Chapter 14:
Natsu, Gray and Fantasia (Part I)
Gray left the magazine building after Gildarts, the evil mastermind of perverts, told him that he can flee. Gray Fullbuster was silent after the last photo shoot thinking of ways that could kill him with no pain after he had given Natsu that… That… fucking kiss on the shoulder. What the hell was he thinking about when he did such a very disgusting act?
… Alright. It wasn't so disgusting, in fact, the thought of his upper body touching Natsu's brought shivers to his spine, and some other places that he would rather NOT mention. How smooth the other's skin felt. How firm, and great lord! How hot it burned! Gray kicked that rock in the way in utter frustration and went to meet Mirajane whom he had promised that he'll surrender himself and be the subject of her experiment. And by the way, he knew it could end badly, but once you do a deal with Mirajane, it's impossible to break free. That's a rule.
When he entered the guild, he was well aware of how her eyes twinkled with happiness and how her sadistic twisted side was getting larger and larger, and for a minute, he asked himself, WHY?! Why did he have to agree to anything that woman says? It's not like she dropped a spell on him and he simply fell for it? Isn't that right?
Damn.
"Gray… You showed up! You don't know how happy I am feeling right at this moment!" It was sick and sweet at the same time.
"I think I have a pretty damn good idea…"
She smiled shrugging and clapped her hands. "Let's go! I'm super excited."
"Hey, if I want to call this deal off, can I still do it while I have the chance?" He pleaded.
"It cannot be done, Gray Fullbuster." For a minute… just for a minute, he thought that he saw the devilish eyes of Mirajane's transformation followed by a sweet, innocent, and oblivious smile.
"Why are you saying it like that? It's like the evil witch from any damn horror tale."
"You made a deal with me, remember?" She said not-so-patient, but she was still smiling.
"Fine, I think I value my life you demon!"
Mirajane dismissed the insult and took Gray to the back garden where a chair was placed and a small table near it having all the tools that Mirajane needed for doing a haircut or skinning a chicken for that matter, depending on your perspective.
"Can you at least promise that I will have a great Funeral after my execution?!" Gray snorted thinking that Mirajane would make him a prison haircut.
Mirajane's eyebrows twitched mainly because she was sick from smiling and from Gray's offensive comments which made her want to slap him across the face, so damn hard.
"Gray, if you didn't stop insulting my great mighty abilities, I promise I'll make you 'Magnolia's hottest chicken ass' so be good and let me take care of this. I am a professional."
Gray rolled his eyes and sat in the chair. "Might as well take off my eyebrows while we're at it."
"LAST WARNING!" She yelled while holding the scissors in a threatening way.
"OK, FINE! WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GET THOSE BIG SCISSORS FROM?!"
"Lucy's cancer gave it to me. It's like a charm for good luck. Isn't that sweet?"
"And you're going to use it on me?!"
"No Gray, I'm gonna use it on the ducks swimming in that pond." She answered sarcastically.
"Why are you being so cranky today?" Gray asked amused.
"BECAUSE… Oh god, it's because I am nervous. If this doesn't work out, then I'll have to say adios to my professional career as a hair stylist, and this guild will suffer from the terrible style our mages possess. Who are we? We're Fairy Tail for goodness sakes, we should look the best in town!" She said pouting with lips slightly quivering. Like everyone in Fairy Tail needed her. If anything, they'd go to cancer for that subject.
Ok, what the hell?! He kissed Natsu's shoulder, might as well boost some devil's super ego.
"Listen, there is no reason to be scared of anything. I'm sure you will do a fantastic job."
"Then stop pushing my buttons and let me do my thing!"
"Fine. No more complaints. Just do what you got to do."
Mirajane's shoulders relaxed and she nodded while beginning her task. She stood looking at his face's frame for a while deciding on which technique to use, then she had an idea, and Gray knew this because he saw the sudden light bulb that appeared on her head. He sighed, girls. Cute, but can be very overwhelming, and he learned that the hard way.
She began her work, and he suddenly was thinking back about what happened earlier with Natsu. Seriously, he never saw his 'friend' that way before, and Natsu's body being the best eye-candy for him didn't help either, but at least now, he will admit that he has feelings for his 'friend'. It was less torture for him.
