Author's Note: I do not own Fairy Tail and I don't make a profit off of this.
In cause you didn't check up on 'Stubborn Fairies', that story is currently on semi-hitaus. Right now I'm hurrying to have enough written to post things for both Gajevy Love Love Week and this story while I'm at Gencon from the 13th-18th.
Thank you BRSxANE, Deaththesyd, and Sketcher1994 for your reviews!
Chapter Six: Journey
"GAJEEL!" Levy screamed as she watched him convulse from the lightening. For whatever reason, he'd turned his body to iron, which only made it worse. Tears streamed down her face as she caught his body. It was too heavy for her to hold, so she laid him down as carefully as possible.
The anger was clear in her eyes as she glared at the woman in front of her who'd done that to him. Levy had never been tempted to kill someone before, but she felt that way then.
'Fire'
Levy used the time her magic had given her to put herself in front of her unconscious lover, determined to protect him like he'd just done for her.
The woman came at Levy with the lightening charged pole once again.
'Guard'
The barrier prevented the woman from getting any closer for a moment.
Yoichi took advantage of the time and used his magic to bind Levy's feet to the ground, like he'd done when they were first trapped.
Levy was panicked for a moment, not liking that she was stuck in the same place during a fight.
'Fire'
She directed that one at the man. The guard spell ended right afterwards.
'Stone'
It temporarily pushed back the woman.
This wasn't good. She would eventually run out of magic and be stuck where she was. Unless she defeated the man first.
Levy took a deep breath. She would attack him with everything she had.
'Fire' 'Stone' 'Swords' 'Storm'
All were directed at Yoichi. Takara took advantage of the moment, discarding her lightening rod in favor of a sword. Clearly the previous weapon used up a lot of magic.
Levy tried to duck out of the way, but it was nearly impossible with her feet stuck to the ground. The sword managed to leave a pretty bad wound on her arm. The bookworm screamed in pain, but forced herself to continue. She needed to defend Gajeel!
'Stone' 'Iron'
She pushed Takara away before turning her attention back towards Yoichi, who wasn't looking too good.
'Snow' 'Ice' 'Arrows'
By the end of her barrage, Levy could move again. Yoichi was down. Now she just had to defeat the woman.
Levy didn't know how good her chances were. She was almost out of magic. She maybe had enough left for one or two more spells. She rushed back over to Gajeel, making sure to put herself between him and any harm.
'Fire'
Levy knew that wasn't going to do anything. But she had to try.
"You two are going to stay here until we turn your magic into lacrimas. I will make sure of it." Takara snarled as she raised her sword. Levy closed her eyes tightly, prepared to take the damage.
Then there was a clinging sound that she recognized as two swords making contact. Levy opened her eyes and saw PantherLily, defending her and pushing Takara back.
"Sorry it took so long. I sent a message to the guild asking for backup." he said before moving forward to finish the battle.
"Lily!" she exclaimed happily before suddenly feeling really weak. The bluenette collapsed to her knees, unable to hold herself up anymore. She was bleeding quite a bit from the injury the woman had inflicted on her. But she'd kept Gajeel safe long enough. Lily was easily winning his fight. They were going to be safe.
Levy groaned in pain as she woke up. Her shoulder was so stiff and her head hurt. But she'd had worse, she would be fine. Her eyes snapped open as she remembered what had happened.
She was in a room, likely a hotel or an inn of some sort. She turned to her side and saw that Gajeel was in a separate bed in the same room. He didn't look too good, which was sadly to be expected.
Levy forced herself to get up and move to the other bed. She sat by his side, sad to see him like that.
"You're so stupid, doing something like that." she whispered, not knowing that he was awake. The dragon slayer opened one eye and forced a weak smile.
"Sorry." he managed to say, though Levy could tell that he was in pain.
"You made me worry so much. You turned into iron and only made it worse for yourself you big dummy." she choked out, unable to stop her crying. She was sad to see him like that, though also happy that he was awake.
"I'm so sorry."
"No don't be. I promise it'll be alright. I understand. Just stay with me, okay?"
"I feel like I don't have any other choice shrimp."
Levy laid down next to him. She was still weak, but she felt stronger when she was next to him.
"New Years Day." he whispered, confusing Levy. It was October, why was he saying something about New Years Day? She looked down at him, confusion clear on her face.
"Master has been wanting us to set a date. Lets get married on New Years Day." he explained before wincing in pain, his hand going to his head.
"That sounds perfect Gajeel. Get some sleep okay?" she whispered comfortingly before pressing a gentle kiss on his forehead.
Gajeel's recovery was slow, even after Wendy arrived and healed him as best as she could. It was clear that it would be a few more weeks before the headaches left and he could continue like normal. So the group decided to head home. Wendy cast troia on Gajeel and left the engaged couple in their own compartment.
"How do you feel?" Levy asked as she laid down next to him. He wrapped his arm around her, pulling her body against his.
"Better. That kid sure knows how to fix people up."
She smiled before pressing her lips against his.
"I can't wait until you feel better. There are so many things I want to do to you." Levy whispered seductively, causing Gajeel to actually blush.
"Ah, well. First I need to tell you...or show you something. There's a uh...book in my bag. Wendy gave it to me because of what was on page 27..."
Please Review! Thank you!
I wish I was better at writing fight scenes. I asked for some help on tumblr, but checked it too late. I now have some awesome new solid script spells thought! Let me know if you have some that I didn't use!

Chapter Seven: Planning
Lucy couldn't help but giggle. These two were such opposites. They wanted completely different things when it came to the wedding. They would have to compromise, but she really didn't want to have to be the one to tell them that!
