Gajeel wakes up, but doesn't dare move. Levy was sleeping beside him. Her body cuddling up to his chest. She looks almost...peaceful. He looks over at the clock on the wall, they would miss the train unless they get up now. However, after one more look at the blue ball of bed head beside him. He decides that staying another night, might not be so bad.
After another hour of silently watching The Solid Script Mage sleep. She finally starts to stir in her sleep. She sits up before finally opening her eyes.
"Gajeel?" Levy says. Tears filling her eyes. She throws herself down onto the man beside her. Hugging him tight. "Thank you so much Gajeel!" She cries.
"Oi! Shrimp calm down!" Gajeel demands.
"That's the first time in many months I've only had that dream twice Gajeel!" She says sitting up, she struggles to wipe away her water works.
"Just wait till tonight!" Gajeel says smirking.
"What are you talking about Gajeel?" Levy asks confused.
"We missed the train." He answers. The girl quickly throws her head around and looks at the clock.
"Why didn't you wake me!?" She shouts, jumping from the tall bed.
"Cause ya needed the sleep!" Gajeel calls. Levy rushes to the bathroom. She comes back out several minutes later, her hair in a messy ponytail. She grabs a bag from beside the bed next to Gajeel, and walks towards the large desk on the opposite side of the room.
"Shrimp... Does your ass say 'Eat Cake'?" Gajeel asks. On the back of Levy's orange shorts, these words were written.
"Shut up, you know that I forgot sleep clothes." Levy huffs. She continues to the desk and sits down. She lays several pages and books across the table.
"What you doing now?" He says as he gets up from the bed.
"I was supposed to translate this stuff on the train ride back but I can just do it now."
"Have fun. I'm gonna go shower then walk around the town."
"Good bye Gajeel!" Levy calls as he leaves the room.
"Bye Shrimp."
Gajeel finishes his trip around the town, hit a bar for a quick drink, not that it could affect him that much, and was now making his way back to the hotel. The girl at the front desk smirking at him, while the boy gives him a thumbs up. Confusing the dragon slayer. He finally realizes they must have seen him leave Levy's room. He walks to his room and showers again. Then changes into his sleep cloths, even though his 'sleep cloths' were only sweatpants. Then walks to Levy's room and knocks on the door.
"It's open." Levy calls from inside the room. Gajeel walks in and sees Levy in the same spot he left her, she was still wearing the same clothes but Gajeel could tell by her scent that she had taken a shower. She was sitting in the large chair with her legs folded up like a child. "How was your day?" She asks never looking up.
"Boring, there's nothin' to do in this town." Gajeel grumbles. He walks over to Levy. She was working on a different translation job. "How many of these things did ya bring?" Gajeel asks.
"Doranbolt dropped by and asked me to do some work for him. He scared me half to death with his teleportation, but he always pays well so I don't mind." Levy says as she stares down at the paper. Her hands flying quickly across the page. Beautiful cursive laying in her pens wake.
"Ya almost finished?" Gajeel asks.
"Just...a...bout...done!" Levy says as she drops her pencil and hits a lacrama on the corner of the desk. Doranbolt suddenly appears in the room, dressed in his Magic Council attire.
"Hello Mrs. McGarden, as well as Mr. Redfox I see." He says as he spots Gajeel. He turns back to Levy. "Shall I assume you finished your work?" He asks. Levy was gathering all the papers and staking them up neatly.
"Yes sir I just finished." She says as she continues to lean over the desk. Gajeel standing beside the large piece of furniture.
"Mrs. McGarden, does your butt say 'Eat Cake?'" Doranbolt asks. Gajeel instantly felt the need to punch him in the face. Which is completely hypocritical because he pointed it out as well.
"Uhm...I forgot sleep cloths and had to borrow these from the girl at the front desk." Levy says blushing deeply. Turning and holding out the papers.
"I should have assumed something like that. Thank you for your service Mrs. McGarden." He answers taking the papers. "Mr. Redfox. I humbly ask you be gentle with Mrs. McGarden. She is a big help to the Magic Council." Doranbolt says before disappearing.
"Oi!" Gajeel shouts at the man who was no longer present.
"Sorry Gajeel." Levy says quietly.
"Ya ready for bed?"
"I was planning on reading some bef-" Levy was cut off by Gajeel. He throws her over his shoulder in one swift motion.
"To bad! I'm tired so let's go!" Gajeel shouts.
"P-put me down you idiot!" Levy cries, hitting her hands on his back.
"Hey Shrimp! Don't anger me! My face is pretty close to my face to that 'cake' of yours and I'm not scared to take a bite!" He calls, forming a deep laugh, shaking Levy's body.
"Uhg! Gajeel!" She shouts. He throws her down on the bed, then lays down next to her. They both find their way under the covers. Gajeel watches Levy's face. Her eyes wouldn't look at his. They were staring at something else.
"Gajeel?" She whispers.
"Mhm?" He sounds harshly. She looks into his red eyes then quickly then away. She pulls her head down underneath the blankets that surround them.
"Never mind. It's childish." The bluenette says slightly muffled.
"Shrimp spill it." Gajeel states coldly.
"I-I just wanted to asks silly question, it was nothing." Levy murmurs.
"You can ask a question if I can." Gajeel states. Levy pokes her head out from under the covers like a child. Her eyes wide with curiosity.
"Can...can I touch your piercings?" Levy mumbles quietly. Gajeel realizes that she had been staring at the three metal studs on his arm. He slowly grabs her hand and pulls it to his face. Leading her to the iron piece closes to his mouth. She slowly drags her finger around the item. "I-it's warm." She whispers.
"Did you expect em to be cold?" Gajeel asks. Forcing Levy to pull her hand back.
"I-I don't know." Levy says. She reaches for the ones decorating the area where his eyebrows should be, but stops. She waits for an approving nod from him.
"Can you take them out?"
"It'd hurt like hell. They are a part of my skin now. They even feel like skin when you touch em." Levy's hand flies back for a second time. She looks at him like she was caught with her hand in the cookie jar. A slight blush forming on her cheeks.
"My turn now." He says smirking. "Why is your skin always cold?" Gajeel asks. He grabs her hand and pulls her knuckles to his cheek. They felt like ice to the touch.
"Believe it or not, but I'm not originally from Magnolia." She says with a smirk. Most of the guild members weren't original from Magnolia. "I was originally from a place near Isvan, the land where Ultear was from. Mine was an independent land named Kípo Págo, it's known as the coldest place in Fiore." Levy says with a small smile. Gajeel could tell that she didn't like talking about her homeland. He quickly releases her hand and pulls her into his chest.
"Goodnight Shrimp."
"Goodnight Gajeel." She says. They both soon fall asleep.
The next morning Gajeel woke up to the sound of crying. He opens his eyes to see Levy sitting up in the bed.
"Shrimp what's wrong!?" He asks panicked. She turns around and around with tears in her eyes, but a smile on her face.
"I didn't have the dream Gajeel!" She sobs. "This is the first time in years."
"Shr-"
"I'm sorry if I'm acting childish, but I'm just so happy!" She calls.
"Shrim-"
"Thank you Gajeel!"
"Shrimp!" Levy's attention turns to his words. "Shrimp, I know that you are happy, but we better hurry if you want to catch the train." Gajeel says seriously. A smile forms across her face as she jumps from the bed, rushing to the bathroom. "And ask the front desk girly if you can keep those shorts!"
I know that it is a lot shorter, I don't know if I should say sorry our your welcome.
I will continue upon request. If not then this is the end and goodbye!
I hope you enjoyed!
