Okay this is a one shot there will be no other chapters.
I was watching the movie series that is mentioned in this story and got this idea.
So I decided to actually write it...
Okay the line breaks I think are self explanatory once you start reading it but again I don't know if most people can follow my logic and how my mind works...
And for the record YES I'm totally obsessed with these movies I have everything that has ever come out related to the movies.
Soundtracks, jewelry, T-shirts, calendars, puzzles, everything possible...
But Any way I do NOT own Fairy Tail or it's characters
Now on with the story
Laxus POV
I never thought I could fall in love if I was being honest. I was Laxus Dreyar, I was a new girl every night kind of guy. But love? No it wasn't for me, or so that is what I thought. But low and behold I was wrong. Ever since she first showed up in the guild I was aware of her. Something called to me. I kept my distance due to her team mates. They can be intense if you know what I mean. I'd watch her from the 2nd floor, my team thought I had lost my mind. They didn't know what was wrong with me, hell, I didn't know what was wrong with me.
"Daddy? Mommy said no cursing when telling stories..." I heard my son say to me. I rolled my eyes. "Mommy also said it's not nice to roll your eyes at someone..." My son said.
"Want to hear the rest of the story or not? Your sisters are sitting here quietly listening..." I said with a raised eyebrow.
He huffed. "Fine... But if mommy knew!" I gave him a look that made him snap his mouth closed.
Anyway where was I, oh yes, my team was down and out right confused. But it wasn't until one day I was caught staring at your mom that my team noticed. Bicks of course had to be his normal perverted self which in turn caused me to shock him.
"Daddy! Mommy says it's not nice to randomly shock people!" My one daughter yelled to me.
"And mommy's right Layla... But back then I didn't care... Which is what got me into a lot of trouble... Now can I continue?" I asked. She looked like she was in deep thought before she nodded. I sweat dropped at her, she's just like her mother.
Right, so after my team called me out, I caved.
"Okay Boss, spill, why have you been acting weird? I mean you normally ignore us but this is not normal... We can at least get a growl or grunt out of you but we can't even get that..." Bicks asked me.
"Looks like he's in love..." Ever said with a smirk on her face. That is the one sentence that got my full attention.
"WHAT?! No way in hell!" I snapped. I was shocked that she would come up with that conclusion in the first place.
"Oh Laxus don't try to deny it, it's written all over you face... So, tell us, who can you not get out of mind?" Ever asked in a sassy tone.
"Dad... It's aunt Ever she's always sassy no matter the situation... It's just how she is..." My son said randomly.
"Yes I'm aware... But you can't ever say that to her face... That fan of hers does actually hurt..." I grumbled. "Now can I continue?" I asked annoyed with the interruptions. He gave an annoyed sigh but nodded.
Okay so, after I dodged their questions and assumptions for like an hour I finally gave in and told them everything. Which was a bad idea at the time since I didn't realize Mira was behind me because she was bringing up our drinks. I finally knew she was there when she let out a squeal. I had to cover my ears because of how loud she was. But I wasn't the only one the other slayers held their ears too.
"What the fuck She-demon?" I growled in annoyance.
"Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god!" Mira continued to squeal. I thought my life was over by the look on the demons face. But luckily, thank the heaven's for Freed.
"Mira darling... Let Laxus do this on his own... You can't get involved, remember the whole Cana and Bacchus situation? They still refuse to speak to each other..." Freed said.
"Wait?! Aunt Cana liked that Quatro Cerberus trash?" My son ever so politely interrupted me again.
"Now son that's not nice... They are still allies of ours..." I said as I slid a hand down my face.
"What? Bailey is a jerk!" My son said as he puffed out his cheek.
"Oh? What did Bailey do?" I asked curious as to why he would call someone he called his best friend last week a jerk.
"He was flirting with Layla!" My son yelled. To say I was pissed was an understatement.
"Seth! He was just being nice!" Layla pouted.
"No! He even admitted that he was just my friend because I have and I quote 'hot sisters'!" My son growled.
I sighed, "This is why I'm keeping them locked up until their 50..." I grumbled. "Can I continue? You are the ones who asked me to tell you the story of how me and your mother met and fell in love remember?" I asked annoyed.
"Yes Daddy!" Layla smiled. She has her moms smile with my eyes and hair color to where our son has her hair and eyes and some how my cocky grin. Go figure. Then there is Zoey who has her moms hair and my eyes and is very shy. So unlike either of us. So I have no idea where she came from. Well I do but, oh hell you know what I mean.
Anyway, Mira wasn't happy about being reminded of her failed ship. But of course she was still determined to stick her nose where it didn't belong.
"Her birthday is coming up! You could get her something!" Mira heavily suggested. And when I say that, it wasn't actually a suggestion it was more like an order.
