Hey Nella, why are you uploading a new story when you still have four incomplete ones going? Because I'm an idiot that's why. Jheeeeze. Okay, so basically, because A Dragon's Instinct to Protect (LaLu) and The Benefits of Secrecy (GraLu) are both side stories, I don't really have to update them as much as possible. Also, I have a bad case of writer's block on both Strength of a Celestial Mage (Laxus x Lucy x Mystogan) and Dragonheart (LaLu, GraLu and RoLu), which means I've been working on this story rather than the other two. This story was actually written before both Dragonheart and Strength of a Celestial Mage, so I've already got a few chapters for that written, which gives me time to write on SoaCM and DH.
Please don't get mad, like seriously. I promise I will complete all my stories, somehow. Hopefully this summer actually. SoaCM is nearing its end which will allow me to focus on this one and Dragonheart more. Anyway, enjoy!
I don't own Fairy Tail, only the OCs and plot!
An Office Full of Firsts
Lucy entered her precious guild, grinning and greeting everyone as she did so. Mira welcomed her cheerily, placing down a strawberry smoothie in front of her as she wiped down a few beer mugs. Lucy beamed in thanks before sipping at her milkshake.
"How are you today Lucy? You seem cheery, did you have a good night with Laxus?" Mira questioned, causing Lucy to blush brightly before shaking her head
"Ehhh? What are you talking about? Laxus left for a job with the Thunder Legion yesterday evening" Lucy replied
"Oh? I forgot about that, come to think about it, I was wondering why Evergreen and Freed weren't around yesterday" Mira replied, a thoughtful look on her face
"Yeah, it seemed like a simple enough mission, it wasn't S Class or anything… I wonder why Laxus took the job. Either way, he'll be back today," Lucy thought, biting her lip
"Hmmmm… I don't know. OH! I forgot to mention, Master wanted you upstairs as soon as you entered. Something about paperwork and files" Mira informed causing Lucy to nod as she left to climb the stairs
"Master Makarov?" Lucy questioned, knocking on the guild master's door
"Lucy! Come in my dear, there's no need for you to knock" Makarov said, grinning as Lucy sweat dropped
The last time she had entered his office without knocking, she had caught him otherwise preoccupied. That had been embarrassing for her; the master hadn't noticed he'd been caught, as he was so engrossed in his extra curricular activities.
"I think I'll just knock aha" Lucy replied, scratching her head
"Oh? Okay. Anyway, I know that my brat has gone off on a mission, so I don't have any help today, would you mind doing some paperwork? I hate to ask this of you, but you always help Laxus and there's no one else I can trust with these secrets. Well actually, there's Erza or Mira but they haven't been brought up to handle finances and legal documents like you have" Makarov said causing Lucy to grin
"Yeah sure! I don't mind, to be honest, I rather enjoy it. I find it relaxing, which is why I have no problem helping Laxus. I'll get started on it straight away" Lucy said as she exited.
She walked into Laxus' office, sending a bit of her magical energy into the Lacrima lock that was installed on all office doors in order to keep the documents secure. Thankfully, Laxus had updated the lacrima's database to accept her magic; otherwise she was sure she'd have been paralysed by the stun spell.
She sat down in Laxus' massive chair, grinning as she flicked through his papers before reaching into his drawer for a pen. She grinned, nostalgia consuming her. She'd been in this very office with him so many times that it had become a safe haven for her.
Lucy thought back to the first time she had been asked to help Laxus with his paperwork, smiling softly at the fond memory. After all, it was the reason that they were together now.
