It was couples movie night in the Fairy Tail dorms, which meant two things. The first was that it was the last week of the month, when everyone came home from their missions. And two, there would be arguing. And lots of it.

"Boys pick the movie!" Natsu yelled as he jumped over the couch to rush to the television lacrima.

"If I remember correctly, boys picked last time Natsu." Erza said calmly as the girls filed into the lobby.

Tonight Gray, Juvia, Cana, Laxus, Natsu, Lucy, Gajeel, Levy, Mira, Freed, Erza, Jellal, Cana, Laxus, Evergreen, and Elfman all came together for the hang out. With separate sides of the dorms, couples night would take place in the middle of the building, which happened to be the small living room with couches scattered about. The room was fair sized with lightly painted walls, dark brown curtains that worked wonders for an at home movie theater, and a throw rug. It was far from fancy, but the stains around the room told a story.

"No way!" Gray chimed in. "I remember girls picked last time because it was Mavis is Sabertooth, that lame chick flick about that magic girl who was forced to join a dark guild to pay off her father's debt. Then she fell in love with the meanest toughest guy ever to set foot in the guild with tattoos and studs all over his body, but then deep down he was actually as cuddly as a teddy bear." Gray lectured as he saw Levy nudge Gajeel's side out of the corner of his eye. "Its definitely the boys pick, and I think we should go for The Nightmare Ogre's Rade. Lots of fight scenes." Gray smiled as he crossed his arms over his freshly naked chest.

"That was two movie nights ago!" Lucy said, grabbing everyone's attention. "I remember because Natsu sneezed and popcorn hit the ceiling." She said as she pointed to the light yellow stain above her.

"Lets just let the girls pick this time guys." Laxus spoke up. "It will save the fighting, and maybe we can actually enjoy couples night for a change." He sighed remembering how once they argued until the sun came up and completely missed couples night.

"I agree with Laxus!" Freed agreed, as expected.

"Juvia always enjoys couples night." Juvia whispered quiet enough for only the three dragon slayers to hear.

"Alright, so what'll it be girls?" Gray asked.

"There's a new documentary out on maintaining swords and armor I've been dying to see!" Erza suggested.

"How about a love story with lots of rivals?" Juvia suggested.

"A movie of the book!" Levy chimed in.

"Something to do with the stars..." Lucy added.

"Rivals for the title of queen!" Evergreen said as she glades at Erza who didn't seem to notice.

"I'm good with whatever." Cana said.

"Me too." Mira added.

"So," Gray said.

"A movie about a book," Gajeel added.

"With love rivals," Gray said again.

"Who are battling to be queen," Elfman replied.

"With stars," Natsu said.

"And swords." Jellal added quietly.

"That's very specific." Gray said as he looked through the movie collection with Natsu.

"Lucky you." Gray said. "I knew we had it." He said as he pulled out a movie case with light blue working that the girls could read from where they were standing. "It's called Gaining Royalty Back. It's about a princess who gets overthrown by her love rival," Gray looked to Evergreen then Juvia. "Leaves the town to meet a star gazer," He directed his gaze to Lucy. "Falls in love with him, and he teaches her to protect herself with swords," He looked towards Erza. "And its all based off of a book." He added looking at Levy. "Does that sound good?" Gray asked.

"Not really." Cana said as she sat down on the couch. "But whatever, lets go." She said as everyone chose a couch.

Not that they had to, it was an unspoken rule that all the couples had a couch where they would sit every movie night. Juvia and Gray sat by the window while Natsu and Lucy sat towards the back near Levy and Gajeel. Laxus and Cana sat in the middle, although they rarely stayed for the whole movie because one of them got horny and the other had to leave to 'take care of them'- as they put it. Elfman and Evergreen sat towards the back while Mira and Freed stayed in the middle by Cana and Laxus. Lastly, Erza and Jellal usually sat in the front as well as Juvia and Gray. After all, Jellal was a gentleman and never acted friskily outside of the bedroom, thus they both concentrated on the movie.

"Will you hit the lights Gajeel?" Gray asked as he popped the DVD into the player and the lacrima started.

"Sure, iceboy." Gajeel said as he got up and the room darkened seconds later. Gajeel walked back to his seat as the dark room was soon lit up by the bright blue menu. He sat back down on the couch and made himself comfortable with his left arm slung over the top, allowing Levy so snuggle into his side and rest her head on his chest. The music started playing, and all the couples scooted closer, ready for movie night to begin.


