Two years had passed since Gajeel and Levy got together and things have taken a turn for the worst. Gajeel has been kicked out of their manor, moved into Natsu and Lucy's home, and now he and Levy are filing for a divorce! What will their friends do to keep them together and not make the biggest mistake of their lives?
"GET OUT!" She screamed "GET OUT AND DON'T COME BACK!" Levy Redfox, the wife of Gajeel Redfox the famous musician and former lead singer of the band The Elemental Dragons was throwing her husband's clothes onto their front lawn while Gajeel tried to reason with her.
"Come on Levy!" he begged "Please!"
"I don't want to hear it!"
"Shrimp! Please!"
"Just get out!" and with that said, she slammed the door and locked it.
That entire situation was three days ago. And where was Gajeel now you may ask? Sleeping on his former band mate and his wife's couch. Yes, you could say this was a new low for Gajeel Redfox, the former lead singer of The Elemental Dragons and now solo artist. But a lot of you are asking the same question when you read this; why? Why did Levy kick him out? What happened to our favorite Rock Star and College Student turned Manager? Right now, Gajeel is still trying to figure it out for himself! It started when Gajeel and Levy got married. Things were great! Sex everyday, Gajeel's albums were pouring in the cash, sold out concerts, they were living the Rock Star life!
But then came the day they got the biggest news of their lives; Levy was pregnant. This was going to be their first child and Gajeel was ecstatic, he was so happy he was going to have a child with the woman he loves. But when Levy reached the fifth month of pregnancy, something happened where she had to be rushed to the hospital immediately. It was then Levy and Gajeel found out that they lost the baby and it needed to be removed immediately. It was a horrible thing for them to go through, Gajeel took it pretty hard and even canceled a few concerts to be with Levy. Levy on the other hand, took it the worst. She was really looking forward to being a mother and she was only four months shy from giving birth. After the ordeal, Levy started to become more distant with Gajeel. And Gajeel, he tried to reach out, but he wasn't sure how. After that, their sex life started to suffer greatly, Gajeel was spending more time on the road and to make it worse, they were fighting more. Three nights ago was the worst fight ever; she finally snapped. He's been staying with Natsu and Lucy ever since.
Gajeel was now sitting on the couch inside Natsu and Lucy's home. He just woke up from another night on the leather couch thanks to Natsu's Russian Blue Tuxedo mix cat Happy constantly swatting at his piercings. After getting the damned cat off of him, he watched Natsu and Lucy walk into the room with morning coffee for the three of them.
"Morning." Lucy yawned.
"Morning blondie." Gajeel grumbled "Thanks again for letting me stay with you guys until the Shrimp and I work things out."
"Ah you would've done the same for me Gajeel." Natsu waved "Besides, Levy just needs to get laid. Just go see her later and get in there!"
"Natsu, it's not going to work like that." Lucy explained.
"We've seen a lot of Marriage Counselors like she wanted." Gajeel grumbled "But no mater what I do, I can't make her happy."
"I think Levy is just going through a lot." Lucy explained, knowing her best friend and former roommate better than the two musicians "I think she just needs some time to cope with it. Levy loves you and right now I think she's just going through a lot." Gajeel gave Lucy a small smile to show he feels she's right. A ring at the front door was soon heard and Natsu answered the door. A pregnant silence spreaded across the room until the sound of the front door closing was heard, and Natsu came back in with a manila envelope.
"Yo, Gajeel!" Natsu said "Mail call!"
"Who was that?" Lucy asked "We don't get mail on Sundays."
"It was some schmuck in a monkey suit. He asked me to hand this to Gajeel." Lucy paled at her husband's words; she knew this wasn't good.
Gajeel took the envelope from Natsu and opened it, careful not to tear anything. He pulled out the papers it contained and the moment he read the third sentence, Gajeel's tan skin turned pale.
"S-she filed for a divorce." Gajeel said in a shocked tone.
"What?!" Lucy screeched, grabbing the papers from Gajeel's hands and reading them for herself.
"Why? What did I do to deserve this?!"
"Seems to me, Levy's loonier than we thought." Natsu muttered.
"NATSU!" Lucy screamed. Gajeel didn't say a word to Natsu's comment. He continued to read the papers before standing up.
