{Nobody's POV}

It was hot as hell that day.

There was no rain, and everyone was sweating... even Mirajane.

It was the first day of them all living together- and they all couldn't stay still.

{Lissana's POV}

The sleeves of my shirt are rolled up, and sister is in a tanktop... sweating. You would think Natsu came and threw his magic at us... HE COULD OF DONE IT WHEN WE WERE SLEEPING!! I BLAME HIM!! GAH!! Mirajane is sweating, but it doesn't make her look bad; WHY?!?! :( I look UGLYYY but she looks perfect?!? WHYYYY?!?!? {Even though Lissana also looks perfect...} My thoughts were stopped when someone shaked me vigirously.

The familiar voice yelled, "IT'S GETTING HOT IN HERE!!! SO TAKE OFF ALL YOUR CLOTHES~~~~!!!"... Bixlow? I turn around and... yup. It's that mage. How can he be fine in this hot hell day? I look at all the boxes and suitcases full of our clothes, personal belongings... etc. Evergreen has the most stuff; followed by Mirajane. Evergreen has 17 suitcases of clothes, and other stuff!!!! Mira only has 16. I have 2; Laxus has 1; Freed has 5; Bixlow has 6...+1. He's carrying my stuff... how kind of him. Elfman has 1 of his own; but is carrying 18... all of Evergreen's. Evergreen has a purse on her shoulder, and she tricked him into carrying everything by teasing him.

Flashback

"Evergreen, Mira- do you guys need a hand?" (He was trying to impress Evergreen).

"I can carry my own...", Mira told him; then she used Satan soul and carried them all at once.

"Sure.", The brown-haired fairy had replied. Then, she gave him all of her bags.

"E-E-ver!!" He yelled, annoyed.

"What? Are you not enough of a MAN to do it?!" She taunted.

"I'M A MAN." Mr. big and burly said.

"Then, do it.. You can, RIGHT?" She teased.

"YEAH, LEMME DO IT!!" Thus, he took the bait... baka.

End of Flashback

I shrug, giving him a simple "Too Lazy." He rolled his eyes in amusement at that... then I see he has his shirt off; because- you know, boys are allowed to do that- while girls aren't. {Reality is HARSH!!}

"...Plus; I would if I could!! But girl's cant take their shirts off, baka." That makes him laugh more; and from hearing his weird chuckle I just start laughing.

{Bixlow's POV}

She laughs, and I laugh... the moment is perfect. Her laugh is so adorableee, right babies?? Wait; I'm just thinking- I turn around for my babies and they aren't there... where are they?? Oh, well... they'll show up.

"So; you wanna try out that pool?" I ask- pointing in the direction the pool is in. Her eyes widened, and then she put her hands on her face gasping.

"YESSSSSS!!! FIRST SMART IDEA EVER, BIXY!!!" She squealed, jumping. But, Bixy? Bixy? Seriously? Bixy?! It seems like she's drunk... is she?

"GUYS!", Elfman and Evergreen appear... oh right; seven people live here- not just Lisanna and I.

"What is it?", I ask the two lovebirds.

"You know how there is a drinking bar upstairs...? There's also a disco floor!!!", Elfman tells us, excited- but you know 'manly' like. Lisanna and I exchange glances- we must be thinking the same thing!

"Bring the drinks down here- to the pool!! We can have fun- its the first day, you know!!!", the white-haired mage says... she must be drunk. Not what I was thinking. But- it might just make sense; it's been so much stress- moving in, getting settled, switching houses, that she wants to chillax... I'm fine with that. It's mixing both of the fun things here and merging them... it'll be a blast!

{Nobody's POV}

Lisanna, and Bixlow leave their suitcases where they were; on the second floor- too lazy to move them. They scurry through their bags, looking for the swimsuits they are going to wear. Each of them chooses theirs, and smile at eachother- and go into their rooms; leaving Evergreen and Elfman in their normal clothes on the second floor.

"I guess we're having a pool party, Eh?" Evergreen smiled as she said it.

"Yes! And it will be a MAN!!", Elfman replied.

"Hope So!", Evergreen told the burly man. They chat, and wait for Bixlow and Lisanna to come out; it was like one minute of alone-time. Then; at the SAME EXACT TIME, the two come out. Coincidence?

