A/N: Here we go again! If you guys are enjoying this, please please PLEASE leave a review. Especially if you have any suggestions of what you want to see ;-) As always, plenty of fluff ahead. There is LEMON in this chapter, consider yourselves warned.
Like always, I own a dog and a lot of anime, but unfortunately I don't own Fairy Tail.
At 6pm, Gajeel's phone chirped loudly, disturbing him from his writing. Annoyed, he picked up the device to read the message from an unknown number. It was a link to the Simple Minds song "Don't You". His annoyance forgotten, he quickly saved the number, shooting off a quick reply before he quickly dressed and left the flat.
Levy smiled at the chimes coming from her phone. Unlocking it, she had to laugh - he'd sent her a song in return, Rick Astley's "Never Going to Give You Up". And the accompanying message warmed her heart.
G - See you soon xxx
Levy turned back to the mirror to finish her preparations for the night out.
She was applying the last coats of mascara when her doorbell rang.
"It's open!" she shouted, loudly enough that Gajeel could hear and let himself in. Smacking her lips together, she dropped her lipstick into her back and slid into her flats.
Gajeel had been playing with Lily, and looked up when she walked into the room. Holy hell, was she this attractive this morning? He swallowed, mouth suddenly dry, as he raked his gaze over her.
Lean legs looked as if they'd been poured into the dark denim, and Gajeel could only imagine how her already spectacular ass would look. Black singlet hugged every curve, skimming over the low waist of her jeans. He felt oddly proud that she was wearing a band shirt, a band he'd introduced her to, no less. The low neck exposed a large amount of creamy skin from her slender neck, all the way down to the gentle swell of her breasts. She'd left her hair down, the longest parts curling softly at the ends, fridge sitting low over one eye. Her long, dark lashed framed her eyes, giving her a doe-eyed look, and her lips - her soft, delicious lips - were stained a dark, red win colour.
Gajeel blushed as she smiled at him, his blatant staring hadn't gone unnoticed.
"Like something you see?" Levy's voice was low, husky with desire. The low slung jeans and tight shirt he was wearing were leaving very little to her imagination. The thick dark hair, flowing freely down his back was tempting her, her fingers itching to run though it.
"Stunning." Gajeel breathed, crossing the floor in two strides, gathering the short woman in his arms and kissing her dark lips fiercely.
Levy steered them towards the couch, climbing onto his lap so she could grind her denim covered core against his. Gajeel groaned at the sensation, as levy began to kiss and gently nip at the skin on his jaw and neck.
"'Jeel" she murmured in between kisses. "We shouldn't. We'll, ah! We'll be late". Her hands were already working on his belt, as his fingers were unzipping her jeans ans sliding inside.
"They can wait."
Even Gajeel himself was surprised at how fast he'd moved, pinning Levy against the arm of the couch, sliding down her jeans and panties, and thrusting inside of her in one fluid motion.
"Ah! Fuck, Lev, you feel so good."
Levy giggled quietly, arching her back to draw him closer. "Don't make us late."
Gajeel blinked in shock. Is she challenging me? He smirked at the blue hair in front of him. Then challenge accepted.
Setting a bruising pace, he slammed his hips against hers. Brushing her hair to the side, he bit down hard into her shoulder as one of his hands snaked down between her legs, pinching and rolling the bundle of nerves he found there. He grinned as he felt her tense underneath him, moaning loudly. His victory was short lived though, as her body convulsed against him, her walls pulsing rhythmically around his cock pulling him into his own release.
The conversation at dinner was easy, everyone curious about Levy's studies and the travels she'd undertaken. She was just finishing telling everyone about her research trip to the sites in Yucatan when the first round of food arrived. A comfortable silence fell over the group, until Natsu opened his mouth and asked the question on everyone's minds.
"So, are you two like, together now, or what?"
Levy nearly choked on her mouthful, as Gajeel made a concerted effort not to spray his water all over the table.
"Natsu!" Lucy slapped his arm. "You can't just ask people things like that!" She turned to face her blushing friends. "Feel free to ignore him, he was obviously raised by wild animals."
"But Luce" he whined. "They've got sex hair! There's gotta be a story there."
Gajeel fixed his cousin with a look that would have terrified any normal person. "None of your business, pinky" he growled.
Natsu was completely unaffected by the look he was receiving, smiling and continuing to eat.
Back at Levy's, Gajeel grabbed his bag before following Levy inside.
"Really, a bag already?" Levy teased.
Gajeel knew she was teasing, but he couldn't help but prickle at her words. "Got a problem with it?"
Levy sighed, her shoulders slumping. "No, Gajeel. I have a problem with your attitude."
"My attitude?" Gajeel hissed out. "You're the one being difficult."
"You know what, Gajeel, if you're going to be like this, you should just go. I don't want to fight with you any more."
