Laxus watched the dragon with amusment, it was so small. and it was staying very close to freed, it would go a distance and then run back. Pancake seemed to like asuka, running over to her now and again too.

Pancake, however, was scared of gajeel and Natsu - since natsu was kinda screaming "FIGHT ME!" 24/7 and laxus guessed the reason why it was afraid of gajeel was because of all his peirceings.

then, it came wandering over to him. laxus bent down and let pancake sniff his hand. then it jumped up and licked his face like it did freeds, laxus managed to pick it up. it was fond of him as it was freed.

freed came over and it reached out, he stroked the scales and smiled, "aw. think she would be allowed to join the guild?" freed looked hopefully to laxus, and laxus just shrugged.

"im afraid not, freed." macarov said, "people might get...Scared."

laxus laughed, "oh c'mon gramps! Scared? of this?!" laxus held up the dragon and it squeaked gently, as if to say 'please'

"i know Pancake is cute, laxus, but -" macarov got cut off by freeds Puppy eyes.

Macarov Litterally ran out the door,

"NOT THOSE EYES - NOT THOSE DAMN EYES!"

Everyone, including the master, thought that you lost the ability to use Puppy eyes whenever you were maybe ten, but every. Damn. Week. freed just got better.

"i swear those things just got to the size of Saucers!" laxus said, "and you added Extra sparkle to them!"

freed just laughed, he knew how to use his eyes. it wasn't magic, but for him, it was easy as walking.

"you guys are idiots, its Easy!"

"you get better at it EVERY week! i swear you take Classes!"

then, macarov looked around the corner, "Alright then, Pancake can be a member of Fairytail..."

Freed cheered. laxus handed pancake back to freed and it snuggled up to its new owner. Mother, even.

whenever freed was walking back to his house, laxus asked a quiestion, "hey, uh, freed?"

"yeah?"

"i...is it...how do i put this? i got kicked out of my apartment by the Landlady, and now i need a place to stay." which was true,

"wouldn't you want to stay with the master?"

"nah...i mean, you might need a hand with pancake too, right?" laxus turned his head to look at pancake, who was jumping in a puddle.

"laxus, i might actully need help with pancake..." with the mention of the Dragons name, Pancake came over. running and tripping over they're feet, which laxus picked him up because of fear the dragon might get hurt,

"ok, i'll help. i'd love to..." laxus wanted to say the words he always dreamed of saying - 'i'd love to be with you' but could he really just say that? he would get rejected, surely?

theres no way freed would...feel the same way i feel. i find it hard now to just...Breathe around him...i don't tiptoe around people, but him? why do i always shy away from Him?

freed wished he could tell laxus the words he always wanted to say, 'i love you...'
i can't, though, he'll obviously just...laugh! i can bearly look at him when we're alone together, i...cant breathe around Laxus, its too hard...to tell him...

Pancake sat confortably in laxus's arms, looking around him and at laxus now and again. Pancake hopped up and played with the fur on laxus's coat, "pancake, don't destroy laxus's coat..." freed reached out to pancake, so pancake tried to get over to his new 'mother' squaking contently.
