Chapter 2

He heads to her house after work picking up a rose from the flower stand on his way there. The streets were quiet where she lived. There were houses ten times the size of his house. He kind of liked the neighborhood she live in, it was peaceful and calm compared to the rowdy neighborhood he lived at.

He reached her house at last, it was a smaller white house in the middle of all the mansions. A black gate guarded the area leaving a two foot gap leading into the nicely mowed lawn. Along the front of the house there were flower bushes of all types. The front porch light was on as if telling him he was welcome in.

Heading toward the door he could smell the delicious food that seeped through the window. He had a good sense of smell, he could tell that she had made chicken and rice with potatoes and mac n' cheese for the side dish. The good smells made him drool, combined with the sweet smell of her perfume it was intoxicating. He stood there enjoying the smells when he realized he was still out side in the cold.


There was a knock at the door. She knew he would come, if he didn't she was going to have to call her friends Jet and Droy to accompany her in the big meal she had made. She was kind of glad it didn't resort to that.

She opens the door were Gajeel was waiting on the other side.

"Hello come on in." Smiling, she moves aside so he can come in.

Before he took a step he extended his arm towards her, "this is for you."

The rose was as red as his eyes. She couldn't help but stare at him because the way he was posing he looked like a prince. She snapped from her day dream and took the rose in her hands.

"Thanks your such a gentleman," she smiled and smelled the rose.


She smelled the rose, he couldn't help but slightly blush at the sight of her with the rose in her hand. She was like a painting so beautiful and elegant she was worthy of being hung on the wall.

He stepped inside the cozy house, her sweet smell was everywhere. His lungs filled up with her sent. She gestured him to sit down at the dinning room table. Her house was big on the inside, every thing was ether white or blue. A kitten clock hung on the wall, she had a kitten throw blanket on the white couch next to some books, and a picture of Fairy Tail's mascots hanging on the wall. 'Man she loves cats! For crying out loud she's wearing kitty slippers.' Grinning, he was surprised he didn't see a cat in the house.

He kept quiet while she placed the food on the table. It looked delicious he skipped lunch earlier attending to some idiot who was giving him a hard time and was now hungry as a bear. He hardly couldn't wait, his stomach grumbled with every minute that passed.

"Would you like some thing to drink?"

"What do you have?"

"Peach tea, lemonade..."

"Peach tea if you don't mind," cutting her off.

She took out two glasses from the cupboard and place them on the counter. Then takes out the peach tea and some ice. She comes to the table with the drinks in her hands.

"Sorry I didn't ask if you wanted ice."

"Its ok I like it with ice."

She sat across from him, then clapped her hands, "okay lets eat!" She serves her self a small portion of food while Gajeel has his plate full like an all you can eat buffet. She giggle at his eagerness to eat.

He pauses from stuffing his face, "man you're a great cook any man would be lucky to have you." He grins at her then continues to eat.

The blue haired lady's face began to burn. She tried to hide it by looking down at her own plate, then reaches for seconds on the mashed potatoes to finish her rice.

As they finished eating Gajeel brings his hands behind his head and leans back on his chair, "wow I'm full! Thanks for the food it was great."

"I'm glad you enjoyed it!" she smiles at him kindly. "I hope you left room for desert!" She winks at him which only made him blush a bit.

"You made desert?" He raises an eyebrow.

"Well no it was store-bought. I had a discount on any cake in the store so I said what the hey since I knew you were coming." She digs her finger to her cheek, trying to keep her nerves down.

She heads to the kitchen and opens the fridge. She takes out a white box that had a red lace tied on to it like a gift. She gets two plates from the cabinet and a knife out of the drawer. Then heads back to the dinning room table. She unties the box and opens the lid. You can tell it was professionally made. It had a golden logo on the box reading "Forever Green", that was that famous store on the other side of the city.

He sat there quietly while she took the cake out of the box. The top of the cake was covered in a red semi gooey spread. Topped off with pieces of dark chocolate squares, white chocolate, and raspberries placed upon the border of the cake making it look more like a center piece then a cake. Bread hugged the walls of the cake with a red string holding it in place.

"I hope you like raspberry. It's one of my favorites."

