"I still can't believe a person like you, would take me to such a beautiful place like this", I awed as I took in the beautiful scenery of the hills and houses below us.
"What's that supposed to mean?!", Gajeel retorted as he crossed his arms.
"Well…..to be honest you don't look like the romantic typ-
"I just wanted to show you my favorite spot! Ok! I'm not being romantic or mushy! I…..I-I was just bored that's all!"
'I still can't understand you. I can't tell if you're a kind person or a mean person'
"So why is this your favorite spot?", I asked as I rested my head on the back of his monster truck. He was nice enough to lay a warm blanket on the back of the cold metallic truck. It made it feel more comforting and relaxing.
Gajeel laid down next to me as well, placing his two big arms behind his head. He looked up at the fading moon, and took in a deep breath.
"Because…..it just is!"
I rolled over and poked his cheek.
"Come on! There has to be a reason"
He averted his gaze, "I don't need to have a reason"
"Please! Tell me!"
'I need to see if he actually has a soft side! Everyone else thinks of Gajeel as a delinquent or a cold blooded person. But I feel like deep down inside he's actually a kind and caring person'
"Why do I have to tell you?", he cocked an eyebrow.
"Because I missed the dance to come all the way here with you! The least you could do is tell me why you like this place!"
He looked me in the eyes, then back at the moon.
His eyes reflected the shine of the glowing moon, making it seem as if Gajeel's eyes were also glowing.
"This place just makes me feel calm, and worry free. It separates me from the scolding world. This is the only place where I'm not judged by other people, or irritated by them. I guess you could call it my safe spot", his eyes never left the moon. It was amazing seeing him so relaxed and calm, especially in front of me.
'Gajeel….'
He averted his gaze from the moon and into my eyes.
"Plus the sunrise looks really cool from here, gihi!", he closed eyes and did his toothy grin smile. That was the second time I actually saw him smile like that.
'I can't believe he did it again…..I thought I would never see that wonderful smile again'
I smiled back as I stared back at the dimmed stars above us.
"Seeing you smile like that, reminds me of the day we first met"
"Don't remind me!"
A frown appeared on my lips, "Why not?"
Gajeel covered his face with both of his hands.
"Because…..you're going to make me feel those disgusting feelings like happiness"
"So you're happy that we met?"
"..."
The sound of crickets and blowing leaves surfaced as I waited for his response. It felt like an eternity.
'Was it too soon to ask that? Aw great! Nice going me! Now I've totally messed up the perfect atmosphere!'
"..."
"..."
"...Well….you're not as bad as the others, so yeah I like you Shrimp", he mumbled the last part as he covered his face with his arms, but I heard it clearly.
A smile traced my lips as the bright orange sun started to rise from the horizon, illuminating the beautiful area around us.
The warmth from the beautiful sun melted my heart and my eyes. It was just so beautiful to look at. I couldn't avert my gaze from it.
"...You were right Gajeel", I whispered still dumbstruck from the sun's beauty.
"The sunrise….is beautiful…."
"...Yeah…..just like…...you", he responded slowly, making my heart stop.
"W-W-What did y-you say?", I barely whispered, as I felt my heart thump really hard in my chest.
"N-Nothin! I-I meant that the sun was beautiful! Not….just forget it ok!", his face turned bright red as he pouted.
His pout and the way he was acting made me want to tease him more.
"So you think I'm beautiful? Huh?"
"I-I never said that!"
"Yes you did! I heard it loud and clear!"
"...Whatever! A shrimp like you isn't beautiful!", he crossed his arms and turned away from me.
"Oh really?! The why is your face red?!"
"Because! The sunrise gave me sunburn!"
"That doesn't even make any sense!"
"Why do you even care if I think you're beautiful?!", he growled
'Yeah, why do I care?'
"I….."
'Hearing him call me that made my heart do backflips….but why?!'
"I don't! It's just you never ever give me compliments! So hearing you say that shocked me that's all!", I formed my own pout as I turned my gaze back at the sun.
'I guess it's because I've….'
"Whatever, I guess I should probably drive you home now since it's 6 am", Gajeel said as he pulled out his phone and hopped of the back of the truck.
"6 am?! My mom's going to kill me!"
'Fallen in love with him….'

"Phew! I thought I was never going to find a place that sells strawberry cheesecake at this time of night!", Jellal sighed as he slumped on one of the diner's booths.
I followed his lead, but instead of slumping down, I carefully sat down.
After our last dance, Jellal looked all over town, to find some sort of place that sold cheesecake. It was actually pretty funny seeing him struggling, but I thought it was cute, because he really cared for me. Or else he wouldn't have spent 30 minutes trying to find a restaurant that served cheesecake just for me.
But after all of that traveling, he finally found a small beautiful family diner.
"But in the end we did, so thank you Jellal", I smiled at him as one of the waitresses went up to our table.
"Aww would you look at that! A high school couple going on a late night date! You guys are just too cute!", the waitress gushed as she pinched my red cheeks.
"U-Uh….how did you know we were on a date?", the now flustered Jellal stuttered as his face got redder and redder.
The waitress just smiled at him, "Well for one, you both are wearing fancy clothes. And second of all you both look like a perfect couple, so I just assumed you were"
'...She has some really good observation skills! This woman is amazing!'
"I'm sorry my inner shipper got out, so anyways what can I get you guys to eat?", she took out her little notepad and pen.
Jellal and I took another glance at the menu.
'It's obvious that I'm going to order a slice of cheesecake, but what is Jellal going to order?'
"Two slices of strawberry cheesecakes please!", Jellal announced as he raised up two fingers to the waitress.
"Is that going to be for the both of you?", the waitress questioned the both of us.
"Yup!"
"Aww! That's so adorable! I'll tell you what since it's already really late, and we barely have any customers right now, I'll throw in a large milkshake for the both of you, what do you say?"
"That's really kind of you! Thank you!", Jellal and I both thanked the waitress as she finished scribbling on her notepad.
"No problem! Anything for my favorite ship!"
The waitress put her notepad away and walked behind the kitchen doors, leaving Me and Jellal alone with the music coming from the jukebox in the corner.
"I can't believe that she can act really cheerful at this time of night, if I was her I would've already been sleepy and cranky by now", Jellal yawned as he placed both of his arms behind his head.
"Yeah, she's really something else"
"So did you like the dance, Ms. Scarlet?"
"Please….call me Mrs. Fernandes"
Jellal choked on his own saliva after he heard me say his name. A deep red blush covered his whole face as he tried to recompose himself.
"D-Don't say t-that stuff!"
"Why not?", I smirked at his timid face.
"I don't know! Just don't!"
"So we're not going to get married?"
"Where did this come from?!"
"I don't know, I'm just trying to make small talk"
"Well that isn't small talk!"
"I'm sorry", I giggled at his misfortune, which in return made him giggle back.
"Only you my Queen, can make me laugh like that", he smiled as he rested his head on the table.
"And only you my King, can buy me delicious strawberry cheesecake"
A/N: I guess it was Gajevy and Jerza time to shine XD
I'm going to let you all in on a little secret. At first this was supposed to be a story with just pure Nalu, but I got so many other ships involved that I decided to just add them all into the story.
I also added a lot of comedy in this story even though one of the genres is drama. Now some of you may be asking, where's the drama? All I can say is…..the drama is not completely gone ;)
