"Hey! Levy are you there?" said a voice coming from my lacrima.
"Lucy, is that you? Wait a minute, let me fix my lacrima."
After fixing it, a picture of Lucy finally showed up.
"There! I can see you know. Where's Juvia?"
"Oh she'll be here in a minute. So how are things going? Did you touch Gajeel's tail? If you didn't, don't do it. I accidently touched Natsu's before I knew what it meant. "Lucy said with a slight blush on her face.
"I'm doing fine Lucy. Everything has been great. I meet his top knights, who are really nice, and yes Lucy, I touched his tail on accident as well.
Suddenly my lacrima started to ring again. I put the other person on split screen to see who it was.
"Hey Juvia! What took you so long?"
"Sorry, Juvia got distracted. Juvia was with Gray-sama before she called you both."
"What had you distracted Juvia?" Lucy asked with a smirk on her face and a teasing gleam in her eyes.
Juvia started to blush while steam start come out from her ears.
"Um. Juvia didn't know she wasn't supposed to touch the black marks on Gray-sama's chest. After she touched it, he went still for a second then took off out of the room. Juvia then chased after him to apologize but Gray-sama said that it was ok and explained what had happened. Then Juvia came to call Levy and Lucy when she noticed the time."
After Juvia explained what happened to her. I couldn't help but laugh. Apparently Lucy thought the same since she was laughing as well.
"What's so funny? What happened to Juvia isn't funny, it was very embarrassing. No matter how much Juvia loves her Gray-sama, she isn't ready for that step in the relationship." Juvia said whiningly.
"Juvia, we're not laughing at you. We're laughing at the fact that both Lucy and I were in the same situation as you as well. I told her reassuringly when I was able to stop laughing.
"Oh! It happened to both Levy and Lucy too?" Juvia asked surprised.
"Yep it happened. Apparently a dragon's tail has the same effect on them as a demon's mark has on a demon. Lucy and I both touched their tails and the same thing happened."
Lucy finally stopped laughing and looked at us both.
"I can't believe the same thing happened to all three of us."
"Yeah isn't that strange? But I guess no matter how far away we are we still manage to get in trouble doing the same thing." Lucy says.
"Juvia misses Levy and Lucy." Juvia says with tears gathering in her eyes.
"Juvia! Calm down! You don't wanna flood the castle do you?" I say in a panic.
"Juvia guesses not. Especially since Juvia's wedding is going to be next week and cleaning up the water would take to long."
"YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED NEXT WEEK?!" Both Lucy and I yell out.
"Yeah. Sorry Juvia meant to tell you both. Juvia and Gray-sama are getting married next week. Of course you and Levy are invited, and so it Natsu and Gajeel." Juvia said excitedly
I came out of the shock that Juvia put me in.
"Juvia don't you think it's too soon to get married. I mean you two just really meet and started talking. Shouldn't you wait a little longer before you get married to get to know each other better?" I asked.
"Juvia knows that she loves Gray-sama and Gray-sama said that if he didn't have feelings for me he wouldn't have agreed to marry me so it shouldn't matter how long we wait till we get married." She said.
Hmm. I guess she's right. If you know you love the person and they loved you why wait. Then my mind shifts over to Gajeel. Do I love him? Would I say yes if he asked me to marry him today? I knew I had strong feelings for him but was unclear about if what I felt was love?
As if Lucy could read my mind, she asked "Levy, do you love Gajeel?"
"I don't know. I mean we are mates but I don't know if the feelings I have for him are love yet."
"Wait! When did you two become mates?" Lucy asked.
My face began to turn red again. I wish it would stop doing that!
"Um. We've actually been mates since we were kids." I say nervously
Lucy has her mouth open in shock while Juvia is gushing over what I just said.
"Aww. Gajeel has loved Levy since she was a child. How romantic. Juvia wishes that she knew Gray-sama as a child and we fell in love" Juvia says with hearts in her eyes. How does she even do that?
"Juvia nobody said we were in love. We just really liked each other when we were kids. He might not even feel that strongly about me."
"I doubt that Levy. Once a dragon gets a mate, their feeling never change, they just get stronger as time passes. If he liked you enough to mate with you when he was younger then he must be head over hills in love with you now." Lucy said when she finally came out of shock.
I thought about what has happened between Gajeel and I since I got here to see if anything shows that he is in love with me.
"Well he did build a library for me before I got here, and he saved me when my carriage got attacked on my way to Oak town."
"WAIT, WHAT! YOU/LEVY GOT ATTACKED!" Both Juvia and Lucy yelled.
"Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you both. My carriage was attacked by some shadow creatures that came out from nowhere. Luckily Gajeel was following us anyway to make sure I was safe. So he and his two knights Erza and Pantherlily came and saved me before I ran out of magic." I tell them.
"Well that's great that he saved you. Do you know why you were attacked?" Lucy asked concerned.
"No but Gajeel, Pantherlily, and Erza are in a meeting now to figure it out."
"That's good. Now what was this about Gajeel building Levy a library?" Juvia asks.
"Well he said that he remembered that I loved to read when we were younger. So he assumed that I still loved them and had the library made and stocked as well." I said with a smile on my face.
"Aww that's so sweet" both of them gush and of course I had to agree with them.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door."
"Come in" I yelled.
The door opened and Gajeel came in to the room.
"Oi shrimp you should make sure who is at the door first before you let someone in" Gajeel said
"I know Gajeel, but I knew it was you so I just told you to come in."
"Whatever shrimp just be careful. Now let's go, it's time for dinner."
"Ok Gajeel. Well girls, I have to go now. I'll talk to you both later."
"Bye Levy!" They both said as I hang up the lacrima.
I get up from the bed and walk over to Gajeel. He holds open the door and I walk through it. We walk together side by side in a comfortable silence before we hear someone yell "Gajeel" in a creepy voice. Gajeel lets out a sigh before he turns around.
"Gajeel there you are. I've been looking for you. Who is this? He, well I'm guessing it was a he said in a condescending way. I turn around and I see a tall skinny man with long black hair, thin mustache, dark-colored lips (is that lipstick?) and dressed in a weird jester looking outfit.
"This is my mate and fiancée Levy. Shrimp this man is Jose Porla."
