Author's note: I know, this chapter is a little short, but I couldn't just leave on a vacation and NOT give you guys something to feast upon, right? As a treat, I'm gonna make the next chappie a little sensual, maybe even sexy (if that's gonna be the case, then I'm gonna upload it on DevArt or AdultFF, we'll see how it goes)
Anyway, my dreams have been inspiring me again, and I'm working on two more (new) fics. And, yes, my toddler and are getting to the Tenroujima arc ASAP, so a new chappie from The Dragon Tamer is right around the corner. AGAIN, THANKYOUFORYOURINFINITEPATIENCE!
Julianna Tala , from my point of view, we don't get too many cat fight in the manga...
Animeguitar96 , I'm glad you enjoyed it! I hope my other fics have pleased your eyes, as well.
Lexie loves anime , not as big as Gajeel, if you catch my drift *naughty wink* And I bet Lucy will 'help' her with packing, doncha worry about it
Sunshine , never growing tired of THANKING my fans!
MakeItHayle , I know, I know... ^^' ... this is why I don't like to bet or to promiss, because I can't keep 'em. But my brain decides when to start a new fanfic, so you can blame me and my brain. I accept the punishment. As fot the review, I though (and felt) the characters were a bit OOC in The Beach, but HEY, they were alone... I mean... I'm a bit like that with my ex-bf-actual-hubby when we were alone... so... *shush* And, as always, I'm a hopeless romatic at heart, too, thanks to my 'I-wanna-shove-my-foot-up-his-arse-ometimes' hubby. He's a true romantic (even though he denies everything, even if present proof)
GuestL , I am honored to be among your first fanfic writers that touched you. I truly hope my oother fics have been as good as The Beach in your eyes.
BlackLothus , yep, she's going DOWWWWWNNNN!
All in all, thank you for all the patience and love and reviews abd reading my fics... And everything! By the way, I'd love to see a review/comment in your native language! (Of course, please consider the writer, as well, since I only know 4 languages: Romanian, English, Spanish and Japanese, so add a translation, as well, if you guys happen to not be a speaker of those 4 languages)
As a spoiler, I'm working on translating my fics from English to Spanish.
CHAPTER 2
Fairy Tail had a blast on Akane Resort, Makarov being very pleased with his children after they managed to get back home without breaking anything. Mirajane exchanged ideas with Gajeel as he was busy creating a sketch for his place. Lily flew around town and gathered the construction materials for their new place.
Levy, however, sulked with a book in her lap. Lucy noticed her standing at her usual place in the Fairy pub, looking very glum.
"Hey, Levy-chan. I finished another chapter from my novel, wanna come on over tonight and read it? We can have a slumber party." Lucy tried to cheer Levy up, but the bluenette shook her head.
"Not tonight, Lu-chan. Sorry..."
"Are you OK? You seem... down for some reason..." The blonde girl took a seat next to her friend, wrapping an arm around her neck. "Is everything all right between you and Gajeel?"
"Yeah... He's great! I've never felt like this. He treats me like a princess, and the way he looks at me... It's like I'm the only one in the world."
"...But?" Lucy smiled when Levy snapped her eyes to stare at her.
"There's always a but... I dunno... I feel like everything's going a bit too fast... And I can't back down now... I mean, just look at him!" She waved to an oblivious Gajeel, Lucy noticing he was smiling fondly at the paper in front of him. "He's really serious about this! And he's put so much heart in this project..."
"Levy, do you like him?" The bluenette blinked surprised.
"Of course! I think it's much more than just 'like'..." Levy blushed, looking away.
"Do you like spending time alone with him?"
"Where is this going..."
"Just answer the question." Lucy smiled like she knew something.
"Well... yeah... Very much, actually..." She blushed a hot shade of red, remembering the night from Akane resort.
"Then what's the problem? Why would you wanna back down from moving in with the guy that treats you more than great? We all know how loyal of a friend he is, and how dedicated. He can protect you better than anyone and he's a hard worker. So what's the problem?" Levy looked away, thinking. If her best friend put everything into light like that... there didn't seem to be any problem. "See? There's no problem. So just go with the flow. Move in with the guy. He's making it official and stuff, compared to Natsu, that block head moved in with me without even realizing it. Not that I'm complaining anymore..."
"You're right... Thank you, Lu-chan!" Levy smiled widely, hugging her best friend.
"What for, silly?"
"For getting rid of my fears. I'll go check on Gajeel, see how everything's coming along." The bluenette placed her book aside and ran to Gajeel, glomping him hard.
"Hey, squirt!" He ruffled her head, pecking her on the cheek.
"Need help with ideas for the sketch?" Gajeel stared at her, watching her intently as she pulled the sketches to her and started scanning them. "I don't like this design." She grabbed a pencil and the eraser, adding her own details to the future mini library.
"How about the bedroom?" Gajeel watched her amused, letting her do her stuff. He nodded impressed after he saw what Levy added. "Looks better. I'll get on it. Thanks, shrimp!" He kissed her softly and hurried to his place to add the new details.
"Dragons and their nesting…" Lucy giggled, knowing the Iron Dragon didn't even realize he was creating a place for his mate.