"She doesn't even know me, probably doesn't even know I exist..." I grumbled still staring at your mother smiling and laughing. She had the most infectious laugh you've ever heard.
"Dad focus..." Seth said.
Right right. Anyway, it seemed like she dropped it for the time being which I was relieved but it was short lived when I over heard the conversation from the bar. Mira actually approached her at the bar. Can you believe it? Trust me she doesn't get the name she-demon from nothing.
"Oh Lucy!" Mira said in a sing song like voice.
"Hi Mira! Why are you so happy all of a sudden? Did Freed finally propose?" Your mother said with an evil looking smile. It was sexy as hell but evil at the same time.
Mira's face got so red it wasn't even funny when she shook her head rapidly. "N-N-No! Nothing like that! I was just wondering what do you want for your birthday its coming up right?" Mira asked quickly changing the subject.
"Oh! Yeah..." Your mother said shyly with a blush. The blush just made her look even better in my opinion. But still. "Well... This new movie is coming out and I wanted to see it in the worst way but Lev and Cana can't go... Not to mention Cana doesn't even like the books that the movies are based on... And Lev is going on a job with Gaj finally!" Your mother said with a giggle. "And well no one on my team even knows I like this series let alone know what it is... I don't think it would be safe to even take Natsu or Gray to the theater to begin with... I mean they wreck the guild on a daily basis just arguing... Can you imagine them in a theater?" Your mother exclaimed. Yes I was listening intently on this conversation.
"Oh my you're right that would end badly! Oh what about the out door theater?" Mira suggested.
"Hm? Ever heard the term forest fire?" Your mother said cheekily.
"Good point... Hm... Oh! I know the perfect person!" Mira said happily, which made me panic, that demon, I knew she was up to no good.
"Oh? Who?" Your mother asked in a curious tone.
"Oh my sister and Ever! They would both love to go with you! Lisanna because she wants to get to know you more and Ever... Well her only true friends are the Thunder Legion and Elf who she thinks no one knows their dating..." Mira said sadly. I was wondering where Mira was heading with this I thought she was going to say my name but she didn't.
"Oh? Well Lis would most likely want to bring Natsu which I already said was out of the question... Ever? Wouldn't she want to bring Elf? I mean it's not exactly a girl group type movie..." Your mother explained with a blush.
That's when I saw that evil sparkle in Mira's eye. "Oh?! Really? So it's more of a date type movie?" Mira asked making herself sound curious.
"Yeah... But that's why I wouldn't have minded going with either Cana or Lev... Though Cana likes to get touchy when she's drunk though... I don't know if she would have been a good choice... But Lev loves the same book series as I do so it wouldn't have been weird like it would be with everyone else..." Your mother explained. Honestly I couldn't follow her logic on it at all. She made it sound like she and Levy were a thing.
"But isn't Aunt Levy with Uncle Gajeel?" Layla asked.
I sighed, "Yes she is... But as I said it's how she made it sound... Now pay attention!" I said in annoyance.
But anyway, Mira looked like she was deep in thought about it. "Well... I could lend you Freed for the night..." Mira said making even my jaw drop. Freed just looked like a tomato.
"Um... No thank you Mira... I mean we get along when it comes to books but going to a movie? Yeah no... But you're both welcome to come along if I ever find someone to go with me..." Your mother said with a smile. God that smile.
"Dad!" Seth growled.
I sighed, "Alright! Sorry I can't help it that your mother's gorgeous... Give me a break..." I said.
Anyway, Mira looked deep in thought again. "Well, there's Bickslow?" Mira said. What seriously!? Bicks? I mean Come on!
"Yeah no... Cana would definitely kill me on that one..." Your mother said crossing her arms leaning onto the bar. Okay for a few seconds my eyes did travel to her ass, because I mean she has a great looking ass.
"Can you worry about checking mom out later? Get on with the story dad!" Layla said. I chuckled, I loved my kids at times.
Right anyway, Mira then being the demon she is decided to list off every guys name but mine which in turn Lucy gave a reason of why they wouldn't be good choices. I was getting annoyed and I was wondering what game she was playing at.
"See, Mira there's no one in this guild that would 1 want to go and 2 want to go with me... Not to mention their all so rowdy ALL the time! We'd get kicked out instantly..." Your mother said in a defeated tone.
Mira crossed her arms looking like she was deep in thought again when that evil smirk of hers appeared. "Oh! I know the perfect person! And you can't say no!" Mira said and I swear there were actual sparkles in her eyes.
"Who?" Your mother asked with a raised eyebrow.
"It'll have to be a surprise since you shot everyone else I mentioned down! They'll pick you up on Friday!" Mira chirped. I swear that woman is pure evil!
