Its been a week since the 'incident' according to Cheetara but, for Delilah and Gajeel its felt like an eternity. "Yay! Finally we made enough money for a years worth of rent!" *sigh* the little cat then realized she was celebrating alone for once.

"what's the matter?" "hm… oh, nothing, just thinking." the cat then started to get suspicious "of…" Cheetara said with curiosity in her voice. "Not anything you need to know about. Gi Hi Hi." they both jumped slightly then turned to see Gajeel hovering over them and, Levy hanging on his arm like a little ornament.

Her bright orange dress and neon blue hair made her the emphasis of the couple she oh, so hated. "What do you want !?… trash heap." Cheetara said with a hiss.

Gajeel laughed and rubbed the exceeds head and looked a Delilah. Who still hasn't yet realized she's been staring until, he broke her of her trance. "You like what you see beautiful?"

She rolled her eyes and snorted "How could I if I don't even know what I'm looking at." Gajeel was caught off guard by rude come back. Levy giggled and earned herself three pairs confused eyes. "oh, I'm sorry it's just you kinda deserved that one sweetie."

"SWEETIE?!" Delilah had then noticed that the metal cup in her hand was crushed and, that she was now standing up. "Uhh… you ok there Iceheart?" She looked at him with a blush and said as calmly as she could. "Uhm, yeah just a little stressed about my rent." "Oh yeah? Cause I just heard your cat say you had enough for a year."

Suddenly Gajeel's face was extremely close to hers, so close that her nose was burning from his scent. "Betcha wanna kiss him ha Delilah-chan?" Delilah looked at the solid scrip mage who had a silly grin on her face. "Don't worry I know how much you two love each other." now even Gajeel had turned red and looked at Levy.

Iceheart could feel her face getting hotter as she saw how hot (both in color and physical features) Gajeel's face was. "Just give me another week with him and he's all yours." Delilah felt something snap inside of her.

"Excuse me…" 'why would she just tell me that! Did she want me angry.' "… IF GAJEEL WERE MINE I WOULD NEVER LEAVE HIM! LET ALONE HAVE A DATE PLANNED ON WHEN I WAS TO ABANDONE MY MATE!"

Levy and Cheetara's eyes went big. Levy's with shock and Cheetara's with anger but, Gajeel just looked at her with… nothing. No anger, relief, shock nothing, absolutely nothing. that's when Delilah noticed she had yelled again and now the whole Guild was looking in their direction.

She looked back at him, his red piercing eyes bored into hers. Then he turned and left with a still shocked levy in tow. She just sat down and looked into her shaking hands as she felt tears begin to form. "What were you thinking Delilah?" Iceheart looked at her partner and replied with tears. "Oh, I see you snapped again and didn't think at all."

Delilah looked back at her still shaking hands and huffed in defeat. "Well lets go home and get you cleaned up then…" "NO!" Delilah cut her off with now angry eyes. "I need to go on a mission a long one," the miniature Cheetah understood why. Sure her partner was the Elemental Dragon Slayer but doesn't mean she can't hurt.

"Ok, only because I love you." 'hmm, sometimes I feel as if you're the only one Cheetara.' "Look here's one for a month!" Delilah's head shot toward the voices of Jet and Droy, and in one swift move she was now standing in front of them. In her most evilest and darkest voice she said to them, " you'll hand that mission over if you know what's good for you."

Jet smiled and handed the paper to her then they both ran out like two scared children. "See you can get whatever you want with effort." Delilah looked at the cat on her shoulder and smiled a weak smile. ' yeah anything… but, Gajeel.'
