Wendy's POV

Wendy sat at the table with Carla who was scolding her on her new dress.

"I knew it" she paced back and forth.

"Huh?" I had dozed off. This had been going on since Lucy-san had been offered to take me shopping and have a girl day, just us.

And Carla did not approve. Carla respected Lucy but she was certainly miffed about the blonde sometime, mainly her outfits.

"Carla it isn't a big deal" I looked up from my strawberry milkshake.

"First you idolize her…"

"What's wrong with that?" I interjected.

"Then you have girl days together. Without me" Ouch, I did feel a bit bad about that. But lately Carla was really on me, and I had no idea why, and it was becoming a bit stressing. So when I was offered to go shopping and relax I couldn't refuse. "You start taking her advice over mine…" Well to be fair here I was only comfortable talking to Lucy about something's that's Carla couldn't help me with… But to Carla that was a big insult.

"And Wendy just look at that outfit, did Lucy pick that out for you?" In fact she did, and it was cute and pretty. The dress was black and stopped halfway up my thigh, the top half of it was dark blue that made my skin, eyes and hair really stand out. And I had these Lacy stockings that stopped at my knee with small boots with a bit of heel.

But I wasn't going to let Carla find out it was Lucy, in fear of angering her more. Just then the blonde walked in the door much to Carla's disappointment. She made her way over to Mira at the bar making an order. Carla looked back at me.

"No Carla, what is the problem here?"

"I just worry about you, and Wendy your 16 now and I get that you want an idol or something but can you pick someone a bit more…" She looked at Lucy at the counter talking to Mira about something funny. "Mature perhaps?"

"I like Lucy she's nice and funny and she respects everyone, and she will never leave you behind"

"Wendy who in this irresponsible crazy guild would leave their Nakama behind?"

"I see your point but there's something different about Lucy you know?" Carla shook her head. Lucy walked over and took the seat next to me.

"What did I tell you Wendy! You look amazing!" Gushed Lucy. Carla pinched the bridge of her nose and mumbled something that sounded like 'don't encourage her'.

Lucy brought her own strawberry Milkshake to her lips.

"So Wendy I wanted to ask you something?"

"Yeah?" I loved Lucy I thought of her as my older sister, and yeah I did idolize her. She was an amazing mage. And a person, and had this way of drawing people to her and making them feel special.

"So tomorrow night I am doing a small girls party at my house and wanted to know if you wanted to come." I could see that Carla was glaring at me from the corner of my eye waiting for an answer. I don't know what Carla's real deal with Lucy was but I could tell that there was something off with her. But I had to show Carla that Lucy was a responsible person and maybe that would ease Carla.

"Yes I would love to!" I grinned. "Who is coming?"

"Oh, Mira, Erza, Cana, Levy, Lisanna, Evergreen and a few of my spirits"

"Can Carla come?" I asked sweetly. Lucy face was shocked for a few seconds.

"OMG! Carla I forgot, I'm soooooo sorry of course you're invited. I feel terrible!" I could tell Lucy was sincere.

Romeo's POV

I sat across the guild sitting with Natsu, Gray and Gajeel.

"Just talk to her, you already do already. It shouldn't be any different" Claimed Natsu sitting back with his hands behind his head. I was staring at Wendy Marvel, the most beautiful girl in all of Fairy Tail. Gajeel smirked as he caught me once again gazing off at Wendy.

"Lover boy" Gray snapping his finger in my face. "Take her out somewhere, she'll love it. All girls do"

"Yeah, that's true" Chimed in Gajeel once he finished his plate of scrap iron.

"What if I do something wrong?"

"Girls according to Lucy, will fall for you if you just take them on a nice simple picnic with flowers and a box of chocolate"

"Really?" I felt a bit more hopeful.

"She was hinting at something Natsu" Gray smirked. Natsu and Lucy were going out but it was clear to the rest of the guild that Lucy wanted to take the relationship a bit further, but the pink headed boy was too oblivious to this.

"What would you know about Girls Gray? You're dating a crazy stalker"

"Gihi"

"She's not that crazy…" He looked off into the distance with a worried look in his face. He looked around the guild as if checking for her to pop out somewhere. She was nowhere to be seen, Gray sighed.

"Did something go a bit more co-co in Juvia land?" Gajeel teased.

Gray nodded.

"What happened?" Natsu looking curious.

"Well we went on a date the other day and she said something that scared me" Gajeel choked on his second serving of metal that Mira dropped off.

