LUCY
"1,477,543 Jewels!" I shouted.
"Yes, that's your debt. So you better pack your things because I already have someone to replace you in this apartment." the landlady said.
"I'll pay you! Just give me some time. Please." I pleaded to the old landlady.
" I've already gave you a lot of time."
"But-"
"No buts, young lady. You don't need to pay your debt. Even without those debts, I'm planning to kick you out sooner or later because of your neighbors' complaints. You only have this day to pack your things because tomorrow the new tenant will be here."
With that the landlady left me.
Well, apparently right now,I, Lucy Heartfilia, a beautiful blonde celestial mage of Fairy Tail, am homeless.
As can you see, I have a lot of debt.
And how did that happen?
Well, I just got home from a 6-month long mission with Team Natsu but I didn't get enough money to 6 months worth of rent because we had pay repairs for Natsu's damage. I also have a lot of damage fee to pay in that apartment so it adds up in my debt. And of course, my water bill, my FREAKING water bill is totally high! I don't know why every time I open the faucet the water floods my apartment.
My neighbors also have a lot of complaints. And what are those?
Apparently, my neighbors had seen people climbing up to the window and the chimney to enter my house. They couldn't take the loudness of the riot happening in my house. They also saw a naked man entering my house. I'm sure you could guess who those people they are complaining about are.
I guess I'll just move on and try to search for new home. I better ask Mira.
Normal P.O.V.
At Fairy Tail guild building
"Mira-san, please help me!" the blond cried to the white haired woman.
"What happened, Lucy-chan?" Mirajane ask Lucy worriedly.
Lucy told Mira about what happened earlier.
"So.. Are there any vacant rooms in Fairy Hills?" Lucy asked.
"Sorry Lucy-chan but there is no vacant rooms there." Mira said.
"Uhm.. I really want to help you Lu-chan but my room is filled with books so there's no room for you to sleep. I'm sorry." the petite blue haired girl said.
"It's alright Levy-chan. I completely understand." Lucy smiled.
"I think it's useless to hope you could stay in Fairy Hills for tonight because each of our rooms is filled with all our interest, even if we want to help you, we can't because there's no space for you. I'm so sorry Lucy." The red head said.
"It's really fine Erza. I'll just ask the others." Lucy said.
"How about ask the boys?" Cana said with a grin.
"She can't do that. Most of the boys live in the Fairy dorm for boys." Levy said.
"Natsu doesn't live in dorm. Why not ask him?" Mirajane asked with a wink.
"I've been in Natsu's place before and it's a total mess. I can't live in a place like that." Lucy said while being horrified by the memory.
" Haha. I completely understand Lucy-chan. Natsu NEVER cleaned his house. So it's a big no,no. We can't let her live in there." Lisanna giggled trying to hide her jealousy towards the blonde.
"How about my place?"
The girls turned to see the raven haired with droopy eyes ice mage.
"What?" the surprised blonde manage to say.
"I said, How about my place? I don't live in a dorm and my place is clean unlike Natsu's. So why not live in my place?" Gray said
"Well..that's a pretty good offer but what about Juvia? Won't she get mad?" Lucy asked timidly.
"What about her? It's not like she's my girlfriend. Look Lucy, I really want to help, well if you don't what my help it's fine." Gray said while being slightly annoyed.
"F-fine. I'll take your offer. Thanks Gray." Lucy said with a smile.
"Then what are you waiting for pack your things."
"Mou.. You don't need to tell me what to do. Bye girls. Thanks for listening." Lucy pouted on Gray then smiled at girls and hurriedly went out of the guild with Gray.
"Ara, ara, things are getting interesting." Mirajane giggled.
LUCY
Gray and I are now walking to his house. I'm really thankful to him. Gray is really kind, helpful, a good friend, handsome, hot- wait what did I just say! Nevermind, I'll just thank him again.
"Gray... Thanks for helping me." I smiled.
"It's no big deal, Luce.I can't let you sleep in the streets. My conscience would kill me if I didn't do something, when I can help you." He smirked.
"Come to think of it, I've never been into your house. Has anyone had been there yet?"
"Just Loke and Natsu. One day, they suddenly barged in into my house and start breaking some of my things because of their idiocy which pissed me off, so got pretty mad to them. After that, they never went to my house. Actually you're the first girl whose going to come to my house" He smiled.
"Really? Then I guess I'm pretty lucky I got to live at Gray Fullbuster's house." I said jokingly.
"I guess so." He smirked again.
"We're here" He stated.
