*Levy's POV*

I hate being negative, but this movie night is going to suck. I do not want to be stuck sitting next to Gajeel for an hour and a half. I'm really excited to see this movie, but I don't know how he'll react to it. And you never know with Gajeel.
Lucy lunges over to me and gives me a disturbing look.
"I just heard Juvia call Gray, Gary. What is going on????"
My eyes widen, this isn't good.
"I guess the berries must've had some sort of effect on her. How much does she remember?" I ask.
"I talked to her about it and she has memory of everything, it's just when she said that her and Gray went after Natsu and I, she called him Gary. Plus there was no 'my darling, or beloved'.....this scares me." Lucy whispered.
"Do you think she has fallen out of love with him?" I question. Lucy shrugs. Gajeel walks up with a big black comforter, he gestures the blanket at me with a grunt.
"Here." He coughs.
"What am I supposed to do with this?" I say. He shrugs and dumps the blanket in my arms.
"Girls like blankets and warm stuff don't they? You figure out what to do with it." He mumbles, turning around, walking over to the blanket line and plopping down in the middle.
"He's so weird!" I scream-whisper at Lucy. She gives me the eyebrows and goes really close to my ear.
"Smell it." She whispers, almost to quiet to hear.
My eyes widen and I give her a death-glare.
"Excuse me?" I angrily whisper back to her.
Her eyes shine and she has a twisted grin on her face.
"Do it."
"No."
"DO IT."
"NO."
"What if it smells nice." She pouts.
"And what if it doesn't?!" I snap.
"He probably washed it seventy times, knowing that you'd have it..." She trails off, walking over to the lacrima screen we'll be using for the movie.
She has some nerve. I guess I'll just sit here and wait for everyone else to get here. Romeo and Wendy are sitting on the blankets, (away from Gajeel) and playing UNO with Lisanna and Bixslow. One of Bixslow's dolls is sitting in Lisanna's lap. Oooo, that means something!!! Bixslow never let's anyone touch his babies. Gray is carefully watching, (stalking) Juvia while she grabs some of her pillows and sets them to the left of Gajeel. Erza's organizing the snacks, laying them into piles on the table that Mira brought. Jellal and Laxus are nowhere to be seen, and Lucy is cartwheeling away from Loke who just showed up.
Lucy is in the middle of the field turning to run but then trips on a pink.... SHOE?? And collapses right into Natsu. They both fall on top of each other and the blanket Natsu was holding spreads out over them. In an instant, Mira is there in her Satan Soul and is taking pictures with her lacrima-camera. She's screaming '10 POINTS NALU, 10 POINTS NALU.' Lucy is going to slaughter her. The blanket flys off, along with Natsu, Lucy is left with a foot in the air and dirt and grass all over herself. Haha!!

*time skip 20 minuets*

I sit between a Water Mage and an Iron DragonSlayer. I have a large and admittingly good-smelling black comforter draped upon my body, and an additionally good-smelling pillow resting under my head. Pantherlilly is curled up on my legs and is sound asleep. Gajeel is lying on his back, his arms behind his head, his left leg no more than an inch away from my foot. He traded in the spiked boots and wrist bands for long socks and pants, he's also got a sweatshirt on that has blacks and dark blues and purples all over it, it kinda reminds me of a galaxy design, but less crazy a star-filled. The colors fade out gently to black at the collar.
I'd like to say that it's been a good and interesting movie so far, but I cant hardly pay attention with the sound of his deep breathing and that his face piercings shine from the light of the screen, (yes I was looking at him.....briefly) At one part in the movie, a guy was singing about money and Natsu leaned up and yelled at him,
"Bet you wish you could sing like that don't you Metalface?!"
Gajeel let out a deep and masculine laugh, it couldn't have been more terrifying and beautiful. He rolls his eyes and yells back,
"I can sing better than that damn fool any day."
"I call bullshit." Laxus says from the opposite side of the blanket line.
Everyone laughs at Gajeel, he just keeps quiet.
I wait until they stop to whisper at him.
