Amare

"Sometimes I wonder if there is anything I can say to you. Without sounding like a fool."

Gray was known for saying whatever came into his mind, he doesn't know how to control it. He swears that he doesn't mean any harm by it, words just seem to slip from his mouth. That's why he has always had a strained relationship with Amoura, he just seemed like an ass to the woman. When he first met her, it was a warm summer day. Much too warm for his liking and the gang was stuck at school.

""You have never met my friends, have you?" A blonde asked, her doe eyes looking over at her friend.

"You've been meaning to, I just always leave when they come near." She responds looking through her notes. "I thought Celestial beings were created from the heavens, by Spirit King. It says here that they were born from the stars?"

"Zodiac are born from stars, sorry I just scrambled what I thought was important. I didn't know you knew that."

"Hm, yeah, I've been reading about Celestials." She hummed, looking up into her friend's eyes.

"That actually makes me really happy, Mo-chan." She grinned, touching the girl's brown hand. Her pale fingers interlocked with brown ones. Amoura smiled at the blonde, and looked back into the notes.

Gray walked up to his blonde friend then, "Yo, Lucy."

"Gray! How are you?" Her eyes snapping to his midnight blue ones. "Ah! You haven't met Amoura, have you?"

"I've seen her around the halls." He muttered.

Her ears twitched at the low reply before she looked up. She scowled at him, "Was that before or after you threw your underwear in my face?"

His face turned red before smacking his lips, "It's a habit!"

"Public exposure is a habit?" She snapped back, her iridescent eyes narrowing. "You're friends with him?"

Lucy's eyes showed mirth, "Yeah, he's the one I told you about."

Amoura blanched, "Him? He's the Gray Fullbuster, you speak so highly about?"

Lucy nodded and smiled back to Gray. The male gave her a soft smile before gently rubbing his hand on her hair. Amoura rose an eyebrow, then busied herself back with the notes she missed. She frowned again when she heard a loud crash. The air was at an odd temperature. Heating up, but then chilling down again. She glanced up to see a chair flying into Lucy's direction. She quickly grabbed Lucy, and placed her onto her lap. The chair crashing and breaking upon impact.

"Hey." She growled, "if you're going to fight, take that outside. You almost hit her."

The boys stopped throwing punches, eyes widening. Her voice sent chills down their spines. "A-Aye."

Lucy smiled down at her friend and kissed her head lightly, "Thank you for saving me."

"Yeah, anything for you." Amoura muttered, her face sporting a pretty pink.
