Battle Scars

"And this one?"

Draped against his side, the blue-haired bookworm inquired gently. Delicate fingers tickled the skin above his belly button. Trailing along the faded edges of a scar, Levy looked up at him.

Gajeel huffed, leaning back into the pillows. "A training accident."

"When?" she whispered.

The gentle brushes did not cease. A subtle groan rumbled in his throat before he caged her tiny hand within his own.

"When I was with Metalicana. It was a stupid mistake," he replied.

Therewas a moment of pause - a soft exhale that whispered across his skin. And then, lips pressed against the old scar in a tender kiss. A fluttering of warmth spread beneath his skin. His cheeks flushed with heat as he peered down at the doe-eyed mage.

Levy smiled. "There! All better."

Gajeel sputtered, embarassed.
