So hello everyone. Here is my gift to you. I hope you enjoy it. :)

Levy couldn't tear her eyes away from the book. It had cast a spell on her, drawn her to its world. She has become the character. Even though it's for a short period, she is living another life. Her eyes swept the pages each passing second. Her brain drinking in this new found story. As she continued reading, the story blossomed something inside her. She grew more excited as she turned each page and dug deeper. People who know her, know that she can stay locked in her room reading all day. That's if she wanted to of course.

This book wasn't long so she could finish it probably in an hour. Her friend Lucy knew that. She is probably at the guild right now waiting excitedly.

Levy didn't finish.

.

It is now early evening, Lucy was still waiting patiently at the guild. She silently started drumming her fingers on the counter of the bar impatiently. Levy should be here by now. Knowing her and her amazing skill of reading, she didn't doubt that she would have the book within a couple of hours.

When she first heard about it she knew that she needed it. It filled the lack of romance in her life, because of a certain dense person. When she went to the nearest bookstore, it was sold out. Distraught she tried every other one in magnolia and came to find they were also sold out. She was depressed when she reached guild and that's how Levy found her. She happened to have it, letting Lucy borrow it after reading it. That was the last she saw of Levy.

"..."

She snapped back into reality , when she realized how close Natsu was to her face. The color red sprung on her cheeks as she immediately backed away from the close proximity. Natsu though became confused of his partner's actions. He just asked her a simple question and she went all weird.

Lucy has always been a weirdo,but she's his favorite and only weirdo.

"Geez! Natsu don't creep up on me like that! There is a thing called personal space!"

Natsu pouted as he just looked at Lucy like she took his favorite toy. Lucy sighed as she rubbed her eyes to get rid of the tiredness. She wanted to stay another hour, but it seems her body is denying the privilege. She got up and stretched her aching limbs out.

"Well, I'm heading home. I'll see you and Happy tomorrow."

She headed towards the guild door, a hand grabbed her. She was spun around and came face to face with Natsu once more. She looked at him in confusion. He eyes held something that told her that he was thinking. The onyx eyes of the dragonslayer, that she came to know real well held such intensity that it brewed something in Lucy.

"You didn't answer my question Luce." The emotion on his face changed to worry.

A ghost of a smile appeared on her face, she sometimes didn't understand this idiot sometimes.

"Can you repeat what you said?"

Natsu didn't have to be asked twice.

"Are you alright Luce? You seemed off today."

She looked at him and knew this could be her chance to tell him. She could tell him right now, so badly.

Instead she shook her head, and gave him a reassuring smile.

"Books and love, Natsu."

Again she left the great salamander speechless.

Mirajane smiled at them. They were just so cute sometimes. Happy had a paw to his mouth trying not to laugh.

"They liiiikkkkee each other"

Levy clutched the book as if her life depended on it. Her knuckles turned white from how tight she held the book. She observed the people of Magnolia as they walked past. They all have a life, all different from the others.

She read realistic stories the most because they are the closest thing to romance she had. Now she is with Gajeel and it couldn't be more perfect. But sometimes, she didn't like how some of them ended. The stories were always beautifully written in her eyes, it ... its not fair. She clutched on to the book tighter, her knuckles turned ,even possible, whiter.

Its just not fair. A guy who fell in love with a girl,like a lot of romances, for who she was. He loved her with all her imperfections and the consequences on her life. She found someone who was possibly her soulmate, and to be ripped away like that. He was ripped, taken from her life. Like a bandaid that shows no mercy.

Levy cried for hours, curled up in a ball pouring her heart and soul in those cries. She felt her pain, the hole in her heart. She had to continue on living as his ended.

Levy couldn't help thinking about Gajeel. If that was their situation, their life. She wouldn't be able to live. He couldn't be removed. Never. She won't let him. He has stitched himself onto her heart and she intends to keep him there. Love will never perish, its always there.

