Slipping some shorts on and putting your hair in a messy bun you left your little home heading upstairs with a basket of wet washing. 'I hope she is in and not at the guild!' realising that you should have checked before washing Freed's clothing.

Knock loudly on the door, a little nervous about the fact the was a hunk of a green-haired god in your bathtub, that you'd kissed. It wasn't long until the curvy blonde opened the door, her chocolate orbs staring at you before a smile formed on her pretty face.

"Oh hey (f/n), u ok?" beaming brightly at you, Lucy opens the door wider where you can see Natsu, Happy, Ezra and Gray all sat there drinking and eating.

"(f/n) come sit have tea with us and there is cake!" Ezra moves to the side so you can take a seat between her and Natsu before she shovels more strawberry cake between her greedy lips.

"Ermm well sure, maybe in a second," smiling nervously at the group, turning back to Lucy to ask if you can use her tumble dryer.

"These aren't your clothes!" Lucy had already begun taking the clothes out of the basket before you'd had a chance to ask, as you'd used it on multiple occasions.

"Why do you have Freed's clothes?" Ezra stands up walking over to the scene, wanting the gossip and the drama that you know doubt was hiding. The whole group's ears perked up since you were known for being too lost in books to have anyone at your place.

"Well...it's not what it looks like. He erm bumped into me whilst walking home yesterday and he ermm passed out. So, I didn't know where he lived and he kis...slept at mine and I washed his clothes and he is currently bathing and oh my god it's not what it looks like!" your face is bright red like the reequip mages hair, you bury it deep within your hands trying to hide just how flustered you'd become.

"Woow I didn't know you even knew Freed!" this from the half-naked ice mage who decided to walk over to where you were stood, whilst Natsu continued to eat but not Erza cake. Natsu knew that would mean his funeral would follow soon after the sweet treat past his lips.

"Well, I didn't I met him yesterday, he was hurt when fighting Mira," Trying with all your might, to defend yourself, but you could tell Erza wasn't buying any of it.

"I want details!" It was a command; the woman's gaze was fixated on you. It was like she was staring into your very mind for the information herself.

"I told you everything!" you lied since you didn't want to embarrass yourself even more.

"No, you are withholding juicy information, (f/n)!" Just like you thought, Ezra, saw through your lie.

"Come on tell us!" this from Natsu who you thought was bored and eating, but the food was gone, so decided to join in on the group discussion of your love life.

"Shhhe likesss Himm!" the little blue cat Happy adds, making your face go to a new shade of red.

"Well he is cute and really good looking ... we kinda kissed and errm slept in the same bed wearing literally our underwear!" glancing at Lucy whilst you spoke, who was literally taking notes on your life for her book. Taking a deep breath, you sit on the sofa next to Natsu leaning your head on his shoulder. "That's everything I swear! Please, don't say anything!" they all nod but you couldn't look at them, so you didn't see the devilish grins on their faces.

"We won't say anything...you will need to come to a job with us," Natsu states since they'd been trying to get you to join Team Natsu for a while now.

"Ok fine! Lucy, are his clothes nearly done?" Huffing in defeat you look over to the blonde who was talking to Erza before her attention is turned back to you.

"5 mins," smiling sweetly at you, making you sigh.

"I should probably go check on him make sure he is ok. I kinda helped him in my tub and ran out the flat," your face going red again at revealing more juicy information, hoping but knowing it wouldn't have gone unnoticed.

"Go back! You helped him in the bath?" Ezra eyes gleaming for details again.

"I didn't see anything. I wasn't looking and the kiss was just a peck nothing too big or fancy!" jumping up you walk towards the door. "I'll be back" laughing nervously you leave the group there, who began discussing Freed and your relationship.

Walking downstairs you mentally slap yourself, knowing full well that Ezra will spill the gossip and Lucy will definitely tell Levy. Walking in the flat though, you go straight over to the bathroom door but don't go in.

"You ok in there?" Your voice travelled through the door, to no response in return. "Freed...everything ok?" sounding a little more nervous now, as you didn't know how injured the mage could still be.

After no response, you begin to panic, swinging the door with such force it almost comes off its hinges you run to the bath. Noticing his eyes were closed you began to feel a little uneasy.

"Freed, are you ok?" placing your soft hand on his forehead, you freeze in horror as his hand grabs your wrist, dragging you into the tub on top of him.

"I am now you're back!" His voice is like has a wolfish tone, before grabbing your face. In mere seconds you feel his lips hungrily against your, licking his tongue against your bottom plump lip for access.

In the heat of the moment, a tiny moan escapes parting your lips, giving him access as his tongue seeks out yours to dance together. It wasn't for long a loud knock at the door brings you both back to your senses, however, you both choose to ignore it at first.

The two of you continued with the kiss, straddling the naked man in your bath as your own clothes clung to your body. However, the loud know persists again a few times making you pull away and look into the man's blue eyes.

"I should get that!" you pull away as he looks at you.

"Ok I'll get out and we can continue in a moment?" his husky voice wasn't nearly as done with your kisses.

