Chapter 37: The Ways That I Love You

Laxus' POV

April 21st X794

Fairy Tail Guild Hall

Lightening crackled threateningly against his skin, sending small tingles up and down his body and around to his team mates who sat in a depressed slump against the table where they sat.

The lightening dragon slayer had the urge to send all of his magical energy to the youngest takeover mage, frying her in the process, but he also knew he would get a severe punishment if he did that, and so he resisted.

Although, he had to admit he'd laughed quite loudly when Evergreen had smacked her upside the head.

Laxus was beyond pissed at the situation at hand, he couldn't fathom how someone could be so cruel, but then again he'd almost fried Lucy when he'd first met her, but even if this wasn't entirely different from what he did, he still had a right to be pissed...right?

Of course he did, Lucy was his little sister, and she would be forever, she had welcomed him into the guild with open arms, her and Erza, he hadn't expected anyone to welcome him back so quickly, well, besides his team anyways, but she'd been there, welcoming him with open arms, and telling him that she forgave them all, she wasn't one to hold grudges and she forgave people easily, he liked that about her, he was thankful for her, his little sister.

In fact it was as if she was everyone's little sister, their light, but Lisanna had taken their light away from them, she'd hatched an elaborate scheme and they had no chance of stopping the outcome, the little brat of a takeover mage had stolen something precious from everyone in the Fairy Tail family.

He looked down from the balcony, eyes catching the pathetic sight of the takeover mage and he frowned in disgust, he just couldn't wrap his head around why she had done what she did, he knew she had to have done this horrible thing out of jealousy, but what was she jealous of? Lucy had done nothing wrong, she'd even quite her own team for a few months to let Lisanna catch up with them! During that time away from her team Lucy had gone on quite a few missions with the Thunder God Tribe, and they had all grown very fond of the celestial mage, their little sister.

Laxus' mind was warped with confusion at this entire event. He willed his eyes away from the deteriorating mage and to the members of Lucy's old team, they were waiting for his grandfather to come down so they could leave to wherever it was that Lucy was currently staying, or permanently staying...He wasn't one to get emotional, but thinking of his sister never coming back made his eyes sting with many unwashed tears, he willed them not to fall and like always, they never did.

Lucy's old team was nervous, their anxiety, their fears were so thick you could almost taste it, when his time came to see the blonde he knew he would be radiating the same emotions, this had to be a big step for Lucy, he could understand her being so afraid to see them, who would want to see the people who constantly star in her nightmares? Laxus also knew that Lucy would get over her fear of her old team, she was to forgiving to let them be depressed the way they were, she was to kind to watch as they shed their tears, but he also knew Lucy was going to have a hard time with this hill.

When he'd first come out of the damn curse he'd wanted to slay the youngest takeover mage, but he held himself back, instead he had gone on a rather long and destructive mission, it had taken some of his anger away, but not all of it, the more he focused his sights on the girl the more he wanted to leap off of the balcony and shock her til she couldn't scream, cruel he knows, but he wasn't known for his kindness either.

He had finally found someone to protect -in a sister/brother way- and Lisanna had taken that away from him, he'd never been exactly close to anyone before, his team, yeah a little, but with Lucy it was different, he felt that he needed to protect her, that it was his life goal to not let harm come her way, and look at what happened, he'd been -albeit unknowingly- a part of her depression, her fear, and Laxus didn't know if he'd ever get the blonde to become close with him again, the thought truly terrified him.

Laxus watched as his small grandfather walked down the stairs to the first floor, his eyes holding a semi serious gaze as he walked to Lucy's old team, he spoke a few words in a serious tone before ushering them all outside and to the train station, Laxus noted the looks of, hope flash across the mages eyes, but they still held fear, they turned and silently left the guild hall, heading for who knows where.

The blonde man sighed once more, going back to sit beside his team, a mug of beer in hand as he pulled his sound pods over his ears, the music calming his anger and frustration, he took a gulp of the foul tasting liquid before shutting his eyes and leaning back, ignoring the reality of the world around him, if only for a little while.