He closed his eyes at the feeling of Mirajane's gentle hands going through his hair and almost leaned into her touch.
"Comfy?" She giggled.
"I would be lying if I said no."
She smiled and continued work. "So Gray, a little birdie told me that you have feelings for someone, is that true?"
Gray's eyes widened then gritted his teeth. "Does that 'Birdie' have brown hair?"
"Umm. Yes."
"Does he go out on more dates than all of the male population of Magnolia?"
"Kinda. If you put it that way."
"And the final question, 'Birdie' is a slut, isn't he?"
"Oh Gray, that's no way to talk about a precious friend."
"You know what? There is nothing called 'Confidential' in this screwed up guild. Anyone wants to know anything, they just know it."
Mirajane smiled while beginning to cut small strands of his hair. "I want you to know that, just because you're attracted to another male, doesn't mean I change the way I feel about you. In fact, I might turn out to be just like your magazine fans."
"And I assume you know this 'Male' from 'Birdie'."
"You bet I do. Nothing hides from me. I have everyone's dirty little secret in my possession."
"That creeps the shit out of me."
"You know Gray, I always thought that you had a thing for Natsu."
"WHY THE HELL IS THAT?!" He almost wanted to disappear from the earth.
"Dunno. I mean, when you guys were little, your focus has always been on your rivalry or call it whatever you want. You never paid that much attention to stronger wizards in our guild as much as you do with each other, and now… well, minus the fights and all the horror that follows, I think you two care for each other more as a team and close friends, however way you try to hide it. Also, you two never got real girlfriends, well, if we excluded you because now you're dating Juvia-"
"I broke up with her yesterday, thank you very much."
"-There you go. What I want to say… it's not a surprise that you have these feelings for him. And no one in our guild will judge you for it."
Gray sighed and leaned backwards relaxing his back on the chair and rubbing his forehead. "It's a nightmare. I got caught in a very big mess."
She laughed. "Why do you think like that? I saw your photo shoots together and I think you two make a hot sexy pair. It's the second hottest thing in our guild."
"Hmm, what's the first?"
"Erza because that's a rule she has reinforced across the years, nothing is hot more than Erza."
"Yeah right, she and her freaky armor."
"Don't say much, or she will haunt your soul. Anyway, I am confused. Why didn't you tell him anything until now?"
Gray shrugged. "Why are you confused?"
"Because it's always straight forward when it comes to your relationship with him. You never hide anything from him, bad or good."
Gray huffed. "Yeah, well, that's not exactly something I would like to say so bluntly to him. And I will never do it."
"That's a shame. Why not?"
"Mira… It's not simple, alright? Natsu doesn't understand many things and this is the worst of them. He doesn't know anything about straight relationships, do you think he will know any about not-so-straight ones? Moreover, I don't think he can accept me for that position, if anyone, it would be Lisanna and their creepy pledge to marry each other from when they were… oh forgot, six years old maybe."
"It's not creepy, it's sweet." She objected.
"Not so sweet to me. It's creepy when you don't know that you are giving up your whole life for someone who suggested the idea. In what universe does a girl ask a boy to marry her?! Creepy. THAT'S not the point, but anyhow, I am not telling him anything and you better not because I don't want to jeopardize this friendship more than it already is."
"What happened?"
Gray had a small blush on his cheeks and he scratched the side of his face nervously. "Nothing, except the fact that I had to screw everything up and kiss him on the shoulder during this evil-plot magazine shooting session."
Mirajane froze then squealed a high pitched squeal. "Wow! Just imagining it! YOU! What's wrong with that?"
"Nothing wrong except for the awkwardness that followed!"
She smacked him on the head. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"
"Gray, Natsu didn't kill you after that, did he?"
"No."
"Didn't punch your face or kick your ass either, right?"
"No."
"Doesn't that tell you anything?"
"Ahhh… he's planning to do so, he just hasn't found the worst way of doing it, yet. You know how his mind functions. Typical dumbass."
Mirajane rolled her eyes and mouthed the word 'Whatever' for herself ignoring Gray's twisted interpretation of the whole thing. Since when did Natsu let go of something if Gray was the culprit?
"No silly. I think you might have a chance with Natsu if you came clean with him."
Gray closed his eyes and enjoyed the breeze that stroked his body. It was fucking hot and he couldn't take his shirt off because Mirajane with working with him.
