Prompt: We're both high school teacher and my student ship us but I won't let them tell you AU
Ship: Gajevy!
Levy McGarden was proud to be the Latin teacher at Fairy Tech High. She enjoyed having lunch with her best friends Lucy, an English teacher, and Juvia, a Science teacher. She enjoyed sharing jokes with Natsu, one of the PE coach, in the halls, and reminding Gray, the other PE coach, not to fight with Natsu at school. But her favorite thing about Fairy Tech was Gajeel Redfox. He was a math teacher, though you wouldn't believe that if you saw him. He wore mostly black and had strange piercings. When Principal Makarov introduced him at the start of the term, Levy was afraid. He seemed scary, and his fierce gaze didn't help. Jet and Droy, the Spanish and French teachers, encouraged Levy to stay away from him, but her interest peaked when she saw him tutoring one of her favorite Latin students. She'd known Rouge had some trouble with math, but this year had been different. Rouge was inspired to learn, she saw it even in her class. Gajeel had changed him. Levy couldn't help but smile.
As the semester went on, her and Gajeel got to talking. Their rooms were adjacent, so they'd walk to classes together in the morning after staff meetings. Levy adored his strange laugh and his subtle smirks. She found herself on multiple occasions trying to hide a blush when he complimented her skirt or headband. She had a tiny little crush on him, but they were co workers. She knew they had to be strictly professional. But then one day, she found out her classes' little secret.
"Yes, Rouge?" Levy looked up from the textbook at the black haired teens hand.
"Are you and Mr. Redfox dating?" He asked as if it was the easiest thing in the world. The rest of the small class looked up from their assignment, waiting for a reaction. Levy calmed herself internally.
"Why would you think such a thing?" Levy took her glasses off, placed them in the desk. Rouge shrugged, but his friend Sting spoke up.
"Because you always talk in the hall and stuff! It's adorable." Levy shook her head, rubbing her temple.
"Do you like him, Magistra McGarden?" Yukino raised her hand slightly. Minerva made a sound in the back of the class, almost like a laugh.
"No, now please, get back to work." Levy tried to focus on grading tests, but she heard their whispers.
"She has the hots for Mr. Redfox!" Sting said to Rouge from behind his textbook.
"They're my OTP, it's totally shipped." Wendy, the quiet freshmen in the Latin 2 class, whispered to Yukino, who nodded.
"Class, please work quietl-" Levy was interrupted by the door opening. Gajeel walked in with a packet of paper. He slammed it on to her desk.
"Levy, we have a problem." He side glanced at Rouge, who was now trying to not look at the teachers. The class was silent.
"What is it?" Levy stood up. Gajeel scanned her outfit quickly. Orange button up tucked into dark wash skinny jeans, white converse, white headband in tied back hair. He leaned down to whisper to her.
"Rouge got an 100 on his math test." Levy tried not to smile, she really did, but she couldn't help it. She hit his arm lightly.
"You scared me, Gajeel. And interrupted the middle of my class." Gajeel turned and faced the class, who quickly averted their eyes from ogling the "couple".
"Sorry guys." He laughed. He tilted his head to face Levy again. "See ya at lunch." And he strolled out, closing the door after him. As Levy slouched back into her chair, her class burst into laughter and questions.
"Mr. Redfox has the hots for Magistra McGarden!" Sting yelled, earning a glare from the flushed teacher.
"OTP!" Yukino and Wendy cheered. Romeo, easily the quietest student in the class, raised his hand. Levy pointed at him.
"Yes, Romeo? This better be Latin related." The class quieted down, look at him.
"Magistra McGarden, num amas?"
