Author's note: I think there needs to be more Gray x Erza stories. Am I really the only one that can see the magic between these two? Anyways, this is my third story, I'm new to writing. I'm really excited for this one. I hope you'll enjoy. :)

EDIT: I've rewritten this chapter. It needed it and I'm actually proud of the outcome. :) The other Fairy Tail Characters will be included in the next chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail. Gray and Erza would have been a couple already if I did. They would already be married and have lots of babies. JUST KIDDING of course. :P

Erza's POV

It was another tiring day at school that finally ended. I was thinking that I really had to start paying attention in class or else I'll be in big trouble. But those were worries for later. All I wanted to do was going home and rest a bit.

The sun was going under by the time I walked out the school gate. Since it's winter, the only time I can see the sun is when I'm at school. The lack of sun doesn't bother me. I like the darkness. It makes me feel alive somehow.

I felt a calm breeze come over me while seeing everyone in a hurry to catch the train. I didn't care to hurry up. I was enjoying the moment as I was walking down the red path to the train station.

Finally arrived at the station, I looked for a place to sit. The train shouldn't be there for another ten minutes. While looking for a seat, I saw him. The black-haired guy slowly walked my way. He was wearing a white coat paired with black cargo pants. The thing that was appealing to me the most about him were his eyes. These deep dark brown eyes tend to capture me every time I see them looking my way.

There was something that kept my mind busy though. Why is it that I see him everywhere? We do go to the same school but that's not enough reason to see him all day long everywhere. And what's with this feeling I get every time I see him? I feel the urge to have him close to me. I don't understand a thing. I don't even know his name. I don't know the slightest bit about him. I let out a deep sigh. Guys… Just waste of time. I convinced myself to just ignore him. I really didn't want to get involved with guys.

While my thoughts were keeping my mind occupied, the sound of the train arrival interrupted it. I felt relieved knowing that I could finally sit. I totally forgot about finding a seat at the train station after seeing him.

Standing at the door of the train waiting for a chance to get into the stationary train, I felt his presence next to me. My heart suddenly started beating faster. But I ignored the feeling. I was good at quelling my emotions. I did that my entire childhood long. The things I've been through taught me how to be undemonstrative.

I went to sit to the first free place I saw. That's how exhausted I was. But to my surprise I came to realize that he was now sitting right in front of me. I was just in time to not making him realize my sudden reaction. What was the big deal anyway? It's only a 30-minute drive.

Hmm, I never came to realize how good he looks this close. I could feel that there was something special about him. That was when I ordered my mind to stop thinking like that. ERZA! FOCUS! Stop thinking like that. You're not interested! He probably has a girlfriend anyway. Wait, even if he didn't, it doesn't matter because you're not interested. That was what I told myself. I convinced myself to quiet my emotions for the rest of the ride.

Gray's POV

I was just sitting with my headphones on when she came sitting next to me. After taking a closer look at her, I came to realize she is really pretty. Her scarlet hair and sparkling eyes flashed like the stars in the night sky. Breathtaking. I wanted to talk to her but that would be too awkward. I felt myself heating up. I don't know why it is that she's always the only one that wins my attention. In a crowd of hundreds of people, I see her. I was trying to come up with answers when I realized I was staring at her. I immediately looked the other way desperately hoping she didn't notice me staring. Oh God, I'm such an idiot. Since when do I get so confused just because of a girl? I don't even know her name. That was what I was thinking.

Erza's POV

I caught him looking at me again. Shouldn't that be bothering me? Hmm, well it didn't. But why did I start smiling all of a sudden? Why did I feel so warm? I felt… really happy, but also confused. I felt like I wasn't allowed to feel like that. My mind was trying to convince me that it was a crime to feel like that. I wasn't supposed to feel that way. I told myself to quell my emotions. Until now I didn't have a hard time doing that but with this situation everything changed… What's with this guy?

Right then I came back to the real world and noticed something. The train was going the wrong way!

End of Erza's POV

Erza stood up to find someone in charge of the train. Gray was confused about what she was trying to do. He didn't notice that the train was going the wrong way. He never paid attention on how the train was leaving or what way it was going. And at that moment his mind was busy thinking about the one girl that made him so confused about his feelings.

Erza finally found someone in charge after going to the other side of the train that was moving way too fast.

"I'm sorry sir but where are we going?" Erza asked frowning.
"Don't worry, we'll get you to a nice place." Said the man laughing. He was wearing a black uniform. The way he was talking made Erza furious. Her hands closed into fists .
"What? What the hell are you saying?" She shouted. Her smile belied her anger.
"Go back to your seat if you want to keep living missy!" Said the kidnapper annoyed without paying attention to her.

He nonchalantly walked towards a little room that was a few meters ahead. The scarlet-haired woman was about to go after him when someone held her arm and pointed to the hand of the kidnapper. He was holding a gun. Erza didn't go further. She thought it would be pointless for her to pick up a fight. But she needed to do something. While she was busy thinking, the door of the little room opened and three dark figures appeared. All three armed.