"I'm gonna go for a walk or whatever I don't give a fuck." Gajeel said in a dejected tone. He walked to the front door, put on his sandals and left.
"I can't believe it." Natsu said "I've never seen him like this before."
"I got a lunch date with Levy later today." Lucy explained "Maybe I can reason with her."
"Yeah. Please do, the quicker you talk to her, the quicker we can get him off our couch."
Lucy and Levy went out for lunch at Magnolia Cafe, eating sandwiches they ordered and a nice little late. It was quiet for a while until Lucy suddenly said something.
"So Levy..." Lucy began "How have you been lately?"
"Doing well." Levy explained "Mostly trying to pick up some new hobbies, or binge watching shows on my streaming service."
"You know Levy, I heard you filed for a divorce today." Levy stopped mid-bite at her words.
"What's your point?"
"Well, don't you think it would be better if you and Gajeel talked it out? I mean he really does love you."
"Doesn't seem like it to me."
"Levy," Lucy sternly said "he's been living on my couch for three days, he's depressed out of his mind, he just wants to work things out."
"Lu-chan!" Levy screamed "You don't understand!" Lucy looked and noticed Levy was beginning to cry "Ever since we lost the baby, he wouldn't even look at me! He won't touch me! It's like he doesn't see me as a woman anymore! When I was almost raped, he held me in his arms and sang to me. Now, he refuses to do anything!"
"Levy, that's not true-"
"Lu-chan, it's like he's not the man I fell for anymore!"
"He loves you and wants to do whatever makes you happy-" Levy suddenly got up.
"I'm sorry Lu-chan. But I think it's too late for me and Gajeel. We had something a while ago, but I think our time has passed." She payed her bill "I got to leave. I have a meeting with the divorce lawyer." she payed her portion of the bill and walked away after that, leaving a stunned Lucy behind.
"She's really a wreck." Lucy told Natsu and Gajeel that night after dinner. After Lucy's lunch with Levy, she went back home and began to tell the guys what happened "I've never seen her like that before. It's like she's a shell of her former self."
"What did she say exactly?" Natsu asked.
"She feels Gajeel wants nothing to do with her. Ever since the miscarriage, she feels Gajeel isn't the man she fell for anymore." the married couple looked at Gajeel who was sitting silently the entire time, they noticed he looked more depressed at Lucy's words.
"I always will do anything to make her happy." Gajeel finally said "If she wanted a new car, I'd give it to her, if she wanted to be dominate in the bedroom, I'd let her. If she wanted the world, I would do everything in my power to give it to her. If she wants this divorce and that's what will make her happy, I'll give it to her."
The Dragneels looked at Gajeel in shock.
"Are you serious?" Natsu asked "Gajeel! You got to try!"
"There's no point." Gajeel sighed "If this is going to make her happy, I'll do it. I'll do anything to make her happy, even if it means the end of mine. I'm going to watch the fucking TV." he sighed and left for the living room, but not before stopping by the freezer and taking the entire tub of ice cream and a spoon.
"What're we going to do?" Lucy asked "We can't let them get this divorce, they're making a huge mistake!"
"We're going to have to call the others." Natsu said "We gotta come up with something!" nodding at her husband's words, Lucy raced to her cellphone and did a multi-call with their friends.
Gajeel decided to go out for a little bit to get his minds off of things the next day, while his friends had their secret meeting. Gray and his fiancee Juvia, along with Laxus and his wife Mira, along with Jellal and his girlfriend Erza.
"We're really glad you guys could make it on such short notice." Lucy explained while passing drinks out.
"So, what's the deal?" Gray asked "Is something wrong?"
"Very wrong. Gajeel and Levy are getting a divorce." Everyone simultaneously spat their drink out.
"What?!" Mira cried.
"What the fuck is going on here?!" Laxus screamed.
"That's what we've been trying to figure out." Lucy sighed. She then began to tell them the tale of how things were suffering and for how long.
"I never expected this." Erza said solemnly.
"Juvia always thought they'd grow old together." Juvia cried.
"That's why we called you here." Natsu explained "We need ideas to get the back together and prevent this!"
"From what you and Lucy told us," Erza explained "this is going to be a bit of a challenge. Levy seems to have her mind set on this." silence spreaded across the room before Mira literally jumped off the couch.