"Mira! That's not fair!" Your mother whined. Yes, she did whine a lot come to think of it but oh well.
"Oh yes it is! You've shot everyone I've mentioned down, with this one I'm not taking the chance of you shooting this one down!" Mira said with a no arguments tone.
Your mother sighed, "Fine..." Lucy said defeated. "But they better not be destructive and actually look good..." Your mother said after finished her strawberry milkshake.
"Mommy really likes those don't she?" Zoey spoke up for the first time.
I chuckled, "Yes she does... She's slightly obsessed with them..." I said.
"Slightly? Dad that's putting it mildly..." Seth said laying back with his arms behind his head. Yup my kid alright.
"Yeah I know but I'm trying to be nice..." I said and sent a glare towards my son when he snorted.
Right so anyway, you mom left the guild since it was getting late and Mira came back up to me with that devilish smile on her face.
Before she could say anything I put my hand up to stop her. "No! Not happening! I'm not doing it... I don't do Movies or dates and you know that!" I growled totally annoyed.
"Dad when aren't you annoyed by something..." Seth asked with a smirk. Sometimes I wonder where he gets his attitude from.
"Keep interrupting me and you'll be my next target..." I growled.
"You can try but I can eat your lightning you know..." Seth said in a smug tone.
I glared at him. "Yeah my regular lightning not my red lightning..." I said in an equally smug tone. I saw him cringe. The last time he tried he burnt his mouth. It sure showed him not to be so smug and cocky.
"Both of you stop! Daddy! The story!" Zoey whined. I chuckled.
Right. Well anyway, Mira wasn't letting up. "But please Laxus! It would mean so much to her!" Mira pleaded with sad puppy eyes. Now they don't work on me so I could ignore them easily.
"No Mira... Not happening..." I growled.
So she decided to play dirty. "You owe me Laxus... After all I could always tell master about the shower room incident..." Mira ever so nicely threatened.
"What's the shower room incident?" Layla asked.
"Oh um... Nothing forget it... It was a LONG time ago..." I said in a slight panic.
Anyway, I couldn't believe she would bring that up of all things. "Mira..." I growled.
"You'll do it! And you'll take her to dinner, then the movie, it doesn't start till 9pm so if you pick her up at 7pm you should have plenty of time to eat and make it there..." Mira said in a winning tone.
"No Mira! I can't... I don't do dates... I go home with a woman have my fun and leave... I don't do dates..." I said as I raked my hand through my hair.
"It's for her birthday Laxus! She hasn't had a nice birthday in a few years... Her one birthday we were all at the games and she was in the infirmary... Then the next one the guild was disbanded... Then there was the attack from Alvarez..." Mira listed off using her hand.
To say I felt a bit bad about the whole thing was an understatement. "Ugh! Fine Mira... I'll do it!" I said letting my head fall to the table. "This is so not going to go well... I'm horrible when it comes to these things..." I said although I think it was muffled by the table.
"Don't worry Laxus we'll help you!" Freed said ever so valiantly.
I groaned, "Greaaaat!" I said with a roll of my eyes.
Okay so Friday was 3 days away. And to say I was dreading it was an understatement. I've said it a million times, I didn't do dates I don't do movies or dinners. It's just not something I did.
So when Friday came around I was nervous. Yeah I know right, Me, Laxus Dreyar, was nervous of going on a date. I had met with Mira, Freed, Ever, and Bicks at my house and they spent hours arguing over what I should wear, how I should act, where I was taking her. Everything! They argued about everything. It was nearly 5pm when they all finally came to an agreement. They got me to wear a light blue button up dress shirt and dark dress pants and dress shoes. They made me slick my hair back, instead of it being spiky like it normally was. I felt so out of place it wasn't even funny.
I noticed around 6pm Mira and Ever had disappeared which confused me but hey 2 less people to annoy me about all this was fine with me.
"Relax Boss, it'll be fine! It's just Cheerleader, she's way too nice to turn you away..." Bicks said with a smirk. To tell you the truth that smirk scared me.
"Why did I let her talk me into this?" I grumbled.
"Because it's Mira... She wouldn't have let up until you did... Trust me on that one..." Freed said with a shiver. Honestly I didn't want to know why.
"Why is this so nerve wreaking... I've never felt this nervous ever!" I groaned.
Bicks just fell off the arm of the couch laughing. Freed looked sympathetic. "Relax Laxus... Everything will be fine..." Freed said sounding supportive.
"Yeah it's just for today right? It's not like you'll be going out with her again..." Bicks pointed out. I mean he did have a point at the time.
"Wait... So you didn't want to go out with mommy?" Layla asked.