"I think your pretty good at singing." I peep. He smiles and moves a little, his muscular arm resting a top my head.
"Thanks shrimp." He murmurs.
I guess Gajeel must've been happier to hear that than I thought because then he unbent his arm and had it laying behind my head, his hand limp on my shoulder.
"Thanks." He barley whispers. I shrivel back a little, pulling the blanket up to cover my cheeks, they must've been as red as Erza's hair. So now I'm really starting to get the feeling that Gajeel likes me. This is awkward. What do I do??! I look to my left, Juvia is silently watching the movie with a smile on her face. Gray is quite close, intently watching her. Kinda creepy. Behind them I see the blue of Wendy's pony-tails, her and Romeo are sharing a blanket!! How cute!! Lisanna and Bixslow are sharing a blanket too, and Bixslow took off his mask!! And then there's Mirajane. She's staring at me so hard I think I'll have nightmares. Her mouth is moving slightly, chanting something. It looks like she's saying 'hail'-oh no. She's chanting 'Gale'. I cant believe she hasn't attacked him and I by now. Laxus is laying on his back beside her. I wonder how he feels about this, he's staring at her, a little smile on his face. He totally likes her.
I guess Erza and Jellal must've been snuggling it up because every once in a while, I'd see a knee or an elbow come up from behind Gajeel and then Jellal would go,
"Ow, haha. That hurt."
And then Erza would reply,
"Then don't do that!"
"You have too much of the blanket.."
Then I hear him whisper,
"Sharing is caring..."
And then they'd both go silent.
Then Natsu yells,
"Get a room you two!!"
And everyone violently shushes him and Lucy punches or kicks him. Come to think of it, I have no idea how Lucy's doing. I can't see or hear her because of the Gajeel Wall. I shake my head, just try to watch the movie.
Gajeel's hand moves, his warm palm close to my neck and shoulder. He unclenches his fist and his fingers lay freely. Why Gajeel, WHYY.
I'm using all of my willpower to keep my head forward slightly, if I let go it'll be on his arm. His warm, muscular, strong, Gajeel arm....
You're going to have to let your head down sometime, my stupid brain tells me.
I know....
Do it, get it over with.
Ughhhh.
C'mon, do it.
Fine.
Ever so slowly I close the inch gap between my head and his arm. I can tell that he notices because his muscle tenses as soon has my head hits it. We sit in silence until the movie is over. Natsu ignites his hand into flames giving everyone some light. I look over at Gajeel, his eyes are shut, a deep rumble coming from his chest.
He's sleeping.. aweee. Wait.
How am I supposed to get up then??
"Natsu get over here!!" Mira scream whispers. She's standing behind me, her lacrima-camera in hand.
"Don't. You. Dare." I whisper at her. Natsu steps over Gajeel's legs and illuminates the two of us with his fire. Mirajane quietly chants Gale while taking forty pictures. She finally sets the camera down then bends down into Gajeel's ear. She whispers something and his eyes shoot open, he's looking straight at me. He's got a small trail of drool coming out of his mouth.
"What the hell?" He groans, rolling over to the right, taking his wrapped-around-Levy-arm with him. Thank God, I didn't want that to last any longer.
"Get up Gajeel it's time to play some games!!!" Mira yells at him, kicking him in the back.
"What are we playing first?" Lucy asks. Mira looks back at her, she has a horribly dark glint in her eyes.
"Truth or Dare." She whispers
Oh....great.
"Everyone get in a circle on the blankets." She says. "This game is going to have a twist, if you don't do the required truth or dare, the there will be punishments... Lucy you can go first." We all look at Lucy, she's shocked and scared at the same time. I watch as Mirajane gets up and wanders towards the snack table behind me.
"O-okay, um... Levy, Truth or Dare..?"
Shit.
"Truth." I say automatically. Lucy's head wanders around.
"Do you like.......Gajeel." She snaps her head back to face me.
Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Everyone stares at me. My face is on fire. Gajeel's sitting beside me, I can see him tense up.
"Um.... Well...I-I..." I stutter.
