Your Smile Is My World

The Reasons We Survive

"The Battle of Fairy Tail!"

"No Laxus, you can't make them fight each other, they are our nakama!" Lucy cried looking up at Laxus in a blur

"They stopped being my nakama when they failed to protect their friends, they stood by for weeks watching Lisanna and Natsu hurt you, scared they would get hurt themselves, the selfish bastards" Laxus yelled sparks in his fists

"But if Lisanna was just an illusion then Natsu was just being controlled that means its not their fault"

"They still watched, Lucy. They watched you cry for help and did nothing" Laxus said hurt in his eyes "How can you side with them after everything they have done?" Laxus questioned

"I-" Lucy looked down not sure how to answer

"Ever since I meet you Lucy, you have been the joy to by tiring days," Laxus stepped towards her taking her hand in his. "You always had a smile on your face and you didn't treat me like everyone else did. The master's grandson, the lightning freak." He lifted his hand to his scar, feeling the rough surface. "You only saw me, the one that liked music and sports. We never interacted much but when we did you made me smile, and i watched you every day from the second floor." He smiled to himself. "When Phantom Lord attacked i was still arrogant and selfish and you got tortured because i wanted to be cocky, but when i returned after my mission and saw that iron bastard in our guild, i lost it yet again almost hurting Levy." He looked into her eyes, lifting his hands to her cheeks. "But i have now realised that maybe I'm falling for you to much to call it a crush"

Lucy looked up surprised at his confession, the S-class, mighty strong lightning mage, Laxus Dreyar might love her. It seemed surreal.

"Then don't do this, just forget the stupid revenge and just let me be happy with you, because i to think i have fallen to deep to call this a crush, because everyday you sent your smile my way and shared your thoughts with me that you shared with no one else and saved me from my demons when no one else could. When i ran into your arms i knew i could trust you and give me warmth to my cold world" Lucy looked up to Laxus tears in her eyes as he looked down at her the same expression in his.

Laxus slowly bent his head to capture her mouth with his. A soft passionate kiss. Lucy felt instantly warm all over as his arms wrapped around her small waist and a hand soft against her cheek. Laxus pulled her closer, if that was possible, as they deepened the kiss.

After awhile Laxus pulled away, looking deep into her eyes.

"I'm sorry Lucy but I can't let them get away with this. I can't lose you" Laxus said a single tear falling down his cheeks. He pulled her closer to him, one hand falling to her lower back one one hand to the back of her head.

"No! Laxus don't please" Lucy yelled struggling in his grip

Electicity sparked out of his hands tasering Lucy's small form. She fell into his arms, he picked her up bridal style walking over to the bed. He placed her under the covers. He placed a kiss on her head before turning towards the door.
