Hello!

Approve on the run again, and this time it's in our own modern world.
I've been thinking about writing this story for a looong time now, so here we have it. The story mostly circles around our favorite couple GaLe, but of course you'll also get some goodies form the others. It's rated as a T now, but it will be an M later, just so you guys know.

Btw
The song in this text is "Jurney – Don't stop believing"
fit in just perfectly in this chapter, just keep on reading and you'll know why ^^

Love/

Chapter 1
- way out of the comfort zone

"Fairy tail?" Levy mumbled to herself, looking at the sign on top of the rundown building.
Not exactly the most common name for a garage. But she was not here to judge the Chairmans taste in names; she was here to get this garage back on its feet.

Levy sighed, crossing her arms over her chest as she tried to remember why again she had accepted this project? Obviously she had been too busy fancying the chairman's grandson, Laxus, her current boss, than actually listen to what the old man was telling her. Before she knew it, she had jumped up and agreed to bring the old man's first company out of the red zone. Damn those hormones! No wait, damn that stomached of hers! Whenever she's hungry, everything and everyone looks delicious to her and that time, Laxus was looking pretty tasty! But before she could mentally beat herself for her stupidity, levy got an idea. What if she would actually success? She would be promoted and maybe Laxus would acknowledge her. That would surely make the other office ladies green of envy and regretting their words about her, that "Levy is such a pretty and hard working girl! But way to dense to ever get a man. She'll surely end up like a cat woman! Hahaha!" and then they would go all love-crazy when Laxus arrived and scolded them for gossiping during work. If Levy could snatch that man right in front of them, she would be able to go to sleep every night after that with a smile on her lips.

"Aright, that's settled!"Levy smirked and pointed her index finger at the building "I'll make you shine ones more. In return, you will fix my promotion and a date with my boss!"

Satisfied with that, Levy made her way to the entering, knocking twice on the door. She could hear music inside the building, but none was opening the door for her. She knocked once more, but when that didn't helped, she invited herself in. The strong smell of oil and dirt hit her nose the moment she entered. The light inside was weak and it took a couple of seconds before her eyes got used to it. She saw that she was standing in a big room that was pretty packed. Four cars were placed in line and tools and dirt were scattered everywhere. Old playboy calendars, photos and trophies hanged on the walls and she could see the source of the music, a radio, through the window in to the coffee room. A young man with pink hair, probably in his early twenties, just as her, was making his way out of that room and in to the garage. His short hair was messy and so was his clothes, but he had a sweet and kind face. He was singing along to the song and moving his hands in the air as if he was playing on a real guitar.

"..Just a small-town girl.. Living in a loooonely world.."

A gruffly sound was heard from one of the cars "Oye Natsu! Pipe down would ya? And please do something about your sad taste in music.."
The pink guy in question just smiled and then he took off, making a huge jump and landed on the hood of the car, putting his head through the car window (no glass there by that time) and continued to sing out loud
"Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit!"

Levy heard a bang and then she saw a sea of black hair moving in the front seat and then a hand taking the young man on his collar and bringing him further in to the car.
"What the fuck flamebrain!? You seriously want me to blow up the car?"

Levy, who was still standing by the door, just shook her head
"Oh boy… What have I got myself in to.."

In the mean time, the pink young man just laughed and somehow got out of the other mans grip and out of the car
"Relax Redfox, it's just a song. Did you accidentally got some metal chips in your coffee again? Not my fault this time, blame strippe…"

The guy trailed off when he finally caught the sign of levy. "Ohh! Hello there beautiful! Can I help you with something? The car maybe broken?" then he got a sheepish look on his face "Or maybe.. Are you by any chance this grumpy mans woman?" pointing his finger at the car that he just got out from. Another bang was heard from the car and the other guy called Redfox finally revealed himself. He was a tall, build man with long, wild black hair. Somehow he had tamed it enough to be tied in a low ponytail his back.

He looked like he was about to explode and slaped the pink one over his head.
"What the hell Natsu!? Stop messing with my work and don't mess with the costumers, because I'll seriously beat the crap out of you and sell you to the circus next time!"
Natsu snorted "Like Lily would ever let you do that!"
"I would what?" A dark voice suddenly answer behind Levy.

She turned around and saw a man in his late thirties leaning against the wall behind her. He was also a tall, build man but with short, dark hair with slightly hint of gray in it. His skin was light brown and he had a huge scar right by his left eye. She had been too busy observing the two men in front of her that she hadn't heard the man entering the building.

"I assumed you must be Levy McGarden?"
"You assumed right"
The man smiled
"Lily Panther, I'm the one in charge of the cars. Those two are Natsu and Gajeel. Makarov called me yesterday and said he was sending someone from the main office to help us?"

Levy smiled, feeling that her confident started to return
"Yes that's right, I'm here to get this business running smoothly again"

She turned around and gave the two other men a grin, now way she would let this two overgrown boys destroy her plan.

"Any problem with that…. Boys?"

Natsu was smiling happily at her, but Gajeel was not looking so found of the idea.

"What could possibly a short little office rat like you know about a business like this one?"

Levy moved closer to the man and tilted her had up a bit and gave him a challenging look.

"You'll just have to wait and see…Gajeel?"

Gajeel snorted, crossing his arms over his chest
"bring it"

"Quit it Gajeel" Lily gave the man a warning look before he turned to levy
"By the way Levy, the chairman said that you normally live pretty far away from here. Do you need a place to stay?"
"Oh, no need Lily, I've already managed to get an apartment, I'll be moving in later today"
Levy took the paper with the address and showed it to Lily, the man looked at the paper, then he tilted his head up and gave Gajeel a smirk
"Seems you two are about to be neighbors"

"….."

".. wait what?"

What do you think? Do you hate it or love it?
Should I continue with the story or was this a stupid idea? I wrote it fairly quickly so I promise that if you like it, then the next one will be longer and much better. The idea with this story is that it's taking place in a modern world and our heroes are a bit older and a tiny bit more matured than what we're use to. But still lots of fun in it!
