Man I'm in tears, watching sad movies. It's making me so depressed. I was just watching Flicka and it took me on an emotional roller coaster it just made me write the next chapter. I keep sniffling when I'm writing….right….on to the story.

Me, Myself, and I are holding hands. We promise to work harder and to do are best. My team (full of myself) would like to thank the wonderful people for reviewing me, following me and so on.

Gajeel's POV
I came in the guild damn early for the sole reason that would actually make me go the guild at 5 in the morning. Shrimp was finally going to admit her feelings to Speedy. And as her friend, she asked for my help. Don't know if I would be any helpful for whatever shit that would go down but she asked so I'll help.
I mean I at least owe that to her, I mean I beat her and pinned her to a tree with public humiliation. Though after everything that happened and I was accepted back, she was one of the people to accept me back though she wasn't the first, surprisingly that was bunny but back to Shrimp. We're friends since I wanted to make up for what I did but people keep thinking me and her are romantically interested in each other. I say bullshit. I mean, just because I don't have a lot of female friends and hang with Levy doesn't mean I fucking love her. I spend time with Juvia when she isn't stalking Gray, does that mean I love her? No. I may have a love interest but it isn't shrimp.
Back to the matter at hand, Levy asked me to fend Mira and Droy for enough time for them to get out of the guild for some alone time. I don't know how to fucking distract the demon and fat-boy there but I'll have to try.
This is the reason I came early. I needed to get ready to distract the she-demon and Mr. Plant boy.
So I was now in the guild. There were a few sprawled bodies laying on the floor, table and chairs here and there. Other than the seemingly dead bodies of drunks, there was only one other mage in the guild. She was humming as she was cleaning the dishes. The one and only she-demon, the wolf in sheep's clothing.
Fuck, what am I going to do?
Then I caught her scent. I'd recognize that fucking delicious and alluring smell of vanilla and strawberries anywhere.
That's it! I can get her to help me and I'd get to talk to her and maybe spend a little time with her. Besides, she has the brains to make the best fucking plans.
Speaking of Bunny, she was the first to welcome me back because she's the most forgiving and she's the light of Fairy Tail. I may or may not like Bunny girl but that's my damn business. Shrimp says she can tell I like her because I blush when she's the topic or she's the person I stare at in my corner. When she says it like that, it makes me feel like a stalker. Well shit. So what if I like her, it's not like she's going to date me. I don't deserve her after what I had done. What I had done to her was worse than Shrimp. I might have killed her if flame-tard didn't intervene. Actually, lately I haven't seen her at the guild or with Team Natsu that much. She comes and hangs out with them and I see her at the training grounds when I go there but...Well she's here now.
"Hey Bunny-girl! Just who I needed, you're right on time. I need your help on something." I shout as she comes through.
Mira gleams at me with that creepy smile at the side. I ignore her. Bunny looks surprised but she walks up to me anyway and only now do I see who she's walking with.
Laxus
Well, Laxus and his team. I consider them a threat, well except Evergreen, to Bunny and me. My possessive dragon side tells me she's mine and only mine but I can tell that goes for Laxus too. I growled at them but not too loud for them to hear. Laxus was the only one who heard before he smiled smugly at me.
"Gajeel? What's wrong? Why do you need me?" She heads to her normal bar stool. I sit at her left and Laxus sits at her right. Fuck. While she wasn't looking I finally checked out what she was wearing. She was wearing shorts that revealed long, creamy, and smooth legs that I love to run my fingers down. She's also wearing a tank top that revealed some of her unbelievable cleavage that I would love to dip my face into and-
"Gajeel? Hello, you still haven't answered my question." She waved a hand in front of my face, oblivious to the fact that I checked out her body. Though someone else did notice or should I say some people. Laxus was glaring at me with a scowl on his face. Mira was trying to stifle a baby's moment with hearts in her eyes as she looked at the intense possessive nature over Lucy, she was imagining and comparing how each of our babies would look like if Lucy chooses one of them. Bickslow and Freed seemed off, though not as intense as Laxus.
"Bunny-girl it's about Levy."
"Levy, what's wrong with Levy?"
I really couldn't let the she-demon hear so I leaned down and whispered in her ear. "Mira can't hear about this, distract her first."
When I sat back up, Mira was screaming with a crap load of flowers surrounding her. Lightning rod looks like he was going to kill me, like he could, I scoffed internally. Lucy had a little blush and she nodded. I smirked at the thought I could fluster her.
"Hey Mira can you whip us up some breakfast, oh, and my usual please." Bunny-girl snapped Mira out of her daze and the she-demon went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
When she was out of earshot I turned to look at Bunny's expectant look and Laxus' 'better tell me why you did that or I'll kill if the reason isn't good enough' look.
