She is Not Just a Shrimp

Part 4

Levy sat on Gajeel's bed, changing his bandages once more. "This is probably going to be the last time I'm changing these, because your wounds are practically gone." She said, rubbing the ointment in. Pouting slightly, Gajeel hugged her. "Then I'll have to get into more fights.." He said, jokingly. Levy slapped his face. "Th-That's not something you joke about!! I was worried!" She said, raising her voice. Tears pooled in her eyes as she stood up. Gajeel's eyes widened after being hit. He apologized, and the two had an awkward moment of silence for a bit. Natsu soon barged in, only to have Lucy pull him out by the ear. Levy and Gajeel looked at the door that was slammed shut, and laughed to themselves. Hugging Gajeel, Levy apologized and kissed his cheek better. Hiding her face on his shoulder, Levy whispered three special words in his ear. Gajeel blushed slightly, and continued hugging her.
