10. "I already did."
"Doesn't that get annoying?" Lucy asked, looking over Levy's shoulder where Jet and Droy were cheering incessantly.
"Not really, they're just showing they care. It's not like they can help with this sort of thing." She replied, without looking up from the cipher she was currently working on. "Besides if I don't let them cheer they'll probably start asking me out."
"And it'd be the worst thing in the world to have a couple of guys asking you out."
"Exactly" Levy replied, not picking up on Lucy's sarcasm "Team Shadow Gear works well as it is, I couldn't mess up the balance like that."
"Eh, so you'd reject them?"
"I already did" Levy mumbled, as she quickly jotted something down, moving from the main text to the reference she'd been using quickly.
Lucy blinked and looked over at the two guys again, wondering not for the first time where they got that drum from –and how long they could cheer without a break. "You're lucky, Levy" she concluded, earning a noise of curiosity from the girl still absorbed in reading "Even after you turn them down they still look out for you exactly the same. I don't think I'd be able to get over something like that."
"You'd be surprised what you'd do for your comrades… Ah! Got it!" Levy cheered, and was rewarded with an entire fanfare from the rest of her team.
