"I love you!"

Little did he know those simple words would hurt him so deeply.

Natsu walked into the guild one summer morning, everything was the same as it was everyday, people fighting, others sitting at tables or at the bar drinking or eating something.

He sat on the stools in front of the bar and Mira placed a plate of food in front of him

"Ooooh, thank you! Smells great!" Mira laughed as Natsu stomached the food as fast as he could.

"Yo, Flame-Brain!"

Natsu spun around just in time to receive a punch to the jaw. "Jeez what was that for ya stupid ice princess?!"

"That's for skipping out on yesterday's mission with the team!" Gray was furious and he had no idea why gray would care that much about him missing one stupid mission, it wasn't even a hard mission. Besides Natsu had something else he absolutely had to do.

"I already told you…" He punched Gray in the face "I had something to do!"

Gray retaliated fast and Natsu got smacked on the head which caused him to fall to the floor "Yeah! Well what the hell was it that was so important you had to ditch us?!"

Something was off with Natsu and others who gathered around to see what was up had noticed, but it wasn't that hard to point out something was off with the dragon slayer when he did not get up and hit back, he just sat on the floor and lowered his head. Gray was stunned by this, he had his fist clenched in the air ready to throw another punch but with this sight he just stood there not moving."Natsu?"

"I don't want to tell you yet.."

Gray got angered again, Natsu never kept secrets. Erza noticed gray's anger rising again and stepped in before he did something else. "Gray, if Natsu doesn't want to say anything yet he probably has a reason. It's probably too personal for him yet…"

Gray nodded to Erza to let her know he understood and would not do anything else. As he was about to leave he pointed a finger at Natsu who was now looking up at him with regret filled eyes, Gray sighed "You own me and everyone else here an explanation…." He dropped his hand to his side "When you're ready to spill it" with those last words he left the guild.

Natsu got up with the help of Lucy "You okay Natsu?"

"I'm fine" He brushed himself off and sat back down on the stool

"You sure?" She asked him again

"I said i'm fine!" He snapped at her.

Lucy stepped back a little shocked that Natsu had snapped. Natsu sighed, apologized and got up, leaving the guild hall. He made his way home and collapsed on his bed. Happy was left at the guild with Carla so natsu was left alone and he was thankful for that.

He curled up and his bed and let all of his emotions out.
