What the hell is going on there?

Fate wondered while trying to drown out the noise outside her room. She pulled her pillow over her head but she still could hear the music and someone singing, very badly.

She turned to her side to grab her phone to check the time, it was eight in the morning, on a saturday.

Is she crazy or something?

After debating a bit with herself she decided to get up and tell Nanoha to be quiet. Fate opened her door about to say something, when her jaw dropped. Nanoha was wearing a towel dancing in the living room and singing to the music.

Not knowing what to do, she tried to sneak back in her room without being seen, so she could calm down a bit. Luckily for her it seemed like her roommate was to distracted to notice her.

Great, now I am going to have her dancing in a towel in my head all day long. Why does she have to be pretty.

Once back on her bed, she knew she wouldn't be able to sleep anymore, instead she went on the balcony. Looking down she barley saw anyone. Only two people who were running otherwise everyone else must be asleep, no wonder.

The music finally came to a stop and Nanoha joined Fate on the balcony.

"Morning Fate-chan. I hope the music didn't wake you up, I have to get used to someone living here."

"It's cool. Why are you even up so early?"

"No reason, I like to enjoy the whole day, especially since we are going out tonight, so tomorow I will be asleep all day anyways."

"Okay, that makes sense. Who are you going out with tonight?"

"What a weird question, with you obviously."

"What?"

"Yes Hayate and me talked about it yesterday, since you are new we thought we should show you around. There is this really nice bar/restaurant close by. So we are taking you out."

"Oh."

"If you can't that's fine too, I didn't want to push you."

"No no, that's not it. I'd love to."

"Awesome, well I have to go to the libary for a bit. I'll see you later Fate-chan."

Nanoha smiled and walked back inside. Fate sighed realising she has been holding her breath since the brunette told her they would be going out tonight.

Well tonight will be interesting. I guess I'll get the nurse stuff over with today then.

After an hour Fate was ready to leave to the University. When she was about to leave she remembered to take her key, with a smile on her face she made her way to the appointment she definatly didn't want to be at.

The nurses office wasn't hard to find. Luckily the nurse would be there till lunch time. Fate stood infront of the white door taking a deep breathe. Before she could even knock someone tapped her on the shoulder. Fate fell forward against the door.

"Oh my, I am so sorry. Are you okay?"

"Yeah, you just scared me." Fate replied pulling herself together before turning to the woman behind her.

"Hello, my name is Shamal Wolkenritter. I guess since you are stnding infront of my office you are waiting for me." Shamal said to Fate with a gentle smile.

"Uhm, yes.I am Fate T. Harlaown." Fate replied shaking Shamals hand.

"Oh please come in. I hope you didn't wait long,"

"I just got here myself."

Shamal opened her office and Fate followed. The office had a few beds inside and a big desk with a bunch of papers scattered around. She pointed to a chair next to the desk for Fate to sit down.

"So I know this is not something you want to talk about. I read your file and I just want to know how you are holding up."

"I am doing well."

"That's good to hear. Are you ready to start your University life?"

"Yes. I am happy to be able to, well do anything again."

"I understand. Are you taking your medication?"

Fate head shot up looking at Shamal shocked.

"I am sorry, I have to ask. Only me and Signum now about the details. "

"Yes I am."

"Good. I know you are staying with Nanoha Takamachi, you have wonderful roommate."

"Yeah she is nice."

"You don't like to talk much, don't you."

"It's not that. I just rather not talk about what happened."

"I understand, but eventually you have to talk about it."

"I do."

"I am sure you do, but I am also sure it is with your family. It might be better to talk to someone who can be objective."

"Someone like you?"

"I didn't say that. It is just a suggestion."

"I don't need to talk about it. I did something stupid, that's it."

"I can see I am getting on your nerves so we will leave it at that. I just hope you aren't afraid of asking for help. I will let Signum know you stopped by and we talked."

Fate got up and looked at the nurse.

"Thank you." Shamal was about to get up when Fate walked out of the room.

After a bit of running Fate finally was outside leaning against the wall.

Why do people keep bugging me about this? I am not some kind of damn risk or anything. I wish people would just leave me alone.

The rest of the day Fate spent in her room doing nothing but watch shows. Eventually she heard the front door open.

After a couple of minutes she heard a soft knock.

"Come in."

"Hey Fate-chan. How was your day?"

"It was good. Yours?"

"Great, I just went shopping. So since the bar is also a restaurant I thought we could also have dinner there, if you like."

"That sounds great. Around when do you want to leave?"

"Hmm in maybe one hour?"

"Okay, I'll be ready."

"Great, I'll get changed and get Hayate, she always takes forever so I am going to have to make her hurry up." Nanoha said and left Fates room.

Well at least the day can't get worse. Guess I'll throw on some jeans.

A bit after an hour the doorbell rang and Fate opened it. Infront of her was Hayate, who looked like she fell into a cosplay closet.

