As I walked down the road passed the guild I thought to my self about Cana

"Damn witch and her drinking games" I muttered slightly more drunk then I should have been.

I looked up to the guild it was past 2 am but there was a faint glow in the window I moved my way over to the door. No one should be in there at this time, I opened the door as quietly as a could I looked towards the end of the bar and in the corner on the red couch was levy her blue hair tucked behind her ears, her speed reading glasses perched up on her nose, her feet tucked under her a very large book placed on her lap..

I quietly watch her as I move into the dark guild coming from the side she is too engrossed in her book to even see me. I watch her my breath hitches as memories flood back to me even tho it had been technically 9 years since that day me and levy first met it still bothered me.

I stand there for what seems like forever just drinking in the site of her petite body but I knew it would have only been a minute she still hasn't noticed me. I sit down next to her I hear her yip in surprise.

"why did you forgive me" I stated not looking at her I couldn't bring my self to face her with all the shame I felt inside me. It seems like lately we seem to do this in the guild since Tenrou island, we sit in the guild surrounded by other people levy and i just sitting here me like a statue listening sometimes she will go on about her book not that I really want to here it but I know she wants to talk about it so I let her, I watch the others and roll my eyes at Jet and Droy

I watch her out of the corner of my eye she puts her book on the table and takes off her glasses and pausing like she is thinking about how to answer me.

"why would you need forgiving you aren't Gajeel of phantom lord. You are Gajeel of Fairy tail, he hasn't hurt me" she stated looking straight at me

I sighed and rested my head on her shoulder

"But I still did those things" I closed my eyes drinking in her scent, if there was only one thing I had to smell for the rest of my life it would be the smell of levy and ink, before I could help it the memory of me hurting and hanging levy, Jet and Droy to the tree came to my mind.

"I don't deserve your forgiveness." I reply as I straighten up and cross my arms over my chest I shake my head as I hear their screams them begging for mercy and I hold there lives in my hands.

"That Gajeel was different to this one, this one would never hurt me or Fairy tail. you are not the same man and don't need my forgiveness" she leaned back and patted her lap I rested my head in her lap and she started to run her hands threw my hair, I could feel my body shake as I could smell the salt from the tears running down my cheek.

"I forgive you' she mumbled in my ear her voice like liquid how could she ever forgive me or anyone of Fairy tail yet here I am all this time later with people I care about. I would die for these people I would kill for these people these people are my family

I could feel her hand stroke my hair as I melted into her the smell driving me crazy if I had to be anywhere for the rest of my life it would be right here in the guild with levy.

I love you levy…. I think to my self but I cant say it. We stay like this for hours me drinking in her warmth and scent.