"Do you need a hand?" changing the subject now that you've been brought back to your sense. Freed shakes his head before the person at the door knocks again.

Having no choice, you run to the door soaking wet 'My poor carpets!' crying internally to yourself. Opening the door looking at who it was, you go to slam it shut again to no avail since the people on the other side are a hell of a lot stronger than you.

The force sends you flying forward, almost falling on your face, but you manage to recover before turning to your intruders. "Guys, what the hell?" sounding annoyed but also embarrassed at your state in front of Natsu, Happy, Lucy, Gray and Ezra barge into your flat.

"We were in the neighbourhood and thought we would check on a guild member!" Ezra looking around your little home, clearly looking to see where Freed was.

"Wow, this is cute!" Lucy looks around at your home since she'd not been in ages.

"It's similar to yours," your tone sarcastic, whilst she places Freed's clothes on the side and everyone else takes a seat, making themselves at him.

"Why are you wet..." Natsu asks just at the point Freed walks in, looking as hot as ever in just a towel and his hair in a big messy bun.

"Who was it (f/n)? You've been gone a whil..." Freed then finally looks up going red, at his guildmates seeing him practically naked, and after what had happened yesterday.

"Oh, ermm hello! Nice to see you. Sorry for the whole thing yesterday. I hope you will forgive me. I've seen the error of my ways," Quickly trying to turn around his face bright, as his voice gives away how flustered the usually composed man was.

"Ah don't sweat it, man! We all do stupid things... so you and our little light rune mage are close?" this was from Gray.

"Ermm well, she helped me when I was in need yesterday and she was kind enough to nurse me back to health," Freed turns and looks you in the eyes, smiling softly bring a smile to your own lips.

"Maybe you should get changed? You're soaking after you erm dropped that drink down you." Freed stated whilst you just literally facepalmed at how obvious it was, that you had indeed not spilt a drink.

"Your clothes are ready if you want to get dressed Freed," Point to the side where Lucy placed them.

"Thank you again! I will cook something in your kitchen, to say thank you. Neither of us has eaten." Freed comments before smiling to himself and heading to the bedroom to get changed.

"GREAATTT I'M STRAVVING!" Natsu shouts before Lucy smacks him on the back of the head.

"We're stopping for a drink then leaving!" she smiles with a smile to you, of course, she wants all the details and Ezra has the same face.

"Ok, I will make them in a second let me go get changed" Sighing in defeat you go to your room where Freed is stood there.

"So, this is awkward!" he smirked seductively.

"Tell me about it! I don't know anything about you and yesterday you were my enemy," Sighing whilst going into your drawers to grab some clean comfy, no need getting fully dressed. Just as your about to leave to the bathroom, Freed grabs your wrist.

"You know I don't normally do this, right?" There was a look of worry in his eye that had the smallest beauty mark framing it.

"It's ok, you don't need to apologise. You don't know me, and I was just there." to be honest you knew you looked a mess right now. Soggy and most likely yesterday's make up running down your face, that you'd not removed last night.

"No, you were my first kiss as well! I was wondering do you want to get to know me better and maybe you know, be mine? I know it's sudden, but you seem perfect for me. Our magic is similar and you're so beautiful, even without trying and well I'm falling for you big time!" Freed finished his cheeks blushed red, unable to make eye contact with you.

"I don't know. I think you just really hit your head and you're confused. It's ok though you seem nice and stuff and well ermm..." you didn't have time to finish.

"I'm not confused (f/n)!" he bends to your level, grabbing both your hands pulling them to his lips, kissing the back of them softly, "Please give me a chance?" he pleads as his blue orbs stare into your (e/c) eyes, waiting for you to answer him.

"Ok but I don't know any of this stuff, ok and well I'm not rushing even though we've already kissed." you pout, knowing you wanted to more but wanted to take you time getting to know each other first.

"That's fine with me, but you know I'm going to kiss you every day, right?" Freed smirks leaning forward kissing your lips softly.

Your eyes are massive at his declaration, "So, can I call you my girlfriend?" The man looks nervous again, clearly, he'd never asked anyone before.

"Ok I guess so...we should go back out there." you point behind you, extremely nervous and not wanting this conversation with a dragon slayer in the other room. Nodding he puts his clothes on as you head to the bathroom to get changed, before heading out you notice Freed is already in your kitchen looking for stuff to make your guests drinks.

"Here, let me help since you don't know where things are," you smile as you reach into the cupboard as his hand reaches for the same thing.

"You two are adorable by the way!" you hear the busty blonde behind you, making you freeze. Turning to see Lucy and Ezra standing there.

"OH hey! errm yeh so drinks will be a second. Freed why don't you go sit with them you're a guest after all in my little home yes my home." you start to panic he just nods and starts talking to Lucy and Ezra.

Taking deep breaths, you plate some cake you made up and put drinks out. "Here you go, guys, Ezra your favourite!" passing some strawberry cake.

"So, you guys are an item now right we heard everything with Natsu's hearing. Both of your faces go bright red.

"Yes!" you both say in unison taking your man's hand in yours, as you rest your head against his shoulder, with the look of new love in both of your eyes.
