hey im back again :) yuppie yup yup! ok that was weird :DD ok so new story a bit out of my comfort zone... so let me know what you think.

DISCLAIM: I OWN NOTHING

"Aye Natsu I found a mission." happy said happily (see why i did there?) " how much does it pay?" Natsu asked. they needed money to get Lucy a birthday present. "7000" happy said smiling. "great, is Eza coming with us?" natsu asked, he was growing quite fond of going on missions with Erza. "no, her and jellah are...uhh busy" he said looking away. "and how do you know this?" natsu asked. "but gray is coming with us." happy said trying to change the topic. "why is that bastard coming?" natsu asked. it was hard for Natsu to make fun of gray because he loved gray. "because i know you likeeee him~" happy said. "happy i told you never to say that. what if someone heard you and found out i was gay? ill tell you what. they'll all hate me! i already lost igneel i don't need to loose my friends too. were you even thinking?" natsu asked. he didn't want anyone knowing he was gay. "don't worry no one heard me." happy reassured him. But someone did hear them.

GRAYS POV

"hey guys..." i said but trailed off, happy was telling natsu something. "why is that bastard coming?" i heard natsu ask. ah happy must have just told him i was coming. "because i know you likeeee him~" i heard happy reply. w-what there's no way he likes me. "happy i told you never to say that. what if someone heard you and found out i was gay? ill tell you what, they'll all hate me! i already lost igneel i don't need to loose my friends too. were you even thinking?" i heard natsu ask. n-natsu likes me. i walked out from behind the pole and walked up to natsu and happy.

"hey flame brain you ready to go?" i asked trying not to sound like i heard their entire conversation. "g-gray how l-long have you been standing there?" he asked. "umm i just got her all i heard was happy say 'don't worry no one heard me.' ,so what did no one hear you say?" i asked trying to get natsu to react. "n-nothing, it doesn't matter." he said. "your blushing and your stuttering, what were you talking about?" i asked. "gray, please dont push it. he'll tell you when he's ready." happy whispered into my ear. i wonder if happy knew i heard. "fine. so where and what is this mission?" i asked. "well we have to get some statue from this from this evil guy or something, i dont know, i read the payment and took it." happy replied. wow happy really is just like natsu. "sweet, did you already tell master we were going on this mission?" natsu asked. "Yup, but i don't think he finished his sentence... i just told him then left, i heard him say something about 'special powers' but i don't think he was talking to me." happy said. "ok well lets get our stuff together and go." natsu said happily. Im so going to tease natsu. maybe i won't bring a shirt or pants... heh that would really get to him.

NORMAL POV
everyone got there stuff. gray only brought his black boxers with fire at the bottom. natsu brought a ton of food and his normal clothing. and happy filled his bag with fish. they all met back at natsu favorite restaurant. natsu blushed when he seen what gray was wearing. "c-come droopy eyes you c-could have p-put some clothes o-on." Natsu stuttered. gray turn around and stuck his ass out. "i know, but don't they make me look hot?" gray said grinning. "y-yes... no, n-no they do not." natsu said blushing even more. happy just smiled, happy had figured out that gray had heard them and was now just watching how he would handle this. "come on natsu, i think he looks pretty hot in those." happy said winking at gray. gray got the clue. "b-both of you stop!" natsu said hiding his face. "come on natsu don't be like that, i was only joking." gray said, but the torment wasn't over. "ok, b-but seriously go p-put some clothes on." natsu replied after awhile. "can't all my clothes are dirty." gray smiled, this was going to be fun. "dammit do you ever wash your clothes?" natsu asked. he was really getting pissed. "yes, but my washer broke, and lucy yelled at me when i tried to wash them at her house." gray said. "fine lets just get going." gray said and walked to the wagon of stuff.

"so where are we going happy?" natsu asked. "next town over, that dark scary mansion we see every time we go over." happy said. 'oh why does it have to be a dark and haunted mansion?' gray thought. gray was terrified of the dark but if he told anyone they would tease him. "GRAY!" natsu yelled and snapped gray out of his thoughts. "what?" he asked looking up. "umm were here we've been trying to get you attention for the past 10 minutes." natsu said looking at him. "o-ok well t-then lets g-go." gray stuttered and slowly got up. "gray are you ok? you look a little pale." natsu grabbed his hand. "happy you go check out the place, while i talk to gray." natsu said to happy. "aye sir" (i really wanted to say that :DD) happy said and flew off. "now gray whats wrong. you can tell me?" natsu said and grabbed gray's hand. he pushed his feelings aside to help his friend.

NATSU'S POV.

"...fine but you have to promise no to laugh." he said. "ok i promise." i replied "i-i'm scared..." gray said. "scared of what droopy eyes?" i asked. i need to pretend to be normal for once in my life. "could you please stop calling me droopy eyes." he said. wow it was bothering him that much. "yea sorry. But really what's wrong?" i asked. "i already told you. im scared." no dip sherlock scared of what? "i already know that. what are you scared of?" why is he being so difficult. "ghosts, haunted mansions... something else" he said trailing off. "well i can see why, but whats the last thing?" i asked.

"the d-dark..." gray is afraid of the dark?! "really? why?" ok that sounded stupid. "remember when we went to galuna island? (i hoped i spelled that right)?" he said looking down. "yea, but i still don't understand." i said calmly. "well you know how lyon tried to release deliora?" he said slightly leaning closer to me. "yea so your scared of deliora?" i asked. "no, well when i was about to turn my body into ice to encage it... i had a vision. it was me standing alone, there was a table in front of me with a knife on it. this place was pitch black, and Ur came out of nowhere and walked up to me, she hugged me crying, she looked at me with death in her eyes and said "it's time for me to go." and stabbed herself in the neck. i tried to stop the bleeding but no matter how far i ran, she was always just out of my reach, and the whole time i heard lyon laughing evilly and saying 'i can finally be stronger than her'..." he said crying.

i hugged him and tried to calm him. "gray, i-i had no idea." he looked up at me and smiled weekly. "n-natsu?" he said hugging me. "yea gray?" i looked down at him. "do you like my boxers?" i just smiled. "yes droopy eyes i do." we both laughed and i wiped his eyes and stood him yup. "hey gray..." i said. i think im ready to tell him. "what is it pinkie?" he looked at me with care andcuriosity in his eyes. "n-never mind." i looked away. why did i chicken out again?! "oh ok... well w-will you stay close to me when were in the mansion? ya know 'cause the dark and stuff?" he asked quietly. "of corse droopy eyes" we both smiled and headed towards happy. "Thanks"
