Not Just a Silver Key

More Than The Stars

Leo/Loke's POV

I wake up to (Y/n) sleeping in my arms, nuzzled into my chest. I smirk a bit and brush some of her soft (h/c) hair out of her face. This is perfect. I never want her to leave my arms. I feel her shift in my arms and mumble some nonsense. Tears start streaming down her face.

"Stop...!... Karen... Please... Don't break my... Key..." Karen tried to break her key!? She's lucky she's dead, or else she'd be dead! And I'd kill her directly, too! No one hurts my Little Hunter and gets away with it!

"I don't want to... Please... I can't... Die... Leo hasn't... Noticed... Me yet..." So she's loved me all this time? Or is it just all of the thoughts in her head being jumbled together? I hug her tightly to try and soothe her, but she keeps crying.

"Don't... Please... I can't be a shield... Anymore..." She starts sobbing and I Pat her back, hoping she'll wake up. I don't want her to continue with this fear. She shouldn't feel pain like this! Karen and Angel made (Y/n) scared nearly to death! She's traumatized because of them! If I can help it, (Y/n) will never go through that pain again!

"Please... Please..." Her sobs quiet down to whimpers and she grips onto my shirt. I hug her tightly and kiss her forehead. I hope she'll stop having nightmares. It hurts to know that she's terrified because of what happened, and can barely get any peaceful sleep because of it.

"Nnn... Loke...?" (Y/n) stirs awake and I smile at her, pulling her closer to me. I kiss her forehead and hug her tighter.

"Go back to sleep..." I mumble and she nods, snuggling into me. Her breaths soon even and I kiss her forehead, soon falling back asleep.

I awake to see my body glowing. I guess Lucy needs me... Maybe Virgo can go, instead... I send said spirit in my place and drift back to sleep with (Y/n) sleeping soundly in my arms. I hope Virgo can handle whatever Lucy needed...

No One's POV

"Open! Gate of the Lion! Leo!" Lucy waves his key around, but instead of Loke, Virgo appears in his place.

"What do you need, Princess?"

"I summoned Loke, not you! Where is he!?"

"Big brother and sister were sleeping, so he sent me in his place." Lucy looks puzzled at Virgo's words.

"Leo told me to call him Big brother, and since he and Orion are together, she is Big sister." Lucy gets a sweat drop and points to the monster standing in front of her.

"Anyways, take this thing down!"

"Alright, Princess."

Leo/Loke's POV

I wake up to see (Y/n) still laying in my arms, fast asleep. I feel her warmth and snuggle closer to her. She moves and is facing me, her beautiful face tear stained. I sigh and kiss her on the nose. She opens her eyes and looks at me, slightly blushing. I smile and kiss her on the nose, her squeezing her eyes shut.

"Good morning, my Little Hunter." I whisper and she smiles at me.

"Good morning, Loke..." She says. I smile and hug her close to me. I kiss her forehead and breathe in her scent. She blushes and I kiss her forehead again.

"So, what should we do today?" She shrugs and I sit up, pulling her up with me. I brush some of (Y/n)'s (h/c) hair out of her face and kiss her on the nose.

"Maybe we can go into Earthland and tease some of my old fangirls?" She tilts her head slightly. I guess she doesn't remember the girls that pushed her away from me. I smirk and kiss her neck.

"Loke... Please not now..." I sigh and kiss her cheek.

"Alright... So what are we doing today?" She pauses for a second and smiles brightly. She jumps out of bed and changes, me having blood dripping from my nose. (Y/n) grabs my hand and pulls me from the bed.

"Alright, go get dressed!" I nod and start changing. I turn around to see (Y/n) with her eyes squeezed shut and a blush clear on her face. I smirk and kiss her nose.

"So, what did you say you wanted to do today?" She smiles and looks at me... Her eyes... They don't show what her smile does...

"What you wanted to do..." Now I can show those damned sluts who I really love! I smile and pull her closer to me. She may not have enough magic energy to summon herself, so I'll just bring her with me. We disappear and reappear in Lucy's bedroom. She's still asleep, so we'll just sneak out.

"Come on, (Y/n)! I know exactly where those girls will be!" She nods and I grab her hand, pulling her along. We walk down the crowded street. There are a few whistles directed to (Y/n). I wrap a protective arm around her waist and we continue walking.

"So, do you want anything to eat?" She nods and I grin. Perfect! We walk and make it to the guild hall, where we can get food for free. Plus, it's where those girls hang out. I open the doors and a table flies at our heads. I pull
(Y/n) away and we walk to the bar. (Y/n) hesitantly sits down and I sit next to her.

"Hey, Loke! (Y/n)! You guys here to eat?" I nod and Mirajane smiles. She leaves and comes back with two bowls of her famous soup. (Y/n) smiles and whispers a thank you. Mirajane grins happily in return and clasps her hands together.

"Let me know if I can improve, ok?" My love nods and takes a bite of the soup. Her face lights up, but there's still that tinge of sadness in her eyes... That proof of her pain...

"This is delicious! You don't need to improve on anything!"

"Aw, thank you! What about you, Loke? How does it taste?" I take a spoonful and shove it into my mouth. It's good... But I know (Y/n) can make it just a bit better... Maybe that's my heart talking, I don't know...

"It's good..." I trail off and stare at the girls whispering in the corner of the room. I smirk and pick up my spoon full of soup, putting it up to (Y/n)'s lips. Her face turns red and her mouth slightly opens. I slip the spoon inside of her mouth and take it out again.

"Loke, you really don't have to..." Mirajane notices the girls whispering and she goes into her she devil form... Damn, this is scary!!

"What are you girls talking about, hm? Trying to break my OTP? I'LL BREAK YOUR FACES!!!" She punches the wall next to them and the girls all come and hide behind me. I grab (Y/n)'s hand and pull her away from them to let Mirajane do what she does best: Fangirl and rage about shipping.

"DON'T YOU EVER TRY AND BREAK MY SHIPS AGAIN!!!!" (Y/n) shivers in fear and I hug her close to me. I kiss her cheek and nuzzle my face into her hair.

"It's alright, (Y/n)... This is how Mirajane is when you mess with her ships..." I whisper and she nods. I kiss her on the lips and I can tell her face is blood red. I pull away and laugh at her reaction. She looks a bit drained. Did she run out of magic energy?

"Sorry, Loke. Our day's being cut short. I'm just that weak, I couldn't even stag here an entire hour." I smile and kiss her nose, again.

"That's ok. We can just have even more fun at home ~" I purr in her ear, and her face turns the darkest shade of red. I laugh and wave goodbye to Mirajane. We disappear just as Lucy comes barging into the guild. We reappear in (Y/n)'s room and I smirk.

I pin (Y/n) to her bed and kiss her on the lips. She blushes as I trace my tongue on her bottom lip. I rub my hands along her sides and straddle her waist. (Y/n) squeaks, which gives me enough time to slip my tongue in her mouth. She moans a bit and I pull away from her. I lay down beside her and pull her close to me.

"Your face is really red, (Y/n)..."

"Sorry..."

"No, don't be! It's adorable!"

"Really...?" I nod and kiss her cheek. She blushes and cuddles closer to me. We just lay there for a while, enjoying each other's presence.

"I love you..." I whisper in her ear and kiss her cheek, again.

"I love you, too..."

"I love you, more..." She sighs and looks me in the eyes.

"I love you more than the stars..."
