"So~ Lucy, I'm assuming your single correct? What's your type of man, Hmm? We gotta lot of nice looking ones around here! Just wait and see~!" Cana coos in my ear, while I notice Loki and Gray straightening up a bit.

Levy cuts in, "Cana! That's for Lucy to decide. You've been hanging out with Mira to much. Geez!" As Jellal and Erza shake their heads in agreement and slightly step to the side and start their own conversation. 'Are they flirting!? How CUTE!'

I then a reply, "Well, honestly.. I'm not really in the market. I'm focusing on my work." I say while looking at her from the corner of my eye as she's laying on my shoulder.

I chuckle to myself as Gray seems to relax again, when Loki yells out, "No way! A beautiful girl like you! That's such a waste!" He pouts as Levy adds, "oh knock it off, your such a womanizer anyways."

"It's not my fault I love the ladies and they love me!" He retorts while pushing up his glasses. Levy and I both snort while laughing as Gray pats Loki on the shoulder. "Maybe next time their buddy."

"Bo~ring!" Cana then sings as she sways towards the lounge entrance. "I'll catch ya'll later. Bacchus should be home now."

"Who?" I ask, "Bacchus is Cana's boyfriend." Juvia exclaims.

And so with a few new friends night falls, bringing the first day of my new life at Fairy Hills to a close.

~•~

The next morning I wake up earlier then normal, the sun's warm rays pour into my bedroom window. So I decide to get up and start moving for the day. Taking a shower and settling with leaving my hair down. I dress in a plain white strapless top, with a fuchsia shirt and anklet sandals. I then put on my favorite necklace, mother's Aquarius key. 'Mama's zodiac sign.'

Upon leaving my apartment, I've got my mind set on exploring the complex. Remembering Master saying there's a gym and a indoor pool, plus a library. A rather large one at that, Levy had mentioned to me yesterday. Instead of turning left to head towards the lounge, I head right. At the end of the hall I found a flight of stairs and a elevator. Choosing the stairs, I stop to examine the fire safety map. 'Hmm, seems I'm closest to the pool and gym. I descend down the stairs as the map showed and exited to the left. I push open the door that empty's out in to a hallway. I'm immediately hit with the smell of chlorine. I look through numerous glass wall panels, while continuing my walk. There in the pool is a long blue haired girl, 'Juvia' she must get up early to excise.

Passing the pool area is the gym, the two are divided by a wall. Still looking through the glass panels, checking out all the equipment is when I notice. Him, all I can see is his back as he lifts heavy weights with ease. I then get a glimpse of a light red dragon tattoo on his right arm, as he reaches up to run his hand through his salmon pink hair. On his left side seems to be some flame designs. I don't realize I'm gawking at the sweat glistening on his skin until a meow snaps me out of my trance.

"Meow~"

I look down to see a blue cat with green eyes rubbing against my legs. "Aww aren't you cute~" I coo, scooping up the cat into my arms. "Want to find the library with me, then grab some breakfast?" I ask giggling, while he places a paw on my cheek and rubs his face to mine. "Alright, it's a deal!" Smiling I walk off snuggling my morning company.

Due to focusing on reading his collar, I miss that I'm being intently watched by a set of deep onyx green eyes. From within the gym, the man tilts his head curiously and smiles.
