Family
Sorry this took awhile to get out, had a few family emergencies without I give you chapter twelve of family.
Disclaimer- as always I don't own fairy tail or its characters just crave and the plot are mine.
It's been a month since Lucy was reunited with her uncle, she couldn't be happier. Crave got along very well with everyone in her fairy tail family. Romeo, Wendy and asuka really loved him just like they loved her.
Lucy was happy to have him back in her life. Although she was happy she was also confused her mind kept going back to that kiss she shared with laxus. Even though she told herself it wouldn't happen again she found herself wanting to kiss him again. There was no denying that the lightning dragon slayer was attractive however he was a playboy who's to say laxus wouldn't throw her aside once he got what wanted from, Lucy couldn't take that kind of heartache.
"Why such a long face lu-chan" asked levy.
"It's nothing levy, here's the chapter I promised" Lucy handed the bundle of papers to her friend who squealed in excitement causing Lucy to laugh.
Laxus POV
I'm sitting in my office going over some paperwork although my mind is thinking of ways to tell Lucy about how I feel about her.
I've faced a wizard saint and dragons but they never made me as nervous as I am around her. Suddenly I hear an explosion from downstairs I come out of my office to see that we're being attacked I automatically jump down to help my family.
Regular POV
Everyone was minding their own business, natsu and grey are fighting as usual. Erza enjoying a piece of strawberry cake, Lucy and levy going over Lucy's story when suddenly the guilds doors were blown off catching everyone's attention spotting dark mage storming in attacking.
"Alright I'm all fired up" natsu yelled out as he clobbered several of the enemy mages and knocking them out.
Levy was beside jet, droy, gajeel and pantherlily.
Mira with her siblings, everyone else was spread out; Lucy had managed to get beside her uncle and asuka to shield them however she was running low on magic.
She was so caught in her fight that she didn't notice the spear coming at her until it was too late. At the last second someone had jumped in front of her to shield her, it was none other than crave upon realizing this she screamed NOOOOOO!
Laxus hearing the scream looked over to see Lucy shaking her uncle she was crying. He was officially pissed someone had made his girl cry.
Grabbing warren and telepathically gave orders, Wendy go heal crave, juvia create puddles under the dark mages with a trail coming towards me.
"Right" both girls do as laxus asked once he saw the trail he ordered everyone to fall back.
"You assholes made a big mistake attacking my guild, LIGHTNING FIST!" laxus punches the water electrocuting the enemy mages making them scream in pain.
"Freed, bickslow, elfman and gray gather these idiots and put up a rune barrier, erza call the rune knights, Mira call gramps everyone else take care of the injured.
Going over to Wendy "how is he?" kneeling down next to crave.
"I've healed his wound but I think there was poison on whatever caused his injury, I think we need porlyusica here" Wendy answered looking up at her brother.
Nodding "I'll send jet to get her, is he good to be moved to the infirmary?"
Getting a nod laxus called warren and max to get crave upstairs and had jet to get the old healer.
During all this Lucy hadn't moved even when happy tried to get her attention for him and lily to dress her wounds. "Come on Lucy snap out of it we need to bandage your wounds." Happy called out.
"Happy, lily you two go see if asuka's alright she's probably frightened" laxus told him still kneeling.
"But Lucy need her wounds taken care of" happy told the lightning slayer.
I'll take care of it just go see if asuka's okay" laxus told him taking the first aid kit.
"Alright" happy gives him the kit before he and lily go find the little girl.
"Happy go ahead and take her up to my office, I just got her some coloring stuff that should keep her occupied until the chaos is over." Laxus told him.
"Aye sir" happy replied as he left to go do his task with lily following him.
Looking toward the celestial mage, it tore at his heart and pissed him off to see her like this.
Lucy its laxus I'm going to bandage your wounds alright let me know if anything hurts" laxus told her setting to work.
"It's my fault" Lucy whispered if it weren't for laxus enhanced hearing he would've missed it.
"Bullshit it is Blondie" laxus told her.
"If I had seen the spear coming I could have sent it somewhere else then my uncle wouldn't be hurt" Lucy replied with tears in her eyes.
"Lucy look at me" laxus put his hands on her cheeks making her look him in the eyes. "None of this is your fault; crave chose to block you from the weapon because he didn't want you to be the one getting hurt. He shielded you because you are his little sister's daughter and wants you to be always be happy, healthy and safe. He told me he would move heaven and hell to protect you because you are his niece. It didn't matter to him if he got hurt as long as you're alright in the end because he loves you." Laxus told her.
Lucy starts crying again before launching herself at him clutching his shirt and hiding her face in his chest. Laxus just hugged her back "come on Blondie let's bandage you and get you upstairs to see your uncle." Laxus told her.
"Alright and your blonde to genius" Lucy replied with a watery smile making laxus smile back before setting to work.
15 minutes later
Both blonde mages walk into the infirmary seeing both Wendy and porlyusica trying to flush out the poison.
"How is he?" Laxus asked as he and Lucy walked closer.
Well we've flushed the poison out from his body however he's fallen into a coma" answered porlyusica.
Lucy kneeled beside the bed and took craves hand in her own. "You're an idiot" she whispered setting her forehead against his hand shedding a few tears with laxus watching her.
Later that night
Lucy has not moved from her uncle's side having fallen asleep, laxus had stayed with them the entire time.
"Laxus" the sound of his name he turned toward his grandfather.
"I came as soon as I could, any change?" Makarov asked walking over to his grandson.
"No, porlyusica said he slipped into a coma, Lucy hasn't moved from his side since she came in this afternoon." Laxus answered.
"Then she needs to go home" the elder dreyar said.
"She won't want to leave" laxus said looking towards the younger blonde.
"Then make her, she needs rest and she won't be getting it here." Makarov said looking at the girl. "Have someone stay with crave so she won't worry, but she needs to go home."
"Yeah your right gramps, I'll go talk to freed" laxus left the room to find his friend.
They came back a moment later laxus goes over to Lucy and wakes her up.
"Lucy wake up I'm going to take you home" laxus told her when she opened her eyes.
"I'm not leaving" Lucy told the older blonde mage.
"I asked freed to stay and watch over him, you need to go home and rest freed will contact us if anything changes." Laxus told her.
Alright" Lucy answered then standing up, "I'll see you tomorrow uncle crave" Lucy then kisses her uncles cheek and leaves with laxus following her.
Once outside laxus scooped Lucy up bridal style just like when they went on that job together makes Lucy blush and struggle. "Laxus put me down I can walk." Lucy tried getting out of his arms.
"Chill out Blondie" laxus held on tighter so she wouldn't fall.
Giving up Lucy settles down, upon reaching her apartment laxus noticed she had fallen asleep again not wanting to wake her up. He takes her house key and unlocked the door.
Laying her down on the bed, removing her shoes he covers her up. He moved over to the couch. There was no way he was going to leave her alone.
Before he got to far laxus felt a tug on his hand. Looking back to see Lucy's eyes open half way.
"Don't leave" she whispers squeezing his hand tighter.
"I'm not going anywhere, I'm just going to the couch" he tells her squeezing her hand back.
Shaking her head "no, here" she moves over for laxus to lie down next to her. Laxus hesitates for a moment before shrugging off his coat and shirt and taking his shoes off he climbs in next to her. Lucy cuddles into him and once again falls asleep.
Laxus lays there he wraps his arms around her waist bringing her closer to him, kissing her forehead whispering "I love you Lucy" before asleep himself.
