Normal POV
It had been another five months since the guilds party and everything had seemed to die down, nothing to interesting happened that would be worth telling because everything has followed the same routine. Loke and Lucy loving each other, lots of missions, unpaid rent, Natsu and Gray fighting, among other things. Lucy had never got to ask Loke about what he said as whenever she tried to talk to him about it, something would pop up and distract her or miraculously divert her attention elsewhere.
This didn't bother her too much though, as something else had been eating away at her recently. She had realised in the past few weeks Loke had been around her less and less. He would only ever stay over at night once or twice a week, and Lucy only got to see him for maybe five days a week on average.
She had been spending more and more time with Natsu, which wasn't a problem and although she had fun with him, he always wanted to go on hard missions and this kept Lucy entertained. She gradually grew closer and closer to him; their bond deepening. Although this newly founded bond left Lucy feeling happy it could never replace the love which Lucy felt for Loke.
Lucy always had one question on her mind. What was Loke doing? Was he just using 'too much' magic power and needs rest like he was telling her, was he taking a secret mission from the spirit king, maybe he was planning a surprise? There was one more thing that haunted Lucy but she didn't want to bring herself to admit it, or at least not yet. Of course she trusted him deeply but there was her previous relationships which kept her from giving anyone her complete and utter trust.
There was only one thing which could ease her mind and let her heart rest. She had to talk to the Fairy Tail girls about this.
Lucy POV
I have finally decided to have a sleepover and what's not better than today. I mean Loke won't be around (as per usual). He left another note for me this morning. It went along the same lines as the millions before it.
To my dear beloved Lucy,
My heart is filled with remorse that I can't be with you today and tonight but my power is fading from spending so much time in the human world and complete special missions. Don't call me out as I don't want you using your precious magic power. I will miss you dearly and hopefully I will see you tomorrow and I will make it up to you tomorrow night.
Love from your silly lion x
I was becoming impatient and tired of the 'hopefully in every letter he leaves. I guess he won't mind me having a sleepover with the girls then.
I scrunched up the letter and chucked it in the bin by my desk before grabbing my black coat and heading out into the bitter morning to go to the Fairy Tail guild. I walked in and found all the girls talking at the bar (except for Cana who had passed out on the bar). Only a few guys were actually awake, these included Gajeel, Fried, Elf man and Bixlow, who were all talking to each other about what they had accomplished in the many missions they have taken.
I walked up to the crowded bar and sat down in a vacant seat next to Levy and Erza.
"hey girls!" I said as I sat down, "I was wondering if you were all free tonight for a sleepover? I need to talk to you all about something that's been bothering me and it would be great to have your support." I looked up to see what they thought. I didn't want to delay asking them incase they planned something else, so I got straight to the point.
"Juvia was going to see what Gray was doing but Juvia can make an exception for her ex-love rival." there goes Juvia speaking in third person again, I will never fully understand that girl.
"sure Lu-chan I can't wai!t I will bring snacks and stuff!" Levy gave me a hug and started writing a list using the new magic pen which Gajeel bought her. It never runs out of ink, I really need to get myself one of those.
"oh yes this will be great to get the new gossip... I mean hang out with you all." Mira said with a giggle and set down a vanilla milkshake in front of me, I gave her a quick thanks before turning back to the rest of the girls.
"I will be there as long as there is strawberry cake, got that Levy." Erza said whilst turning to Levy who was hurriedly taking notes.
"I'm sorry Lucy, b-but I'm having a night in with Carla and... Romeo." Wendy said shyly, all the girls let out an awww.
"don't worry just promise me you will have a good night." I said smiling and patting her on the head. She just nodded and turned bright red.
Cana broke the muttering by mumbling,"I will be there but bring alcohol..." before falling back asleep and letting out a few snores, Levy at this point was taking more and more notes frantically.
"count me in, I haven't had a night out in ages. I love Asuka dearly but boy I havent had a girly night out since she was born" Bisca said whilst twirling her gun.
"I wanna finally have a sleepover with you Lucy and I really want to help you out so I will be there." Lisanna said as she helped Mira dry glass cups.
"I will come as Gildarts and I are resting from our last mission." as Laki said this Cana shot off her chair immediately becoming sober.
"oh, crap. I gotta go hide but I will see you later. Just Don't tell my dad I will be there ok?" Cana ran out the doors leaving everyone in fits of laughter. Coincidentally a few seconds after she had left Gildarts burst in shouting for his 'darling Cana' in a sing-song voice. Everyone including me was rolling on the floor laughing. It may have been the first time in weeks since I laughed like this and I must admit I was enjoying it.
After a few minutes kinana piped up, "yeah I will be there for you Lucy!"
