Gajeel's POV

I am really tired today. It's Sunday, and I haven't been able to sleep since shrimp kissed me. I couldn't stop thinking about it. She kissed me! She actually kissed me! What now? Are we dating? Was she just being friendly? More important, do I like her? She is cute and all, but do I really like her? My head started to hurt to much, so I had to cool down. I called over Natsu and the others. I need something else on my mind right now. 

After five minutes they turned up on the doorstep. We went down in the basement and turned on a game. We were playing GTA. But after half an hour Natsu knew something was wrong. "Dude." He said, pausing the game. "Why did you call us here?" I looked at him. "Because I wanted to?" It came out more as a question. "No. That's not it." Jellal said, and put away his controller. "Tell us." Gray joined in to, and they all began to talk a hole in my head. "FINE!" I shouted. "I called you here because my head was so full, and I wanted something to distract me." They looked at each other. "What are you thinking about?" I looked away from them. "Nothing important." Laxus walked over to me. 

"Come on. Tell us. Did it have something to do with Levy?" I blushed. "How did you know?" Laxus had a smirk on his face. "A magician never reveals his secrets." I looked over at Jellal. "Mira called him earlier today. She was screaming something about Gale and ships. Don't really know it all, but Laxus lost his hearing on the left ear for around an hour. Mira then said something about Levy and you." Laxus sweatdropped. "Yeah. But still. It is about Levy. So come on!" I groaned. "Fine. After I saved her yesterday from getting raped, I drove her home. When she jumped off, she thanked me for driving her. She then kissed my cheek. And then she turned around and walked away!" 

My so called 'friends' were shocked for a few seconds, before their faces morfed into smirks. I was getting a bit scared now. "So," Natsu said. "You are thinking about if you like her or not?" I slowly nodded. Gray patted my back. "Don't worry. Let's hear it now then. How do you feel about her?" I looked at him. "I felt really happy when she kissed me, but also shocked. I was stunned she actually kissed me. It was so warm and soft. Now I really want to kiss her. She always pop up in my head and makes my heart beat, and m whole body heats up."

Gray patted me again. "Good. Now, close your eyes and tell us how you think about Levy." Weird, but okay. I closed my eyes and leaned back in the bean bag. "She is way smarter than me, but still decent and dumb. Her smile is warm, and her eyes are so big and sweet. She is kind and funny, as well as bold and fiesty. When she is talking to me, her voice is just so soft. Her whole figure screames cute and nice. But she isn't weak. I think she is really strong, but just hide it really well." I sight and open my eyes. Natsu and Jellal were staring at me. Laxus and Gray were thinking. "What?" I said annoyed. Natsu snapped out of it. "Dude. You got it bad. You don't just like her, you LOVE her." 

My eyes got wide. "NO! I can't love her! She would never love me back anyway." Laxus snorted. "Dude. She kissed you. She could just walk away, but she stopped and kissed you. I think that's saying something." I nodded. "Yeah. Or, she was just thanking me for saving her from getting raped. OR she just wanted to finish the dare we were suppost to do." They nodded. "We need some expert help are we gonna solve this." Natsu said. "I'm calling Luce." He grabbed his phone, but I stopped him. "Are you crazy salamander? Bunny girl is a friend of shrimp. Don't call her. And anyway, I don't need to think anymore. I may like her, but she will never like me back. So I just have to stay away from her, and things will go back to normal."

Salamander put his phone away slowy. "But Metal-head. Don't you have her as a tutor?"

TIMESKIP: Next day


Levy's POV

I walked to school as normal. Gajeel did not pick me up, and I am really happy for that. I can't face him right now. I got to the place Lu told me to meet her and waited. But she never came. I got angry. Just as I was about to walk away, a person came running towards me. I didn't see who it was because of the sun. But once it came closer I realised it wasn't Lucy. The person was to big. When the person stopped infront of me to take a breath, I saw who it was. 

"G-GAJEEL??!!"

I screamed his name as he looked at me. He had a shocked face. "Shrimp? What are you doing here? Salamander told me he wanted to see me here now." I looked away from him. "Lucy told me to meet her here today." It took me a few seconds to understand. "They tricked us." I said. Gajeel groaned. "Once I get my hands on them...." He started to mumble lowly. I didn't hear what he said, but I think I'm good not knowing.

After a few seconds I realized that Gajeel were standing in front of me. I blushed and turned to walk away. But one of Gajeel's hands stopped me. I turned around and saw him blush to. "W-what?" I said. He let go of my hand and looked at the ground. "W-Why did you kiss me that day?" Crap! What am I gonna say? That I have a huge crush on him? No way! "I-I told y-you. I d-don't like u-unfinished stuff. So that's w-why I k-kissed y-you." Damn I suck at lying. Gajeel was quiet. I don't like it. He wasn't looking at me. Just the ground. "Gajeel?" I asked slowly. "Are you alright?" He nodded. "Let's go to school." With that he turned around and walked away from me. 

What's wrong with him?


Gajeel's POV

What's wrong with me? Why did I feel like a broken stick when she said that? She said that she only kissed me because she wanted to finish the dare. So why do I feel so sad?"

"Let's go to school." I turned around and started walking. I heard footsteps, so she was walking after me. When we got to the class I turned around. "Shrimp..." I started, but stopped and just walked in. I walked over to salamander and punched him. He got up from the ground and smiled at me. "What the hell!" I screamed. Stripper answered. "You needed that. And the girls had already planned it when we got to your place yesterday. All we did was help them out. Did you know Levy freaked out when she kissed you?" I didn't know. "Why?" I said, as I dragged out a chair and sat down. 

"No idea. Ask her." They said and pointed to the girls. Shrimp and Bunny-girl had the same class as us. They were talking quietly in the other end of the room. Shrimp was angry, but Bunny-girl were just smiling. I turned back around. "Know what? Just forget I ever talked to you guys about this. She only kissed me because of the dare. She told me." The guys looked disapointed. "And anyway. I'm gonna ask gramps to quit this tutor stuff. I don't need it." They all opened their mouthes to tell me I did, but the teacher came in, and they stopped. I sat down and tried to focus on the teacher, but I just lost focus every time. I had a weird feeling in my chest. Like my heart is trying to get out. Why is it so painful? And why do I think of shrimp?
