"Bickslow I swear to god if you open the door right now, I'm going to kill you."
Laxus let out a breath of relief as a breeze hit his face. He was thankful they were off the train, as his stomach could finally rest. His gaze drifted to Galatea, who was currently smacking Bickslow repeatedly on the head for something he said, though what was said was unclear to Laxus.
"Should we find a hotel now?" Freed asked, "Before they day gets too late?"
"Yeah." Galatea said, "I know a good one, follow me."
The group followed Galatea through the streets of Lucern, admiring the quaint architecture. All of the buildings were a faded grey colour, while the streets were a polished tan colour. The streets were lined with a variety of small storefronts, with teetering apartments above them, who's balconies peered over the street. Clothes were drying out on every open balcony, and there were people conversing from across the balconies.
"This is a very pleasant town." Freed commented. "I can see why its so popular."
Galatea nodded, looking around the place. The town was truly beautiful, but ever since what happened, the town didn't look the same to her. It didn't help that she only came to visit the town on Vivi's anniversary. But, she would do her best to make the trip for the others enjoyable.
As they turned the corner, they were greeted by a street of pastel-coloured buildings. Galatea stopped for second, before directing them to a peach-coloured inn.
"This place is good, and they have vacancies so we're in luck." Galatea said. "Hopefully its not a weird combination."
"Do you wanna go in so we don't crowd the lobby?" Evergreen asked, "The rest of us can look around in the mean time."
"Sure. Library Avenue is the street over if you guys wanna go look there. Theres plenty of good cafès as well." Galatea said, taking everyone's bags and putting them in her realm.
As suspected, about 30 minutes later after she had gotten their rooms taken care of, she wandered onto Library Avenue, where she found everyone but Freed relaxing on the patio of a cafe, cold drinks in hand. She walked over to the group, who were in the midst on conversing on whether or not Evergreen was ever going to publicly admit that she and Elfman were dating.
"Hey guys. Which store did Freed go into?" Galatea asked.
"Oh, hey Tea. Did you get a hotel?" Evergreen said.
"Yeah." Galatea said, "So where did Freed go?"
"He's in the store right over there." Laxus said, pointing the bookstore across the street. "Are you going to go look at some books."
"Yeah, if that's okay with you guys." Galatea said, "Oh, here are the room keys. We have two singles and a double."
"I want a room to myself!" Evergreen said quickly.
"Bickslow, are you good with sharing a room with Freed?" Galatea asked.
"Yeah, but we're snagging the double. I am not sharing a bed with that nerd."
"You're only saying that because you're a nerd yourself."
Galatea rolled her eyes, slamming the keys on the table in front of their respective inhabitants, before turning on her heel and entering the book store across the street. Quietly, she entered the bookstore, waving to the employee as she entered. She quickly searched through the aisles, searching for Freed. When she couldn't find him, she went up to the second floor where she found her friend pouring over an ancient-looking book.
"There you are." she whispered.
"Ah, Tea. Did you come to look at books?" Freed said, looking up from the book.
"Yeah, I want to see what I can add to my collection." Galatea said. "I just wanted to make sure you were still in here."
"I'm going to continue perusing books if that's okay with you, unless you have more plans." Freed said.
"No, I'm going to look around to. When you're done the others at the the cafe across the street. Also, you're sharing a double room with Bickslow." Galatea explained.
Freed simply nodded before turning back to his book, and Galatea disappeared into a different section. Eventually, the two book lovers left the store, both with a bag in their hands, though Galatea had a sizeable amount compared to Freed. Their friends were still sitting at the cafè, though the sky had significantly darkened.
"How many more books do you need?" Evergreen asked, seeing the amount of books they had.
Galatea shrugged, "You can never have enough. Besides, I still have room for books."
"But you don't own a bookshelf." Bickslow said, "Where do you keep all of your books?"
"My study. Where else would I keep them?" Galatea said.
"What does your study even look like? You've never let us see it before." Bickslow said.
"It's just a study."
"Then can we see it?"
"No. I don't like people going into my study." Galatea said, "Do you guys mind stopping at the hotel so we can drop this stuff off before we go and find somewhere to eat dinner?"
