The energy in the room was electric. From her room window, Lucy could see the inky purple sky as she pulled Gajeel towards the bed. Every touch, kiss, and caress had been leading up to this and Lucy was strangely nervous. Her heart was hammering as Gajeel reached around her to unclasp her bra, his eyes never leaving hers. When the garment was on the floor, Gajeel slowly eased Lucy onto the mattress, standing between her spread legs. He could hear her heartbeat and he noticed her widened eyes.
"We can take it slow, Bunny," he said carefully. "We don't have to do anything tonight, if you don't want to. We can just cuddle."
Lucy stood up in shock, her chest now pressed against Gajeel's. "What?! No! Why? Do you not want to? I want to!"
"Your heart is beating a million miles a minute, baby girl. And you look like a deer caught in headlights."
Lucy sat back down with a sigh. "I'm just nervous. There's been such a buildup and so much anticipation. This entire week of foreplay just got very real, and I want it to be good for you." She looped her arms around Gajeel's waist, pulling him close as she rested her forehead against his toned abdomen.
"Are you insane? Have you seen how hot we are, Bunny? Both individually and together? There's no way us having sex will be anything short of spec-fucking-tacular. Relax, babe," Gajeel chuckled, gently stroking her hair.
With a relieved sigh, Lucy placed an open kiss against Gajeel's abs. When the man sharply drew in a breath, Lucy kissed him again, this time lightly sucking the skin into her mouth. Same reaction, but with an added groan. Lucy gripped Gajeel's hips, kissing her way down his abs to the cut V on which his pants hung. As she sucked on the thin skin right above his waistband, her fingers undid the fastenings on his leather pants, before she pushed them down, over his toned ass and to his knees. She let her hands run over his muscular butt, down along his thighs, and back up to gently grip him already semi-hard dick. Gajeel hurriedly kicked his pants off before resuming his place between Lucy's legs.
"Strangely, I'm not surprised to see a dick piercing," Lucy said as she trailed her hand up and down his massive length. Then, ever so slowly, she bent down and kissed the metal ring that adorned his cock.
"Fuck," Gajeel hissed, inadvertently bucking his hips.
Lucy looked up at him and smirked before opening her mouth and sucking in the head of his dick. She swirled her tongue along the slit, humming when Gajeel groaned in satisfaction.
Gajeel gently wove his hands into her hair, holding the blonde locks away from her face.
With a gasp, Lucy pulled her mouth off Gajeel's cock. She looked up at him, eyes hooded with lust.
"I won't break, Gaj," she whispered sultrily.
Gajeel looked at her inquisitively, trying to decipher what she meant. When the gears finally clicked into place, his eyes widened.
"Really, Bunny?"
"You said you weren't gonna hold back. So don't," she said, her voice posing a challenge.
In an instant, Gajeel had his hand on her throat, and his mouth on hers. He kissed her roughly, biting her lip and along her jaw as his free hand massaged her breast. He pinched her nipple and rolled it between his fingers. When Lucy moaned, Gajeel swallowed the sound, growling in satisfaction. He tugged Lucy to her feet before leading her to a wall.
"I recall something about slamming my cock into you against a wall?" Gajeel murmured into Lucy's ear. He had his leg between Lucy's, with his thigh pressed into her core. Lucy began grinding herself against him, desperate for some release.
"Please, Gajeel," she begged.
"Mm, not yet," he grinned wickedly before reaching under Lucy's skirt to yank her panties off. The smell of Lucy's arousal permeated the air, strong enough for even Lucy's nose to catch it. Gajeel took in a shaky inhale, his eyes fluttering shut at the intoxicating scent.
"It drives me crazy to know I did that to you, babe," he whispered.
"I want you, Gajeel. God, I think I'm losing my mind. I need you. Please, I just need you," Lucy begged again.
Gajeel growled, kissing her deeply. "Fuck, you're perfect."
He snaked his hand down her body, stopping to massage her tits before trailing down her soft, flat stomach and past her skirt. His fingers slipped under the fabric and ran up her thigh, delicately grazing the sensitive skin. Lucy began squirming in anticipation, trying to will Gajeel's fingers to make their way to her wet centre.
