Chapter 31

Trip

"Gajeel," Levy moaned in ecstasy as he thrust the length of his dick into her core.

He looked down, watching his dick disappear inside of her, and that only seemed to make him harder. She drove him crazy.

"Levy," he said in between thrusts. "I'm not gonna last very long."

He'd gone a week without before, hell, he was a virgin before Levy, but since they'd been together, they had sex almost daily. Going a week without being with her was rough, and vice versa.

He slowed his pace, not wanting to explode just yet, not until she came for him. He pumped slowly, watching her tits bounce rhythmically. He took one in his hand, squeezing gently.

"P-Please…" she begged.

"Gihi," he smirked. "Please what?" He bent down, hovering over her.

Levy grabbed the nape of his neck and pulled him in for a kiss, resulting in a low growl from him.

"Fuck, Lev," he said, breaking the kiss. "Yer gonna make me cum."

"Do it," she whispered.

"Mmm," he said into her neck. "You first."

He bit down on the sensitive mark on her neck, shoving himself inside as deep as possible. Staying that way for a few seconds, he felt her walls tighten around his studded dick. She was close, and so was he. He sucked on her neck, creating a new mark on her pale skin.

Levy's body was trembling underneath him, shivers going down her spine and pleasure billowing down to her core. She too, wasn't going to last very long, as she'd always been a quick cummer, but with the pregnancy and him being gone for a week, she'd probably cum if he touched her in the right spot. She wrapped her legs around his waist, pulling him in deeper and started grinding against him. She knew he'd most likely cum from that, but she was a pleaser, and she wanted him to feel good.

Gajeel reacted to being pulled in, quickening his pace. He was about to erupt, but he didn't want to cum without her. He pulled a nipple into his mouth, while playing with the other. He knew those were her most sensitive spots now, and that'd be sure to get her off.

He must have done something right, because she started digging her nails into his back. Oh, how he loved that pleasurable pain. He wanted his back to be her personal scratching post, as long as that meant he was making her feel good.

"Say my name," he commanded.

"Ga-jeel!" The bluenette screamed.

"Again."

"Mmm, Ga…jeel… I'm cumming!"

Those were the words he wanted to hear. He sat upright again, his hands on her ankles as he pounded deeper and deeper until the point of no return. Her walls clenched something fierce, her orgasm bringing him to his. He thrust one final time, detonating inside of her.

He collapsed on their bed, pulling her closely, seemingly about to doze off.

"Eh? You just woke up!" She exclaimed, not ready to go to sleep yet.

"Still… tired…"

"You woke up just to fuck me?" She giggled at the thought.

"Yeah," he said into her hair. "Sleep…"

Pantherlily was glad his partner was home and Levy was finally herself again, but it slipped his mind that they'd be all over each other when they were reunited. He sighed as he shut the bath water off, as she forgot about it again. 'At least they're both home and safe,' he thought to himself as he sipped the kiwi juice she brought home for him.

Gajeel woke up to the spot next to him empty. He sat up, his body still sore. Jade really did a number on him, but unfortunately for her, he didn't die. That meant she was still after him and had to stay on guard when he was out and about. He was smart enough to figure out that Axos sent them, and that he wouldn't be able to take her on. Flame Brain was the only one who stood some sort of chance against Black Magic. It annoyed him to no end; he hated running from his problems, but with his new life, he couldn't risk leaving Levy in this world alone. He supposed she wouldn't be alone, as Pantherlily would most likely step in and be there as a support system… He shook the thought of dying out of his head. There was no way he was going to put himself in a situation where he could possibly lose or leave Levy.

He rubbed his face as he sat on the edge of the bed, the stress of his everyday life pooling back to the surface. He stood up and groaned, looking for a pair of pants to throw on.

"You're awake!"

Gajeel was suddenly jumped by a cheerful Levy.

"Shrimp," he said, holding on to her ass for support.

"I was starting to worry," she said, nuzzling his neck. "You were asleep for an entire day!"

"Shit," he said, surprised. "It didn't even feel like it was that long."

"Well, how do you feel?"

"Much better."

He did feel better. The bags under his eyes were gone and he felt rested.

Levy beamed at him, happy that he was well. She peered into his eyes, reading a story of stress.

"What's wrong?" She asked, concerned.

"Huh? What do you mean? I'm fine."

"I can tell when there's something bothering you, spill it."

He didn't want to worry her with the details, so he decided to keep it short and sweet.

"Just still a little sore, that's all."

Levy didn't believe that's all it was, but she didn't want to push him any further.

Gajeel knew they were in this together and she would do anything in her power to make sure he was happy, and he was happy, but he also knew she was a worrywart, and she would overthink about the slightest inconvenience. He figured, if she didn't know about it, she wouldn't stress about it.

"So," he said, setting her down. "Pick a place."

Levy looked at him, confused. "Eh?"

"Anywhere you want to go, I'll take you."

"What's the occasion, handsome?" She asked, blushing.

"I dunno," he shrugged. "I just want to do something nice for you."

"Well, you're the one going out and working and stuff, let me take you somewhere," she suggested.

He laughed, thinking she was the cutest thing ever. "It's alright, Shrimp," he said pinching her cheek. "It's what I'm supposed to do. I'm serious, though. Pick a place."

Levy had always wanted to relax for a few days at the beach, but she never got the time, and she never had anyone to go with, as the location she was thinking of was suited more for couples.