"You like?" Hayate asked with a wicked smile.

"You go out like that?"

"How rude haha. Of course I do, I made this myself."

"You made this?"

"Yes, I study fashion, so I make all my clothes"

"That's pretty cool. Come in."

Hayate jumped inside and walked to the fridge, grabbing a drink.

"Aren't we going now?"

"Oh Fate, Nanoha takes forever, so might aswell sit down have a drink while we wait."

"She said you take long."

"She did? Well to some people I do, but Nanoha takes forever. She never knows what to wear. I always tell her to just throw something on, but no. She wants to out shine everyone."

"Okay, good to know. Guess I'll have a drink too."

The two women sat down in the living room and took a sip before Fate got up.

"I am going to smoke, I hate drinking without a cigarette."

Hayate jumped up and walked to the balcony.

"Well then I'll join you and annoy Nanoha at the same time."

Fate looked confused but followed the shorter girl. Once outside Hayate walked to the side where Nanohas room is. She smiled and took out her phone. After a few flashes appeared the door flew open and Nanoha grabbed Hayate by the throat.

"What do you think you are doing?"

"..." Hayate was trying to say something, but the words wouldn't leave her mouth. Nanoa let go of Hayate but took her phone.

"You shouldn't leave your curtains open. You never know who might be lurking around."

"The only person I see taking pictures of me is you Hayate." Nanoha said in an angry tone.

"It was just a joke. Not like I was going to keep the pictures, although you do look really hot half naked."

"Hayate!" Nanoha smacked Hayate over the head handing her back the phone after deleting the pictures.

It took both of them a little while to hear the laughing next to them. Nanoha was the first to say something, bright red.

"Sorry Fate-chan, this one just needs to learn some manners."

"It's okay. It was funny." Fate smiled looking at them both.

"Well I am ready now, so we can leave and Hayate don't you dare do that ever again."

"You say this everytime."

"Yes, but normally no one else is here."

"She won't think we are insane." Hayate said with a pout.

"Just shut up. Let's go."

Fate follwed the brunettes and they started to make their way to the bar. Just as Nanoha said it wasn't too far away, but they all agreed to take a taxi back, since they planned to go all out tonight. The bar was small, but looked nice. Hayate talked to a tall man standing behind the counter and he pointed to the back.

"Let's go. He said he made sure we could have a table in the back." Hayate said when she went back to Fate and Nanoha.

All three of them walked to the back. Only two tables where there and to Fates delight she saw an ashtray.

They sat down and looked through the menu. After a few minutes the tall man came to get their orders.

"What do you want?" he asked them.

"Don't be rude Zafira, we have a newbie here." Hayate snapped back at him. Zafira lowered his head and looked at Fate.

"Nice to meet you, I am Zafira. Sorry for being friends with Hayate."

"Hey, what's that supposed to mean."

"Just hoping I can save at least one of your friends from your craziness." He replied with a smile.

"Nice to meet you Zafira. I am Fate."

"Zafira is Hayates cousin." Nanoha said seeing how Fate seemed to be a little confused.

After Zafira took their orders he quickly left.

"How big is your family?" Fate asked.

"Not so big. Zafira and Signum are my guardians. I have another cousin, she is still in high school."

"Well it's ncie to have a big family. How about you Nanoha?"

"I have a brother and sister. They help out in my parents cafe. Luckily they are not as crazy as Hayates family."

Hayate glared at Nanoha but didn't say anything. It didn't take long for Zafira to come back with their drinks and letting them know their food will arrive shortly. The three girls chatted for a bit until their food arrived. A tall woman with silver hair walked into the room carring three plates.

"Here you go, enjoy." She said with a smile. Everyone thanked her and watched her leave.

"Are you making any progress with ehr Hayate?" Nanoha asked.

Fate looked at them wondering what was going on. Hayate only shook her head trying to hide her blush.

"Hayate has this huge crush on Rein. The woman who just came in. She is just too scared to do anything about it." Nanoha filled Fate in.

All Fate did was nod and turned her attention to her food again. Hayate let out a breath and did the same, while Nanoha just smiled at them both. Dinner was eaten in silence, everyone enjoyed their food to the fullest.

Well now I can drink.

Fate put down her chopsticks and rubbed her stomache.

"This is amazing food."

"Yes, Rein makes the best food around here." Hayate said proudly.

It didn't take long for the other two women to finsh their food and relax in the chair.

"Mind if I smoke?" Fate asked, since she waited for them to be finished.

"Go ahead. That's why we are sitting here." Nanoha replied with a smile.

Rein came back and took the empty plates, she looked at the trio and asked them if they needed anything else. After she left Nanoha turned to Hayate again.

"Why don't you just ask her out? I am sure she will say yes."

"It's not that easy Nanoha, you are just lucky to have Yuuno."

"Yeah he is pretty good."

