Chapter 18: Together
Disclaimer: Fairy Tail. Is. Not. Mine.
A/N: I realized that the link I gave you has been omitted. So just search 'Accidentally Inlove Miraxus' at Youtube if you like. :)
And as&#yg&#®h45! Of all the thirteen stories I've been following (and that includes you Dan) no one, as in NO ONE has ever updated. It's almost a month. T^T
So I updated mine, setting aside the bags under my eyes because of my tiresome shift (I wake up at 4 am and went home at 5 pm) because I know how it feels to wait.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
I yawn! 10:00 am. Hmmm. Nothing beats a Saturday morning after five days of work. So here I am at my bed wearing my pajamas. I purposely adjusted my alarm at 10 every weekend so that I will be able to sleepwell. To sleepwell is a precious prize after a series of working hard days.
With morning grace I hop off the bed, seeing Lisanna's empty bed only means that she is outside, probably preparing our breakfast. It has been a ritual for us Strauss Siblings to start our day around 9 or 10 every weekends.
When I reached the bathroom I quickly made my way towards the sink and reach for my toothbrush. There are three different colors of toothbrush. The pink one belongs to Lisanna, the blue to Elfman while mine is red.
While brushing my teeth I noticed the ring located at my left ring finger, this ring caused me to recall some of the events that happened yesterday.
-Flashback-
"I now pronounce you Man and Wife. You may now kiss the bride." The priest announced.
"KYYAAAAA!"
Gently Laxus lift up the veil covering my face and very slowly he bends down. I closed my eyes waiting for his kiss but after a minute or so there is nothing. When I opened my eyes I saw him smiling down at me.
What? Am I funny?
"You are so adorable as ever." He said and I pout at him. He's not going to kiss me.
"Smile. This is our wedding.." I was about say something when he suddenly spoke. His next words made me speechless.
"I love you Mirajane Strauss. Or should I say.. Mirajane Dreyar. My wife." He confessed.
And before I knew it he's kissing me already.
I closed my eyes. His lips. His oh so soft lips is on me for the nth time. Is this the fifth time? Sixth? Or probably seventh?
I don't know. I lost count after the second time.
I can feel his broad, muscular arms around me. Pushing me towards him until there is no more space between the two of us.
When we broke apart we were both breathless.
Putting his forehead against mine he began to speak.
"I love you, with no beginning, no end. I love you as if you have become an extra necessary organ in my body. I love you as only a boy could love a girl. Without fear. Without expectations. Wanting nothing in return, except that you allow me to keep you here by side."
I opened my eyes and saw his golden blazing eyes looking at me with sincerity.
"I like you.."
I saw his eyes widens. And I gasp. I don't know what's gotten into me but before I realized it those words came into my mouth without me actually realizing it.
"Mira.. could you please say it again?" Laxus said for the 10th time. We are now in front of our house.
"Heh." And I ignored him again and again.
"Alright then. Good night!" He said finally giving up on his attempts to make me confess. Again.
"Bye." I simply said walking towards our door.
"I. Love. You!" I heard him shout behind the close door of our house.
And for the nh time of this day, I blushed.
I am now lying on my bed with my night gown in me. For almost an hour I've been thinking of him, of his confession and of what I said. Is it because I just got carried away? No. I know it's not because of that. Do I really like him?
I closed my eyes and before I drift to sleep the answer to my question has been answered.
Yes I like him. A lot.
-End of Flashback-
I blush upon recalling my admission last night.
I finished brushing my teeth. Once I've finished all of my morning routines I quickly went to our kitchen to help Lisanna in preparing our breakfast.
"Good morning Mira-nee!" Lisanna greeted me while flipping the pancakes she was preparing.
"Good morning Lis! Do you need help?" I asked.
"Don't worry Mira-nee I'm almost done here." She said so I walked towards our dining table where Elfman is currently setting the plates and cups.
"Good morning Elfman!" I greeted him and he greeted me in return.
"Good Morning Mira-nee! It's a manly thing to have a very good morning!" He said.
I smiled. I really love my siblings.
"Breakfast is ready!" Lisanna announced.
"Yay! Let's eat." I said and with that we began sharing a very delicious breakfast.
"Mira-nee do you have anything to do today?" Lisanna inquired while putting some syrup on her pancakes.
"Nope. Why do you have plans?" I asked in return.
She nods. "I think we should watch a movie together. After all it's been a long time since we did it." Lisanna said.
"Hmm. Yes I think we should do that." I agreed.
"Yeah! We should watch a manly movie!" Elfman declared.
"A manly movie Elf-nii?" Lisanna asked.
"YEAH! Something with action a punch here and there! And of course the kicks! HI-YAAH!" He said while giving actions to every words he said causing a laughter from me and Lisanna.
