We walked into the cafeteria, with Gajeel getting a weird talk from Natsu I can assume since they were walking so far ahead of us. Lucy Leaned over a little, waving her hand in front of my face getting my attention.
"Helloooo, earth to Levy?"
"Huh? Oh, sorry Lu-chan, I was...distracted." I answered trying to hide my pink cheeks.
She nudged my shoulder with hers making me face her, "It's cool, you just zoned out after you told me everything that happened last night. Where you possibly looking at a certain welding student?"
"N-No!"
"It's ok, if you were." She laughed shaking her head at me. "It sounded like you guys had a good night and looked like you were having an equally good morning when you guys came to the door."
"I have to admit, it was fun." I smiled brightly at her.
"You guys are so adorable together! When are you going to go out?"
"NEVER!" I wailed putting my hot face into my hands, shaking my head fervently. Lucy just laughed at me, rubbing my back.
"Why not, I mean, it's pretty obvious that you both like each other and you're the last person I know that'll let a guy stay overnight."
"It was an accident...I feel asleep."
"Mmhmm, that's what they all say."
"I'm serious! Please don't tell anyone about what I just told you." I pleaded, looking around hoping no one heard us.
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about your date with Gajeel. Everyone was wondering what happened to you guys when he basically dragged you out of the gym."
"Oh great, now I'm going to get looks." I sighed looking at Gajeel as he looked down at his cousin with an annoyed look.
He looks really cute when he's bothered, especially at Natsu. My lips quirked up in a small smile, as I gazed at the irritated manly features of his face. His eyes shifted to me making me panic, and look down at my plate, trying to scoop some eggs on my plate.
Crap he caught me staring.
I heard a giggle come from Lucy making me look at her. "You're in so much denial, Levy."
"Let me stay this way...for a little while." I muttered, knowing she still heard me.
"You can't stay that way for too long."
"You're one to talk. When are you finally going to admit Natsu and you are more than friends?"
W-What?! We're not talking about me!" she flustered waving her hands.
I giggled at her panic expression as she looked up to see if Natsu or Gajeel heard me, but lucky for her they didn't. Also lucky for me they didn't hear our entire conversation.
After finally sitting down with our food, our table was getting stares from almost everyone in the cafeteria, but not because of Gajeel and me but because of...
"Damn, can you not get your mess over here?" Gajeel asked as Natsu demolished one plate after another. He had nearly ten full plates taking up most of the space of the table.
I looked at him in awe as he shoved three buttered biscuits in his mouth, with crumbs flying everywhere. I've known Natsu for a while now, and it still amazes me how much he can eat in one sitting. He can basically eat his weight and more in food, he defies the laws of science!
"Natsu, you should slow down." Lucy suggested taking a bite of melon.
"You guys took forever to get ready! I'm starving!"
"We get it, but don't fly your nasty crumbs over here." Gajeel said, as Natsu finished off a plate.
"Aw don't be so grumpy iron head, you had a good night rem-" Natsu was cut off by Gajeel pushing Natsu hand that was full of food into his mouth, making him choke.
Even though my cheeks were red, Lucy and I burst out into a fit laughter. Natsu tried his best to swallow the unchewed food, before bickering with his cousin.
Once our laughter died down, Lucy and I engaged in our regular conversation about classes and our teachers, while Gajeel reluctantly put up with the constant crumbs flying his way.
"Yo! What's up guys?"
"Hey Cana!" I smiled waving at her as she approached us. She wore a crop top and capris, her brown hair in a messy bun, and holding a cup I'm guessing had alcohol in it.
"Soooo...What happened to you last night Missy?" she asked slinging an arm around my shoulders, bending down to be at eye level with me. She was really close to mine, with a curious eyebrow raised.
"What are you talking about?" I asked trying avoid eye contact with her, but that didn't work of course.
"Aw come on, Levy, spill! You left with Zombie here and was never seen again."
"You see me right now."
"Don't give me that! Come on, tell me what happened last night. Did you guys do the-"
"CANA!" I protested pushing her away from me as she let out a manic laugh, squishing my face into her breasts.
