"Why are you smiling, Natsu?" Cana asked, laughing at his sudden look. He raised up his red sunglasses.

"The bitch is walking her yorkie," he said, pointing across the courtyard to a sidewalk. Yep, Lisanna was walking her yorkie like a prep. She was even dressed like a slut; only wearing a bikini top that her boobs were about to fall out of and shorts her "ass" was about to break. I started laughing hysterically.

"We should yell something," Cana suggested. Natsu immediately put his glasses back over his eyes and put his hands around his mouth.

"Hey, Lisanna!" he shouted extremely loud. She turned around and raised her Raybands, revealing her icy blue eyes.

"What?" she yelled back.

Natsu looked at us and whispered,"Get ready for this," before shouting his remark. "Did you raid the children's clothes at Walmart or is it all you can wear with your flat ass?!" he yelled and we all started leaning down laughing.

"Shut up, Natsu!" she practically squealed back with her high pitched voice.

"You need cream for those mosquito bites on your back or are those your natural A-cup?" Cana shouted, making Lisanna blow steam from her ears.

"Hey Lisanna, need some aloevera for that burn?" I also shouted, high-fiving Cana. My remark made Lisanna drop her leash, letting her yorkie run wild. She stormed over to us and slapped me in the face. It hurt like hell and stung like a bee sting.

I immediately stood up. "Do you want to fucking fight? Probably not, since you don't want to break a nail," I said sarcastically and took a step backwards. It was my second day and in Magnolia and I've already made an enemy. Yay...

"Well it looks like it's what you want you blue-haired freak. You fucking replaced me and I'm taking my spot back one step at a time." Lisanna took a few steps forward and got up in my face. I was a few inches taller than her, so she appeared to be struggling. Natsu stuck his hand between us and pushed her backwards.

"Lisanna, shut up. How the hell would you ever be able to become our friend again? You slapped one of out new friends in the fucking face. You were only our friend because you wanted to fuck one of us. You only managed to get a fucking hug out of me because I realized you were a whore! And a bird told me that you didn't even get through a month of that boarding school without having sex. You sent one of your teachers to jail! So don't ever think about coming back, because we would never accept you. So go find your yorkie and go the fuck home," Natsu exclaimed. She got one of her teachers arrested? So she really is a whore. Natsu was breathing heavily and Cana was sending Lisanna the middle finger.

It became so tense. Natsu appeared to have fire in his eyes. "Who told you about her teacher?" Cana asked, wanting to know some juicy gossip.

"Her older brother," Natsu answered and unclenched his fist.

"Elfman?" Cana gasped.

Natsu nodded. "He told me on the last day of school. He also told me that she had 3 abortions in the last 7-8 months. She could be pregnant now for all I care," Natsu exclaimed. We all gasped.

"She is a bitch. A big fucking whore ass bitch," I let out, thinking out loud. Cana started laughing.

"Look, the newbie hasn't even been around us for two full days and she's starting to act like us.." Natsu started laughing, too, and we all sat on the bench below the tree clenching our stomachs and crying from laughter.

Once we all settled down, I asked,"Are the others coming?" Natsu shook his head.

"They all have jobs. Levy and Lucy work at the bookstore. Gajeel is a shoeshiner at a barbershop, and Loke and Gray serve at McDonalds. It's the only day of the week they work," Natsu explained.

"We call Wednesdays "Deathdays" because it's the one day the pool is closed and the one day our friends work. It's a bummer but a smart day to work," Cana added. That explains things. "You guys want to spend the night at my house tonight? We could play cards against humanity with my dad..." Cana offered.

"I'll ask," I answered. Natsu said the same thing. "I left my phone at the house, You think we could get it and ask Jellal and Erza?" I ask. Cana nods and we head towards my house.


We get there and I open the door and enter. Cana and Natsu decide to hang outside in the front yard. "Hey Jellal, I have a question," I shout/whisper, because I don't know if Candaze is asleep or not. Then I hear giggling, so I know she's awake.

"Yeah Juvia?" Jellal shouted from the living room. He was sitting on the carpet, teaching Candaze to walk. Then he looked up. "Oh my god what happened to your face?" He gave concern. I had completely forgotten about my face and didn't realize it might be bruising.

"Lisanna slapped me. Hard. Anyway, I was going to ask if I could spend the night with Cana and Natsu," I explain.

"Uh, no. You're not spending the night with a boy," Jellal exclaimed. Erza walked in with a dishrag and a dirty plate. She was washing dishes in the kitchen.

"I say we let her. Natsu wouldn't do anything weird with Juvia. He barely hugged Lisanna last year so what makes you think he gets any?" Erza added.

"Not in front of Little C," Jellal exclaimed and covered Candaze's ears.

"Sorry honey but it's true. Besides, Juvia likes Gray." Erza spilled my beans!

"And where is he?" Jellal gave me the stink eye.

"Work until 9:00 pm..." I sigh and give Erza the why-you-do-dis look. She shrugs and goes back to the kitchen.

"Okay, fine, you can go. Need any money for lunch?" Jellal asked and gave me five bucks. I run upstairs and gather a pair of clothes, cell phone, charger, and bathing suit and fit it into a draw-string backpack.

"Bye guys!" I exclaimed and walked outside to my friends. "I can spend the night."

"I can, too. Guys, I'm hungry. It's 1:00 pm. You guys want McDonalds?" Natsu asked. We all nod. "I can drive us there. We just have to walk to my house."


