It's Yaje and Shutora's 18th Birthday and everyone is celebrating with food and booze.

"Come on Yaje!!! Stop being a pussy!!!" Greige who is 16 at the time shouted as he drank another shot of tequila.

Quick note: Fiore's legal drinking age is 15

"Popsicle is right, bring in the shots!!!" Luke who just turned 15 a few months ago screamed. He started drinking last year after Iris' death. He's aware that underage drinking isn't a good look but he didn't give a damn besides he heard that Cana started drinking at 13.

"Boys." Shutora shook her head in disappointment.

"Hey, Tora~"

Shutora turned around only to face Cana Alberona who is obviously drunk.

"It's your party, let's drink." She slurred, slinging her arms around her shoulder and bringing her to a table containing Elizabeth, Asuka, and Amarah.

Shutora shrugged and happily sat and drink with her friends.

Rounds of shots later, the group decided to play a little game. 'Dare or Dare because Truth is for Pussies'.

When it's Shutora's turn, Cana smirked as she devised a little plan. You see, Shutora is a lesbian, the guild knows this, she came out when she was 16 Levy and Gajeel handled the news really well and are very supportive of her.

"Alright~ Tora, here's your dare."

"Lay it on me!!" Shutora giggled, her cheeks getting redder with each glass she drank.

"I dare you to kiss the person you are most attracted to." Cana grinned, her eyes glowing with mischief.

"Seems easy enough." Shutora stood up, she's at the point where she's very truthful about her words and actions. She'll drop truth bombs out of nowhere whether it will offend someone or not.

Shutora walked her way to the bar and tapped her shoulder.

"Oh hey, Shutora." Sylvia smiled. "How are yo-" her words were cut off when Shutora crashed her lips onto hers.

Sylvia froze in her seat, she can smell and taste alcohol from Shutora. Raiden and Elwin watched the scene unfold, their jaw dropped to the floor.

Shutora ended the kiss and gave Sylvia a wink before going back to her table. Sylvia on the other hand stood still, frozen.

"Damn." Raiden whistled.

"Pay up sucker." Damon grinned looking at Raiden his hands wide open expecting his money. "I knew Shutora had a thing for Sylvia."

Raiden rolled his eyes and gave 100 jewels to Damon. "You greedy bastard."

As Damon celebrated, Raiden leaned in closer to Sylvia asking her if she was okay.

"I think so," Sylvia whispered.

"You want a drink?"

Sylvia turned around to face Raiden. "Yes please."

"Mint Julep?"

"Nah, surprise me this time," Sylvia smirked.

"Alright then." Raiden chuckled and started preparing her drink. After a few minutes, Raiden served her a drink that looks like a smoothie.

"Are you sure this is alcohol?" Sylvia raised a brow.

"Trust me."

Sylvia shrugged and took a sip. She tastes a mixture of gin and vodka and a splash of blueberry flavor.

"This is so good." Sylvia giggled.

Raiden glanced at her while she enjoyed the drink with a smile on his face.

The Next Day

Shutora screamed as she ran downstairs. The memories of what happened at the party crashed on her.

"OH MY GOD!!! PLEASE TELL ME I DIDN'T DO WHAT I THINK I DID!!" Shutora ran around the kitchen where her family is seated for breakfast.

"You did." Gajeel took a sip from his coffee. "You totally kissed Sylvia, in the lips too."

"Oh God." Shutora's face grew red and curled herself into a ball. "This is terrible, how can I face her now?!"

"I don't think she minded it too much," Yaje stated which calmed Shutora down a bit.

"Really, do you really think so?" Shutora slowly stood up.

"She texted me last night, asking if you're okay? By the looks of things she's fine with it." Yaje nodded.

Shutora sighed in relief although she still needs to apologize to her.

By the time she entered the guild she looked for Sylvia immediately, she was on the second floor.

"Ummm...." Shutora took a deep breath before approaching her but before she could muster a word Sylvia greeted her with a smile.

"Shutora!!! Are you okay? You drank a lot yesterday Cana did quite a number on you guys." Sylvia said.

"She did make us drink a lot." Shutora nervously chuckled. "Sylvia, I just want to apologize for what I did yesterday."

"What do you- Oh, you mean the kiss." Sylvia giggled. "It's totally fine."

"Are you sure?"

"Positive." Sylvia nodded. "But I do have one question."

"Do you really have a crush on me??" Sylvia asked. "I mean Damon wouldn't shut up about it, I just want to know if it's true."

Shutora stood still and took a few deep breaths before failing to speak multiple times.

"If it's true, I'm totally okay with it," Sylvia added.

"You are??"

"I wouldn't mind." Sylvia smiled. "It'll be fun if we give it a shot."

"Are you serious?" Shutora looked at her skeptically.

"Yeah, I'm tired of dating guys, this is something new and I want to give it a try." Sylvia smiled.

Shutora chuckled. "Alright, but it'll be our secret, I don't want to cause a commotion."

"Totally." Sylvia nodded. "The guild is already crazy enough as it is."

Shutora and Sylvia dated for two months. They had fun but they realized that they were not fit for one another, but even after that they remained good friends. A year after, Sylvia came out as Bisexual.