Agonisingly slowly, Gajeel ran his fingers up her legs. Warmth emanated from her and Gajeel had to try very hard to slow down. This moment was a long time coming for the both of them and he wanted her to really savour it. Lucy was watching him intently, breathing hard as he stroked her thighs.
"Please," she rasped again.
Gajeel leaned forward to kiss her. It was a soft, delicate kiss, filled with promises of lust and affection. Then, with his forehead resting against hers, Gajeel dipped his fingers into her dripping slit. Lucy gasped and bucked her hips, silently asking for more, but Gajeel continued to just barely circle her clit. Lucy's fingers tightened in Gajeel's hair and she began panting as desire mounted within her. As her breath grew more ragged, Gajeel increased his speed, rubbing her sensitive bud as the coil in her stomach began to tighten.
"Oh my god," Lucy breathed, pressing her lips to Gajeel's. She mewled into his mouth, gasping when he slid two fingers into her. "Yes yes yes," Lucy moaned, screwing her eyes shut. She lifted a leg and Gajeel quickly caught it in the crook of his arm, opening her up to him. As he continued to finger fuck her, he latched onto her neck, biting and sucking at the thin skin.
"If you leave a mark, I'll kill you," Lucy threatened in between moans.
"Too late, Bunny girl," Gajeel smirked, watching a purple spot blossom where his teeth had just been.
"Ugh, how am I going to- oh my god!- explain it to Natsu?" Lucy groaned as Gajeel pushed in a third finger.
"Baby, can you do me a favour and stop thinking about Natsu while I finger you? It's kinda killing the mood," Gajeel complained.
Lucy's cheeks flushed a bright red. She clamped her lips shut and nodded before tipping her head back against the wall, allowing every ripple of pleasure to course through her.
Gajeel dragged his lips down her throat and to her nipple, where he sucked on the pale pink nub. He gently bit at her sensitive skin, smirking to himself when she yelped out a moan. He pumped his fingers in and out of her rapidly, feeling her wetness drip down into his palm. Lucy's head dropped onto his shoulder, whimpering as her impending orgasm began building somewhere in her stomach. Her fingers tightened around Gajeel's shoulders, nails biting into the skin.
He released her nipple from his mouth, righting himself to watch her unravel at his touch. When he saw how close she was, he pressed his thumb into her clit. With a scream, Lucy's orgasm tore through her, and the single leg holding her up buckled. She fell against Gajeel, moaning as he drew her climax out. Muscles she didn't even realise she was holding tense relaxed as ecstasy washed over her and Lucy suddenly felt euphoric. Her body was spent as she leaned on Gajeel. He pulled her fingers out of her, gently caressed her flushed and sensitive skin, and peppered her with kisses wherever his lips could reach.
"You good?" he asked the still limp and immobile girl.
"So good," came the slow, raspy response.
"Need a break?" Gajeel asked, trying desperately to hide the humour in his voice. He didn't know why but it made him ridiculously happy to know he did that to her. Her eyes were glazed over and she had a serene, satisfied smile on her face. Her hair was mussed, cheeks pink, and lips swollen, and she had never looked more beautiful.
"No, I don't," Lucy replied happily in answer to his question. Then, with surprising vigour, given her supine state not two seconds ago, Lucy jumped up into Gajeel's arms, wrapping her legs around his waist. He caught her under her butt, supporting her as she reached between the two of them to stroke his length. Then, lifting herself marginally, Lucy aligned him to her entrance and sank down. The couple gasped at the sensation. Gajeel filled her up so fully, his cock hitting every sensitive spot within her, and she wrapped around him so tightly, gripping him like a vice.
Bracing herself on Gajeel's shoulders, Lucy began lifting herself, feeling him ease out of her, before dropping back down until he was buried to the hilt inside her. Her brown eyes never left his deep red ones, except for the moments when the ring on his cock hit a spot inside her just right. When that happened, Lucy's eyes would shut and her head would roll back as pleasure shivered up through her spine. Her back was against the wall, supporting her as Gajeel began snapping his hips, pushing himself into her with low grunts and growls.
Suddenly, wordlessly, Gajeel pulled Lucy off the wall, and at record speed, strode to the bed where he flung her onto the mattress.