We walk to Natsu's house and drive to McDonalds. Loke's behind the register, looking bored as ever. "Oh hey guys. Gray's stuck with toilet duty. So what would you like to order?"

"I'll take the big mac," I say, and Loke gives me the large soda cup. I pay and fill up my cup with Dr. Pepper. Cana and Natsu ordered the same, and filled their cups. Gray walks out of the bathroom with a disgusted face and a janitor's mop.

"Someone managed to clog a urninal." Gray sighed and walked into the "Employees Only" door. He came out with his phone. "Loke it's almost our break time."

"We have customers to serve first." Loke gestured towards us three. Gray didn't notice us standing there. He must've been thinking about those urinals.

"Oh hey guys. What's up?" Gray sat beside me in the booth we were sitting at.

"Them two," Cana pointed at Natsu and I,"are spending the night at my house tonight," Cana explained and took a spout of her drink.

"Aw man, I wish I could go...But I have work until 9:00 pm." Gray sighed. Loke served us our meals and sat down beside Cana. I took a bite of my big burger, and gave my fries to Gray, who was looking at them but didn't want to ask.

"What time does your break end?" I asked the two workers.

"Two-thirty," Loke answered. An hour before they have to go back...At least we have tomorrow and the pool will be open. There's a swimming pool walking distance from our houses, and over the phone Jellal mentioned having a membership. He said he got it just for this summer, because he knew I love swimming.

"Lisanna won't be messing with us anymore," Natsu spoke up, Loke and Gray leaning in for more.

"What makes you say that?" Loke asked, not believing his statement.

"Elfman told me some secrets a few days ago on the last day of school. Today she slapped Juvia and I used the gross secrets against her. She pretty much ran away crying and looking for her yorkie," Natsu explained. "Cana, text Loke and Gray the stuff I told you and Juvia. Also text Levy, Gajeel, and Lucy. They'd want to know, too," he commanded.

"Don't have to tell me twice. I was in the middle of doing it anyway," Cana said, her thumbs moving record speed. Gray and Loke's phones vibrate and they pick them up.

"Three?" Loke gasped.

"I knew she only wanted to fuck one of us," Gray exclaimed.

"Fullbuster, language!" an adult worker shouted from behind the counter.

"Sorry, sir!" Gray shouted back and popped a fry in his mouth. God, why was he so fucking perfect? His hair stuck in many places with the McDonald's visor, and his cheeks become rosy every time he smiles or laughs. He could rob a store and the cops wouldn't care. They wouldn't be able to move with his perfect body holding cash. They'd let him go.

I took a bite of my burger and realized everyone was already done. We had just sat down and talked about the stupidest things for an hour. Gray and Loke had to go back to work. It was a bummer, watching him go behind the counter and wait. He wasn't allowed to communicate with us unless we were buying something. Loke had gone into the kitchen to get a customer's order. Cana, Natsu, and I waved goodbye and drove to Natsu's house.

We gathered his things and walked to Cana's house. She had a pretty house, since it's just her and her dad only living there. There were tons of bouquets of flowers on each table. Her dad wasn't home, so we just hung out in her room. Cana had the highest room in the house, with an angled ceiling and a bathroom. Her room was the only one upstairs, other than a gameroom and her bathroom. We started playing truth or dare, but with a twist. Each truth must be answered by all; no excuse.

"Cana, truth or dare?" I asked her. She gave Natsu the evil eye and looked back at me.

"Truth," she said mischievously.

"Who do you like in the group?" She looked at me embarrassed.

"Lucy." Natsu sighed, finally letting out the secret.

"Natsu, go downstairs. We need girl to girl talk. Please?" Cana begged Natsu to go downstairs, and he took is phone and left. "Promise not to tell anyone? Ugh, this is so embarrassing..."

"My lips are sealed."

She looked away. "Loke..." She lets out a breath. "He does it to every other girl when he meets her...Kisses her on the hand and bows to her like she's a queen; special. Then he does some cheesy pick-up line that makes the girl blush. Every girl but me. When he met me..." Cana started to tear me. "He treated me like one of the guys. So I started wearing make-up and acting a tad bit more girly, but not too much. He's just so fucking perfect. Like am I not good enough for his flirting with every girl he meets?" Cana was crying. I leaned her head on my shoulder and let her cry. My shoulder became wet with tears, and Natsu came back in. He sort of just stood there awkwardly like he didn't know what to do. It became extremely awkward. Cana continued to cry, sating,"It's been three years..." and "Why not me..." I felt so bad. She really did like him, and I guess she felt left out. I just want her to be happy.

"It's going to be okay..." I patted her back. She was really upset about this. Natsu snuck into her bathroom and motioned me in there. "I have to pee. Wait here. I'll get some ice cream from downstairs too, okay?" She only nodded started playing on her phone. I crept into the bathroom where Natsu was sitting in the bathtub.

"I heard everything and sort of sent it to Loke. He hasn't responded yet though..." Natsu sighed and showed me the message. "You know he likes her back, right? Everytime I go to his house she's all he ever talks about/ It's why they get three hours of sleep at night. It's why he hasn't done it to her," Natsu whispered while I sat in the other side of the bathtub.

"That's adorable. I have to actually pee now...So..." I crawled out of the bathtub and pulled the curtain. He couldn't see a thing. I flushed, left, and went downstairs for her ice cream. She ate it like a pig and started laughing. We ended up all sitting on her bed eating ice cream with our hands. Now I have best friends.
