Levy erased everything she wrote. She stared at the question again, and then tried again. And again, the answer was wrong. Argh!
"Oi!" She didn't look up because she knew the voice. He called her again. She quickly put two fingers in the air.
"Two minutes. Let me finished this." Suddenly she felt something.
"What are you doing?" he asked, from above her shoulder. He looked intensely to her book. Levy felt her cheeks warm. His light breath brushed her cheek, making shivers went down her spine. "Wrong." He startled her. He tapped on her book, where her calculations wronged. "This is wrong. Here." He took her pencil and pushed her hand away, so he could have a space to write. He scratched something next to her calculations. "There," he said while putting down her pencil. "See where you're wrong." Levy analyzed her mistakes. Then she realized it. "Got it? Now, get me books." He pulled her off her chair.
She led him to a bookshelf. The bookshelf was a little hidden from the rest. It because it was the oldest and the biggest bookshelf in the library. He explained the assignment he needed to finish to her.
"Go pick the best books," he said. Her eyes widened.
"Why me? Why don't you pick yourself?" she asked.
"You're a librarian, right?" She nodded. "Then, you must know which books good and which not." She wanted to protest but she didn't know what else to say because what he said was true.
"Fine." She scanned the shelf before climbed up a ladder provided. Gajeel, at the same time, looked for books himself. "Here's the books."
"Throw it down." He looked up, but then he quickly looked down to the floor. "W-white p-panties?" he asked himself. Suddenly he fell on the floor.
"Oi! Watch out where you throw the book!" He shouted which earned 'sshhh' from other librarian. She mouthed 'sorry'. He brushed his head where the thick book fell on.
The next time she threw him a book, he waited to catch the book. At the same time, he tried hard not to look at her skirt. After around 10 books, she climbed down the ladder.
"Is it enough?" She sat next to him, watching him drawn into books again. She just received a 'hmm' from him. She slowly got on her feet to leave.
"Wait." He held her wrist. His other hand stills writing and his eyes still on books. Her heart almost exploded. It raced faster in her chest.
"W-what?" She tried hard to hide nervous and acted calm. Her eyes fell on his hand around her small wrist. Was her hand looked small or was his hand big?
"Take that book. Look for this information." He let her hand go and gave her a piece of paper. "I need to give this to Juvia today."
"Juvia?" Suddenly her heart boiled. "Why?" He didn't pay attention to her.
"Ah, what did you say? Did you say something?" He quickly change book to another.
"No. Nothing." She quickly did as he wanted her to. Sometime she glanced at him.
"Gajeel, how long have you known Juvia?"
"What? Juvia? Nah, I don't remember. We've been friends since we're kid. We went to the same school since in Hargeon." Levy nodded.
"She's beautiful, right?"
"Hm…She's an idiot. Jellal's fanatics." He seemed didn't like Jellal. "Let me see your works." He pulled papers from her hands. He then took the book Levy used just now. "You can't do this. That girl will copy it straight." He gave her back the papers. "And this is plagiarism." She stared at him as he returned to his works.
"Why Juvia?" she asked.
"I don't really have much friend. She's the only one I got. One I trust."
Levy quickly stood and ran away. Gajeel watched her with a confused face. "What the heck is that bookworm?"

Levy spread herself on her table. She didn't give attention to the lesson like she usually was. A short conversation she had with Gajeel really disappointed her. He made her very upset. She glanced at Juvia. That girl was paying her full attention to the lessons and taking some notes.
What's so good about her? If her blue hair, I have blue hair too. Is it because she's taller? More curvaceous? Because she has bigger breasts? And I'm flat? WHY? He didn't even look at me! Why am I attracted to him? He just come the library when he had assignments to finish. He even admits he hates books. Even Juvia said so. Juvia again. Why there's always Juvia with him?
Levy sighed. Why she had to feel that way to him? Someone so insensitive. Someone so rough. And why she had to be jealous to Juvia? They know each other for a long time. They even been together before they entered Magnolia high. Why she had to be so upset and frustrated?

As the class ended, Juvia went to Gajeel's class. But he wasn't there. Without she realized, Gray followed her. He was about to greet her when she stopped Levy to ask about her bestfriend. But, before Levy answered Gajeel called her.
"Juvia!" Gray hid behind a pillar. Juvia ran to him and slid her arm around his. She looked very happy to see him. Levy quickly leave, before someone got killed.
"Let's watch movie," Juvia suggested.
"No." Gajeel gave her a stacked of papers.
"Assignment again?" She took papers from him.
"Yes. And do not make mistake. I got half mark for previous assignment. How'd you do your work?" He looked furious. Juvia giggled.
"Don't mad. It was your fault too. Juvia can't understand your writing. She told you to correct your handwriting. She can't finish the assignment with such bad handwriting." She gently punched his chest. "Let's watch movie. Juvia already asked Aya-san bought the tickets. Then, Juvia will do your assignment. Juvia will be careful."
"You better be," he warned. Juvia giggled.
As they leaved far from him, Gray unhidden himself.
"Assignment?"
"So you noticed it too?" Gray turned to find Erza leaned against the pillar. "I think Juvia is too naïve. He is using her because of her naivety and intelligence," Erza explained.
"You mean?"
"Juvia is the new sponsored student. You might not hear it because she came when you went for your competition." Gray nodded.
"Got any idea?" Erza smirked.
