Summary: A series of inter-related drabble-length one-shots featuring Wendy growing up and an overprotective Laxus. AU, Laxus/Mirajane pairing, Laxus/Wendy broship. Possibly slight-crack-fics.
A/N: So... I have literally been running on less than 2 hours of sleep for the past 36 plus hours. And I had a big test. That I kinda sorta fell asleep in the middle of it. Right in front of the proctors lol. So now my biggest accomplishment thus far is actually making it through the test to the end (even though I don't really remember most of the questions...) T_T On the right side... here's an update! I actually really adore this chapter. Teehee. Poor Wendy. Or rather, poor Romeo! What a brave man.

Summary: Wendy's first date. Again, Laxus is not amused.
viii. On the porch with a shotgun
When Laxus first found out, he thought that his response was a lot calmer than he was feeling at the moment.
"I'm getting the shotgun."
Apparently, his baby (and only) sister did not agree with him.
"LAXUS!"
They had argued and yelled back and forth for the better part of the hour before Mira came home from work and diffused the situation, sending a sulking Laxus to the living room while she accompanied Wendy to her room to help her get ready.
It only took twenty minutes for them to get ready – Wendy didn't want to look like she was trying too hard so she had chosen a simple casual dress and Mira put on a light layer of make-up, and they decided to put her hair into a fishtail braid. A cute pair of ankle boots and a thin cardigan completed the outfit.
"Doesn't she look absolutely adorable? Romeo is going to swoon when he sees her!" Mira cooed, taking Wendy by her arms and spinning the younger girl around.
"It doesn't matter. She's not going!" Laxus responded grumpily.
Wendy glared at him and Mira's smile widened, a dangerous glint in her eye.
"Now Laxus," the model chided in a saccharine sweet voice, "Wendy has patiently waited three years for this boy to notice her and ask her out, and you are not going to ruin this first date for them!"
Laxus looked rebellious, but he didn't say anything. Nothing good ever came about when Mira had that look in her eye. It was almost demonic.
When Romeo finally came by to pick Wendy up, he was greeted by a glowering Laxus.
"Er… is Wendy here…?" He asked nervously, gulping as he looked up at the towering blond.
In response, Laxus threw a bullet shell at him.
"That moves a lot faster after 10 P.M."