Ugh I hope they won't talk about that damn Yuuno. I better not say anything like Chrono told me too.

"So Fate-chan, are you dating anyone?" Nanoha asked.

"No."

"Well that's a shame, you are so pretty, men must be falling all over you."

"Or women." Hayate threw in.

Fate blushed and didn't say anything.

"I knew it, Fate has the sense to prefer women." Hayate yelled throwing her arms in the air.

"Hayate stop acting like a child. Hmm we should introduce Fate-chan to someone then."

"No that's okay. I am not looking."

"Well if you need to hook up with someone, you can always ask Hayate, she knows everyone."

"Very true." Hayate said with a big smile.

It didn't take long for them to all be a bit drunk. Their conversations were all over the place. Anyone listening to them would have been more then confused. No topic was discussed longer then five minutes before someone changed it.

Zafira came back with a bottle of Sake telling them it is on the house. The three women smiled and started to drink the Sake.

"I love this stuff." Hayate said while holding her glass up.

"Cheers to Fate, for being here with us and being a good sport."

"Kanpai." The other two yelled. The night was going by quickly they all seemed to be enjoying themselves until Rein joined them.

"Mind if I have a drink and a smoke with you guys, I am on my break." She said mostly to Hayate, who just nooded. She sat down next to Hayate and turned her attention to Fate.

"Hey I am Rein. Can I borrow your lighter?"

Fate handed over the lighter and introduced herself. Nanoha was watching Hayate and Rein, neither of them looking at each other, but still exchanging glances occasionally.

After Rein was done with her cigarette she turned to Hayate, whispered something in her ear and got up saying bye to the others.

"So what did Rein say to you?" Nanoha asked.

"Nothing."

"Hayate you are bright red. Whatever she said got your attention."

"Fine, she wants to come over tonight."

Nanoha took a sip not really realising what she just heard until she chocked.

"Wait what? What are you not telling me?"

"I didn't want to say anything. We have been sleeping together. It's nothing serious which sucks."

Fate and Nanoha looked at her in shock.

"Since when? Why didn't I know about this. I thought you two were still dancing around each other."

"I am sorry Nanoha, it is supposed to be for fun, but I can't do it anymore. I want more. She only wants sex."

"You idiot. Tell her Fate-chan, she is being stupid."

"Hmm I understand her problem though. Hayate just talk to her, ask her what if she still just wants sex or maybe more."

"Have you ever been in a situation like that Fate?" Hayate asked the blonde.

"Yes, it was good until it got ugly. We never talked about our feelings so we both got hurt in the end. That's why you should talk to her. Ask her what she wants. From what I can see you both have feelings for each other, so just talk."

"Yeah you are right. Much better advise giver then Nanoha, the only person she has ever been with is Yuuno. Nanoha why did you never try being with someone else?"

"I don't cheat and I love Yuuno."

"Fair enough, but you might be missing out." Hayate winked at Fate, lucky for them Nanoha didn't see that quick exchange.

It didn't take long for Hayate to be drunk and them decided it was best to go back to the dorm. They got into a taxi and drove to their building. Fate and Nanoha helped Hayate to her appartment and just threw her inside, hoping she will be able to sober up a little before Rein comes.

Once they got into their own place both of them fell on the couch.

"What a night. I hope Hayate can talk to Rein. They would be so cute together."

"Agreed, well let't hope she doesn't pass out before." Fate smiled.

"True that. We did have a lot to drink, glad to know we finally found someone to go drinking with, normally everyone else just passes out way before."

"Well you guys do drink a lot."

"We have to get rid of stress somehow. Don't worry, we won't drag you out every night."

"I didn't even think about that."

They both sat next to each other in comfortable silence.

I should go to bed.

Before Fate could even get up she felt Nanoha shift and her head resting on her shoulder.

Damn. What am I going to do now?

She wanted to push Nanoha back but didn't want to wake her. Instead she just sat there looking forward trying not to enjoy the warmth from Nanohas body.

I can't stay like this.

After several minutes she decided there was no way it was a possibility to stay like this. She moved Nanohas head to the side and got up, picking up Nanoha and carrying her to her bedroom. Right before opening the door she looked at the woman in her arms.

Well never thought I'd see your bedroom like this, with you passed out.

Slowly she opened the door and turned on the light. The room was nothing like she suspected. It was a mess with clothes all over the place, the walls were empty only small bed and a desk where there.

Wow, I thought it was going to be all colorfull and bright.

She put Nanoha down on the bed and removed her jacket. After pulling the blanket over Nanoha she just smiled at her.

"Goodnight." She was leaning forward about to kiss her forehead when she pulled back.

What the hell am I doing? Why does she affect me like this?

Trying to be as quiet as possible, she turned of the light and went to her bedroom. Her mind was racing, so many questions but no answer. The only thing on her mind was Nanoha.