"Maybe it would be best to give them a night to remind them why they fell in love in the first place!" she squeaked.
"How the hell are we gonna do that?!" Jellal asked, just as stunned as everyone-else.
"Maybe a romantic dinner!" Lucy said, as the idea was now coming to them "We rent out a restaurant to a private party-Gajeel and Levy, and then the whole night we play their favorite songs, slide-show photos and try to bring back the romance!"
"That sounds perfect!" Juvia squeaked, clapping her hands in delight.
"Just one question;" Gray asked "where in God's good name are we gonna rent a restaurant that will allow all this?" again, silence spreaded across the room before Natsu snapped his fingers.
"I know just the place!" Natsu smiled. He pulled out his cellphone and began to search his phone for the number he's looking for. He soon found the number and pressed it, soon getting a ringing tone.
"Natsu," Lucy asked "are you sure you should be asking...him?"
"He's the best one for the job!"
"But Natsu, I don't think it's a good idea, I mean the place he owns isn't top quality."
"No worries, we can fix it up for that night! Besides, he's a genius!"
"Natsu, he's a depressed schitzophrenic for God's Sake!"
"And my older brother."
"Zeref Dragneel speaking." a man's voice on the other line answered.
"Yo Zer!" Natsu smiled "It's Natsu, you available right now?"
"Natsu? The fuck you calling me for? I'm having sex with Mavis right now!"
"Oh God dude! She's thirteen! Why the hell are you pounding her?!"
"She's twenty three Natsu. And your future sister-in-law."
"Not my fault she looks like she just walked into a fifth grade classroom!"
"What do you want?" Zeref asked in a slightly annoyed tone.
"I need your help big bro," Natsu said "think you can stop by later today?" A moment of silence passed before he got a reply.
"Uh yeah. I got nothing going on later. I think I can swing by."
"Sweet! Thanks bro! I owe ya!"
"AUGH! Faster! Faster! Faster!"
"What do you mean faster? I'm talking as fast as I ca-" he was interrupted when the line went dead.
An hour passed since the conversation and a black BMW soon pulled into The Dragneel's drive way and a young man with short black hair, a muscle shirt, tan cargo pants, suede men's flip flops and a pair of aviator glasses made his way out of the car.
"Juvia never knew Natsu has an older brother." Juvia said stunned.
"He's not even known by the fans of The Elemental Dragons." Lucy shrugged "Heck, I didn't even know he existed till Natsu and I started dating."
"Why is he kept a secret?" Mira asked. Lucy sighed.
"After Natsu and Zeref's mother died, Zeref started showing different behaviors. When Natsu and Igneel, their dad, went into his room one day, they found Zeref trying to kill himself. They found out he was depressed and suffered from schizophrenia. He's been in and out of Mental Hospitals since. Natsu, since this is a big part of his life, he kept it hidden from the media so they'd leave Zeref alone. The only ones who know about him are the members of The Elemental Dragons, and me." the girls nodded at Lucy's words; Natsu really was a good brother.
Natsu opened the door and Zeref soon walked in, giving his little brother a quick hug.
"Good to see ya bro." Natsu smiled.
"What you need me for?" Zeref asked, putting his hands in his pockets. Natsu began to explain the situation to his older brother, starting from Gajeel and Levy's miscarraige up to their plans to get them back together.
"So let me get this straight. You want to get your two friends back together by planning a romantic dinner, at my restaurant Tataros?"
"That's right!" Zeref looked at his younger brother as if he was trying to see if he was serious, or just plain stupid.
"You do realize Tataros isn't a restaurant, but a titty bar?"
"I don't care." Natsu explained "Can't you just fix the place up for one night?"
"Natsu, you have a ton of money from your band days." Zeref explained "Basically, you're considered more than well off. You could rent out any restaurant in town for crap's sake. Why are you interested in renting out a titty bar for something like this?!"
"Because you owe me for not letting the media find out about you." Zeref looked at him with a blank yet serious look.
"Fine. For one night. But let me do some work to the place and have it sanitized."
"How sanitized does it need to be?" Lucy asked joining the conversation.
"A lot. The place needs to be scrubbed to the very foundation. I'll call Mard, see if he's ok with the plan." Zeref dialed the number on his phone and called his friend Mard.
