CHAPTER 2:
Possessiveness Is Just Another Form of Jealousy
I was not happy.
Sleep didn't come to me since I could hear Natsu and Lucy ALL NIGHT LONG as they did the unforgivable... PLAY MONOPOLY.
Happy was yelling at Lucy, "Where'd you get the pink 50's, you cheating whore!" and Natsu was breathing fire at Plue, who was the dealer because he kept giving more money to Lucy.
In the end, Plue left so they woke me up, at 3 in the morning to be their dealer. So for two hours I was playing Monopoly with my housemate and her crazy fire-breathing boyfriend and his blue flying cat in the living room.
"Levy, you look really out of it, what happened to you?" Erza asked as she joined Levy walking to school.
"Natsu, Happy and Lucy."
Erza nodded as if she understood what she said completely.
"Well, we should better head to class or we'll be late."
I was about to walk through the door of our classroom only to get shoved back by Erza. "Careful. You almost stepped over the trip wire-"
Lucy, however, didn't pay attention and walked right past them and tripped over the wire, getting green goo all over her school uniform.
Natsu groaned. "Look what you did, Lucy! Gray was supposed to fall for that!"
Gray walked in just as the bell rang. "Fall for what?"
He looked at Lucy, covered in goo, who was doing a technique on Natsu that she learned from the Edolas-Lucy.
Levy made her way to her seat which was behind Lucy, diagonal of Mirajane, left of Cana and right of Evergreen who was flirting with Lisanna and Mirajane's brother, Elfman. The seat behind me was empty.
Natsu sat in front of Lucy, but he turned around to hit her with little paper balls that he and Happy were making.
"Hey, did you know Gajeel came back to school? He's finally out of juvie." Mirajane whispered to Cana. She nodded.
"Gajeel?" I asked, twisting my body around. The teacher came in, though he didn't bother starting the lesson. He just sat down and dozed off.
"Professor Gildarts?" Lucy poked his face.
"He's out cold." she stated. Everyone cheered and went back to chatting.
"So anyways," Cana said, attracting my attention. "Gajeel Redfox, he was the one that beat a lot of people up when they accused him of stealing the boxing club's trophy.
"Dang." I murmured.
Mirajane nodded. "Yup. You might see him in the library a lot since he needs a tutor."
Wait. Tutor? Beat's up people?
Levy turned around as Erza decided to take control of the classroom and teach the lesson.
It couldn't be possible. THIS IS A DREAM! THIS IS A DREAM! THIS IS-"
"-NOT A DREAM!" I squeaked when I noticed the same man that saved me last night sitting on one of the chairs at the library, one leg at a ninety degree angle, the other stretched out under the table. He had both hands behind his hand, glancing at the people as they were walking by, checking out books with Lucy at the circulation desk. He didn't seem to notice me as I walked behind him.
"How long has he been here?" I asked Lucy, lifting part of the table top only to bring down a kids' finger when I crossed over.
"About fifteen minutes. Wait, are you his tutor?!"
I winced. "Yeah about that-"
She pushed me out there again. "Go! He looks like he's gonna murder the next person that's not you that walks through those doors!"
I pouted and pushed my red glasses up and huffed.
"So, um, why are you-ah!"
Gajeel stood up and flicked my forehead, "What the hell took you so long?!"
I whacked him in the face with my red book bag. "Shut up! I had cleaning duty with Erza and Cana after class was done!"
Gajeel merely muttered crude words under his breath and sat back down in his original postion.
He had the top 3 buttons of his white button up undone, revealing tan muscled skin. Over that he had a black v neck sweater with the insignia of our school, Fairy Tail Academy, on his heart. His sleeves were rolled up,
"Whatever. Just teach me." he jerked his chin to a pile of textbooks on the table.
"What's in it for me?" I crossed my arms, tilting my hips slightly. His eyes fell on my waist, then he sat down, yanked me down into a seat next to him. He hooked his fingers under my chair and pulled me close, his breath hot on my neck. "I can teach how to do things you've never dreamed of."
I pushed him away. "I think I'll pass."
He shrugged. "So tell me what the hell 'x' and 'y' is in this problem? Are they trying to decide on what gender a baby is going to be or something?"
I slapped my palm to my forehead. This was going to take a while.