"Hmmm hm hmmmm..." I am currently humming a lively tune while preparing our drinks for our movie marathon later.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Hm? My humming suddenly stops. Elfman and Lisanna went to the Supermarket to buy some snacks because we're running out of it. Who is that? I didn't recall calling for a delivery or something.
To know who it was I quickly left our kitchen and walked towards the door.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
"Wait.." I said.
And when I opened the door I was surprised to see Laxus standing at our doorsteps with a bag of fries, fruitshakes and burgers in hand.
"Hello!" He happily greeted me wearing his oh so handsome smile.
"Ah Laxus? Why are you here?" I asked, confuse.
"Lisanna called me and invited me if I would like to join in your movie bonding." He answered.
"She did that?" I asked again. Oh Lisanna.
"Yep. Aren't you going to invite me inside?" He questioned.
"Oh sorry. Come!" I quickly said opening the door wider for him.
Once we were inside he quickly settled his belongings in a small coffee table in the middle of our couch and tv.
"I made some juice if you want." I offered looking everywhere but him. I can't still afford to look at him after my.. surprising confession.
"Thanks I brought your favorite strawberry fruitshake here." He offered in return. "And.. I brough some CD's incase you are interested to watch it." He added.
"Oh good then. I'll just go get the juice. Elfman and Lisanna will be here soon." I said.
I took a deep breath. When I return at our living room with shaky footsteps I saw him sitting at the couch looking very comfortable.
After a minute or so Lisanna and Elfman are still nowhere to be seen. What happened to them?
And as if on cue, the phone suddenly rings cutting the silence enveloping us.
I looked at the caller. It's Lisanna.
"Lis where are you?" I asked.
"Ah.. Mira-nee? Sorry but Elf-nii and I will not be able to watch the movie with you." She replied.
"What?" I exclaimed.
"We met our old friends on our way to the supermarket and decided to hang out together. We rarely see them so we don't want to miss this chance." She explained.
Sigh. Somethings telling me that she's lying.
"You have Laxus to accompany you anyway we know that you'll enjoy it without us!" Lisanna teased.
"LISANNA!" But before I knew it she hangs up.
"What's wrong?" Laxus asked me looking very worried. Apparently he heard me shouting Lisanna's name.
I sigh again. "Lisanna and Elfman will not join us." I informed him to which he only nods.
"I think they set this up." I said with a pout.
"Why? Don't you want to watch a movie with me?" I asked and when I finally looked at him I saw that he's hurt and suddenly I felt bad.
"Oh no! Of course I want to watch a movie with you!" I admitted.
Instantly he's mood brighten up.
"Same here Mira... What do you want to watch? Or... We can do something else if you want.." He asked through husky voice.
I gulp and blush at the same time. What does he mean?
Slowly he lean towards me and I can't do anything. I am frozen. As much as I want to move my body I can't so I just closed my eyes. Then I felt his forehead against mine. He then grabbed my left hand and kissed my finger where our 'wedding ring' is.
"I'm glad you did not remove this." He purr. "Do you really mean what you said before?" He asked the same question he kept on asking me yesterday.
Yesterday I did not answer him because I haven't figure out the answer yet. But now..
"Yes..." I whisper enough for him to hear.
"Open your eyes." He commanded. Slowly I opened my eyes and saw the familiar blazing golden eyes.
"Say it.." He whispers.
"W-What?" I stutter.
"Say that you like me. Like you did yesterday." He requested.
I bit my lip. "Please.. I need to know." He added.
I took a deep calming breath. "Yes Laxus.. I like you.." I confessed.
And saw him smile.
"I love you Mirajane." He said and he kissed me at my forehead, then at my nose and finally at my lips. A short meaningful kiss.
He then put his arms around my waist. Hugging me as if he never wants me to go away.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" He asked me still looking at me with those blazing eyes.
I closed my eyes again. I prepared myself for this. Now is the time.
"Yes Laxus." I answered with all honesty.
"YES!" He suddenly shouted and started raining kisses around my face. In my cheeks, nose, forehead, chin, eyes, jaw everywhere.
"I love you. I love you. I love you." He kept on saying and saying how much he loves me and I smile. I know that my decision will make me happy. Will make both of us happy.
"Oh Mira!" And after repeatedly raining kisses in every part of my face he could reach he kissed me again on my lips. A passionate, slow kiss. I felt him pulled my body against his while I put my arms around his neck.
He deepens the kiss. And I moan.
"I love you.." He said again after we separate from our passionate, mind-numbing kiss.
"I like you Laxus but not yet in the point of lo-" He kissed me again cutting my words.
"I know. And soon.. You'll love me back." And he kissed me again.
A/N: Yepee! Mirajane and Laxus are now together. Finally! -wiggles my eyebrows- It took 18 chapters just for them to be a couple!
Oh well. For me, it's worth the wait. Do you want lemons? I'm not yet sure if I will put one. It depends. Haha
Reviews will be much appreciated.
Bye bye.