The night that the plan was to take place was laid out perfectly. Natsu paid to have Tataros cleaned to the very foundation, a table with a romantic atmosphere around it, professional waiters, cooks and a projector built into the place.
"Is everything ready?" Lucy asked.
"Yep!" Natsu called out "Cooks are cooking the meals, Zeref put on the romantic music, and Gray and Juvia got the slideshow set up!"
"Excellent!" her phone suddenly buzzed and Lucy looked at who called her "That was Levy! She's on her way!" one of the doors opened up and they were all surprised to see Gajeel in a black buttoned up shirt, ripped jeans, a bandanna holding his hair back, black combat boots and his famous fur jacket rolling down his arms.
"This better be good Salamander." Gajeel growled. The other doors opened up and Levy walked in, wearing a silk black cocktail dress, black short heels and her hair held back with a black bandanna and a bun.
"Lu-chan," she said "wh-Gajeel?" she stopped herself when she spotted her ex-husband to be "W-what're you doing here?" Erza and Jellal locked the doors outside before returning back in.
"We got you both here for a reason." Lucy admitted "We know you guys are going through a lot and we don't want to see you both lose what you have. We called you here to try and work things out for you both."
"Lu-chan, that's nice of you, but Gajeel and I are over. What we had is gone. Now, I gotta go, there's some papers I nee-"
"You're not going anywhere." Gray interrupted "We worked hard to do all this for you both. You have no idea how depressed he's been!" he points at Gajeel "Give him a chance, and if it works out! Reconsider the divorce!"
Levy looked at Gajeel for a moment and noticed he was trying his best not to look at her. She could see a slight sadness in his eyes. Sighing in defeat Levy looked at her friends, unsure what to say.
"Fine." she said "I'll give it a try." Gajeel looked at her in surprise "But if it doesn't go the way you want it, I'm going through with the divorce!" everyone nodded their heads in agreement before sitting at the set table for them. A man with very long hair held up in a high ponytail walked over to them in a waiter uniform and held a towel on one arm and a wine cooler next to him.
"Good evening," he said "I am Mard Geer, I will be your waiter tonight...Good God." the last part he muttered "May I serve you both some red wine for tonight? It is on the house."
"I'll take some." Gajeel replied "You shrimp?"
"Small glass." she sighed. Mard Geer poured the glasses of wine for the two struggling love birds.
"I will be back with the appetizers... I don't get paid enough to do this job."
A moment of silence passed before Gajeel cleared his throat.
"So Shrimp..." Gajeel began uncertainly "How have you been?"
"Busy." Levy stated "Doing paperwork, cleaning the house, everything I can do right now. You?"
"Hanging in there, been staying with Salamander and Lucy. Trying to piece what's left of my life together." a minute of silence passed before he spoke again "How's Lily?"
"He's been wondering where you are. Hasn't stopped meowing since you left." Levy was telling half of the story to be honest. Yes, Lily has been crying non-stop since Levy kicked Gajeel out; but he's also been hiding all the divorce papers that Levy had to fill out in his litter box. She couldn't tell him how many times she had to go to the court house to get more papers. Mard Geer returned with a plate of appetizers for the two which they began to divulge on.
Dinner soon arrived for Gajeel and Levy and the two ate in complete silence. From the sidelines, Lucy, Natsu and the others watched as the dinner unfolded.
"This isn't good!" Mira said in a hush whisper "At this rate, they'll be in the court house deciding who gets the cat tomorrow!"
"Looks like we have to break out the big guns." Lucy muttered. She texted Gray and Juvia to get the slide show ready and before Gajeel and Levy could take the next bite, the projector screen rolled down.
"Ok," Zeref said "we have a slideshow to show you both, so we hope you enjoy." he walked away and the slide show began.
Pictures began to show throughout the entire slideshow showing their lives. From the day they met, to the moments they spent together as friends, to when they offically became a couple, when they took a vacation at Akane. All while being played to Forever by The Elemental Dragons. Then, it got to pictures that were beginning to hit home; their Wedding Day. Pictures of Levy walking down the isle in her gown, her and Gajeel saying their vows, their Wedding Day Kiss, pictures from the After Party, and when the song ended, a video of their first dance as man and wife played. Them hugging each other tightly, swaying to the beautiful music while the crowd watched in awe. Tears trickled out of Gajeel's eyes and he sniffled at the sight of this wonderful memory.
