Gray was inside his office going over some business files. He was cunning man. He strives through his dedication and hard work. But the only thing he never got the chance to go for was love. Many of friends insisted to go on dates. But, he just doesn't have the time.

He sighed. "Another day at work." He said. He heard a knock at the door. It was friend Lyon. "Gray, you still here?" he said. "Yeah. The boss wants me to go over these folders. To make sure there is nothing wrong." he answered. "Me and some of the guys are hanging out at the club tonight. You want to come." Gray shook his head. "I would love to. But, I'm turning in tonight." he replied. Lyon was disappointed.

"Fine. But, you're going to be lonely one of these days." Said Lyon as he turned away and left his office. Gray looked and reviewed the last bit of folders. He sighed again. "All my life. It was all one big boring thing. Nothing pops or surprises me." Gray was happy. But, it was missing something. Something important.

Gray was walking down the street after work. He saw a man standing at the crossway street. He had pink hair and scarf around his neck. He had on loose fitted jeans and some shoes. As Gray walks on down, the man notice him. "Yo." Said to Gray. "Look, I don't have any money to you." He responded. "It's not that. I'm looking for someone." The man responded. "I'm looking for a Gray Fullbuster." He said.

"That's me." Gray replied. "Oh. Do you got a time?" he said to him. "I'm heading over to my house. Why don't you come over and we'll talk." Gray replied. "Sure. Oh and by the way, I'm Natsu Dragneel." he said.

They arrived at the house. Gray opened the door and let him inside. "Sorry about the place. It's a little small." he said to Natsu. "It fine." He replied. Natsu sat down on the chair. Gray went to the fridge. "Hey, do you want soda or water?" he asked. "Give me soda." Natsu replied. Gray went ahead and got tow for Natsu and himself. "Here." Gray gave him the soda. While he sat down with him. "So tell me, what seems to be the problem?" he asked.

Natsu started to rub his fingers. "I…I…" his body began to shake horribly. Gray looks at him. "Natsu?" Gray saw Natsu starting to tear up. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I 'm scared." He said. "I can't tell you this." Natsu stood up and was ready to leave but, Gray grabs his arm. "Hold on. Why are you crying? Tell me what's happening to you." Gray asked.

Natsu looked into his eyes and sat down and gave him the story. "Someone is out to get me. A month ago, I was coming home from work. I heard somebody screamed. I rushed over to help that person. A man was hurting a little girl. I tackled him into the ground and punched him. I told the girl to call the police. I kept him down until cops arrived. He had an evil look on his face when stared at me."

Natsu frowned. "I thought he was gone. But couple of three weeks ago, I came home and found it in ruins. I looked around. Then, I found a something on my wall. That said.

Thought you've gotten rid of me. Ha Ha Ha Ha. I'll find and kill everyone you care.

And when I do find you, I'll make you suffer like I did.

Soul Taker.

I looked down and found the blood that belonged to. My landlord. I heard someone in the closet. And I opened it and Annabelle, the land lady's daughter, was inside. She came rushing in and hug me so tightly that she began crying. I called up her uncle and explain the situation to him. He took Annie away. But, I felt that man would come and attack them again because of me."

Natsu continued. "That's why I decided to run from this. To get some help. I tried to talking to the police. But, none of them believe me." Tears started to fall from his eyes. "Gray, what am I going to do? I want you to help me, but at the same time, I don't want you to be killed." Natsu wailed. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry."

Gray instantly shook and said. "Snap out of it, Natsu." Natsu was in shocked state. "What you did was right. You can't blame yourself for this." He said. "I can. I'm the reason that this is happening. I just don't know what to do anymore." He said. Natsu looked at his hands. It was trembling. Gray touched his hands and hugged him.

"Don't worry. That person is not going to harm you. Why? Because, I'm going to help you." he said. Natsu looked at him. "Are you sure?" Natsu asks. Gray wiped away his tears. "Don't worry. We'll find this guy and make sure he's locked away for good." Gray gave a warm gentle smile. "Thank you." Natsu pulled himself together.

"Anyway, I should be going now." Gray stops him. "Wait a minute, why don't you stay here with me." he said. "I could use some company. Besides, I don't want you to go out there late at night. "Natsu looked at Gray. "Umm…Sure." He replied. Gray got up and back into the kitchen. "I got some food as well. You want any." Natsu replied. "Of course." Gray grabs some Chinese food and called in for some pizza.

Later on in the evening, Gray was resting on his bed. Natsu was sleep on the other side of the bed. he smiled and caress him by touch his face and hair. "Wow. I didn't know he was cute when he sleeps." He said to himself. He shook his head. "No, what am I saying? I just met the guy." He looks at his face. "But, I want to help Natsu. To make him feel more happy." He hugs around his waist and douse off to sleep.
