Shadows Brought into the Stars (book 2)

Dancing

"Wow you weren't kidding you really can't dance," Gajeel said bluntly as he watched Lucy try and teach Rogue how to dance.
Rogue growled at his comment and kept his eyes on the ground to watch his feet.
"Rogue, ignore him. Remember box," Lucy said lifting Rogue's head to face hers.
He was confused for a few seconds before Levy played the music and he took Lucy's hands.
He did not want to learn but he would do anything for Lucy.
Where's Frosche?
She's sleeping with the rest of the guild.
As time passed Rogue got used to it and ended up liking to dance, especially with Lucy.
(Mostly the Lucy part)
"Wow! Lu-chan's a good teacher!" Levy giggled as she watched the two dance, and she sat with her legs crossed on the ground next to a relaxed Gajeel.
"Thanks!" Lucy said happily as she let's go of Rogue's hand and claps,"I'm pretty sure you've learned!"
Rogue blushed slightly at her praise.
"So Lucy are you to ready to meet... uh, what was his name again?" Gajeel asked turning to Levy.
"Tray Frolock," Levy said sighing because this isn't the first time she repeated it to him.
"Why did you ask Lucy if she's ready?" Rogue asked with a tick mark on his forehead.
"Because Bunny girl is obviously leading this relationship," Gajeel said chuckling.
Rogue and Gajeel glared at one another as Lucy and Levy exchanged glances at one another.

"Ok! Wish us luck!" Lucy called to Levy and Gajeel as she wore her red dress and her hair had been left down to her shoulders.
Rogue was waiting outside, Gajeel was supposed to help him get ready but Gajeel said and I quote 'no'.
Lucy walked out and was messing with her fingers.
"Wow!" Lucy heard Rogue say and she looked at him as he stared at her.
His mouth was hanging open in awe.
Lucy giggled at his response and took his and they took the midnight train to Haregeon, because that's where the banquet is being held.

On the train Lucy didn't end up bringing her keys because she knew Rogue would protect her, plus they didn't go with her dress.
Rogue was a little grumpy that she didn't bring her keys, because she always summons Virgo for a motion sickness pill.
"Here," Lucy said and she urged his head onto her lap and he instantly felt better, but sleepy.
And Rogue fell fast asleep...

Rogue's P.O.V
"Rogue..." I heard Lucy whisper, and it took me to soak in the situation.
My eyes open and the train has made it to a complete stop.
I of course feel better but my cheeks got warm as I realized I'm laying on Lucy's lap.
"Let's go to the banquet!" Lucy said with a cute blush on her cheeks.
I nodded and finally stopped blushing and grabbed her hand.
We walked towards the big building holding hands and I noticed her blush, she still hasn't been used to us showing people that we're dating.

"Do you see him?" Levy asked, on the other side of the lacrima.
"No. Because we don't know what her looks like," I say irritatedly.
"Well figure something out!" Gajeel yelled next to Levy.
"Ok... we'll tell you if we find him," Lucy said calmly.
"And... Bunny girl? How are you going to find him?" Gajeel asked.
Lucy walked up to a total stranger, nearby and asked, "may you help me find... Tray Frolock?"
The man had black purple hair that spiked over one of his eyes that were bright green, and he was wearing a leather tuxedo.
"Your talking to his brother," the man said irritatedly.
"Oh, may you point to where your brother is?" Lucy asked and winked at Gajeel like the smartass she is.
"Yes right this way..." and I hung up the lacrima crystal and followed closely behind Lucy.
I growled at anyone who looked at Lucy's butt.
