Of course Lily had to go running out in the rain AGAIN! He was so scared he ran away in fear and now Gajeel had to go looking for him.

Gajeel let out a heavy sigh as he exited his apartment. The rain poured down on his dark spiky hair making it stick to his face. He scowled wishing he had an umbrella which was something he didn't own. He kept walking.

"LILY!" He called out. Ugh that damn cat running off again! He heard noises coming from an alley way up ahead. "Awe your so cute! What is a pretty kitty like you doing out in the freezing cold?"

Gajeel's eyes widened. Maybe that was Lily that the voice was talking to? By now he was running through the rain, getting closer and closer to the dark back street. As he rounded the corner, skidding as he went. His foot landed in a big puddle, soaking his foot.

"Sh*t!" He cursed but kept going limping a few times from his foot having extra weight from being wet.

"LILY!" he called again. He heard a female voice make a gasp and the sound of feet padding on gravel. "Hello?" Gajeel called into the dark.

"Don't be afraid. I'm just looking for my cat." He continued. A few moments later a girl came out. She had (H/C) (H/L) hair and (E/C) eyes. In her arms was a black and white cat, whose eyes were closed and a soft continuous purr came off of its body. Gajeel's focus went on the animal.

"This is yours?" She asked snuggling the wet feline closer. "Yes." His reply was short as his patience was running thin. He was not fond of the rain in the first place and standing in it just made him even angrier. He held his arms out signalling the female to hand him the animal but she kept it. Close to her chest as she was keeping the feline warm.

"You know you really shouldn't let your cat out when it's raining. Cats hate rain." She said.

"Well it's not my fault. The damn cat ran off by his self." Gajeel muttered under his breath. He sighed after a minute of silence.

"Hey lady are you going to give me Lily or not? Come on its cold and gloomy out. I just wanna go home."

"But she's sooo cute!" The girl squeals petting the drenched fur ball.

"He Is so cute." Gajeel corrected. "Come on please?" He pushed again.

"Aww. Okay fine!" She finally gave in. Dropping the cat into the iron dragon slayers arms. He walked off back to his house but she stayed there for a minute, her head tilted up at the sky.

"Uh... lady you coming?" Gajeel asked as he looked over his shoulder.

"Yeah. I just really like the rain." She responded as she began walking.
Gajeel started walked again. He was slightly farther up. Gajeel's existed the alley way and now he was on the Main Street. Just a few blocks left until he and his kitty was home. He kept looking over his shoulder and the female was always behind him. Every turn he would do, she would be on his tail. He would turn right. She would turn right. He would turn left. She would turn left. Gajeel was getting alittle scared. Was this lady following him? Finally, he came up to his apartment. Taking out his key, he put it in the lock and turned it, unlocking his door. But before he stepped in he noticed the lady pushing open the door of the apartment across from him. So she lives there? Why haven't I met her before? Taking a quick I glance into her apartment, he could see boxes scattered in the room. Some were open and some were still closed.

"Um hey?" He heard the female perk up.

"Yeah?" He questioned.

"Just to let you know. My names not lady. It's (Y/N) and I Just moved in here ."