*Flashback*
"Hey Lucy, are you busy?" Mira questioned, knowing full well that said Celestial Mage wasn't busy
"Hmmm? No, I'm free for the next two weeks actually" Lucy replied, causing Mira to frown
"Oh, what about going on a mission with Natsu?" Mira questioned, looking around for the dragon slayer
"He's on a fishing trip with Meredy" Lucy replied nonchalantly, causing Mira's eyes to sparkle
"Oh?" She replied, fishing for details
"Yeah. Who knew Meredy liked to fish? Happy certainly loves it, and it's a load of my plate because now he always asks her for fish instead of me. Thank Mavis; I was sure I was going to go bankrupt from the expensive fish Happy likes. Besides, Natsu loves that he finally has a fishing buddy besides Happy" Lucy replied
"They do make a cute pair don't they? Natsu and Meredy" Mira giggled
"Hmmm? Oh yeah, that is, if Natsu mans up and asks Mimi to make it official" Lucy replied, smiling at the thought of her two friends finally being happy.
"So what about Erza and Jellal?" Mira questioned.
Other than Bisca and Alzack, her and Freed and Elfman and Evergreen, there were no other couples besides those in Team Natsu, and with all the missions they'd been on lately, she'd hardly had enough time to get the latest gossip. Well… there was Gajeel and Levy, but she was sure Levy would die of embarrassment the next time she bought that up.
"Erza and Jellal are on an S Class together, they were specifically chosen by the client and so they won't be back for a while either" Lucy replied, twirling the straw between her fingers
"Gray and Cana? How are they doing?" Mira continued interrogating
"Ehhh, they're okay. Gray took Cana to Akane for the week, thought I'm sure it's only because Gildarts is back. But it's still cute" Lucy said, smiling for her brother like figure
"I was surprised with that couple actually, I wouldn't have thought it would have been them together" Mira replied
"I wasn't. Cana has liked Gray for years; he was one of her first friends here. I guess that friendship just developed into something more. He was one of the reasons she stayed despite telling herself she'd leave if she couldn't become an S Class. Though, I'm surprised she asked him out rather than the opposite" Lucy stated causing Mira to nod
'How did I not know that before?' Mira questioned herself
"And before you ask, Wendy and Carla are currently at a magic based medical institute in Lilia. Apparently there are some magical spells she could learn to better her healing skills. Also, there's a Sky Dragon Slayer there who promised to teach her some more spells" Lucy informed
"Oh? I didn't know there was another Sky Dragon Slayer" Mira stated
"Ahhhh, there isn't. He's old so he can't practice his magic anymore, but he was more than happy to pass on some of his wisdom and spells" Lucy replied with a sigh
"So it seems you really don't have anything to do for the new two weeks. I'm sorry Lucy, I wish I could be more helpful" Mira replied apologetically
"It's okay Mira, I'm sure I'll find something to do with my time" Lucy replied, grinning brightly
"OH! I know! You can help me with the bar. How does that sound?" Mira offered, causing Lucy to grin
"Sure!" Lucy responded, Mira handed the mage a large plate
"Here, take this up to Laxus, I was supposed to get it to him earlier but I guess I got distracted" Mira said sheepishly
"It's okay" Lucy giggled as she picked up the plate before walking upstairs
"Laxus? It's Lucy… I have your lunch" Lucy said timidly as she walked into the large office
"Oh, just place it down there" Laxus motioned, causing Lucy to nod as she placed it down before tutting at the mess on his desk
"What is it?" Laxus questioned, finally turning his gaze to her
"How do you work like this? Your desk is a mess" Lucy berated, causing Laxus' eyebrows to rise
"Because you know how to fill out and organise legal documents and finances?" Laxus questioned with a snort
"Actually, I do" Lucy replied, frowning at him as she placed a hand on her hips
"Really? Tell me, why does the Princess know that?" He questioned, learning back in his chair
"I was raised to be the wife of a business man, which surely enough, meant taking care of the paperwork as well as looking like a pretty piece of eye candy" Lucy snorted at her last remark
"I didn't know" Laxus responded, slightly impressed
"Yeah, it was the only I looked forward to learning everyday. I kind of miss it actually" Lucy said, the last part mainly to herself.
"Then how would you like to help me? I hate it myself, but if I want to be the future guild master, I have to learn" Laxus replied, beckoning to one of the chairs by his desk
"As a matter of fact, I think I'll take you up on that offer" Lucy said, smiling as she left the office to inform Mira that she was going to be busy for the next two weeks. The demon matchmaker though, was extremely pleased with the new development in Lucy's life.
