Hey guys! I"M BACK!

Can you believe that we're on chappy 11? I CAN"T!

Well...Don't have much to say other then that so I WILL LEAVE YOU NOW!

unfortunately, I don't own Fairy Tail...but I wish I owned NATSU!

Chapter 11

Surprise!

It had been a month since Lucy, Wendy, and Juvia had arrived and Lucy was finally starting to feel like she could lower her guard. True, Grey and Natsu both had rampages often and this set Loke and, according to him, the other spirits on edge. She had assured them that they had nothing to worry about. When she asked why she hadn't seen any of the others, Loke had explained that he was her main guardian so he would show up more then the others and that most of the others specialized in some way.

(Like Aquarius and drowning in water, or Virgo and being buried alive)

He warned her to watch her cursing as well since she had a habit of swearing on constellations. "You named my constellation," he explained, "My real name is Leo." Needless to say, she managed to guess who the other 13 guardians were, especially after he told her this. After she promised to watch it, Loke went back to his world.

Lucy sighed. She hadn't fought anyone but Natsu since then and from what she had gathered, she, Wed, Jean, and Erza were the only ones who had won against him. Apparently, that was a big deal even though there were people who hadn't fought him at all. Mira said that she'd rather not fight if it could be avoided, Levy complained that her powers were meant for the library, not for 'butting heads with the idiots' and Elfman shouted that he was too man to fight someone with pink hair. (Natsu heard and chased Elfman for most of that day)

Either way, Lucy wasn't as excited as everyone else seemed to be. Especially in the mornings. Growning, Lucy thought about what had happened just a few days after she fought Natsu.

Everything had been as it usually was, she had gotten up and taken a shower. She didn't notice the lump in her bed until she was getting dressed. She made the mistake of screaming which, somehow, didn't wake him up. She had hastelly thrown on her clothes and finished her morning routine, trying not to think about how unnaturally warm she had been last night, despite the chill in the air.

It wasn't until she had finished cooking breakfast that he woke up. He had walked over and demanded something to eat. Lucy sighed at the memory. She had said no, of course, and he had retaliated by eating everything in her fridge. Everything! Lucy had been so mad! She knew the fridge would restock itself but she had still Lucy-Kicked him out of the room for his stupidness.

'At least', Lucy thought, 'when he decided to monster out, no one came running.' She had imagined the horror of having to explain why he was in her room in the first place. She had beat the crap out of him...again. She'd taken advantage of the situation and had called out Taurus. A big mistake since he had almost been beat because of his gushing over her body. Now she could only hope that he wouldn't blab to anyone. No one had hinted that they knew or treated her differently so she assumed that they knew nothing. Sadly, the butthead hadn't gotten the clue and had continued to sneak in every night. He had, however, gotten smart about demanding things from her and hadn't repeated the first morning's command.

Lucy shook the entire train of thought out of her head and continued down the hall. Mira was expecting her and, supposedly, she had a big surprise. Lucy turned a corner and saw Wendy. When Wendy saw her, she started jumping up and down while shouting, "She's here, Mira! She's here!"

With this, Wendy ran into the room and Lucy could hear her exclaiming about how pretty Lucy looked. Puzzled, Lucy opened the door.

"Surprise!" Everyone shouted, "Happy Birthday!"

Lucy smiled at them, "You weren't supposed to know!"

Wendy shrugged guiltily, "Mira asked. I didn't think it would do any harm." Lucy nodded understandingly, "I understand. You really can't keep ANYTHING from Mira."

Mira giggled from across the room. Lucy looked around at all the people surrounding her. She noted that Gray and Juvia were gone. She frowned slightly then shrugged it off and noticed that Natsu wasn't there either. She frowned slightly but didn't think much of it.

Smiling, Lucy went to the buffet and got herself a slice of the cake that was all but gone already. She walked back to Wendy while eating and watched Wendy try to persuade Charle to accept Happy's fish.

"Please, Charle?" Happy pleaded.

"No." Charled replied evenly.

Suddenly, a loud voice started singing 'Happy Birthday." This was joined by many other voices, until even Wed joined in. Lucy looked at the stage where to voice was coming from and saw Mira with a microphone. "Hey, guys! I know that we usually wait a few weeks before doing this, but since it's Lucy's birthday, I want to have our kareoke night now! Who's with me?!" There were several noises of agreement along with several loud screams from Evergreen and Jean. Lucy and Wendy looked at each other and grinned, this was gonna be fun.

So this is Chappy 11! Yes it's short...I know.

BUT I DON"T CARE! Next chappy has the singing in it! it will be out...hmmmm...eventually!

I LOVE YOU GUYS! Let's see if we can get the reviews to 70 ok?
