I have been writing this on and off making changes to it here and there, and overall I think this story is pretty good. I'm still not sure how long I'm going to make this story but, I think I'm going to make it longer than 5 chapters I'll try I know the title doesn't sound the best but, I couldn't think of anything else to call it so yeah. This story is based on three couples GrayxLucy, NatsuxErza and GajeelxLevy but, It's mostly the first two couples that the story is going to be focused on. I hope whoever or anyone that is reading this likes it. Last but not least Please Review after you read it telling me what you thought of it so far? :)
I don't know why but, for some reason my mind keeps thinking of what Gemini said who was posing as Gray. I wonder if I actually was true... No Lucy! Don't be thinking of this I mean come on Gray? The boy who loses his clothes 'mysteriously' without him knowing. Maybe... I should talk to him but, I don't want to make it obvious I'll just ask him in a non obvious way? Oh who am I kidding how am I supposed to talk to him without my face becoming completely flustered.
There is more to him then his weird clothing habits, he's so nice and caring for his friends. I find it funny how Gray is completely oblivious to how in love Juvia is with him. That's another thing what if she finds out I like him? Juvia would kill me or still call me her love rival and try to win over Gray. Well she does that everyday so no surprise there but, she would seriously kill me if she knew. Lucy sighed inwardly. Alright I have made up my mind I will talk to him as soon as he stops fighting with Natsu over who's the better wizard... Ugh that could take forever.
Levy raised an eyebrow at her friend she had been staring at the table for a while now. She had to get her attention somehow. "I see your having a staring contest with the table, Lucy. Who's winning?" She started to laugh and Lucy shot her head up from the table and rolled her eyes at Levy.
"Well my opponent is good but, considering the table doesn't have eyes or is alive I guess I won!" Lucy crossed her arms in front of her chest and stuck out her tongue.
"Well I had to get your attention somehow! You have been staring at nothing for quite a while, what's on your mind? Is it a boy! You have to tell me!" Levy noticed Lucy was staring at Gray who was arguing with Natsu as usual.
"You like Gray, don't you Lucy?" Lucy turned her head to face her friend she was going to say something but, shut her mouth and blushed. "Well no I mean I- yes..." She was blushing even more now hoping Gray couldn't see considering he wasn't far away from where her and Levy were sitting.
"Uh...Lucy..." Levy was trying to tell Lucy that Gray was right behind her because it looked like the guys were planning to scare Lucy. Or Gray probably just wanted to scare the living crap out of her.
"Wha-!" Gray went behind her and started tickling her and she screamed loudly laughing falling off from where she was sitting. Gray could hardly contain his laughter. Lucy lay on the floor holding her head. "Well thanks for that Gray, now I'm going to have a bump or a bruise or something on my head."
Gray scratched the back of his head. "I'm sorry Lucy I didn't mean to hurt you at all. I was just trying to scare you." Lucy sighed and crossed her arms lying on the ground. "So your just going to lye there?" Gray asked looking at Lucy.
"Yup I'm just going to sit here. I don't feel like getting up." Gray had a smirk on his face.
"But, what if someone steps on you?" Lucy gave Gray a death glare and he cringed he never knew that Lucy could look so intimidating. "Right, forget I asked. I might as well sit with you if you don't mind?" Lucy noticed that he was blushing turning away from her. He blushed!
"I don't mind." She smiled at him and he sat down next to her. Gray was lying down on the floor the same way Lucy was.
"So anything new with you?" Gray asked turning his head to face her. Lucy turned her face and their faces were close. She blushed and looked up at the ceiling.
"Nothing really just trying to figure out what to do today? I was going to walk home and continue on my novel but, I want to do something fun today! I don't know something adventurous?" Lucy was still blushing because Gray was still looking at her.
Lucy noticed Levy mouthing words to her 'Having fun there, Lucy?' She winked at her and Lucy just rolled her eyes at her and Mouthed back 'Oh shut up, Levy! Maybe I am!' Gray had a puzzled look on his face and looked up at the ceiling.
Then suddenly Mira yelled at the top of her lungs to get everyone's attention. Everyone got quiet and stared at her which she smiled apologetically. "Master Makarov has just told me that there will be a Fairy Tail Ball this week. He also said that every girl and boy must have a date to the Ball or they cannot go, it will also be a lot of fun." Natsu looked at Mira and asked her a question.
