Authors notes: hey all this is a new fanfic that suddenly came to life during a discussion I was having with my best friend (who I have turned into a greza fan even though she has never watched fairy tail!) anyway this is what I have made up so enjoy…

"I'm so bored!" Gray moaned as he looked around the guild for anything interesting.

"It's not that bad" Cana laughed as she downed another mug of alcohol. "Natsu, Lucy and Happy will be back in a few weeks so you can fight then" Gray sighed how dare that flame brain leave him behind while he went off on a mission! He wasn't even asked to join them all he got was a stupid note! He pulled the piece of paper out of his trouser pocket that he amazingly still had on and reread it.

Dear Gray,

Sorry this is short notice, but I'm really behind on my rent! So Natsu, happy and I are going off on a mission for a few weeks that's paying big jewels! And hopefully if Natsu doesn't break anything major then I'll have rent covered for months!

See you soon

Lucy

Ps: Oi ice princess! When I get back from this mission I'm going to kick your butt for something that you've done but I can't remember it now…BUT I WILL GET YOU BACK!

Gray chuckled at the last part, what an idiot when squinty eyes comes back I was going to beat him up anyway! That's what he deserves for leaving me here bored! He'd just have to hold all his frustration in till then. But that's going to be weeks from now! "How dare they leave me behind on my own!" Gray shouted a loud which startled a few of the guild members but then they just shrugged it off. This was fairy tail after all.

"actually you're not on your own" Mirajane stated "only Natsu, Lucy and Happy went off on a mission meaning they also forgot someone else who's not going to be very happy when they find out" she smiled sweetly at Gray as realisation dawned upon him. Oh no they forgot Erza too! He laughed out loud as he imagined the fury and beatings Natsu would receive from the Titania oh I can't wait to see that! "Oh my God Erza is going to go mad when she finds out!"

"Why will I go mad?" a low voice spoke behind him which caused the ice mage to jump and Cana to laugh at him. Oh the irony Gray thought before turning around

"erm just that Natsu, Lucy and happy have gone on a mission for a few weeks and left us here" Gray held his breath waiting for an outburst as he saw the mage in front of him take in what he had said. Wow she looks really angry…

"Well that means that it's just the two of you" Mira said with another smile, her comment caused Gray to become very nervous, I haven't been left with Erza in my own for a long time. He gulped trying to hide his worries expecting Erza to be totally unfased by but instead to his surprise instead when he looked back at her he saw her slightly shocked expression.

Cana murmured something that only Mira could hear which caused the barmaid to giggle and nod. But Erza quickly snapped out of her thoughts and stood tall "yes it seems it's just you and me for a while, just like old times" she stated

"Well you two should defiantly go on a misiion together then" Mira said happily

"Just like old times" Cana added with a smirk

"What?!" Gray asked he didn't like the sound of that!

"Gray-sama" Gray turned around and to see a smaller blue haired water mage standing extremely close to him, she was looking at the floor but Gray could still make out the faint blush on her face. "Juvia was wondering if Gray-sama would like to go on a mission with Juvia…now that Lucy is out of the way!" she muttered the last statement but Gray could still understand and he gulped again this day was getting worse!

"Sorry Juvia but Gray and I already agreed on going on a mission together" Erza said a bit too quickly, which caused Cana to raise her eyebrow

"We have?!" Gray stared at the redhead while Cana snickered. What is Erza's plan? Is she just trying to help me out or is she being serious? He looked at the two female mages faces. Going on a mission with Juvia would be very awkward seeing how she acts around me Gray thought but Erza can be as scary as hell when she wants to! But I have known Erza for longer and we are on the same team, it wouldn't be very manly of me if I just left her on her own too as Elfman would put it. Plus it might be fun to go on a mission with Erza again…

"Yea sorry Juvia but I already said that I was going on a mission with Erza and I can't go back on my word" once Gray had finished talking he saw how Juvia looked slightly disheartened but Erza looked pleased with herself

"What is the mission?" Juvia asked ugh she's onto me what should I do?!

"Oh it's just a simple quest really" Mira piped up "I have the request right here actually ohh look at the time! You two need to go to the train station now otherwise you'll be late!"

"Huh?" Gray, Erza and Juvia said in unison wait I thought we were just making this up! Gray was pulled out of his thoughts quite literally as he was dragged out of the guild hall by Erza who had also took the request from Mira and charged out away from Juvia and the rest

"Catch the train to Onibus town!" Mira cried "and have fun you two!" Cana's laughter was still ringing in Gray's ears after he was far away from the guild. Onibus town, hmm that sure does sound familiar but Gray couldn't quite put his finger in it I have a really bad feeling about this…

Meanwhile at the guild hall:

"Ha! Did you see Gray's shocked face!" Cana laughed as she continued to drink, Mira just smiled at her friend

"I must admit Cana it was very quick thinking of you to mention that request to me. I had forgotten about it. Seeing as no one dared to touch it after the last incidents with it. I had even taken it off the request board" Cana laughed again

"Yes I was very proud of myself. As soon as Erza claimed that Gray was going on a mission with her that certain request flew into my head! And that mission will be perfect for them"

Mira grinned wickedly "yes I sure hope this works out like we have planned. They would make such a cute couple!"

Cana laughed "yes did you see how quickly Erza answered Juvia to stop Gray going off on a mission with her! That was very uncharacteristic of her…"

"…meaning that Erza mustn't was anything to happen with Gray and Juvia. Meaning SHE LIKES Gray!" Mira shouted happily and Cana laughed at the barmaid

"Whatever you say cupid, but don't say that too loud. Don't want Juvia hearing that" Cana suddenly stopped laughing "wait where is Juvia?" both mages turned and looked for the rain woman but she was nowhere to be found.

Cana sighed "this may cause a problem to our brilliant plan"

Hope you enjoyed the first chapter! Left lots of cliff-hangers so you'll have to wait to find out what happens next.
