A/N- I want to thank Leiko Takara. She helped begin this chapter when I had terrible writers block. I also give thanks to the reviews for they motivated me for this chapter. Also thanks to anyone that reads it. I truly do appreciate it.

Anyway this chapter shows how Lucy thinks of Gray. She and him have had bad chemistry in the past. Still if you think about it carefully you can tell that she forgot Natsu for a while thanks to him. So sorry for talking too much. Enjoy

Lucy woke up aching all over. Her head was throbbing and her body felt sore. When her eyes focused she found herself in a room. But this wasn't her room. She slowly sat up. The room looked empty. There was nothing but a small table with a phone on it, a TV, a door which looked to be leading to a kitchen, and a bed she was laying on. "W-where am I?" she thought. "H-how did I get here?"

She began to stand up, but as she did her legs felt wobbly. She quickly fell back onto the bed. She sat on the bed thinking for a moment. Soon flashes of Natsu came through her mind and she remembered what happened. She had passed out in the park from shock.

Lisanna came through her mind as well. Lucy remembered the girl kissing Natsu passionately, while her evil little eyes wondered to Lucy who watched. She started to shake but this time it was with anger. How could she have just ran away like that? How could she not tell them off? A weak girl she thought of herself.

Her head hurt again but that didn't stop her from thinking about the pair. "I've got to get out of here..." she said. But as much as she wanted to move, her body wouldn't let her get up. It hurt even more as she thought about them. She felt like her head was spinning. She closed her eyes and put her hand against her forehead.

"Are you alright Lucy?" a voice said.

"N-Natsu! No don't be a fool Lucy... Natsu is gone..."

She opened her eyes and saw a tall, boy with short, spiky, black hair looking down at her with her with his white/black eyes. "G-gray!" she asked surprised.

He smiled. "Well it's good to see that you're awake. I was afraid that I wouldn't have a bed to sleep in tonight?" he said jokingly.

"T-tonight?"

"Yeah it's already night."

"How did I get here?"

"Oh I brought you here," he said smiling.

"You mean you followed me!" she shouted.

" I didn't follow you. I just was walking through the park and saw you lying there. For a moment I thought you were dead but when I realized you weren't I picked you up and brought you here."

"Well thank you but I'm going home now!" She stood up quickly and walked over to the door. She was still in a lot of pain but she didn't care. All she wanted to do was get out of here.

"I don't think you want to go out right now," Gray said as Lucy's hand reached for the door.

"And why not!" she said turning to him and seeing him sit down on the floor near his bed smiling.

"Well it's already night and you know what type of guys go lurking around at night," he said grinning.

"Guys like you right!"

For a moment Gray just looked at her. "You never change do you Lucy? You're still the same girl I left 2 years ago."

" At least I don't ..." Lucy stopped and closed her mouth. The past was the one thing she didn't want in her mind right now. "I'm... leaving..." She turned around to the door to leave but as she did she saw that the knob was covered in ice. She quickly turned to Gray who was still grinning. "Unfreeze the door knob!" she persisted.

"Sorry Lucy but I can't let you go. I don't want you to get hurt out there."

"I'd rather be out there that with you!"

"Calm down Lucy," Gray said calmly. "And relax."

"Open the door Gray," Lucy said seriously. "Or I'll...

"Summon your little friends." Lucy froze. "Just as I thought. You still have those sprits don't you?"

"Yeah so what if I do!"

"Well I thought that after two years you would've become a little bit stronger. But I guess a girl like you always has to rely on others to be strong right?"

"SHUT UP GRAY!" she roared. Gray just smiled. He seemed to be getting enjoyment out of seeing Lucy like this.

He then stood up and walked over to her. Soon Lucy found herself backed up against the door and Gray right in front of her face. He didn't say a word. His eyes just looked at Lucy intently. They wondered to her hair, then her eyes and soon her chest. Lucy began to feel nervous. She didn't know what she would do if Gray made a move on her. She knew she couldn't summon her sprits because of her weak state right now. But to Lucy's amazement he just turned away and sighed. "It's too bad..."

"What's too bad?" she asked.

Gray turned to her with a long face. "Well your hair is longer and your eyes look different but you still have a same size chest." Gray sighed" I mean I thought they would look a little bigger but I guess there still the same. You aren't really mature compared to the other women I've..." but before he finished his sentence Lucy went over to him and punched him right in the face. "OW!" he yelled falling to the floor. "What was that for!'

He looked up and began to shiver. Lucy's eyes had a fiery blaze in them and her fists began to crack. She was about to attack him. But instead of doing that, she took a deep breath, went back to the door, and hit the ice right off the knob. The door swung opened and as she was about to leave she turned to Gray and gave him one last malevolent stare.

When Lucy was gone, Gray sat on the floor with a shocked expression and then laughed. "I guess I was wrong about her strength. That punch was even harder than the last time she hit me." Gray sighed, stood up, and rubbed his nose. "Ahh I think she broke it." He then gave a smile. "Man Lucy manipulating you is just way too easy."

When Lucy reached her home, the sun was completely gone. She was right by her door trying to catch her breath. Her day was terrible. First losing the man she loved then dealing with an old enemy. Could this day get any worse for her?

She opened the door, and walked through her home to her room. Everything looked the same, even if Lucy felt different. The room was dark and quite. Not even her neighbors made a sound.

Lucy soon realized that this summer would most likely be lonely and unsatisfying.