"Please, let's not talk about this anymore." He whispered.
She smiled and resumed working. "The Fantasia is approaching real soon."
"Oh already? Man, time moves real fast."
She shrugged. "Well, master wanted it early for this year. He wanted to compensate you all for your suffering and pain since we came back from Tenroujima and after the last competition here as well. Isn't he so kind?"
"I guess."
"I'm looking forward to your beautiful ice-creation magic display this year."
Gray's face was blank for a moment, then he smiled sadly looking at the blue sky. "Mira… I don't think I will participate."
"How come?! You always participate!" She was shocked and temporarily stopped working.
"I don't know. I would like to travel if I got the chance to have a decent holiday. You know, just clearing up my mind and everything."
"But Gray… That's a very important occasion. You can't just walk out without a really good excuse."
Gray looked at her and smiled. "Well then, I need a favor from you whether you screwed up or not."
Sadly, she looked down. "I suppose there is no way I could change your stubborn mind?"
"Nope."
"Alright then, I will see what I can do."
"Thanks a lot." He smiled appreciating her help.
She shook her head then leaned down and kissed him on the cheek a very warm kiss, earning a huge blush from him. "What's that for?!"
"Gray, I just want you to know, that you can't run away from Natsu forever." And then she hugged him close.
He laughed while resisting the stinging feeling in his eyes. "At least I am trying my best."
"Alright! All done. Now look at yourself and tell me that I screwed up straight in the eye, Great Fullbuster-Kun." Mirajane said proud of her work.
Gray shook his head and went to see himself in front of the mirror… when he gasped.
His face was no longer covered by thick bangs as they were shorter in length barely touching his eyebrows. The spikes in the middle were shorter as the rest of his whole hair which shrank in size, but set up in a very sharp looking way. Basically, Mirajane made his hair very short with less bangs and spikes, but with a very interesting front which emphasized his face and mostly his eyes more. He had a very simple haircut, but because of the dramatic change, he looked a lot more different and vibrant.
"I… I don't know what to say." He touched his hair and smiled.
"Say it." She playfully threatened.
"You're the best Mirajane. Thank. You." He rolled his eyes.
"See? That wasn't so hard. I bet you are Magnolia's hottest prince now!"
He snorted. "I don't care. But thanks for changing something about me."
She hugged him out of the blue, then pulled back. "You know… we women do have a thing for haircuts when we are in a tumultuous relationship. Some dye their hair or cut it just because they want to increase their self confidence or… Change their lives for the better."
"It's gonna take a lot more than that to change mine." He joked and wiped away imaginary dust off his jeans.
"I know. I just wanted to tell you that."
He smiled and kissed her cheek this time as she giggled. "Ooooh, what was THAT for?"
"Just a small thank you for your great job."
"You don't seem excited about it though."
"Sorry Mira, I just have a lot on my mind."
"Understandable, but I promise, you'll soon forget that when you're out there and everyone wants a bite!"
He laughed. Boy, how Mirajane always seems to make his day brighter.
Next, Gray headed for the same restaurant that he visited almost a week ago. As promised he sat down with the rest of the seven guys who looked so excited to know his and Natsu's relationship update, in addition to his new 'Look'.
"Don't tell me Fullbuster. I know. You look like a girl who fell out of love, and therefore, I think you broke up with Juvia and decided to forget about Natsu which is by the way, very painful." Said Mr. Wise Ass, Hibiki Lates, whom Gray wanted to murder right now.
"Thanks for the enlightenment. I suggest you shut up next time." Gray glared at him and the blonde shrugged. It was just his nature to make things as dramatic as possible all the time.
"Most welcome."
Lyon and the others were laughing or snickering and Gray could use a sledge hammer to knock them all out and be responsible for their pathetic deaths. Which reminds him…
"Hello Birdie." He wrapped his arm around Loke's shoulder, the brown-haired boy whose sweat dropped with a nervous look on his face because he got the feeling that Gray wasn't trying to bond with him more than he wanted to simply 'kick his ass'.
"Can't we put this behind us? I swear I had honest intentions." Loke gulped.
"You know what? We have an audience here, but I suggest you watch your back my dear friend when we are out of here in this cruel world where you can eat or be eaten."
