Summary: Levy gets all dolled up for a party at the guild. But when she reaches the guild, she notices something is off...

Look At Me

Levy finished getting ready, dressed up for the party. She looked at herself in the mirror before deciding she was missing something.

Lipstick.

She pulled out a small lipstick that she got as a reward from a mission that she had never tried. She wasn't one for makeup, but she thought she would try just a little blush, just a little lipstick. Just for tonight.

Of course, her brain was giving her a very good reason for why she wanted to get all dolled up, but she chose to ignore it.

The lipstick, titled "Look At Me", was a beautiful shade of pink. Levy was surprised at how well it turned out. Smiling brightly, she left her room to join the other girls in Fairy Hills.

All the girls glanced at her, surprised. "Levy-san, you look so beautiful!" Wendy exclaimed.

"Thank you!" Levy replied gratefully.

"You always look pretty, but you went all out tonight." Erza noted. Levy blushed.

"Maybe. I didn't...uh, realize."

"And Levy-san's sudden need to dress up has nothing to do with Gajeel-kun?" Juvia asked, skeptically. Ah, you genius Juvia. If only you spent less time stalking-uh, following-Gray, you are intelligent enough to do anything!

Levy hoped they would take her rosy cheeks as the blush she had applied. "N-No, of course not! What are you talking about?"

All the girls smiled knowingly at each other. Although choosing not to press any further, the girls set off to the guild.

The moment they entered, every head turned. Everybody greeted them with festive looks.

But what's this? The men are staring at Levy. What's up?

The girls split off to find others to chat with. Or in Juvia's case, to stare at. Levy walked up to Jet and Droy, grin gracing her face.

"Hi guys!"

"Levy, you look so beautiful!" they chorused. They stared at her intensely.

"Thank you!" she replied. "Um...why are you staring at me?"

"I feel like I can't look away..." Jet responded.

"Same here. As if you are the only person to look at..." Droy added.

Levy tilted her head. She had noted the boys' advancements before, but this was a new one. "Huh? What do you mean?"

Then she glanced around the guildhall. Other men were staring at her as well. She glanced around confusedly, before running over to Mirajane.

"Mira, is everything alright? Why are people staring at me?" she asked the barmaid, almost certain she had done something.

Mira pursed her lips. "I'm not sure myself. You look beautiful...but I can imagine it's getting creepy."

Levy nodded vigorously. "I didn't really do anything out of the-" She cut herself off. She touched her lips. Covering them was a lipstick shade titled, "Look At Me". Which she had gotten as a reward. From a job.

She ran to the sink and tried to wash it off. But to no avail, as she glanced in a glass and saw the lipstick remain.

"Oh no! Mira, I think I put some kind of magical lipstick on!" Levy cried in dismay.

Mira giggled. "Now, now. I'm sure it'll go away eventually. You might just have to deal with it for tonight." Levy did not miss the demonic twinkle in her eyes. She cursed her mentally before proceeding to find somewhere to hide.

Lucy found her behind a pillar. "Levy-chan, you look astonishing! Why are you hiding?!"

Levy grimaced. "I put on lipstick...but it's magical! And now all guys stare at me if they see me!" she cried.

Lucy couldn't help it, she burst out laughing. "Wow, Levy-chan. You should have thought of that before putting on a reward lipstick. And I have a feeling you wouldn't mind if you caught a certain man's attention..."

"Lu-chan!" Levy protested, visibly reddening.

As if on cue, the man walked in with Lily. Levy groaned and Lucy giggled. "There he is! Go on!" Lucy pushed Levy from behind the pillar into Gajeel's line of sight.

"Lu-chan!" Levy cried, waving her arms and freaking out. The dragonslayer noticed her.

"Yo, shrimp. What's goin' on?" he asked. He began to stare at her intensely.

"Gajeel...please don't stare at me..." Levy begged. Gajeel couldn't force himself to look away. He just stared. Lily smirked, snickered, and flew a few feet away to enjoy the show.

Gajeel continued to stare at her as her gaze dropped to her feet. Her cheeks reddened further, only rivaled by Erza's hair. Suddenly he grabbed her arm and dragged her out of the guild.

"G-Gajeel, what's up?!" Levy exclaimed. He pressed her up against the guildhall's wall and began to kiss her.

Huh?, Levy thought. Her eyes widened. He...he's...kissing me...

She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back. And as they deepened the kiss, Levy thought, Oh my gosh.

I'm kissing him back.

He pulled away, both needing air. Levy noticed her lipstick smeared across his lips. He groaned. "This is why I can't look at you for too long..." he whispered, just loud enough for her to hear. She blushed heavily once again.

"You have lipstick all over your lips." Levy whispered.

"Shrimp, what did you do?!" he hissed.

"It's not my fault!" Levy responded. "I didn't realize the lipstick was magical!" He groaned again.

"Well...what're ya gonna do." He sighed, a grin suddenly spreading across his face. His sharp canines glinted in the moonlight. He leaned down and picked up right where he left off, catching Levy off guard.

But she kissed him back.

Like it? Hate it? Let me know! Also, let me know if you catch mistakes. I seem to make a lot of them.