"Damn, Lucy," he whispered appreciatively, watching the shapely blonde stretch out. "Get that fucking skirt off," Gajeel bit out. Before Lucy could even reach for the waistband, Gajeel's fingers were at the hem and he yanked the skirt off her endless legs. Mercifully, Gajeel didn't destroy the skirt, though Lucy had no time to celebrate that. Instantly, Gajeel was on top of her, his body perfectly aligned above her own.
Lucy reached up to stroke his face, trailing down his throat, over his shoulder, and into his hair. Gripping the back of his, Lucy pulled Gajeel down until their lips met. She let her legs spread, allowing Gajeel to comfortably position himself between her thighs, and with their mouths still fused, he drove into her. Gajeel left Lucy's lips, pushing himself up to watch her face contort in pleasure as he slammed into her.
"God, you're so fucking beautiful, Bunny girl," Gajeel growled.
"Don't stop, Gaj. Please don't stop," Lucy breathed, arching her back to raise her hips. She met his thrusts with swivels of her own. One hand gripped Gajeel's arm while the other circled her clit.
"Let me take care of that, babe," Gajeel whispered, turning Lucy onto her side. He lay down behind her, lifting her leg and propping it on his thigh. Then, with one hand under Lucy's body, fondling her tit, and the other over her waist and rubbing her nub, Gajeel slid back into her. As his thrusts grew faster and deeper, Lucy's moans got louder, until she stuffed the corner of a pillow into her mouth, lest their guildmates hear her. She mewled wantonly into the pillow, pushing her hips back into Gajeel's, trying to feel him as deeply as possibly.
"More more more," she gasped, momentarily pulling the pillow out of her mouth. Gajeel smirked, kissing her lightly on the shoulder before pulling out almost all the way and then slamming back in. He gyrated his hips, allowing Lucy to feel every inch of his massive cock and the pretty ring that drove her crazy. Lucy's eyes rolled back in her head and she knew it was a matter of seconds before a second, even more powerful orgasm, hit her.
"I'm so close," she managed to gasp out, encouraging Gajeel to pick up his pace. Lucy thanked every god that she could think of for his Dragon Slayer levels of extreme stamina as he pumped into her at a brutal, toe-curling pace. His lips found her throat and he began grazing his teeth over her sensitive skin.
"Think you can wait for me?" he asked in her ear, panting as his climax rapidly approached too.
Unable to speak, Lucy merely nodded, willing her body to teeter on the precipice for just a moment longer. Her legs had begun to spasm, her body craving its release, but the Celestial Mage held on, biting down on the pillow.
"Okay, baby, cum with me," Gajeel groaned. With a cry of relief, Lucy let herself go. Gajeel's name left her lips in a continuous stream as waves of pleasure crashed over her. Her mind went numb and vision went black at the intensity of her orgasm. She could feel her walls convulse, milking every drop of warm seed that was shooting into her. Behind her, Gajeel was gasping, his thighs weak from his climactic euphoria.
As they came off their high, Lucy rolled until her head was on Gajeel's chest and his arms were around her. Both bodies were slicked in a thin sheen of sweat and the room was filled with the soft sounds of heavy breathing. Neither spoke for several minutes, revelling in their orgasmic bliss.
"Fucking hell," Gajeel finally whispered, running a hand through his hair to push it off his damp forehead.
Lucy laughed softly. "Fucking hell is right. Almost seems worth the wait," she said, kissing his chest.
Gajeel reached for her face, tipping her chin up with one thumb. "You're beautiful, Lucy. And so amazing. And I'd wait another week just to be able to do that with you again," he murmured.
A pink blush rose to Lucy's cheeks, and she turned her face into Gajeel's chest. With a soft "tut", Gajeel brought her face back to meet his.
"I'm serious. Amazing," he grinned, craning his neck forward. Lucy smiled before stretching up and pressing her lips to his.
Then, cuddling back against Gajeel, Lucy sighed. "Might get complicated when we get back to Magnolia," she whispered, almost to herself.
"Can't complicate what no one knows about," Gajeel said with a slight shrug. Lucy made a non-committal sound of agreement as she felt her eyes start to close.
"I really liked this, Gajeel," she muttered, half-asleep. "I really like you." And with that, the exertion of the week and the pleasure of the last hour finally hit her. Warm and cozy in Gajeel's arms, sleep gently took Lucy.
