Because we kissed does that mean that me and Gray are boyfriends now? No I don't think so…he hasn't asked me out…so what does the kiss mean? I should ask him, no that be silly...but now I'm confused, we kissed but were not together…what do you call that, friends? Friends with benefits…?

"Natsu" Loke nudged the slayer.

"Huh?" the pinknette turned to look at his friend.

"You've not listened to anything all day" Loke smiled, "What's wrong with you?" he asked.

"N-Nothing…" Natsu blushed.

Loke poked the teens cheek, "Seems like there is" he laughed.

"Don't do that" Natsu huffed and turned, he hadn't seen Gray all day and he was getting upset, he wanted to know if there was more to that kiss.

"Sorry" Loke apologised, trying to brush his hand on the pinknette's arm.

"D-Do you know where Gray is, his not been in lessons all day?" Natsu asked, he moved his arm slightly, he didn't understand why Loke always tried to touch him.

"Yeah, his got band practice, there performing at the Halloween party this weekend" Loke explained.

"Oh…" Natsu looked down.

Gray never mentioned anything about that to me; maybe the kiss wasn't as deep as I had hoped. If his with his band then that means his with Sting…

"Are you going to the party?" Loke asked.

Natsu looked up to the strawberry blonde teen; he caught his reflection in his blue shades. He looked pitiful, worry all over his face.

"I-I don't know, maybe" he mumbled.

"I think Lucy is going, both the schools are joining up and celebrating the night together" Loke smiled.

Natsu shrugged, Loke leant over again and placed his arm around the slayer. Natsu pulled back, falling off his chair as he did.

The bell sounded making Natsu jump from where he sat on the floor, Loke stood and offered him his hand, Natsu sighed and grabbed the outstretched arm. Loke pulled him up, bringing the slayer in to his arms, Natsu's face smacked straight into Loke's chest; he pulled away quickly and looked over Loke's shoulder to see Gray stood at the doorway watching the pair of them.

"G-Gray" Natsu smiled.

The ice wizard stared for a moment before walking off, Loke turned to see the raven head disappear.

"G…ray" Natsu called, not loud enough for anyone but himself to hear.

The slayer grabbed his bag and ran out the classroom; he looked down the hallway to see Gray melting into the crowd.

"Gray" he called, but his voice was muffled in the taller pupils around him.

Loke placed the fallen chair back and sighed; he lifted his bag over his shoulder and left the class. He watched Natsu chase the head boy, his heart twisted, causing his stomach to churn. He bit his lip and moved his shades further up his nose, he turned and walked the opposite way to the boy he loved.

Gray held his breathe as he pushed through the crowd, most pupils moved for him as they knew he was the head boy. He could feel burning tears rushing forward, they pleaded for freedom as he bit his lip.

Why am I getting so upset? It's clear now, he has Loke…of course he would already have someone; Natsu was cute and innocent why wouldn't he have someone who already loved him. I'm such a fool, to believe I could be his number one. His clearly already got happiness, he doesn't need my love.

Gray wiped his arm across his face as some tears escaped. He walked quickly up the field, ignoring people who called his name, he needed to be alone.

Natsu growled and pushed the people surrounding him.

"Move!" he yelled.

A gap formed for him, he raced through it and out of the wooden doors. He looked around; there were so many people already on the field. He lifted his head and smelt the air; his eyes shot to the right and saw Gray heading to the top of the field. He turned and quickly ran after him.

Stupid Loke! Stupid, stupid, stupid…

"G-Gray?" Natsu called quietly as he shifted through the long grass.

The field was huge, so big that the care taker Gajeel never got around to cutting the very back, so the end was always over grown.

Gray turned his head as he heard his name begin called, Natsu pushed the long grass to the side to see the ice mage sitting on the ground, his eyes slightly red.

"Natsu…"

"W-Why did you run away, I've not seen you all day…?" the slayer asked, walking further towards Gray.

"I thought I had interrupted you and your boyfriend"

"My boyfriend?" Natsu asked, a little confused.

"Yeah, you and Loke"

Natsu stared down at Gray and smiled, shaking his head.

"No, his not my boyfriend…ha-ha, were just friends" Natsu explained.

"Oh, then why were you hugging him?" Gray asked.

"I wasn't, he helped me up because I fell of my chair" Natsu smiled and sat down next to Gray.

"Sorry, it looked like you was…I suppose…I…"

"You what?" Natsu asked

I got jealous and wanted to hit Loke, don't say that…his going to think your needy…act cool

"I got it wrong" Gray smiled and leaned back on his hands.

"Oh…" Natsu looked at Gray who had his head up, facing the sky with his eyes closed.

"G-Gray?" Natsu mumbled, quietly.

"Hmm?"

"Y-You know the kiss you g-gave m-me…w-what did it m-mean?" Natsu stuttered.

Gray turned and looked at him; Natsu had his head down, his cheeks blushing.

It means I love you…

"What do you think it meant?" Gray asked.

"I-I don't k-know…I've n-never b-been k-kissed before" Natsu confessed.

Gray stared at the pinknette, his heart began racing as his mouth ran dry.

I took his first kiss away from him, shit!

"I'm sorry, I thought you had…I wouldn't have if I knew it was your first, you probably wanted to do it with someone that meant a lot to you and I just took it…"

"Y-You were t-the o-one I wanted to be k-kissed by" Natsu fiddled with the bottom of his shirt, his hands becoming clamming.

"I was?" Gray asked.

Natsu nodded his head slowly, still looking down.

Gray shifted forward, taking Natsu into his arms. The slayer's eyes widened before he settled into the ice mages arms, he nuzzled his head into Gray's chest. He didn't really understand what he had said to make the ice mage to act like this but it didn't matter, he was really happy, he was being held by Gray.

The ice mage closed his eyes and held Natsu close. The pair resting within each other's hold until the sun had come down, causing an orange glow to spread across the whole field.

"C-Cold..." Natsu shivered.

Gray moved slightly and smiled; he reached over and grabbed his coat. He wrapped it around the pinknette before helping him up.

"W-We missed t-tea" Natsu pointed out, his teeth shattering.

"It's fine, I can get you something to eat if you're hungry" Gray grabbed both their bags.

"You c-can?" Natsu asked, a little confused.

"Yeah, I'm head boy" Gray laughed and placed his arm around Natsu,

"M-thanks" Natsu smiled, resting his head on the ice mages shoulder.

I still don't know what the meaning behind the kiss was…I should really ask…but I'm scared to find out the truth…what if it was just a friendly kiss and me wanting more is just a dream that will never be a reality…I love Gray so much, I just wish I was brave enough to tell him…just kiss him passionately and declare my true feelings…Gray, I love you
