CHAPTER THREE
***

Believing that at that very moment he was rushing inside of a hospital only to check on his enemy could be seen as the funniest thing in the world, in fact Natsu Dragneel was trying his best to not burst in laughter however, deep down he was worried. Worried that the other could be completely sick and as well out of his mind. Why? Why him? Couldn't he ask for his parents when the doctor said to contact someone? Couldn't he ask for his friends? No matter how many questions were flying through his mind none of them had an answer. Sighing, the pinkish haired male moved his feet towards the reception counter ignoring every single weird glance –he was used to it.

There is no words to describe how uncomfortable he was with every single doctor looking at him or the sick people wandering through the white long corridors, indeed Natsu hated hospitals as much as he hated anything else in life. He hated how the doctors kept promises that they couldn't fulfill or how the nurses faked be so nice when from behind the only words slipping past their lips were nothing but dumb comments about how ugly or stupid the patient is. Believe it or not, not everything is what it seems to be and the hospital is one of those things. Nothing is real in fact it's just a group of liars who enjoy money.

But then again that was his point of view, what he hated, he hated. Leaning his hips against the large, high counter in the middle of the room the handsome boy lapped his tongue over his pinkish bottom lip whilst inclining his head to the side obviously observing the nurse looking at him., the same nurse that was far from being delighted with his presence yet Natsu couldn't care less about her likes and dislikes. Tapping his fingers down on that same counter, Natsu looked straight into her eyes as his lips curve themselves upon a thing that you could call smile. Yeah, he wasn't the kind of guy to smile especially when the person in front of him showed the obvious dislike.

"I am here to see Gray Fullbuster." Natsu said loud and clear while nodding. "He was admitted tonight because of hyperthermia or so I was told."

"Are you family?" The nurse asked in returned, raising one of her eyebrows as she checked the room's number in her computer screen. "At this hour we only accept family."

"What? Are you telling me that I came here for nothing?" Natsu nearly yelled as his eyes fluttered shut. No, he wasn't in the mood for little games and no matter what they told him, he was going to see him. "Look, I might not be his family but I am close to it so either you let me in or I'll cause a scene. I didn't come here to go back home which isn't near here either…"

Sure, the pinkish haired male was laying both of him and Gray were far from being called family in fact they couldn't see each other therefore he wasn't going to leave without seeing him, the guilty heaving over his shoulders was way too much to handle. Why couldn't he just check if the later was okay? Or even say hello and then go back to his welcome small apartment downtown? He did have school after all and then needed to work to pay his bills but then again, he was curious about something else. He was curious about why the latter's parents didn't come to see him. Was Gray that bad? So bad that they seriously disowned him? Obviously, parents are a pain in the ass.

"I don't think I can help you sir." The annoying nurse retorted making the pinkish haired male quite angry as the continued her speech about this and that, a speech that had no interest to the other. "So please you should just…"

"Listen, I told you that I ain't going anymore and are you deaf or something? Do you really think just because you don't like my face I'll let you look down on me? Either you let me in or I'll call the police officer that accompanied me." The pinkish haired male said as he pointed his finger in her direction. "That guy called my name while he was falling unconscious and believe me it surprised the hell out of me but it that's a discussion to another time at this very moment I just want to go check on him and then go back home."

No matter how many words the handsome boy said, no matter how much he tried to explain and make a point the nurse was obviously trying to win a battle that she already had lost and somehow when the police officer which took him to the hospital made his entrance, the pinkish haired male raised his hand in the air and motioned the guy to come closer. Pleased? No, he was far from being pleased however he was his only chance to check Gray. A chance that he couldn't miss. "Mister, she won't let me in. What should I do?"

As the police officer walked towards the counter the only thing Natsu saw was a small card being placed next to his elbow and a very much annoying smile to his liking. So, she was indeed trying to win a battle yet it was obvious how much she disliked losing but for Natsu enjoyment, he leaned closer and managed to wink at her. "See you next time sunshine. Shall I give you my number later?"

