Flashback
"get off the stage screws for brains!" Natsu shouted over Gajeel's loud singing
"shut up fire breath!"
"Are you picking a fight with me?"
Before Natsu could move Erza shot them a glare and Natsu sat there fearing for his life and hiding behind Happy
"Tch. Whatever, c'mon Lily let's go"
And without another word Lily and Gajeel left the guild without anyone noticing them leave except for Juvia and Levy of course
They walked out of the guild and made their way to their home with Gajeel angry and wanting to vent on something, on someONE was more like it. As if reading his mind Lily spoke
"If you want to take your anger out on someone then how about we spar?"
Gajeel grinned
"Thanks cat, but I won't be going easy on you this time"
"Try me"
With that they fought, in the forest close to their house, for what they thought was only a few minutes had ended up as being a few hours and by the time they had called it a draw and headed home, the sun had already gone down.
Flashback End
When they were in front of their home, Lily went back into battle mode
"Gajeel-"
"Yeah, there's someone in our house" Gajeel said cutting him off
They both nodded and Pantherlily opened the door as quietly as possible and Gajeel was in a fighting stance ready for an attack, but it turned out to be...
Gajeel P.O.V.
"Levy?" We both said surprised
The bookworm was sleeping sprawled out on my floor.
"Gajeel, you know what Levy smells like so why did you let me believe she was an intruder?" He said as he transformed back into a small cat
Lily had a good point, but...
"I smelled an intruder! I didn't smell her scent, heck, I can't even smell it now!" I said angrily
'why would she come here? How did she even know where I lived? Wait-'
"Salamander! He probably tracked my scent to my house! " I yelled furiously
"The next time I see him I'm gonna-"
I was cut off by Lily face palming
"What?!"
"You do realize you're yelling in front of a sleeping Levy right?"
I looked down remembering the sleeping shrimp at my feet, who started to stir
"Crap!"
I remember the last time I woke her up, it was 2 in the morning and her eyes looked devoid of emotion just staring blankly at me until she realized I woke her up, that's when all hell broke loose. I still remember that scary face she made...
Narrator P.O.V.
Gajeel's sweat dropped. He picked up Levy, careful not to wake her and for a split second he thought 'beautiful' then proceeded to tuck her into his bed and leave to sleep on the couch, but as fate would have it Gajeel wasn't going to get his way.
'No no no no no' he thought looking down at the little hand clasped in a death grip around the edge of his shirt. Carefully he tried removing his shirt and he got it off but now she was holding his wrist.
"Well I guess there's no getting out of this one" he sighed and climbed in beside Levy and as her grip loosened, his breathing evened out and he was sound asleep, without even noticing the smirking exceed in the doorway.
The Next Morning
Gajeel woke up to a cold, empty bed. He sighed as he got up noticing her scent was gone.
'Does she hate me that much? To just leave without a word? I get that I probably deserve it, but then, why does my heart hurt when she isn't here?' He thought.
He walked into the kitchen surprised to find Levy cooking breakfast.
'Why can't I smell her scent yet she was here all night' he thought
"Good morning Gajeel!" She said smiling at him
"'Morning" Was all he could manage to get out before his mouth started drooling as he saw all of the iron she had made for him.
Pantherlily walked in a little bit after Gajeel noticing all of the food laid out on their dining table, especially the ones that had kiwi in them.
Levy giggled seeing both of them in awe of her cooking/magic skills.
With both of their stomachs rumbling the guys sat themselves at the table and started to eat but not how they usually eat, no both of them had the same simple question in their head that had a not so simple answer.
'Why?'
TIMESKIP
The boys were about to leave their house still confused then Gajeel finally asked what had gotten into her
"Hey Shrimp?"
"Yeah Gajeel?"
"Why'd you come to our house in the fist place?"
She walked outside the door, about a few feet away from the house, with a familiar grin stretching across her face and said
"To do this"
With a wave of her hand a box of runes appeared around their house trapping Lily and Gajeel inside. But of course that wasn't all, nope, no way she was going to end it here, this is when the fun begins.
