I'm jolted awake as I clutch my stomach. Happy just pounced on my stomach for some odd reason. He jumps down and heads towards the door. I scratch my head as I look towards the clock as I sigh. It's 3:45 and I'm wide awake. Happy start to claw at the door and I get the signal. I get up and open the door and he runs out of the room downstairs. I lay back down only to stare at the ceiling for 15 minutes straight.
'God, why the hell am I up.' I get up, not wanting to stay in bed any longer and start off the day at 4 o'clock.
I lay out my clothes for this morning and the afternoon and get a towel as well. I go to the bathroom, brush my teeth and take a shower. I dry my hair and change into a black and white plaid skirt, a black shirt with white dots, white knee-high socks, black flats, and a black fedora. I look at the clock and see that is now 6 o'clock. I grab my phone and text Levy, Sting, and Rogue to meet up. And to my surprise, Levy was up and immediately texted back. I chuckled as I flop onto my bed and pull out some headphones and listen to music. I scroll through my playlist and after 10 minutes of scrolling, I play Time of Our Life by Day6. I slowly drift off only to abruptly be awakened again with a loud noise. I sigh as I make my way down the stairs.
"Happy! Get off the counter and pushing glasses off!" Mom yells.
"Happy." He looks at me and makes his way towards me.
Mom huffs. "How do you control him so well?"
"Dunno, maybe he just loves me more."
"Well then." She turns away from me. "Breakfast is ready."
I sit down as Dad walks down the stairs. "Morning."
"Morning." Mom and I say in unison.
As he sits down, Virgo and Capricorn start to serve the food.
Capricorn is the butler of our house. He drives us anywhere we desire, and our wonderful poet.
We eat and I rush upstairs to grab my shoes and my bag and put in my phone, earbuds, keys, and my wallet into it. After exiting my room I got a text from Sting and Rogue. I walk downstairs again to head to the front door.
"And where are you going, miss?" Mom asks.
"I'm just going out with my friends, that's all," I say back.
"I hope you're not trying to get out of going to tonight's dinner." She crosses her arms.
"Layla, let her go. She'll be back before we leave, right pumpkin?" Dad looks at me.
"Yes, of course, I will."
"Okay, I will see you later okay?" Dad drags Mom upstairs to pick out their outfit for tonight.
'Jeez Wizz, Mom can be a handful.'
I head out to meet up with Levy so I can introduce her to Sting and Rogue. I walk to her house, which isn't very far and knock on her door.
"Coming~" The door opens to show Levy's mom.
"Lucy, how are you dear? It's been so long since I saw you." She hugs me in a bear hug.
"I'm fine, how are you?" I say as she lets me go.
"I'm good. Are you here for Levy?" She questions.
"Um, yes ma'am."
She smiles and turns around.
"LEVY COME DOWN! LUCY'S HERE!" She yells at the top of her lungs.
"Mom I'm in the kitchen which is right next to where you're standing!" Levy says as she walks into the hallway.
"Oh...oops." She chuckles as she walks off to the kitchen.
"Well, that's fun...," Levy says as she invites me into the house. "I'll be ready in a sec."
"It's fine," I say as I follow her up the stairs.
We go up to her room as she asks me what to wear. After five minutes, she finally picks an outfit to wear. She wore leggings jeans with a white top, a green jacket to go with it, brown shoes and a small tote bag.
"Are you ready now?" I ask as she admires herself.
"Oh uh yeah sorry.." She apologies and we walk downstairs towards the door.
"Oh, you guys are leaving already!?" Margaret says as she comes into the room with a half bitten sandwich and a Dr. Pepper.
"Yeah we're supposed to be meeting someone," I say as we hear a k-drama playing from the other room.
She lets us go after realizing that her drama was going on without her. We say our goodbyes as we leave the house. Only a few feet away from the house, we hear loud crying and yelling. Everyone is looking at us as we just left from there, so we started speed-walking towards the cafe.
We enter the cafe and take a seat near the window. The waitress comes over but I say we'll order when everyone gets here. Levy throws me a glare.
"What's up, Levy? You've been glaring at me since we got here."
"I was wondering, what do you mean by everyone? I thought it was one person." She questions as she keeps glaring.
"Uhh, Levy I said it was two people. Do you not read your text all the way?" I say as my phone vibrates.
"Nope. I skim and look for the most important things."
"And what was the important thing you got from my text," I questioned her. Her face lights up.
"Free food." She smiles.
