Chapter 7.


*Lily's POV*

I felt like my body was moving but my feet dangled. I yawned and felt warmth around me. Snuggling close to it the smell revoked old memories.

Elektra had a similar smell...

Blinking I opened my eyes and stared directly into Laxus's orange orbs. He seemed amused.

I was in his arms. The hell!?

˝Finally awake, are we?˝ - he asked amused as I stared at him. I wanted to reply but my stomach growled and I blushed in embarrassment.˝

He stopped and looked at me surprised ˝Hungry?˝

I tried to get out od his grasp ˝Let me down! I can walk on my own Laxus! And it's lunchtime!˝- I huffed.

˝But you're a light weight, let me carry you˝ - the tone of his voice made my body stop and shiver. I wasn't cold. Gods know his body provided more than enough body heat. What was this feeling?

I averted my gaze and leaned on him. At least he's not attacking me or anything. Without a word he continued to the guild. I watched him. How his eyebrow twitched at my staring and how he unconsciously licked his lips. But he stubbornly watched the road ahead.

All this made me confused. Why was he behaving like this?

I went back to studying him and his body.

He was tall, muscled and had this aura around him.

Power.

He seemed powerful. Tsk, at least for some, I mused and remembered our fight. I didn't even break a sweat. He needs to work on his attacks more.

I saw the guild coming closer.

˝Put me down˝ - I said directly in his ear and he turned his head to me surprised. He blinked a few times but then nodded and finally put me down.

I eyes him curiously ˝You're a weird one˝ - I said and made my way sniffing food in the air.

˝That's precious coming from you˝ - came his deep voice making me shiver. Again. Damnit what's wrong with me?

˝Oh shove it princess˝ - I retorted.

People eyed me grinning and I heard their small talk turn to us. Laxus and the new girl.

Laxus and the little dragon slayer.

Laxus and.

Oh fuck me. I groaned and went straight to the bar to become greeted with Mirajane.

˝Why the long face?˝ - she asked happily.

˝Hungry and I hate hearsay. They're noisy and boring.˝ - I growled quietly.

She giggled next to a green haired boy- man? He turned to me with a frown. ˝What were you doing with Laxus?˝ - his voice was cold.

˝And you are again? Maybe his mother ˝ - I rolled my eyes and eyed Mirajane coming with my food.

Meat. I practically felt the drool sliding down my mouth.

˝Freed and you urgh are you this hungry? ˝- he asked disgusted by me showing my face with food.

˝Shut up and urgh just shut up˝ - I turned away from him and munched happy. Finally food in my tummy.

Where's Pepe?

I remembered the white Exceed. *grin* I giggled and shook my head. Yeah, not going to happen Pepe.

Absently I continued eating and didn't realize everyone sweat dropping at my antics.

Just as I finished my meal Master Makarov approached me.

˝I know it's early to ask but have you settled yet?˝ - he said in his soft voice. I nodded

˝Yeah and your grandson is a cocky ass but the rest are okay I guess˝

He laughed ˝Laxus will loosen up don't worry.˝ - Somehow that worried me more than him remaining an ass ˝I heard everybody wants to get tutored by you˝ - he said calmly and eyed me.

I spit out the beer I was drinking and shook my head ˝TUTORED? BY ME? WHY?!˝ - I'm sure my voice was pitched high and sounding stupid but I was too shocked to change that.

˝Why not? You have more experience then the most here and you could get to know the guild˝ - he grinned ˝I want you to do it˝ - his voice seemed like an order and I growled.

Fuck this.

˝Not going to happen. Dragon slayers maybe the rest fuck no. I'm not their sensei nor do I know their magic.˝ - I snapped. I have better things to do than act as teacher/babysitter.

˝Fine then, that's a start˝ - he didn't finish but I know what he meant. He won't take no as an answer. Good thing I'm stubborn.

¨I'll send Natsu and the rest now˝ - he walked off. I need to get out quick.

Laxus – he promised a tour of the city but he was somewhere. Shit.

My mind raced but there wasn't anybody I could ask.

˝Hey babe!˝- a visor got in my face and by instinct I raised my fist ˝Woow! Stop! I just wanted to see how you're doing!˝

Freak.

˝Show me the city˝ - I blurted out and watched as his face seemed shocked but then he lolled his tongue out ˝Sure thing doll!˝

Doll, babe? Seriously?

Tiki dolls came flying around me and pushed me to the door. I grinned and walked faster.

˝So eager to spend time with me? Oh doll˝ - the visor freak said behind me.

˝You never told me your name..˝ - I replied.

˝Bixlow and these are Pupu, Pepe, Pipi, Popo and Papa˝- he introduced his babies and lolled his tongue out.

How freakishly long was it? I stared at it as we walked to the city of Magnolia.

˝Tongue freak˝ - I mumbled and stretched. A good walk might do me good and I got away from Master Makarov. I smirked at the thought.

˝You seem to like it.˝- he mused

I rolled my eyes ˝Just glad I'm outisde˝ - honestly I was. I hated being indoor caged up. I loved being outside especially near trees. They calmed me so and they didn't talk.

˝What do you want to see out here? There's lots to do! I could show you all my- erm Magnolia's wonders˝- Bixlow said and his babies flied in an arrow shape. Did he just? I must have imagined it.

Laughing I said ˝Is there a park nearby?˝

Turning his visor he said ˝Know what? Screw Magnolia, there's a place in East Forest ˝ - his voice ended in a mysterious tone and my ears perked up.

˝Take me˝


I'm sorry for the late update.

I will take a break from writing ( colleges starting and I lost my muse)

I felt like my writing is becoming shitier with every chapter so I'll take a break to refuel my batteries :)

Hope you'll still read my stories, to the next time :)
