Mira's Matchmaking(a Bixlu Story)

What Did Your Paper Say?

I opened my eyes to see that I was in a bright hospital room and I squinted my eyes.

I looked around to see myself in one of the hospital beds from he guild. I looked around and when I looked to my right I gasped.

There was Bixlow lying down in the bed beside me but the thing was, we were still holding hands.

"Ah lovebird number one is up" I looked over towards the door to see Mira smirking at me.

"What happened?" When I said this Mira giggled and shook her head.

"Well I don't know why but you fainted and you fell into the river bank. And since you were tied to Bixlow he fell in too. It's in the middle of winter so you could have froze to death."

I looked over at Bixlows face and frowned, if I wasn't so overdramatic about a crush then Bixlow wouldn't have fallen in too.

"Bixlows climbed out of the water by himself with you in his arms and then he ran to guild where he collapsed. It is so romantic" she said putting her hands on her cheeks and squealing.

"I don't know how you find me and Bixlow nearly freezing romantic but it wouldn't have happened if you didn't come up with your dumb matchmaking games"I huffed.

"Oh come on don't be like that, I know you had fun" she smirked making me blush.

"Anyways how many hours do I have left?" I siad with a frown, what if my hours are up? I don't want them to be.

"Actaully I took off the rope on your hands five hours ago but you two are still holding hands" she giggles and I blushed but I decided to keep our hands joined. "Can you girls keep quite, some people are trying to sleep over here" I look to my side to see Bixlows wide eyes looking at me and my breath hitched at the sight, he showed the face of utter concern... and tiredness.

"ill leave you two alone" Mira chuckled, the door closing behind her. I looked back at Bixlow and for the first time In hours he let go of my hand and gripped tightly on my shoulders.

"Are you okay, I turned away from you for a second and before I knew it you were falling into a river" i looked down at my toes, I feel terrible for making me this worried. "I'm sorry I brought you down with me, and er, thank you for carrying me here, I guess I ow you one"

Billow blushed and looked over to his side, "I still have to do what was on my slips of paper today" I then looked over at his unreadable expression and sighed, he didn't tell me was on it.

What if it was kiss Lisanna, Erza, Mira.

All the girls that were prettier than me...

Bixlow noticed my sadness and squeezed me shoulder, "you okay, you went all quiet on me, last time that happened you were in a river"I giggled at his comment and stood up from my bed. "since we didn't get to watch our movie your probably hungry, we can get some Breakfast at the bar" I suggested, hoping to spend more time with him.

"sure then later we can grab lunch at Magnolias café"

The minute he said that my eyes widened with delight. He does want to spend time with me after all. I went over to him and grabbed his hand, are hands consciously intertwining. I guess we have just been used to holding hands after all this time.

Walking downstairs there was only around ten people in the guild altogether, me and Bixlow, Mira, Mokarov, Evergreen, Freed, Laxus, Levy, jet and Droy. I guess its early.

"Lucy!" I heard a call to see Evergreen calling me and Bixlow over to them, walking over, tugging Bixlow along with me. Laxus smirked at our conjoined hands and patted Bixlow on the back. "so by telling by the intertwined hands I'm guessing Bixlow done his three slips of paper huh?"

I looked over at Bixlow only to see him glaring at them making a zipping motion to his lips. "No I haven't yet I was just going to do it before you called us over so do you mind" Bixlow huffed dragging us away from the group hearing Evergreen laughing behind us.

"we can go to Magnolia café for breakfast" he said still pulling me, frowning, I pulled my hand away from his making him look back at me in confusion.

Crossing my arms over my chest I looked away from him, my mouth in a straight line.

"Lucy? Wh-"

"tell me what's on your paper"

"Lucy..."

"Tell.Me.What.was.on.your .paper"

Bixlow sighed and grabbed my face into his hands,looking down at me with a small frown on his face, it made his tattoo look wrinkly.

I blushed at our closeness and I realised that he was leaning it, he was centemetres from our lips touching.

Closing my eyes and puckering my lips I waited for a kiss, a longwaited kiss that never came.

Opening my eyes slightly I see that Bixlow is blushing and looking at my lips.

Was he not going to kiss me?

Realising I was a fool and just made an embarrassment out of myself I tried to pull my head out of his hands but he had the sides in a grip that I couldnt escape.

"Do you really want to know?" He said breathlessly. I nodded my head as he started to lean in one again.

My eyes drifted shut as his awaiting lips finally connected to mine and everything described in books was happening. It felt like fireworks were going off, it felt like butterflies exploaded in my stomach. It felt like it was right.

Bixlows lips were soft and warm, like satin against my own.

Our lips moved together, slowly and softly carresing one another. I tilted my head slightly starting to become a little more confident, licking and biting at the others lip.

Bixlow pulled away needing air and laughed when I tried to reconnect our lips again, wanting more contact.

"Kiss the one you love until your out of breath"
