It's a new day at the guild and it was active like normal. Morana sat at the bar drinking an iced tea. There was a lot on her mind as she thought about yesterday's events.
"I even consider Lucy and Morana as my friends too!" Natsu's voice echoed in her mind as she sighs.
"You alright? You've been down all morning." Mirajane asked as she looked at the girl.
"I'm alright. Just...thinking." Morana mumbled as she played with the condensation on the glass she was drinking from. "Mira...am I a friend to the guild?"
"Of course you are. You may have had a rough start, but everyone here loves you." Mira smiled fondly at the woman.
"Do you think this one will fit her?" Natsu asked Happy. Their conversation was picked up by Morana's dragon hearing.
"Yeah! There's no way she'll say no to this." Happy snickered. That didn't sound good.
"Those two idiots are at it again..." Morana grumbled as she turned to see the two by the request board. They had devilish grins on their faces like they were scheming.
Mira giggled, "Then why don't you go watch them?"
"Why would I get myself mixed up with that fire breathing lizard?" Morana took a sip from her tea.
"Well you seemed very happy to be with them last night! There was a smile on your face!" Mira smiled.
"No there wasn't." Morana grumbled as she looked away. She couldn't deny that she did feel happy once they had returned to the guild. Especially after returning Macao to Romeo. Lucy kept going on and on about how wholesome that reunion was. Morana had to agree with the blond. Natsu on the other hand kept challenging her to a fight. Which ended before it even began.
"Come on! Let's go ask! She should have moved into her new apartment by now." Happy pointed out.
"You're right! We'll just drop in. Convince her to join our team and boom! She can do this mission for us!" Natsu planned out.
"So you plan on using Lucy huh." Morana towered over the fire dragon.
"Aye!" Happy said. Her threatening aura didn't seem to bother Natsu and Happy, which certainly made Morana seem harmless.
"I'm coming with. Knowing you two, you would burn her house down." Morana snatched the flier out of Natsu's hand and examined it. "This isn't a bad one."
"Hey! You can't just snatch things out of people's hands!" Natsu complained.
"I can do what I want. Let's go." Morana shoved the paper into Natsu's face as she turned and left towards Lucy's house. She already knew where the blond lived, seeing how Lucy gave her her address.
"Please! I would love for you to come by after I'm settled in!" She could hear Lucy's voice in her mind as she thought of that surprising invitation.
"Hey Wait up!" Natsu shouted as he ran after Morana. Happy flew to the air as he joined their side.
"Well isn't this a sight for disaster." Nab mumbled as he watched the two dragons walk out.
"I think this is a wonderful sight to see! She's finally breaking out of her shell." Mira smiled.
"Guess you have a point there." Nab mumbled.
***
The three of them got to Lucy's apartment early that morning. Morana had suggested knocking on her door, but Natsu had other plans.
"Natsu...Natsu!! Damn it you flames for brains! Did Igneel not teach you any manners?!" Morana hissed as she chased after Natsu, who had crawled into Lucy's bedroom window. Which was left wide open. It was a nice place the blond had, Morana will admit that. However, she wanted to be a mindful guest and come over the right way. This was not the right way.