"So, how about we get started?" Lucy said, grinning as she shuffled around his office, quickly organising things into piles. Laxus watched in amusement and awe as she quickly cleared his table up
"You know you can't tell anyone about what you read or file right?" Laxus questioned, staring at her as she filled out and filed some paperwork
"Yeah, I'm aware" Lucy replied, biting her lip as she read the document in front of her.
Laxus nodded before turning to his own pile of paperwork. He watched her from the corner of his eye, a look of bewilderment on his face at the joy on hers. He couldn't believe that anyone would find something such as boring old paperwork fun.
"You know, I think this could be the start of a beautiful friendship," Laxus said after a few hours, breaking the comfortable silence between them. The stack of paperwork had been greatly reduced. Lucy beamed at the older man; she hadn't felt so relaxed in years.
"You know what, I think it will" Lucy replied after a while, sending him a large smile.
*End of Flashback*
Lucy grinned at the memory, trying to imagine her life where she had refused his offer. She couldn't imagine it, mainly because she didn't want to. Besides, she was much more happier now.
After that, they did paperwork more often together. She continued her trip down memory lane, skipping to their first kiss, which had, funnily been in this very same room.
*Flashback*
"Oi Sparkles, where's the damn apology letter from your team regarding the town you destroyed on your latest mission" Laxus' voice boomed, looking at Lucy in question
"It's right by you, you stupid pylon" Lucy replied, throwing a pen at his head
"OI! What was that for Sparkles" Laxus questioned, glaring at her
"FOR CALLING ME SPARKLES, SPARKY" Lucy yelled, a tick appearing on her forehead
"Tch, whatever" Laxus responded, continuing on with his paperwork
The two continued working in silence, casually and comfortable next to each other. Without realising they scooted closer together working around each other effortlessly, completely in tune with each other.
"Why does your stupid team always have to destroy everything?!" Laxus finally yelled, annoyed with the amount of complaints he'd had to sort through about her team
"SHUT UP! MY TEAM ISN'T STUPID" Lucy yelled, her face close to his as she glared
"WELL MAYBE IF YOU TOLD YOUR STUPID BOYFRIEND NOT TO DESTROY EVERYTHING AND MAYBE CONTROL HIS DAMN FLAMES THEN THERE WOULDN'T BE SO MANY COMPLAINTS" Laxus screamed
"HE'S NOT MY BOYFRIEND SPARKY. HE'S JUST A FRIEND. ALSO, IT'S NOT LIKE YOU AND YOUR TEAM DON'T GO OVERBOARD SOMETIMES" Lucy yelled back
"WHAT! WE DON'T DESTROY NEARLY HALF AS MUCH AS YOU DO" Laxus defended
"SHUT UP! I'VE SEEN THE APOLOGY LETTERS AND COMPLAINTS, DESPITE YOU TRYING TO HIDE THEM. SO WHY DON'T YOU EXPLAIN THAT BEFORE YOU CALL MY TEAM-" Lucy yelled only to be cut short as Laxus' lips descended down onto hers
Lucy froze, unsure of what to do. Laxus pulled away quickly, a light, almost non-existent blush on his face as he tried to continue with his paperwork. Lucy continued staring in shock, wondering what had just happened
"What- What was that for?" Lucy asked as she finally gained back the ability to form a sentence
"I just did it to shut you up. Your yelling was giving me a headache" Laxus mumbled, however, Lucy noticed the slight flush on his cheeks, causing her to grin
"You wanted to kiss me," She stated finally, staring at him in triumph
"What makes you think that? Of course I didn't" Laxus mumbled out once again
"Hmm if you say so" Lucy replied, and the two continued working in silence
"You know… if you didn't want to kiss me again… I wouldn't mind" Lucy muttered, causing Laxus to stiffen, before turning to her, taking in the blush on her face before letting out a small chuckle
"Well, let's hope I don't want to kiss you sometime soon" Laxus replied, Lucy giggled before nodding, the two getting on with their paperwork, sitting a lot more closer than they were before.
