After Lily and I had mopped up most of the mess that I had made, he gave me a feather duster and sent me off. I guess he figured I couldn't do much harm with this thing. I walked along the huge mansion and dusted anything I came across. Couches, tables, desks, TVs. Finally I knocked on the office door to Gajeel's study.

"C'mon on in." I heard him grunt.

I walked in and he was looking at his computer but he looked up at me, "How's it going shorty?"

I shrugged, "It could be better." I said quietly. "Did Lily tell you how many times I've screwed up so far?" I asked generally curious.

He chuckled, "Yeah, he told me about the broken plates and the flood. Don't worry about it. There is a learning curve to this kind of thing." I was actually pretty relieved to hear him say that. I was surprised he wasn't mad, that I broke his kitchenware, or made an even bigger mess in his laundry room.

"Thanks." I smiled, "Well I should probably start dusting off those bookshelves."

He nodded, but then picked up the phone once it rang, "What?" He snapped. "That's too damn bad! Then it really sucks to be you, huh?" I started to dust the shelves but I couldn't help but listen into his call. God whoever he was talking to, made me feel sorry for them. "I don't care, just get your ass into the office NOW!" He hung up and shook his head.

I looked at him and he could tell I was staring because his head snapped in my direction, "What?"

"Was that an employee that works for your company?" I asked.

"Yeah, his wife just had a baby and he was trying to flake out on me today. Slacker." Gajeel said shrugging and stretching. My mouth dropped open. What the heck is wrong with this guy?!

"What is wrong with you?" I snapped, "His wife just had a baby! You should be giving him a few days off to be with her and his baby."

His eyes narrowed on me, "Last time I checked I didn't ask for your nosy opinions. Mind your own business." He said.

"Fine." I huffed and turned back around and began dusting the shelves again, refusing to look back at him. I could feel his eyes practically burning into the back of my skull. I heard, Lily come in and I could smell some kind of food which made my stomach growl softly.

"Thanks Lily." I heard his retreating footsteps and the door shut. After a few more moments of silence I heard Gajeel say, "You hungry shrimp?" Did he have to say shrimp?

"Nope." I said moving on to the next shelf. This was a lot harder when I was pretty short. I was a challenge. My stomach growled but this time louder. He laughed.

"C'mon take a break. I'll share my lunch with you and maybe we can shut your stomach up." I blushed at that. I turned around and half his desk was filled with food. Wow this guy sure loved his food. Half of the food I was sure I've never even seen before.

"Alright." I walked over to his desk and pulled up a chair and sat down. "Hmm." I looked at all the different options I could choose from. I decided to go with something safe. I picked up a sandwich and took a bite.

"No, no! You're going about this all wrong! You've been on the streets far too long. So now is your chance to try new dishes that you haven't experienced before." Gajeel shook his head and held his fork out to me, on the end of it was some type of chicken with some kind of sauce on it. "Try this." He said with a grin.

I opened my mouth and bit down on the chicken, I chewed and swallowed it. My eyes started to water, my tongue felt like it was on fire. I actually stuck my tongue out and started to whimper while looking for something to wash it down with.

"You're kidding! That's too hot for you? That's mild compared to the stuff I eat."

"Nnpp!" I tried to say while my tongue was still out and I glared at him. He laughed and handed me some milk to wash down the spice. I quickly drank the whole cup and panted then wiped my mouth. "That was horrible, why would you eat something like that?!"

"It's good once you're able to handle your spices." He laughs.

I rolled my eyes, "If you say so." I picked my sandwich back up and began to eat it. I was perfectly fine with this. We ate in silence for a few moment and he looked at me and I looked at him. "Gajeel?"

"Yeah?"

"Why are you so hard are your employees at your business?" I asked once again not able to help myself.

"Shrimp." I heard the warning in his voice.

"I know I should mind my own business, but I can't help it! You seem nice enough to me. You haven't yelled at me when I made mistakes, you've fed me, clothed me, and gave me a home. If you ask me, which I know you haven't but I'll only say this once and back off okay." I looked at him to wait to make sure he was listening he nodded and I smiled. "If you treated your employees half as good as you do me and Lily then your company would do a lot better."

He blinked looking at me confused, "What do you mean by that?"

"Well if you treat employees like family, they'll do the same. Which makes your company look a lot stronger compared to your competitors."

He scratched his chin, "I'll think on it shorty, that's all. I'm not making any promises." He said grumbling. I smiled and nodded.

"Fair enough."

"Now finish your lunch, and get back to work."

Once lunch was over, I went back to my shelfs but I couldn't reach the upper shelfs so I got up on my tippy toes but still I couldn't reach. I gasp as I felt Gajeel grab me by my waist and lift me so I could dust the top part of the shelfs. I felt my face heat up, "Oh thank you."

"No problem." Once I was done I left his office with a smile. Even though Gajeel was technically my boss maybe he could be my friend. I've never had one of those before, but perhaps it was time for one.

Not long after Levy left Gajeel's office, did Gajeel sit there thinking of their conversation. Eventually he picked up the phone after his own mental battle with himself.

"Hello?"

"Grey go home." Gajeel said.

"What? Your firing me? You can't be serious! I did what you said, I came into the damn office!" He yelled.

"No I'm not firing you, you dumbass!" Gajeel yelled back. He stopped himself and took a deep breath, "What I'm saying is, go home to your wife and kid. Take the week off and enjoy your new baby." He said with a roll of his eyes.

"Seriously? Thanks man, but if you don't mind me asking what changed your mind?"

"Don't worry about it, just do it. Just be lucky I'm paying you to sit at home on your ass for a week."

Grey laughed, "Alright, I won't look a gift horse in the mouth. Thanks. Bye." He hung up after that.

Gajeel placed his phone down and sighed. He hoped the advice his little maid give him would help out his company. Either way he was starting to think that inviting Levy to come live with him was one of his more brilliant ideas.
