Chapter 6: Old Friends Can Equal Trouble
1 week later Normal POV
Smoothing out her clothes a girl turned to her older cousin "I'm out! I'll finishing packing when I get back" The older cousin nodded "Bye, Louisiana" said girl face-palmed "that's NOT my name!" "Whatever Rushi," the cousin laughed. 'Rushi' shook her head and walked out the door leaving her brunette cousin by herself. The brunette flipped through the TV channels drinking her bottle of whiskey until 5 minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
The whiskey lover opened the door to see a man with spikey pink hair and a women with ocean blue eyes and short white hair with a white frosted two layered cake. The whiskey-girl narrowed her eyes "Who the hell are you? I don't know you!" the white hair girl smiled "we're your new neighbors, I'm Lisanna Strauss and this is my boyfriend Natsu Dragneel" Natsu give the brunette a fanged grin "Yo!"
The women stared at the two then took a slip of her whiskey "is that so? Don't just stand out here and catch a cold, come in," the woman gestured to inside of her place and Natsu and Lisanna entered.
Examining the place there was a lot of boxes to be unpacked. The woman showed Lisanna the kitchen so she could put the cake down and Natsu strolled to the living room. There was a bunch of boxes, some opened, others still taped closed but there was a sturdy brown wooden Tv stand with a black flat screen TV. There also was a gray leather couch and a brown coffee table with glass in the center between the couch and TV. Looking at the table Natsu saw a plate of cookies, a picture of a small baby in a girly blue dress with her eyes closed, and a pair of red, heart shaped earrings. He picked up the earrings 'these look familiar' he thought stroking the smooth earrings.
He shrugged it off putting the earrings back down on the table as the two girls came in. Telling everyone to take a seat the brunette pulled her hair in a ponytail taking the plate of cookies and turned to Lisanna. "So, I'm Cana Alberona I'm 24 and sadly, single" she extended the plate to Lisanna then Natsu who both took 3 chocolate chip cookies Natsu ate all 3 in a blur and requested more so Cana handed the whole plate over. "These are delicious!" Lisanna covered her mouth with her hand to avoid spitting. Cana nodded "So Cana, were you in Magnolia before you moved?" Lizzie asked "No, I lived in another town" Lizzie glared at her greedy boyfriend as she finished her last cookie.
"Um… how long have you been in the neighborhood?" "4 days" Cana twisted her hair in boredom "I won't be staying though, I have to move to another neighborhood in 4 days" Lizzie frowned "Oh… that's too bad" Cana shrugged finishing her whiskey "Do you live in town alone" Lizzie stared at Cana in amazement of drinking so much. "No, I living with my younger cousin Lucky… no Maria!...? Suzie?" Cana rolled her eyes then smiled widely "Oh I know! Rushi,"
Natsu and Lisanna nodded, Natsu wiping his mouth on his sleeve since he finished all 14 cookies "did you make these? Can you make more?" Natsu asked excitedly and frowned when Cana shook her head "sorry bud, I didn't make the cookies, my cousin did. She's really good at cooking and baking things, when I cook it always ends up looking like something that belongs in a toilet" Natsu lost his appetite making Lisanna laugh and Cana chuckle.
The three talked for hours becoming good friends as the front door opened. Cana turned her head smiling "Welcome back Ducty!" The couple heard a grunt and turned around frowning at the woman in a police's uniform "Ughhhhhh! Why are you around so often now Lucy?" Lizzie frowned and turned to Cana "I thought you said your cousin's name is Rush!" earning a confused look "but I'm pretty sure that's her name" Lucy face palmed.
Natsu examined Lucy's clothing. Small leather shorts with a black top with was a bit too short and a black leather vest. 'Wow, she looks ho- horrible… DEFINITELY horrible' Lisanna noticed his wandering eyes and hugged his side. Natsu rolled his eyes "why are you wearing a cop's outfit? Escaped from jail already?" Lucy gritted her teeth "If you must know, I work at the police department; it's my job, you know what a job is, right?" Natsu narrowed his eyes at her. Lisanna looked down and fiddled with her fingers "We've been here a while, we should REALLY get going… let's go Natsu" Natsu gave a glare to Lucy before wrapping his arms around Lisanna's waist and left out the front door. Cana stared at her cousin who crossed her arms "what was that about?"
