A/N: I'm so sorry for late updates. I got stuck in a tornado of ideas. Thank you all for the reviews. I try to respond to each and every one of it. I do hope you didn't wait that long. (GOMEN!)

Anyways I'm okay. Exams are over and this week I'll be writing the next chapter so hopefully I could post another part by the end of the month.

THANK YOU TO yuichan1120 for the banner and reminding me to update. LOL

So here's a chappy for the loyal NaLu and RaidenXNashi fans out there.

LOVE BET

WRITTEN BY MEEEOOWTH

NASHI POV

"A bet?" I asked.

"Yhup!" Said Raiden popping the "p".

A bet? What is this little idiot thinking about now? It's been a long time since we had our last bet.

"I don't like that look on your face Fullbuster. So no way"

He sat on the bleachers and smirked. He ran his finger through that dark hair smoothly and gave out a sigh.

"Come on Nana. I'm sure this will benefit both of us."

Urgh. If I refuse he'll tease me in backing out of a bet. And if I agree, I know I'll regret something. But the offer is so tempting.

"Alright. I'll agree to this "bet" of yours if you lay out the conditions first."

Raiden smiled at me and stood up from the bleacher. "Okay. I'll tell you tomorrow but first I want to get lunch. Wanna come?"

"You don't have any condition yet, do you?" I said with a smirk on my face. I watched as his face showed slight panic.

"Of course I do. Pfft. I. . . "He sighed."No I don't. But I'll think of something just you wait."

"Whatever Raiden. Ja!" I said as I turned on my heel and headed towards the door.

"You don't wanna come to the cafeteria with me?" He said pouting.

I rolled my eyes and continued walking. "Naaa. I'll be at the library. And yeah, could you tell Lux that? Thanks.

EZRAL POV

WHERE THE HELL IS THAT PICKLE BRAIN! I'M SITTING HERE FOR ALMOST TWENTY MINUTES! HE SHOULD BE GRATEFUL HE'S MY BESTFRIEND OR ELSE I ALREADY HAD HIM KILLED!

I WAITED IN LINE TO BUY HIM HIS LUNCH FOR MY MOTHER'S SAKE! WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD MAKE A COUNCIL PRESIDENT WAIT IN LINE - TO BUY HIM LUNCH HUH? WHO?!

No other than RAIDEN FULLBUSTER!

I can't even come up with a reason why I'm best friends with that baboon! No wonder Nashi doesn't give him a damn look. AND HIS LASAGNA IS GETTING COLD! Nobody should waste good food!

Hmmmm, now that I thought about it, it would be such a waste to let this lasagna get cold and not take a bite.

Look at those thick noodles! Smell the aroma rising from the perfectly ground beef, spice and cooked to perfection. And the sauce that is oozing between it and mixing with the melting white cheese! Pardon me for drooling. *wipes drool from mouth*

Taking a fork and cutting a larger than expected portion, then when I was about to take a bite . . .

"I won't do that if I were you!"

"Aaaaaaah! Wtf?!" I was surprised by an all too familiar voice, causing me to drop the fork along with the precious lasagna.

"WHAT GIVES YOU WITCH?! LOOK AT WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!" I screamed at Lux. Pointing at her and then the lasagna.

"What?" She asked as she sat across me.

"You made me drop my precious lasagna." I pouted.

"Oh shut up! You're such a pig! And I know that isn't even your lasagna." She said.

I folded my arms across my chest and glared at her. "Excuse me?! What makes you so sure of that? Huh Witch?!"

I noticed her tense at my question. She bit her lower lip. She only does that when she's nervous or excited. I know because I knew her since we were two years old. She's also my best friend - unbelievable, I know!

There are the four of us, me, Raiden, Lux and Nashi. Lux and I never get along ever since. We just don't like each other but we're best friends - ironic, I know!

I smirked at her as I came out with an idea."You we're watching me, weren't you?" I accused.

I noticed a slight tint of red on her cheeks. "In your f***ing dreams you glutton Pig!"

My eyebrow quirked. "What did you say Witch?"

"I said you're a Pig! A boar!"

"Take that back you Hag!"

"Never you spinehfstuihvf!"

"Okay that's enough you two. Break it up." Then a pair of hands pushed our faces away from each other cutting our little banter.

I shoved the hand away to see who it was. "You Pickle head! Where have you been crawling in?!"

Raiden scratched his head sheepishly as he sat down next to me. "Well, you see, I was with -"

"Seriously, Pig?'Pickle head'? That's the best you can come up with? All you think about is food!" Lux interjected.

"Would you shut up! I'm not even talking to you!" I fired back.

"Woah! Hold up! You guy fight like an old married couple!" Raiden pointed out.

Lux and I stared at him like he had grown another mouth.

"WHAT?!" We both said at the same time. We looked at each other and scowled.

"SHUT UP!"

"QUIT COPYING ME!" We both said again.

"STOP THAT!" Again.

"See?" Said Raiden smiling at the outcome of his theory.

"Shut up Raiden."

LUX POV

I HATE EZRAL SCARLET FERNANDEZ! I SWEAR ON MY PET CAT'S TOMB! WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS?! Sure he's the president of the Math club, the Science club, the Astronomy club, the- aaaarghh! I forgot, he's the president of the whole fucking school, and the rest of the other clubs.

I walked out of the cafeteria before I could lose my cool and pummel that Pig. He only thinks about food! That guy never had a girlfriend! Don't get it wrong, he is hot, handsome and cute and . . . I CAN'T BELIEVE I SAID THAT!

Erase, erase, erase, erase! Pretend you didn't read that. Anyway I'm on my way to the library to meet with Nashi. As told by Raiden. Speaking of Nashi, she hasn't eaten lunch yet, something's wrong. Nashi never misses a meal, ever. She's second to Ezral when it comes to food.

I arrived at the library and scanned the area for Nashi. Realizing that she wasn't in the area, I headed towards the second floor. I climbed the stairs hurriedly. When I reached the floor, I quickly spotted Nashi at the far end of the room.

"Waddup Nash?" I greeted when I was a few steps away.

"Uuuh, no . . . I mean there's nothing wrong. Yes, nothing's wrong at all. Everything's fine." She blabbered and showed me a fake smile. Now I know something's amiss.

"Riiiiiiight~" I said and took the seat opposite hers. "But problem is, I didn't ask if anything is wrong." And I looked at her skeptically.

"You didn't? Well, I . . . I was just . . . telling you. That's it, I was telling you. Hehe."

"Uhuh, keep telling yourself that."

"You don't believe me, do you?"

"Nope!" I said popping the 'p'. "Now tell Lux what's going inside that head of yours".

Nashi gave out a sigh of defeat. The next thirty minutes was spent with Nashi telling me her little problem. It's no surprise that she sucks at PE, but failing? That's is a problem. And what's with Raiden and bets? He and Nashi have been doing bets on everything since elementary days but, it stopped when we reached junior high. I don't know why it stopped but something's gonna happen if this bet is gonna have go.

A/N: THERE YOU GO! CHAPTER 5.

I made it a little longer than the previous chapters to make up fo my late update. I hope it was WORTH THE WAIT.
