LELOUCHE POV:

Finally I had gone to sleep and it felt like no time had passed and I was woken up once again. I heard nothing but voices around me and it was pissing me off. I felt someone poke me in my cheek, then in the boob. I heard a voice say, "Her boobs seem bigger than Lucy's."

That was a little flattering to me for some reason. "Lelouche? When did you get out again?" That must be Wendy. Our family are the only ones who know about me. I heard another voice say, "Who the hell is this?" There was silence. "Well, if Lucy isn't here then I could care less. I get to spend more time with Natsu with her out of my way."

"Lisanna, why would you say something like that? Lucy is our friend, our family!"

"She may be that way to you, but to me she is my enemy…I hate her." There was the sound of the door closing and then nothing but silence. All of a sudden, I felt tension on me like I was being stared at again. "Should we wake her up?"

I let out a big sigh. "There's no need to. Yo." I waved at everyone, but they just stared back at me like I was some monster. Wendy jumped up and hugged me. "Hey Wendy. Sorry I didn't tell you that I came back. I'll explain everything." The one with short blue hair spoke up. "Where's Lu-chan?" I scratched my head and sighed. "Hopefully this is the last time that I have to tell this story." I patted the bed and everyone reluctantly sat around me. Wendy sat in my lap, she helped tell the back story of how she met me the first time. I told them the situation and they all let out a big sigh of relief. The one with long white hair smiled. "Okay, at least we know she's okay. Lucy is our friend and a big part of our family, so not seeing her really scared us. Please continue to take care of her."

The one with scarlet hair got off the bed. "Well since you're going to be out and about for a while, why don't we introduce ourselves? My name is Erza Scarlet." The rest of the girls stood by Erza. She pointed at the girl with short blue hair. "This is Levy McGarden. She enjoys reading and is very kind. She has a crush on Gajeel Redfox. He's a big guy and he seems to only have eyes for Levy." Erza smiled a little, but Levy just blushed. "E-Erza you didn't have to say it like that."

"Oh come now, everyone knows the both of you are attracted to each other, and there's no need to leave Lelouche out of this. We wouldn't want her to fall in love with any of our guys, now would we?" Erza let out a chuckle. She then pointed to the girl with long white hair. "This lovely demon is Mirajane Strauss. She's our S-class barmaid at the guild and she's very friendly. Just don't piss her off. That's why I think Laxus is a very formidable lover for her." Mira blushed. "I think so too Erza. I hope Laxus and I can live a happy life together."

I spoke up for a second. "Who was the bitch that dissed Lucy and left?"

Mira sighed. "That was my little sister, Lisanna. She has liked Natsu ever since we were little. When Lucy moved in, Natsu started favoring her more. So Lucy and Lisanna have been rivals ever since."

"Damn. So who do you think is winning?" I laughed. Erza's eyes grew fierce. "That is of no importance. They just need to settle things-." Erza had a sword appear in her hands. "-or I will."

I laughed. "Whoa, I already like you Erza." Erza's weapon disappeared and she blushed. "I- I have Jellal!" She pushed her hands forward as if denying me. "Not like that." I laughed even harder, but I stopped when I felt some sort of dark aura loom over me. I looked and I saw the girl with long blue hair giving me a death stare. She was mouthing something, but I couldn't make it out. Erza noticed me staring and she smiled. "This is Juvia Lockser. She's a great friend, but if you think about getting close to Gray Fullbuster, she just might kill you." Erza laughed it off, but I stared at Juvia and chuckled. "So you love Gray too, huh? Too bad I'm not going to lose to some bitch like you." Everyone in the room gasped. Juvia had gotten even darker. "What makes Lelu-chan so sure that she can win Gray-sama's heart?" She put so much emphasis on the –chan part and it pissed me off. "Listen bitch, you get in my way and there will be consequences." I got up and grabbed some clothes and a towel. I heard Mirajane say, "Oh dear, it sounds like another love rivalry." I walked to the door, opened it, and without turning my back said, "I'm going to go take a bath." And I left.

"Hey Lucy, you awake?"

"I've been awake the whole time."

"Define 'whole time'."

"From the time you woke up."

I sighed. "So you heard the part with Juvia then?"

"Yeah, pretty much. You know, you didn't have to be that harsh to her."

I looked down. "I don't care how harsh I was on her. If I become buddy buddy with her it would be fake. I would rather have no friendship than fake friendship."

I heard Lucy sigh. "Well if that's how you want it to be, then I can't tell you otherwise."

"Anyway, you and Lisanna seem to be in the same boat."

Lucy laughed. "The only difference your situation and mine, is that I know Natsu likes me back."

"Oh yeah, how can you tell?"

"Eh…er…uhm…I – I guess I don't." I couldn't help but laugh a little. "If you don't know, then why don't you ask? What's stopping you?"