Looking tired Lucy slowly turned to face Cana "it's them" "them?" "Them" Cana gasped "oh I'm sorry Lucy!" I didn't know!" Lucy shrugged it off and nervously inspected the room. "Where's Loke?" Cana shifted in her seat at the name of her cousin's annoying excuse for a bodyguard "he'll be in our new place at least 5 days, no more than a week" Lucy smiled peacefully at the thought of a week without Loke, or as she sometimes called him (behind AND in front of his back) Mr. Snitch
Plopping down beside Cana, a sigh escaped from the blonde's lips "I have so much to do before we relocate and Loke comes, I need to go shopping, talk to Levy, give Wendy a present from Romeo, wash my hair…" Cana smiled flicking her hair on her shoulders "I'm ordering pizza tonight"
1 hour later
"This is amazing!" Wendy clapped happily "so Lucy's plan was to live in Magnolia? Pretty cool Lucy" Erza nodded her head. Gray smiled "yeah, I wonder when we could see her though, considering with Loke around" Natsu and Lisanna stared at their friends who all reluctantly came to Fairy Tail when Lizzie said Natsu and her have big news.
Wendy turned to Gajeel who was uncharacteristically quiet the whole conversion. "Uh… Gajeel-san? Are you ok?" Gajeel peered at Wendy blushed and looked at table shaking his head no. Erza stood up a bit from her seat "spill it!" Natsu raised a brow and turned to Lisanna who tilted her head "maybe it's about Levy" Gray sat quietly thinking about the possibilities then snapped "I know! You got laid by Levy!"
Gajeel's faced glowed brighter and everyone gasped. Erza patted him on the back in approval. Elfman, Lisanna's tall buff older brother with tan skin and spikey white hair who just happened to be passing by yelled "he's a real man!" everyone looked up in shock as they heard Gajeel mutter under his breath "this isn't a first…" Wendy made this weird high pitched gasp-scream as she buried her face in her hands. Erza clapped her hands excitedly "I'll plan your baby shower!" earning a chocke from Gajeel. Gray nodded in approval and Natsu, despite his relationship with Levy gave Gajeel a bro-fist.
Lisanna's face grew more and more upset as she gazed on her friends and laughing bf. She of her dream from this morning
Lisanna POV
'Huh? I can't move!' I looked around. I was in a big room; considering the vanity, walk-in closet and bed, a girl's bedroom. As I turned my head I could see Natsu and Lucy. Natsu seemed angry and Lucy exasperated. Lucy threw her arms in the air looking hurt and Natsu shoved her making her fall. Lucy buried her face in her arms and stated crying on the floor. Natsu stood there for a few seconds but bent down to comfort her. I opened my mouth to ask what's happening but my mouth was dry and no words came out. After talking Lucy still seemed sad, but better and Natsu helped her up. I was trying my hardest to call out to them, ask what's happening, ask what are they saying, but no words came out… Leaning on my boyfriend Lucy took Natsu's hand and they walked away, a peaceful vibe coming from them. Now I REALLY wanted to scream, but it's as if my vocal cords are missing.
Normal POV
'No! Natsu would never leave for Lucy, they HATE each other' Lizzie bit her gums as she fought her tears. Lisanna turned to face the guy she loves with all her heart 'I just want to ask him! But I don't want to rush anything? What if he's waiting for me to ask?' Lisanna fiddled with her fingers and shifted uncomfortably in her seat. Noticing this, Natsu pecked her cheek "everything ok?" Lisanna looked up smiling sheepishly and nodded.
Later Lisanna left FT early by herself due to feeling unwell "are you sure I shouldn't come with you?" Natsu questioned but Lizzie shook her head and smiled leaving her boyfriend and friends to enjoy themselves.
As she walked down the an open field Natsu and Wendy used as a shortcut to get to their homes faster Lisanna thought about Gajeel and Levy and sighed
'I wish Natsu and I were like them…' she frowned looking at the sky. Her face twisted into misguided anger as she thought of Natsu's apparent ex, Lucy. Blonde, nice/polite, pretty big brown eyes, nice figure… ugh! "I've been working up the courage to finally ask Natsu for almost a year and now this Lucy person is making most of it go away… I wish she would just disappear for good!"
Lisanna stopped walking and look down at her feet shaking her head at herself in her hands 'what did Lucy exactly do for me to hate her… what is going on with me?'
Hormones Lisanna, hormones lol
I got no time for an outro, thanks for reading! Ciao!