"It's not like that... I liked your mom too much for my liking at the time... But I didn't do relationships back then... It just wasn't me... Just wait and listen okay? No more interruptions..." I said poking her nose making her giggle.
But anyway, here I was getting a pep talk from Bicks and Freed and I just kept getting even more nervous by the second nothing they were saying was helping. Bicks said I wasn't going to go out with her again and that's the thing that bothered me for some reason. I actually wanted to go out with her but as I said it wasn't who I was.
But 6:30pm was there and I had to go. I had to go pick her up and hopefully she was willing to go with me. That's why I was nervous because I was, and I will deny this till the day I die, I was afraid of her rejecting me. Do you believe that? I finally said screw it and teleported 2 blocks from her apartment at the time. I decided to walk part of the way to hopefully calm my nerves. When I got to her apartment I heard her inside and that's when I realized where Mira and Ever disappeared to. They went to her place to help her. I kind of felt better knowing I wasn't the only who was getting roped into this.
I looked at the time and it was 6:55pm and I figured why not be a bit early shows good intentions right? Well instead of going up to her door I waited that 5 minutes and then went up to her door. I knocked and I heard a bunch of squeals on the other side of the door. I heard your mom take a deep breath before she opened the door.
The look on her face said it all. She had no clue it was me that Mira had in mind. Her eyes went wide and mouth opened ever so slightly. I wanted to laugh but I couldn't I felt just as surprised as her with what she was wearing. My god she was breath taking. The dress she wore put her normal skirts to shame. Red, strapless, and it came to about her mid thigh. Her hair was up in bun. She looked amazing.
"Laxus..." I heard her say ever so softly that if I wasn't a dragon slayer I wouldn't have heard it. I think that's when it dawned onto her that Mira never mentioned my name the other day.
"Hey there Blondie..." I said keeping my normal smug look on my face. I know I was smug then I'm not going to deny it.
I heard her gulp, "H-H-Hi La-La-Laxus..." She stuttered. I thought she was adorable before now just made it even more true. "I'll be right back..." She said as she smiled sheepishly. She closed the door and I heard her going off on Mira and Ever for not telling her that it was me that Mira chose.
After what seemed like days, it was actually barely 5 minutes. She opened the door and closed it behind her. I think she was scared to look at me. She kept looking down the whole time. And believe me when I tell you your mom can talk someone's ears off to no end. But she was quieter then a mouse. She was just as nervous as I was. I could literally feel it coming off her in waves. I didn't feel as bad then. We walked to the restaurant took us maybe 5-10 minutes of walking. Most of it was silent. Well that was until Loke came out to glare at me.
Loke pulled me to the side to give me the normal threatening lecture you give someone when going out on a date with someone close to them. I'd say what Loke said but I'll leave it out since it's not something for children to actually hear. But after getting a glare from your mom he bowed and went back to the spirit world. I couldn't help but chuckle at the sight.
"Sorry about him! If the others could come out they most likely would..." You mother said as she scratched the back of her head.
I chuckled, "It's fine... I kind of expected it... Considering it's me and all..." I said trying to ease her worry.
"Yeah but they're a bit ridiculous when it comes to being over protective..." Your mother giggled. "So... How did Mira con you into this?" Your mother asked. And why I wasn't overly surprised she figured it out I don't know.
"Long story... Short version she said something about you not having the greatest of birthdays lately and that you deserve to have at least one nice birthday..." I said looking up to the sky. I was still slightly nervous when it came to talking to her.
"That was nice of her..." Your mother said looking down. She sounded sad for some reason and I couldn't figure out why. Did she not want to go? I didn't know. I figured I'd ask her later about it over dinner.
We arrived at the restaurant, we were seated and it turned out that a few of the women that worked there I kind of knew. To say none of them were happy about seeing me with your mom was putting it mildly. It annoyed me that they were being so rude to her so I made it a point to focus all my attention on your mother and ignored the other women which none of them liked that. Although your mother found it funny that they all looked like they were plotting against her which honestly she wasn't wrong I could hear them from where we sat which is why I didn't let her out of my sight.
But we talked through dinner and found out we had more in common then we originally thought. We left the restaurant and we still had about 45 minutes till the movie would start so we decided to walk. My original plan was to teleport us but since we were done eating early I figured it would be nicer to walk.
I had asked her what movie we were going to go see and when she told me I groaned. I've seen the books the movie was based off of plastered every where. But when I saw her face at that reaction I decided to give it a shot. I mean what's the worst that could happen right? Well before I was able to agree she said something that made me regret reacting the way I did.
"You don't have to come... I know it's not for everyone..." She said in a sad tone. But what confused me was the smile that she still had on her face. "I still had a nice time so don't worry about it..." She added.
