Fairy Tail Camping (Nalu, Gale, Gruvia, Jerza, Miraxus, ect)

25: Shoulders

{ STORY TIME!!
Okay so, I was having a really hard time writing this chapter, and so I asked my wonderfully creative sister Allie, for assistance. And OH MY GOD SHE'S FRICKEN HILARIOUS. We were saying as to how Gajeel should take Levy off of the path and then.... What? And she said that they should go on a date.... But I said no. THEN SHE SAID THAT THEY SHOULD GET JUMPED. FRICKEN MUGGED. And I yelled at her that she's not thinking of the plot elements like WHO THE FRICK MUGGED THEM, HOW DOES EVERYONE REACT, WHAT HAPPENS AFTER?!? She had no idea. Then she said,
"They find a dead body."
WHAT THE FICK THEY'RE IN THE FRICKEN WOODS. WHOSE DEAD BODY IS IT?!?
She's laughing and says really seriously,
"Macao."
WHAT?!?! HOLY SHIT YOUR GOING TO FRIKEN KILL MACAO?!?!
I shot her down and we talked a little more, then se said,
"WAIT. What if they find THE MAJICARS!!???"
THEY'RE IN THE FRICKEN WOODS FOR GODS SAKE HOW WOULD YOU GET THEM THERE?!?
THERE'S A BUNCH OF TREES N' SHIT.
So at this point we were laughing really hard. An then she yells.
"WHAT IF THEY FIND MAVIS'S GRAVE."
WHAT THE FUK?
"MIRAJANE WILL POP OUT AND BE LIKE: 'You're on Tenrou Island.' AND IT'LL BE GREAT."
And then I said.
HOW DID THEY EVEN GET THERE,
I stopped for a second, then whispered. MAGIC.
And then my other sister came in on us laughing like retards and she started laughing. AND THEN WE WERE ALL LAUGHING. I want to let you know that I'm probably not going to use any of these ideas, just so you know. So that's it. End of story. NOW TO THE CHAPTER!!}
_______________________________

*Levy's POV*

I don't know how to feel about this. I'm walking with Gajeel and Lilly, and Gajeel is being... Weird. I don't know how to put it into terms... He's jut being weird. I thought that because we're a thing that'd he be softer and romantic I guess... But it's the opposite. He's stern and like a brick all the time. He's being bossy and pushy about everything. It's starting to get on my nerves. Even just holding his hand, he's tense and I feel like its meaningless to him. It makes me sad, like he's not taking any of this seriously, and that I'm just his little toy or pet. I don't like it. I want to talk to him about it.... But I don't know how to bring it up. I'm hoping that somehow I can stir up something inside of him to get him to realize that he's being this way. Pantherlilly definitely notices it. I can tell. He gives me glances and different looks that tells me he knows. But I don't think he wants to talk to Gajeel about it either. We have no idea how he would react to a situation like this. He's not very intact with his sensitive side. Our little walk isn't too bad so far, Gajeel and I are both silent as he swings are hands back and forth gently while we toddle around. My hands are getting kinda sweaty and I'm feeling uncomfortable, but Gajeel doesn't seem to mind. Lilly switches between walking and flying around us.
I don't know how much longer I'm going to be able to stand this silence...
Gajeel....

He takes a strong breath in and squeezes my hand, I lightly squeeze back.
"Nice day.." He says approvingly, looking up at the sky.
"Yeah, it is." I respond, breathing in the smells. I like the outside, it's soothing. Especially during this time of the year, in the evening it's just warm enough that you can wear shorts, and cool enough that you aren't hit while doing things. I love days like that. I hope we have one soon, and I'm getting a feeling about today. A gut feeling that today, will be a good day.
"Hey, come with me." Gajeel says suddenly, pulling me off the trail and into the brush.
"H-hey! I thought we were supposed to say on the path." I say, resisting slightly.
"A little detour won't hurt, and besides, I wanted to check this out. I knew these would be over here, I just had to find 'em." He says, grinning.
He pulls me along, helping when I stumble or trip. (Which is pretty often) Lilly glides above us, his wings glistening in the sunlight.
I about fall over a huge tree stump after stubbing a rock, Gajeel catches me by the waist with his huge meaty arms, and steadies me.
"Okay, that's it." He says, and looks up. He spots Pantherlilly flitting away and furrows his brow, moving his hand up to his forehead to block the sun.
"LILLY! Help the Shrimp over here." He yells and turns so his back is facing me.
What?
I watch as Pantherlilly circles around a couple of times before swooping down and bee-lining for me.
"A-AH!!! WHAT?!" I yell, largely confused.
His little paws grab the collar of my shirt and in lifted upwards by a couple of feet, and planted back down- square on Gajeels shoulders.
This again???
"You know you could have just told me you wanted to carry me on your shoulders, Lilly didn't have to do that." I say, crossing my arms.
He wraps his hands around my ankles and smirks, laughing a little.
"You would have said no, and I know it." He says huffing out laughs.
I frown and cross my arms tighter.
"I would not." I say quietly, my face getting warm.
"Is that so, and I take it you would have just jumped at the opportunity?" He grins.
"Not necessarily 'jumped' but I might have had some excitement, but it's too late, you ruined the moment for yourself." I say sassily.
"That's a shame, I would have looked forward to you being embarrasses after I 'accidentally' drop you...." He says.
"Gajeel Redfox I swear if you drop me..." I say, my hands pressed to the side of his face and my fingers curled under his angular chin.
"I'm only joking, I wouldn't do that to a Shrimp."
"How reassuring." I mumble.
He continues making his way through the forest, myself perched on his shoulders.
"So where are we going anyway?" I ask, braiding his locks into a beautiful Fish-Tail braid. He didn't protest, and seemed to rather enjoy it, he'd shut his eyes briefly, or exhale loudly every time I'd rush my fingers through his hair. He jerks his shoulders up, setting me closer to the back of his neck, so he can keep his grip. Every once in a while, he'd move his hands up to the beginning of my thigh, or end of my knee, to keep me from sliding backwards. It scared me the first time, he kinds just slid them from my ankles up. And I was startled. But he didn't really appear affected by it, but whatever.
"There's something I want you to see." He murmers, looking back up a Lilly. "How much further?" He yells.
"About another 10 minuets I'd say." He hollers back.
"Great." Gajeel scoffs.
"Can I get any hints about this 'secret place'?" I ask.
Gajeel shakes his highly-attractive head and tightens his grip around my ankles.
"No hints whatsoever." He says.
"Booooo." I sigh.
He chuckles and continues,
"You know those days that feel just right?" He says disturbingly serious.
I tap one of the piercings on his eyebrow.
"Yeah, like everything is a big puzzle and you have all of the pieces and they fit perfectly." I say smiling.
I want one of those days..
"I'd like one of those..." Gajeel says.

What?
Wait.
WHAT??

"You think we could have a day like that?" I ask, pulling his bangs from his eyes and face.
He slides his hands back up to my thighs.
"Maybe someday." He says
quietly.
"Maybe." I murmur.
Gajeel takes a large step over a unusually large tree stump, and we enter a clearing with the most beautiful sight I'd ever beheld. There they were. The RedWood trees.
"Gajeel... You didn't...." I murmur,
My hand to my face.
