Chapter Ten || Midnight Balcony

~Chapter Ten~ ~Midnight Balcony~ ~Levy P.O.V.~

I woke up in the hotel's bed. That's kinda funny because I don't remember falling asleep. Or entering the hotel at all. And why do half these chapters start with someone waking up? Whatever. I got up and glanced at the clock. It was midnight. I saw the door leading to the balcony open and entered. I saw James, looking up at the stars, deep in thought.

I walked over and stood next to him. "Whatcha thinkin about?" I asked. James looked startled by my presence. "Nothing really..." He ansered. "Oh c'mon, you have to be thinking about something!" I said, lightly pushing him with my non-broken hand. When did I break my hand exactly? And jeez, what's up with this headache. James laughed. "Do you remember what happened last night?" James asked. I shook my head. "All I remember is you slapping me." I responded. James laughed once more. "Sorry about that." He said. "It's fine." I replied.

We both looked up at the stars for what felt like hours. We stared in silence and in awe. Until he decided to break that silence. "I failed to kill you. I failed to kill one hundred wizards. I failed to be a hero. I-I don't deserve to live..." He mumbled. "Don't say that!" I yelled. He looked at me, shocked.

"You deserve to live, even if you failed to kill me, or if you failed to be a hero. Y-you're still my hero." I stammered. James smiled and looked down. "Levy... I'm sorry for trying to kill you. I'm sorry for torturing you, I'm sorry for bringing you here, I'm sorry for everything." James announced as a single tear fell down his cheek. He smiled at me. "It's fine, don't apologize. I like it here." I comforted. James nodded and stared up at the starry sky.

Then he looked up at me. I smiled at him. He stared into my eyes and I stared into his. We stayed like that for a few moments before he leaned in to kiss me. At first I was shocked and stared at him wide eyed, but then I kissed back. The kiss was soft. He pulled away and stared back up at the stars. A blush found its way onto my cheeks. "Sorry..." He mumbled.

~James P.O.V.~

WHY THE FLYING FUCK DID I DO THAT OH MY GOD I'M SUPPOSED TO KILL HER AND I KISSED HER? AND WHAT'S WITH THE WEIRD FEELING IN MY CHEST AND THE HEART SKIPPING A BEAT, THAT'S NOT NORMAL.

"I-I'm going to bed." Levy mumbled. I nodded and she left. I watched her leave. She's so beautiful. I think I've fallen for her. Yes. I've fallen for Levy McGarden. I climbed into bed next to her. She was already asleep. I smiled. She's beautiful.

~Time Skip~

I woke up and Levy was already awake. She was cooking something in the kitchen area. "I'm gonna go call Danny." I announced. I left the hotel room and walked down to the lobby. I grabbed the phone and dialed Danny's number.

"Hey Danny." I said when he picked up.

"Hey James, how's New York?" Danny asked.

"Pretty good. Levy got into a barfight yesterday and broke her hand. She doesn't remember a thing."

"Wow."

"Yeah. And we kissed last night."

"Really?"

"Yeah..."

"That's so awesome man! Congrats!"

"Congrats on what?"

"That was your first kiss, right?"

"Oh yeah. Forgot." I chuckled.

Suddenly someone kicked me in the gut, really hard. Like seriously fucking hard. And damn that hurt. Like hell. I dropped the phone and clutched my stomach. "How dare yo-" I looked up at my attacker. It was Gajeel! "You fucking bastard." He yelled.