Sting's POV

Oak Town, Fiore

April 21st X794

He sat in bed, it was morning and he was the first one up, usually it would have been Lucy who was up first, but they'd had a long night -if you know what he means- he arched his back in a stretch, letting a moan of delight escape his lips as he lowered himself back onto the soft warm bed, he really wasn't ready to get up yet, but they had a long day ahead of them.

Makarov and Lucy's old team were coming to visit, he was nervous about this visit, sure Lucy had done well with the two blue haired mages of her old guild, but this was different, her team had done so many horrible things to her, he wasn't saying the others weren't as bad, but this group of people knew her inside and out.

The two blondes knew it had been a curse, but it would never change the fact that her closest friends treated her that way, she would never be able to forget what they had done, she may be able to forgive them, because well, it's Lucy and she has a heart bigger then the whole of Sabertooth and Fairy Tail combined, her ability to forgive others was one of the many things Sting loved about her.

He let his eyes drift over to his fiance's sleeping form, she was laying on her back, her belly bulging out because of their baby, he leaned over out of instinct and kissed her stomach gently, only to feel a kick in return, he laughed gently, making sure not to wake Lucy up and placed a hand on her stomach in favor of his head, their baby girl was definitely most hyper in the mornings and it surprised Sting how Lucy could even sleep through the kicks.

Sting brought his eyes up to Lucy's sleeping face and smiled softly, her blonde hair was shining and splayed around her, her head facing the wall that she slept next to -Sting wouldn't let her sleep on the outside of the bed in fear of her falling off- her lips parted slightly as she breathed in and out softly, one arm was thrown over the top of her head while the other was on her stomach, she was beautiful to him, absolutely stunning, he believed Lucy only got prettier as the days went by.

The covers were scrunched around her waist so the top half of her bare body was out in the open for him to gaze upon, the only item she had on was her bra because she absolutely refused to let him see what she had deemed the 'ugly monster boobies' he chuckled as he remembered the fit she had when her breast started changing because of the pregnancy, her comically crying over loosing her beautiful breasts, he had to hold in his laughter when she'd told him this, telling her that they would be beautiful no matter what, but she still refused, much to his dismay.

Her belly was also out for him to see, it was like a globe, a beautiful globe, she had a few stretch marks here and there, but nothing to bad, but he loved them, he would never let her think she wasn't beautiful because of her 'weird boobs' or her stretch marks, in fact she was even more stunning because of them, the sheets were bunched up around her nether regions so he couldn't see that part of her, but her long legs stretched for what seemed to be a mile out of the white sheets, Sting had always loved her legs, and now that she was walking again and gaining her muscle back they were even more sexy then before.

If fact everything about her was sexy, even the odd little things she did, like wrinkling her nose when she saw something cute, even what Rufus and Rogue dubbed as an annoying habit of her folding the pages of books when she was reading, just so she had something in her hands to mess with, the two other boys hated that she did that, said something about it ruining the book, but Sting found it adorable, he especially loved the way she would kiss his nose when they were getting intimate together, right before he'd fill her, she'd always kiss his nose when he pushed inside, Sting absolutely loved that, he loved the way her nails dug into his back when he hit her in the right spot -yes, that spot- they way she bit his bottom lip, the way she bit his collarbone when she rode on top, Sting was mesmerized by the whole of her, everything she did was, he couldn't find the right word to describe it...In bed it was like he was on a different planet, the way the two rolled around in pure bliss, he'd never experienced anything like it before, sex with Lucy was...like ecstasy, he couldn't describe it.

He was pulled from his thoughts when a small groan came from his beloved fiance, she scrunched up her nose a small bit before hiding her face underneath a pillow, as the sunlight finally found its way into the bedroom, he smiled as the sun hit her, it made her glow more than she was already, God this girl was beautiful.

Sting was so happy and thankful that he was going to be able to spend the rest of his life with Lucy.
