'I will never let any man touch you the way I do. Especially those lips of yours. Remember that shrimp.'

I quickly rose from the bed at the sudden image occur in my dreams. There it goes again, those moments in the play that is always hunting not just my thoughts but even my dreams.  Sweat dropping on the side of my cheeks and my face is in a deep shade of red.

Seriously. What should I think about all of that ? Should I interpret that, that he really likes me ? Or he's just playing at me? Ugh . Why is it so hard to think ?! Of course he likes you, you idiot ! But what if I'm just assuming ? Is that a common thing? I slapped myself. I'm so stupid. Kissing someone is not a common thing for Mavis sake Levy what is happening to you ?!! Where did the hell your brain went ? 'It jumps out of my head when he kissed me.', I sheepishly replied to myself. And why am I arguing with myself ?? This is ridiculous. How can I be so in love with that lug ! I never felt like this even when I'm still in a relationship with Jet and Droy. And then and again, they just dated me for their own stupid selfish excuses. But Gajeel, something in his eyes tells me that he is a sincere person. That I can go in a middle of a war unarmed and I am not gonna be hurt because he is there. Ugh.. I'm such a hopeless romantic.

I glance at the clock on the study table besides my bed. It reads 5:57 am. I guess I cannot go back to sleep anymore. With a sigh, I left my bed and went to the bathroom. After several minutes in the shower, I dried myself with a towel and rapped another in my head. When my hair and body dried, I wear my school uniform with a white headband to handle my wild blue locks of a hair and put some light make up then I put my glasses and went downstairs.

. . .

"Levy !", a certain red-headed beauty approached me.

"Erza ! I haven't seen you in a while.", I said smiling brightly at her.

"I am sorry for that. There is just so many things that we need to do in the student council. Especially the winter break is almost coming."

"Oh I see. Being the student president is a lot of work huh ?"

"Yeah. We are preparing all the decorations for the Christmas Party, especially the Christmas Ball."

"There's gonna be a ball ?"

"Yes. We are making the flyers now so everyone can prepare and choose their partner."

"Oh ."

"So .. I assume that your partner would be Gajeel."

"W-what ? W-why did you assumed that ?", I asked feeling the hotness slowly arising on my face.

"Well, because of what I saw on the play, I thought that you two are dating.", she answered in a 'matter of factly' tone.

Now my face can rival the color of her hair.

"W-we are not dating Erza.", I said waving my hands in front of her to emphasize my words

"Oh really ? Hmm that's weird.", she said placing her index finger on her chin as if thinking deeply.

"What's weird ?", I asked quirking an eyebrow.

"Well, Gajeel is showing his possessive side, so I thought you two are already a thing."

"Possessive side ?"

"Yes. You know, like when he did that on the play. He changed the whole play because he doesn't want anyone to touch you like the way he does."

When she said that, Gajeel's words echo in my head. The one he said after he kissed me on the stage. He will never let anyone touch me the way he does.
