A/N: Okay, so I lied. It was too gloomy here today to write any angst. So here's a short little thing that I hope will make you chuckle. :)
Please, guys, ask me for happier stories. During the winter, I will not be writing angst just so you are all aware of that.

Pairing: RoLu if you squint, Gajeel/Lucy broship, Gajeel/Rogue broship
Genre: humor/frienship
Prompt: "I mistook you for my best friend and jumped on your back in public and now I'm embarrassed" au
As Lucy was sitting quietly in the bus stop waiting for her bus, something prompted her to glance up. Normally, she would just sit and read her book or write a little while waiting. Or she'd people watch and use them as ideas and inspiration for her novel. It just so happened that she glanced up and spotted a familiar head of shaggy black hair. She blinked, doing a double take. Was that Gajeel? She had missed him! How long had it been since she had been able to visit him and Levy since she moved to Magnolia?
A mischievous fairy chose that moment to whisper a wicked idea in Lucy's ear. One she promptly acted upon. She was best friends with Natsu and Gray, after all. The past eight years had made her a little…insane.
Lucy tucked her book into her bag and slung the bag over her shoulder. Years of aiding in pranks had made her an expert at silent movement. Because honestly, Natsu moving silently? Yeah, when Hell froze over.
She slipped through the suddenly crowded sidewalk and broke into a run when she got close to the black haired man. Lucy's slim legs bent as she launched herself at him in a flying hug.
"GAJEEL!"
She and the man went tumbling to the ground head over heels. Owww… Lucy groaned slightly as she felt her tights rip. Crap, those were nice tights, too! Okay, Lucy, not your best plan ever, doll.
"What the heck was that?!" Oh, right, the guy she had just tackled wasn't Gajeel.
What.
The guy she had just tackled wasn't Gajeel.
"Oh, gosh." She came face to face with the irate man she had knocked to the ground. He was glaring at her in an attempt to most likely disintegrate her and turn her bones to dust.
I knew I shouldn't have listened to the evil Fairy!
"I'm so sorry!" Lucy said frantically. "I thought you were someone else, one of my friends I haven't seen in a while. It was the hair. He has hair just like your's except his was longer the last time I saw him and come to think of it, he's taller than you I think and I'm so sorry for jumping on you!" Lucy covered her scarlet face and refused to look up.
"It's okay."
With that, he was gone, leaving Lucy alone in the middle of the sidewalk, staring after him with confusion writ on her features.
Two weeks later, Rogue was sitting at an outdoor patio of a coffee shop with his older brother Gajeel. It was the first time they were able to visit since Rogue had moved to Magnolia two weeks before. Gajeel was the same obnoxious guy he had ever been.
"Nice haircut," Gajeel snickered. Rogue gave a long-suffering sigh and rolled his eyes.
"I got it so I wouldn't be mistaken for you and injured," he said blandly. Before Gajeel could question him as to what the heck he meant, Rogue was half knocked over by a flying blonde blur.
"GRAY!"
"NOT AGAIN!"

The Turtle Beta-Yeah, I loved those parts too! *^* It was just so much fun to write! :D
snibs13- Sometimes the crack pairings are more fun because it's different than the canon couples. :) Oh, you should see me spaz out when I get a review or PM from one of my senpai's! :D I practically live in my head, so people just bother me. -_-
Eien ni Touko- *scratches cheek* Weeeeeeellllllllll... I may or may not have been stalking you and Dragon for like six months now, way before I joined FF? (I'm totally not joking.) But honestly, Lucy's reactions were all me. :) She was so much fun to write! I'm thinking about doing a companion from Cobra's POV, because that would be so much fun. XD I'm so glad you liked it! :D It was so much fun to write, it should have been illegal. :)
Lily (guest)-I'm glad you liked it and my other stories. You should leave reviews so maybe you could get a oneshot. ;) And yes, the group Cobra was with was the Oracion Seis. I'm planning on writing a companion piece from Cobra's POV. And yes, the marriage bit. XD That was one of my favorite parts to write! :D His friends are totally like, dude. What is going on.