I sighed. "Nah... Come on we'll be late if we stand here too much longer..." I said holding my arm out to her to take. She stared at me like I grew a second head. I wanted to chuckle but I couldn't not after her face softened and she linked her arm with mine.
We walked to the theater got there just in time to get a decent spot to watch from. The movie was okay. I mean it's not the greatest I've ever seen but she loved it. Which seeing her face like that made it worth it. I ended up laying on my side with my elbow propped up holding my head up. And you mother, she was laying back against me. It had gotten a bit cold and I would feel bad if she ended up getting a cold because she didn't bring a jacket. So I threw my coat over her shoulders.
"Aw! Daddy you can be sweet!" Layla said earning her a glare. But when the other 2 started laughing I just about gave up.
"Can it kids..." I growled. I shook my head when both my daughters climbed up into my lap.
Anyway, after the movie I decided to actually teleport her home. Apparently she really liked that. She was like a little kid in a candy shop after we landed. She wanted to do it again. I couldn't help but laugh and why I said what I said I don't know.
"Maybe another time... It's getting late now... And it sounds like you still have company inside..." I pointed out motioning to her apartment that now had an open window.
"Natsu..." Lucy growled. "I'm going to strangle his good for nothing dragon ass..." She continued.
"Wow... Mommy really does get mad at Uncle Natsu..." Seth said. Myself and his sisters all nodded our heads.
Anyway! I asked if she needed any help, she said she could handle Natsu and not to worry. Again I shocked myself.
"We should do this again sometime... I actually had fun..." I said unknowingly out loud.
"Really?" She asked.
I chuckled and nodded. "Yeah I did... I wouldn't mind getting roped into taking you out again actually..." I teased. Apparently she felt comfortable enough with me because she smacked my chest with the back of her hand.
"Jerk! I wasn't that bad of company was I?" She asked with a pout.
I chuckled, "No you weren't... Like I said... I wouldn't mind doing this again... Only if it's okay with you that it?" I said looking away.
"Yeah I'd like that... Thanks again Laxus, tonight was great..." She said. I was about to walk away but I felt something hit my cheek lightly. When I looked over I saw your mother pulling away from my face. I was stunned. She actually gave me a kiss on my cheek. We didn't say anything else, she just went inside with what I was pretty sure was a huge blush across her face.
I chuckled and I was about to leave when I heard her yell Natsu's name and not even a second later Natsu came flying out her window. Let me tell you she has one strong kick. Natsu hit the buildings on the other side of the canal. That's when I heard her shut her window muttering something about dense dragon slayers. Which I sort of took a offense to but since it was mainly directed at Natsu I let it go. So I teleported home where I was met by my team and Mira.
They all wanted details. That I wasn't giving. Bicks for some reason left it alone and got the others to leave with him. I didn't sleep that night. My head was still spinning from the events of the day. By the time I was actually ready to go to bed the sun was up again and my lacrima comm was going off.
"So that's how you both fell in love?" Layla asked.
"No... Not quite... We didn't start dating for another 2 years..." I chuckled when their jaws dropped.
"But?!" Seth stammered.
"Now wait, listen to the rest of the story... That was just our first unofficial date..." I said rolling my eyes at Seth's dramatic act of falling backwards onto the floor.
Anyways, after that we talked on occasions. Small chit chat here and there. But it was about a year later around her birthday again. I still watched her everyday. Like nothing has changed. Mira was talking to her again and here there was another movie coming out that was based on the 2nd book of the series.
Same problem as before. But this time Mira said my name first. But what your mother said after that shocked me.
"Why not ask Laxus to go with you? You had fun last time right?" Mira asked.
"Yeah we did... It's just... I don't think he'd go... I mean he didn't exactly enjoy the movie exactly... He did say he had fun but I'm not sure if he meant it or if he was just saying that... I mean it's Laxus... I know of his reputation... I just..." Your mother said when Mira cut her off.
"Lucy... Now you listen here! Yes Laxus is a womanizing man whore but he wouldn't do anything to make feel uncomfortable... Did he try anything last time?!" Mira asked. Boy did I want to shock her for saying that. But I left it go.
"No... He was really sweet actually..." Your mother said shyly.
"Then what's the problem?" Mira asked crossing her arms. Apparently she wasn't letting her talk herself out of this one.
"Isn't that part of his act though? Be nice and charming just to get what he wants?" Your mother asked. Yes I was mad at her saying something like that. But I couldn't blame her for thinking that.
"No! He's not like that! The women that go after him only want to sleep with him just to say they did! Tell me is that what you want?" Mira asked putting your mother in a corner.
