Confessions of Dragons (Gajevy/NaLu) {Fairy Tail}

100 Years Later...

Levy woke up in a somewhat panic. She sat up quickly looking around clutching her bed sheets. She looked over to the right side of her bed where Gajeel slept next to her. He was snoring. She sighed and cuddled up into his arms which woke him up a little. He smiled at her wrapping his arms around her. "What woke you?" He asked sleepily.

"A dream I had." She said knowing she wasn't falling asleep any time soon. She snuggled closer still feeling a little freaked out. She wasn't sure if what she had saw was just her mind or if it was real history.

"We did name you after the brave princess of the Magnolia kingdom eighty-five years ago." Her mother said smiling down at her. "If you've ever seen a portrait of her, you'd see how much the two of you look alike."

Levy sat there thinking for a while until Gajeel started snoring again and their cat, Pantherlily, came in and curled up on the pillows next to her. Did his parents name him after the Iron Knight, or is it coincidence?

Gajeel woke up to Levy kissing his forehead and walking away quickly, "Oi, wait, shorty!" He called after her sleepily.

Levy turned around and looked at him. She gave him a small smile, "Where are you going in such a rush? You didn't even wake me." He said sitting up.

Levy sighed, "My dream last night." She said walking over to him. She sat on the bedside and said nothing more. After about two minutes she looked up at him, "Why did your parents name you Gajeel?"

"Huh?" He asked swinging his legs over the side of the bed. He looked at her closely. What kind of question was that?

"Why is your name Gajeel?" She asked again but he could see the tears welling up in her eyes.

"Uh," he knew he needed to answer, but he never had a chance to ask his parents. They were murdered when he was one and that's when he went to the orphanage until Metalicana adopted him when he was three. "I really don't know." He sighed as he said this. He never told her about his parents.

"Why don't you ask them for me?" She asked getting up seeming a little more herself, then the teary eyed girl she was a second ago.

"I...can't." He stood up and walked to the bathroom.

"Why not? Isn't your father still alive?" She asked.

Gajeel shook his head, "Metalicana is who I consider my father, because he is my adoptive father, but my biological parents where murdered when I was still pretty young."

Levy didn't say anything, she just looked at her feet until her head shot up, "Metalicana..." She whispered.

"What about him?" Gajeel asked with a confused look as he leaned against the door frame not feeling the need to go anymore, for the time being.

"He was in my dream too and..." She bit her lip. Gajeel sighed knowing this was her frustrated sign. "Come to the library with me."

He groaned and looked into her eyes, "Fi-ne." He said opening the bathroom door. "Let me get some pants on first." He walked into the bathroom, suddenly needing to use it again. He heard Levy mumble something outside the door that sounded like "I prefer you like you are." Meaning only his boxers which, made him smirk.

Levy flew around the library so quickly Gajeel couldn't keep up with her. He eventually decided to give up after she had put about ten different books into his arms. He sat at a table and opened one. This is a history book... He opened another. And so is this one. He started looking through them all. They're all freaking history books!

Gajeel looked up from the books and watched as Levy came over carrying one more book. She sat down beside him and opened it reading it. Gajeel watched her so closely he was sure he could read the words through her reading glasses. "Shrimp?" He said quietly.

"Hm?" She replied not looking up from her book. When he just stared at her she looked up noticing he didn't reply. "What?" She raised an eyebrow. "I know that stare. You're interested in something."

He smirked, "You're just so into that book. What was your dream about that makes you rush to the library to look stuff up in history books?"

She sighed, "I had a dream of a knight, princess, and a curse."

"And your imagination is getting you to look up things in century old history books."

"I was the princess..." She said, "And you were my knight. The Iron Knight, just like him." She pointed at a picture of a Knight that looked so similar to Gajeel it was almost scary. "You turned into a dragon," she pointed at another picture. "Then we ran off together."

Gajeel slid the book away from her and looked through it. "Well damn," he said. "Same last names and everything."

"Yeah." Levy took another book. "This is the last you hear about them in history though but... I think that they had a child who had a child who had you."

Gajeel sighed, "Are you saying we're soul mates?"

Levy blinked and glared at him, "Gajeel, that was the last thing you said in my dream."

Gajeel sighed, "Even if it is true, we shouldn't really worry about it." He gave her a small smile. "We're living here and now and if we're really soul mates then we'll keep meeting and this moment, the one where me finally realize we're soul mates, will keep happening. We'll just keep moving forward."

He got up, "Let's go to breakfast, I'm starving."

Levy had tears in her eyes and she jumped up and hugged Gajeel which threw him off. "Thank you, Gajeel." She whispered. "I love you."

"Gihi, I love you too." He hugged her back and picked her up. "Time to go."

"Gajeel!" She blushed and got shushed by the people around them. She let him carry her outside. "I didn't put the books away."

"Someone else can do it, shrimp." He said walking towards the café. "Let's just enjoy our time together before we have to wait again."

Levy smiled as he stopped and put her down. Her chocolate colored eyes shined up at him in the sun light. He leaned down and kissed her softly, and she returned the kiss wrapping her small arms around his neck. "Someday I'll make you a Redfox too." He whispered in her ear which made her blush. He scooped her back up knowing she was in a bit of shock. "But I'm still hungry."

The End