"We should invite Nii-sama!!", Lisanna squealed, clapping her hands in joy.

Elfman quickly agreed, and Freed strolled to their floor. "I'll invite Laxus-kun and Mirajane!", the boy says with glee. The other four, shocked that Freed was there, nod happily.

Timeskip

Freed runs up the stairs, saying that the elevator is too far away. He runs as fast as possible, anxious to tell Laxus about the pool party which Laxus and Mira MUST attend- no matter what.

"Laxus-kun!", Freed knocks on Laxus' door. Laxus strolls out lazy-like and slower than a tortoise, but with Freed's bugging, he comes out of his room droopy-eyed.

"WearehavingapoolpartyandIthinkyoushouldcomebecauseitwillbereallyreallyreallyreallyfunMiraEverBixlowLisannaElfmanandthesquadwillbethereyouneedtogoIwillnotstopbuggingyouuntilyousayyessoooyes??!", The anxious Freed says. Too stop Freed speaking, and because Laxus couldn't care at the moment, he told him "Hn, Sure."

{Mira's POV}

I lie on the orange couch, having fun with Bixlow's so called 'babies.' This will be fun, hehe. I could use their habit to my advantage with my match making and OTPS. These repeat what they hear- I think; I hope- so then they can say some things I want 'em too.

"Bixlow X Lisanna, Bixsanna!" I tell them, repeating it again and again, until they understand.

They FINALLY become my echo and chant, "Bixlow X Lisanna, Bixsanna!!"... over and over.

I hear a familiar voice... is it Freed's?

"So- that's the ship name, eh...", The voice says. Freed enters the living room followed by Laxus. I feel my heart skip a beat.

"Mira; we came in here to tell you that people are having drinks at the pool on the second floor." Laxus tells me, so macho. {I was eating nachos, sorry not sorry.} The sound of a pool party sounds fun, and exciting. I quickly jump out of my seat, anxious- and trying to stop my heart from running a mile a second.

"Well- We're going to go to the party, aren't we?" I ask- teasingly.

{Laxus' POV}

The white-haired mage skips away happily; obviously loving the idea of a pool party and watching people who can't handle their alcohol. Her hair glistens- reflecting off the window perfectly. I wonder... if it's a drinking party, shouldn't Cana come?? Oh, well. I look at Freed, then back to the hyper and contagious smile giver, Mirajane Strauss. Freed is just as anxious as he was when he woke me up from my happy nap; which I was enjoying. But; the sound of a party does sound pretty cool, and fun. Even though I couldn't really understand what Freed was saying during the time, he explained it to me later on the elevator.

"Where's your swimsuit, Laxus?" He asked.

...Oh crap. I don't have my swimsuit. "I'll get it now, you can go on to the party though." I waved my hand, dismissively.

Timeskip

I walk into the 2nd floor pool, seeing everyone who lives in our seven-person house. The girls are wearing bikini's, and the boy's are wearing swimtrunks. Mirajane wore the teal triangle-shaped bikini with a white trim that she wore at the Grand Magic Games. Lisanna wears a lavender ruffled one, Evergreen a zebra striped one, Elfman... well I don't know, Freed wears green ones (the color of his hair), and Bixlow wears ones with emojis on them that give him "SO MUCH SWAG", or something like that. My swim trunks have lightning on them. Mirajane and Freed forced me to buy them. They look at me and yell, "YOUR WEARING THEM!!!" which I wouldn't of even known if they didn't tell me loud and obnoxiously.

Flashback

"Laxus, Wanna go shopping?!", Mirajane and Freed called out, waving towards me. I shrugged- hesitant to the idea, but knowing I'd be dragged along anyways. It was more of a command than a yes or no question... it was coming from the 'she-devil' and Freed. We went shopping, and Mira had asked me if I had owned any swim trunks. I owned one or two pairs, and she gasped. Then I replied,

"Well, Sorry. I do not own nearly as many as the sorcerer magazine model Mirajane.", I told her- sarcastically, in a joke-like way. I thought that it might be fun... I was wrong; well it was OKAY.

She gasped at that, questioning. She thought that it was necessary for EVERYONE to have a lot of swimsuits, so then she took me swimsuit shopping. Freed tagged along also, thinking it was a good idea.

