Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail.
She was still short as hell, but, instead of being able to balance on his knuckles, Levy stood just under his chin.
Her wingspan spread the length of his arms and were nearly double the length, he could see the swirling patterns of language sewn into the webbing and glowing with her palpable happiness.
"You-"
"Sorry! I didn't mean- well, I kind of did, but I didn't think-! Please don't be angry!" Gajeel swore that her tipped ears drooped into the full waves of hair with the emotion.
He reached for her, relishing in the fact that she didn't shy or slip or duck or hold his hand away. His gaze stayed on her hands and he stepped forward, stopping when his own hand came into view.
Clawed, jagged, and riddled with unyielding metal.
"I just wished and I guess I finally wished big enough." Levy stumbled forward, embarrassingly knocking her knees into his shins in her haste to grasp the hand he had started to pull away. "Don't. You won't hurt me." Gently, slowly as if she feared of scaring him away, she set his hand in the bend that met her neck to her shoulder. "I'm strong now."
"Yer big."
The fairy laughed, her wings twitching with the force of it. "Yeah."
His calloused fingertips tangled in her hair and trailed over the pointed tips of her ear, pulling a hum from her. She tilted her head as if to give him more access, encouragement. "Why?"
Her eyes fluttered back open in confusion and she peered at him. Her cheeks pinked and suddenly she was eye to eye with him in a thousand mockingbird wingbeats. "You said you'd make me big."
Gajeel laughed, nervous and unsure. "Not exactly what I meant by that, fairy."
One of her hands fell to the iron scales along his cheek bone as the other teasingly fluttered over his jaw.
"I know, but you put ideas in my head."
