Kiss

Cana Alberona has been involved in the many firsts of Laxus Dreyar's life.

First friend. First enemy. First crush. First tears. First love. First heartbreak.

"Remember our first kiss?" he heard the woman ask from his chest where her head laid.

Of course, she was also his first kiss.

His mind reeled when the woman he loved the most mentioned one of the monumental events in their relationship. It was not one of his proudest moments.

"O-of course. What about it?" he asks shakily, wondering if she knew something about what he did that day.

The woman shifts from her position so she could have a better look at her lover. "Nothing in particular. Just that, it was, and still is, the best kiss I ever had."

Laxus swallowed hard.

"There was just that spark when our lips touched." Cana states. "It was something that I didn't feel or experience with any other guy I kissed."

The lightning mage pouted. "Just how many guys did you kiss beside me, huh?"

"Hmm…" the brunette placed a finger on her chin, thinking of all the men that had the honor of kissing her. "Well, there's Macao of course, then Hibiki, Gajeel…"

"Gajeel? Seriously? When did that happen?" Laxus injected.

"I was so hammered that time I really can't remember much but don't worry, it was just a dare."

Laxus remained quiet after that. He didn't really mind who Cana had kissed before. Her lips, along with the rest of her, now belong to him and that is what really matters.

The card mage, misunderstanding her male companion's silence as anger, cuddled closer to him. "Look, I'm sorry ok? Just like I said, they didn't match up to the feeling I got when we first kissed. I mean, our lips barely touched but there was just this spark I couldn't explain. That never happened with anyone except you."

Laxus watched as Cana's eyes shone as she told about their first kiss. Guilt rose to his chest. He just had to let out the truth.

"About that… I need to tell you something."

The nervousness in the blonde's voice caught her attention. Never in her life had she heard him make such a sound.

"That time… I may have caused a spark between us, literally."

A single, elegantly shaped eyebrow rose.

"Well, you mentioned before that you would know if the person you're kissing was the one if you feel a spark when you kissed so I may have used my magic to produce some."

A pair of orange orbs looked into brown ones, gauging her reaction on his revelation.

"Was that a one-time thing or…"

"I only did it that one time I promise, Cana."

The brunette withdrew her hand. She formed a fist and hit her lover's arm as hard as she could.

"Ow!" Laxus yelled. "What was that for?"

"That was for electrocuting me that time." Cana began. "And this is for being honest about it, though you're 10 years late."

Cana pressed her full lips on to his. Even though, the spark she felt during their first kiss may have been induced by Laxus' powers. She knew that the spark she felt the other times their lips met was real.
