Chapter 3
As Kate, Layla and Igneel had their plans sorted out, it was time for Igneel to get Luke to agree to come to the park at eight.
'Oi Luke! You up here?' Igneel asked as he walked the stairs to the second floor of the guild.
'Like you wouldn't know that...' Like replied sarcastically.
'I'm sure you were listening up to some point of our conversation?' Igneel asked with an amused look on his face.
'Yeah... And you want to know what i think of this plan of yours?' Luke replied.
'I know you're gonna show up... Or else Layla will kill you for hurting her sister..' Igneel replied.
'Yeah yeah... I'll be there, so don't worry.' Luke looked down at where Layla and Kate were sitting and blushed.
'Like i'd let this change go to waist..' Luke sighed.
'You know i like her and you know how i am with her...' Luke added as he turned to look at his brother.
'Yeah... I know you best... It's painful to see you two like this any longer so we desisted to push gently...' Igneel replied.
'Thanks for that bro.. Hopefully i don't screw up badly today... 8pm was it?' Luke sighed.
'Yeah, don't be late.. We'll know...' Igneel replied and patted Luke on the shoulder.
Down at the bar, two sister were talking about the same subject.
'What if he doesn't show up?' Kate asked Layla as a tear crawled up on her eye.
'He'll be there... Or i'll kill- seriously injure him..' Layla replied and gave her sister a smile.
'Igneel is taking care of it.. He'll get that emotionally oblivious idiot of a Dragon slayer to come there..' Layla added.
'He's not an idiot... A little slow in the head maybe, but not an idiot..' Kate replied to her smiling sister.
'And that's what i like about him.. He'll be my idiot if anything after today..' Kate added.
'That's the spirit sis..' Layla hugged her.
'Hey girls! What ya talking about?' The daughter of Gray and Juvia had just sat next to them.
'Oh hey Yuki, about getting Kate and Luke finally together..' Layla replied with a smile.
Yuki is as you figured out before the daughter of Gray and Juvia. She's one year younger than the twins and uses snow magic. She's a polite and cheerful girl and has her mothers looks but Grays hair.
'Oh finally... You two have been too obvious of eachother for a long time...' Yuki replied.
'What about you and Jasmine, are things still going well?' Layla and Kate asked her.
'Mom and Dad found out that i'm dating her...' Yuki let a tear roll over her cheek.
'So they had you break up!' Layla and Kate asked in unison.
'No.. Dad was against it at first but mom got him to come around. Mom told him that if it's real love it doesn't matter if the sex is the same.' Yuki replied.
'Then there's nothing to cry about is there?' Kate asked.
'Well they want me to take her home to meet her officially as my girlfriend..' Yuki replied.
'And i don't know if she'll come.. And i'm afraid to ask..' Yuki added.
'Don't worry Yuki, i'm sure she'll come.' Layla said and hugged her.
'Yo! What's going up here?' Igneel asked as he saw the girls talking as he came back down.
'Yuki's parents found out she's going out with Jasmine...' Kate replied.
'Ouch... That bad huh?' Igneel sighed.
'No, just that she has to get Jas to go over to her house to meet them..' Kate said.
'What about Luke? Did you get him to come?' Kate asked.
'Don't worry, he'll be there.' Igneel replied.
'Thanks Igneel! I owe you one...' Kate said as she hugged him.
hr
Around 8pm at the park. Luke was leaning at the nearby tree and waiting for Kate to come.
'Hope she shows up..' Luke thought as he waited some more.
Time was nearing 8:30 as Kate finally showed up.
'Sorry i'm late! Did you wait long?' Kate asked as she walked over to him.
Luke stared at her with his mouth wide open as she walked ove the moonlight revealing her beautiful black dress and her long black hair in one big braid over her shoulder.
'Ahh... No just got here... You look amazing...' Luke was now practically drooling over her.
'Tha-thanks Lu-Luke...' Kate replied.
'So i heard you wanted to talk?' Luke asked and tried to hide his blushing face under the shade of the tree.
'Igneel told you? I'll kill him!' Kate replied as in her anger she changed her body into iron scales.
