Author's Note: Ok, this is for Day one: Cooking and Day two: Nursing. Maybe I'll write a small chapter (maybe late here and there) to participate in Gajevy week. I don't know I got a bit on my plate this week, new drawing software, I'm making a video with some friends and I'm working on the special effects, school and love potion number seven. But, what the hell you know what they say, make time. To be honest, I don't know where I was going with this one lol. Either way, I don't own anything Fairy Tail belongs to Hiro Mashima.


Gajevy Week

Day 1 and 2 : Cooking and Nursing

It was an average day at Fairy Tail... well, ok you get the rest. Levy was reading a book in the Guild in her usual spot; enjoying every moment of the adventure this book had in store.

"Oi," a voice whispered in her ear which snapped her out of her trance. Levy looked up to find Gajeel Redfox, Fairy Tail's Iron Dragon Slayer. But; there was something different about him. His sun kissed skin looked a lot paler. Like he hasn't seen sunlight in months. He had dark circles under his eyes which showed he hasn't slept last night. His slick black hair looked dull too.

"Gajeel?" Levy questioned "How are you today?"

"Could be better." The Iron Dragon slayer replied while coughing into his hand. He then sat on the opposite side of the table.

"Good morning Levy." Lily said to Levy with a smile.

"Hi Lily." Levy smiled. Just then, Gajeel let out two coughs.

"You ok Gajeel?"

"Fine." he sniffed before letting out another five coughs.

"Levy," Lily suddenly said "I need to find Erza, can you help me for a find her?"

"Of Course." Levy said slightly confused. She got up and left with Lily, leaving a confused Gajeel.

"What's up?" Levy whispered in Lily's ear.

"He's sick." Lily explained.

"Well, it was obvious but I wasn't going to act-"

"He was complaining he felt nauseous last night. I spent the night on the couch to be safe. When he woke up he threw up like no tomorrow."

"Why did he decide to go to the guild today? He's going to get everyone sick!"

"He has a mission today, and we need the pay unfortunately, he can't afford a sick day." Levy didn't like the sound of this. Just then, she pulled out her check book and began to write a check out for Lily and Gajeel.

"Levy, you don't had to do this-"

"He needs a few days off. Take this check to Magnolia Bank when you get the chance, you don't have to pay me back or anything. Come on, let's get Gajeel home." The two walked over to the Iron Dragon who continued to cough.

"Gajeel," Levy asked the man "Can I feel your forehead?" Gajeel nodded and let the girl's hand touch his forehead; her cool hand made him feel slightly better.

"You're burning up." Levy gasped.

"I'm fine." Gajeel affirmed with a cough. Levy began to notice the sweat that plagued his body.

"You're going home." Levy finally said. She went behind the man and lifted his arm and put it around her shoulders.

"No." He coughed "I- *cough* gotta *cough cough* mission."

"Don't worry. Mira! Call Gajeel's client and let them know he's not going! He's too sick, if they need the job done immediately, send another team!" Mira nodded and began to dial the client's number "Don't worry," she told Gajeel " I gave you and Lily a check to get you by next month. You don't have to repay me or anything." Gajeel looked at Levy and nodded.


The three mages arrived to The Redfox house and opened the door. The house was clean thanks to Lil'y military background but there were a lo of piles of Iron on the floor. The moment they stepped into the house, Gajeel rushed to the bathroom and the sound of him letting out whatever was in his stomach was heard through the hallways of the house. Levy ran into the bathroom, covering her mouth and pulled his hair back. When he finished, he looked around, feeling dizzy and fell onto the ground; passed out.

"Gajeel!" Levy screamed. She felt his forehead and took her hand away quickly "He's burning up. Lily! Get Porlyusica, he's burning up real bad!" Lily nodded and flew out of the house to Porlyusica's.

Levy helped lift him up and began to help him to his bed. His clothes were drenched in his sweat.

"I got to get these clothes into the wash." Levy explained, knowing he was unconscious. She gulped; she never did something like this before. She began to unbuckle the man's pants and removed his boots. She gulped roughly and began to pull down the man's pants. Her whole face turned bright red when she saw his tight black boxers and his muscular legs and his... gulp. She then began to remove his sweat drenched shirt and put it on the floor. Her eyes bulged at the sight of him; it was like he was sculpted by the Gods.

"Love what you see?" said a sickly gruff voice. Levy snapped out of her trance and found a pair of sickly red eyes looking at her.

"I-I-I-" she stuttered "I had to remove them cause you were sweating." Gajeel nodded before coughing again.

"Where's Lily?"

"He went to Porlyusica's, I'm gonna get you're temperature and some cold rags." Gajeel nodded and pulled the blankets close to his body. Levy left the room and came back with a thermometer and a cold rag. Levy put the thermometer in his mouth and waited for the temperature. When she got them, her eyes widened and put the rag on immediately "103 degrees! Gajeel, you're really sick!"

"This is nothing Shrimp. I've had fevers worse than this." She was silent for a moment before she looked at him sternly.

"I'm gonna make you some soup." she got up and waved her arms "Solid Script: Bell!" the word Bell appeared out of thin air and she gave the word to Gajeel "Just ring the bell if you need anything." Levy smiled and then left for the kitchen.