"It's just that I don't want to be rejected, and Natsu can be pretty dense sometimes so he could reject me without even knowing what I meant. I think I'll just wait for a bit."

"Is Gray dense like Natsu?"

"Nah, he's way smarter than Natsu when it comes to romance. I mean, Juvia practically shoves love down the guys throat, but all he ever does is spit it back out."

I chuckled. "So he doesn't like it when someone forces love, huh? Interesting." I continued walking down to the bathing room and luckily there wasn't anyone inside. I quickly rinsed off so I could sit in the warm bath. When I finished, I ran inside and jumped in. "Whoa, this feels amazing! I wish I could stay in here forever, but I've got to meet up with Gray in a little bit."

"Oh? I never heard anything about this. I mean I knew you were going to spend time with him, but I didn't think you were going to go ahead with it this early."

"Well he's going to help me separate from you."

"What? You never asked me about what I wanted to do."

"I thought maybe you would want this too…I didn't think you would mind."

"Lelouche, you are a part of me. Who knows what could happen to either of us if we were to be separated."

We were silent. I didn't really think about that. I was so excited about being my own person, I just neglected possible consequences. Hopefully Gray can help with that. I don't want anything to go wrong.

I heard a door close behind me and I instantly ducked in the water. Whoever it was scared me. I saw their feet go into the bath, I slowly rose up and saw a girl with short white hair. "Hey Lucy, who is that?"

"Lisanna…"

Lisanna looked my way and she jumped a little bit. "Where did you come from?" She had so much attitude in her voice. "I've been here the whole time. I just dipped my head in."

"You should have drowned yourself."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, crazy bitch, no need to get dark here." She closed her eyes. "I don't have to be nice and friendly towards you, and I don't have to be like that towards her either." There was so much emphasis on the word 'her' and I knew who she was talking about. "You don't have to address Lucy like that. If you have a problem with her then settle the issue."

Lisanna opened her eyes and she looked irritated. "Why would I want to talk to some blonde bitch about issues? She's dumber than dumb can get, I want an intelligent conversation, not rambling."

I could hear Lucy in the back of my head. "Who the hell does she think she is, talking about me like that?! Lelouche, kick her ass already!"

I laughed and it caught Lisanna's attention. "I see dumb bimbo's run in your family." That comment was uncalled for and it pissed me off. "Oh, you think so, well I'd rather be a dumb bimbo than an ugly whore. I mean at least someone who is ignorant can learn and become and intelligent being. A whore is a whore. 'Once a whore you're nothing more, I'm sorry that'll never change.' A quote from my favorite song. Maybe you should listen to it someday. It could teach you something."

Lisanna looked at me with anger in her eyes. "Look, get off my ass okay. I didn't do anything to you!"

"You're right, you didn't do anything to me, but you did everything to Lucy. Listen to me, you better leave her alone. If anything were to happen to her because of you I would hunt you down and kill you. Plus I'm sure there would be other people who wouldn't forgive you, especially Natsu." Her eyes widened at his name.

"By that look on your face, that means on of two things, or maybe even both. You didn't think about how Natsu would feel about her being gone or you were planning on hurting Lucy in the future." I got out of the bath. "Don't think that just because you get rid of somebody, doesn't mean you'll get what you want. Try being nice and considerate because you have no idea how Natsu sees either of you. So before you jump up and do anything, ask him how he feels about you first. Maybe it'll open your eyes to something new."

I walked into the second room, dried off and put on my clothes. I heard the door open and I saw Lisanna. She rested on the side of the door and she sighed. "I guess I can talk to Natsu to see where he stands. I'll come back to you when I find out what I did."

"Uhm, I'm coming with you."

"What?"
"I can't trust you. So I'm coming with."

Lisanna huffed. "Whatever."

I stretched out. "Well I'll come to you when I get back."

"Where are you going?"

"None of your business. Just be ready in an hour or two. I'll be back by then."

"Fine, but you better not be late!"

I opened the door and waved to Lisanna. "Whatever." I walked out and I couldn't hear Lucy, silent as ever I see. I just left her alone to think.

I walked to the boys' room and knocked on the door. It opened and a sleepy Natsu was there. "Oh, what's up? Everyone's still asleep, including me."

I sighed. "Where's Gray?" Natsu waved his hand for me to come inside. All of the guys were on the floor. "Ice Princess froze the bed, so he's been sleeping on it." Natsu fell on the floor and he started snoring. I pushed Gray off of the bed. "Gray, wake up! We were supposed to be doing research today. Apparently you forgot." He quickly got up. "Oh shit! I'm sorry Lelouche!" He put on some clothes and he grabbed my hand. "Let's head to a diner or something first, I'm starving." We left the hotel to begin our research and maybe a little bonding too. I'm looking forward to getting closer to this guy. He seems like so much fun!