"Then why couldn't he have told us that himself?" he crossed his arms.
"Because, the master is at an important meeting with the other guild masters." He nodded and everyone went back to what they were doing.
Gajeel went up to Levy and sat beside her. Levy looked to her right and smiled at him. "Hey, Gajeel." He smiled back at her. "Hey, Levy. How are you?" Gajeel was always the guy who remained tough but nobody really knew that he liked Levy.
"I'm good I am excited for the ball I wonder who is going to ask me?" Levy was smiling thinking to herself.
Gajeel thought 'Now's your chance ask her to the ball! But, what if she says no? What are you talking about of course she likes you she's giving you a look telling you to ask her and the way she is acting is pretty obvious!' He was arguing with himself until then he was just about to ask her when her two male team mates Jet and Droy stopped in front of Levy's table almost stepping on Gray and Lucy who were talking and laughing together.
"Levy, will you go to the ball with me?" Jet asked but then Droy added in "No! I was going to ask Levy!"
The two were both fighting over who wanted to go with Levy then Gajeel whispered in Levy's ear. "Levy will you go to the ball with me?"
Levy's cheeks became bright red and she nodded. "Yes I will go to the ball with you!" They both smiled at each other and hugged. The two boys who were too busy fighting noticed Levy hugging Gajeel and they slumped sadly.
"Sorry boys but, I already have date to the ball." Levy had said after she broke away from the hug smiling at him. Lucy winked at Levy and she giggled.
Gray sat up and looked at Lucy their eyes locking on each others. "Lucy I wanted to ask you something?" He scratched the back of his head.
"Ya, Gray what is it?" Lucy sat up still keeping eye contact with him. "I...uh...w-an-ted to k-know if you wanted to go to the ball with me?" He was blushing pink and Lucy flung her arms around Gray's neck and kissed his cheek. "I'd loved to." Gray was shocked that he had been kissed on the cheek by Lucy, his cheeks became a darker pink by the second.
She realized how close their bodies and faces were together, and got out of the embrace a little embarrassed. "That's great then, I can't wait." He smiled at her with that heart melting smile which only made her blush more. They both got up from the floor and sat down at the table with Levy and Gajeel.
"Gray do you mind if I borrow Lucy for a moment?" He nodded. They both walked over to where Mira and Erza were and both sat down on a stool. As usual Erza was eating her beloved strawberry cake, while Mira was cleaning some glasses.
"So Lucy tell me, Gray asked you to the ball didn't he?" She nodded blushing. "I saw Gajeel asked you and you seem so happy about it!"
Mira jumped into the conversation. "You and him would make a cute couple." She smiled at both girls. "I also noticed you kissed Gray on the cheek Lucy! Did you intend to do that or did you just miss his lips?" She winked at her and Lucy waved her hands in the air wildly.
"Sshhhh, not so loud! Yes I did kiss his cheek, and no I didn't intend to kiss him... maybe soon though?" She winked back giggling.
"Ooooh, Lucy and Gray sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Happy pitched in. "Ugh you stupid cat SHUT UP!" Everyone heard Lucy yell and turned to face the exceed and Lucy arguing. She nervously smiled and the awkward silence ended.
"It's not bad Lucy you and Gray would make a great couple and make weird babies together!" Happy laughed uncontrollably. "Ugh that's it cat! You know what? I'm just going to ignore you." Her voice filled with confidence as she crossed her arms, and turned away from him.
"Fine then, Lucy!" As he went flying away to Natsu. "Ugh, that cat just loves to annoy me!" Her voice sounding annoyed as Happy flew behind her and poked her. "Aye!" Then he quickly flew away.
Lucy screamed and turned around, she mumbled something that no one but, her could hear. "Ugh, that darn cat, always annoying me." clenching her teeth, as she relaxed herself again she turned to Erza and started asking her questions.
"So, Erza what about you?" Erza looked up at Lucy a bit confused at her question, as she put down her fork. "What about me?" She further explained. "You know about the ball? Has anyone asked you yet?" Erza bit her lip and answered.
"Well yes guys have but..." She trailed off looking back at her plate. "But?" She looked over at a certain dragon slayer and frowned.
