Fairy Tail belongs to Hiro Mashima. This story's idea was mine.
Oops, a table. Crouch. Flying mugs of beer. Right, right, left and right again. Well, at least the bar was still intact.
Easily escaping all the flying objects and mages that were involved in another one of Natsu's and Grey's routine commotion, Lucy found her beloved stool by Mirajane's neatly kept bar.
The white haired beauty couldn't help the smile that appeared on her face when she spotted her favorite stellar mage.
"Lucy-chan, it's been so long! How are you?"
"Good Mira-chan! Well, I see that nothing has changed around here..."
Sighing deeply, Mirajane started to scrub an already more than clean mug viciously, clearly trying to control her inner beast.
"Yesss" She hissed, a small forced smile made way trough clenched teeth. "Erza hasn't arrived yet and those two idiots are getting worst every day. God, I tought they were getting over it for sometime. Illusions.."
Lucy smiled nervously watching her former idol trying to control herself. Suddenly remembering why she was here, she shook her head off the rucus and turned around to find who she was looking for.
She knew Erza was out of town, she left the morning after the surprisingly agreable ( and peaceful, thank You God for that one.) dinner two weeks ago. She said that by this time she would be back, but things were bad around here and judging by Mira's behavior, the Titania was nowhere near.
So she decided to look for her small blue haired friend. Directing her eyes to the spot said mage could always be found, she found the girl she was looking for and made a quick run to her.
"Levy-chan! Long time no see!" She said while avoiding some axes that flew right behind her.
The bookworm raised from her velvet armchair, her now long hair tied in a braid. Some books fell from her lap in the process.
"Lu-chan! It's so good to see you! Wow, you're so...you're glowing?" She complimented, not finding a better word to describe the blonde beauty at the moment.
"W-well, I don't see how I fit glowing but...thank you! You hair is beautiful! I bet it was Lisanna's job!" She said laughing.
"Yes! She was bored up until this havoc...So Lu-chan, can I help you? Has something hapenned?"
"Actually, I was searching for Erza, but she's not here, obviously. I need to do a small job in Hargeon, a personal thing."
"Really?". Curious eyes looked up t Lucy. "I'll go with you, no problem! What's this about?"
Giggling, the taller mage got closer to her long time friend and whispered "I had my first novel covered! The lady laughed when I said it was only one copy, but I don't know... It's just special and I..." That moment two thin, delicate arms wrapped themselves around her middle and an euphoric solid script mage couldn't stop smiling.
"Oh My God, oh My God! Lucy, this is incredible! Can I be the first one to read it? Please, please, pretty pleeease?"
Returning the embrace, Luce couldn't stop her own broad smile and the small tears tingling in the corner of her eyes. "Yes, yes! I had already promised that right? Lector was reading it too, but I was able to keep the last chapters from him, so he wouldn't be the first!"
The two girls let go of each other, still smiling and holding hands like ten-year-olds.
"And then, when we come back, I'd like you... to...to know my new house 'kay? We're gonna have some tea, talk and you could even sleep over! Sting and Lector are on a mission, and I'm starting to feel lonely...Please?"
Now Levy was crying. Not sobbing, nothing like that. Just the good old tears of joy. She was so proud of her friend.
When Lucy found herself in love with Sting, a member of Fairy Tail's former number one rival guild, the girl became a mess. She remembered how guilt she felt, how desperate she wanted to have them both and how she couldn't, not in this life, choose between them. Levy felt so honored that she was the first one to know about this and so happy that her friend had gone to her. Levy was the one that said that neither Fairy Tail nor Sting would make her choose. If he really loved her, he surely loved Fairy Tail as well, cause she was all that there was of good in their guild.
And now she was invinting her to meet this new page of her life. This new chapter she was writing with the love of her life and, most importantly, with herself.
"Of course Lu-chan... I'd feel honored...I'm so happy for you. But only if you promise me to come to mine and Gajeel's too! When you went there, the library was far from ready an.."
Drying her fried's tears with her soft knuckles, the blonde mage interrupted with a bllinding smile.
"I can't believe! A library? You said that was the office?"
"W-well, you see, we had plenty of empty walls and I thought 'hey, why not some shelves here and there...'. My house is a library now." Blushing, the blue haired girl admited sheepshily her compulsion over books one more time.
"If it wasn't covered in books, it wouldn't be your house at all Levy-chan"
Laughing, the two friends finnaly went to train station, leaving the message with Mirajane and leaving the guild arm in arm, talking like there was no tomorrow.
"What? They didn't do anything? I mean, we're all older now, but it's kind of hard to imagine Natsu and Gray being the mature ones in a room with Erza."
The two friends were chatting cheerfully while sitting on the comfortable couch at Lucy's living room. They had arrived hours ago from Hargeon and just finished having dinner, the Stellar Spirit Mage was now telling her friend about the fateful dinner with her team that other night.
"Me too Levy-chan. You had to see. And I even got sick over nothing. Last weekend got me good."
"You got sick?" The bookworm now had concern all over her face, warm eyes over Lucy's careless atittude as she gave her the news that she hadn't be at her best.
"Yeah, I don't know, maybe because I was so damn nervous the flu got to me, hehe." Scratching the back of her head, the blond mage stood up and stretched her arms over her head, standing on her toes. Relaxing again, Lucy couldn't hold a large ywan back, making Levy giggle at her red face.
"I'm sorry Levy-chan! I-I will just take a bath and we can talk more ok? I'll prepare a bath for you too... just..."
Lucy felt heavy, her head spinning around making it difficult for her to focus on her blue haired companion.
She couldn't make air to get to her lungs, a burning sensation inside her stomach letting her know things weren't right.
Her name being called from her friend's panicked voice was her only referrence that she was already falling.
And then everything went black.
Hey everybody! I'm sorry it took me sooo long to update, and that is such a short one. And cliff hanging. But I'm already working on the next longer and revealing chap! Cana, Polyrusca, Mira, Erza, Wendy will all appear in the next chapter! Oh, I already miss Sting, cause I haven't writte 'bout him in a while, but what can I do? AAAnd here comes the dramaaa.
Review only if you want to, but I can't know if you guys liked it or not if you don't, right?
Bye bye! =)