"OOH- THESE!!"

"No, These!"

"THESE ONES!"

"These ones!"

"Try this on!"

"Ooh, Try this Laxus!!"

I was getting pulled back and forth- every way. I went into the dressing room and 'showed off' every outfit, and either Mirajane or Freed disapproved them- it was impossible to get them to agree. Mirajane and Freed FINALLY agreed on a lightning one I happened to pick up... which I thought was ugly but would be okay to stop the annoying fangirls in the corner- plus Mirajane and Freed, of course.

End of Flashback

"Mhm.", I nod- realizing it.

"Wooo!!! Go Laxuuuuuuuss!!!", Mira squeals happily- holding the words out for too long; cheeks red with alcohol.

"Laxus-kun is mine!!", Freed tells Mira; putting his arms out and standing in front of me- overprotective and mother like.

"NO!! LAXUS-KUN IS MINE, AND MINE ALONE!!" Mira yells.

"OH?! WELL I'VE SPENT MORE TIME WITH LAXUS-KUN.", Freed throws back at her.

"DID YOU!? WELL, I'M AT THE SAME SKILL LEVEL AS HIM!!", She roars.

"I LOVE LAXUS MORE THAN YOU DO!!", The green-haired enchanter yells.

"I LOVE HIM MORE!!!!!!", The white-haired shape-shifter snaps back.

...I almost forgot. Mira was known as the 'she-devil.' She takes alcohol badly; and turns back into the she-devil whenever she has it... most of the time. Just how drunk are they? It didn't take me THAT long to change- I don't think. They shouldn't be drunk; let alone wasted. Then, in the midst of my thoughts I hear the two voices yet again.

"SATAN SOU-"

"MAGIC BAR-"

They don't need to fight; not over me anyways. I'm not worth it; I've hurt them, teased them, mistreated them, so they shouldn't love me anyways. They deserve better- I need to stop them from this horrible fight.

{TIP/Middle Author's Note}

I'm making Mira act like Ultear, I just read over it and I'm sorry ;-; And Laxus acted a bit like Cana... Idk- I was sick so I may of been mixing the chars up but- Oh well??

{Mira's POV}

I love Laxus more!! Freed thinks he can go and steal MY Laxus-kun... Hah. Like he's strong enough.

Faster than lightning, something from a black cape- with a white/grey trim, and much to long arm holes, stops us just by grabbing our hands. This- is Laxus; stopping us.

"DO NOT fight over me. I do not deserve it; and you both can find someone better. I love both of you as nakama- and I appreciate all that you've ever done for me...", Laxus tells us, stern- apologetic, sincere... I don't understand. Why is he apologizing, and NOW of all times? And was I just nakama-zoned? He then smiles, a small one and asks us a question.

"Now... Can I please have something to drink, someone? This day has been stressful..."

"Okay!", I squeal. I scurry over to the drink table... the bar was portable. I grab a drink, and make something for him. I think about what I've done. ...Did I almost hurt Freed for loving Laxus? I n-never meant too... well; maybe I did- but I wish I didn't. I'm sorry; have I really never changed- have I? Was everyone right when they called me 'The Demon' or the 'she-devil'? Have I no heart? I know how sad it is being lonely- yet I just pushed someone away from someone they LOVE with all their heart. I should be a matchmaker, not a heart breaker!! {This is how to be a heart breaker, Boys they like a look of dangerrr, We'll get 'em falling for a stranger...a player... saying I-I love you.... Sorry not sorry} I feel my face become wet; and I hear myself start sniffling. My salty tears fall in Laxus' beer- drip, drop; splash- splash. I watch the tear meet the beer, and watch the ripple in the beer. I don't know what to do, I'm sorry Laxus, Freed... Lissana, for being a bad sister... Elfman... everyone. A strong, burly, hand pats my back. What is this hand? What does it mean? Does it mean what I think? A welcoming? A sign of hope?

"Mira, don't cry; It's fine." The voice says- L-Laxus??

I nod slowly, tears falling.

"Now; Could you make me another drink then get out here and we can finally have some fun??" He asks.

I smile, and actually giggle, "Sure thing."