The sun started setting, Levy was kinda glad she didn't see Gajeel. If she did she wouldn't be able to control her emotions. She wiped the few tears that managed to escape her eyes. A heavy broken sigh filled the air along with her heavy heart.

She got up and started walking back to Fairy Hills. Her mind still on the book, she admired the girl for how strong she was. It probably broke her heart seeing him slowly dying. His suffering became hers, she fought as he fought. When he died she kept strong for him. For he gave her something she will always cherish that she probably won't get again.

There are times though that Levy wondered what made Gajeel choose her. She was small, and weak while he was powerful, and intimidating.

She was grateful don't get her wrong. She's is lucky to have the love of a good man. Sure Jet and Droy are great too,but she sees them more as her brothers. She tried to reject them as nicely as possible even though their affections were really obvious. She hopes they will find women who will love them and cherish them as she does Gajeel. No one can compare to him, absolutely no one.

As she got closer to the gate she saw a distant figure standing there. The figure had on dark clothing and was tall and had the aura of intimidation. It was Gajeel.

Levy became stiff as she neared him. He would notice that she was crying. She doesn't want him worrying. As always he had an annoyed look on his face, his mouth was set in a thin line and his arms were crossed. There was something different in his eyes though. No one really saw the emotions of Gajeel Redfox, Levy was privileged.

"Where have you been shrimp?"

Levy tried to calm her nerves.

"At the library." She lied

She hopes he would buy it, she's embarrassed to tell him the truth. He will probably think that she is just being silly over a stupid book.

"You're lying shrimp. I already check there since you weren't at the guild."

Levy cursed under her breath. He knows her too well.

"You'd think its silly..."

"Your eyes say something different."

Of course, her eyes must be really red. He could probably smell the salt from her tears too.

He always worries about her.

"I finished another book today..."

Silence.

She clenched her book bag strap.

"A love story... it... they... really... eachother..."

He shifted closer to her their arms almost touching. She felt his warm breath on her forehead. She didn't look at him, her shoes were more interesting.

"Levy..."

The soft gentleness in his tone broke her. She clutched tightly to his shirt and buried her face into his chest.

A small cry left her lips.

"It isn't fair... just isn't fair..."

"Levy.."

She looked up at him, a few stray tears escaped her eyes. He cupped her cheeks and wiped them away with his thumb. He stared intently into her eyes as she did his. Her fingers slightly brushed up his forearm and up to his hand. She continue gazing at him not knowing what to say.

"Never will I do the same..."

Her eyes widened. His face showed determination.

"I'm not some fictional character in a book, so don't count on me dying. I'm too stubborn for that."

He pressed their foreheads together, their breaths mingling.

"Loving you is the best thing that's ever happen to me. I never letting you go."

Levy couldn't stop the blush that crept on her face. It always amazed at how incredibly warm she felt every time he said he loved her.

Before she could stop her herself, she grabbed his collar,taking him by surprise, and kissed him fiercely. She put every thing into that kiss. A kiss could say so much with the passion and love poured into it that Levy loved.

Sadly it couldn't last forever and they had stop for air. Both were breathing heavily, their chest falling and rising in sync. Gajeel showed something in his eyes that day.

Eternity.

He'll love her for eternity.

"I'm not Augutus Waters because I'm gonna love you for eternity."

Levy smiled that smile and gave out a small laugh.

"Mhm, eternity."

This time tears of happiness ran down her cheeks. Gajeel broke out into a grin that she came to love.

"Gihi."

.

.

"Ano, Gajeel?"

"Hmm?"

She looked at him curiously," How did you know I was reading 'The Fault In Our Stars'?"

Silence.

"Gajeel?"

Gajeel turned his head away avoiding eye contact. Levy came to a realization and let out a tiny giggle. He was just so cute sometimes.

"Shut up shrimp! Its not funny! Oi!"

Levy continued laughing at her beloved dragon slayer.
