Mavis POV

After school we immediately followed Wendy and our new target. To make it not suspicious we went there before them and just grabbed our phones to make it seem like we were texting. Occasionally we would look up to nod at each other and continue staring at our phones.

"How about we play 20 questions hmm? To get to know each other." suggested Wendy giving Cole a bright smile. If I didn't know her I would be fooled by her smile. I chuckled softly, rolling my eyes. Wendy might seem like the most innocent one but I know for sure she has it in her to be the most evilest one.

"Ok! Let's see, is your favorite animal a feline?" I'm not sure if that's how you even play the game but I'm pretty sure neither did they. I looked at Erza who grinned back, sipping her strawberry latte.

"Yes." That was actually true for once.

"Is it a Jaguar?"

"Nope."

And they kept going back and forth. It was like watching a movie really. Nice and easy, relaxing even one might say. But for us it was more than that, we needed to pay attention to things. I listened more carefully, making sure I didn't seem to obvious nor way too fake.

"Ok so are you 17?" I looked at Juvia who was staring at my coffee cup way too intensely for her to actually be inspecting it. She's either daydreaming or making a really bad impression of looking smart.

"Well, I am turning 17 in 2 month" Cole corrected her, the sound of ice rubbing against each other from probably him pushing the straw around.

"That is absolutely awesome" said Wendy with enthusiasm. Yes it is, I stood up, kicking Erza to follow who shoved Juvia. We stood up, and left just in time to see Cole smile sheepishly.

I smirked.

Cole only knows one meaning of it. While we sure as hell know the other meaning. Wendy will give him the perfect gift for his birthday.

About an hour or maybe even two Levy pointed out the closed curtains a car coming inside our house. Immediately all of us hovered about it, watching carefully as Wendy got out along with our new prey.

"Well look who's home." I heard Lucy chuckle.

We all quickly moved away from the window and instead pressed our ears in the door to hear the muffled words. "I really enjoined getting to know you better." Wendy's voice was muffled, but it was obviously hers.

"Well I can say the same thing, you're a lot different than what the rumors say you are. And I like it.".

If only he knew.

"I would love to talk with you more but I have to go. It's late." Wendy sounded almost sad. I snorted at that, pathetic.

"Its ok. Maybe we can talk at school tomorrow." suggested Cole, voice hopeful. I could almost hear Erza's roll of eyes.

"I would like that very much" giggled Wendy. Damn I swear she's so fake Barbie would be jealous. I moved back to the window to see what was going on. Surprise, surprise they were standing in the doorstep.

"See you tomorrow then." Cole turned around. I narrowed my eyes, the action was way too quick for it to be just casual. And sure enough I barely caught the way his ears started turning pink.

"Wait!"

That was when Wendy stepped in her tippy-toes and kissed his cheek before entering the house quickly. Cole just stood there blushing in full of shock as he held his cheek. All of us had to laugh at his reaction. Damn what a loser.