"What's wrong, Erza?" All three girls asked at the same time. "There is a certain person that I wanted to go with... but, I don't know if someone already asked him yet?" She was still staring at the dragon slayer and the girls noticed this and nodded their heads.
"You want to go with, Natsu?" She blushed slightly. "I know he seems like a idiot sometimes but, I-I... really like... Natsu." They all had happy expressions plastered on their faces which made Erza feel embarrassed.
"Why don't you go and talk to him?" Mira asked excitedly but, Erza just kept biting her lip. "I-I am not that good at talking to boys like that...what if he doesn't like me? Or I embarrass myself?" Lucy put a hand on her shoulder to comfort her and smiled.
"Don't be silly I'm sure he likes you but, you just don't know it yet? Also, don't try to be someone your not, just be yourself." Hearing this made Erza feel more confident about going to talk him. "You know what your right! I will go talk to Natsu right now."
They waved at her as she went over to where Natsu and Happy were sitting. "I win!" Happy was grinning brightly flying around Natsu annoyingly.
"Ugh no fair! How can you be so good at cards your just a cat!" Happy stopped flying around and stood on the table.
"Well that's insulting Natsu! I never go around asking you why you have pink hair?" He just crossed his arms.
"Alright, point taken. I'm sorry." Erza walked up to Natsu and sat down beside him.
"Hi Natsu." She smiled cheerfully at him. "Hi, Erza you seem happy today. Wait is it bad? Whatever it is I didn't do anything!" She just rolled her eyes at him for how he could just jump to conclusions so quickly. "No your not in trouble and I am not mad at you. What can't I not be happy and cheerful sometimes?"
He nervously laughed. 'Ugh great Natsu you idiot!' He mentally cursed himself. "I'm sorry, Erza. That is true of course you can be happy at times, and when you are you do have quite a beautiful smile." She blushed at his comment.
'He thinks I'm beautiful?' Happy took the opportunity to bug the two of his friends. "Oooohh Erz-" Happy couldn't continue his little song because Erza gave him a death glare which made him frightened and flew behind the request board.
"Erza I wanted to tell you something?" Her eyes went wide and she replied. "Really because I have to tell you something, too." She put some of her hair behind her ear, and he put a hand on her face turning her to face him.
From a distance the three girls were watching the scene between their two friends. "I think he's going to kiss her!" Lucy was saying all giggly. "I have to agree with you on that one." Levy and Mira were both giggly as well.
Millions of thoughts were going through her head, 'Does he really like me? Is he going to kiss me? Is he going to ask me to the ball?' Natsu's face got closer to Erza's until he captured her lips with his in a sweet and loving kiss. Erza was surprised that Natsu was kissing her she felt so happy, and she kissed him back with as much passion as she put her arms around his neck.
He broke away from the kiss with his forehead against hers and whispered, "Erza I really like you no I don't just like you, I love you! Will you go to the ball with me?"
She was so happy that tears of joy spilled from her eyes. "Of course I will, and you have no idea how long I've waited for you to say that to me. Because, I have always loved you, Natsu." He looked up at her and wiped the tears from her eyes and kissed her again.
The girls were all giggly at their two friends who have finally told each other their feelings. "Aww, those two are such an adorable couple!" Mira put her hands to her cheek sighing at how cute the scene was.
"I hope that happens with me and Gajeel." Sighing she knew she spoke out loud but, she didn't care who heard except for Gajeel.
"Well I should probably get back to the girls they are probably going to want to know what happened." Natsu laughed. "Of course." She kissed his cheek and finally said. "I'll see you, later." He smiled and waved to her. She then headed back to where her friends were sitting.
"She's coming back quick, pretend your doing something!" Levy pretended that she was telling a joke. "And then I said, oh hey Erza! How was your talk with Natsu?"
She dreamily sighed touching her lips, they still felt tingly from where Natsu had kissed her.
"So, what happened?" Lucy asked even though she knew exactly what happened?" Erza knew her friends were watching her when she was walking back, and they were playing the play dumb card, so she just decided to let that slip for now.
"Amazing, Natsu told me he loves me and he kissed me." All three girls squealed with happiness for their friend and hugged her.
"Were all so happy for you, Erza!" Lucy was smiling at Erza and she smiled back. "You all do realize what we have to do now?" They all stared at Mira with confused expressions. "Dress shopping!" They all nodded in agreement and, would go to get their dresses tomorrow.