Laughing as if he had won the lottery, the handsome boy raised the card being held in between his fingers searching for the room number in question, the same number that soon appeared printed in black. Now, where should we go to find this room? Upstairs? Downstairs? Right or left? Finding the mission quite hard, Natsu brought his other hand up to his hair to slowly scratch it. Lost? Yes, he was completely lost and that's obviously one other reasons he hated hospitals. Letting a soft sigh slip past his lips, the handsome boy started to move his feet over the polished ground to find the room in question and thirty minutes later, he managed to find his way.

"Now, how should I make myself noticeable? Should I punch his ribs or simply say hi?" Natsu said as he looked to both of his sides, trying to check if someone was peeping on him. "Guess, I'll treat him like a normal person."

Holding the knob in his hand, turning this one every so lightly the handsome boy closed his eyes as the suspense slowly killed him. He was scared. Scared about the others reaction. Scared to see the other weak and seriously sick yet the most worrisome thing was seeing the other cry over the parents who left him without nothing. But, would Gray really cry over something so meaningless? Natsu didn't think so and slowly he walked inside, hearing the soft thump of the door closing behind him with a serious racing heart. The moment he was fearing finally came however instead of seeing a sick Gray he saw his so called enemy, sleeping peacefully under the white blankets offered by the hospital.

Needless was to say that seeing Gray looking so peaceful did do something to his already racing heart but not only his peacefulness. The boy was looking so adorable with his eyes shut and his darkish messy hair even though his skin looked as pale as the snow and the dark circles underneath his eyes looked somewhat bad. Taking a few more steps closer, the pinkish haired male sat on the chair place beside the bed, watching the other sleep but as well sighing from time to time. Beautiful? Not the perfect word to describe a man but Gray, he was beautiful, cute even. Shaking all the thoughts away from his mind, Natsu straighten up on his sit to bring one of his hand closer to the others face, brushing away a few bangs that previously fell over his eyes.

It was impossible to believe that someone like him was now homeless. Impossible to believe that someone as rich as him needed to work in some bookstore to pay the same bills he needed to pay therefore, they weren't exactly the same. Natsu suffered from loss since his youngest age but as well from hunger and loneliness while Gray, while the pinkish haired male was lost and completely unware of the world they were currently living, the darkish haired male had everything without asking. Starting from food and drinks to end up with toys and happiness. Yes, both were so different but somewhat alike even though he would never admitted it, not in front of his enemy.

Brushing one of his fingers over Gray's forehead, the pinkish haired male curved his lips upon a smile, shaking his head in process as he thought how adorable the other was when sleeping. How cute he pursed his lips as his cold fingers brushed his hot skin. "You know, you ain't as bad as you seem but no matter what I might say now, everything will go back to normal once you wake up. I'm your enemy and you are mine but remember, even if I hate you I'll help you with work and some other stuff and you know why? Because I ain't as bad as you think I am in reality I am pretty good."

Natsu couldn't believe in his eyes when he passed through the double doors of high school. He couldn't believe how Gray friends completely ignored him as he passed by them or how the girls that somehow disliked him now looked in his direction. Perhaps he was imagining things or even drunk since once he got home he let his desire for chocolate scream higher than his mind but then again, Gray wasn't there. Shaking his head as he walked to his locker, the handsome boy threw his books inside as yet another girl stepped closer with a pinkish letter in her hand. What, another confession? Looking at the girl from head to toe, observing every single curve of her body to then end up on her watching her face, Natsu leaned his shoulder against the locker and crossed both of his arms over his chest.

So, the girl wasn't as bad as he thought like previously stated she had the most defined curves and a pair of big boobs –not that he liked them big- but the most mesmerizing thing was indeed her beautiful brown eyes. Releasing that he had never seen her before, the pinkish haired male approached her face from hers to feel nothing but a slap on the back of his head which obviously didn't amused this one. Turning his head to check who the heck the guts to slap him, Natsu soon found himself rolling his eyes and whisper a few curses under his breath before punching his locker shut. He wasn't in the mood to hear the loud Sting.

