Ok so this is a snippet of what would probably will be a story. I must know from you guys though if I should proceed with it. It was an idea in my head and of course I had to set free otherwise it would be lost forever. Also I do not own GaLe or Fairy Tail. :(
His usual day at Fairy Tail consisted of skipping all his classes. He didn't give a fuck about school. The classes were boring as shit and he either slept during them or spent his time on the roof. Him being there is such a joke, they don't need him. The teachers have other students to teach and give hopes to. He isn't a pansy. As long as the teachers don't catch him up on the roof he should be fine. Sometimes he would bring a pack of cigarettes to smoke to keep him busy. He doesn't smoke weed he isn't an idiot.
There are times though that he would look up at the sky, his eyes wander aimlessly at the clouds while the smoke rising into the air. He would watch as the clouds would dance across the sky giving him a personal show. Its was peaceful on the roof, no chatter and unnecessary noises that annoyed the hell out of him. Maybe one day, he shouldn't just come at all and it won't make a damn difference.

She tried to get through the crowd squeezing past people. The watch on her wrist ticked away shamelessly not caring of her irritation. She clutched her binder tighter to her chest not wanting the slightest move making it drop. The class had to be this far and it had to be in her schedule. Merely 4'11 it was hard for her to go to her fifth period class which is all the way across campus. Usually she would leave five minutes prior to the end of lunch to get there early and with no worries. Then when the bell would ring, she would already be in her seat reading a book satisfied.
Today though had to be the worst. Amongst her friends, she was use to the rowdiness and sometimes she would read a book to catch up on her usual dosage. The consequence of being a reader is loving it, loving it meant that you don't pay attention to your surroundings. Which meant that she totally forgot until she heard the bell rang. She scrambled to her feet shoving things into her book bag and gathering the extras into her arms. She didn't even get a chance to say good-bye to her friends as she sprinted with her might to class.
Now we are back to her in the hallways, trying to get to class before the late bell. She didn't care at the moment if she looked like fool sprinting for her life. She started feeling the donkey pains at her sides while her legs burned at the overdoing. Well, she did need the exercise.
Two minutes.
She had two minutes to get to class. Not good. The books seemed to be getting heavier and heavier in her arms and the strap on her left shoulder started digging into her skin. Probably leaving a red mark on her light also felt slight irritation from it rubbing against her collarbone which will probably also be turning red.
One minute.
She willed her legs to go even faster if possible knowing they would probably give out anytime soon. The next thing she knew, her butt hit the hard floor adding that to her list of inanimate objects prone to hurting her. Her day wasn't looking too good so far. A surprised yelp left her lips as her butt burned from the damage. She looked up readying to yell at whoever it was that got in her way and probably making her late to her fifth period class. But she never did she get to yell, in fact a look of surprise came across her features as her eyes met the glowing ones of Gajeel Redfox.
They heard the sound of the bell, signaling how late they were to class, but they continued to stare at each other. Levy had never seen this person before. His eyes were the thing that stood out to her the most. The intensity she saw in them, how sharp and perceptive they looked. The color of blood. His whole posture screamed intimidating and the scowl on his face didn't ease the characteristic. He looked dangerous with the piercings on his face and arms. She wanted to ask about those, but it probably wasn't the best time since she didn't know him.
It must've looked really awkward for him because she just kept staring at him. It wasn't long before she realized that and a huge blush crept onto her cheeks. She started sputtering gibberish as she deliberately started picking the books on the floor. She was too embarrassed to look up at him looking like a fool. Or he probably just went on his way.
She reached for one of the books when she felt her hand brush against someone's. A jolt of electricity traveled up her arm ran down her spine. The other hand grabbed the book and she saw the fingerless glove it was in. Her eyes traveled up the arm, up the neck and into the eyes of Gajeel once more.
The scowl was gone now, but he didn't seem to portray any emotion. Levy probably blushed even harder since she got a closer look at gingerly took the book out of his hand and picked up the rest on the floor. She stood up and so did he. He was really tall. The floor looked really interesting right now because she refused to look him in the eye.
Five minutes. It has been five minutes since class has started.
"Watch where you are going shorty."
His voice sounded kind of gruff. Should've scared her a little , but for some reason she didn't flee. Instead she looked and gave him her best genuine she could. Something flickered in his eyes but then it was gone. She clutched her books closer to her chest. Maybe being late isn't so bad after all. She tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, out of the corner of her eye she saw him follow her movements. She balanced herself on the balls of her feet.
"Mhm, arigatou." She looked in his eyes once for a moment before she ran past him with a smile on her face.
If she looked back at him though, she would've notice how he sunk to the floor once more with a hand covering his mouth. A huge blush crept onto his face, his eyes widened. It probably looked weird seeing a guy in the middle of the hallway hunched over.
If you listened closely though you would've heard what he mumbled.
"Damn."

