I know it has been months since I updated this story but after seeing this story was still getting views and reivews (not to mention a few of you messaged me about whether or not I was still going to continue this story!)

Enjoy!
Oh, and I don't own Fairy Tail but If I did then let's just say all the fans reading this fanfic would be very happy!
"Lucy! What do think of this dress?"
Turning my attention to my childhood friend Levy, who is questioning me about a long sleeve blue dress that you would expect to see at a fancy ball.
"I think it's a bit over the top. it's a Prom Levy, not a ballroom prince dance."
"You think so?" Saying this Levy puts the dress back on the clothing rack and starts to look for another one.
We are at a dress shop located a bit down town from our high school. I for one didn't really want to go shopping since I didn't get a chance to even start my homework yet due to Levy filling me in on all the new books coming out this year and of course, her knight and shining armor, Gajeel. To me, he sounds more of a street punk but to her, he's her warrior in prince clothing I suppose.
Which leads me to the reason why I just can't say no to spending time with her. I have only seen her once this whole week - when I started Fairy Tail high - and that's because she went on a feild trip with the library club (yeah that's a thing), then she did extra school work to spend two days with Gajeel. Only Levy could get two days off of school by doing extra school work.
"So Lucy, who are you going to prom with? I mean, there's a rumor going around that you're dating Erza but I know that's not true.
Frozen. That's how my body reacts to the question. No words leave my mouth as my brain scrambles to process the question and respond.
How does she know me and Erza are together when she hasn't even been to school this past week? An even better question is, am I about to lose my childhood friend because I'm with Erza? I mean, I don't even know if am gay. I just really like Erza.
Forgetting the world around me as my brain turns gears, I snap out of it and find Levy staring at me. Unlike me, Levy is amused at this whole sitition and is even trying to hind her smile.
Great. She probobly already knows I'm with Erza just by my actions. But that might be not a bad thing. I mean, I'm not ashamred of being with Erza, even if that means I'm gay or bisexual.
"Lu, chill out. I already know you're with Erza."
Of course she doesn't support it. Not everyone is open to the idea yet. Now I have to choose between my childhood friend or my new girlfriend. Okay- wait, did she say she already knows and she smiling?
"Wait, what? How did you know?" I somehow stutter out.
"I ran into Gray yesterday and I asked how you were doing. When he said you were doing really good, I basically tackled him with my questions till he told me the news," Levy says as she goes to the next clothing rack with me right behind her.
"So you're okay with this ? " I say a little puzzled.
"Lucy, of course I'm okay with it! As long as you're not into me and you're happy, then I'm fine," Levy says in a jokey voice.
Smiling, I can't help but to throw my arms around Levy and hug her.
"Thank you so much! It means a lot to just have your support," I say, sighing in relief. She doesn't hate me!
"You get weirder and weirder by the day. Now, quit joking around and look for prom dresses! We have a million things to do today," Levy says.
Without another word I start skipping around the store in excitement. Not only does my best friend support me but I'm going to prom with Erza. Who wouldn't be excited?
"I can't believe we have went to five prom dress shops and haven't even bought one thing yet. Not even a hair piece or something," I sigh as I walk down the streets of Amgnollia to whatever store is next on Levy's list.
"Don't worry Lu, we will find the prefect dresses and when we d,o the music is going to play and time is going to stop!" Levy states with a sparkle in her eye.
Smiling, I can't help but laugh at my childhood friend.
"I think you have been reading too many books!" I say with a laugh.
"Nonsense, you can never read to much! Anyways we're here!" Levy announces.
Looking up, I see a brick bulding store with the banner in the shape of a book with the words "Book Land" written in big red letters. And here I thought we were dress shopping?
"Lu! Come on!" Levy yells as she is already halfway through the store door.
Jogging atfer her, I enter the store to be greeted with the smell of books and coffee. Ah the smell of books. there is nothing like it! If i ever said that out loud, i'm sure people would think I'm crazy though.
The store itself looks like a typical book store with shelves all lined up to the right full with books, little spots to sit evrywhere and the counter to check out to the left of the entrance.
Not really questioning it, I follow Levy to the back of the room when she takes a sharp right. Trying to not run into her from the sudden turn, I take a right as well and that's when I see it.
In the back on the bookstore there is a small dress shop with some of the most gourgous dresses I have ever seen. The dresses are hanging on racks as well as a few on the walls and they look like they come in all sorts of colors. I guess Levy really did know what she was doing. Although, looking through a bookstore wouldn't have bugged me one bit.
A woman about our age approaches us as we enter the area with the sound of her black high top boots walking along the floor.
Taking a quick look at her, I can definitely say her style is unique. The young but pale girl is dressed in a fancy red dress that comes to her knees with a dark blue jacket over it buttoned at the top. Her light pink hair is in a neat pony tail with a pair of brown ear warmers on the top of her head.
"Hi, My name is Meredy, and I'm here to help with anything you need. Is there a certian kind of dress you're looking for, ladies?" Meredy ask in a perky voice as she smiles with one hand on her hip.
"Yes, we are both looking for prom dresses and we have tried everywhere in town so we were hoping you had something different," Levy explains,
"If different's what you want, we definitely have it. Just go to the back- two racks to the left- and I'm sure you will find what you're looking for. Oh, and there are some dresses on the wall!"
Smiling, Levy and I make our way to the racks Meredy told us about and start looking through them.
Looking through the two racks, I sigh. There is nothing in here that's going to make me stick out at the prom. Really, I just want Erza to think I stick out but that's besides the point.
However it seems like Levy has found what she wants because she is holding a purple dress with one shelve missing and two blue strips on the side that would come down to her ankles and is smiling.
Smiling at how my friend finally found a dress, I go to look at the racks again to just pick something, when I see it. There on the wall behind the racks is a dress that is a short blue dress with small yellow stripes down it that would stop at my knees. At the end of the dress it fliers out and ruffles up and the top has two black sleaves coming out from the blue. It's perfect.
Levy and I walk down the streets of Magnolia happy as can be. Not only did we find our prom dresses but after we tried them on, Meredy helped us pick out some stunting accessories.
"Well now that we have everything we need for prom, I think we should call it a day!" Levy said as she struggles a bit holding three shopping bags in each hands.
"That's good, I have so much homework to do and I definitely don't want to turn into a slacker!" I say in the same position as Levy with all the shopping bags.
Suddenly I remember that today was the day of Yukino's book club! And it starts at 5pm. Let's see what time is it..
"Levy do you by chance have the time?" I ask in a small panic. I really didn't want to miss this!
Levy looks are her simple blue watch on her left wrist and then looks back up to me.
"it's only 4:45pm, have somewhere to be Lu?" Levay asks in question.
"As a matter of fact I do, and we are going to be late!" I say now panicking for sure.
Not even taking time to explain to Levy, I take off running towards Fairy Tail High. It's a good thing Levy and I have walked around town all day because I sort of know where I am.
"Wait, Lucy, slow down!" I hear Levy yell behind me.
"I will explain later but I know you will love it just as much as me so don't worry!" I say juggling shopping bags as I run.