Mirajane comes out of the blue and 'accidentally' trips and slams into Gajeel, and he of course, lands right on me. Now him and I are very very close-too close. My face is on fire. We're in a similar position as Natsu and Lucy were in this morning. His hands are inches from the sides of my head. My legs are sprawled out in front of me, Gajeel's knees on the ground around my torso.
It strikes me as inhumanly possible that Mirajane had hit him so hard that this happened. But it happened and I'm not okay.
I squeeze my eyes shut, wanting to just disappear.
Just get me out of here!! I scream in my head.
"Levy.." A mere whisper sounds.
I slowly open my eyes, Gajeel is smiling at me, a smirk rather-but it's still a smile. He has a tint of pink in his face.
Oh god.
He lifts a hand and cups my cheek, his hand is warm and firm. Ever so slowly he bends down and plants the softest and most gentlest kiss on my lips. And before I realize what I'm doing, my eyes are shut, and I'm passionately kissing him back. My hands slink around to his neck and his other hand to my face. I swear time stops.
I can't hear anything going on around me.
I can only feel the warmth between us, and the beating of my heart.
Gajeel finally pulls away, a meaningful smirk on his face.
"You're pretty damn good for a Shrimp." He muses.
I circle my thumbs along his jawline.
"Shut up you big lug." I smile.
Although it was sudden, I guess I've finally realized that I like Gajeel. Like really like him. And it's apparent that he feels the same towards me. He gets up off of me and grabs my hand to help me up. I regain my spot next to him, and he ceases to let my hand go.

I look at the mages surrounding me, and every single one of them had their jaws on the ground. They were so shocked.
Mirajane explodes, she's screaming and the flash of her camera is everywhere.
"GALE IS A SUCCESS!!! TWENTY POINTS GALE!!
I WANT THIRTY GALE BABIES.
THIRTY.
NO LESS."
Laxus grabs her by the shoulders and pulls her back down to a sitting position. She claws and struggles until he gets her into a bear hug and she has no choice but to stop.
"Lisanna, truth or dare?" I ask, being completely normal. She shakes her head out of amazement and chokes out a measly,
"Dare."
I try to think of a saucy dare, but it's just not coming to me. Mira slides over saying she'll 'help'.
But what she came up with is pretty good
"I dare you to switch shirts with someone here of the opposite gender for the rest of the day. And they cannot be a DragonSlayer." I say.
She gives a weird look to me and a soul-piercing glare to her sister.
"Okay...so that leaves Gray, Romeo, Jellal, and....Bixslow. Romeo, your shirt would be too small. Erza would kill me if I said Jellal, Gray's shirt is nowhere to be seen, so Bixslow, hand it over!" She says, whipping off her own shirt. I could tell many of us were about to scream at her for revealing the top half of her body, but she luckily had a tank-top on underneath. Bixslow sheds off the dark blue long-sleeved shirt he was wearing, and gives it to her. She slips it on, it being an obvious many sizes too big. And Bixslow slips on the form-fitting light green t-shirt. The tightness showing off his muscular abdomen.
Lisanna smirks and whips around the long sleeves.
"Done!" She says.
Mira takes several pictures and the game continues. We play several more rounds, Erza was asked a truth, didnt answer, and faced the consequence of Jellal drawing a tattoo on her face, so to match his.
Romeo was dared to address Wendy as 'Miss Marvel' for the rest of the game. Natsu truthed that the reason why he sleeps in Lucy's apartment is because she is nice to him, and he likes being around her. (Hint hint, he definitely likes her)
There was a brief disruption when Lucy, Erza, Lisanna, Juvia, Wendy, and I started blaring out, 'And at Last I See the Light' from the movie. This lasted until the guys were too stubborn to fill Eugene's part.
Anyway, Gray was dared into giving Juvia a piggy back ride around the blanket plain, twice. And finally, Mira truthed that she can eat people's souls and literally crush their dreams with the power of her Satan Soul. How wonderful.
This game took so long, that we had to head back to the camp right afterwards.
Thank God,
I could sleep for a year.