The sun was still low in the sky when Lucy began stirring. She stretched her limbs, feeling her sore muscles scream momentarily before sweet relief flooded them. Before she opened her eyes, she patted around the bed, searching for the reason her muscles were this sore. When all she found was a cool pillow and an empty bed, her eyes flew open.
"Gajeel?" she called. When she got no response, she called again, this time louder. Slipping out of bed, Lucy padded to the bathroom, only to find it empty. No sign of Gajeel anywhere. A strange sense of sorrow, disappointment, and confusion began trickling into her mind. Lucy was contemplating going and banging on his door when she noticed a small piece of paper folded on her nightstand that definitely hadn't been there earlier. She leapt at the note, smoothening it open to read its contents.
Morning Bunny,
Coffee at 8?
Lucy quickly checked the clock in her room, panicking when she realised she had barely thirty minutes until her breakfast date. She scrambled into the shower, dragging a comb through her wet hair, before wrestling herself into the first skirt and top she pulled out. After a few quick swipes of makeup and a pretty necklace clasped at her throat, Lucy bolted out of her room with a minute or so to spare. She flung the inn door open, ready to run to the nearest little cafe when she nearly bowled over a very stunned Gajeel and the two coffees he was holding.
"What're you doing here?" he asked in shock.
"Your note… Coffee… Eight…" Lucy panted, trying to regain her breath.
"Yeah. It's eight, and I was bringing you coffee, so… What're you doing here?"
"Wait wait. You were bringing me coffee? So I didn't have to rush out of bed?" Lucy demanded, her tone now deathly serious.
Gajeel looked at her as if she was daft.
"Damn it, Gajeel, why was your note so vague?" Lucy cried, snatching the coffee out of his hand.
"I'm… Sorry? I- I don't know what's happening right now…" he stuttered.
"What's happening is I'm wearing makeup at eight in the morning because I thought we had a breakfast date," Lucy groaned. She walked to a nearby bench and plopped down.
"Wouldn't you want to have breakfast with your friends? I assumed we could get some alone time before that, hence bringing the coffee to your room," Gajeel explained, sitting down next to her.
Lucy suddenly felt a pull of affection for Gajeel and how thoughtful he was trying to be, even if it didn't fully translate. She gently cupped his face and was about to lean in for a kiss when he pulled back.
"Your friends are almost here," he bit out. "I can smell the damn fire breather."
Lucy quickly dropped her hand, wrapping it around the warm cup instead. In the distance she began hearing her name being yelled.
"-cy! Lucy! Where are you?" Happy's high voice came ringing through as he flew through the inn doors. "Lu- Oh! There you are, Lucy! I found her, Natsu!"
Within a second, Natsu came barreling out onto the street. "Luce! There ya are! Got a little worried when you didn't answer your door."
"You must've just missed me," Lucy answered with an awkward laugh.
"Good, you have your coffee. Are we ready to get started on our day? Many houses to cover," Erza immediately began instructing as she followed Natsu out.
"Work?! Already?! But what about breakfast, Erza?!" Natsu cried, extremely affronted.
"Gotta agree with the human blowtorch. We need to eat, Erza," Gray chimed in, trying to reason with the redheaded drill sergeant.
"Fine. You all get half an hour to eat, and then we need to cover the rest of the town before the feast tonight. Your half an hour has already started, so I'd get moving if I were you," Erza said, beginning to walk away.
"Thirty minutes?! Fuck! Run, Gray!" Natsu yelled, breaking out into a sprint. Gray shot a pleading look at Erza, and when he received no sympathy, tore off behind Natsu. Happy, yelling for the two mages to wait, flew off after them.
Lucy watched her friends get up to their antics and she shook her head with a rueful smile, until she remembered the alone time that she and Gajeel were supposed to have.
"I'm sorry," she said, looking at him apologetically. "I wish we had that alone time."
"It's fine. Guess I was asking for too much," Gajeel didn't look irritated, but something about his tone told Lucy he was ready to punch each of her friends.
"Maybe tonight…?" She suggested.
"Yeah. Maybe." Gajeel didn't look at Lucy as he began walking away, forcing her to jog after him, all the while feeling confused and slightly hurt by the entire encounter.
A/N: Finally some smut! I don't think it's ever taken me this long to get to sex! Phew, feeling a little bit of relief right now! And of course, gotta sprinkle in some more drama too! I hope this was worth the wait and I'd love to know what you thought!