Once in the kitchen, Levy took out Gajeel's apron, pulled her hair back, raided their fridge and began to pull out fresh chicken, onions, peppers, carrots, leek and other assortments of vegetables, water, spices and anything she could find. She began to rummage through the cabinet when a piece of paper fell onto the counter. What's this? she thought when she spotted the paper "Iron Dragon's Soup: The best cure for an illness." She looked at the paper and read it out loud:

"Let's see, one cup of cooked cut chicken, two teaspoons of Cayenne pepper..." she looked around and found the Cayenne pepper "Four cups of water, two cups of...heated iron?" Yeah, this is a Gajeel soup. Levy continued to read the instructions and eventually, the soup was boiling.

"What smells so good?" a voice said. Levy looked and found Gajeel leaning on the wall and looking a little worse than he was before.

"I'm making soup." Levy quickly said "Gajeel, go lie down, you need bed rest."

"I'm fine *Cough cough*" suddenly, his cheeks puffed out and he ran to the bathroom.

Better see if the recipe calls for rice she thought. She looked it over and found out there was a part that called for rice just in case.


When she finished, Levy took out a ladle and began to pour the soup into the bowl. She added some specs of iron and grabbed a spoon. She added a twist tie to the spoon to show no one must use this spoon while Gajeel was still sick. She grabbed everything and went to his bedroom.

"Gajeel!" Levy called out "I got you you're soup." Gajeel looked up at Levy and smirked.

"There's my wife." Levy almost dropped the soup when she heard that. W-w-wife?!

"Gajeel, what're you talking about?"

"Come here babe." Levy uneasily walked over to him and she felt him pull her onto the bed; she was careful not to spill the soup. What was going on here? Gajeel got on top of Levy and Levy began to realize; his fever! It must have gotten to the point where he was delirious! Gajeel began to kiss her neck while she held onto the soup "God you're so beautiful hon."

"G-Gajeel!" Levy squeaked "You're sick! You're fever is making you delirious."

"Hey come on." he smiled "I know my wife when I see her." Ok, she had to change the subject.

"I made you some soup...dear?" Gajeel smiled when he heard her say those words.

"Love my girl's home cooking." he got up and sat with a smile on his face. Levy sat up and dipped the spoon into his soup.

"Open wide Gajeel." Gajeel gave her a smirk and opened his mouth wide. She began to spoon feed him the soup.

"I love the taste. But not as much as your mouth, Gihihihi." Levy blushed at that comment.

"Ok... honey try to finish your meal." Gajeel nodded at his... err "wife's" words and began to eat the soup, spoon full, by spoon full.


Halfway through the bowl, Gajeel suddenly said something.

"Shrimp?" she looked up at him and couldn't believe it, he looked a lot better "The hell happened?" he didn't have any memory of what happened ten minutes ago.

"Gajeel," she squeaked "I-I made you soup and your fever was at a high temperature and-" Gajeel looked at her with sincerity before cutting her off.

"Where did you get the recipe to this soup?"

"I-I found it in your cabinet." there was a moment of silence before Gajeel spoke again.

"Metalicana wrote the recipe," he explained "he use to make it for me all the time when I got sick. Next day, I felt better. It's a recipe I had since I was a kid. He even use to tell me I had a vile look in my eye and I'll never get a girlfriend."

"I-I never knew that."

"Tch. Don't worry it isn't like you knew. It's weird though, it tastes just like the way he use to make it."

"I just followed the recipe."

"Well, good job Shrimp, you can give my selfish foster father a run for his money when it comes to cooking, gihihi." Levy blushed at the comment. Suddenly, they heard the door open.

"I'm back!" Lily's voice called out "Porlyusica recommended two tea spoons of this and plenty of bed rest." He flew into the room and noticed the scene before him "Am I interrupting something?"

"Huh?" Levy blinked "Oh! No, I made soup for him. His dad's recipe, I-I don't know what in t b-bit he's doing a lot better now." Lily raised an eyebrow.

"He does." Lily agreed "Ok then, Gajeel time for your medicine." Lily flew over with the medicine and fed it to him.


A week had passed and Gajeel was feeling a lot better. His once pale sun kissed skin had regained it's color, his hair regained it's sheen, his sickly looking red eyes showed signs of perfect health. Of course, he had no memory of his delirious state, but Levy wasn't going to press it. He was delirious, had no idea what was going on and was ill. Gajeel was sitting in the guild with Lily one day and noticed something out of the ordinary; Levy wasn't in the guild. Gajeel got up from his spot and went over to Mira.

"Oi!" Gajeel called out "Demon Wench, where the hell's Shrimp?" Mira cocked an eyebrow hearing this.

"Oh," she said "Gajeel! You're looking better!"

"Yeah, yeah yeah. Feel it too. Now, can yo please tell me something?"

"Sure?"

"Where's the Shrimp? She's suppose to be here by now!" Mira's face turned from it's usual smile into a small frown.

"she's back at Fairy Hills, she's very sick."

"With what?!" Gajeel asked.

"I don't know." Mira shrugged "Erza said she was throwing up a lot, had a very high fever, coughing and sniffling." Gajeel's eyes widened when he heard her say that; sounded like what he had last week.

"Can you do me a favor and check on her for me? She' can barely get out of bed."

Oh boy. Lily thought, here we go again.
