All characters are humans. There's no magic.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! The alarm rang loudly waking levy from whatever slumber she was in. This was wrong, of course, given the fact that today was her first day as a sophomore. Yes, this four-foot eleven female was now a sophomore in the famous Fairy Tail Academy. She dreaded this day, not due to the school, but due to her worst enemy. Gajeel Redfox, now a junior.

He had been a pain on her side since he transferred from Phantom Academy with her female best friend Juvia, last school term. The first day since he came, he bullied her and her best friends, Droy and Jet. Juvia claimed it was due to being an outcast, but since he started to hang out with her best friend's boyfriend, Natsu, he's changed a bit.

He has a crush on you. Lucy would say, but Levy refused to believe it. Yeah, he was different compared to last year, but he didn't have to call her a shrimp!

As Levy finished getting ready, she slowly took her time to walk to school. Unfortunately, she was at walking distance to her school. She finally made it to school.

"Levy!" Droy and Jet called out to her.

Levy smiled at the boys. They walked to the building together. They gained their schedules and walked to their lockers. Levy spoke about a new book she read last night when she collided with a hard body.

She fell on her bottom and winced at the impact. When she looked up, she saw the person she wanted to avoid the most.

"Shrimp, missed me?" The tall male with long black hair, many piercings and red eyes said as he bent down to Levy's level.

"You hurt Levy you punk!" Jet said.

"Yeah!" Droy agreed.

Gajeel glared at the two males, which shut them up quickly. Levy rolled her eyes and proceeded to get up. She dusted off the dirt from her skirt and walked past the tall male to her locker. Gajeel, amused by her actions, followed her to the locker.

"You didn't answer my question, gihi," he laughed.

Levy slammed her locker shut and turned her attention to Gajeel.

"I had a wonderful summer without you, Gajeel. How about you?"

Gajeel flicked the wax from his nail. "I just broke up with some chick. She was a summer fling or a sex-buddy."

That hurt levy more than it should have, but she played it off by being disgusted by his choice of words. Levy was glad she was saved by the bell ringing.

"I have to go now, Gajeel." she said in a chipper mood.

"See you later shrimp, and by the way, nice panties," he whispered the last part.

Frustrated, she entered her first class to be greeted by her best friend Lucy.

"So you and Natsu are in separate classes this year?" Levy said as she sat next to Lucy.

"Yes, he's with Gray and Juvia."

Levy shuddered. Juvia loved Gray from the first day she came to the school. Gray and Natsu were rivals, so all that drama in one class was too much. Poor sensei, whoever it will be.

"Lucy!" a voice called out. Both females turned to see Loke, the most famous playboy in the academy. All the girls loved him, but he had his eyes on Lucy.

"Hi Loke." Lucy kindly greeted. Loke looked around the room before giving Lucy a pink rose.

"Now, that the boyfriend isn't here, how about we skip class and have some fun?"

Lucy laughed, but Levy knew her best friend wanted to punch his lights out.

"I don't think Natsu will like that very much." Lucy said, emphasizing her boyfriend's name.

Loke rolled his eyes.

"Loke, you don't belong here!" Erza Scarlet said, the school's president. She was the most fiery and beautiful female in the campus. She was a senior, so it will be her last year.

Loke, scared of the most powerful female in Fairy Tail, quickly kissed Lucy's cheek and ran to his class.

Levy smiled at Lucy. "Well if you and Natsu don't work out, there's always Loke."

Lucy rolled her eyes. "No way, the day I break up with Natsu is the day he cheats."

Levy ignored her best friend and waited when their sensei, Happy entered the room. He was an average heighted male with light blue hair. Levy, consciously, touched her own blue hair. She didn't think that hair color was common.

After the first few periods, it was finally lunchtime. Levy joined her group of friends in the cafeteria. Lucy ran to her boyfriend, who was fighting with Gray, who was missing a shirt. Levy flinched when Erza came over to the two males and pounded their heads against each other. The vice president, Mirajane, another of the most beautiful females in this school, laughed at Erza's actions.

