I am going to be trying to make the chapters longer, as requested. If you see the chapter numbers change don't worry, everything is still here. Thanks for all the great feedback. This is one of my favorite parings, because i think it has so much potential. (not that I don't like some of the more popular ones but everyone is entitled to their own feelings.)
Feedback is always welcome!
I sadly do not own the characters!
When the celestial mage woke up the next morning, she felt rested without her furnace of a partner crowding her bed. She could hear sounds of someone puttering around her kitchen, climbing out of her bed she made her way to see who was in her apartment now. Lucy smiled when her pink haired spirit, Virgo, handed her a hot cup of coffee.
"Good morning, princess, I have made you breakfast and packed a lunch for the iron slayer and yourself. Punishment?" there was a little smirk playing around the edges of her mouth.
"No punishment Virgo, but thank you." Lucy smiled brightly at her friend. She really did love her spirits, they took such good care of her.
"If that will be all princess, I will grab your bag." the stoic maid walked out of the kitchen and grabbed Lucy's bag that was beside the door. This was a normal thing for the key holder and spirit. Virgo would hold onto the necessity items until Lucy would need them.
"Thank you again Virgo, you are too sweet to me." Lucy smiled and took a deep drink of her coffee. It was just what she needed before traveling this morning. She waved to the pinkette as she poofed back to the spirit world. Looking at the clock she knew that she had about an hour before she had to leave to meet Gajeel at the station. The blond finished up her breakfast, washed her dishes and headed to the bathroom.
Feeling much more alert after her shower, Lucy dressed in a pair of fitted jeans, knee high boots, and blue fitted wrap shirt that showed off a nice amount of cleavage. She wanted to be able to move comfortably and she, honestly, wanted Gajeel to take her seriously on this mission. The blond loved her team, but between them she was always coddled and felt like she had not grown much as a mage. Natsu, Gray and Erza were powerhouses in the guild and sometimes she really felt like she would never measure up to the bar they were at.
With a sigh, Lucy pushed those thoughts to the back of her mind. It wouldn't do to dwell on things before going out. After locking her apartment, she called out Pluu to join her on her walk to the train station. The people around her waived good morning to the happy blond, as Pluu wiggled in her arms, making the celestial mage smile.
When she arrived at the station, the blond looked around for Gajeel. Finding him she walked over to the post he was leaning against. A stray thought jumped in her head, 'Stars! He looks sexy like that.' She stopped short with that thought and tried to shake it out of her head. 'Ok, that was completely random.'
"Morning Gajeel" Lucy greeted with a smile.
"Morning Bunny." The man really did not sound like a morning person. "I got the tickets."
The blond huffed, "I could have paid for my own," Sighing, she really didn't want people to thinking she was helpless anymore, "but thanks."
Gajeel narrowed his eyes, but nodded. "You can get the way back, so its fair." With his gruff words the brown eyes brightened and she nodded her head in agreement.