"Hey Natsu. Pssst! Natsu!" Gray said.

"Yo Gray, shhh!" Natsu shushed his friend. "Lucy fell asleep, be quiet snowflake."

"Oh shut up firefly." Gray shot an insult back. "Juvia fell asleep too."

"If you haven't noticed, all the girls fell asleep." Elfman said.

"That's not entirely true boys." Cana said, leaning on Laxus' chest with her eyes closed. "All the girls including Freed are asleep." She laughed quietly at her own joke. "But now that you mention it." Cana added as she sat up and stretched her arms. "Im parched, Im going to get some booze, be back in thirty."

"No one said anything about alcohol." Jellal stated.

"Don't pick out the details." Cana yawned as she slipped on her jacket and grabbed her back before she left into the spring air.

"Well now I'm bored." Laxus said.

"Lets go to the man cave or something better than this lame-ass movie." Gajeel said.

"I agree, there's not enough testosterone in here." Laxus said in monotone.

Natsu yawned before adding "Alright, lets go before we wake them all up."


"That will be fourteen dollars miss." The cashier said to Cana. "Miss?" He said again.

"Oh! Sorry, I'm dozing off." She said as she rummaged through her purse for the money. "Sorry about that, its been a late night."

She collected her change from the man before grabbing the paper bag filled with her new activity for the night. Maybe I'll have a drinking challenge with Laxus again soon. She looked into the bag. Although not tonight. I only got two six packs. That's not even enough for me to get a good buzz going. She thought about beer the whole way back until she ended up at the Fairy Tail Dorms. Here already, eh? She thought to herself as she opened the dorms and walked into the main entrance.

She hung up her jacket, and took a left down the hall to the movie room. Walking in, Cana was faced with an odd picture. The girls were all right where she had left them- sleeping on the couches. However the boys, with the exception of Freed, were nowhere to be seen. Cana took off her shoes, and walked quietly around the room to Mira, shaking her shoulder slightly. However, it backfired, and Freed shot his eyes open, scaring Cana.

"Geez Freed!" Cana whisper yelled. "You scared me half to death.

"Wha-" Freed rubbed his eyes as he said up, and looked around. The movie was off, a few dim lights were lit around the room, and the couches were half empty.

"I just need to wake up Mira to go get the boys. I don't want to wake up Erza." She said.

"I see. Where did Laxus go?" Freed said, worrying about his teammate.

"With the other boys probably." Cana said plainly.

"Ah..." Freed said, realizing his question was a bit vague.

"Mira... Mira~" Cana cooed into the white headed she-devil's ear. "Wake up please." Cana said nicely.

"Oh." Mira said quietly as she lifted her body up off the couch by one hand while the other rubbed her eye. "Hello there Cana. Do you need something? I must have dozed off..."

"I just wanted to tell you that all the boys left." She said. "Well, except Freed." She added as Freed stretched his arms.

"The boys left?" She asked, awake now she jumped off the couch. Mira looked around the room before coming to a realization. "I know where they went." She said. "I'll be right back Cana, just sit tight." She concluded. "You should go up to bed, Freed." Mira said as she kissed the top of his head, and went to find the boys.

Freed nodded tiredly, like a small child, and slowly made his way to the boys staircase.

"You don't have to tell me twice." Cana said as she opened a beer, and laid down on her usual couch. Cana hummed one of her favorite songs and wiggled her feet as she sipped the beer slowly. After all, it was late and she would go to bed soon. Right as Cana reached the second verse, she heard Mira's feet coming towards her. From what she could hear, Mira wasn't so much as running, but she did have some pep in her step.

"Oh my." Mira said talking to herself as she rounded the corner and entered the lounge once again.

"Cana, you have to come see this, let's wake the other girls." Cana noticed Mira was giggling slightly but brushed it off.

She went over to Evergreen and nudged her with her knee.

"Yo, don't make me put don't my beer." She said as Evergreen moaned slightly, telling whomever was trying to wake her to stop. "Ever... I swear" Cana said. "Fine." Cana took another sip of her beer before flattening her free hand till it was as straight as an arrow and swinging it until it made contacts with Evergreen's cheek.

"OW!" Evergreen screamed as she sat up. "What in the world was that for Cana!" She said as her hand found her cheek, touching it lightly her face cringes at the contact.

