It's a sunny day in the small town of Magnolia. The grass-fields barron except one particular pink-haired dragon slayer. Natsu Dragneel. He lay, thinking, with his hands covering his face. The wind started to pick up. His scarf-that Igneel made him- was tugging to fly away, but he grabbed it, securing the white treasure. Natsu, through his hand, looked up at the sky sighing. He had been acting very...weird recently. His heart was taking a fast ride down beat lane and he became very nervous whenever he saw that idiot of an ice block. Yesterday, at the guild, both men were sitting at their usual table, across from each other. Lucy and Erza went on some mission so it just the two of them. Gray had made a comment on Natsu's lack of jobs.

"So, how come you haven't taken any jobs lately, Flamehead? You've gotten soft?"Gray snickered.

"...Shut up."Natsu muttered, and that was all he could say. If he said anymore, he probably would've burst. After seeing Natsu's face though, Gray sighed. He reached over and poked his pink-haired friend in the forehead.

"What's up-"Natsu quickly smacked his hand away and got up.

"Don't touch me!"And with that, he ran out as fast as a lightning bolt. Gray, being the observant self he is, noticed before Natsu turned a slight tinge of maroon color on his cheeks. What the hell? Gray thought.

Now it's the next day, and before Natsu headed to the guild, he thought about the consequences of leaving this spot. Well...Gray would most likely confront me about my 'problem', and then Erza would kill-literally throw me across the room and probably kill- me if I didn't show up, and Lucy...Ah, well she'll probably bug me with questions, or complain about how I didn't tell her. What do I do?

"Confess to him." Happy, Natsu's talking blue cat, answered as though he read his mind. Happy was always by Natsu's side but sometimes he would just appear out of no where. Natsu flinched at the thought as he looked up at his friend.

"W-what? C-confess? Why would I do that? I don't like Gray like that!"He laughed nervously. He didn't. How could he? Besides, even ifhe did, guys can't be together.

"Suurree! You liiiiiiike him!"Natsu tried to grab him but the cat flew up and out of reach.

"Shut up Happy!"Natsu jumped into the air, only meeting grass.

"Oooh! Want me to go tell him?!"

"N-No! Don't!"Happy flew away, ignoring Natsu's plead. Natsu then growled and ran after Happy. He was looking up, looking for the stupid flying cat, that he didn't realize he bumped into someone. His head hit something hard, something metal, and he flew backwards. He stayed lying there, not wanting to move anymore. Now my life is over, Gray will know that I like him, which I don't even know if I do, and he'll probably just laugh...He thought.

"Natsu?"It's Mirajane.

"Get up."And Erza. Natsu opened his eyes and lifted his head to look at the girls, but sighed and put it back down.

"I just wanna lay here.."He replied.

"I've noticed you've been acting out on Gray recently. Is something the matter?"Erza asked.

"Yes...no...I don't know.."

Erza bent down and grabbed him by his vest, so he could look them in the eye when he spoke to them. She hated that most. "If something's wrong, you can tell us, Natsu."

"I-I..just..can't."He looked down to the other direction, hiding his face. Erza let go of him and sighed.

"Erza, let's just leave him be. He looks like he needs to think."Mirajane said. Erza nodded and they started leaving. Natsu looked back up. He did need to think...but he could'nt do it alone.

"Wait!"He called out. Mirajane smiled to herself. She knew he would.

"You'll tell us now?"Erza asked as she and Mirajane turned back around.

"Yeah..."

"Good."They sat down on a nearby bench, Mirajane put her hands in her lap and Natsu played with his thumbs. Erza folded her hands together.

"So.."Mirajane started.

"So...I know I've been acting out..and it's something I'm very confused about...but something that I don't even know, so I don't know how to tell you.."

"Is it about Gray?"Erza asked. Natsu nodded slowly.

"Start with how you feel."Mirajane said.

"O-Okay...I..whenever I see that idiots face..I just...my heart takes turns trying to beat me up...No, that's not it.. it beats even faster when I think of him or look at him, or he talks to me...and I feel like it's going to explode any minute...And...I think I may be in love with Gray."

Erza gasps.

Mirajane deepens her smile. She isn't shocked, she knew all along.
