Chapter 4 Minerva knows best

(Levy P.O.V.)

"This is it! This is a VERY big day, Erza!", I squeal in excitement. "I'm finally gonna do it. I'm gonna ask her!" I'm so excited to see the floating lights. I've dreamed about them for my ENTIRE life. I can't believe I am turning 18 TOMORROW! EEKS! I think to myself.

"Levy!" I gasp. Minerva's back!

"It's time!" I tell Erza. She straightens up and gives me a confident look. "I know, I know, come on, don't let her see you." For some unknown reason, Minerva won't let me have any animal friends. I always wondered why. Oh well.

"Levy, I'm not getting any younger down here!" She yells.

Yea, yea, I know. -_- I think to myself. "Coming, Minerva!" I yell back. I rush to the window and drop my hair to the ground of the 50 ft or so tower. She grabs part of my hair and once she is secure, I start pulling. despite my height, this is a good workout. I think to myself positively. Once she is up by the window, she steps on the sill where I retract my hair.

"Hi! Welcome home, Minerva!" I greet her with a warm smile. "Uh, Levy! How you manage to do that EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. without fail! It looks absolutely EXHAUSTING, hon." she says sarcastically. "Oh, it's nothing." I say exasperated. "Then I don't know why it took you so long! Erg, oh-ho-ho-ho, darling, I'm just teasing." she says while pinching my cheek. I laugh back nervously while thinking, Gee, maybe the reason why it took so god damn long was because I was lifting your fat ass.

"Alright, so, Minerva, as you know tomorrow is a very big da-" I start saying but she interrupted me. RUDE MUCH. I think to myself.

"Levy, look in the mirror." she instructs me. "You know what I see? I see a strong, confident, GORGEOUS young woman." I think she was talking about me, but then she continues, "Oh look you're here too. Ma-ha-ha-ha, I'm just teasing! Stop taking everything so seriously, ugh." Gee, I would if you would stop LEADING ME ON DAMMIT! I shriek in my head.

"Okay, so, Minerva, as I was saying, tomorrow-" I try again, but she interrupts me yet again. "Levy, Minerva's feeling a little run-down. Would you sing for me, sweety? That'll do." she requests. "Of course, Minerva." I reply through gritted teeth. While setting up, I think to myself, She taught me manners, but who TAUGHT HER manners!?

I wanted to get to my request as soon as possible, so I zoomed to get the essential stuff needed: a hair brush, a chair, and my hair, of course. I push Minerva into the chair and hand her part of my EXTREMELY long hair and start speed-singing through the incantation.

"Flower, gleam and glow; Let your power shine; Make the clock reverse."

"Wait!" she tries to stop me but I continue.

"Bring back what once was mine."

"WAIT!" she shrieks, as my hair starts glowing.

"Heal what has been hurt; Change the fate's design." When the glow went toward her, she brushes my hair as fast as she could. Good that will teach you to interrupt me. I smirked inwardly.

"Save what has been lost; Bring back what once was mine." I finished singing.

"Levy!" Minerva scolded me.

"So, Minerva, earlier I was saying that tomorrow's a pretty big day and you didn't really respond, so I'm just gonna tell you, it's my BIRTHDAY!" I explain as quickly as I can before she interrupts me again. "Uh, tada!"

She looks at me for a second before saying, "No, no, no, can't be. I distinctly remember: your birthday was last year." Apparently she didn't get it. "That's the funny thing about birthdays-they're kinda an annual thing!" I tell her with confidence.

I sigh before saying, "Minerva, I'm turning 18, and I wanted to ask, uh, what I REALLY want for this birthday... Actually what I really wanted every year on my birthday.." I muttered the last part.

"Okay, Levy, PLEASE, stop with the muttering." she interrupts me. (A/N: Apparently she just loves interrupting our heroine. -_-) "You KNOW how I feel about the muttering-blah-blah-blah-blah, it's EXTREMELY annoying, I'm just teasing, you're adorable, I love you so much, sweety. Ugh."

In the background, I see Erza telling me to go on. "Ugh, I want to see the floating lights." I finally admit. "Uh-huh. What?" she says confused. "Oh. Well, I was hoping you would take me to see the floating lights." I say while blushing.

"Oo. You mean the stars." she says while drinking her Emerald tea. (A/N: I felt like she needed a drink since she's dealing with Levy. *shrugs*) "That's the thing." I interject. I use my hair to pull a lever in the ceiling that opens a hatch letting more light in. It shows a painting of stars that I had for a few years.

"I've charted stars and they're ALWAYS constant-but these-," I pull the curtain covering the painting I drew while waiting for Miss Fat Ass,"they appear every year on my birthday, Minerva-ONLY on my birthday. And I can't help but feel like they're...they're meant for me." I continue with longing in my voice. I straighten myself up and face her saying, "I need to see them, Minerva, and NOT just from my window. In PERSON. I have to know what they are." I say with confidence.