*End of Flashback*
Lucy giggled as she went back to that memory. It was so silly, but it had marked the change in their relationship. She'd always believed that her first kiss was going to be something special. That her and her boyfriend were going to go on a lovely date, and complete all the clichés and then finally, he'd give her, her first kiss on her doorstep.
However, life doesn't always turn out to be full of clichés. Sometimes things happen out of the blue and completely unexpectedly. She never believed that her first kiss would be one to shut her up. But then again, she wouldn't have it any other way.
It was just so them.
*Flashback*
"Hey Laxus, how's the paperwork coming along?" Lucy questioned as she entered his office. They hadn't done some paperwork in a while, considering he'd been off on S Class missions and she on her own missions with her team.
"Hng" Laxus grunted, glaring at the stacks of paperwork beside him. Lucy giggled as she took her usual seat, getting started on her own stack.
"So, how was the mission? How much did you destroy this time?" Laxus questioned without looking up from the paper
"Actually, it went better than usual. Meredy and Jellal tagged along, so there were more of us. Meredy kept Natsu in check, thought I'm not sure how. Not even Erza or I could do that" Lucy replied
"Hmmm, sounds like he has a thing for her" Laxus replied, unsure as to why he was gossiping with her
"Yeah, I seriously wonder why they're not official yet. Natsu always glares at any guy who tries to flirt with her and I'm pretty sure that Meredy has used her magic to inflict pain onto the girls who even dare to look at him" Lucy said giggling at the thought of her two friends
"Natsu's probably too dense to realise what he's feeling" Laxus replied causing Lucy to growl as she slapped his head
"Shut up, he's not that bad" Lucy defended, trying to stick up for her best friend
"Tch whatever" Laxus muttered
"So, how was your last S Class?" Lucy questioned
"It was alright, nothing new" Laxus replied. Lucy nodded as the two fell into a silence again, working diligently for the next hour.
"Lucy" Laxus said, breaking the silence as he put his pen down
"Yeah?"
"Would you like to grab some dinner with me?" Laxus questioned, staring at her intently
"Like… a date?" Lucy questioned, blushing at the notion
"No." Laxus replied, and Lucy's shoulders fell slightly as she tried to hide her disappointment
"Not like a date. A date" Laxus said simply, causing Lucy to grin in response
"Can we do take away? I don't really feel like dressing up," Lucy questioned, cocking her head to the side
"It's our first date and you want to spend it in my office?" Laxus questioned, staring at her incredulously
"Well, why not?" Lucy questioned and Laxus chuckled before nodding
"Take away it is" He replied, moving to fetch a menu as well as the Communication Lacrima
*End of Flashback*
Lucy stopped what she was doing as she relished in the last memory. She stood up, calling out to Mira for some food before taking a seat on the couch. Now that she thought about it, her first time with him was on the couch. Again, not exactly romantic, but it didn't matter about setting. All that mattered was that it was him and her.
*Flashback – Smut*
Laxus pressed Lucy against the couch, his mouth on hers as he sucked on her bottom lip. Lucy groaned against him, pulling his body closer to her as their mouths battled for dominance. She gasped into his mouth as he moved one of his hands under her shirt, flitting against her ribs as she moaned into his mouth, allowing him to slide his tongue against hers.
Laxus grabbed under her thighs and flipped her onto the large couch, she groaned as he settled between her thighs, one of his hands moving up her thigh and to her hips as the other wrapped around her waist, pulling her up and closer to his body.
"Laxus" Lucy moaned, as he pulled his mouth away. He stared down at her; breathing deeply as he took in the sight of her flushed face. He growled at the sight before bending down and kissing his way down her jaw and towards her neck.
"Lucy, baby, you have to tell me now if you want me to stop, because once I start, there's no going back," Laxus muttered against her skin, nipping at the tender flesh
"Please don't stop. I want you Laxus, I want you to be my first" Lucy whispered, cupping his face in her hands
"You deserve something better than on a couch in my office for your first time" Laxus muttered as he tried getting off of her, only for her to wrap her legs around his waist
"All I deserve for my first time is you" Lucy muttered, stroking his face as she gave him a soft smile. Laxus growled as he captured his lips between hers once again before pulling away.
