Based on One Direction's "I Wish"

Enjoy~!


It wasn't fair how they could act all lovey-dovey in the hallways. And right in front of him? Oh, that's just too much.

Gray watched as Natsu grabbed Lucy's hand and intertwined them with his. And in that moment, Gray felt as if he just died. He looked at Lucy, examining her beautiful face. He stopped when he saw her eyes. Her eyes were filled with so much emotion. The emotion of Love. And the sad thing is that it wasn't towards Gray, but to Natsu. Gray frowned. Why can't she look at him like that?

Tomorrow, Gray thought, tomorrow would be the day he'd finally tell her how he felt. But when Lucy walked by him the next day, he froze. He opened his mouth to say something but nothing came out. Not even a single sound. It was like someone tied his tongue. Then he watched as Lucy ran to her boyfriend as he just stood there, hands in his pockets. He knew he already lost his chance. All those words he wanted to say, were now trapped inside his mouth, never going to have the chance to be said out loud.

Gray tightened his fist and gritted his teeth as he watched Natsu hug Lucy. All the things Natsu could do, he knew he could do too. Lucy was the world to him. He'd do anything for her. But sadly, time can't turn back, can it? Gray wished that he had told her those three little words he's been dying to say. Now he was too late. No more second chances.

Then, the day finally came. Prom night. Of course, while Natsu and Lucy were happily dancing together, Gray just sat there, imagining what it would be if he had the courage before...

He'd have his hands on her waist as they danced in the moonlight... Lucy's head on his shoulder as she wraps her hands around his neck. Then after the dance, she'd call him just to say good night. And then, all his wishes would come true.

Gray realized he was glaring at the ground. He quickly sat back upright only to see Lucy and Natsu dancing to a slow song. The last dance of the night. Gray felt like crying. Couldn't she see, she was tearing him apart?! And then... the happy couple kissed as Gray ran away, wishing it was him who was there with her now...


Soo... How was it? Did you like it? I hope you did. Kind of sad, hm? Poor Gray... But anyways, thank you for reading and please leave a review! Arigatou minna!
