Laxus Dreyar and Mirajane Strauss

One-Shot 13

In a gorgeous green, strapless dress with matching heels and her hair tied high up in a flowing, long ponytail, Mirajane twirled around the mirror once, catching the sight with a small smile.

In just a few minutes, Fairy Tail would be hosting a party inviting and waiting for quite a few other guilds that they knew.

Sabertooth, Blue Pegasus and Lamia Scale were only a few of the guilds that had been invited.

Crime Sorciere had promised to drop by too and Mirajane smiled as she hummed to herself, fluffing her hair and letting the silky ringlets fall down her back.

The only group that might not be able, it had been rumoured, to make it to the party would be the Thunder Legion. This was something that had disappointed Mira quite a bit upon first hearing about it but she had forced herself to cheer up and continue with the preparations.

The guild counted on her to throw the best party ever.

It was within Fairy Tail's reputation, after all, to be the best in things like this get-togethers and large events of celebration.

Counting off the things to be done, Mirajane left her cozy apartment to enter the cool night breeze.

The guild hall was only a little distance away as she walked toward her second home, trying to keep in mind that they needed to restock on the back-up wine.

Cana was sure to be in good spirits since Bacchus would be there.

Mirajane stepped into the warm guild hall, carefully stepping over the empty bottles on her way to the bar, "Am I late, Kinana? I'm so sorry..."

Kinana looked over with a smile, looking beautiful herself in her long, pink gown, "Not at all, Mira. The party just got started. It seems that Blue Pegasus is late but that hasn't stopped the others..."

Mirajane laughed, her voice soft and lovely, "Just like Fairy Tail then! Any sign of the Thunder Legion?"

Kinana shook her head, "No... I guess they couldn't make it after all..."

Mirajane nodded, trying not to let the disappointment show, "Alright..."

The guild's boistrous laughter got her jerking out of her saddened state of mind.

There were cups to fill and laughter to be added. Mirajane couldn't be upset at a time like then.

It was true that she had really wanted to see Laxus and his team at the party but it seemed as though that scene would not play.

Catching herself before she sighed, Mirajane turned to fix Lucy a strawberry shake as the blond stood chatting with Levy.

A hand pulled at her ear and Mirajane jumped before looking up to find Laxus giving her a cheeky grin.

"Hey. Too busy to notice me, huh?"

"L-Laxus," Mirajane blinked and then blinked again as she watched the much taller man lean himself against the wall beside her.

"Surprised?"

Mirajane nodded before her eyes caught Elfman arguing with Evergreen and Bickslow joining the others in the fun games they'd just begun.

Laxus shifted and Mirajane glanced over again to see his tired face stare down at her dress.

Mirajane swallowed before bumping him in the arm.

He blinked up as she walked past him to hand Lucy her drink and give Levy a smile.

Walking back, Mira found that the dragon-slayer had taken his usual place at his seat by the counter, elbow propped up as he rested his head in his hand.

The beautiful girl walked over to perch herself up on the counter, surprising him as she sat down, the folds of her skirt brushing against his arm, "I didn't expect to see the Thunder Legion back so soon."

"We didn't expect to be back," Laxus yawned as his eyes scanned the guild hall, "We finished early and Natsu is going to get himself killed from that height and Bickslow was the one who wanted to head back to the guild hall firs- what is Gajeel doing? I wanted to go to sleep but the others dra- Is that the old man next to Jet and Droy doing the hula dance?"

Mirajane giggled at his remarks as she moved a strand of her hair to behind her shoulder, "I'm glad you came by."

Laxus glanced up, "Yeah?"

Mirajane looked down at him to nod, "I was very happy to see you."

It seemed to take a moment for her words to sink in as the dragon-slayer watched her, "Oh."

The beautiful girl smiled as a soft breeze ruffled her hair.

Laxus swallowed before turning away, "So, what happens around here when I'm gone?"

Mira considered with a tilt of her head, "It's rather boring, I guess... Things are the same with Natsu and Gray fighting a lot... Cana's always around and Erza gets into the guild quite often too but... no one stays by me all the time..."

Laxus looked up once more.

"You're always around, Laxus. You sit at the counter all the time, that's what I mean."

She gave him another one of her charming smiles.

He pushed back from his seat making her heart stop for a few seconds.

Had she said something wrong?

She watched in apprehension as he turned around and walked closer, trapping her in as she sat on the counter.

Mirajane swallowed as his body pressed up against her legs, his breath mingling with hers as he brought his face close to hers and his hands reached up to cup her face.

Her thoughts raced as little things caught her attention like the way his rough fingers held her face gently or how his strong build seemed almost overpowering or how he still towered over her even when she sat on top of the counter.

"Guess I should have done this a while ago."

A shiver ran over her spine at the low tone his voice had dropped to.

"I would have," Laxus stroked the side of her face gently as he smirked, "if I'd known that you liked me too..."

Mirajane's eyes widened as a soft blush filled her cheeks, "I-"

Laxus stopped her with a kiss that made her cease thinking altogether.

She had fallen for someone and hadn't even realized it.

The two people broke apart and a soft giggle escaped Mirajane as her face still appeared flushed pink.

Laxus smiled.
