Disclaimer: Still don't own Fairy Tail.

Thanks for the reviews, favorites and follows.

A gentle breeze flew by Gajeel's face.

Gajeel hated gentle breezes.

Well, Gajeel pretty much hated everything at this point. Natsu could come up to him and admit Gajeel's superiority and Gajeel would still feel like he had a 200 pound load on his shoulder.

That was mainly because he was carrying a stripper(I'm just taking a wild guess that Gray weighs this much). Due to an argument about where to go next, Gajeel decided to physically force his opponent to his own destination.

"Oi! Let me down, Rusty!" Gray snarled, elbowing Gajeel in the side of the head

Gajeel released the Ice mage on the ground. Gajeel got too used to doing this with Levy whenever he wanted to go somewhere.

"Were still goin to my shop." Gajeel added, with a commanding sense.

"So I can watch you spend an hour looking over some drums." Gray stated back.

Gajeel eyebrow shot up in annoyance. He had been trying to get Levy to learn an instrument so she be back up for when he played. Gajeel thought this would be a good opportunity.

"Yea, because watching you stare at some fuckin dolls is so much more interesting (!)"

Gray shot his face up to Gajeel's. "You said that she liked dolls!"

"I meant pick one, not run a freakin comb through each of 'em!"

"You been about this much help today." Gray illustrated by showing a tiny cap between two of his fingers.

"What about you? Still haven't heard this big secret Levy has." The musician countered.

This somewhat stopped Gray. He hadn't thought through what he was going to tell Gajeel. This lie of his was becoming something of a concern to him.

Gray's smiled inside. "Maybe it's in one of the shops we were already in, but you, being the dumbass you are, rushed me out before I could tell you."

Gajeel kept his current expression, but was somewhat confused on the inside. Did he already see what Gray was talking about? He wasn't sure if this was true or if Gray was just trying to get back to his shop.

"You're probably just makin up shit." Gajeel didn't go up the trusting road so much.

"Fine! How about you show me what Juvia likes, if you're such a fricken genius."

"Told you about the doll store, didn't I?"

"You grunted and pointed at a row of shops!" Gray revised.

"Still counts." Gajeel argued. The iron dragon was just too preoccupied about this hidden Levy interest.

Gray rubbed the bridge of his nose. This had been their shopping routine. One would shop, the other would complain and they would have a verbal argument in the midst of other people, ending with Gajeel giving a 'The fuck you looking at?' stare, to any viewers.

Gajeel and Gray were both rethinking asking the other for help.

"Were getting nowhere." Gray admitted.

Gajeel was also realizing that fighting was just wasting time. "Still gotta decide where to go."

"Maybe we should split up." Gray stretched out his back.

Gajeel gave an affirmative nod. "Meet back here in an hour?"

"Should be enough time." Gray lied through his teeth. He would probably need the hour to come up with a better lie.

The two Fairy Tail mages began to walk in the opposite direction.

Juvia was very conflicted. On one hand, she had to help Levy with Gajeel. On the other, she would have to still keep an eye out for Gray-Sama's gift.

This thought was running through her head as the two of them explored a large instrument store.

"Gajeel already has a guitar." Levy alerted to Juvia.

"Juvia remembers that Gajeel-Kun tried other instruments."

Levy's eyes quickly darted towards a row of tin whistles. She suppressed a chuckle at the idea of Gajeel playing one of them. Levy also acknowledged a drum set in the corner of the room. She remembered Gajeel's hints to get her take the art up

"Some background noise would be awesome"

"You have good rhythm, Shrimp."

"Could really do with some back up…."

Levy imagined that Gajeel was about a day away from going 'I would fucking love it if you learned the drums, Ok Shrimp.'

It was as likely as Levy's attempts to broaden Gajeel's reading knowledge.

"Levy-San!" Juvia called over.

"Yes, Juvia?" Levy turned around to see Juvia holding a brown, wooden made classic guitar. "I think Gajeel prefers the his one."

"Juvia knows, but she thought that Gray-Sama would look amazing playing it." Juvia quickly zoned out into an idea of Gray serenading her on their anniversary.

Levy was pretty sure that Gray couldn't even play guitar, but was interrupted by a second Juvia exclamation.

"Ah, Gray-Sama would look so beautiful with this in his hand." Juvia yelled, holding a conductors baton.

Levy was used to this. She was Juvia's next door neighbor since the rain woman moved in. Levy was completely use to Juvia's admiration to Gray and secretly admired her straightforwardness. She wished she could've been that honest with Gajeel at first.

Juvia was particularly glad about her adjacent tenant. Most didn't know that Gray wasn't Juvia's only concern, she was also looking for someone for her dear friend Gajeel. Juvia always thought Levy would be a perfect match for Gajeel and used living next to her to build Gajeel up to Levy, becoming friends with her in the process.

Levy hardly needed any building up to ask Gajeel out , only a bit of courage. The book enthusiast was over the moon when Gajeel asked her out, finding out later that Juvia had a hand in it. Levy repaid the favor by giving Juvia the opportunity for dinner with Gray. The two had bonded over their assistance between one another.

Lucy may have been her best friend, but Juvia was certainly an important one.

"Juvia, have you heard from Lu-Chan?" Levy only realized that she hadn't seen her all day.

"Love rival is on a job with Natsu-San." Juvia informed. While it was common knowledge that Lucy was in a relationship with Natsu, she still kept an eye on her.

Levy hand rubbed the back of her head. It was odd being friends with both Lucy and Juvia at times.

Levy shook her head. She wasn't finding anything for Gajeel in here and Juvia seem to be having similar luck.

"I think the shop where Gray got his necklace isn't too far from here." Levy had a feeling that Juvia could find something for him there.

Juvia twisted around in a dramatic manner. "Juvia could get her and Gray-Sama matching jewelry."
Juvia loved showing off how her and Gray were a couple.

Levy thought it was adorable. Recently she had begun to pick up Juvia's imagination.

Which was the reason for her next idea.
