Love and Hate (GaLe fanfic)

Truthful Reunion

~Gajeel POV~

It seemed like a million eyes were on me, including Levy's. "How many times are you gonna make me say it, squirt?" I asked, looking down at the small girl. "You. I'll kill you!" The pink haired boy shouted, flailing his fists into the air. "Get down here and fight me like a man!" I sighed and dropped to the ground, crossing my arms over my chest. He charged, punching me harshly. I felt and heard a sickening crack, and fell. "I won't fight you. I came to apologize, I did." I rubbed my jaw gently, wincing as I moved over the bruising area. "I am sorry, squirt. I got carried away." I looked down, walking away.

~Levy POV~

He keeps apologizing. "Natsu, stop it!" I yelled as he chased after Gajeel. "He said he was sorry." Natsu stopped in his tracks, still growling. "He hurt you Levy. I can't forgive that." Gajeel jumped, landing easily on a rooftop and walking along them. I pushed past the pink haired mage and walked after him. "Wait up!" I called after him, watching him stop and turn slowly. "What do you want, shrimp? I gotta go." He grumbled lowly. "Thanks for apologizing, I guess." I crossed an arm across my chest, holding my shoulder. Gajeel looked stunned, shocked even. "I thought you hated me." He said, sighing softly. "I don't hate you so much, I just don't like what you did." I smiled slightly, chuckling softly. The same blonde mage from before ran up, looking warily at him before grabbing my arm. "Come on, Levy. Master wants you." She tugged me gently away from Gajeel, his eyes locked onto me the entire time.
