The snow was starting to fall faster and the air was colder compared to a few minutes ago. Cana really wished she had brought a coat or at least worn a T-shit or a coat. "How can you wear a bikini top at a time like this?" A voice asked. Cana turned to see Laxus smoking and leaning on the front of the guild. He had one headphone hanging from his ear, and the other dangling to his side.

"I didn't know you smoked Dreyar."

"I do every now and then. Why are you out?" Laxus asked, putting out his cigarette.

"There was barely any booze for me. What's with you?"

"Happy and my grandfather are fucking annoying. " Cana nodded as she could understand how both of them could get on Laxus' last nerve really quickly. There was a few moments of silence between the two guild mates. Neither knew what to say or if anything should be said. "How long are you going to stay outside?" Laxus asked finally.

"Oh. I'm sorry. You probably were out here to get some privacy and I came." Cana asumed.

"No, it's not that. I j-just didn't want you to get a cold or freeze your nipples off."

Cana looked at Laxus with a creeped out excretion.

"Not that I was looking at your boobs. Why would I be looking at your boobs? I didn't mean that in a offensive way, I just…" Laxus sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. He could feel cold sweat on his face, but why was he nervous. "This is awkward." Laxus said truthfully.

Cana smiled. "It's okay. I'll take it as a complement." Laxus didn't smile back. Instead he turned his head way, as if he were ignoring Cana.

The young woman was bored just standing outside. She remembered Lucy had said "That fur coat of his would be warm with you and him wrapped in it, wouldn't it?". Cana's face tentatively turned red. She could feel the stare of Laxus' grey eyes scanning her body. "I see you blushing." Laxus teasingly said. "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing! I'm cold, that's all." Cana quickly replied back. "Hmm… Get over here."

"W-why? What are you doing?"

"Just get your ass over here now! Before I change my mind about something…"

Cana stepped slowly over to Laxus. She was intimidated my his poker-faced expression. The brunette didn't know quite why she was a bit scared of him. She knew that he had a soft side some were under his hard-shelled appearance. Laxus took off his heavy, thick coat revealing a tightly fitted, button up shirt. He then reached out to Cana with the coat in his hands.

"You are barrowing it for tonight. I don't want your dad thinking I'm an ass because I let you freeze to death." The young woman took the coat and put it on, not knowing what else to do. Was she getting to the soft side of Laxus? Yes, Cana could understand that Dreyar would have some fear of her father, but he wouldn't lend his beloved coat. He would make her walk her ass home to get a freaking jacket. The young drinker was stunned, but the coat was really warm.

"It suits you." Laxus said with a cocked smile. "What the fuck are you doing!? This isn't you! You are Laxus! Why didn't you make her go home if you're this worried?! But Cana is…and she… Fuck it, you gave her the coat. She thinks your nice now, not the bad ass women have sex with!" The voice in side Laxus' head said.

"Thanks… aren't you going to be cold Dreyar? It's snowing, and I'm use to wearing a bikini top." Cana asked.

"I'm not getting my ass shot to the other side of the world." Laxus said trying his best to realize Gildarts was more powerful than him.

"You know, you're a lot less cocky then you were a few years ago… Do you want to do something?" Cana asked, bored out of her mind. Laxus nodded yes with his usual blank expression. "Come on! I'll buy you a cup of coffee or something." Cana said running away with Laxus coat.

Laxus ran after her. "Great. Instead of getting laid you get coffee. Yes, coffee is better then intercourse!" The voice said. Laxus ignored it and kept on running.

*In side of the Fairy Tail guild*

Gildarts was more alert compared to a few minutes ago. He was still somewhat shock from seeing his daughter but, her wondered were the fuck she was. "Wait! Where's my Cana! Cana! Cana!… Shit!" Gildarts said looking around the guild.

Gray walked up to the panicking older man. "Cana went out side. She left like fifteen minutes ago. You didn't notice?"

"But she was trying to grab Lucy!" "Then she went out!"

Gildarts eminently ran over to the front doors and peeked out. No one was there, but there was two sets of foot prints in the snow. "Hey, was someone else out her too?"

"I think Laxus was." Gray answered. Gildarts looked at Gray, then outside, and back at Gray.

"I think my daughter left with that Bastard… Why would he leave with her?…" Gildarts' face became red with anger.

Bixlow and Freed noticed this and overheard that Laxus and Cana were gone. "It's probably not what you think." Freed quickly said.

"Yeah! They're just left to play tag or something." Bixlow added on.

Everyone in the conversation glanced at Bixlow. "I doubt they are playing tag. I'm going to go look for Cana, and Laxus better not be with her!" Gildarts said marching out the entrance.

A Freaking note at the freaking end: So many freaking tech problems are going on with my laptop.
