Did I Seriously?

A few days of rest and I was back to my original self. Stretching my arms above my head as I walk through town to find some supplies, "Hm. I wonder how Sakura and Lily are doing."

As I walk down the streets of Magnolia, I hear someone calling for me, "(Y/N)! Wait Up!"

I turn around and see Lucy running towards me, "Oh. Hey Lucy. What's up?"

She smiles at me as she reaches into her bag to pull out a stack of papers, "Here. I was wondering if you could proofread this for me. Levy is on a mission with Shadow Gear for a while and Gajeel said you love reading."

'Gajeel said that?'

"Um. Sure. It might take a while, but I'll do it for you." I smile softly at her.

She throws her arms around me with a huge smile on her face, "That you so much, (Y/N)! Take as long as you need!"

I hug her back and smile softly, "It's no big deal girl."

As she walks off, I start reading her work, 'Hm. So it's about an invisible thief, huh? This should be interesting.' As I read, I start walking again, but this time, I walk back to my place. Not even noticing the Iron Dragon Slayer watching me from the shadows.

(Gajeels P.O.V.)

I watch as (Y/N) starts walking back home, 'I still can't believe she's back in my life.' I sigh and follow her from the shadows.

As we got closer to her house, she stops and looks up at the sky. Her beautiful (h/l), (h/c) hair blowing in the soft breeze, "You know, you kinda stink, Gajeel." And with that, I'm lifted into the air by a tree branch and brought over to her. She looks at me with those beautiful (e/c) eyes and smiles softly, "You can't really hide from me that easily."

I sigh softly, "At least I tried, right?"

She giggles, "Try harder next time."

The tree branch that was holding me let go and I fall on my head. She giggles some more as I sit up, rubbing my head, "Yeah, yeah, yeah. Keep laughing."

"Sorry. It's just too funny knowing you're trying to be sneaky. It's kinda cute." She starts walking again as I stand up.

"Wait. What?" I run to catch up to her, "You think I'm cute?" I ask with a grin.

She sighs and shakes her head, "Now you're just trying to put words in my mouth. I said it's cute that you're trying to be sneaky."

I chuckle a bit, "Oh yeah?"

She grins a little, "That's right. Besides, you're not cute." My heart started to shatter until she spoke again, "You're sexy."

And with that, she vanished in a poof of smoke, 'Did she just say what I think she said?'

((Y/N)s P.O.V.)

I appear in my house and lean against the door, "I can't believe I said that to him." Running my fingers through my hair, I start freaking out, "DID I SERIOUSLY SAY THAT TO HIM?!?!"
