A/N: Okay! First chapter of my first Fairytail Fic! I've wanted to write Gajevy/GaLe fan fic for a while so I scribbled this up at school today! No guarantees on updating it often and I will inevitably abandon this in a while. REVIEWS, FOLLOWS AND FAVORITES WILL DEFINITELY ENCOURAGE ME THOUGH! Oh, and though it may be somewhat out of character, I'm going to try to keep Gajeel's language relatively PG.

Levy McGarden bent over the book in front of her, her eyes flicking back and forth as she scanned the page. Her pen moved wildly across the paper as she took notes. The rest of team Shadowgear stood behind her, cheering her on quietly so as not to disrupt her.
With a small sound of triumph, she rearranged some words in the written barrier spell that surrounded her, causing the spell to fall, broken by the young solid script mage. Jet and Droy jumped up and down behind her, congratulating the azure haired girl rather obnoxiously. Levy turned to a man with long green hair who had been watching her work.
"How 'bout that!" She boasted, "A new record, only took me…" she glanced at her watch, "less than two minutes for me to take down your barrier runes, Freed." Freed scoffed, slightly embarrassed that the petite, young girl had defeated his spell.
"It was an easy one," he claimed, "Only would have taken me a minute. That is, if it weren't mine."
"Whatever you say" Levy replied sarcastically, walking away from the annoyed mage. She tugged at her sloppy ponytail, pulling out and letting her spiky blue locks bounce free. She had always thought of her hair as her best physical trait. She hadn't found a hairstyle it didn't look good in yet!
"I'm gonna get a drink!" She called to Jet and Droy who were, as usual, bickering over a seemingly pointless subject, "Don't kill each other!" She added a hint of laughter in her voice. Levy sat down at Fairytail's bar, asking Mira for a tall Strawberry Milkshake with extra whipped cream.
"Nicely done!" The white haired young bar maid congratulated her, "Freed could use his ego knocked down a peg or two!" Levy laughed, "It was definitely a workout, though," she admitted, "he is nearly as good as he claims to be." She wiped her brow with her sleeve. Mira smiled and walked away, going to make Levy her requested milkshake.

Gajeel Redfox watched the blue haired mage disassemble the spell with admiration. The shrimp sized girl certainly knew her stuff, he thought gruffly. The iron dragon shook himself out of a trance. He had always had a thing for Levy, though she deserved better than him. She deserved someone who hadn't beaten her up and crucified her to a tree.
Gajeel decided he need a strong drink to keep the solid script mage out of his mind. He sat down next to Cana, the guild's drinking expert, at the bar. Cana, for once, had just a large glass in her hand, rather than an entire barrel of alcohol.
"What? No more kegs?" Gajeel asked the card mage, "Did Master finally cut you off?"
"Nah," Cana scoffed, "This stuff is just even more hardcore than the liquor even I drink. Even Bacchus couldn't chug a barrel of this."
Gajeel beckoned Mira over, "I'll have a shot of what she's having," he said gruffly, pointing at Cana with his thumb.
"Long day, huh?" Cana inquired.
"Nah, just a lot on my mind, I don't particularly enjoy thinking," He downed his drink in two gulps, immediately regretting it as it stung his throat and nearly made him gag. "How the heck do you drink this crap?"

A/N: Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it! I don't exactly write long chapters, as you'll learn quickly! Favorite, follow and review please!
