A/N: I love overprotective Lucy.


Chomp.

She twitched.

Seeing this, he purposely started eating louder.

She eyed him, hard. "Gajeel"

No responce. She went ignored.

"Have you ever heard of table manners?" She pestered on. "Try getting some."

He scoffed. "Ever heard of minding your own business? You ain't got any."

"This is Fairy Tail" She noted, adding extra emphasis on the words "Fairy Tail" while mentally facepalming the table.

He grunted in knowingness.

"-And" Lucy pressed on, "We don't know the meaning of this so called "minding our own business." You should know at least that by now. For no secrets, conspiracies, relationships and so on can be secluded from us Fairy Tail mages. We gossip, we know everyone's business, and most of all, we-

"-I get it." He snapped, "You can't hide anything from anyone. Especially that damned devil they call Mirajane."

She shivered. "She's the worst meddler I've ever seen."

He shrugged. "Now that you've finished infesting me with your crap, scoot on along. I'm eating."

Lucy sighed. "You're extremely socially awkward."

Gajeel slammed a fist onto the table, unaware of the various looks he recieved. "Cut the crap and fuck off already, Bunny Girl."

"I'm not finished yet, Gajeel." She continued to push him further, confused as of where this new-found confidence had come from. "In fact, I've not even started. Oh boy I've not even started yet!"

He blinked. Not at all sure if she was serious.

Putting on a very deadly tone, Lucy etched closer toward the rough man. "I'm warning you, Gajeel Redfox. Take good care of Levy. Extra good care of Levy. Or else you'll have me to deal with."

Hesistant to say anything, Gajeel struggled to hold in a brewing laughter at her pathetic attempt in threatening him, as the only words he could possibly mumble out were that of "hmph"

"Hmph! HMPH? Is that all you have to mutter when I'm practically letting Levy-chan date the likes of you! She's my best friend! And God be damned, if you treat her badly..."

"D-Date?"

"I'm watching you Gajeel. One wrong move and I'll Lucy kick that overly pierced face of yours into next year!"

He gulped. She proudly skipped away.


"I'm back Gajeel, the mission was successful! Those bandits were nothing Team Shadow Gear couldn't handle!"

No answer.

"Gajeel? What are you staring at?"

Still no response.

"Ga-je-el" Levy sang, before gently squeezing his arm.

He abruptly snapped out of his trance, turning himself to look at her. "Shrimp?"

She took a seat beside him. "You're not your usual self today. Something happened?"

"Bunny Girl is fucking scary."

Levy smiled sweetly. "So she's been meddling, huh?"

He nodded. "She's on par with Mirajane. That's the last time I ever mess with her."

From afar, Lucy's eyes wickedly sparkled.
