This is my very 1st fanfiction, so be nice to me please! This is a story that I had an idea for while listening to "Demons" by Imagine Dragons. I OWN NOTHING!
It was a warm, sunny day in Magnolia City. Levy McGarden was on her way to the guild. She was skipping along, with a new book in her hands, and humming the song, "On Top of the World". Her orange dress floating up a little with each step, and her sky-blue hair bouncing up and down on top of her head. Not paying a whole lot of attention to the world around her, being caught up in humming her song, and thinking about her brand new book, she didn't see the dark form until she crashed into it, landing on her butt, dazed and startled.
"Hey! Watch it, Shrimp!" A gruff voice said, "You should pay more attention to where you're going."
Levy looked up to see the tall, dark figure, and exclaimed, "Well, you should've moved out of the way, Gajeel!" (AN: I've decided to make Levy a little bit sassy. For funsies)
Brown eyes stared up to meet red, as Gajeel bent down and helped her up onto her feet. Dusting herself off indignantly, she looked up at the iron dragonslayer, and with a huff, she thanked him for helping her up. She started to keep walking, before she heard him say, "Hey, Shorty. Mind if I walk with you?" She shrugged, trying to ignore the blush that was surely covering her face. The dragonslayer took that as a yes, and fell into step next to her. The two of them walked for a bit, before Levy spoke up,
"Hey Gajeel, do you plan on going to the spring harvest festival in a few days?" Ley asked, hoping the answer would be yes; for, after the festival itself, there was a huge dance under the rainbow cherry blossom trees. And she had fallen for Gajeel, but wasn't sure if the large, and rough dragonslayer felt the same.
Gajeel just shrugged "I dunno. If Lily wants to go, then maybe. Why do you ask?" He saw the embarrassment on her face before she quickly looked away. "Oh no reason. I was just curious." He knew she wasn't saying something, but decided not to push it.
Not long after, they arrived at the guild and went their separate ways, Gajeel to the back corner, where Pantherlily was waiting, and Levy to talk to Lucy about her new book. As Gajeel sat down, Lily looked at him with a smirk.
"So, I see you walked Levy to the guild. Did you too have fun?" The exceed said, winking at Gajeel, who was not amused. "Shaddup, cat," the dragonslayer growled, "she just bumped into me, and we just walked her cuz we both going the same direction."
"Mmhm," the exceed said, taking a drink of his juice, "So did you ask her to the spring festival yet?" He asked with a grin, "It would be a great chance for you to tell her how you feel."
"No, I didn't. I'm not the dancing type." The charcoal-haired man said, "Besides, I doubt Shorty would go with me anyway. She'll probably take her damn accessories instead. His tone turned bitter, and he glared at the two 'accessories' who were currently hovering around Levy. "Fucking lap dogs." He grumbled, taking a couple of gears out of his pocket, and biting into one. "Besides," he said, his mouth full of iron, "I'm not good enough for her."
"Why don't you let her decide that for herself?" Pantherlily asked.
"Hmph," was the man's only reply, as he turned to look at the little bookworm that he cared for so much.