'Oi! Calm down Kate! Ig didn't tell me anything...' Luke tried to calm her down.
'Sorry Luke...' Kate took down her iron armor and calmed down.
'I just heard you talking of you wanting to talk about something... sorry Dragon slayers have good hearing..' Luke said.
'Yeah.. I know.. So how much did you hear?' Kate asked in reply.
'Nothing i didn't like to find out...' Luke smiled at her.
'What? I don't get you at all?' Kate looked at him in confusion.
'I'm saying i like you too baka..' Luke said and pressed his lips on hers.
In surprise Kate first tried to get away but calmed down after she realized what had happened. A sudden confession from Luke! Can't be real, can it? But he's kissing me? So it must be true? After a short while had passed he let her out for air.
'Th-that was.. was...' Kate tried to get words out of her mouth.
'Great?' Luke added.
'Is this real or am i dreaming?' Kate asked.
'Want me to pinch you? I'll do it you know..' Luke replied with a sheepish grin on his face.
'Sure... Maybe i'll wake up..' Kate replied and as to her surprise Luke pinched her ass.
A millisecond later Kate had turned around and iron poled Luke to the stomach, sending him flying several feet backwards.
'What was that all about Kate? You told me to pinch you..' Luke asked as he was collecting his thoughts after he got up.
'For touching my ass... Before we have even had our first ki-ki-kiss!' Kate shouted and blushed so hard her face could rival the color of Erzas hair.
'Sorry sorry... My bad.. You just told me to pinch- Oi! We had our first kiss!' Luke replied as he walked over.
'We did? I thought i was dreaming..' Kate replied.
'Yes... And you were not dreaming... You want me to do it again?' Luke replied and pulled her close.
'Yeah, not that i know i'm not dreaming.' Kate replied.
As she did, Luke placed his hand on the back of her head and pulled her in for a deep passionate kiss.
hr
As the new couple walked around the town they found themselves face to face with their team-mates.
'I see you two are finally together?' Igneel teased them.
'Yeah.. Now you don't have to tease us about this...' Kate replied.
'What? We'll tease you even more because it took you this long to get together..' Igneel chuckled.
'Come on guys... Give us a break... We finally got together after all this time...' Luke said and hugged Kate.
'So you two eat yet?' Layla asked.
'No, we were just coming to get something to eat and then head home.' Luke replied.
'Great! Us too. Wont you join us?' Igneel said.
'Yeah sure, but would it not be much cheaper to do this the way we do it on missions...?' Luke asked.
'You are one romantic guy, you know that..' Kate replied.
'But i have to agree, we haven't been on any high paying missions lately so we are all low on jewels right? So why not do it today... And double date after a request?' Kate added.
Let me clear something here... The way they eat at missions is quite cleaver.. The boys use eachothers flames as food, while Layla uses her magic to create iron for Kate to eat and then they only have to pay for Laylas food.
'Ok we'll do that for today...' Layla and Igneel agreed because they knew Luke and Kate were right about the jewels.
hr
Next morning the new couple walked to the guild hand in hand and sat by the counter.
'So you two finally became a couple?' Mira asked with a chuckle as she noticed them coming.
'Yeah...' Kate blushed.
'Oi Kate! You just told Mira! Now everyone will know.' Luke said and looked at her.
'Oops! It's just kinda came out...' Kate replied.
'Mira can you keep this a secret please...? You are the first we told after our team ofcourse..' Luke and Kate said in unison.
'Keep what a secret?' Erza had walked over and was now giving them a look that good kill a man.
'Ugh...' They both stared at her for a while.
'Nothing...' They said in unison and tried to get her to understand.
'That they are a couple atlast...' Igneel practically shouted as he walked over with Layla.
'Is that so? I thought you were already going out? I thought it was obvious to everyone?' Erza looked confused.
'Oi Gajeel! Have you heard the news?' Erza suddenly shouted.
As she did that Gajeel jumped down from the second floor to where they were.
'Heared what news?' Gajeel asked.
'That Natsus other son has become Kates boyfriend?' Erza replied.
'What? When did this happen? And why am i the last to know?' Gajeel glared at Luke.
