"Summer has come and passed,"
She was helpless under his touch. The primal moan that rippled out of her throat only tightened the coil building up in his lower abdomen. "Ga-Aaah-jeel." He loved the way her hips bucked under him, trying to connect the even closer, but he wouldn't let her.
No, Gajeel had other plans. He wanted this to never end and hoped it never would. His fingers ghosted over her body, leaving a trail of goosebumps as they traveled across her blank canvas. His rough lips kissed down her neck line leaving small bruiser in their wake. She shivered under the pressure the love bites left in her body. Both his fingers and his lips met in the center of her chest as they played with the front release of the lacy bar Levy was wearing. The sudden coolness made the tips of her breasts erect and he happily scooped one into his mouth while cupping her other breast with his hand.
She moaned in pleasure and slight pain as the slow pace he was going made the build up in her body uncomfortable. Realizing that he was in no rush, she pushed on him and he let her roll them over, effectively switching their positions. "Pants. Off. Now." was all she said as she quickly stood to slide her panties down her legs.
With a chuckle, he followed her orders but was only able to unbuckle and unzip before Levy climbed back on him. Her mouth was on his and his hands moved from his clothing to her rounded ass and he squeezed the voluptuous cheeks as she grinded her core on his bulge. One of his hands pulled back and he brought it back with a distinct 'slap' against the soft skin.
"Aah!" Levy grinned against his skin as she shifted down and pulled out his erection, not bothering with removing any clothing. Eager to please she kissed the tip of his piercing before opening her petite lips and taking him in.
"Gyaaah! Oh fuck, Shrimp! Who taught ya that?!" Gajeel could only grip the sheets as Levy worked her wonderfully magical mouth. Using her hands as an extension for the length that she couldn't fit in her throat. Bobbing her head up and down in a steady rhythm, Levy let out a moan and with the vibrations, Gajeel could feel the coil on his lower spine burning hot, ready to spring. "Ah, Levy, I'm gonna..."
He let the sentence hang there but Levy stopped her ministrations. Not giving him any time for disappointment at her pause, she quickly climb back over him and straddled him. She balanced with a hand on his bent knee as she used her other hand to aim his shaft. As she lowered herself on him the both groaned in pleasure at the feeling of their sexes connecting. "Oh, you fucking minx."
Levy slowly shifted her hips as she accommodated to his size. "Ah, Gajeel you feel so fucking good." She started bouncing faster and harder as the fire burning in her grew brighter and brighter. Gajeel placed his hands on her hips, helping her angle them as she kept a steady pace. "Almost th-there. Aaah!"
Right before her mind was about to be blown, Levy shoots straight up in bed with the alarm going off on the corner of her nightstand. She blew out a long breath while staying undercovers, knowing that there was likely a wet mess underneath. Stupid pregnancy dreams.
"The innocent can never last"
A/N: totally gave you that scene in honor of the 100+ reviews that this fic has gotten. Thanks buddies, I hope to not disappoint with the ending chapters coming soon (but not too soon).
Reaching out, she turned off the alarm and pulled her feet off the bed. Her body still felt too sensitive. I need a cold shower. Standing up, she gathered her clothes for the days before stepping into her bathroom.
Letting the water run, she quickly took off her pajamas and stared and her swollen belly in the mirror. Small stretch marks have already begun forming on her skin but she didn't let them bother her. Levy was twenty five weeks today. She tried not to let that bother her as well when she stepped in the shower, but Gajeel had yet to wake up from his coma. He's missing everything.
"Wake me up when September ends"
After her shower, she quickly dressed and grabbed her books. Jet had invited her to a study group at campus library and her extra long shower had put her behind schedule. Opening the front door, she was surprised to see Mirajane with her hand up, mid knock. "Oh, good. You're home."
"What's up Mira?" Levy gestured for her to enter the suite as she placed her book bag down by the door. "Is everything okay?" While not unwelcome, it was unusual for Mira to visit at all, let alone first thing in the morning.
Unthwarted by the awkwardness of her host, Mira stuck her hand out and Levy looked down to see a black leather wallet. Confused, Levy took it out of her hands and mumbled a quick thanks. Mira let out a bark of laughter before explaining. "I don't know if you remember, but the bar has had a new regular lately."