Levy couldn't stop thinking of the guy she bumped into in the hallway. When the teacher was talking she usually would listen and take notes. Today she completely zoned out. The would call her a couple of times counting on her to answer confidently. Instead they were given,'Huh?' or 'Could you repeat that?' They were shell shocked. One of their praised students was stumped in class. Some of her classmates were even shocked too. Her being not use to the attention, got to her and she hid her face from everybody.
She caught herself doodling on her eyes. Another blush painted her cheeks then a soft smile followed. His eyes were something that she had never seen before. The color red. Which was really rare. The color was only the beginning, the intensity in them took her breath away. She wanted to know what brought on such emotion in his eyes. He also had scars on his arms. She won't admit to anybody, but she thinks scars look kinda sexy on guys. There was so much she wanted to know about him after just meeting him. yet she didn't know his name. And he didn't know hers. There is a slight chance that they will ever meet again.
Levy sighed glumly as she continued doodling a miniature version of him on her paper.
Maybe today was really the worst day.

Shit.
Damn.
Fuck.
Those were the three words that Gajeel thought when the girl with blue hair left. She smiled at him. She fucking smiled at him.
No one and he means no one has ever done that to him. Usually they were forced ones that pissed him off or awkward winces. No, she smiled at him and meant it. Usually when another student encounters him, they cower in fear and he took pride in that. When he was walking down the halls after the bell signaled that lunch was over he was in a shitty mood. He was just in the Principal's office talking to Principal Makarov. He was finally caught ditching. Principal Makarov told him that he had to go to now for the next two months. Before Gajeel could retorted he also said if he didn't go then he would be expelled. It wasn't said ,but Gajeel knew that it also meant he had to start going to his classes again.
So when he left lunch was over and his mood diminished. If anyone bothered him they would feel his wrath. He didn't care if they were teacher or student, he was beating the hell out of them.
When she bumped into him, he was about ready to grab them by the collar and growl in their face. Then he heard a high pitched yelp. The first thing he saw was blue. Blue hair? Then his eyes met hers. A girl. A very small girl. He was waiting for it, the fear that would cloud her eyes. The shaking that would follow. Most girls would do that when they looked at him.
No, instead she just stared at him. He didn't what about him she was staring at ,but she just stared. It confused Gajeel. Why wasn't she running away? Or screaming for her life? Nothing was making sense to him, so he just stared back.
Her eyes then widened. Great, she finally figured it. A blush crept on her face and she started saying nonsense as she picked up stuff from the floor. It looked cute. Wait what? Cute? Nothing was cute to Gajeel Redfox. He's too tough for that.
He decided the least he could dogave help her. He crouched down and reached for one of them when his hand brushed hers. Weird. He felt something. Thats never happened. She let go hastily which caused him to frown. She was looking at him again. When his met hers her cheeks glowed and her eyes shifted away. She took the book out of his hand and stood up. He did the same. She eyes were at the floor and it seemed she refused to look up at him. He decided to cut this supposed conversation or whatever this is short.
"Watch where you're going shorty." There said and done now he can be on his way.
She looked up at him and he expected fear once more. Instead, holy shit, she gave him a million dollar smile. His stomach started doing somersaults and he felt hot. Feverish maybe, his head started spinning but his eyes stayed on that smile. Its probably the only one he's ever gonna tiny person didn't run,didn't scream, she smiled and blushed at him.
.Fuck.
"Mhm,arigatou."
He barely registered that she ran past him. Still on the thought that she just smiled at him.
His knees went weak and gave out. He sunk to the floor in shock. Since no one could see him it was fine, but damn that smile.
It was the prettiest smile he's ever seen. And she looked so fucking adorable.
"Damn."
There is slight chance that he will ever forget about her and that smile.
Sorry for those who wanted more, this was just a preview. Anyways, I hope you liked it. If there is any questions or anything you recommend feel free to let me know.
Love and Hugs,
