Chapter 3 - A Fun Lunch with Gray

Mira had an mischievous idea, which she immediately shared to Lucy. She quickly ran to Lucy and whispered the idea to her.

"Huhhh?! Gray?!" she said in shocking manner.

Mira nodded with a wide smile,"Yes, we will let Erza stay in Gray's apartment until she's back to her usual self."

Lucy looked down with her right hand on her chin, in a worried look, "But isn't kinda...dirty." Mira repeated the last word questionably.

Lucy lifted her head up, "You know, Erza, who doesn't know who she really is. She's also wearing that cat suit, thats too..revealing. Isn't it kinda distracting for Gray."

Mira opened her mouth to answer, but Lucy still continued, "Here's also an important note, two of them in his apartment, alone."

"Don't say those stuff, Lucy. Erza had known Gray for years, he's a good guy, except with his stripping habit and all." Mira said with eyes closed, then tilted her head to the right, seeing the scarlet-haired mage, squeezing the life out of Gray, then looked back at Lucy.

Mira said softly, "They're best friends."

Lucy smiled, but immediately replaced by scary devilish eyes, her aura darkened, molding both her hands into fists.

"But if he hurts my best friend, I'll kill him." she said in a demonic voice.

Mira chuckled. So Lucy agreed to Mira's idea and walked to Erza to ask if she wants to have 'sleepover' in Gray's house.

"Hey Erza?" Lucy asked in a casual tone.

"Yes, Lu-chan?" Erza asked back with kitty-like smile, her hands wrapped around Gray's neck.

Lucy pointed a finger at Gray, "Gray invited you to a sleepover at his house."

Gray's eyes widened in shock and his face suddenly turned red at the dirty images running in his mind. He gave Lucy a I-didn't-say-that look. Lucy lightly chuckled, then molded words from her mouth saying, "Just go with it." , Gray nodded in response.

Erza squealed, "Gray-kun, I loved to."

Gray grinned of what he'd just heard from the Queen of Fairies. He was glad that Erza smiled and was happy.

But he's mood changed when the guild doors opened and trouble walked in. A handsome, tall, young man with orange hair, light brown eyes, a charming smile, that can make girls faint.

"Hello Hibiki, how was the mission?" Mira happily greeted.

"It went good." he answered in a smooth, silky voice. Then he spotted the face of his beloved Erza and walked right up to her.

"Hey guys." Everyone greeted him except for Gray, who just grunted before looking away. Erza stood up, but Gray still remained in his sitting position.

Hibiki almost stumbled when when he saw Erza's attire. "Erza? You're wearing a cat costume?. You look cute in that."

Gray gritted his teeth in annoyance. Lucy quietly explained Hibiki everything, especially that Erza needs a place to stay.

After Lucy said that last part, Hibiki grew a mischievous smile on his face.

"So Erza needs a place to stay huh? I'll let her stay in my mansion, there I can get her to like me and make her mine and mine only. I tell her that I love her, kiss her, even make out with her."

His mind flashed perverted images, that made blood trickle down his nose. Gray saw this, and knows exactly what he was thinking. Gray quickly stood up and faced him.

"Hey Hibiki, stop thinking about unnecessary stuff when-" Hibiki shoved Gray to the side and gave Erza one of his best smiles.

"Hey Erza, what about you stay in my mansion. It will be a lot of fun." he said in a charming tone.

Erza blinked a few times, "Sorry Hibiki-kun, Gray-kun asked me first."

Hibiki snarled in disagreement, "What that stripping bastard?"

"Quit complaining. Erza already said yes to me." Gray growled.

Erza shyly said, "Guys, no need to argue because of me. I'll find another place to stay."

Mira jumped in, placing a hand on her shoulder, "No, its okay Erza. They're always like that, It's not your fault."

Erza nodded in response. Mira smiled, "Okay lets eat, guys. I made lunch for everyone." she said while rubbing both her hands together.

Everyone is enjoying themselves with Mira's cooking, except for Erza, who was staring at the window in deep thought. Of course, Gray was worried about her, so he approached her and asked what was bothering her.

"Hey Erza?" Erza faced him with a raised eyebrow.

"Is there something wrong?" he asked, concerned.

Erza chuckled before smiling, "No everything is fine. Nothing to worry about."

Gray sighed, before lowering himself, leveling his head next to Erza's. They looked at each other eye to eye, Gray's eyes were full of seriousness.

"But if there's something wrong, you tell me okay?" Erza smiled. He smiled too. They stayed in that trance for thirty seconds.

Then Gray snapped back to reality. He got up, quickly ran to the counter, grabbed a pink lunchbox and went back to Erza.

"You hungry? I got us some lunch.", Gray held the lunchbox infront of her.

Erza shook her head until her stomach grumbled. Erza blushed at the disturbing sound her tummy made, she tightly held her stomach to keep it quiet. Gray chuckled. Erza looked down in embarrassment. Gray chuckled a bit more.

Gray teased, "C'mon I know you want some.".

Erza gave up and held the spoon and ate a piece of riceball. As soon as she swallowed it, she was speechless. She didn't say anything, she just savored the delicious riceball, her furry cat ears fluttered.

"It tastes good. Can I have another one?" she in a cheery manner.

Gray grinned, "Sure, have as much as you want."

Erza eagerly took another riceball in her mouth and enjoyed the flavor. Gray stared at the requip mage, he never thought that the scary, fierce Erza can turn into a sweet, cute girl. He continued to stare and couldn't help but smile.

"She looks so innocent, almost like a child."Gray whispered.

"You want some?" Erza asked, as she held the spoon.

"No it's all yours." Gray said.

Erza furrowed her eyebrows. She can't just let him watch her eat, while he is dying of hunger.

"Say 'Aahh'." Erza said, as she took a piece of riceball with a spoon and held it infront of Gray.

He blinked in confusion, but he couldn't say no to Erza's smiling face. So he leaned forward and bit the riceball with flushed cheeks.

"Mmm..tastes good." Gray said in surprise.

Somehow Juvia popped behind a pillar, glaring at the two like they were some happy lovey-dovey couple.

Juvia told herself, "Ahh! Erza is feeding Gray-sama his lunch that Juvia made for him. It should be Juvia who should feed Gray-sama. Juvia needs to stop this."

Before Juvia can ambush Erza, Lyon showed up out of nowhere to conquer Juvia's heart. So Lyon left the guild, with the screaming Juvia. Then Erza heard someone screaming like a maniac.

"Did you hear something?" Erza asked. Gray shrugged.

"Want another?" Erza asked. Gray nodded slowly.

"Okay, say 'Aah'." she said. Gray opened his mouth and ate the riceball, still blushing.

Erza suddenly said, ''Now it's your turn to feed me."

Gray almost choked on the riceball. He could feel the burning sensation coming to his cheeks.

"Y-you want me to feed you?" Gray asked in confusion. Erza nodded.

"Okay" he muttered.

Gray took the spoon with a riceball. "S-say 'Ahh'." he stuttered.

Erza ate the riceball and savored the flavor. "Another please." Erza slightly demanded.

"Say 'Ahh'." Gray said.

Erza obeyed, she smiled from the deliciousness of the riceball.

"Damn, why does she have to be so cute?!" he thought.

They kept on feeding each other with a smile on their faces, but they stopped when they heard chuckling behind the counter. Gray looked to see who was it, he saw Mira who was doing thumbs-up for Gray and Cana who covering her mouth to keep her laughter down.

He facepalmed, "How embarrasing."
