Lucy's~P.O.V

I got to the café first so by time they got here I would be ready, I got up to the door and heard the normal chime.

"Welcome Mist- Lucy, you're early, what can't wait until Mr. Regular shows up?" Evergreen greeted and joked. I blushed at the statement and walked over to behind the counter where she was standing, waiting for more customers in her section.
"Oh actually I was wondering if you could take my shift today and then I can take one of your early Sunday shifts? Pleaasssse." I beg with a cute puppy pout.
"Fine, but Sunday you need to be here by 9am and don't be late or you'll be in deep shit with me and you remembered what happened last time." She said with a very, very evil and scary tone. But I do remember what happened to me, she made me wear one of the most revealing and skimpest maid outfit ever, I swear I was touched in the butt and upper thigh so many times, I was crying by the end of my shift and she was just laughing evilly and telling me to never be late again. Which I never will thank god.
"Just thinking about that terrifies me, I promise on my grandma's grave that I will not be late." I stated with a promising tone because only way out of being late is death.
"OK I trust you. So why are you changing shifts with me?" She seemed very curious, 'Well I might as well tell her so she doesn't threaten me.'
"I'm going to a college party with my friends tomorrow and we need to go clothes shopping. So we need to go today as soon as they get here. After I had said that the door chimed and I was hoping it was my friends but it was actually Mr. Beautiful and Sexy himself waiting to be seated, then right outside I saw Juvia, Levy and Erza walk up to the building and wait outside.
"Ever, you have a customer remember you cover my tables today don't fail me, I'll see you Sunday." I said as I walked to the door and passed the Regular with Salmon hair. I looked up as I passed and noticed he was also looking at me and we made eye contact and it felt like a bomb went off in the pit of my stomach. 'Why is he so perfect and good looking he made my stomach erupt with butterflies and my heart started beating 10x faster than usual.' I opened the door and right when I was about to hear that lovely chime Evergreen shouted to me.
"Have fun at your party tomorrow don't get too drunk I need you Sunday morning, bright eyed and bushy tailed." She had a really evil smirk on her face, 'I bet she thinks I'll be late so she can punish me. Not this time Ever.'
"I will have lots of fun, bye." I opened the door and heard the lovely chime that made me come face to face with the bright warm sun.
"Hey Lu-chan/Lucy-san/Lucy." All my friends had greeted me with joy in their voices.
"Hey you guys, sounds like you are ready to shop and spend" I said with a bright smile. 'This is going o be so great.'

Natsu's ~P.O.V

'She left me with another waitress, this feels like I'm cheating on Luce with this...this...this woman that I don't even know who she is and why is she covering Lucy's section' 'Dude you're creepy you're not even close to being in a relationship with Lucy' 'So I can wish' 'Yeah you can wish but that lady's coming over here and its too late to leave so you might as well just go to your regular table' 'Yeah you're right, but I wish Luce was here. Like seriously what take a whole day to do that she had to take today off' 'Well that lady said have fun at you're party tomorrow, what if its the same party Lisanna's hosting at her lake house' 'Thats a possibility but why would a high schooler know about a college party thats kind of private to college students specifically' 'Whatever but that lady's here now'
"Hello Master, normal table?" She asked sweetly, but not as sweet as Lucy's.
"Yes please." I said in a very monotone voice, I don't want to be here but its too late to turn back.
"Help my names Evergreen, you know I see you almost every shift Lucy works and you don't seem very pleased to see me as your waitress, you want a specific blonde. But she's shopping for a party so she left me with her tables. I'll be back when you're ready to order." She was surprisingly calm and understanding about how I felt. But of course I still had a furious blush on my cheeks, 'Do I really come here every time she works and they all noticed' 'Well you are really handsome and you do always sit in the same spot so ya I guess anyone would notice, even Lucy.'
"You ready to order." Oh, she's already back.
"Um, I will have a hamburger and soda." I might as well try something new because what I order when Lucy's here is our special regular order.
