days and nights passed by, too many for Levy to count anymore. fairytail had been disbanded for nearly a year now, she was now a member of the council along with gajeel and lily. the council certainly opened her to meeting new people ( and prisoners ) daily, that included another certain dragon slayer. erik. at some point before the crime sorciere was pardoned, levy was assigned to learn what she could about him, this was in order for the council to understand and decide how dangerous he was. oh, Levy would find out just how dangerous he was.. but in a different way. she grew close to him when learning about him, finding that physical content, and actually speaking with him may be easier than trying to dig up old dusty files. While that wasn’t the case, he was stubborn and hard headed. reluctant to speak to her about anything too deep, too specific. that was fine, she wasn’t hardly going to give up so easily. Not on him anyway.
lips roll together, footsteps soft through the corridor. heavy ones are steady behind her, gajeel. her eyes roll, not wanting to put up with him TODAY. she’s almost to where Erik is, so she wont have to deal with him for long, she thinks. gajeel speaks and as usual it’s simple minded.. but it quickly turns south with him hitting on her. her chestnut hues widen with surprise, cheeks dusted, simply flustered. she quickly adverts her gaze, pulls open the door and shuts it, not too good with those sorts of things and rejecting people, she didn’t like hurting people. her head hangs, she walks steady to where erik is, finally. she enters his quarters, a friendly smile sewing her lips. without missing a beat, he grabs her wrist, pulling her close and onto him. she realizes she’s straddling him, and plain skin explodes with scarlets.
she was confused more than anything, running in circles trying to figure out what was happening in the exact moment. she was smart, but she just couldnt deduct what was unfolding in front of her. this wasn’t normal. they were friends, yes, they knew eachother well, yes, but this ?. her heart is thumping, and there’s butterflies, and knots all in her stomach and now she’s confused for herself and him. lips part, to speak to say anything but words wont form, her body has hidden them from her, locked them away like an animal in a cage. eyes dart to amethyst, they stare, she gets lost and then they dart AWAY again. she’s scared, but in a hopeful way - if that even makes sense. all her sense falls away from her, it’s as if she’s been put under a spell. and like roses wither and the petals fall she can feel herself, her composure falling away from her. hands rest on both shoulders, his on her waist. skin is on fire everywhere. something folds inside her, something calms her like the ocean. fragile hands move, run across skin all the way to cradle his face. body moves on it’s own at this point, she’s on autopilot. and in a split second, things change again. and lips are pressed on to his. she feels a smirk beneath her lips and she pulls away. silence overwhelms, and spills into the room. she cant say anything, she has no explanation, no single clue at what just happened.