"Best day of my life was when we said 'I do'." he admitted to Levy "So what do ya say Shrimp? Want to give it another go? Shrimp?" he stopped himself when he heard the sound of uncontrollable sobbing. He looked to his right and found Levy sobbing her heart out. Tears streaming down her face and her light amount of makeup becoming messy. She cupped her hands over her mouth, trying to control her cries before she got up, ran through the kitchens and ran out the door.
"LEVY!" Gajeel screamed "WAIT!" he was just about to go after her when he heard his phone ring. Gajeel pulled his phone out, ready to send whoever is calling straight to voice mail; but the moment he saw the number, he had to answer.
"Gajeel Redfox?" a familiar voice asked.
"Speaking." Gajeel replied.
"It's Chief Sting from SaberTooth Police Department. Is your wife there?"
"She ain't and now's not a good time."
"Gajeel listen to me, this is very important and you and your wife need to know." Gajeel grunted as if to tell him to continue "You recall a certain event almost three years ago that lead to your wife almost being raped and killed correct?" Gajeel paled a little at his words.
"The fuck you bringing up this shit for?"
"It really pains me to say this; but the man responsible for that attack escaped from prison thrity minutes ago. We've been keeping our eye on him and..."
"AND?"
"He grew an odd obsession with your wife. We are not 100% sure, but we think it's from the fact she was a failed attack. Gajeel we believe he's going after your wife right now!"
"Say no more, I'm gonna handle him this time."
"Gajeel wait! He's gotta g-" Gajeel hung up on him and ran out of the place to find Levy.
Levy ran through the streets of Magnolia before making her way to an alley to calm down. Memories of watching those pictures and videos go by of the times she and Gajeel spent together really hit a nerve with her. Sighing in uncertainty, she looked up at the stars and sighed.
"What do I do?" she sighed "I still love him so much! But another part is telling me to move on." she looked at her feet and thought about the struggles they went through. Yes, the miscarriage effected her greatly; but it also...affected...him. Levy's eyes widened when she realized that the reason Gajeel didn't do much was because he wasn't sure how to approach this situation. He was just as heavily upset as she was! "I need to make things right." she got up from her spot and began to make her way back to Tataros but was suddenly stopped when she felt an arm forcefully wrap itself around her waist and a gun point at her head.
"Well well well." said a very familiar voice "If it isn't the one who got away." Levy's heart stopped at those words; it was him "You've really gotten pretty. So where's your husband? Something tells me he ain't here." he got closer to Levy and she could feel him harden down there "I think we should continue where we left off don't you?" Levy felt her blood run cold as she felt him throw her onto the ground and get on top of her. She looked in horror as she noticed scars on multiple parts of his body, he obviously had gotten into self harm since he was locked away.
"Please just let me go!" Levy screamed "PLEASE!" he pointed the gun at her temple.
"JUST SHUT UP YOU LITTLE BITCH!" he said through gritted teeth "I'll shoot if you don't remove those undies by now!" Levy began to sob at this and just when she felt her underwear being pulled down, she saw a black figure punch her attacker and slam him into the wall by her throat.
"Get your damn hands off my wife you pig!" the man's voice growled. Levy looked up and found her savior to be none other than Gajeel.
"Don't even think about getting between me and my prize!" Gajeel pressed his hand harder down on the man's throat.
"Dream on loser." Gajeel growled "That's my wife! I don't care what you do to those other girls, but the fact you had the gaul to even think about hurting my wife. You just made my shit list." Gajeel began to press harder into the man's throat until the sound of a gun shot was heard. Gajeel stumbled back and fell onto the ground, a bullet wound on his right pex was bleeding heavily.
"Gajeel!" Levy screamed. Levy was about to run over to her husband but stopped in her tracks when her attacker pointed his gun at her.
"One more move and you'll end up like him!" the attacker screamed "Now do as I say and I won't kill-" he was cut off when the sound of a gun shot was heard and a wound formed in his throat, the attacker fell to the ground, dead. Levy looked at where the bullet came from and found Gajeel holding a gun that was still smoking.
"No one touches my wife." Gajeel growled before his arm fell back to the ground and he growled in pain.