"I'm just messing with you Lev, I know you wouldn't let the big guy here into your secret fortress, just yet."
"Yet?!" Gajeel chocked on a piece of bacon.
My face was scarlet red and I squeezed my eyes tightly shut, wishing I was somewhere else other than here with my face squished in between Cana's boobs.
I heard Gajeel try to cough up his food as he pounded his chest, while Natsu chuckled at his cousin feeling the same pain he felt. Cana just had to show up and say something so inappropriate and to even say YET, of all things. Who said I even liked Gajeel, much less consider him as someone who would – aaaah why am I even thinking about this?
Pushing myself away from Cana, I ignored my hot blushing face, in order to look at everyone. Lucy looked at me with an apologetic look and Gajeel just looked down with his cheeks having a slight pink tint.
"Sorry for embarrassing you Lev, you know I love you."
"Love you too, Cana."
"I'll leave you alone for now, but I'll expect full details later. Anyway onto better topics, Natsu, what the hell are you doing?" she asked straightening herself up, putting her hands on her hips.
"Eawting! Whaht does iwt loowk wike?" he said with his mouth full. By this time he had demolished more than half of his plates, while we were talking.
"It looks like you're have an eating contest by yourself, and winning."
"You know this is nothing new." Lucy said shaking her head.
"You know I've been telling you for years, that we should put him in a circus act. He'll eat anything; I bet he'll eat fire if he could."
"He actually tried." I said remembering the night.
Natsu was drunk, and him drunk is like trying to babysit a toddler that wants to eat everything in sight. After eating everything in his room, Lucy's room and my room, he stared at the candle Lucy had lit in order to freshen up the area. She really didn't have a choice, it smelt so bad in her room due to him farting constantly from the 15 bean burritos he ate from his fridge. We thought he was just staring at the flame for no reason, until he picked it up and tried to eat the flame plus half of the candle.
Eventually we laughed it off, but not until we made sure the forever hungry Natsu had a full tummy.
"Damn, dude." Was all that Cana could say.
"It was one time!" Natsu defended.
"You did it more than once." Lucy said leaning forward, pointing her fork at him.
"What?"
"Yep! You did." I agreed, nodding my head.
The pink haired male just shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, then continued to stuff his face. He's not surprised with himself, and we're not either and I'm pretty sure it'll happen again.
Cana said her goodbyes, not without laughing at Natsu and grabbing Lucy's boobs, saying farewell to them.
Once breakfast was over we made our way back to the dorms, with the guys going their way and Lucy and I going ours.
"What are you doing this weekend?"
"Studying most likely, what about you?" I questioned leaning against my door.
"Not sure yet. I'm pretty sure I'll be dragged on one of Natsu's random adventures."
"You like them, so it shouldn't be too bad."
"Sometimes I do, anyway, I'll see you later."
"If you need me, just come to my study booth!" I called out, as she walked to her room. She waved before going in.
When I opened my door, I was greeted by a sad mewing cat.
"Aw, I'm sorry for leaving you alone for so long Lily. Did you miss me?" I asked scratching his ear, as he continued to talk to me. "I have to go to the library today, and I can't leave you here, so you're coming with me. Would you like that?"
He pawed at my hands, nudging his head against my thigh. Smiling down at my new companion, I gave him one more scratch behind the ear before packing up my bookbag.
I made sure everything I needed was in my bookbag, including snacks, water and a few things for Lily.
"Ok, Lily we need to have a talk before we leave. We're going to the library so you have to try to make little to no noises and try to ignore the desire to wander off. Also on the way there, you have to stay in my hoodie pocket until we get there. You got that?" I babbled.
Lily cocked his head to the side, then ran to me. Picking him up, I gently placed him into my hoodie pocket, before leaving my room.
"Let's hope we get away with this buddy.' I whispered, my hands stuffed in my hoodie pocket making sure he doesn't suddenly decide to jump out of my pocket.
Well this is either going to go really well, or really bad. What's the worst thing that could happen? Oh not much, just me getting caught with cat, and possibly being fined or sent to the board for disobeying the rules and I could also get kicked out of school. Yea, that is the worst thing that could happen.
