Au. GrayLu. A collection of random one-shots incorporating our favorite exhibitionist and celestial mage…and because I wanted to contribute to GrayLu week. Ratings vary. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy-not sure if I'll be able to follow through with all prompts consecutively, but I'll do my best :)
Standard disclaimer applied.
I. Grey
It's funny, Lucy thinks as she stretches her sore muscles. She's somewhere between a vivid dream and heaven. The warm sunlight glaring through the window does nothing to disturb her from getting off her bed.
Was she still dreaming?
She stares up at her ceiling.
Black.
Or…was it White?
She mulls it over for a second in her head as she desperately tries to squish down the blush covering her face. Her legs shift uncomfortably.
"Luce."
Her body immediately stills at the sound of his voice. She forgets to breathe. There's a moment of silence; a short sweet silence that only lasts a second before the body lying next to hers shifts. The temperature suddenly drops, and if she didn't know any better Lucy would have thought her bedroom suddenly became a frozen tundra. But she doesn't mind.
She never did.
Her big brown eyes gaze up into dark blue eyes.
Ah, now she remembers…
"Hmm?"
She watches him, watching her. But it ends too soon because she becomes too flustered, too embarrassed and faces away from him. Instead she examines the arm before her, the veins, the slightly tanned color, and the way every time he breathes the muscles underneath seem to react and flex. She begins to vividly recall what had transpired between them last night.
She squeaks as her hands cover her face.
She is such a pervert!
Gray silently chuckles, his eyes softening. He really doesn't understand, how he got so lucky. How did it happen? He had always thought that Lucy was going to end up with that ass-flame Natsu. It seemed like they were meant to be. Always together running errands, completing missions, Natsu breaking into her apartment (even though half of the time Team Natsu ended up doing that anyways), and meeting up at the guild while he sat in the background watching them interact.
He asked her once, why she wasn't with Natsu.
It had been a mistake on his part, but he needed to know. He had doubts. Fruitless as they were, he had them. She had glared at him, once the question had left his lips. She called him an idiot and he had gotten defensive. They had argued and she had cried. It wasn't pretty; his jealousy and doubt. It was hurdle after hurdle; between having Natsu tag along on missions (it was Team 'Natsu' for a reason) and Juvia's undying love for him.
But somehow their relationship had survived.
And he thanks the heavens for it too.
He was happy.
"Lucy," he smirks as he watches her slowly peel away her hands from her face.
He blames the sun's rays streaming through her window at the sudden heat pulsing down his nether regions.
She feels his cool breath before his lips descend on hers. And she's lost once his tongue starts probing her lips open.
Ah, she remembers now…
It wasn't Black.
It wasn't white either.
She lets out a sensual moan, her legs automatically wrapping themselves around his waist. It's once their pace picks up that she remembers the color that she sees when they're together like this. She shudders and for second there's black and white in her field of vision, but her eyes glaze over as she reaches her peak and she's swimming in nothing but grey.

It's funny, Lucy thinks as she glances across her kitchen counter top and sees Gray eating toast in nothing but his boxers, but she doesn't mind the color all that much. Looks like she'll have to add grey as one of her favorite colors.