'Stop it dad! I didn't tell you last night because i knew how you would react..' Kate roared and stared at her dad.
'What? You think i'm mad at you two?' Gajeel ruffled her hair.
'Yes!' Kate yelled.
'What? No! If i was mad do you think i'd let your sister date Igneel?' Gajeel asked.
'I guess not..' Kate calmed down.
'Does mom know?' Gajeel asked.
'No.. She'll be surprised to hear it from you though, that you knew before she did..' Kate chuckled.
'Ahh yeah gihihi!' Gajeel chuckled and left to find Levy.
hr
Soon after Gajeel had left, the double twins desited to look for a suitable request for them to take. They desited to take a job to save a town from a mysterious beast that had rampaged around for a while. They all thought it was weird that it was named "mysterious", if the people of the town knew of it. But still desited to take the job because of it's high pay and the fact that they were all around as powerful as S- class mages.
The town of Ghenia wasn't that far, it took them only 2 trains to get there. Atleast for them it felt rather normal because they had gone for much farther and had taken S- class missions with their parents for a few times. And now they were dating so it didn't seem that long.
When they arrived at the town the major had explained details of the beast and what they might be up against.
'Ahh so you think it's a dragon?' They all said in unison.
'Well that would explain everything that we've seen.' The major replied and looked rather nervous.
'Well we'll find out... And we do have 3 Dragons slayers on our team, so it shouldn't be a problem.' Igneel said and tried to calm down the major.
'Ohh so you are the famous double twins of Fairy tail?' The major asked.
'Not sure about famous... but yes, we are them.' Layla replied looking embarrassed.
'We'll start the search in the morning so we'll go book rooms in the hotel for the time being.' Kate said as they were starting to leave.
'That will be fine, there should be room at the hotel.' The major said and pointed them in the direction of the hotel.
As they got to the hotel they ran into a rather embarrassing problem... There was only one room left and it had 2 single beds... Well it wasn't a problem for Layla and Igneel, but for Kate and Luke who had only started dating.. it seemed rather embarrassing to spend their first night sleeping together like that...
'I'll sleep on the floor, so you can sleep on the bed Kate.' Luke said as they got to the room.
'Oi.. i didn't mean it like that when i said it Luke...' Kate said to him as he was taking out his sleeping pack.
'I just thought it was embarrassing at first, but i still don't want to force you on the floor...' Kate added.
'If you're ok with it we can sleep in the same be-bed...' Kate said and blushed.
'Hey i was thinking of you when i agreed to sleep on the floor.' Luke replied.
'Hey guys! It's not that bad... We do it all the time...' Igneel said as he looked at the blushing pair.
'Ehh Igneel... but we've dated for 3 years and they've dated for a week..' Layla said.
'Ah right right, sorry guys... You'll just have to deal with it. You'll get over the embarrassment over time... and if you can't even sleep in the same bed for one night you're doomed to fail as a couple..' Igneel said with a serious look on his face.
'Ok ok, we'll sleep in the same bed...' Luke and Kate said in unison and their faces were as red as a tomato.
As the awkward night passed, they walked around town looking for a place to have breakfast. Well breakfast for Layla and fire and iron magic for the rest... As they had their breakfast they desited to start looking for the "dragon" in the nearby forest.
'Do you really think it's a dragon?' Luke asked as they were walking around the forest.
'If it is it can't be a big one... We would have seen it by now.' Layla replied.
'What if it's a baby dragon? It wouldn't be that big then.' Igneel asked.
'That would be cool! Our dads would flip if we brought a Dragon back from this mission.' Luke replied with a grin on his face as he was imagining their faces.
'As if that would ever happen.. there are no dragons left.' Kate said.
But as they were talking something scaly jumped over them and began to stare them down. From what they could see it certainly looked like a mini scale version of a dragon. It had folded it's wings and had it's claws out and was looking rather scared of it's new friends.
hr
Sorry guys... i'll leave the details of the baby dragon for the next chapter XD if somebody has ideas on what magic the dragon should have i'll take serious thoughts into consideration... Because i haven't thought so far myself...