"Knock it off Gray. I have a date tonight. I want to be able to perform because, unlike you, I have a sex life."
Gray almost punched him in the face, but controlled himself and saved that for later.
"Guys, cool down. Gray, will you tell us what happened, please?" Jellal respectfully questioned the furious blue-eyed boy who released Loke and crossed his arms on top of his puffed out chest.
"Shit was what happened."
Lyon rolled his eyes and tried to question Gray further. "I never thought I'd say something like this and sound like a girl one day, but please, can you give more details? Your statement is completely vague."
Gray resisted the urge to kick the chair that Lyon was sitting on, and cleared his throat. "I broke up with Juvia after we tried to have sex yesterday."
Silence dominated the table in the restaurant. Meredy and Ultear stood in their positions dumbfounded and Hibiki had a huge sweat drop falling over his head.
"That's the fastest relationship's break up I've ever witnessed in my whole twenty seven years of life." Hibiki stated.
"You… You… YOU TRIED TO HAVE SEX WITH JUVIA-CHAN?!" Lyon was, needless to say, astonished and angry at the same time. How he fantasized about himself and Juvia all the time and now his idiot of a brother says that SHIT happened? Gray clearly was out of his mind and Lyon simply wanted to punch his brother so hard for the mere thought of him touching his precious Juvia-chan.
Gray groaned. "Oh please, can't you raise your voice? I can't hear you."
"ENOUGH! You tell me now what happened or I'll punch the words out of you!"
Jellal looked half shocked as well. "Yeah Gray. Do it, or I will do the same as he says."
"As I said, shit happened. Before we got to move to the third base, I stopped our actions and of course she questioned why and that's when I realized I didn't really… Fuck. I didn't want to do anything with her when I clearly… liked someone else. There? All of you happy? It's because of your nice advice, I am so okay right now."
Jellal looked at him along with the others with a look that was between 'What the hell? Are you an idiot?!' and 'Poor pathetic guy' Look and Gray didn't like any. In fact, he wanted to get out and leave all of them, but because he was a friend to them, he tolerated and gave that waitress a glare that indicated 'Stop raping me with your eyes please.'
Lyon sighed. "So that's it? My brother is a homosexual?"
"Quite a shocking fact, huh?" Gray hissed, "I assure you that I like women's elements of beauty and appreciate it very much. It's just that… that… oh don't mind, why am I talking to you about this anyway? I am not going to do anything about it so don't worry much."
"You mean you're not gonna tell him?" Sally, the magazine editor who was sitting the entire time quite, finally voiced out his concern.
"No. I am sick of saying this more than one time, but anyway. First, he won't understand in a million years what I feel for him, and second it's because if we were to be together, which is highly and I say, HIGHLY far from happening, I do not know how men do 'It' and I wouldn't want to figure that out, thank you very much. It's worse enough the way things are."
Jellal put on a thoughtful face at first before he looked to Loke who grinned evilly and looked at Hibiki who nodded. Gray, unfortunately was sitting down in total peace and he seemed to not realize how his 'friends' was planning something… despicable. He trusted them, but looks like he was about to stop doing that now.
He didn't process the speed that Hibiki moved with until he realized that the dark blonde boy was standing behind him with a very happy smile. "Open your mind for me Gray because you're about to find out more about the human body~"
Gray's gaze was forward and he didn't realize what Hibiki meant until it was far too late. Too damn late.
"NO STO-"
"-Relax, this will be quick and easy."
Gray's whole body froze to the ground by Lyon who didn't risk Gray moving from his place and Jellal looked amused while Loke muffled his giggles.
"Lyon. Don't do this. Let me go!" Gray pleaded as sweat was forming on his face from the horror when he sensed Hibiki's fingers hovering above his head.
"No can do brother. This is for your own good."
"YOU BASTARD!"
"It'll be over in seconds, Gray." Hibiki thought that he was soothing Gray's anxiety, however, it only seemed to increase the rage the other was feeling.
Suddenly Gray's eyes were bright golden as a small magic circle was formed around him from Hibiki who was focusing on the other's head. Hibiki was transferring information to Gray's brain about everything he needed to know, in other words, how men do 'IT'. Hibiki's skills of information transfer had progressed across the years and that's why it took only a few 'Seconds' which was what he exactly promised to Gray who sits speechless for a while looking ahead to no one in particular.