"No! How could you think that!? Specially after..." Your mother said but she trailed off. Now I was curious as to what she was talking about. Why you ask? Well for 1 her face was bright red and 2 she was fidgeting.
"Exactly! Now why not ask him to go?" Mira said still pushing the issue.
"Because... He's not going to want to... Why would he waste his time with me? I mean he's Laxus Dreyar for heavens sake! Why would he waste his time on someone like me?" You mother said with a pout.
Mira sighed, she still had the sparkle in her eye that showed she was up to no good. "Fine... How about me, you and Lis all go? I enjoyed the first movie when it came out! You said it was great I made Freed take me..." Mira giggled.
"Alright... I guess I'll be fine with you guys..." Your mother said in a sad tone.
So, your mom finished her milkshake after making plans with Mira and Lisanna about that Friday and once your mother was gone Mira came upstairs.
Before she could say anything, since I figured out what she was up to. "Fine... I'll do it... I take her... But instead of going out to dinner pack a picnic basket..." I said standing up from my seat. I waved to them behind me and descended the stairs and headed out the door to go home. This time I was doing things my way. Last time was a bit awkward so I figured let's avoid the old flames this time around.
"Old flames?" Zoey asked.
"I'll explain it to you when you're older..." I sighed.
"He means the girls he used to mess around with..." Seth decided to put his 2 cents in.
"Ohhhh..." Zoey said in understanding. I shook my head with a sigh.
Anyway. Friday came around and once again I was nervous because Mira said to be there by 8:30pm that way we'd have plenty of time to get to the theater and set up the picnic. So I waited again and then knocked on the door. I heard her yell 'Be there in a minute Mira!' from the other side of the door. I had to bite back a chuckle so she wouldn't figure it out it was me.
But her face when she opened the door was priceless. "Expecting someone else Blondie?" I asked.
Her mouth opened and closed a few times before she hung her head. "I'm going to kill that demon..." I heard her mutter.
I chuckled, "You and me both... Come on, so we don't miss any of it..." I said holding out my arm for her.
She looked up at me and smiled while shaking her head but she closed and locked her door and took my arm. We both went to the movie like last time, but this time I had the dinner with us. So we ate and watched the movie. Even after the movie was over instead of teleporting we walked and talked. We got back to her place and same thing happened but this time I was expecting it. So, yeah I played dirty a little bit. When I felt her close to my cheek I turned my head towards her and actually kissed her that time.
I figured it might be the only time I would get this chance so I took it. Granted it didn't last long but I wasn't expecting it to. I just wanted to catch her off guard like she did to me the year before. I chuckled at her red face. The whole time she was walking away she was cursing at dragon slayers in general. I found it funny. But I actually burst out laughing when Natsu once again came flying out her window.
And just like the last time my team and Mira were waiting for me. But this time I gave them a brief run down of the night. Leaving out the part where I kissed your mom. Mira would have killed me if she found out.
"So That's when you guys fell in love?" Layla asked.
"Nope not yet... Well... I was in love with her but I didn't know about her..." I said shrugging it off like it's no big deal.
"What?! Come on! 2 years?" Seth dramatically exclaimed.
I chuckled, "Like I said it was 2 years after the first unofficial date that we got together... Now do you want to hear the rest of the story?" I asked and chuckled when they all nodded.
Okay so, again after that we would talk here and there. We actually ended up being each others Secret Santa's that year. So that was interesting. But it wasn't until 2 weeks before her birthday that following year that I asked her out. Mainly because I knew I'd get roped into taking her to the 3rd movie. Which yes, for her birthday I took her to go see it.
That day we were planning on going the entire guild some how found out about it and I pretty much had to dodge swords, fireballs, ice, huge gusts of wind that was trying to blow me across the guild. So after your mom's team attacked the rest of the guild joined in. But they stopped when your mom jumped in front of me her 3 strongest spirits and in her Leo star dress. Let me tell you, your mom is kick ass!
Gramps was the only one who didn't get involved. Which bothered me for some reason. I guess it's because I wanted his approval and permission in a weird sense. I mean your mom is his favorite, not that he would ever say it out loud. I tired to talk to him but he kept saying he was busy. I wanted to break down his door but I knew I had to go get ready to take your mom out on an official date this time.
Yes it was our first official date but in my opinion it was our 3rd. Just don't tell your mom that. So, I took her out this time to a restaurant andd came across some women who I had met before. But I didn't pay them any mind. Your mom was the only one in my eyes. And I pulled out all the stops for this, I went all out. We both had brought extra clothes to change into for the movie because the clothes we were wearing were way too much for just the movies.
We ate and I think I saw Gramps at the restaurant, I think he was checking up on me but to this day I'm still not sure. But it didn't matter I made up my mind that day that I was going to marry your mom one day and I wasn't going to let her tell me no.
