Laxus P.O.V

Freed's kinda cute.... wait... WHAT, no bad Laxus, I yelled at myself. I can't like Freed, can I? No, I can't we're teammates, plus, he could never see me the same way.

"You okay there thunder thighs", Blondie asked "Your face is all red"

I looked up at her and have a small nod.

I can't like him, no matter how beautiful his greenish blue eyes are, no matter how much I love his undying devotion. I ... who am I trying to kid? I've liked Freed ever since he joined the guild. I guess over the years I've been struck by love.

"us... axus... Laxus... LAXUS... LAXUS THUNDER THIGHS"

"Huh, what", I look around me, completely confused. Oops, I guess I was lost in thought

"We've made it", Lucy said, only now do I realize she's standing in front of me.

"Oh", I stood up and grabbed my things and got off the train.

We've been walking for about 15 before the Heartfillia mansion comes in to view.

"Holy mother of Mavis, you used to live here", Bix asks. Blondie nodded, heading towards a statue.

"Hi mom, just telling you we're going to be using the forest behind the mansion", Blondie said, never taking her eyes off the statue.

"So now where are we heading", Evergreen asked. Blondie looked at Ever before walking to the forest that peeked around the right side of the house. After about an hour of walking, and listening to someone (*cough cough* Evergreen *cough cough*) complain we made it to a river. Blondie nodded before walking into the river.

"What are you doing", Evergreen asked.

"What does it look like", Blondie answered back. Wow okay, Ms. Sassy.

"It looks like you're trying to cross", Bixlow answered.

"No, not exactly", Blondie replied, "Ah, found it"

Sticking her hand in the water, she pulled out a blue key.

"I, Lucy Dreyar, Open the gate of the water dragon, Ripley"

The water from the river begins to swirl, shooting upward looking like a water tornado. After a couple of moments, the water begins to take shape. All of a sudden a dragon is standing right in front of me.

It was black with a teal, almost glow, surrounding it. It's massive wings tucked against itself. Its head bowed to Lucy level.

"Lady Lucy Dreyar", the dragon spoke, "It is good to see you"

"Hold on, you said Dreyar, don't you mean Heartfillia" Freed asked. The dragon looked at Lucy.

"They don't know ", he asked Lucy.

"Well... you see"

A/N I will update the rest later. Thank you.
