~Chapter Five~ ~Crimson Peak~ ~Gajeel P.O.V.~

I stood beside Shrimp, refusing to leave her side. I won't leave her. No. Not again. I can't. I miss her. So much. I don't know why. Lily walked into the room and sat next to me. "Any luck?" He asked. I shook my head. I buried my face into my hands, a tear strolled down my cheek. Soon more followed.

Lily noticed I was crying. "It's gonna be alright. Don't worry, she'll wake up. I promise." Lily said, his hand on my shoulder. I shook my head. "What if she doesn't? It's all my fault, I should've went on the damned mission with her!" I yelled.

Lily stared at me for a few moments. "I miss her too, but you can't blame yourself." He said. I nodded, looking up at him. Tears still streamed down my face, but I wiped them off with the back of my hand. Lily smiled at me and I smiled back. That damned cat can just be too fucking adorable sometimes.

~Levy P.O.V~

I'm terrified of horror movies. I don't wanna see Crimson Peak, Stephen King said it was terrifying! Stephen King! That means it's deathly terrifying! And I cannot be alone with this guy at night. No, no, no, no, no, he'll obviously kill me!

Why Danny. Whyyyyyyy? Well, at least we still have about an hour or two before the movie. "I'm gonna take a shower." I announced. James nodded, obviously not paying attention. I rolled my eyes and walked into the bathroom. The walls were green tiles, the floor was pine. The shower was glass. If James walked in here he could obviously see me while I was taking a shower.

I locked the door and got undressed. I opened the glass door and walked in, closing the door behind me. I turned on the hot water as steam slowly filled the bathroom.

And hour later I turned off the water and grabbed a towel. My clothes are in the other room... Shit. I unlocked the door and walked out in a towel. "Hey James, can you pass me my suitcase?" I asked. He looked at me and just stared for a few moments.

~James P.O.V.~

"Hey James, can you pass me my suitcase?" I heard Shrimp ask. I looked up at her and she was in just a towel, her hair dripping wet. I stared at her for a moment. She looked... I don't know. I just... I think my heart skipped a beat seeing her like that. I don't know why. It just did.

I immediately shook my head at the thought. I grabbed her suitcase and threw it at her. "Here." I mumbled.

~Levy P.O.V.~ ((I'm sorry I just had to make that moment happen XD))

He threw my suitcase at me and I thankfully caught it. I grabbed a red t-shirt and jeans then reentered the bathroom. I put the clothes on and towel dried my hair, failing epically.

I hung the towel to dry and exited the bathroom. "How long before the movie?" I asked. James simply pointed to the clock. It was 5:30. "Oh. Wanna go out and get something to eat first?" I asked. "Whatever." He said. "I'll take that as a yes." I replied. He rolled his eyes.

"Let's go." He said, grabbing the room key, the tickets, his phone, and his wallet. I followed behind him and closed the door on our way out. When we entered the elevator I just had to ask. "Why didn't you kill me?"

He looked taken aback by the question. "W-well I kill wizards this way. Send them to California and kill them there where they have no magic. Danny wasn't supposed to find you. He's not supposed to know I'm a murderer." He casually responded. "But when Danny first introduced you... You sounded so... Kind." I said. He laughed.

"I am kind." He simply said. "Then why? Why kill?" I asked. It was obvious he was getting annoyed with all the questions. He smirked. "Because why not?" He replied.
