Hey guys, so I had this idea a couple days ago when I was hanging out with a friend who decided that we should end up cooking because it's a fun thing to do with friends lol. Thus, this fic was born :)

"Well that movie blowed."

"I know."

"This is why I hate foreign films."

"You hate foreign films because you're uncultured as shit."

The nine young adults groaned as the blonde opened the door to the apartment that she shared with two of the other girls. When the door opened they all stalked in and threw themselves on the nearest piece of furniture that they could find. The raven haired male let himself sink into his end of the couch, "Can you believe we actually waited three hours in line for that?"

The pink haired male next to him sighed, "I know. Who's dumb idea was it to see that anyway?"

Without hesitation the others yelled out, "LUCY!"

Lucy shrugged, "I'm sorry guys. I thought it was very Hemingway-esque..."

"You're Hemingway-esque." The pink haired male responded mockingly.

Lucy rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. She looked over at the petite bluenette who smiled understandingly, "It's okay Lu-chan...it wasn't all bad."

"Thanks Levy."

"Really? Because it seemed like a waste of time to me.." The long, dark haired male spoke as he fidgeted in his seat.

"Gajeel! That's rude!" Levy mentioned.

Lucy didn't react though, Gajeel was right. Her stupid movie had been a waste of time and a waste of money. She looked at the bored group of friends that surrounded her: Gray was sitting shirtless in the corner of the couch with Juvia hovering near him on the arm rest, Jellal was to the left of them sitting patiently in the recliner, Natsu was busy groaning in the middle of the couch with Lucy to his right and Erza slumped over her arm rest, Gajeel was sitting cross legged on the floor with Levy right next to him, Cana was sprawled out on the nearby bean bag chair. Lucy watched as the brunette clutched her stomach as it made a loud noise.

"Yo. I am starving." The brunette spoke as she jumped out of the bean bag chair.

The redhead shrugged, "Didn't do groceries. Nothing to eat."

Everyone groaned.

Gajeel scoffed, "So now what Scarlet? We starve?"

"I'm not saying that...but I'm not saying not to neither."

"Rude."

Cana sighed as she ran a hand through her long brown hair. She walked over to the fridge and the pantry, there was nothing that would be considered a meal for all of them but there were a few ingredients laying around. She smiled mischievously as she ran back over to the group, "I'VE GOT AN EXCELLENT CANA IDEA!"

Everyone looked over at Cana and groaned. "No offense Cana-san, but I think we're all tired of 'Cana' ideas..." Juvia muttered as she slumped over.

Cana rolled her eyes, "Pffft...whatever. ANYWAY how about we have a little friendly competition?"

Natsu's eyes lit up, "Competition?"

"Yah, we'll be in teams and have to cook a meal using the ingredients we have in the house...not too much because Erzie here didn't do groceries..."

Everyone exchanged skeptical looks, "I don't know Cana..." Gray spoke as he ran a hand through his hair.

Cana placed her palms up, "Don't worry about it. Everyone will balance each other out! Hmm...how about..." She glanced around the room, "Gray and Juvia, Gajeel and Levy, Natsu and Lucy and Jellal and Erza."

"What about you?"

"I'll be the judge!"

"How's that fair?!"

"Because I'm the hungriest...AND it was my idea."

"Okay..." Gray started, "but did you really just pick people sitting next to each other?"

Cana stuck her tongue out at the raven haired male, "Nuh-uh. Jellal and Erza are sitting on opposite sides of the room!"

"I mean we were the only one's left..."

"SHUT IT FERNANDES. Okay, so I'll sit here...you guys go cook...I'll give you an hour and a half." Cana chuckled as she ushered them into the kitchen.

So yeah, short chapter since it's just a little introductory thing that popped into my head lol. Hopefully, we'll be able to go somewhere with this.

As always, I hope you enjoy and feel free to leave a review!
