Lost

"What's the matter, Sparky? You lost?" Lucy asked as she turned around to face the lighting mage currently following her home from the guild's latest party. Not that she was complaining. She had spent half the night trying to come up with a plan to get the blond Adonis into bed with her before giving up all her ideas as silly. Now he was following her home and she thought there might be some hope after all.

"Just making sure you get home without being kidnapped again, Blondie" came the snarky the reply. Though it was said as a joke, Laxus realized he actually meant it. He couldn't seem to help worrying about the blonde mage whenever she was out of his site. Her track record with ending up the center of evil plots definitely did not help the situation any.

He had always been drawn to her bright smile and friendly personality and watching her at the party tonight he had an epiphany. He loved her. More than that, as he brushed against her at the bar his dragon roared to life in his head and declared her his mate.

So now he was following her home and trying to figure out how to tell her. Or if he even should. He had not idea how she really saw him and for all he knew she could run away screaming when he told her. He decided that maybe the direct approach wasn't the best option and he should feel her out a little first. See how she responded to some friendly overtures or a little flirty.

"You might as well come up for a drink then, and make sure no boogey men are lurking in the closet then" Lucy declared as they reached her building, giving him a saucy grin and a wink. Okay so it wasn't the most clever thing to say, but she just wasn't brave enough to ask him directly for what she wanted.

Laxus was a bit startled by her sudden invitation but followed her inside anyway thinking he could begin to put his plan into motion. He had no idea what his fellow blonde was thinking and didn't expect for Lucy to lunge at him in a passionate kiss as soon as the door was closed. Her movement was so sudden she nearly knocked him over but it didn't take long for him to regain his balance. His dragon began purring at the contact and he decided to go with it. Isn't there a saying that It was best not to look a gift horse in the mouth?

That was his last coherent thought as her mouth opened and their tongues began to battle for dominance. As they kissed her legs came up to wrap around his waist and he began to slowly make his way toward her bed. They were both so lost in the haze of lust that they barely registered removing each other's clothing on the way. When they reach the bed Laxus was stopping out of his jeans and both were in nothing more than their underwear. That too was quickly discarded as Lucy was placed down on the bed.

The need had built too quickly and both were too impatient so Laxus was quick to thrust into her. It didn't take long until they were both calling out the others name in bliss. After they had caught their breath from the first mind blowing orgasm they took their time talking, laughing, exploring each other and writhing together into the early hours of the morning.

Laxus was so caught up in their activities that he didn't realize he drew blood as he nipped at her skin. And as they both drifted off into an exhausted sleep neither of them noticed the dragon beginning to form around the bite mark.