"Hey, are you going to ignore my awesome welcoming?" The latter said as he approached the pinkish haired male which was already walking to his first class. "You are so mean…"

"You'll see how mean I am if you don't fuck off right now. I am not in the mood to hear your crap." Natsu retorted, turning at some point to continue his way towards the classroom.

"Look, I just want to ask a favor…"

"And what kind of favor might you be asking this time?"

"Can you tell the boss that I won't be work today? I have a date."

"You sure have the guts to miss work to go on a date. You seriously are a brat." The pinkish haired male groaned as he run his slender fingers through his hair. "Whatever."

"Is that an yes?" String said, clapping his hands together as he smiled.

"I'll see it later. I might not say anything or vise-verse."

"You really are a pain in the ass Natsu…"

"Not as much as you, now fuck off already."

"One last thing!" Sting said, almost yelling which made Natsu twirl on his toes to glare at him. God, why did god bring a guy like him to his life?

"What the heck do you want now?"

"Are you going to reject the girl like that? You now Lucy is beautiful and popular and I heard somewhere that she is completely in love with you."

"As if I care. I am not looking for love in fact love is nothing but a pain in the ass but you can take her since you are the biggest player known in our school."

"Dude, you are so weird."

"And you are annoying."

Turning back to face his way back to his classroom, the handsome boy sighed and shook his head. Damn, if he could just be in peace for one day, he would do anything for the rest of his life however, it was mostly impossible. Why? The reason is quite simple. It didn't matter if Gray wasn't in school to piss the hell out of him because in his place there was someone else and that someone else is no other than the blondish guy, Sting. No, they weren't friends. No, they didn't hang out or speak much but when this one opened his mouth it is almost impossible to shut up him and that's some other thing that Natsu hated. Peace and silence, the best things in the world.

Looking through the window, the handsome boy watched the group of students running through the marked ground, enjoying themselves and obviously laughing for some unknown reason and while they laughed Natsu was stuck inside of a classroom hearing stupidities about a time that he wasn't even born. A time where humans being had magic and fought evil. It should be interesting but the pinkish haired male wasn't. He needed to think about the present and seek for the future which wasn't announced to be bright: Indeed, a pain in the ass. Running his fingers through his silky hair, Natsu propped his jawline over his hand's palm while now facing the black board. Words, sentences and questions was this person really a teacher or just someone useless who liked to talk about everything and anything?

Sliding one of his hands deep on his pants pockets, the handsome boy took out his phone to check if there was new emails and for his surprise there was a new email, an email that hand no number well it had a number but it was indeed unknown for the other. Clicking on the bottom to open the email, the pinkish haired male soon widen his eyes as a few more curses slip past his parted lips. Seriously, who the heck does this guy think he is? Isn't he sick and laying on a hospital bed? And more importantly, how in the heck did he find his cellphone number? Rubbing one of his hands down on his uniform pants, the handsome boy then started to replay to the stupid message. No matter where he was, Gray could be present everywhere even when sick.

From Natsu:
To Ugly duck:

Listen you dumbass, you better stop the insults or I'm going to kick your ass as soon as I end my shift at work. Yes, I did go see you but it was your damn fault. Next time do not say my name and shut that useless mouth of yours or even better next time make it move in some pleasurable place I know. Just sleep and shut up.

From Gray:
To useless brain:

Disgusting, you are nothing but a frustrated kid and how come I said your name? I would never say your name especially when both of my heart and mind know how much I hate your guts so if you ever come see me again, make sure to wake me up so I can easily kick your ass out.

From Natsu:
To ugly duck:

Oh really? Kicking my ass? How about me kicking yours? Oh by the way, just to make you happy I'll be visiting today too. You know, your smile makes me see the stars above and then return to earth to puke my stomach out, useless shit.

From Gray:
To Useless brain:

I'll fucking kill you if you come here again.

From Natsu:
To ugly duck:
See you later, beautiful. I'll make sure to give a goodnight kiss tonight and obviously don't miss me too much!

From Gray:
To useless brain:
I hate you. Die.

From Natsu:
To ugly duck:

I love you too, sunshine.