"You were going to force mommy into marrying you?" Zoey asked.
"No nothing like that... I just wasn't going to give up until she said yes..." I explained.
So anyway. After dinner and we got to the movie after we changed we once again ended up in the same position we were in the first time. Now this movie was better then the first 2 I'll tell you that. I actually paid attention to this one. I hate to say it but she kind of got me into it. I ended up reading the books after that night actually just to know what she was talking about with Levy. Just don't tell her that.
Okay so Christmas that year Gramps held a Party that involved all the other guilds that we were allied with. Now all the slayers were together. So you can imagine how that all went.
"Was it like last years Christmas party?" Seth asked.
"Sort of... Just minus all you Little ones... Well, Mini and Luka were there... But they were still babies... 2 months old I believe..." I said allowing the interruption this time.
"So Mini and Luka are the oldest?" Layla asked.
I thought about it for a minute, and nodded, "I think so... I think Alec was born around then too I'm not sure... You'll have to ask your mother on that one... She pays attention to the all the kids more then I do... I have my hands full with the guilds paperwork and you 3 monsters!" I growled playfully tickling Zoey since Layla flew off my lap before I could.
"DADDY! STOP IT!" Zoey yelled through her giggles.
I stopped as I ruffled her hair. "Alright now can I finish the story?" I asked.
"Wait that's not the whole story?" Seth asked. I shook my head. "How long is it?!" Seth asked.
I shrugged, "You're the ones who asked to hear the full story not the short version... I can stop if you like... But I can tell you I don't think your mom was in love with me at that time yet..." I said with a smirk.
"When did she fall in love with you?" Zoey asked.
Well, that Christmas at the party Mira some how managed to get me and your mom caught under the mistletoe. And with Mira it's not so easy to get out of it. She has Freed enchant them to where the first 2 people who step under it get caught in a cage and the kiss has to last for more then a minute. Yes, your aunt is pure evil. Well needless to say me and mom got caught under it. Or so I thought.
I thought it was weird because she wasn't dressed festive like she normal is during these parties but she kept using the excuse that Natsu burned her outfit so she couldn't wear it. Okay everyone bought it including me. So when we got caught I had no problem but she did.
"What's wrong Blondie? Nervous to be seen with me?" I said smugly leaning against the cage. She shook her head. "Then what is it?" I asked.
"Um... Well... We... I mean I... Um... WE CAN'T!" Your mother yelled. I raised an eyebrow looking at her like she lost her mind.
"And why not?" I asked. I felt a bit hurt I won't lie.
She looked back and fourth around the guild in a panic. I didn't understand it. "Lucy you'll get out as soon as you Laxus kiss... You know my rules!" Mira said in a sing song like voice.
"But... LEO!" Your mother yelled. Which now that was weird. Something was really off since your mom never called him Leo it's always been Loke. But low and behold he appeared so we didn't think anything of it.
But when he appeared he looked at your mom who had a pleading look on her face. But when he burst out laughing I was ready to shock everyone.
"Leo! Where is she?!" Your mother whined. And yeah I found that weird.
"Mira bring down the cage... Please... My princess would not be happy if those 2 were forced to kiss..." Loke had said in between laughs.
"Loke?! You know my rules!" Mira scolded.
"I know! But that's not Lucy!" Loke just about fell on the floor from laughing so hard.
"But who is she then? Lucy doesn't have a twin?!" Mira wasn't happy. Even though she had Freed bring it down while she was waiting for Loke to finish laughing.
But when we heard your mother speak again and what happened afterwards we all understood.
So your mother turned into 2 little blue floating creatures and said, "We're sorry! We really are! But princess had to run to do something at the last minute so she had us come instead!" So yeah it ended up being Gemini the whole time. Which is why I finally understood why she was so nervous.
But about 2 hours later your real mother showed up dressed up in her normal Christmas attire and she was panting like she was out of breath. But I noticed she was holding a wrapped box when she came running in.
Now I'll cut to the chase, Your mom decided to go Christmas shopping to get me a gift that from what Loke says she was trying to figure out what to get me for weeks but couldn't figure it out but figured it out right before having to come to the party. So she asked Gemini to turn into her and come to the party for her so no one would know she left and so I wouldn't know she went shopping for me.
When she saw me in the guild she was about to come to me when a stray attack from one of the brawls came flying straight at your mom. Your mom was so tired from keeping Gemini's gate open and being so far from where Gemini was she didn't have enough energy to block it or to get out of the way. I don't know why I reacted I just did. We were only going out for a few months but I loved her a lot longer then that I had just kept it hidden from her. But I used my lightning form to get to her quick and get her out of the way. Needless to say, after I knew your mom was safe I lost my temper a bit.
