He was watching her. She could feel his eyes on her back as she maneuvered around the living room of their small apartment, cleaning it up. When she'd finished she stood in the doorway, noticing he'd disappeared from his previous position on the couch.
She gasped in surprise when she'd suddenly felt his strong arms wrap around her petite waist, but soon relaxed against him, smiling as he held her back to his chest.
"Giihii~ Watching you was entertaining~" he murmured, placing a soft kiss against her neck. He loved watching her do anything, but he really loved hearing her soft voice as she read aloud to him. How did he, the badass Iron Dragon Slayer, manage to fall for her, Fairy Tail's biggest bookworm and the leader of the team that his former guild had hurt? He thought about how he'd fallen for her, realizing that he'd fallen for her back on Tenrou Island...during the S-Class Mage Exam.
"Is that so, Gajeel?" the petite bluenette asked, giggling as he kissed her neck. She relaxed into him, sighing softly. She loved it when he held her in his arms, pulling her to him. "Ne...Gajeel...?"
"What is it, shrimp?" He asked, looking down at her. He knew she was gonna question him, but he wasn't sure what it'd be about. So he picked her up, bridal style, and walked over to the couch, laying on it with her on top, feeling completely at ease.
"What...would you say about starting a family...?" Levy asked, laying her head on his chest, beneath his chin. She tensed a bit when she felt him stiffen, most likely in shock due to her question. She just laid there, slowly beginning to relax again as she listened to his heartbeat and breathing even back out after his little panic attack.
"W-why do you ask...?" He muttered, internally cursing himself for stuttering. Did he want to have kids with her...? As he thought about it he smiled, relaxing as he imagined having a son or daughter with the woman he loved more than his life.
"Just wondering..." She murmured, rolling off her back and onto her stomach so she'd be facing him.
"I wouldn't mind having a kid...as long as it was with you." he murmured, kissing her forehead. "But seriously, why'd you..." he trailed off, his eyes widening in realization. "L-levy are...are you...?" He stammered, staring at her.
"Yeah...I am Gajeel." She murmured, smiling at him. "We're having a baby...we're starting a family." She said, kissing him.
"Giihii~ I love you Levy.~" He said, kissing her back, rubbing soothing circles against her back as he smiled.
He wasn't sure if he'd be a good father...but he'd do his best. For his woman and his child.