"And that will be all." Hibiki said clapping his hands to remove imaginary dust and goes to sit down between Ren and Eve who thanked him for doing such an amazing job.
They all looked to the bamboozled black-haired boy whose mouth hung open and eyes were wide in utter shock.
"Ok… that's another reason to add on top of the list." He said with a cracked voice as he looked at them all, "BECAUSE NO WAY IN HELL I AM GONNA DO THAT!"
They all were drowned in heavy sadistic laughter except for Sally who sympathized. Knowing suddenly how sex was done between two males can be something overwhelming and scary even. Gray Fullbuster wasn't ready for it from Sally's point of view, but if he really liked a man once, then the possibility of that happening again is not slim and he had to know what he was getting himself into.
Hibiki Lates, had shamelessly transferred to him everything. From the beginning to the end with various techniques and ways of having 'Fun' that Gray certainly didn't think they existed between males in this universe and he was trying to come up with the best way to murder the damn walking 'everything-you-need-to-know' encyclopedia.
"Oh little brother, it's not a big deal. Now, you can go tell Natsu."
"THE FUCK?!"
"We know that your pride was forbidding you from telling him because you didn't know how it was done, but now that you know, you can go with all your self-confidence and tell him how you feel about him and hope that you will have sex with him one day."
Gray couldn't believe his insane brother. "I am NOT going to tell him anything and stay away from me. ALL OF YOU! I can't believe how menacingly sadistic you all are! Thanks to you, I think I might've been traumatized!"
"Oh please, you now know how incredibly pleasurable that can be." Hibiki shook his head in disbelief. Seriously, Gray Fullbuster was just another moron in this world who did not see the beauty of sex between men.
"YOU! SHUT UP AND STAY AWAY FROM ME!"
Hibiki smiled sweetly and muffled his laugh. "Sure thing. I don't need to be near you anymore."
"By the way, I heard the Fantasia is going to be held after tomorrow, Gray." Loke changed the subject, trying to calm down the air.
"… Damn right."
"Aren't you looking forward to it?" Loke was surprised from Gray's tone. Gray always gets excited over something like that, but now, he was being ridiculous and dull about it.
"I am not attending this year. Think I am going to be out of town for a while." Gray shrugged, still trying to clear his brain from what Hibiki had infected him with.
"Why the hell is that?! This is nonsense!" Loke was surprised.
"Nope. I am trying to clear my head over the weekend and set things straight."
"Define 'Set things straight'." Lyon inquired.
"Nothing. Hopefully I will find a magical bad-ass pond that will make me forget all about Natsu and what you jerks injected in my innocent mind."
Loke didn't find that funny. In fact, he was very mad. Gray always acted as a vital member when it came to events, especially the Fantasia event, so he didn't speak and cursed silently. That matter with Natsu was seriously going too far.
"So I believe this will be my goodbye to you all since I don't think we will be seeing each other anytime soon." Gray spoke to Hibiki, Jellal and Lyon who wanted to knock some sense into his brother's stubborn mind.
Jellal sighed. "We tried everything we could to help you, Gray. I think it's now up to you to take your own decisions that might or might not be the optimum solution for you. We just want you to know, that we don't think less of you for liking a man. He's a human, and you're a human and that's what really matters. We all wish you good luck."
Gray stood up and nodded to all of them who either smiled or scowled at his stubbornness.
"We shall meet again." He said to them all and exited the restaurant, but before he completely disappears-
"ICE-MAKE! HAMMER!"
He destroyed that fucking restaurant.
"That's for messing with my head you idiots!"
Gray Fullbuster was on his way home. He wanted to gather his stuff (which wasn't a lot) but he preferred to get prepared mentally for this. It pained him that he'll leave his comrades at such a beautiful event, but at the same time, he couldn't imagine himself being there and acting all happy and satisfied. No. he couldn't. He needed some time alone so that he could change some air, meet new people even if they were clients, and mostly forget what has been going on in his life the past almost two months. He also remembered that he'll have to notify Gildarts about this the day after, but he was pretty sure that even if Gildarts said 'NO' he'll just run away. Gildarts couldn't say no. The issue of the magazine has been completed, therefore, Gray could have his holiday.