"What is a bit according to you daddy?" Zoey asked.
"Your father decided to electrocute everyone whether they were a part of the brawl or not..." I heard my wife say behind me.
I gulped, "How long have you been there Love?" I asked sheepishly.
"Long enough to know that you've been keeping secrets from me..." She said with that damn smirk on her face.
"Well, at least there not bad secrets..." I said trying to down play everything.
"Oh? Well, I guess you being in love with me since I joined the guild isn't that bad of a secret... Though your plan to kiss me that time after the 2nd movie I didn't know..." She said with a smug tone. My wife can be smug when she wants to be. "Are you going to finish telling them? Or should I step in?" She asked.
I sighed, "No I'll finish it... But I'm skipping to the part they actually want to hear... I'm not letting anymore shit slip..." I said but flinched. "Ow! Woman stop that!" I growled after she smacked me in the back of the head. She's been around Ever for far too long if you ask me.
"Language!" She hissed.
"Yes Love..." I said with a pout. I sighed.
Okay so it was about 2 years later when the 5th movie came out.
"Wait how many books are there?" Layla asked.
"4..." Lucy answered.
"Okay so how are there 5 movies?" Seth asked.
"They split the 4th book into 2... Part 1 and Part 2..." Lucy answered sitting down on my lap after picking Zoey up and setting her on her lap.
"Can I continue?" I asked now that I pretty much had my whole family on my lap since Seth and Layla decided they wanted to be apart of it too. They nodded. Though I was still scared of the smirk that wouldn't leave my wife's face.
Anyway, that year for your moms birthday again I took her to see the final movie. And since I know the owners of the theater I planned an extra surprise for when the Movie ended.
So we watched the movie and it was playing the credits when they just stopped and our song started playing.
"What's your song?" Zoey asked.
"I started listening to it when your mom left on a 2 month mission that lasted 3 months thanks to your uncle Natsu... But its Like Nobody Else by My Darkest Days... I was listening to it when she got home and we decided to make it our song... But that was like a year before this..." I explained.
So anyway, The song starts playing and your mom just gave me a look of panic like she had no clue about this. She had this crazy idea that bandits were trying to take over the theater. For whatever reason I don't know. But I laughed at her theory and pulled her up and into the middle of the screen that was showing the movie. While the song was playing I gave this great speech of how much I loved her and so on.
"If I remember correctly you were a stuttering mess in the beginning..." My wife said in a teasing tone. I couldn't help but growl at her. But I got 3 more growls aimed back at me.
I sighed, "Okay fine, yes I was nervous due to your mom possibly saying no..." I said in defeat.
But yeah anyway, after my speech and the song was coming to an end I got down on one knee and pulled out a small black box and held it out to her.
"Lucy Heartfilia would you do me the honor of becoming my wife..." I said in most honest non-nervous tone I could muster at that moment. You mother never did actually answer me.
"What did she do daddy? Cause you're both married right?" Layla asked.
I chuckled, "Yeah we're married... Well actually your mom couldn't answer me because she was crying and instead of words she just tackled me knocking both of us off the stage and onto the ground in a hug... So I kind of took that as a yes... Plus she did actually marry me so that's a good sign right?" I asked teasingly.
"You left out the part where the entire guild including Gramps was there to see you purpose..." My wife ever so kindly reminded me.
"Yeah did you know Gramps wouldn't talk to me for a year after we started dating?" I said in disbelief.
"Do you blame him? Have you met yourself?" My wife said. If it wasn't for the fact that I'd get growled back at I would growl at her. It's not fair that kids always take her side.
"Should I tell them how you went behind my back and ordered the movies collector's box with all 5 movies in it and made me watch them all that night that they arrived?" I asked.
"I think you just did honey..." My wife said with a glare.
"What movies Mommy? Daddy never told us..." Layla asked.
My wife giggled, "The Twilight Saga..." She said ever so smugly. Did I forget to mention she still makes me watch them at least once a month? Yeah.
"Alright guys... Time for bed!" My wife said trying to pry herself free of 3 sets of tiny arms.
"Mommy..." Seth asked without moving. I noticed his nose twitching. She hummed in reply. "Why do you smell weird?" He asked. Which made me take a sniff. Then it hit me. Now I knew why she had the evil, smug smirk on her face.
"Mommy's pregnant again..." I groaned as I hung my head.
Okay yeah so I was on I think the 2nd movie when I decided to write this.
I think it was cute and funny but yeah anyway I hope this was a bit enjoyable.
I decided to take a break from my other stories to write this one since this one was fresh in my mind and I didn't reread previous chapters to figure out how I want the story to go...
As always thanks for the support!
