Recap

Lucy and Natsu previously could not sleep. The two met up in Natsus kitchen and decided to play video games together to waste some time.

The two drift off to sleep at some hour in the dead of night. When they awake Natsu sneaks off making Lucy breakfast.

Lucy believes Natsu and her slept separately. He lied to her because he wanted her to trust him.

After breakfast, the duo worked on their project for a few hours until Lucy's dad called.

After this, the two decide to invite everyone over later for some fun.

We last see Lucy getting ready at her house, and going to pick up Levy.

Lucy's POV

Levy gets in the car, and I start to drive off.

"What happened the other day? You went home with Natsu?" She questioned me.

"We decided to do some of our project so that's why we went together instead. It was no big deal." In that moment I lied. I couldn't tell Levy what happened to me..

She just looks at me letting the topic go.

A few minutes later she brings it back up, "lulu. Do you like him or something. You're acting different lately. Like... alive."

"Thank god you asked. It's been killing me but I feel so weird around him." I burst.

"What do you mean by weird? She asks me.

"I keep catching myself stare at him, and when he's close to me, my heart races." My cheeks heat up as I explain my feelings.

"LULU! YOU LIKE HIM." She shouts at me.

I don't say anything else as we pull into his driveway.

We get out of the car, and start to walk towards his door.

"Levy please don't say anything. He is my partner I don't want things to be awkward." I explain before knocking on the door.

"I promise Lu." She calmly assured me.

In a split second, my heart started to race again when the pink haired idiot opened the door.

His onyx eyes, big smile, and deeply sexy chuckle...
I'm in trouble.

How am I going to be cool around him for 4 more months???

We walk inside, once again being the last ones to arrive.

"Hey babe! Hey bunny girl." Gajeel greets us.

I smile back at him as he pecks Levy on the lips.

"Okay now that everyone is here.. the games begin." Erza smirks evilly.