"I'll be as gentle as I can, but I can't promise anything," Laxus whispered as he nibbled on the outer shell of her ear, unbuttoning her shirt.
He watched as her breasts bounced out of the ridiculously tight shirt, he pulled her up, slipping the shirt off of her shoulder, placing light kisses along the bare skin before his hands trailed down to her skirt. He quickly pulled that off too, leaving her in her underwear.
He groaned at the sight of her underwear, it was a perfect paradox, the silk and lace revealing garments against the white colour that looked so pure against her creamy skin. He smirked before quickly taking off his own shirt and slack, leaving him in his tented black boxer shorts.
He brushed his lips against her cleavage, before moving to the valley between them, nuzzling the soft skin as he unclasped her bra, slipping it off her body. He let her go, watch as once again they bounced. He licked his lips, causing her to blush as she tried to hide them.
"You don't need to shy away from me, you're so beautiful" Laxus whispered, his hand trailing up her ribs before cupping one of her large breasts.
"So beautiful" he whispered once again, tweaking the nipple as she let out a soft mewl. He leaned down, taking the erect nipple in her mouth, sucking and nipping at the taut bud gently, earning more cries from his girlfriend
Once he was done playing with her nipples, he trailed kisses down her flat stomach, his tongue dipping into her navel, earning him a gasp. He grinned before running his nose down her body and towards her underwear.
Lucy blushed as his eyes met hers. He held her gaze as he licked her through her underwear. He grinned as her blush increased before he skilfully removed the underwear with his teeth.
Lucy closed her eyes as she took in the feel of his soft lips against her thighs, his hands running up to her knees as he parted her legs. He groaned at the sight of her shaved lips, licking his own lips. Lucy's back arched as he licked up and down her slit before twirling his tongue around her clit.
He let out a grin and blew on her wet folds, causing her eyes to widen as her hips bucked against him, waiting for him to give her more than that. He felt her buck against his face, causing him to lean forward and press his lips against her folds, softly kissing them.
She spread her legs wider for him, silently begging for more. He licked up her slit again, drawing her juices onto his tongue before swallowing, groaning at her taste, she was unbelievably sweet and tangy, almost a delicacy that he couldn't wait to devour.
Lucy's hands found themselves into Laxus' hair as he continued his torturously slow licks, moving his tongue up and down her slit. He gave a long, hard lick up her slit before moving back down and entering her, he licked and sucked at each and every crevice, groaning against her as he continued enjoying his feast. His groans caused her to let out a piercing scream that almost shattered his eardrums.
"That's it baby, let go" Laxus whispered against her folds
"Laxus, please" Lucy moaned, her back arching off the bed
She continued moaning out his name as her orgasm drew nearer causing Laxus' licks and tongue lashing to continue with a more violent fervour, pushing her closer and closer towards the edge.
"LAXUS" Lucy screamed, her hips trying and failing to buck against him, his strong hands holding her hips in place as he continued his torture, he had yet to touch her sensitive bud and she felt as if she was going to lose it if he didn't do so soon.
He continued his savage attack on her slit and Lucy saw stars when he slid his tongue deep inside her, twirling and flicking it, tasting every big of her until she was panting out incoherent words.
"LAXUS PLEASE" Lucy begged and Laxus grinned, he finally left her slit and found her bundle of nerves, pulling it into his mouth as he sucked hard on the pearl, causing her to scream in pleasure, her legs quaking around his head.
"God Lucy, you taste so good," Laxus moaned, licking up all of her juices before grinning at her.
"Are you ready?" Laxus questioned, peeling off his boxers and lowering his hips against hers, the head of his cock rubbing against her folds
"I need you Laxus" Lucy moaned, Laxus groaned at her words
"This is going to hurt," Laxus warned
"I trust you" Lucy replied.
