Chapter 4

*time skip - a half year later*

LAXUS POV

"Finally we return but Laxus?" the voice of my beloved girlfriend disturbes my thoughts.

"Yeah?"

"When we return there won't be any change in our behavier towards each other, will there?" She asks unsure.

"No" I tell her and wrap my arms around her waist. She cuddles into my chest and falls asleep. I look out of the window and watch the landscape rushing by. This train ride back won't be long enough to find the right words to explain everything that happened in in the last 6 months. I smile at the thought that she's mine. Not Natsus, not Grays but mine. I plant a kiss on top of her head and brush through her hair carefully enough to not distroy her hairstyle. I remember her getting angry at me because I distrayed her hairstyle once. Back then I understood what Natsu and Happy meant when they talked about demon Lucy. Man, even I got afraid of my girlfriend. I smile at the memories of the last months. then my thoughts drift to what has happened a few days ago. I frown not really wanting to remember. I look at Lucy and watch her sleeping peacefully. Bandages all over her body. I wasn't able to protect her from all the harm. She got terribly at our fight against Blood Lust when we revealed our identities after nealry 6 month spying on them. They were pissed. Well, it was their right to get pissed because we decived them. Don't think about that Laxus. As soon as you get back, Wendy will be able to heal her wounds. Slowly I calm down. I didn't even realise when I got that angry. Oh god save me. i fall and fall for that girl over and over again. I'm even behaving like a lovesick teenager.

*at the trainstation*

"Hey, Blondie! We arrived! Wake up!"

"Ok. How do you think they'll react?"

"..."

"What?"

"Team Natsu will kill me for letting you get hurt"

"They won't 'cause they don't care about me. They didn't even hesistate to kick me off their team when i started crying" Her eyes slowly start to fill with hot tears.

"Come here. I won't let them hurt you ever again and if they try I'll kill them!"

"Laxus~"

I pull her into a hug and try to comfort her. After she calmed down we head out of the hall onto the streets. I can see her suffering from her wounds and decide to carry her.

"Huh?! Let me down that's embarassing!" she whines.

"No. I'll carry aou to the guild!"

"Bu-ut ... you're hurt too, idiot!" I don't react and carry her til she finally gives in. Within no time we reach the guild. I would never admit it but my injuries started to hurt really bad on the half way.

I kick open the door and get greeted by a, well, Fairy Tail way to greet someone - a flying table! Pissed I look for the culprid only to see Gray and Natsu disappering under a table. First I want to head there but then I remember the beautiful mage in my arms. My eyers begin to search the hall again but this time I know who I'm searching for. Finally i spot the youngest dragon slayer at a table with Gajeel and Levy. I walk over, ignoring the curious stares of our guild mates.

"Hey, Wendy! Could you do us a favour?"

"Lucy-nee what happened?"

"I kinda fucked up at the end of our mission and got my ass kicked. OMG! I TALK LIKE YOU LAXUS!" she states rather shocked.

"Well, thanks" I roll my eyes at her reaction.

"Let me see. ... I guess we should head to the infirmary. Laxus are you hurt too?"

"A tiny little bit"

"Oh, I get it. You protected Lucy-nee!" Someone, please, stop that annoying girl!

"Wendy, maybe you shouldn't tease my boyfriedn"

"YOUR WHAT?!" Every guild member shouts.

"Laxus and I have been a couple for half a year now."

"WTF" several guild members yell trying to understand what's happening "When did ...?"

"The day i got kicked off Team Natsu. Well, actually the day after but who cares?"

"Exactly. Who has a problem with that?" I look around to see most of the other shuddering in fear.

"Laxus, Lucy! You're back! How was your mission? Did I hear right? You're a couple now? When do I get my first great-grandchildren?" gramps rushes towards us.

"First, it was easy but a bit dangerous at the end. Second, you heard right and third, wtf? Not now, dammit!" What on earth is wrong with him?! Was gramps always this ... this ... stupid? Oh man, this is gonna be a real pain in the ass!


That's it!
