Forget Valentine's Day

The guild was full of heart decorations, couples cuddling, and romance everywhere.. It made Gajeel irritated. Maybe Levy could change that with a confession. Gajeel x Levy

I don't own FairyTail this is purely fan-made.

The guild was full of heart decorations, couples cuddling, and romance everywhere. Of course, it was Valentine's day after all but this was just overboard. Everyone in the guild was celebrating. Even Natsu had made a heart shaped fireball for the occasion.

It made Gajeel sick. Hearing I love you No I love you, passing out candy, and making cards. All of it just sucked. Gajeel sat in a far corner bench ,away from the love fest that was flowing in the guild, chugging down a cold beer. When he finished the beer he slammed the mug down on the wooden table, irritated.

Out of all days, He hated Valentine's day the worst. It just made him mad. All the warmth got on his nerves. Not that anyone ever showed him that warmth, that everyone talked about. He sighed heavily. This was just making him depressed.

His ears perked up hearing light footsteps come up to him. He sniffed the air it smelled like vanilla and wine. He glanced up and saw Mirajane. She was wearing a red dress with a heart shaped fabric covering her cleavage, probably for Valentine's day. She was holding a fresh beer and smiling innocently. Although, around the guild she was known as the MatchMaker. She would find two single people and pair them together even if it was against their will.

Gajeel wasn't really frightened of her or her Matchmaking "powers" but on Valentine's day the last thing he need was some woman trying to match him with every single FairyTail mage in the guild. He let out another labored sigh.

"Just go away. I'm not interested in being MatchMaked." Gajeel said looking at Mirajane with a blank face. She just smiled playfully and set the beer on the table in front of him then sat next to him.

"Non-sense. Everyone wants someone. Even the "almighty" Gajeel." She said in a teasing but quiet tone.

"Pff." He huffed with an irritated look."I don't need a girl on Valentine's day. I'm fine being alone."

She gave an serious look at Gajeel. "Thats not true..No one wants to be alone."

"I never said I wanted to be alone. I just said I'm fine with it." He said shocked that this girl was making him spill his feelings out. He mentally slapped himself for it. She smiled lightly and sat closer to him.

" See… So do you have a crush?" She asked. He thought for a moment and Levy popped suddenly into his mind. Why the hell was he thinking of her. He didn't like that shrimp..did he? His eyes narrowed and his iron studded eyebrows furrowed.

" I…" He was lost for words. Mirajane smiled and got up from her seat.

" Just think about it, K?" She said giving a quick wink and turned around her white hair floating around her waist as she walked away. He closed his eyes and just decided not to think about it. It would only cause more problems if he investigated it besides he really enjoyed her company even just as a friend.

He smiled. He really couldn't believe that insane bookworm forgave him for what he did to her when he was in the phantom lords guild. He got up and shoved his hands in his pockets remembering the day he joined the FairyTail guild. He started walking towards the guilds doors. He was going to go find some iron to eat or that was his plan.

"Levy will you be my Valentine?" A familiar voice said from the other side of the door.

" No be mine!" Another voice shouted as the doors open to reveal a very attractive Levy. She was wearing a short pink dress with white mini hearts all over the fabric. Her blue hair was tied back in a messy bun and her eyes sparkled more so than Gajeel had ever noticed. An old looking book was caressed in her left arm and her usual red bag hung to her shoulder as Jet and Droy followed behind with roses, candies, spouting out their love to her.

Levy looked up at. Gajeel's eyes meet with hers and she smiled wide walking over to him, Gajeel was blushing ever so lightly. Levy's fanboys let out a cry at being ignored.

"Hows your day been going, Gajeel?" She asked giving a cheerful smile.

"Fine." He said crossing his arms still blushing.

"I got you a Valentine's gift!" She said smiling. Gajeel widened his eyes. It would be the first time that he EVER got a Valentine's day gift.

"Really?" He said, secretly very happy.

"Really really." She said handing him the book in her arm.

"Can you hold this for me?" She asked. He nodded taking the book from her small hand. She then began to dig in her bag. After a short while she pulled out a small decorative baggy, which she had some struggle holding.

"Here you go." She said happily handing it to him and taking her book back.

"What is it?" He said opening the pouch and empty some of the contents into his hand. They were iron shaped hearts. He blushed lightly.

"Thank you." He whispered. She smiled up at him.

"No Problem, Gajeel." She said happily and stepped on her tippy toes kissing his jaw lightly. Though she was going for his cheek. His face turned such a dark shade of red and he dropped the iron hearts. Never had a girl kissed him. Even if it was on his lower jaw. Most girls just thought he was a monster.

Gajeel had a new feeling his heart hurt it pounded and he could barely breath. His once strong legs felt like jello.

"Gajeel!" A voice said interrupting his thoughts. Levy was standing in front of him a worried look on her face.

"Are you alright?" She said gently putting a hand on his shoulder. His heart hurt again. He felt dizzy. He couldn't take it. Before he knew it he started running out of the guild. He wasn't sure where he was going but he had to think straight. it just felt so new... so weird. So..good. He stopped running and realized he was in front of his house.

He sighed looking up at his house. It was an normal size building. It had red tiles that slanted down its sides and an a grey painted walls. It wasn't pleasant to the eye but it was his and Lily's home. He slowly walked in starting to feel exhausted. He hadn't eaten any iron all day and between that and his feelings he was tired.

The inside of the house was simple; a rugged up couch, a broken coffee table, and a couple holes in the walls. He headed to the kitchen and opened a cabinet full of Iron bars he kept for when he had the late night munchies. He pulled one out and took a big bite of it. Gajeel then flopped onto the couch . The couch gave a loud creak from his weight and he just closed his eyes eating his iron bar.

Gajeel never had anything fancy in his house or in his life. Everything was plain and simple. No TV, no radio, and no computer. He didn't mind the silence of the house though, it soothed him.