He stares at the cake without saying a word.

"Oh I knew I should have bought chocolate. Everybody..."

He cuts in, "no its fine I like raspberry. I was just surprised on how much we have in common."

She smiles at his comment, "well that's a good thing hu?" She cuts the cake and places two pieces of cake on the plates. She hands him one of the cakes, " oh I forgot the forks!" She rushes in to the kitchen nervously opening the drawers trying to find forks. After a few seconds she comes back with two forks and some napkins. " Sorry sometimes I forget where I put the forks," she laughs.

We dug into the cake on our plate. The cake was off the charts, it was layered spongy cake, moose, spongy cake, moose, and the thin layer of the red gooey topping. The cake melted in your mouth with every bite and the gooey substance gave it a strong taste lingering in your mouth after you're done. I craved for more cake, but I didn't want to seem greedy.

"Good isn't it?"

"very," responding raising his brow.

"Would you like another?"

"Nooo I'm alright."

"Well I'm sure having seconds." she reaches for another piece, "You sure?" Before he could react she puts another piece on his plate. "I know you want it!" she laughs. He feels like a shy little kid getting spoiled.

The night went by fast. They chatted a little with the random topics Levy would ask. They were enjoying each others company. Then a knock came upon the front door.

"Levy!" Knock knock. "Levy!" Voices came form out side. Gajeel gives a questioning look, and Levy just sighs.


On the other side of the door two men with tight ponytails, one with black and the other with orange hair, were knocking at her door.

"Why isn't she answering?" the black haired man asked.

"I don't know but she needs to answer soon," the orange haired added.

The door nob turns and the door opens halfway revealing a shorter then average blue haired girl standing at the door. "What do you guys want. Didn't I tell you guys no visits today." She pauses, "I'm busy."

"I know I know but this is important!", the black haired said excitedly. She just stares at them. "Um can we come in?" They try to look over her shoulder then through the window. "You have company?" Her mouth drops wanting to say something, but they just push through her. Looking around they spot Gajeel sitting at the dinning room table. Gajeel just waves at them.

"What are you guys doing?", she puts her hands to her hips.

"You have company and that's why you didn't want us over?" the black haired guy said. "Who is he? Why is he here? We don't know him. He is not approved. He isn't right for you." He leans in, "he looks worse then that one kid you dated in high school."

She laughs at the flash back, "you guys are too over protective." 'And this is why I currently don't have a boyfriend.'

"We just want what's best for you," the orange haired said said in a softer tone.

"It's just dinner. We are discussing... important topics. It's business related."

"Just dinner...", the black haired guy rolls his eyes. "Every thing always starts off with just dinner."

"Guys get out!" Now she looked frustrated. "I'm in a middle of a friendly dinner and you just had to come and ruin it! I'll talk to you later," she points toward out side.

They look back at the heavy metal looking man then back at her, "but..."

She pushes them out side, "good night. Later kay?!" she closes the door behind them. They look at her door like its unfamiliar then walk off in to the cold night. They weren't convinced the dinner was business related, by the way that man looks he looks like trouble.


Back in the house. "What was that about?", Gajeel sounding interested.

She sits across from him, "they're... they're my friends the orange haired one is Jet and the other guy is Droy." She shakes her head, "their over protective. I'm a grown woman you know. I can make my own decisions. Ever since...", she stops her self. "uh... but yeah you know some times I need some space."

"Why don't you tell them?"

"Its not that easy, they won't listen."

"What a pain in the ass," he puts his hand to his face.

"Tell me about it."

They both laugh, then they stayed silent.

"Hey I have to go. You know..." He moves his hands side to side, "work tomorrow and its getting kind of late."

"Yeah yeah I know." She gets up from her seat and leads him to the door, he follows behind her. She opens the door and he steps out, "bye,"she smiles as she clings on to the door.

He turns back "bye."

Before he leaves her porch the blue haired girl burst, "I had fun. Thanks for coming."

He looks into her eyes then grins, "any time."He turns and leaves her porch.


A bit short but here's their dinner date thingy not really. Rest of the chapters will be this length. Is Jet and Droy too over protective or is this man sitting in Levy's house bad news? What is Levy hiding?
