Levy POV
If one were to ever meet Levy Mcgarden and somehow managed to look pass her scary boyfriend and see through her innocent and childish innocence features. They would have found it wiser to stay far, far away from her. Though, no matter the distance or surgery you tend to do, if you are one of her victims then there is no escaping her, ever.
Levy was marvellously a genius in disguise. In fact helping her boyfriend with his officer stuff was the best decision she had made in her life. Now, she had files containing each and every personal information of the people in Fiore. Her hacking skills was amazingly fast and skilled, it took basically no time at all to prepare a citizen's life long file.
After all, there were cameras everywhere, and I mean anywhere. With cameras, it made Levy's job easier, no matter the firewall or how highly advance the security system is, once a camera is installed, everything is connected to her servers.
Which also included the cameras that were installed in Lucy's family mansion.
Now since Levy here was a master genius, nothing got pass her if she set her eyes on her victim. That day after the reunion, Levy was disgraced by herself for not searching up on the classmates that went outside of Fiore, she was too preoccupied with befriending Lucy again.
Levy never meant to had not talk to Lucy since graduation, it's just because she and Lucy had never talked much to begin with. They were always surrounded by the girls when they hang out, so she naturally thought Lucy was fine on her own because whenever they saw each other, Lucy would be talkative and smiling, like every other normal person.
Levy should have knew better than judge a book by its cover. Ever since she got the hang off hacking and finding information, she had one day been curious as to how the others had been doing, so she had went to…..well stalk them online.
Juvia had been doing great, she had got engaged with Gray and was doing fairly well in managing her company. Lisanna had a decent success on becoming a model and she too found out that she was still frequently seeing Bickslow, who was managing a doll service on his own. Laki, Wendy and Erza was doing well as well. As Levy had done searching the others, which was pretty easy considering how they all still kept in touch with each other, she had then proceeded to search into Lucy's.
She had expected Lucy to have a healthy decent lifestyle being in the journal department with a boyfriend Instead Levy had been shown a slightly skinner Lucy than before when she searched on the street cameras. She then spent the last hour observing Lucy's daily life. She saw Lucy just working and working. Her eating habits were different than normal, all Lucy would ever have for breakfast was blended coffee with whip cream. Then when lunch break comes around, if she does ever eat, she would have a tuna sandwich or an occasional onigiri with a side of fruit juice. Her dinner was no matter, the most largest amount of food she had for dinner was fried rice.
This wasn't the Lucy Levy knew, what had happened to the cake loving, burger steak fest Lucy? The one where everyone thought no matter how much she ate, she would never grow. Another thing that Levy noticed was that she had never interacted with the others much. Her co-workers were there just because. Lucy was never invited to a hang out or had she had any close friends among the workplace. She was known to be a hardworking employee, always settling matters before due dates.
Levy was stupid to have not found it strange when she and the other girls hung out, Lucy was never with them. She had thought she was busy and turned down Laki's request but apparently they haven't spoken to each other for 3 years. In fact Lucy hadn't spoken with anyone in the group or her ex-classmates in the whole footage that Levy was watching.
Lucy didn't have a boyfriend, she didn't have a pet and her parents were usually travelling the world and was rarely home. All Lucy had was work, her hobby included working as well, and on off days, all Lucy ever did was watch movies and play games at home. Levy hadn't seen Lucy in any relationship since she had broken off with Rogue Cheney.
Rogue Cheney was the bad boy type. You know the cliche, black leather jackets with expensive motorbikes and everything he owns is basically shades of leather black with white shirts and rip jeans.. He was the very definition of a bad boy, always wearing shades, confident body language and always doing whatever he wants, always dominating and puts himself first.
Too him, Levy had seen that Rogue just saw Lucy as any other chick that had that ridiculous thought that she could be the only woman he'd be nice too. Levy knew he was playing with Lucy and Lucy was as naive as back then. She had endured all of Rogue's actions. How he would always ignore her when she asks him on a date, and if he did agree, she would always be stood up. He had never appreciated Lucy's afford on looking pretty, it was the first time Levy had seen Lucy even interested in putting makeup on and looking fancy.
Lucy had made herself study various ways into applying makeup and dressing up in styles that suited her body curves instead of her own personal taste. She had spend half of her salary on outfits that looked super uncomfortable and skimpy. Levy had never saw Lucy that uncomfortable yet desperate at the same time.
As she watched the footage further, skipping through cameras and cameras on the street and hallways of offices, restaurants and shops, Levy had come to terms Lucy had changed for the worse. Levy didn't remember that the Lucy she knew needed to chase after some doof, the Lucy she knew had boys chasing after her even when she barely did anything. Levy had to admit that those boys weren't very compatible but at least they didn't stood her up on a date.
Then after skipping through scenes to months later, Levy had saw Lucy was walking on a busy street from shopping. There Lucy had finally saw that Rogue was kissing another girl in front of a cafe. Levy had saw Lucy gasping and running away with tears, like most cliche scenes. She had dumped the bags in a near trash can and ran up to her apartment and cried.
Levy had fast forward to 3 weeks later, she had saw Lucy finally coming out of her home in a black oversize hoodie with tights and slippers on. Her hair was in a fuzzy mess as she ordered a latte and went back home. After that day, Lucy had turned back to normal. She hadn't talk to Rogue since and only focused on her work.
And that was all Levy ever saw her do.
As mentioned before, as long as there were cameras, Levy could see it, so cameras also included the private ones in the Heartfilia Mansion. So Levy was thankful that Lucy's parents had installed cameras all over the mansion, including the rooms and bathrooms with an audio system.
She was enjoying the drama while eating popcorn. She had did her research on Natsu when she had came home from the reunion, so she knew everything that was going on. Months of footage and hack into call systems to gain the perfect drama show. She had watched the scene unfold when Natsu was told to be engaged with Lucy and she saw how Lucy had reacted when she was told as well.
It was so interesting.
When she had saw the idiotic comment that Natsu had made, she threw popcorn onto the screen and yelled at Natsu being a dumbass, despite nobody being able to hear her. She felt embarrassment for them when she saw the deal that they made. Despite being successful in the work industry both of them were worst than kindergarteners when it comes to love. At least little boys bully the girls they like, which is cute and all but they are plain adults, which is just plain stupid and entertaining for Levy.
"Hey shrimp, still stalking Dumb and Dumber?" Gajeel had said as he entered the room, leaned over and rest his chin onto Levy's head while handing her another bowl of popcorn.
"Thanks Gajeel, I was running out. Also, why are our friends such blockheads?" Levy had smiled as she grab another handful of popcorn.
Gajeel shrugged, "I told you he was a good for nothing hot-ass."
"And she's a stubborn dense vixen?"
Gajeel nodded. "They both make the perfect couple" and Levy couldn't help but agree as well.
Tada! Fast but kinda short Updates!
Now what to do with next chapter...hm...