"ok is that everyone?" I asked. Everyone cheered before Mira interrupted.
"wait that's a lot of people, 10 I think. You won't be able to be able to fit them all in your apartment, how about we have it here in the guild?"
"that would be great but what I want to talk about needs to be kept between the girls and only the girls, so isn't it a bit public?" I asked not wanting the guys to overhear everything.
"oh don't worry Lucy! We can use one of the big rooms at the back of the guild, no one will bother us!" Mira said, pointing towards a door which I assumed lead to the back of the guild.
"alright, I will see you later, I'm going to go back to my apartment to pack my stuff and get ready, so I will see you in about two hours." I said as I got up and gave them all a hug.
"ok me and Mira will get everything ready here." Lisanna said as she waved good-bye to me.
"alright bye." I just need to get ready now, wow I hope I'm ready to discuss this!
~~ time skip an hour later~~
Normal POV
Lucy had just had her bath and packed her bag. She was now preparing herself for what she was going to say. As she looked in the bathroom mirror, practising what she was going to say she felt those oh-so familiar arms wrap around her waist and hold her perfectly. Lucy let out a sigh of happiness, she missed the warmth and comfort.
"what are you telling the girls?" Loke whispered into her ear. Lucy felt shocked beyond belief and nearly fainted from surprise, instantly being ripped out of her little bubble of comfort.
"L-Loke what are y-you doing here? I thought you were out of magic!" Lucy stuttered as her legs turned to jelly.
"I pushed myself extra hard to come and see my master, I think I need to be... Punished tonight." he said seductively sending a chill down her spine.
"ummm actually I have plans,as I wasn't expecting you to be here I am having a sleepover with the girls. As you heard I'm talking to them about clothes and stuff sooo I'm really sorry but I can't be with you tonight." Lucy said as she turned round and hugged him, burying her head into his firm chest before pulling away and heading to her packed bag.
"can't you put it off tonight, I mean I haven't seen you in ages!" Loke said with sadness present all over his voice and face.
Lucy began to become angry and she abruptly turned around. "and who's fault is that? You keep saying your out of power and you don't want me to bring you out. Seriously! You're the head of the zodiacs, well that's at least what you told me the first time I was worried about you staying over but you refused to go and said you would be fine. You've been disappearing more and more. I'm going out, I will see you later."
"fine if that's how you want." Loke said with anger and hurt before disappearing to the spirit world once again. Honestly, Lucy didn't want him to go but her pride wouldn't let her call him back out. Guilt started to take over.
Lucy stormed through the streets, tears threatening to escape her eyes. She hadn't wanted to say that to Loke, but the emotions she had bottled up escaped her in a moment of weakness. As she walked into the guild Levy jumped up from her seat and took Lucy's hand, unaware of the emotional state Lucy was in. She guided her to the back of the guild, through an empty corridor and into a surprisingly big room.
Lisanna and Mira had laid out a lot of mattresses, in the middle of them was a space where food, games, alcohol, strawberry cheesecake and much more were spread out, It looked a bit like a jammy dodger made from random objects. Everyone was sitting on their own mattress with their things unpacked and ready. Lucy took the last one on the far left which was next to Levy's and Evergreens.
Lucy's POV
I was now getting excited and couldn't wait to get things started! I pushed my worries to the back of my mind. Mira called everyone to the centre.
"so Lucy we are all here to help you, what did you need to talk to us about?" everyone turned to look at me and their stares made me more and more self-conscious.
"u-umm, well I-it's about Loke..." a lot of ahhhh's and hmmmm's sounded throughout the room and it dawned on me that maybe this was bound to happen with Loke, I mean it seems all the girls seem to know this was going to happen! The worry resurfaced once again only moments after I had tried to forget about it.
"well, he has been acting strange the past few weeks, I only see him like twice a week and he only stays for the night very rarely. If he does stay at night he never just wants to cuddle, or watch a movie it's only one thing he wants. Also he always has the same excuse of 'I've ran out of magic power' and I don't know what to do." all the girls looked at me sympathetically but as though they knew this was going to happen.
"he's either telling the truth, on a secret mission for the spirit king or..." I really didn't want to say it but I had to, everyone was waiting eagerly so I looked down and whispered. "or he's..."
Celeste: that punishment was so good... I mean terrible!
Juvia: Juvia is not satisfied with the level of punishment that was given.
Gray: Maybe we should get her to read her own story I think that's a good punishment.
Erza: Indeed.
Celeste: I have read it and I think it is quite good!
Lucy: Well it isn't bad but I want to know what the reviewers think.
Natsu Me too!
Happy: Aye! Review and tell us what you think. Pweeeeaaasse!