She gets up and walks to the window while saying, "You want to go outside? Why, Levy!" She closes the shutters.

"Look at you, as fragile as a flower; Still a little sapling, just a sprout." she sings while spinning me around and patting my head. "You know why we stay up in this tower!" she belts out. "I know but.." I try saying more but she interrupts me. "That's right, to keep you safe and sound, dear." she sings while bringing part of my hair up to her face. (A/N: stalker much *shudders*)

She then goes to the stain glass windows and closes the curtain while dramatically singing, "Guess I always knew this day was coming.

"Knew that soon you'd want to leave the nest. Soon but not yet." "But-" "Shh! Trust me pet. Minerva- knows best." Suddenly the lights go out. DAMMIT! She KNOWS I hate the dark. I curse in my mind.

I light a candle and try to look for that little witch while she sings her little song, "Minerva knows best, Listen to Minerva, It's a scary world out there." I turn around to see her making a scary face that scared the shit out of me.

"Minerva knows best, one way or another something will go wrong, I swear!" Something pulls my hair, I try to get it back, but it releases me that I stumble and fall. Minerva somehow catches me, though.

"Ruffians, thugs, poison ivy, quicksand, cannibals and snakes...*gasp* The plague!" "No!" "Yes!" "But-" Minerva makes shadow puppets of the mentioned which scare me, and when I heard the plague, I was TERRIFIED!

"Also large bugs, men with pointy teeth, and stop, no more, you'll just upset me!" A mop hits me in the back of my head.

"Minerva's right here, Minerva will protect you, Honey here's what I suggest, Skip the drama, stay with Minerva, Minerva-knows best! Ah, hahahaha..." I covered my body with my long hair when she picked me up. I went to hug her when I realized it was a dummy. She later makes a grand entrance with the candles on the steps, but she snuffs them out with a twirl of her cape.

I tried to relight the candles, but she snuffs them out while singing, "Minerva knows best, take it from your sister, on your own, you won't survive." I walk in front of the mirror to see my reflection and see Minerva maneuvering it while singing, "Sloppy, underdressed, immature, clumsy, PLEASE, they'll eat you up alive-" I trip over my hair and she had the NERVE to wrap me up in said hair like a burrito.

She continues to sing while touching me, "Gullible, naïve, positively grubby, ditzy and a bit well, hmm vague. Plus, I believe, getting kinda chubby, I'm just saying 'cause I wuv you. Minerva understands, Minerva's here to help you, all I have is one REQUEST!" I was left in the dark when I see her standing in a spotlight. I sighed in relief and run to her so I can hug her.

"Levy." she says. "Yes?" I ask. She gives me a dark look before saying, "Don't ever ask to leave this tower again." I gulped and hesitantly said, "Yes, Minerva." " Uh, I love you very much, dear." she says with adoration. I reply, "I love you more." "I love you most." She the kisses my forehead before singing, "Don't forget it, you'll regret it. Minerva knows best."

Later, I lower her down to the ground outside the tower. She yells up to me, "Levy! I'll see you in a bit my flower." I reply by saying, "Oh don't worry, I'll be here."

Erza shows up beside me while I softly sing to myself with confidence, "I've got my sister's love, I shouldn't ask for more. I've got so many things, I should be thankful for. Yes I have everything- except a door." I look out into the horizon, thinking out loud, "Perhaps it's better that I stay in, but tell me when will my life begin?" I sigh telling Erza, "I wish something-or SOMEONE-will take me away from this prison, Erza."

To be continued...

Wendy: WOW! That was a good chapter! *Excited*
Lily: And long too. But I am curious about something. Why did you make Minerva Levy's sister instead of her mother?
Me: Because when Levy was 10, Minerva 'told' her to call her by her first name.

Levy: Well either way, I LOVED IT!

Gajeel: Tch. Figured you would, shrimp. *turns to me* So when will there be any action in this sappy story?
Levy: GAJEEL!
Gajeel: *Ignores Levy*

Me: There will be action in the next chapter. I am happy to see that you are out of the corner, Gajeel.

Gajeel: Well, the shrimp promised to make me a BIG dinner after this.

Me and Mira: KAWAII!
Me: Mira, when did you get here? *surprised*

Mira: I just got here when I heard about a romantic dinner featuring Gajeel and Levy. *fangirl squeal*
Everyone but Mira: *sweatdrops* Okay...

Me: Anyways, Levy would you like to do the honors.

Levy: Of course. *turns to invisible audience* Don't forget to review and fav/follow the story, Minna!

Everyone: SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
