Finding Us- A MiraFreed Fanfic

Chapter Fifteen: Cana and Erza Find Prince Charming

Sitting in the Guild Hall, Cana feels out of sorts. It's been three days since she's had a drop of alcohol. It's been three days since she's smelled alcohol. And it's been three days since she has seen the bartender and friend Mirajane. Usually she would just help herself, but she's been really worried lately about Mirajane. And apparently that has aided in her sobriety. So sitting in quiet, Cana looks at her fortune cards and tries to imagine what her friend is doing.

"Cana? Why aren't you drinking?" Erza approaches her, curious yet cautious of her not drunk friend.

"Have you heard from Mira lately? It's been three days since she's served me." They look at the empty space behind the bar and neither can explain the absence.

"I just figured she took some time off now that she's not bound to this place any more. Why? What are your cards saying?" Sitting beside Cana, Erza watches the tarot cards and nothing out of the ordinary comes up.

"Nothing. They just have been telling me we need to go looking for someone."

"Mira?"

"Nah...That can't be it." She hazily says and then widens her eyes. "Oh! A boy! But he has to be single and fit for Mira. Ooo how about Freed!"

"Cana, Freed is seeing the florist. Did you forget?"

"Um...yeah. I guess so. Soooo, wanna go looking for a hottie!" Standing up, she doesn't give Erza a choice before she pulls her friend out of the Guild Hall and into town. Looking around, they see plenty of guys but none fit for Mira. "Man, this is harder than I thought."

"Well I didn't suspect it to be easy. Hey, how are you doing with not drinking?"

"Oh, I'm great. I can actually like, think clearly. It's totes cool and all, but I'm really thirsty."

"You know there are other drinks besides alcohol?" Cana contemplates this.

"Yeah, no. That just doesn't appeal to me. No." Erza shakes her head at her friend as they turn down an ally towards the market place. "Ooo! What about someone from the Guild! Like, um, like Macao!"

Erza shakes her head no and can't imagine what's going through Cana's head.

"No. Too old." Cana goes to open her mouth again. "And no to Wakaba and Reedus as well!"

"Gosh! How do you know what she's into?"

"Because I'm her best friend." Erza states matter of factly.

"You mean bitter rival."

"No best friend."

"But she wants to crush your guts out your butt." Cana glances at Erza's butt and snickers.

"Focus!" She demands and Cana rolls her eyes.

"How about Hibiki?"

"No, it needs to be someone in Magnolia. And no one needs to get that close to Ichiya and Blue Pegasus." She shudders at the thought of Ichiya and his Pa-fume lackies. "Does Laxus know anyone?"

"Um Evergreen, Bixlow...ooo how about Freed!"

"Cana- Freed is taken." She reiterates and Cana just blinks. "No!"

"Okay okay! Jees. Ooo how about that guy over there. He looks like a sexy nerd Mira would love to sink her nonexistent claws into." They spot a young man with blue spikey hair and round reading glasses on his face. His overall appearance isn't bad.

"Okay. Let's try it out. I'll do the talking." Walking over to him, Cana sexily leans over the books and flaunts her assets. The guy rarely notices. "Good afternoon sir!"
