Laxus X Reader Pt. 2

~Y/n's POV~

Let's just start this out by saying; some shit has gone down in the past couple of years. Everyone came back after, what so happened to be seven years, the guild had fallen to hell, we entered the grand magic games, we dealt with time-traveling people, we met dragons and saved the kingdom. 

Wow. Now that I think about all that at once, it's amazing that we've gone through all this only within a couple of months or so. So, so much has happened. Though not all of it was so bad. In the end, we got our number one place back in the guild rankings, so that's a plus. We met some new people and made some new friends, and we all grew even closer. Though I'm not sure how much closer we can even get as a guild. 

Everything seemed to be good. Everything was so...peaceful and comfortable. 

However, there was one thing I wasn't so comfortable with. Well, it's not that I'm uncomfortable with it. I'm just not very certain of it. I'm not sure where it stands. 

This "it" I'm talking about is my relationship with Laxus. It's not like it's bad right now. Ever since the moment I had with him on Tenrou Island, things were different between us. Our relationship felt different. In a way it never had before. 

Laxus had changed so much. He was more tolerant of others and more willing to express certain emotions, even if it was to only a certain number of people, it's still better than what it was. 

As for solely him and I, I feel as if we've been closer than we ever have been. It's weird when I think about it. Even when we were dating, we were never this close. Back then I always felt as if I could never truly open up to him. Yeah I loved him, and he loved me, but there was just something off about us that I couldn't put my finger on. But now, I can crack jokes with him and he'd actually chuckle a bit. I can tease him and see a real reaction from him. He doesn't push me away anymore. He accepts every part of me. He accepts me for who I am. 

I already accepted that I love him. I accepted that a long time ago. I know damn well if he asked me to be his girlfriend again, I'd say yes. 

I mean, I know I could ask him myself and he'd say yes as well, but that's not fun. Besides, I can't say I'm not curious to see how he'll try and get me back. So far it hasn't been anything extreme. He's kinda just been sticking by my side, waiting for me. He waited to make sure I was comfortable with his presence, and I couldn't help but fall hard in love with him for it. It made me realize how much he truly has changed.

Damnit Laxus, what are you doing to me? 

I let out a soft laugh as so many thoughts ran through my head. My mind was spinning, barely being able to comprehend a single thought. They all just kinda ran together at this point. Though, a part of me didn't really mind that so much. I mean, at least my life isn't boring, right? 

"Who am I kidding? No one in this guild has a boring life." I said softly, leaning against the balcony of the castle. Oh yeah, I almost forgot I was at such a prestigious event right now. After the whole dragon situation, a ball was held at the castle and it seemed like every guild was there. Though it seemed nice, it really wasn't my scene. First of all, I normally don't choose to dress up all fancy-like. Second, I can barely handle all the people in my guild, let alone all these other guilds plus royalty. Hence why I'm choosing to be outside. 

"Mhm, thought I'd find you out here." 

I heard that familiar gruff voice from behind me, involuntarily causing me to smile upon hearing it. 

"Oh yeah? Did you have a feeling, or did you just follow me?" I asked, slightly turning my head to the side to be able to see the large form of Laxus.

"Maybe I did, maybe I didn't." Laxus said a humorous tone to his voice as he walked closer to me, eventually ending up by my side as he too put his hands on the balcony. 

"Stalker." I mumbled, side-eyeing the male. 

Laxus simply shrugged, looking over at me for a moment. "I don't hear you complaining about it." He retorted. 

"And you never will." I told him, not being able to contain my small laugh at this small conversation. 

"Thought so." He said with a small chuckle, fully turning his head to give me his attention. "You know, I never thought I'd actually see you in a dress like that." He said, a cocky smirk on his face. 

A small blush formed on my face as I quickly looked forward, avoiding his eyes. "Shut up. Not like I had much choice." I grumbled as I pouted a little. "I mean, we're literally at the royal home. Not like I couldn't wear a dress." 

Laxus hummed a little, turning his body towards me as he gently grabbed my hand to turn me to face him as well. "You look beautiful though." He said as his fingers intertwined with mine. 

"I-" I couldn't even piece together words to say. I don't think Laxus has ever called me that in all these years I've known him. "I mean I-"

"What? Tounge-tied?" Laxus asked teasingly, using his grip on my hand to lightly yank me forward, causing me to have to put my other hand on his chest to regain balance. 

"Sly motherfucker." I mumbled, not having the guts to actually look up at him yet. 

Though I could hear a small chuckle come from the man in front of me as I felt his fingers underneath my chin, lifting it to make eye contact with him. "Y/n..." He whispered. 

"Laxus.." I said in return, licking my lips slightly as I looked up at the other, my hand finally relaxing against his chest. 

"Y/n, I've been trying to be patient. I really have. I didn't want to pressure you and I wanted to give you time, but I can't take this anymore. Please, just tell me flat out; is there a chance, any chance at all that you'll take me back?" Laxus asked. I could tell in his voice that he was nervous. He was showing the vulnerable, soft side that almost no one ever gets to see. It made me feel so special in a way I can't describe. 

I bit my lip as I listened to what he had to say, my eyes holding nothing but affection towards this dragon. "You should already know the answer to that Laxus," I told him, making sure my voice was just as soft as his. I wanted to let him know that he wasn't the only one feeling nervous or anxious about the situation. 

"I know but, I just want to hear it. I need to hear you say it." Laxus whispered, knowing very well that I could hear it. 

I hummed in acknowledgment and stepped back a little to fully look at the man she loved. "Laxus," I said, standing on the tip of my toes to be able to wrap my arms fully around his neck. "I love you so much." 

And that seemed to be all it took for Laxus to dive down and attach his lips to my own. I couldn't help but let out a small sigh of pleasure in being able to feel his lips again. Those lips I've missed, those lips I've yearned for so, so long now...

I tilted my head a little bit as one of my hands cupped his cheek, wanting to be able to fully enjoy the kiss. It wasn't overly deep or lustful, no, it was just loving. Nothing but pure requited love for one another. 

"I love you too. And I promise I'll never let you go again." 

That is all I heard before once again kissing the one man who's always, and forever will, have my heart. 

I'm not sure how well I did on the writing here, so let me know if you guys want me to go back and change/edit anything!