"Shrimp needs help. She's finally going to admit her feelings for speedy so she asked me to distract the she-demon and Mr. Plant boy. You know how they get and it would end up like shit." Laxus and his team looked surprised for a moment, probably they thought I was in love with Shrimp. Well, that or I was actually helping somebody willingly.
She hummed in agreement, "I have until 7 before I need to leave but I can help."
"Huh? Since when were you so busy, Blondie?" Lightning rod looked at her surprisingly. He's right, we don't see her around the guild unless she has plans with someone or she's at the training ground.
"Yeah, Bunny-girl, we rarely see you in the guild hall. It's like you're always busy with something else."
"Speaking of which, you haven't been taking missions with Team Natsu and you don't hang out as often then you did before." Uptight rune man was the one who had spoken. He was truly curious as to what was wrong with her lately.
"Oh my god, you guys. You sound like my parents questioning me as if I was sneaking around all the time." She sighed in resignation. "You didn't hear? I went on hiatus from Team Natsu. Technically I quit for the time being."
This caught all of our attention. We probably haven't known because Lightning rod and his worshippers were on a long S-class mission. I just don't listen to other people talking in the guild, don't really care unless it's something I should be concerned about and this is something to be concerned about.
"Cosplayer! I thought you would never leave that team because of Natsu. Didn't you guys have a think for each other? Why the hell would you do that?" his fucking tongue rolled out.
Frankly, everyone thought they were in a relationship or at least liked each other. As much as that vexes me, Natsu stuck to her like glue.
She choked and then started laughing. What the hell, is she nuts? When she calmed down she just smiled and said, "I don't know why everyone thinks that. I think of Natsu as a brother and for your information, I've been helping Natsu with Lisanna. In fact, I was the one that sent those two alone on a date mission so Natsu could finally confess. I bet you by the time you come back, there will be a new couple in Fairy Tail."
The rest were as surprised as I was. I was actually immensely happy and I could tell Lightning rod over there was too.
Evergreen interrupted our moment of happiness, "Wait, that doesn't explain why you quit Team Natsu."
She frowned; clearly she wasn't happy about this subject. I also saw Evergreen eyeing a certain spot, the left side of her stomach. I don't know what she was looking at though. It was covered. Laxus and the rest seemed to notice what Evergreen was looking at her and waited for an answer.
"Let's just say I had some personal issues I'm working on. Oh and I'm undergoing some training, Erza's also helping me."
...
"Oh and Gajeel I can handle Mira, Gajeel. I'm sure you won't know how to deal with her but I can. For Droy, here, give this to Droy and say it's from Lucy." She handed me a piece of paper.
Then it registered.
"EH! ERZA'S TRAINING YOU!"
"Oh that, I said she was helping me. She only trains me in the morning though and sometimes in the evening when she's free. After those times, it's just me and my spirits. Why?"
"I praise you, surviving Titania's hardcore training."
"Erza just goes through extreme measures, Ever. I feel afraid everyday waiting for what she's going to do the next day but it helps. I improved a lot and she pushes me to my limit. Best friend or not, she doesn't go easy. Her training is amazing." She smiled as she reminiscent of her training so far but then shivered. What the fuck, Erza will kill her, I just know it.
"Is that where you got that scar on your stomach" What? What scar is Ms. Fairy-wannabe talking about? Bunny-girl ain't have no scars. I know after all that revealing clothes she wears. Even if she had a scar I think it would look damn sexy if she had one. I'd trace my fingers along it just to give her shivers but she doesn't have one…..or at least I think she doesn't have one.
Bunny-girl tensed and became pale when she heard that. "I don't know what you're talking about." She began hyperventilating and her eyes flashed as if she was remembering something. She clutched the left side of her stomach and tears gathered in her eyes. She was looking straight ahead as if something was happening right before her. She started shaking and sweating. I sensed immense fear.
"Food's done everyone's favorites!"
...
"Huh? Lucy, are you okay?" That snapped Bunny out of whatever trance she was in. She blinked the tears away and forced a smile.
"It's nothing Mira, thanks for the food." The she-demon didn't see the tears or what had happened and fell for Lucy's act. Now I'm worried.
The she-demon walked away and began setting up again. Bunny just sat and stared blankly at her food as she ate it.
"Blondie…" she flinched and ignored Lightning rod. She also avoided our stares.
We all just ate our food. Bunny-girl was the one who finished first.
"I handle Mira, just remember the paper I gave you and Droy will be busy the whole day." She avoided looking at me in the face and before I could say anything, she walked away towards the she-demon.
I glanced back at Laxus and we shared worried glances. Even if we don't agree with each other, we can agree that something's wrong with Lucy and we'll do all we can to make her happy again.
HOHO, please vote for who she ends with and before we all get tense. I'm going to introduce the love potentials in the story first before closing it so sit tight. Also please check out my other story. Please Review!
