Lucy was woken up by her phone, and it wasn't her alarm. Who on earth would be calling her at this ungodly hour?! Her phone displayed Yukino.
"Yes?" Lucy said in a semi-annoyed tone.
"Do you have anything planned this weekend?"
She rubbed her eyes to get the crusties out, "No, why what's up?"
"Come to Unofficial."
Lucy thought about it for a second before shrugging "Sure"
Yukino let out a high-pitched squeal and Lucy had to move her phone away from her ear to prevent any damage.
"Ok, I'll buy your wristband right now! This is gonna be so much fun!"
"Mhm," Lucy managed to get out, "how much do I owe you?"
"Don't worry about it." With that Yukino hung up and Lucy went back to sleep.
School flew by and next thing Lucy knew it was Thursday. It would be her second Unofficial and Lucy would be well prepared this time. Unofficial was crazy, to say the least. The drinking started at noon on Friday and ended on Sunday morning. The university Yukino went to hold it every year and surprisingly students from other schools attended it. Which is why you needed wrist bands. They were limited supply and would get you into the bars and clubs on campus for free. It included a free drink and shot at every spot. Only once though, so everyone planned carefully.
This Unofficial Lucy wouldn't make the mistake of wearing something skimpy. Although skimpy was her style it wasn't practical for the mess she'd get into while there.
Only one more class and she would get go home and start packing. Her excitement for the weekend made her philosophy class fly by. Now philosophy didn't have anything to do with her major, but she actually enjoyed it, so she was taking it as one of her electives.
Lucy got home and found Cana on the sofa, which was weird because Cana should still be in class. "Hey." Cana greeted her.
"Hey, you?" Lucy gave her a confused look, silently asking her why she was home and not in class.
"My class got canceled," Cana responded.
Lucy simply nodded and headed towards the fridge.
"So," Cana started "Are you going to Unofficial?"
Lucy took a yogurt out and opened it. "Yeah, Yukino called me on Monday to ask me. You?"
"Same here, well- minus the Yukino inviting me. It was Bacchus who invited me." Cana informed.
"Oh, I never knew him and Yukino went to the same school!"
"They don't. He's gonna go help one of the bars and they gave him an extra wristband, so he invited me." Canas' cheeks turned ever so slight shade of pink.
Lucy abandoned her yogurt to join Cana on the couch and hugged her friend. "Does someone have feelings?!"
Cana shoved her away "Shut up Lucy!" She pulled up a pillow to cover her face. "No. Yes. Maybe. I don't know."
"Oh?" Was all Lucy could say.
"It's just we've been texting almost every day since our drinking competition. I know he took my top as a trophy, but he's actually a good person. I don't know though because it would be long-distance and he isn't even in college anymore so like would he be cool with moving to Magnolia if anything did happen. Not to mention-"
Before Cana could ramble any further Lucy covered her friend's mouth with her hand. "Calm down Cana. I think you're getting ahead of yourself. Just hang out with him this weekend and see how you feel. Go with the flow, don't try to force anything."
Cana took a deep breath. "You're right."
Lucy winked at her, "I always am."
With that Cana hit her the pillow she used to cover her face earlier "Shut up smart ass!"
"Also" Cana added, "Could I stay with you and Yukino?"
"Yeah, I'll let her know"
She pulled out her phone to text Yukino to let her know that Cana is coming and if she could stay at Yukinos' place too. Yukino being Yukino immediately responded saying yes.
"Better start packing hot stuff" Was all Lucy said before standing up to pick up her yogurt and going to her room, leaving Cana alone.
In the middle of deciding on what she should take the front door opened. "I'm home!" Levy announced.
Cana was the first to leave her room. Lucy followed closely behind her.
"We need to talk." Was all Cana said.
Levys' face went white "Are you guys breaking up with me?"
Both Cana and Lucy were taken aback. Cana started laughing, "What? No! Are you on crack?!"
Levy let out a sigh of relief. "Well, what you expect me to think? The both of you came out looking super serious and then I get hit with 'we need to talk'"
"Shit, you're right." Cana scratched the back of her head apologetically.
"It's not that serious" Lucy chimed in. "We just wanted to let you know that we're going to Unofficial, so you'll be alone this weekend."
"Oh ok! Yeah, that's fine, thanks for letting me know."
Cana put on her best puppy eyes "Will you be okay?"
"Yes!" Levy laughed "Now stop looking at me like that."
