Levy
Levy opened her eyes, sleep was not coming easily tonight . It was a bit past midnight and the neighbor in the apartment above hers was playing music loudly.
Sitting up, she pulled her blankets off of her. She needed to do something about this. Putting on a pair of slippers she left the apartment and went to the flight of stairs down the hall. Finding the source of the music was not too hard, there were not many apartments in the building and all she had to do was follow the sound.
It was not until she actually got to the apartment that she realized she had never even talked to the tenant before, hell, she did not even know if they were male or female. Nonetheless she knocked on the door.
Levy did not know what she was expecting, but this certainly was not it. The person standing before her was a man over a foot taller than her, with long, spiky, black hair. What really surprised her though were his piercings. Instead of eyebrows, he had three metal studs over each eye, two studs on each side of his nose, two more on his chin, and another three on each ear.
"U-um hi." Levy stuttered out, compared to her short stature, he was slightly intimidating. "My name's Levy."
He raised an eyebrow, or what was supposed to be an eyebrow, "Hi. Is there a reason you're visiting me this late at night, because I'm pretty sure we haven't met, and even if we have, this would still be a bit weird."
"Oh, um, right, sorry. Well I live in the apartment below yours and I'm trying to sleep but you're playing that music really loudly and I was just wondering if you could turn it down," she held her thumb and index finger a centimeter apart. "just a teensy bit."
He stared at her for what felt like hours before finally answering. "Uh, yeah, sure."
Levy felt relief wash over her, she smiled. "Thanks."
She noticed a small smile on Gajeel's face as well as he mumbled a quick, "You're welcome." before closing the door.
With the smile still on her face, Levy began to walk back to her apartment as she thought, 'He was nicer than I thought, hopefully I'll be able to talk to him again.
Gajeel
Gajeel had gotten home late, as usual, and was listening to some music to wind down, when he heard a loud knock on the door. Confused, he went to answer it. Who would be knocking on his door this late at night.
He opened the door to find a short girl. "U-um hi. My name's Levy."
Not knowing how to respond, he said, "Hi. Is there a reason you're visiting me this late at night, because I'm pretty sure we haven't met, and even if we have, this would still be a bit weird." The moment he finished talking he internally face palmed, way to go Gajeel, now you look like a huge asshole.
"Oh, um, right, sorry. Well I live in the apartment below yours and I'm trying to sleep but you're playing that music really loudly and I was just wondering if you could turn it down," she held her thumb and index finger a centimeter apart. "just a teensy bit."
Gajeel looked her over, in terms of height she barely reached his shoulders, she had wild, short, blue hair, and big brown eyes. He had to admit, she was pretty cute.
Realizing that he was staring he quickly responded, "Uh, yeah, sure."
He hoped she did not notice his blush as she smiled and said "Thanks."
Doing his best to return the smile, he mumbled "You're welcome." and closed the door.
