Happy birthday to my dear friend @mangaguitar96 you enjoy this. So sorry this was slightly delayed but none the less this one is for you!

It was a lazy summer day at the Redfox home. Levy was on the couch reading her favorite book while Gajeel was the floor next to her strumming his guitar. They both didn’t want to join their friends on the beach trip rather, enjoy the company of one another.

“Gajeel lets get a pet.” Levy said as the closed her book. A string from Gajeel’s guitar snapped as she said it causing to startle.

“Seriously shrimp? Now of all times?” He stammered.

“Come on a furry little friend around the house. We aren’t having any kids anytime soon so why not a pet?” She begged, he honestly wouldn’t mind a cat but being in the middle of a move in wasn’t the best time.

Levy saw the gears turning in his head and pulled out her ace. She gave him the big doe eyes that just about did the trick for anything.

Gajeel cursed as she at looked him with her doey eyes, he could never resist them not even for a moment.

“Fine we’ll go down and get a pet, but let’s get a cat, dogs are way too damn needy.” He surrendered. Shw squealed for joy as she bolted from the couch to get changed. He snickered to himself, gosh he loved the way she got excited for things. Be it a new book or the summer concerts they went every year.

Inside the tall building they were greeted by a young girl named Wendy who was at the front desk.

“Welcome to the Magnolia Shelter. What can I help you with today?” She smiled sweetly.

“We are looking for a cat to adopt. We just moved into a new place and we want a furry friend.” Levy explained.

“Well today is a good day. Today we are doing an event were the adoption costs are only five-” A loud bang echoed in the back followed by yelling. A black figure darted out from the back door and tried to escape over Wendy’s desk but came careering into Gajeel’s face.

“Oh my gosh are you ok!?” Levy yelled as Gajeel grabbed hold of something furry and picked himself up. He looked in his hands and saw a small black kitten with crescent ears and a scar over his left eye.

“Well aren’t you an escape artist,” He chuckled as he got up. Wendy was spluttering with apologies, not sure of what had happened.

“We’ll take him. I like the spunk in him,” He beamed as he looked at the kitten.

“You know he looks like a panther. Why don’t we call him Pantherlily!” Levy warmly smiled.

“Why Lily? Why don’t we just call him Panther?” Gajeel countered.

“Cause it reminds me of my favorite character from one of my favorite children’s book Peter Pan.” She explained. He sighed and gave in.

“So kid what do we have to sign to keep this little guy?” He asked.

“Well I’m not sure if he’s ready-”

“Wendy give him the cat he’s caused me more trouble than it’s worth so they can have him.” The vet said behind her. She was an elderly woman with pink hair and hard eyes who seemed annoyed at the cat more than anything.

“That’s the fifth time he’s escaped, I’ll even give you his friend that came with him since she’s very supportive of their break outs.” She growled, the young couple agreed and took the two cats home with them much to the joy of the doctor.

“So what should we name her?” Levy asked as they drove home with their new companions.

“I think the kid said her name was Shagotte?” He grumbled.

“That’s a pretty name for her,” she smiled happy at the latest additions to their small family. What the couple did not know was that exactly one year later two more would be joining them.

Omg thank you so much!!!