"What were they fighting about now?" Levy asked Lucy.

"Who's the best basketball player, like always."

"What was that for, Erza? You wanna fight?" Natsu yelled out.

Lucy went over to Natsu to prevent him from fighting and getting suspended on the first day of school. Levy went over to get her lunch.

"So you're stalking me now, shrimp?" Gajeel said as he turned around to see levy standing behind for the line.

Levy face palmed. Why? She was having such a good day today.

"I know you love me, but come on Levy."

Levy mentally paused.

"Did you just call me Levy?" she asked.

She noticed that the tips of his ears were turning a bit red.

"W-well that's your name, ain't it?"

Levy giggled. For the first time since he came to this school, levy smiled at Gajeel.

Unknowing to her, Gajeel wanted to kiss her then and there.

"Yes it is, and no I wasn't stalking you. It was just a coincidence is all."

"Or fate," he teased as he walked to the lunch lady to get his food.

Levy blushed, but ignored her heart beating fast as she proceeded to obtain her food as well. She went over to her group of friends and joined them for lunch.

"Hey, Levy did you hear? Erza has a date tonight." Lucy announced.

Levy stared at the president with a shocked face. Erza was flustered with embarrassment.

"R-really? Lucky, I never been on one before."

"Why don't you ask Gajeel to take you on one?" Lucy blushed.

Turning red, Levy yelled out, "NEVER!" gaining the attention of everyone in the cafeteria, especially a tall, dark and handsome male.

"NEVER!" Gajeel heard Levy yell out as he ate his sloppy Joe. Startled, some of it spilled onto his white shirt. Natsu laughed, but Gajeel punched him in the mouth.

"I'm going to fuck you up, Gajeel!" Natsu yelled out as Gajeel left the table to wash off the Joe from his shirt.

Damn shrimp, why she had to yell for?

There were many reasons, and he hoped he wasn't one of them. Only Juvia knew this, but Gajeel fell for the tiny shrimp since the first day they transferred. He saw a beautiful blue haired female holding a few textbooks with pride, strutting down the hallways. He thought she was awe-inspiring. He knew she was freshman. She was a super cute freshman. Gajeel didn't believe in love at first sight, until he saw levy. But he didn't know how to approach her, so he went the elementary school way, teasing and bullying the girl you like.

It didn't work at first since Levy became a bit scared of him, but after getting some pointers from salamander, that's what he calls Natsu, he realized bullying on the teasing scale would help. Now, now, Gajeel was tired of the teasing and the bullying. He wanted an actual relationship, even if it was friendship.

Gajeel went to the water fountain outside of the cafeteria. He removed his shirt and began to wash it. The stain didn't want to come out!

"Oh, Gajeel, how are you?" the gym sensei, Sagittarius, asked. He had an obsession with archery and horses.

gajeel scowled. "I got sloppy joe all over my shirt." he answered his teacher.

"Oh, I'm sure. Ms. Aries has something that could remove that."

"Yeah, thanks. I'll be going now." Gajeel said.

He took his advice and went to the nurse's office. Before he entered the room, he saw Levy speaking with one of the teacher's assistants, Freed. His body started getting hot as Levy laughed at one of his jokes and the fact that she smiled so kindly at him. This angered Gajeel.

Waiting for her to be finished with him, Gajeel crept behind her and stole her book.

"Hey! Ugh, Gajeel give it back," she yelled out.

He shook his head, smirking. That's what you get for flirting with someone else.

With a desperate tone, Levy said, "Please, I can't afford for that book to get damaged, I'll do anything!"

Anything? Gajeel's eyebrows rose with shock and then with interest.

"Anything?"

Levy cowered a bit. "N-not anything, b-but I-I…"

"Go out with me, shrimp." Gajeel smiled. Fate was indeed on his side.

Review? Suggestions?