25 minutes into the tutoring session, we decided that we both needed a break. Gajeel went to get a drink at the water fountain while I got snacks from the vending machine. He didn't seem like one to have Chex Mix, so I just got him Cheetos since the Cheetahs on their had sunglasses.
"LEVY!"
"LEVY!"
My head snapped up as I bent to get the snacks. I knew those voices. Jet and Droy.
Jet stepped close to me, "So have you realized that you're going with me to the dance?"
"Don't be ridiculous, Jet, Levy is going with me!"
"Both of you, stop it! I'm not going with either of you!"
They both seemed surprised and shocked. "Wait, so you already have a date?"
"Well, I'm n-not e-even sure i-if I'm-" I stammered.
A heavy arm rested on top of my head, "Yeah, and her date is me."
I turned my head a bit to see Gajeel smirking at Jet and Droy.
"WHAT?!" They both yelled. "Levy why didn't you tell us!"
"Uh, well, I-I-I don't know!"
Gajeel silenced them with a murderous glare. "Don't pressure my woman."
My face flamed. HIS WOMAN...AGAIN?
Gajeel steered me away from them and back to the library.
He handed me Black Tea and he began drinking Pepsi.
"How did you-?"
He shrugged. "You seemed like one of those girls."
I smiled.
He noticed the small bags I hand in my hand. "Are those Cheetos?"
I nodded, holding it out.
Gajeel gave me a wicked grin as we sat down.
"Feed it to me."
"W-what?"
"You heard me. This is the start of YOUR lesson now. Feed. Me."
I sighed. "Fine."
I sipped on my Black Tea, then opened the bag of Cheetos and Chex Mix."
He snatched the Chex Mix bag, pulling out one. He held it up to my mouth. "Eat."
I glared at him. "You can't make me."
His hand never wavered when I tried moving my head. Exhausted, I gave in and ate it,making sure that I bit his finger. But, Unfortunately for me, he turned his finger into iron. Thank god I didn't bite down hard.
He laughed when I reeled back talking a gulp of my black tea.
"That," I said, setting down my tea. "was not funny."
I grabbed a cheetoh and shoved it in his mouth, he ate it in had it in his stomach in under five seconds. I pulled back, but his hand shot out and grabbed my wrist, pulling my fingers back. He put one of my fingers in his mouth, suckling gently. His tongue felt rough, like a cat's. Thankfully he didn't have any piercings. He cleaned the other two fingers of cheesy powder.
"I gotta get all of it. No wasting." He winked at me.
I blushed, holding my hand close to me.
Then we went back to the problems. Thankfully I knew how to write with both hands since my right hand was trembling.
He pulled me onto his lap, wrapping his arms around me me with his head on my shoulder. I explained how to solve the next few problems, so all he had to do was apply the method to the problem.
Gajeel used my panda bear pencil while I was reading a book about different techniques to take down a person. She would have asked Lucy, but she was always busy with Natsu and Happy.
"Oy, Levy, I don't know how to solve this one."
I ignored him and continued reading.
"Levy."
Ignore.
"LEVY."
Ignore.
"LEVY!"
I jumped up as he yelled at me. He seemed really frustrated and angry.
Annoyed that I couldn't read my book in peace, I snatched the pencil from him and solved all of the problems under five minutes.
I dropped the pencil and moved to get out of the library, but he didn't budge.
"Gajeel-move."
He ignored me.
Unlike him, I wasn't going to be childish about this.
I wrote Iron with my magic pen and a huge chunk of iron that formed the letter N.
It dropped down into his lap. He winced, but then smiled widely, like a kid who just got free candy. Then he did the unthinkable.
HE ATE THE IRON!
He just chomped on the "R", eating it like how Natsu eats fire.
"What. The. Hell?" I whispered, watching him chow down on the iron.
Once he was done, he pulled me into his lap, nuzzling my neck. "Thanks for the meal, Shrimp, even if you were trying to kill me."
His tongue sneaked out and took a long lick at my neck.
The weird noise came from me again and I arched in his arms. He bit down on my neck, laving the bruised spot with his tongue. "You're mine," he whispered fiercely, kissing my temple.
Gajeel seemed pleased with himself. He stood up and set me down, patting my head. "Bye, Shrimp. Same time tomorrow?"
I was too busy blushing to answer.
