One of my first anime pairings started with the boy threatening to kill the girl because she knows too much. He never does because later it means he is just trying to protect her but that moment always stuck with me. Sadly they never get together but their relationship is one that should be envied. Laugh if you must but thank you, Gundam Wing!
Threat
Levy tried to see the best in him, to treat him kindly despite the pain he inflicted on her and the guild. She tries to forgive him and be the stronger one by moving past the pain. What better way than to offer him an official invitation to some of the best guilds outside Fairy Tail? She had gotten permission from the master and out of favor to him, some have agreed to take in the rogue Dragon Slayer if it meant boosting their power.
She had offered the rather thin envelope with a watery but hopeful smile when she found him released from the Council Knights headquarters. The man glared at her, probably hoping to use intimidation to thwart her "peace" offering. But she would not be swayed, not matter how hard her body wants to tremble in fear.
"This is for you," Levy murmurs, watching him gruffly snatch it from her hand….only to rip it into pieces.
Her eyes widen in shock. All her hard work, all her hopes of bridging this gap with him, up in smoke!
Tears fill her vision and it doesn't take long for a tear to trail down her cheek. With it fall her confusion and pain.
"Why?" she whispers, looking down at the fluttering remnants of the envelope.
A thick, calloused finger appears out of the corner of her eye and drags with it a tear. Just as soon as it touches his skin, he flings the salty droplet away.
Her brown eyes fly to meet his red ones, but she can't read them.
Only his mouth as he says "I'll kill you."
As the threat rings in her ears, he walks away with hunched shoulders. She never sees him biting his lip, nor the clenching of his hands that are stuffed into his pants pockets.
He must not hurt another innocent. No matter what, she must stay away from him. For her own good, she must think him the devil instead of a mutt worth saving. It is better for them both if she just stops caring. At least for now that is what he will tell himself. One day she will understand he is just protecting her.
Until the next one guys!