Gray's house is not too small yet not to big for him. I think a family of four to five can live here. His house is a bungalow type of house. It is one-story house which have low-pitched roof line on black gabled roof. He also has a porch and garden with a few flowers, I guess Gray doesn't have time to take care of many flowers. His motorcycle is parked in front of his house. Inside his house is pretty clean just like he said aside from a couple of clothes lying on the floor. It's pretty simple inside the house. His living room has a couch and table while his dining table has two chairs. Gray's kitchen is pretty much unused but he has a lot of appliances. He only have one bathroom which is located inside the bedroom though he have a comfort room near the living room. Speaking of bedroom, Gray has a king-sized bed and it's so fluffy! Now I'm so envied to Gray that he owned these things and I have nothing. Wait is this really Gray's or his renting it?
"Lucy."
"Uh Yes?!" I was surprised by the sudden call of Gray.
"I've been calling you for three times now. Is something wrong?" I could see he's worried.
"No. I'm fine. I'm just amazed how big is your house and yeah. Am I not intruding you?"
"Of course not. You should make yourself at home. Besides, back when we used to go to your apartment you treat us we hospitality even though we just make ourselves home without asking you. "
"Thanks Gray. But even though I'm just staying here until I find a new home, I don't want to stay here for free."
"Come on Luce, you could stay here for as long as you want for free. It's not really a big deal."
"But I really want to do something. Are you renting this or do you own it?"
"I'm going own it in a couple of years since this is a rent-to-own house."
"How about we split the rent while I'm here?"
"No. I don't want. I want to pay this house with my own money because I want to have something I can say I work hard for it. Yeah, something like that." He blushed.
'So Gray has this kind of side huh.' I thought.
"I completely understand Gray. I'm sorry. But I still want to do something; even though I'll just stay here for a while I don't what to take kindness for granted."
"Then how about this? I'll pay the rent and the other bills while you're in charge of the chores and the grocery." He proposed.
"Well it's a good deal. Okay then I'll do my best as Gray-sama's maid." I said jokingly.
"Oh come on, that's not what I mean. I just don't like doing chores, specially cooking. You're my guest here, you're not a maid."
"I know. I'm just joking, you know."
"Well then, I'll help you unpacked your things."
After we finished unpacking we went to the guild.
GRAY
Lucy and I just got back from the guild. Nothing new happened. Lucy was bombarded with questions by the girls about how was staying my house or something like that. I think it's pretty stupid. Earlier, Lucy and I just had some conversation and I help her unpacked then we went to the guild so Lucy didn't stay that much in my house. We ate dinner at the guild. I got in fight with Natsu. Erza also threatened me that she'd kill me if I lay a finger on Lucy, which seriously scared me. See, nothing new happened. So now back to reality.
I saw Lucy preparing the clothes she will wear for bedtime.
"Lucy, you should take a bath now. It's getting late." I said.
"Okay, I'll just be quick so you won't wait long."
"No. Take your time. It's okay."
Lucy went to the bathroom.
Wait isn't that... LUCY'S CLOTHES!
She left it in the table. So that means Lucy will come out with just towel hiding her sexy body. I would see her curves clearly. Gray stop thinking like that! You look like a pervert. Gah, why am I thinking like this? Whatever, I'll just get shaved ice to cool me down.
LUCY
I'm almost done bathing. I hope Gray won't get mad because I made him wait long. I grab my towel and I just realize something. I left my clothes at the table! What should I do? Gray's in the bedroom the last time I saw him. I guess I'll just check it.
"Gray?!" I shouted.
No response.
"Gray are you still there? Please answer if your there. "
Still no response.
I guess he's not there.
I hurriedly went out of the bathroom with only my towel on. I grabbed my clothes.
"L-lucy?!" It's Gray at the door. This is so embarrassing!
"KYAA!" I screamed as I ran back to the bathroom.
GRAY
I went back to the bedroom after I finished eating shaved ice. It really calmed me down. When I was on the door I saw...
"L-lucy!" Damn she's so hot! It feels like my dream came true. Lucy is only wearing towel! I could die now.
"KYAA!" Lucy ran.
What's this? I'm having a nosebleed! I rushed to the sink to clean the blood. Living with Lucy is bad for my health but I like it. I went back to the bedroom to wait for Lucy and apologize.
"G-gray!" Lucy exclaimed. I can see her cheeks tinted with red showing she's still embarrass even though she's now wearing pink pajamas.
"I'm sorry about earlier. I didn't see anything. I promise." I saw it your sexy, curvy and hot body but I'll just lie to keep you from being embarrass further.
"Uhmm..o-okay" she's still blushing, so cute! I'm such a pervert.
"You sleep on the bed. I'll be on the couch."
"But-"
"No buts Luce. I'm trying to be a gentleman here." I smirked.
"Thanks." she smiled like an angel.
"I'll take a shower. You go to sleep."
"Good night, Gray"
"Good night, Lucy"
I could definitely live like this. I hope she doesn't leave.
Yay! My first Graylu fic. Hope you like it :) Reviews are so much appeciated ^_^
