(Gray's POV)
I was starting to get bored from sitting here. It's been 2 hours already and nothing has happened to entertain us. Erza was a sorcerer's weekly magazine; we had a photo shoot a few days ago so were probably in it. She smirked at the page she was reading and flipped it. Now, I'm curious about what it is.
"Hey Erza what were you smirking at?" I asked. Natsu heard this and turned to her as well. "It says that Sorcerers weekly thinks there's love in the air at the guild." She said. I was really curious now, "With who?" I asked. She smirked, "Oh I don't think you want to know that." She said and put the magazine in her bag. I was so curious now that it's practically killing me. The train came to a stop and I looked out the window. "We have arrived at the stop of Akane; you may now exit the train." The conductor said. We stood up and exited the train.
"Alright, now that were here we can head to the beach." Natsu said. I smiled and Erza just smirked. "Alright, so all we have to do is head down this road and we should see it." I said. Natsu fist pumped the air and we started walk down the road towards the beach. I looked at Natsu and saw how the sunlight reflected off his hair. I made him look so innocent, not to mention how innocent his face looked in that sunlight. I turned away quickly, what the hell am I talking about. I can't think of Natsu like that. I need to focus on the main thing, the beach.
"Natsu, I see the beach." Happy said. Natsu chuckled, "Alright, let's get this party started." He said. I chuckled and we picked up the pace to the beach. When I felt the hot sand under my feet, I knew we hit the beach. Did I mention it was hot. "Damn, this stuff is hot." I said. "I don't feel that bad." Natu said. "You're a fire mage, of course it won't feel that bad." I said. "Your such babies." Erza said.
We stopped right near the water and set up a blanket and umbrella. Natsu tied his scarf to his head and I would have thought it was weird but it actually looked good on him. Erza had requipped into her black bikini and was getting impatient. "Alright, let's hurry it up." Erza said impatienty. I took off my shirt since I was already my trunks. Natsu already had his on as well so he was ready. We ran into the water and me and Natsu had started a contest. "Hey Natsu, let's have a challenge." I said. He looked at me with the fire in his eyes. "What did you have in mind?" he asked. I smirked, "Let's have a contest, the one who can go the farthest wins." I said. He smirked, "Alright, it's on." He said.
(Natsu's POV)
He smirked at me and we got in position. "Ready guys?" Happy asked. "Yeah, just give us the signal Happy." I yelled. "Aye." He cheered. He stood in front of us and raised his arms up. "3…2…1 GO." He yelled. Me and Gray swam off and it was intense. We were neck in neck, we both really wanted to win this race. He was starting to get tired and so was I. I looked ahead and saw that there was a jelly fish in front of Gray. I gasped and stood up. "Gray, look out." I yelled. I jumped at him and pushed him away. We went under water and then I soon resurfused. I gasped for breath and saw that Gray was coming up for air. He came out as if in slow motion. He took a deep breath and shook his head back and forth to get the water out of his hair. I gasped at how good he looked. I felt my heart quicken and he looked at me. "What was that for?" He asked. "T-There was a jellyfish in front of you and I-I didn't want it to sting you." I said. Oh great, I'm stuttering, this is just great. Natsu Dragneel does not stutter. He was looking at me with those eyes, it was so hard not to. Man how does Juvia stand this. "Natsu." He said. I was so nervous that I don't notice him coming forward. He put a hand on my shoulder and I jumped. "What's gotten into you Natsu?" He asked. Oh man I can't hold back any longer if he keeps touching me. He put his other hand on my shoulder and I finally lost it. I leaned forward and crash our lips together. His eyes widened and I instantly pulled away. He was frozen and he looked at me. I looked the other way to see Erzas' jaw hit the water. I had tears in my eyes and I ran out of the water. "Natsu." He yelled. I didn't want to hear him reject me so I just kept running. My eyes started to sting but I kept running. I ended up at a river and sat at the edge of it let my tears flow. "What have I done?" I said.