"Like my father's come to pass, seven years has gone so fast"
Of course Levy remembered, she only racked him good in the balls the last time she was there, but she merely nodded so her guest could continue. "Well, he got pissed faced last night again and had to be escorted out by Bacchus and Laxus." Levy didn't know if the baby was eating her brain cells or if Mira was building up to something, but she was confused to why that involved Levy at all, so she just kept staring at the white haired woman, hoping for something to click. "The man just so happened to drop his wallet during the scuffle. A patron found it and turned it in. Normally, I would go drop it off, but as luck may have it, I'm swamped with studying for midterms."
Oh. Levy opened the slim wallet and sure enough in the slot with the clear plastic over it meant for IDs was a driver's license for Metalicana Redfox, including a standard head shot and his address. "So what do you say?" Mira snapped Levy out of her thoughts, "Can you do me solid and drop it off for me?" The taller maiden gleaned her million dollar smile when Levy slowly nodded her head yes, her brain cells slowly needing to catch up with the situation. "Great! Thanks so much Levy, I promise to make it up to ya!" She pulled in for a hug before reaching for the door and with only a quick wink and small giggle in her wake, Levy was left standing in her doorway still I awe at how much her friends love her. She felt the drops fall down her face before she even knew her eyes where tearing up. Stupid pregnancy hormones.
"Wake me up when September ends"
"Okay, Levy you can do this." The short woman had been pep talking herself some courage the whole drive there. After a quick text to Jet, apologizing for bailing last minute, she entered the address into her navigation app and ran to her car. The winter frost had melted away two weeks earlier, not long after her run in with Elder Redfox but it was still chilly enough in early March for her jacket.
As she walked up to the two story house, she had to admit that she was surprised to see such a nice neighborhood. A quick Google search on her phone led Levy to finding out that Mr. Redfox was a lawyer for criminals, and a damned good one at that. The majority of his cases were hit and runs or armed robbery, but there were a few murder charges that he got people acquitted from. He had been Jose's lawyer at one point, letting him walked from assault and drug charges. A shiver ran through Levy's body as she thought back to that horrible man. The final image she had of him, on the morgue table, did no justice to what she had been through or what he had probably put other victims through as well.
"Here comes the rain again, falling from the stars"
Steeling herself as she reached for the door bell, she put extra effort into her fingers for the pressure to be sufficient so the chimes could ring. Levy heard a loud crash come from somewhere in the house as well as a string of curse words, the latter getting louder as heavy footsteps approached the door from inside.
"What?!" The door swung open, revealing a half dressed Metalicana who was not only nursing a hangover but a few bruises as well. Levy quickly looked down from his exposed chest to her feet, a small blush caressing her face as the scene reminded her all too well to the last time she spoke with his son. "Oh its you. What d'ya want pipsqueak I don't have all day. Do you want to see Gajeel? Not like he's gonna be much company any ways." Levy could only nod her head meekly at the tall man in front of her. "Well then get your ass in here then, you're lettin all the cold air in." She quickly crossed the threshold before he could change his mind. "Fucking Makerov can't keep a secret to himself for Shit. How the hell did you get my address anyways?" He peered down at her waiting for an answer.
"Y-you dropped-ed this last night." Levy reached into her bag and pulled out his wallet.
"Fuck me." he groaned as he searched the wallet for anything missing, finding everything okay he returned to eyeing the short woman in front of him. "What ever, he's down the hall, third door on the left." After giving her a dismissive wave, "Don't be too long and don't come back after today or I'll call the cops on you for trespassing."
She waddled as fast as her growing belly allowed her too and entered the room without hesitation. The set up was similar to that of the hospital, except for the plushier chair and her stand filled with an array of sodoku and crossword puzzle books. She dropped her bag as soon as she saw him, He looks like he's just sleeping. Like he'll wake up any moment now. She knew that wasn't the case, but the mere thought of it brought hopeful tears to her eyes.
"Drenched in my pain again."