Laxus moved down to her lips, capturing them between his own as she slowly slid into her, her tight walls clenching around his dick. He soon came to her barrier, stopping.
"Here goes baby," Laxus whispered before pulling back and pushing into her completely in a single thrust. Lucy let out a soft cry, her legs moving to clamp around him as her nails dug into his shoulders, her eyes shut as she tried to get over the pain
"I'm sorry baby" Laxus whispered, kissing her jaws as he stilled, letting her get used to the size of him. It was her first time and he was huge, therefore he knew the pain would be great than it normally would have been.
Finally, the pain subsided, causing Lucy to let out a timid buck, making sure there was no pain. Once she was sure, she bucked harder, the pleasure of him filing her completely taking over. Laxus groaned as he felt her buck before pulling out and thrusting again.
"Shit, you're so tight, so wet. Baby you feel so good" Laxus moaned, the pace of his thrusts increasing
"Laxus, harder, please, give it to me" Lucy begged, Laxus let out an animalistic growl as he spread her wider, wrapping her legs around his waist as his thrusts became harder and deeper.
"Oh Laxus" Lucy moaned, clawing at his back
Laxus groaned before leaning down to capture her lips between his own. One of his hands moved to between their hips, poking and prodding against her clit. He rubbed her clit in tight circles with his thumb, her walls clamping down harder.
"Lucy, baby I'm cumming" Laxus groaned, the speed of his thumb and thrusts increasing
"Cum with me baby, I want to feel you cum around my cock" Laxus moaned, Lucy let out soft cries as his cock entered deeper and harder.
"Laxus! LAXUS I'M CUMMING," Lucy yelled as he continued playing with her clit. Lucy's walls clamped tightly around his cock, massaging his dick as his thrusts became more sporadic, his own euphoria taking over.
"Shit baby, I'm cumming too" Laxus moaned before thrusting one last time, his cock was deep within her walls when he stilled, letting out a small roar as he came inside her, filling her with every drop of his cum.
Once they'd both come down from their highs, Laxus rolled off of her and onto the couch, pulling her against him. Lucy sighed as she was tucked between the large arms of her boyfriend.
"Was I too rough?" Laxus questioned, wrapping an arm around her waist, ensuring she was okay.
"You were perfect" Lucy whispered sleepily, a soft smile on her face as she fell asleep against his chest.
*End of Flashback and Smut*
Lucy sighed to herself. Now that she was living in her memories, she really did miss her boyfriend. She looked around his office, except it didn't look like just his office anymore. It was a piece of them; every first in their relationship took place in this office.
The place felt alive, it had pieces of their souls in every corner, in every item. It was somewhere no one could reach them. Somewhere they could just be themselves, be with each other. Lucy once again receded into her memories. Back to their very recent and most precious first.
*Flashback*
"Laxus? What is this surprise? Why do I need a blindfold? Where the hell are you taking me?" Lucy questioned as Laxus led her somewhere unknown
"Will you just shut up Sparkles? Just shut up and trust me okay" Laxus mumbled, causing a tick to appear on her forehead
"WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME YOU OVERSIZED BATTERY? I SWEAR LAX-" She was soon cut off as the blindfold fell off from her face, she stared in confusion at her surrounding
"Why are we in your office?" Lucy questioned, Laxus only shook his head before turning off the light Lacrima in his office, causing her to frown
"Just come here" Laxus called out, grabbing her hand and pulling her towards him
"Laxus! I can't see anything, what is this big surprise anyway?" Lucy questioned once again. She felt him kiss her cheek before nuzzling her neck, her back against his chest with his arms around her, pulling her close to him.
"Look up at the ceiling" Laxus whispered
"What am I going to see? There's no light-" Lucy stopped short as her gaze turned to the ceiling, her breath caught in her throat.
Her mouth fell dry as she took in the sight of the ceilings glowing with small white dots in the shape of different constellations. However, what she really noticed were the little glowing white strings that seemed to wrap around the little lights, entwining itself between the lights.