"You? Scared? I always knew you were a wimp Gray, and scared of a girl!" He roared in laughter.

"She said she would give me thirty children if I wanted"

Gajeel choked again.

Natsu went bright red.

And I set a small part of my scarf on fire.

"WHAT!" We all bellowed together.

"I don't know what to do and I haven't seen her since I dropped her back at her house"

"GRAY! SHE COULD BE HAVING THIRTY BABIES RIGHT NOW!" Natsu roared

"Natsu it doesn't work like that"

"Natsu have you been given 'the talk'?" I questioned.

"Of course, Erza said that women have babies when they find someone they love. And Juvia REALLY loves you Gray"

"So you never had 'The bird and the bees' talk have you?" Questioned Gajeel with a smirk.

Natsu confused shock his head.

Gajeel and Gray grinned evilly at each other before speaking "Well when two people love each other very much…"

Wendy's POV

Lisanna and Mira came over to join us. Carla was still looking at me disapprovingly.

"This is going to be so exciting! I haven't had a sleepover with so many people before" I said.

"You've slept at my place a few times Wen" My nick name from Lucy. Carla glared at me again.

"Yeah but not with so many people"

Mira and Lisanna grinned.

We heard a commotion on the other side of the guild, we tuned to see. Natsu, Romeo, Gray and Gajeel in a serious looking conversation.

"When are they ever quiet?" Carla criticized.

"Never" We responded in union.

"Romeo has turned out quiet the looker" Winked Mira at me turning my face bright red.

"Oh…really? I haven't noticed…" I lied. And the looks on their faces told me they didn't believe me either.

"Wendy it's okay to like someone, it's not bad or anything" Lisanna put her hand on my arm comfortingly. Carla narrowed her eyes on me, unsure if she believed I had feelings for Romeo or not.

"I know, it's completely natural I'm not oblivious like Natsu-san" Lucy turned red at this making Mira chuckle.

"Yeah how are things moving with you and Natsu, Luce?" Lisanna asked. There had been a rift between Lucy and Lisanna a few years ago but nothing bad, Lisanna was now dating Sting and Lucy was dating Natsu.

"Well he's still an obnoxious pink haired baka but I think we might be making some progress"

"Really?!" We said together, even Carla looked surprised.

"Yeah, but I want to go a bit faster, is that bad? I know we might be going a good pace for Natsu but I want to go a bit further in our relationship"

"I don't think that's bad Luce, Natsu is just oblivious and maybe taking charge and showing what the next step is, might be the only way to get there. And what is the next step?" Mira questioned.

Lucy went red at this and just shook her head, refusing to answer.

"Ohhhh…." We caught on.

"Yeah, you're gonna have to take charge on this one. Natsu won't unless we leave him with Cana's stash of Alcohol and a naughty book to heat things up" Mused Mira in deep thought. Mira was a closeted pervert.

"MIRA!" She only smiled devilishly.

"Well to get things on a more innocent topic of guys, how are things between you and Romeo?" Lisanna asked.

"Yeah good, but were kind of in that friend zone thing and I want to get out of it" I felt very open talking to them about this, and they didn't bother talking to me like I was a perfect angel with a virgin mind. Witnessing many Fairy Tail parties my mind was anything but innocent anymore.

"Wendy your too young to be dating" Carla would take on the role of being my mother went she felt it was necessary. I loved her and thought of her as my sister but sometimes it was ridiculous to live up to her high standards she has of me.

"No, sixteen is the perfect age really. She can date" Lucy came to my rescue. Carla fixed Lucy with a glare i hadn't thought didn't exist.

"Well friend zone can be a bit hard, how close are you? What do you do together?" Mira asked.

"We catch movies sometimes, I go over to his house-"

"WENDY!" Carla bellowed.

"WHAT!?" Lisanna shocked

"SINCE WHEN?!"Lucy asked.

"ROWEN!" Mira screeched who was in fan girl mode, swaying slightly.

I blushed the colour of Erza's hair.

"N-not to do anything bad, we just play games on his Lacrima. His dad makes us leave the door open anyway"

"How long has this been going on?"

"A year and a half"

"That long in friend zone?" Lisanna gave me a sympathetic look patting my hand.

"You're almost as bad a Lucy and Natsu" Mira added.

"HEY!"

"But you can get out of it" Mira ignoring Lucy's small outburst. Carla just stared at me in shock.

"What do I do?"