Levy took off her jacket and placed it at the foot of his bed, like old times, before letting her tears fall down. "Gajeel, wake up. Please. Wake up." She walked up to his head and grabbed his lifeless hand and squeezed it, almost painfully, trying to get his eyelids to creak open. "You won't hear from me after today so if there is anything you've been waiting to tell me, now would be a good time to do it."
She looked desperately at his serenity, getting angrier by the second. With all the tubing that was connected to him now gone, Levy was able to land a hard slap to his face, "Get your ass up Black Steel!" She was hanging on to his side railing as the tears became too much and sobs ripped from her chest and she could only crumple into the seat next to the bed. This is too much. I can't do this by myself. I need you. Gajeel. Levy wrapped her arms around her stomach and continued to weep for the man she loves. "Gajeel," the name ripped from her throat, low and raspy. She squeezed herself tighter, slowly getting lost in the despair that hung over her in a cloud of sadness and rage. Bump.
Suddenly, the tears from her eyes dried up and the sob stuck in her throat. What was that? She moved her hands to focus on the most prominent part of her belly and waited in anticipation. Levy almost believed she was hallucinating, it's too early, when she felt it again. Bump. Oh my goodness. "Are you trying to wake him up too?" She looked down at her swollen stomach as she spoke.
"Becoming who we are"
As if responding to her voice, she felt the light thump against her skin again. Bump. Holy Mavis, this is weird. The new sensation brought joyful tears to Levy's eyes. It was one thing to feel the movements and butterflies inside her belly, but to physically feel a reaction outside, made everything all too real.
Quickly she grabbed for Gajeel's hand and placed it over her belly. "C'mon baby." she muttered through gritted teeth, "Kick him" Levy felt the kick from the inside and pushed down on Gajeel's palm so he could feel it too. Bump. Her heart was stuck in her throat as she waited for any kind of reaction from him.
Too focused on the man in front of her, she failed to notice the older man slip back into the room. "Try again baby" She whispered urgently, "try harder." BUMP. Levy giggled at the sensation, you must have flipped completely. Looking expectantly at the slumbering man, her hazel eyes once more filled up with tears once she noticed that there wasn't a change in Gajeel's condition. "You did your best." She rubbed her stomach gently as the bumps settled down back into soft butterflies and she sat back into the chair still unaware of the guest she had in the room.
"As my memory rests, but never forgets what I lost"
"If you don't mind," a soft, cold voice startled Levy out of her thoughts, "May I ask how far along you are?"
The small woman turned to stare at the frightening crimson eyes that were focused on her. "Just hit twenty five weeks." She responded dully. It was supposed to be a huge milestone in her pregnancy; a month ago, she was gonna find out the sex of her baby, but she told the tech working the machine to not tell her. Levy wanted Gajeel to be there when she found out so she had the dvd tucked into her purse from the session, just waiting for him to wake up so they can watch it.
She missed the elder Redfox's grim nod before he spoke, "Is it his?" Levy didn't even bother answering, if you have to ask, you'll never believe it is. Instead she just glared at his question. Metalicana took her scowl as a yes and continued, "Does he know?" Silence as she turned back to face Gajeel. "No, I suppose he doesn't." He eyes the short woman to see if he could get a reaction out of her. "Its not like he would step up and be a good father anyways. Boy doesn't know how to care for anyone but himself and look where that's gotten him." He gestured towards the bed as he spoke those last words.
Levy snapped, "And how is that any of your business Mr. Redfox?" She stood up to face him completely, unthwarted by their height difference, "All I know about you is that you're the asshole that beat his son into perfection. Raising him to be as cold and closed hearted as you are. It took you a whole month to visit your comatose son in the hospital. Four weeks for your only son. So excuse me if I keep my personal choices as a parent private." She grabbed her coat and picked up her forgotten bag before storming out of the room.
Metalicana watched her walk out of the room, ensuring the door was closed before returning back to face his only child. "You can open your eyes now. I know you're awake, Gajeel." A small smirk appeared on the otherwise serene face as the eyelids flew open, revealing two crimson eyes filled with a mixture of guilt and anger as they stared back into the older Redfox's red eyes.