"Laxus… what is this?" Lucy questioned, her voice barely above a whisper as she continued staring at the ceiling
"It's all your favourite constellations representing you and your magic, and those white glowing strings are lightning bolts, representing me and my magic. It's a little piece of us that will forever be embedded in the guild. This way, we'll always be part of the guild, even after we're long gone" Laxus whispered, kissing the top of her forehead as he explained.
"It's beautiful" Lucy whispered, her heart pounding as she fought the onslaught of tears
"Do you like it?" Laxus questioned, frowning, as he smelled the saline solution he knew to be tears.
"I love it Laxus, no one has ever done anything this thoughtful for me before" Lucy whispered twirling in his arms and pulling him down to her, kissing him passionately. Laxus pulled away smiling as he kissed her forehead
"Lucy… I love you" Laxus whispered, holding her closer to him, she stiffened in his arms before relaxing further into them, almost moulding against him.
"I wanted to be the first to say it… but I love you too Laxus, so much" Lucy whispered as he swept her in for another kiss.
*End of Flashback*
Lucy turned her gaze towards the ceiling, the lights shining brightly as always. She grinned, watching the lights twinkling as the glowing strings danced around them. Lucy sighed before turning to the window.
It was already dark and she probably should get home soon. However, before she could leave, the door swung open, giving way to Laxus' looming figure.
"So here's where you've been" Laxus stated, grinning as his girlfriend bound over to him, she jumped up, wrapping her legs around him as she engulfed him in a hug.
"How was it?" Lucy questioned as she kissed his cheek before letting him go, moving towards his desk and tidying up the papers, once again filing them.
"It was good. I was just thinking, that we've had a lot of firsts in this office" Laxus mentioned, watching with a rare smile as she wandered around, cleaning up.
"Oh? Funny you should say that, I was pretty much thinking the same thing" Lucy said, turning to look at him when she was done. Only then did she notice the little box in his hand.
"Laxus? What is that?" Lucy questioned, cocking her head to the side as she stared at it in confusion
"It's a gift," Laxus said before reaching out and handing it over to him
"Laxus, you really shouldn't have" Lucy said, beaming at him as she took the beautifully wrapped white and gold box from his hands. She carefully undid the ribbon before opening the lid. Only to gasp in surprise, turning to state at in disbelief.
"Where did you get these? Why did you get these?" Lucy questioned, fingers grazing against the two items
"It was a reward for the mission. It's why I took it. When have you ever known me to take missions other than S Class?" Laxus replied, chuckling before his eyes softened
"As for why… it was a year ago today Lucy, that I fell hopeless in love with you" Laxus whispered, causing Lucy's eyes to widen.
"I know we've had many firsts in this office, and so I wanted my first gift to you to be under the same stars, in the same place as when I first told you I loved you. I know I've given you many gifts before, but those don't count. These Gate Keys, they're my first official gift to you on the first anniversary of when I knew I was in love with you" Laxus explained
Lucy sent him a watery smile before reaching up to him while pulling him down for a kiss. He grinned as he picked her up, deepening their kiss.
"You're such a romantic Laxus" Lucy giggled as they pulled away
"Don't go spreading it around, you'll ruin my image" Laxus teased, causing her to giggle again
"So why these two keys?" Lucy questioned, turning her gaze to the present
"Well, I got you the Shield, because well you need one. I don't want you getting hurt on any jobs if you can avoid it. Also, I heard it can shield large areas, so I was hoping you'd use it in order to stop Natsu from damaging so much stuff" Laxus replied, chuckling as she slapped his arm
"And this one?" She questioned, holding up the second key
"I heard that he's Loke's little brother, so I just assumed you'd want to reunite the two. I know how much that perverted lion means to you; no matter how much it annoys me" Laxus grumbled, causing Lucy to squeal as she once again hugged him.
"I love you Laxus" Lucy whispered
"I love you too Lucy" Laxus replied before sealing her lips with his own.
Isn't that just the cutest thing ever hehe. But yeah, leave reviews! I absolutely love reading them!
Wow, smut in the very first chapter. Nella what you doing with yourself?!