"Be quiet, I ca hear you and Elfman sometimes and I know he smacks your ass harder than that."

Evergreen immediately shut her mouth, and looked around the room at Mira as she woke up the other girls with a gentle nudge. Cana tilted the beer back and took the last sip before walking over to get another.

"Hold on Cana, don't take another just yet." Mira said.

"Why not?" Cana asked.

"You might spit it out laughing when you see the boys." Mira said, giggling as she remembered the scene she left.

"I doubt it, I'll take that chance." Cana said as she opened the beer to the familiar hissing sound.

"Where'd Natsu go?" Lucy said as Mira woke her up.

"Hold on, I'll explain in a second when all the girls are awake." Mira said.

Moments later, all the girls were standing around Mira, ready to learn where the boys were.

"Okay, so all the boys snuck away..." Mira started telling the story but broke out into laughter. "And- and," Mira struggles to get her words out as the laughter took her breath away. "Ok- ok. I'm, I'm good. So the boys are in the-" Again Mira laughed, and the girls sighed.

"Why don't we just all go and see for ourselves." Levy suggested.

"Yeah, yeah, okay." Mira said as she wiped a tear away from her eye. "They went to their man cave." Mira said as she let out a single chuckle before sniffling.

"It must be really good to make Mira laugh this much." Cana said to Lucy.

"I know, I cant wait to see what happened." Lucy said, not bothering to hide the excitement in her voice.

The girls walked down a set of stairs, and ended up in the basement of the boys side of the dorms.

The boys finshed the basement and made it into what they called "The man cave". It was nothing too fancy. The door was made of a light wood, with dark words carved into it that read "THE MAN CAVE." It was very self explanatory. The ladies opened the door, and were greeted by the familiar scent of men. Not the bad odor that comes off of their shoes, but the irresistible scent of a freshly shaven man. The scent that dry panties stand no chance against. As some of the more innocent girls blushed at the scent, they walked in. The man cave was usually kept clean with vacuumed carpets, organized books, all trash in an actual garbage can, neatly stacked bean bag chairs and a large well-maintained pool table to the side. When the girls heard that the boys made a man cave they expected retched odor, trash and beer cans everywhere, the familiar orange 'Cheetos' dusk coating everything with no promise of ever being able to see the floor. However, they were happily surprised when they always found it cleaned.

"So from what I see, I can guess that all the girls fell asleep, and the boys got bored and came here. They were probably talking, and fell asleep on the floor." Mira said.

The girls looked at the boys all sitting on bean bag chairs scattered around on the red rug. However something was off about how the boys were sleeping. Natsu and Gray were curled up into little balls in their bean bags, while Elfman, Laxus, and Gajeel were stretched out almost straight. Jellal was sleeping sitting up against a wall with his feet out in front of him and his head slumped down. Not only were the boys sitting oddly, but they had something on their heads.

"Mira," Lucy asked.

"Are the boys," Levy continued.

"Wearing cat ears?" Erza finished.

"I'm so taking a picture." Cana said as she rummaged around her bag for a camera.

Levy walked over towards Gajeel, and noticed something else.

"They have tails!" Levy said, and started laughing before she slammed her hand over her mouth. "Sorry." She whispered as she looked to the girls apologetically. She looked back at Gajeel, and back to the girls. "Should I touch them?" She said.

"You wont." Evergreen said.

"I dare you!" Cana laughed.

Levy reached her hand out and touched Gajeel's black cat ears sitting on top of his head, and giggled to herself when it twitched.

"Wait. Guys." She looked towards the girls, her face a little scared. "I think these might be real." She said.

"No way." Lucy said as she walked over to Natsu and stroked his ear, causing him to wrap tighter into a ball. "Oh."

When the girls heard Lucy's reaction, they rushed to their lovers, and poked the ears. Jellal didn't stir, Elfman made a noise, Laxus leaned into Cana's hand, Gajeel's ear's twitched again, and Gray rubbed his head with hand. All the girls couldn't contain their laughter any longer, and laughed loudly until they were crying.

"What?" Natsu said as he rubbed his eyes.

"Huh?" Gray said.

"Who's laughing?" Gajeel said annoyed that he was awoken.

"Whats going on here?" Jellal asked Erza.

"Ever?" Elfman said confused.

"What are you laughing at?" Laxus asked Cana.

"You guys," Cana said. "Look in a mirror." She laughed as the boys got up, and went to the bathroom.