He wanted to go to her, wanted to wrap his arms around her and holder her close, apologize until he was hoarse. Instead, his pride snapped, and before he could stop himself he was stomping out the door, slamming it behind him.
Standing on the step at her front door, he sat down heavily and listened to the sound of her sobbing quietly inside. Was this it for them? Were the last 24 hours just a way for them to get each other out of their systems? Gajeel dropped his face into his hands, internally groaning at the way he'd managed to effectively ruin their new relationship already. His temper always had been their problem - he'd get mad, she'd bite back, they'd end up just screaming at each other. Sometimes they'd even resort to throwing things when their fights got even more passionate.
Rubbing his face, Gajeel spoke out loud to himself "oh, fuck it" and, praying that she hadn't locked him out, carefully turned the knob. He let out a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding when the door swung open.
Levy was on the couch, her petite frame curled up impossibly small as she held a cushion to her chest, eyes red from tears.
Gajeel moved slowly, trying not to startle her. "Levy, honey?"
She blinked rapidly, trying to clear her vision. Surely her eyes were playing tricks on her - there's no way the big, bad Gajeel Redfox was kneeling in front of her looking remorseful. "Gajeel?"
He gently rested his hands on her knees. "I'm here, Lev. I'm so sorry."
She smiled slightly, wiping her face with one hand. "You should be."
"I know. I didn't mean to upset you. I just, you know what I'm like. I'll try harder, if you'll let me? I can go, if you want..."
Levy tossed the pillow over to the armchair, holding her arms out to a very relieved Gajeel, who took a seat next to her, pulling her onto his lap and wrapping his arms around her.
"I don't want you to go anywhere, Gaj. But this, us? It's going to be hard."
"I don't care." He kissed the blue hair tucked against his shoulder. "I don't care how hard it is. I let you go once, and I regretted it every day since. I'm not going to do it again." He gently pushed her away from him, thumb gently stroking the tear tracks on her cheek. "I'll try and keep my temper in check. And hey, at least we didn't break anything this time!"
Levy giggled. "Well, I guess that's progress." She yawned, then squeaked in surprise when Gajeel stood, easily holding her small frame against his chest.
"I think it's time for bed, Shrimp." His voice rumbled above her as he carefully lowered her onto the bed before backing away.
Levy's hand shot out, latching firmly onto his wrist. "Stay? Please?"
Gajeel smiled, lifting his arm to kiss her fingers. "I'll be back in a second."
Levy quickly stripped off down to her lace panties, and shimmied out of her bra, leaving the singlet on. She was just climbing off the bed when Gajeel turned sheepishly, holding his bag in one hand. Offering him a smile, she moved into the ensuite bathroom to wash off the remnants of her make up. She was finishing up brushing her teeth when Gajeel appeared in the doorway. He'd stripped down to just a pair of cotton boxers, and Levy took the opportunity to appreciate the view.
Gajeel quirked an eyebrow, but said nothing as her eyes roamed over his body.
Pressing a kiss to his bicep, she pushed passed him. "Bathroom's yours." Levy could hear him getting ready for bed as she moved through the small house, locking doors and turning off lights, climbing into bed just as he finished in the bathroom.
Gajeel slid into the bed next to her, holding her close to his chest.
"Hey, 'Jeel?"
"Mmmm?"
"I'm sorry about, y'know, earlier."
"Shrimp, you got nothin' to be sorry you." He gently kissed the top of her head, searching for her hand in the darkness and intertwining their fingers. "That was all me, 'kay?"
"Mmmm." She snuggled against his warmth. "So, Juvia and Gray, huh?" Referring back to the news they'd been given at dinner.
"I know. Poor kid, having Gray as a dad."
"Honestly though, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner."
"Me too, the way those two go at it. But Juvia seem's happy."
"She'll be a good mum."
"So would you."
Levy gasped, sitting up slightly, as Gajeel blushed - thankful for the darkness hiding it as he realised what he'd said.
"I mean... I, just... You know. Someday, if that's what you, uh, wanted..."
Levy giggled at his stammering, leaning down to softly press a chaste kiss against his lips to silence him. "Thank you. You'll make a wonderful father someday, if you decide you want to."
Gajeel huffed, pulling the bluenette back down against him. "What do you wanna do tomorrow?"
"Gotta work the lunch rush, but then I'm all yours."
"'Kay. Pick you up when you finish?"
"Mmmm, that'd be nice." She sighed, curling up against him as she drifted off to sleep. "Love you, Gaj."
"Love you too, Lev."
A/N: OKAY WOW There is so much fluff in this chapter, I think I need to visit the dentist.
Just kidding, I hate that place. I should hopefully have more up tomorrow for you all.
Remember, reviews make authors worlds go round!
