Natsu pov:

I wanted to kill him. Throwing me into the water like he did. I knew i had it coming with a remark like that, still he didn't have to go that far. Actually i was kinda glad I was able to cool my head a bit. Walking behind him with his ass hanging out. I could feel a strange sensation in my stomach. It just kept creeping lower to a place I really didn't want it to be. Hoping Gajeel didn't remember that kissing from earlier. I decided to play dumb. I couldn't say anything, I refused to acknowledge what happened. I just prayed it wouldn't start up again. I Had never done that before. Not with anyone. And i was NOT about to start with him of all people. Still, the feeling of his lips.. that hair was so soft... stop it natsu!

Once I hit the water those thoughts cleared. I was a bit flustered by my now see through soaked boxers. I felt Gajeel staring at me with real intensity. I could smell it all over him. That arousal was so sweet, so mouth watering. Shit. I don't want to get up now... not good. Not good! I was so angry now at not being able to stop my own reactions to him. My lower half twitched to life a little. No! You better stay down! feeling so stupid for mentally shouting at my own penis, I heard that famous GIHI as an immediate headache started to pulse. I knew he could also scent my growing issue. "Fuck you! " I told him as I sat up, splashing water on him purposefully. "Why dont you take a little dip too! " I walked away to sit next to Wendy. She was still sleeping peacefully and very deeply. I was a little worried. " Dont be, she used a buncha magic trying to heal us both." Gajeel spoke softly but his voice still crackled with amusement. He had decided after all to get into the water as well. Soaking himself down throwing his head under and coming back up. I didn't realise i said that out loud.. "What are ya talking about? Your not loud at all , you woulda woken the girl by now if you were." He seemed confused.

I was shocked I KNOW I didnt say anything that time. A growing feeling of unease was forming inside me. To test my theory.. I tried again. Focusing hard that I just used my thoughts not my mouth. Metalhead is an idiot.. Gajeel spun around quickly water splashing all around him. It streamed from his long black hair trailing lines on his chest. "The hell you say? You tryina pick a fight again or what?" He was pissed. However he quickly realised it to. With the look of pure horror on my face. I heard him as clear as could be.. Fuck! What now? No way could this be happening. First fighting, then lust and now what?... a damn mind link? To top that crap off the attraction toward him was increasing at a pace I really hated. " This isn't good... Hey Iron lover you feel it?" I needed to know if I wasn't alone in this. As if to answer my question his erection grew. "Damn it!" He yelled frustrated. "We need to get away from Wendy." I was terrified now that it would be round two of whatever the hell was happening with us. She didn't need to be anywhere near us. He was right. I stood up and bolted away from her. I heard him following behind me. I really didn't want to go too far from her in case she could use that light again and calm us down. I ran far enough that I could still smell her scent faintly.

I stopped in some sort of clearing, there were trees tightly woven together preventing me from going any further. One large tan rock stood off to the side leaning up against a tree. It was a perfect spot to sit and relax. Grinning i made my way over. Gajeel beat me to it sitting down hard and giving me a small humph in response. One eye was open as he leaned back getting comfortable. A smirk played on his lips as he saw me pout. "You ass! Move it" No way I got here first. I heard his voice say. "Whatever you were following me!" We both grimaced. Feeling uneasy with the intrusion on our thoughts. Growling i sat on the ground as far from him as i could. We were both still wet, thankfully Igneel's scarf remained dry. I held it up to my nose inhaiiling as much as i could. It was so precious to me because it was the only material thing Igneel had even given me. He claimed that he had crafted it himself and he had taught me how to make a few things in a similar way. I always wore it close to me. Even after all this time it still held his familiar scent. I was begining to think he knew even then that he was going to leave. That's why he infused his magic into it, to forever retain his essence. As I caught myself drifting in thought I remembered Gajeel could probably hear everything. I didn't want anyone to know about that. Glancing at him he seemed to be sleeping. I couldnt hear anything from him othan than gentle breathing.

Once i looked at him, I regreted it. Each piercing on his face was shining from the sun. They reflected against each breath he took. His hair sticking to his cheek still wet. The rest hung over his shoulders in a wet clump. Looking at him like this I could easily see how handsome he actually was without that huge iron wall he always had built up around him. Regardless of him always acting tough and distant. I knew he was really kind, the he truly did come to care for his friends in the guild like family. I hoped that included me. I used to see him as an older brother, until recently. When things started to go beyond my control. I was surprised that women kept their distance. If they knew him inside they'd all probably like him a lot. No! Mine... he belongs to me! that menacing voice intruded again. SHUT UP LEAVE ME ALONE!

I Clutched my hands to my ears as if that would help. I didn't want this to keep happening. What the hell was going on with me. When would this stop? I wanted to go home. To fight like I always did. To laugh and smile and forget this feeling. It tore me apart not being able to control my body at all. Almost killing Gajeel.. wanting to... just to touch him , to make him mine. I couldn't understand. I wanted so badly for him to kiss me again. More than anything. My body began pulsing with that intense heat again. Feeling so close to him but incredibly far away. My heart ached and I didn't know why! Stop it! STOP IT! STOP IT! The heat only grew stronger as I heard his voice in my head. I looked up at him but he was still the same as he had been. Eyes closed. Keep it down over there would ya.. his tone was softer than I'd ever heard it. It annoyed the hell out of me how much i liked it. I used my magic to cover my body with burning flames trying to block out everything I felt. I clenched my eyes shut. I wasn't going to look at him anymore. I never heard him approach. "If you want it to stop, I'll take care of it for ya. Just shut up." he spoke aloud and inside my head. My eyes shot open again when I felt him pull my head back, grabbing my hair roughly. He kissed me with his soft lips. My flames not affecting him at all.
