were laughing, except Lucy who was trying to disappear.