"Well," she said, thinking. "I have always wanted to go to this resort by the beach."

"Great. Let's go," he said, pulling her toward the door.

"Wait, you're trying to go right now? I haven't packed or anything!"

Gajeel wanted to lay low and not have to worry about anyone attacking for a few days. The sooner he left, the happier he'd be. It was tiring having his guard up all the time.

"Besides," she continued. "I wanted to go into town and pick up a few things I saw the other day."

Magnolia was the last place he wanted to go. He assumed Jade and Revan knew the town in which he lived, and shouldn't be too far away. Honestly, he was at risk just by leaving the house. He couldn't sense either of them because of Revan's power, and that made things all the more terrible. Still, he didn't want to tell his beautiful mate 'no', nor did he want to explain why that was a bad idea, so he bit his tongue and allowed her to drag him into town.

Gajeel walked a few feet behind Levy, keeping an eye out for the two that ambushed him on the train.

"Gajeel!" Levy said, pointing to a window. "Look!"

She was pointing at an iron crib that was actually pretty adorable.

"I dunno, Shrimp," he said, thinking. "I don't know if I can trust myself not to eat it."

She puffed her cheeks out as he chuckled. "You can't eat the baby's crib!"

"Relax," he said, patting her head. "I wouldn't, but we don't know what type of power this kid will have either."

"Well, they're not going to be using powers right off the bat, right? Let's just look at it!" She dragged him into the small shop, making a beeline for the crib. After a while, she started browsing through other various items. She stopped at the clothing section, looking through a few dresses.

"Come on, Shrimp," Gajeel said, getting paranoid about being in one place for too long. "You don't need any more dresses. You have plenty."

"Well, I can't fit a lot of my dresses, and I don't want to walk around in your shirts forever," she motioned toward the baggy black tee shirt she had on.

He knew she was right, so he let her continue to browse, more on edge than he'd been in a while.

About ten minutes pass and she was finally done with her browsing. She had a handful of clothes in her arms, both for her and the baby.

"I got a bunch of stuff that would work for a boy or a girl," she smiled up at her mate, who looked skeptically at the pile.

"Whatever, let's just buy this and go," he said as they walked up to the counter.

Levy sensed a bit of frustration coming from him, and wanted to figure out what was wrong. She held his hand and leaned on his shoulder, trying to make him feel a little better.

"I love you so much," she said quietly, squeezing his hand.

Her efforts in making him feel better seemed to have worked, his body relaxing a bit at her touch. She put her hands on his shoulders and turned him so he was facing her.

"You never have to experience any hardships alone ever again," she said, looking into his emotion-filled, crimson eyes.

He absolutely adored his Shrimp. He couldn't stress that enough. He didn't really know what to do but embrace her right there. He held her tight, her scent washing over his mind and body, making him sane again.

"You guys are a beautiful couple," the cashier said, finishing up with their things.

"Thank you," Levy said, beaming at the woman. "He's a bit grumpy sometimes, but who can deny that face?" She gushed at her tall mate.

Gajeel blushed at her words, grumbling as he gathered their things.

"Wait! Do you guys have a bathroom?" The script mage asked.

"Down there, to your left," the woman said, pointing.

"Wait here, I won't take long!" Levy said, scurrying off toward the bathroom.

A minute or so passes, and Gajeel was getting impatient again, hoping his Shrimp would hurry up. He paced back and forth, waiting, praying no one would pop up. He suddenly felt very uneasy… why? He wasn't sure yet.

"Shrimp," he said through the bathroom door. "We should go."

Levy heard the caution in his voice, and quickly exited the bathroom, ready to go.

"What's next?" She asked, looking up at her mate.

He debated on going home first or just going straight to the beach. He wanted to drop their things off and let Lily know they were going to be gone for a few days, but he also wanted to leave Magnolia ASAP. He tuned into his senses, getting a feel for the area around him. He couldn't pinpoint anything, but that meant nothing because of Revan's power.

"How far away is this beach?"

"Maybe an hour or so by train," she said, thinking.

"Alright, we'll go home first and drop this stuff off, then we'll go." He said. "Hold on to me." He slipped into the shadows and slid out of the store and in the direction of the woods, toward home.

"I think we lost him, Jade," Revan said, peering off into the distance he was sure the slayer went.

"Darn," she said, looking saddened. "I was hoping to get him to give in to me."

"Come now, Jade," Revan chuckled. "Is it really necessary?"

"He's the best looking one so far, I'm certain whoever he's mated with isn't doing him any justice. I'm much more suitable to be a dragon slayer's mate."

"What fun would that be?" Revan asked. "Watching a loved one die?"

"Sometimes I forget that I'm cursed." Jade sighed, leaning on his shoulder. "Revan. Will you stay with me until the end of time?"

"Of course, my queen."

The nature of their relationship was odd. They weren't together, yet they could easily be mistaken as a couple. In reality, they were just bounty hunters who met maybe ten years ago and have been inseparable since. Revan loved Jade, and would do anything for her, but the feelings weren't reciprocated in the way they needed to be. She loved him, more as a best friend than as a lover. It'd be a lie, though, if she said she hadn't thought about it, but that was a line she just couldn't cross. They both got into the same business at a young age, and since, Jade has always kept it strictly professional with him. She knew of his feelings for her, and maybe in an alternate universe, she'd consider it.

The two went toward the trees, trying to follow the slayer.
