Today was considered a ‘girls day out.’ Okami and I weren’t too thrilled to buy swim suits. We all met up at the guildhall. We went to a Lucy’s house for morning coffee or tea, and they all started in girly chat. They talked about cute clothes, cute hairstyles. Lucy was reading a Sorcerer Weekly. I was next to read it after her. I was curious of what they did in those magazines. Cana, and Levy joined us.
After spending all morning in Lucy’s house, around 2 o’clock, we all went to a sweets shop. I bought myself my favorite cake of them all. Cheesecake.
Erza - Strawberry Shortcake
Lucy - Vanilla cake
Wendy - Jello
Okami - peppermint tea
Levy - Apple turnover
Cana - Rum cake
Oh man. That cheesecake was the best I’ve ever tasted!! This is my new favorite sweets shop. I was so happy with my cheesecake, that I ordered a chocolate strawberry cake. It was so good. I never wanted to leave the shop. Ever. But the girls were ready to go already. We went to a store that specialized in swimsuits. The girls tried on so many, and I was just looking around for a nice one piece, Okami had wandered off into some unknown area of the store. Lucy was the one who tried on the most swimsuits. They all showed off her figure, and her nice curves. Things that I will never possess. But it doesn’t matter.
Lucy was pretty much acting in vain. Saying that she was so beautiful. Wendy tried on a lot of 2 piece swimsuits, but my favorite on her wasn’t the one that showed off her rear. It was the one that was green, and a small skirt as the bottom piece. She looked really cute, and the one that showed some of her rear… didn’t seem right for such a cute girl.
However Lucy and Erza loved those. It showed off their bottoms. It was like they wanted everyone’s eyes on them. I just need a swimsuit that doesn’t show my mark. It looks just like an ugly bruise. I don’t want them to know. So a bikini is out of the question. Besides, I never likes 2 pieces. Okami ended up getting and guys board shorts and a one piece underneath, however it just looked like she was wearing a hoodie with shorts because she refused to be seen in it. Cana however freakin showed off a lot of her body on a daily basis. It was a bit strange. Levy was innocent…ish...It was a once piece with a low cut back and a little skirt.
I finally chose a sailor swimsuit. With some blue swim shorts to go along. Lucy asked why I didn’t want a 2 piece, and I just told her “It’s not like I would look good in one anyways.” After finally buying the damn suits, the girls decided since the night was a bit chilly, that we would go to a bath house. I didn’t know what happens in one of those things. I’ve never been in one of those anyways. So I have no idea of what to do. But I was worried if I would have to undress myself. In front of others. And my mark has grown to the size of my hand! So I’m pretty worried.
It was around night time, and the bathhouse was lit up. We walked in, and paid the fee. Okami sighed, and went to the far side of the pool, trying to avoid being around the others. When we got in, the bathhouse was sort of empty. All of a sudden Lucy and Erza were stripping!!! “GAH!” They told me to hurry up and wash myself. Oh no! They’ll see my mark! So I sat on the way on the right end, to hide my mark that covered my right side. I quickly washed my body, and I tried to use the bubbles to cover up the stupid mark. I washed away all the soap, and after cleaning everything, I jumped into the hot water in a hurry. Everyone was still just washing their bodies off.
I just layed in the nice hot water. Cana was messing around with Lucy’s body, and she was… acting strangely… Eventually they all joined, and I just sat, covering my mark with my hand. We all talked about things, and eventually came up with the topic of boys! They were all talking about what they wanted in guys. Levy teased Okami about Gajeel. Cana talked about having a small crush on this one guy. The fact that he can drink a lot. Erza already likes one person, and from what she talked about, he was really important to her. Okami just stated that guys are idiots and she has interest in no one. Until everyone asked me a question. Of what I wanted in a guy.
I was hesitant, but I wasn’t gonna lie. I just wouldn’t tell them who I liked. “Well… I like funny guys. To have a nice personality, and somewhat patient with me. And…” I don’t want him to be hurt by him…
“And what?” Levy asked.
“Someone that can save me from my greatest fear.”
“What’s that? Death?” Wendy added in.
I shook my head. “Loneliness. And the unknown.”
Cana suddenly surprise hugged me. I could feel her touching me, which I did NOT feel comfortable. I pushed her off me, which had me standing up, and I quickly jumped back down in the water. That was awkward. Turns out the hot water was getting to her head. Then the conversation moved on to Lucy. Erza asked her,
“So Lucy. How are things going on between you and Natsu?” My head went up, and I stared at Lucy and Erza.
“There’s nothing going on! It’s not like we’re together!” Please tell me that’s the truth… Is Natsu with Lucy? Please no… Lucy yelled out. But her voice sounded like it was hiding something.
“But you two are always together. He even goes to your house a lot. Mira somehow gives him the key.”
“I-It’s nothing! There is nothing between us! We’re in the same guild and all, but we are not dating!” Lucy blushed a bit. Without thinking, I blurted out.
“I don’t believe it! He never talks about-” I silenced myself, and sunk my head down the water.“Whats with you?” Okami asked.
“It’s nothing… Don’t worry about it.” I tried to hide my upset, sad face. Okami looked suspicious.
“It doesn’t seem like nothing.” Okami said raising an eyebrow and looking me up and down. “Did he mention any of this when he’s at home?” Okami mentioned in a low voice.
“N-no,” I looked down and lightly splashed the water.
“It’s nothing, I'm sure they really are just friends." Okami smiled.
“What are you two talking about?” Cana interrupted.
“Nothing,” Okami said casually, and she went back to the conversation she was having with Levy.
After all that madness in one night, we all said good night, and we all walked to our own houses. I couldn’t help but think about Natsu and Lucy. My heart dropped, and I felt really upset. What if she does like him? What am I going to do? It’s more like Natsu to choose her… She’s so much prettier than me. And she has lots of features. I’ve been with him since we were kids, but Lucy knows him best right now… I don’t know how long he has known her… I couldn’t help but to worry. I made it home, and I felt tears start to form in my eyes. Natsu wasn’t home. He must be in Lucy’s house… And they might… I ran to my bed, and I started crying.
I cried the night away, and thought to myself. I can’t just cry about this. I gotta try to have Natsu love me back. I wanted to think about a plan, but I was out of energy, and I just fell asleep in bed. stupid mark.