The people in the train started asking questions by now. Some of them were scared to death wishing that it was all a big joke. Others were so petrified that they couldn't think straight and were silent. They could feel the tension rising inside the train.

"We kidnapped this train. If I were you I'd just stop talking and sit the heck down." The man looked like a serial killer.

Gray saw how the man treated Erza and this made him furious. He couldn't think straight anymore. He felt like it was his duty to interfere in this situation.

"Oi! What the heck do you think you're doing?" Gray shouted, his arms were trembling.

The man ignored him.

"I'm talking to you, you idiot!" Gray felt the cold inside him taking over. He was so maddened that he felt cold sweat dropping on his back. If there's one thing he hates, it's being ignored.
"What did you call me? Say it again and you'll be begging for mercy!" The abductor started walking towards Gray.
"I said that you're an idiot!" Gray shouted so loud that the whole train heard him. Everyone was shocked. Is this guy dumb? They have weapons! That was what the people on the train were thinking.

Gray staggered back when the kidnapper slammed his fist right into his face. The black-haired tasted his blood dropping of his lips. The abductor fell on the cold floor when Gray repaid the guy with a fierce kick in his stomach. The two other men came and held Gray tight. The guy on the ground stood up and beat the fearless one without stopping. After beating him up, they threw him on his seat and went back to the little room.

"Oh God, what have they done to you? You look horrible!" Erza said worried while she was running back to her seat after seeing Gray in that state.
"Why thank you for the compliment." Gray tried to smile but ended up coughing.
"Why are you smiling? They almost killed you, you're crazy!" Erza got annoyed.
"What's wrong with being crazy?" He said while winking at her. What Gray tried to do was to lessen Erza's worries. He didn't want her to be worried even though the fact that she cared made him feel bizarrely good. He enjoyed the feeling but couldn't let her get even more worried.

Erza started blushing no matter how hard she tried to avoid it.

Erza's POV

He's such an idiot. My heart was racing back there…

"Euh, euh… I… I… you…" I stuttered while I was blushing even harder.

I still can't figure out how a guy made me stutter like that. Me… Erza Scarlet was… stuttering? I made a fool of myself.

End of Erza's POV

Gray smiled at her. He found that the Scarlet-haired was really cute stuttering like that.

"Do you have a scarf or something? I need to stop this bleeding. By the way, I'm Gray, what's your name?" He asked while forming a mysterious smile.
"Euh… sure… of course… here you go. And I'm Erza, but you really are a weird one. Introducing yourself when you're in this much pain." She said while handing over her brown scarf. She was questioning herself why it was that this guy seemed so fearless.

While Gray was trying to cease the bleeding with Erza's scarf, they saw the three man walking out the little room with an evil smile on their faces.

"You probably realized by now that you can't call or text anyone in here, there's no signal in this train. but to be sure… everyone! Hand over your cellphones!" The kidnapper in the middle screamed while hovering a box in front of a woman. She immediately put her cellphone in the box. Fear shot through her arms and pierced all hope of survival.

The rest of the train wasn't anything different from the frightened woman. After seeing what the men did to Gray, they couldn't even try to act like they weren't scared. They all handed in their phones startled. However when the abductor hovered the box in front of Erza, she had a totally opposed reaction. Erza was known for her fearless personality. If she put her mind on something she wants to do, she'll make it happen no matter what.

"I'm not giving you anything!" Erza said looking fearlessly in the kidnapper's eyes.
"What? You again? Do you want to end up like your friend?" He annoyingly said while pointing to Gray. This behavior made Erza lose control over her anger.
"I'm not scared of you!" The scarlet-haired yelled. She was shaking with the anger trapped in her body. Gray was surprised, he had never seen her like that, but he did know that she wasn't like the other girls he knew.
"It's no use." The kidnapper said while taking a closer look at Erza.
"Hmm… it's been a while since I've seen such a sexy girl." The abductor looked very carefully at the body of the fearless woman. Erza's expression changed. Her anger turned into confusion.

The man pulled her from her seat and held her in front of his body closely. Erza could feel his breath on her neck. Then he lay his hand on her leg and started moving it upwards sliding her shirt up. He enjoyed touching her skin.

"What the hell are you doing? STOP IT!" Erza was yelling desperately with her eyes closed. She tried to stop him but was unable to get out of his grip. Tears were dropping on her cheeks.

But then….

Erza felt relieved feeling the disgusting touch vanishing. She got confused seeing the attacker falling on the ground. The Scarlet-haired couldn't understand a thing about what has happened until she heard his voice.

"If you dare to touch her once more, I'll take away your life! That's a promise!" Gray was like a thunder storm ready to explode. Nothing ever made him this furious. The look on his face even made the attacker scared for a few minutes.

"Gray…" Erza said completely bewildered with big eyes looking at him.