"If you need us, we'll be packing. Right, Cana?" Lucy had a lingering feeling that Cana hadn't even thought about what she was gonna take.
Cana awkwardly chucked, proving Lucy right, "Riiiiight." She ran into her room and closed her door.
Levy and Lucy stared at the door. "She hasn't even started" Levy stated.
"Not even a little bit," Lucy added.
Lucy packed two long sleeve crop tops, a hoodie, two pairs of jeans, a pair of yoga pants, her black converse, and of course her toiletries.
Cana, on the other hand, was still struggling. "Luuuuucyyyyy! Levyyyyy!" She called from her room. The two friends showed up at her door.
"I don't know what to pack." Cana let out a sigh and fell face-first into her bed.
"Cana, I think you're putting too much thought into it," Levy said, making her way towards Cana carefully stepping over the clothes on the floor.
"What are you taking Lucy?" Cana asked.
"Long sleeve crop tops and jeans."
Cana sat up "Oh."
She started putting clothes away. "Well, ladies dilemma solved. Thank you for being my saviors."
Two hours later they found themselves at the cities train station. Although both Lucy and Cana know how to drive, they decided that the train would be cheaper and none of them wanted to drive back while hungover on Sunday. Levy pulled them into a group hug.
"Be careful guys. I'd say stay outta trouble, but I know how you guys are."
Cana laughed, "Low blow Levy."
"Am I wrong though?"
Silence.
Levy folded her arms "That's what I thought."
The train ride not only was long and boring, but it left both Cana and Lucy tired. Luckily Yukino picked them up from the train station. Lucy appreciated the fact that Yukino didn't ask how the ride was. Probably because Yukino herself has taken that ride to visit Lucy so she knows how lame it is. They arrived at Yukino's place and they settled in.
"Alright guys," Yukino was the first to break the silence "What's the plan for this weekend?"
"Well I'm gonna hang out with Bacchus, but I wanna hang out with you guys. So, if anything I can just text you guys to ask where you guys are?"
Lucy nodded. "Sounds good. We should make a group chat. That way one of us will for sure answer."
"How do you guys feel about frat parties?" Yukino asked.
Cana shrugged while Lucy said that they were "Ok."
"Ok cool cause Sabertooth is throwing one Friday night. Sting invited us." Yukino blushed as she mentioned her boyfriends' name.
Although they've been dating for a year Yukino still blushed like a schoolgirl whenever she talked about him. Lucy wasn't sure whether it was the honeymoon phase. Were they even still in that phase? Either way, Lucy found it super cute.
Both girls nodded agreeing to go only because it was Sting's frat. If Yukino trusted them, so would Lucy and Cana.
Yukino later on rolled out the bed from the sofa for Lucy and Cana.
The girls didn't wake up until about noon. After all, it was a Friday and none of them had class so why torture themselves when they didn't have to. Not to mention the extra hours of sleep would be needed for tonight. Yukino being the lovely host that is decided to make them waffles.
"Yukino these waffles are so good," Cana said with her mouth full.
"Thanks, I used my sisters' secret ingredient; eggos."
This caused the girls to go into a laughing fit. The situation somehow warmed Lucy's heart. This is what she lived for. Her friends getting along. Having breakfast with the people she cares about. Not stressed about school, or boys, or anything stupid. She knew they'd have to go back to school, but for the time being that wasn't an issue. It was nice having friends from different circles get along. Cana was her university friend and Yukino was a friend she met at an astrology meet-up. And although she was nervous about seeing Cana and Yukino interact she was worried over nothing since they seemed to get along as if they knew each other for years.
A smirk grew on Cana's lips, "Are we ready for tonight, ladies?"
Silence took over and they all just looked at each other. It was Lucy who broke that silence "Hell yeah we are!"
"That's the attitude!" Cana high-fived Lucy.
"Did it start already?" Lucy asked no one in particular.
Yukino nodded, "Yeah, it starts when brunch begins."
There ya have it, folks! I wanted to give Yukinos university a name, but in the manga the town that Sabertooth is in is unknown. The next chapter will be focused on Unofficial so drama, drama, and drama. & our fave pink-haired boy makes an appearance ^-^. I'm actually having a lot of fun with this universe, I know I don't own Fairy Tail, shit not even this AU, but it's still fun planning it. I can only hope that you guys are enjoying this cringe-fest too lol. That being said, see ya in the next chapter.