"GAJEEL!" Levy shouted. She ran over to her husband and began to press down on the wound. Levy pulled out her cellphone and began to call for an ambulance.
"Please get here quick!" she pleaded before hanging up "Are you ok Gajeel?"
"I'm more concerned about you Shrimp." he asked "Did he hurt you?"
"No, oh God Gajeel this is all my fault! I'm so sorry!"
"What you blaming yourself for Shrimp? You're my wife, it's my job to protect ya! I said it three years ago and I'm gonna say it again; don't leave my side." tears streamed down Levy's face as she watched him pass out, just in time for the police and the ambulance to arrive.
The sound of beeping of the heart machine and the scent of sanitizer filled the private hospital room Gajeel Redfox was admitted too. His wife Levy, stayed by his side as he stayed in his comatose state, refusing to let go of his hand or even leave his side. A groan escaped Gajeel's lips as he began to wake up from his wound.
"Oh God..." Gajeel groaned. Levy, who fell asleep sometime ago, woke up and a look of relief was on her face.
"Gajeel!" she gasped with relief "You're awake!" she hugged the rock star tightly and received a grunt in return.
"Too tight!" Levy let go of her husband after hugging him "Where the hell am I?"
"You're in the hospital. You were sent here after you were shot." Gajeel looked around the room and memories from last night began to play in his mind.
"Yeah." Gajeel grunted "I remember now."
"The Doctor said you should be back on your feet in a couple of days. They're going to keep you here until everything seems ok."
"What about you Shrimp? Are you alright?"
"Gajeel, I'm fine. Just a few scratches but nothing serious." a moment of silence passed before Gajeel spoke up.
"Levy, I know you're going through a lot since we lost the kid; and I do feel we can get through it together. But If you want this divorce, I'm fine with i-"
"Gajeel, I called my Divorce Lawyer last night and called off the divorce." Gajeel's eyes winded.
"Y-You what?" Gajeel asked shocked.
"After last night," Levy began "seeing that slideshow our friends made, and how you were willing to sacrifice your life for me. It made me realize I still love you; and it's a love that was meant to be. Lucy explained to me you were willing to go through the divorce just because it would make me happy. I realize I was an idiot for taking all the pain I was feeling out on you, you're going through just as much pain as I am and I was selfish to think less of you. I really am sorry Gajeel." Gajeel smiled a toothy smirk at her.
" 'ccept your apology Shrimp. I'm sorry for not really doing much support."
"Take me back?"
"You're my woman, and you will be until the end of time." he pulled Levy closer to him and shared a passionate and much needed kiss "Wait, what about the-"
"He died at the scene." Levy explained "I explained everything that happened to the police and they're not going to press charges against you. They saw it as you did it out of self defense and defending me. Plus the man was on death row so you mainly did them a favor." a smirk appeared on Gajeel's face.
"In that case." he huskily growled. He pulled her into another kiss and it became a full blown make out session. Gajeel began to slip Levy's dress off her body and she gasped at the sudden cold air.
"Gajeel! Are you sure about this?"
"Relax, its not as bad as what we did in the storage closet at Galuna Island's hotel on our Honey Moon. Besides, we need this. I may not be able to move much cause of the IV and shit; but I can't wait any longer." Levy hummed in agreement and continued kissing her husband.
"Is everyone ready to visit Gajeel?" Mira asked while leading a group of their friends through the corridors of the hospital, carrying gifts, flowers and everything they can.
"I hope big brother is ok." Wendy, Gajeel's little sister said aloud.
"He'll be fine." Lucy said "He has Levy with him, did you guys see how she refused to leave his side last night?"
"I know!" Mira squealed in delight.
"Juvia feels they'll be back together in no time!" Juvia admitted happily. They soon reached the room that had closed curtains, not showing the inside of the room. Lucy opens the door but suddenly closes it.
"Ok, I think we should come back later." Lucy admitted with a blush on her face.
"Why what's wrong?" Gray asked. He opened the door and closed it immediately. The sight of a naked Levy, riding Gajeel will forever be etched in his head.
"She's right." Gray admitted "Let them have their quality time, we'll come back in an hour or two." he scurried his friends away with him so the rock star and his wife can enjoy their time together.
The End.