He sighed and ran his hand furiously between his hair's (now short) locks and took his keys to prepare them for opening the house's door, only to be surprised by seeing Natsu sitting on his doorsteps. Gray instantly became nervous and sweat was forming, either because it was hot or because he was simply nervous, he couldn't tell.
"What a pleasant surprise." He tried to act as carefree as possible, "What brings you here?"
Natsu stood slowly and Gray assumed that the idiot was checking him out because of his new appearance judging by the wide eyes and speechless mouth. "I don't have all the day."
Natsu cleared his throat and tried to look neutral. "Ah… Nice… haircut you got there." And pointed to it emphasizing his point.
"Thanks. But I don't believe you came all that way to tell me that. Is there something wrong?"
"No, I just think I left something important at your home… and was coming to get it back."
"Ok, fine, let's get this over with." Gray said going to open the door and entered, turning on the lights.
"Ah… Did you hear?! Mirajane said Jii-chan is planning on having the Fantasia the day after tomorrow." Natsu tried to get Gray to talk to him.
"Yes, I heard."
"Cool, isn't it? Are you going to practice what you will be doing then?"
"No, Natsu. I will be out of town."
"That is sarcasm… right?"
"No. I WILL be out of town. Seriously."
Natsu stood in his place… Frozen to the ground, still trying to process what he has just heard. Gray not attending Fantasia? That's like pigs flying!
"Are you seriously serious?"
"Yeah." Gray said looking for Natsu's strange item.
"Gray, you can't do that!"
"And why not?"
"Because… Because we always attended that together with our friends. It won't be the same if someone like you is missing."
Gray grunted, stopped looking for Natsu's thing and looked at the other with a serious face.
"So what now? You suddenly care?" He kind of snapped too.
"I don't give a shit about you. I just think it'll be awkward. Why aren't you coming anyway?"
"Because I don't have to explain myself to you. I am just going to be out of town. Away from all of your stupidity. Heavens."
Natsu put his hands in his pockets and thought about it for a while while staring at Gray who stared back challenging to the other. "So this… Is happening because of me?"
"Pretty much, yes."
"Why? Did I do something wrong?"
"Ahh, no. Your existence for me is enough."
"Asshole. For once give me a straight answer. Is it because of what happened in the magazine building earlier? Why did you say you were sorry?"
Gray huffed. "Aren't you going to find this thing and get out?"
"Answer me." Natsu rarely gets serious. And rarely doesn't punch Gray when he wants an answer, and Gray thought that it was really weird.
"Listen, Natsu. Believe it or not, you don't have anything to do with me being away from that event. I decided that on my own, and… I have no regrets. I just don't want to attend this year, just like Gildarts always ditches the whole thing and many other members too. Why am I making so much difference anyway? Forget it alright?"
"You still didn't answer me, Gray."
"Answer what?"
"Why did you apologize to me earlier?"
"…" Gray found nothing to say. "I have nothing to say. Forget it if you want."
"Gray, what happened to us?" Natsu suddenly asked walking a few steps closer to his friend.
"What do you mean?"
"Us. Me and you. I can't talk to you without you lying to me and you know it. And you can't talk to me without seeing me as a stupid being. Before, we reached a decent level of understanding, but now… it's like there is a huge rift between us and I don't like it. I hate it so very much. If you have something that you want to tell me about, then you should. I don't want this rift to grow further."
For a minute there, Gray thought he should tell Natsu about everything and forget about the consequences, but something in his gut whined even if those green eyes looked at him urging him to relieve their master for good.
"As I said. I have nothing to say. You're delusional and I promise, when I get back from this trip, maybe everything will be better and back to where it was supposed to be if it bothers you so much."
Natsu eyes looked beyond hurt and it pained Gray, but he just couldn't tell Natsu anything. There was something holding him back with tight ropes.
"Ok, fine. If you want to act that way, then fine, but I want you to know one thing before you leave…" Natsu said and slowly got closer to the other. "I will miss you."
He closed the gap between their bodies and hugged Gray as tightly and as warmly as he could, trying to convey all sorts of feelings through the hug which managed to take out Gray's heart and make it run for thousands of miles. Natsu's body was just… too hot.
"Goodbye, Gray." Natsu said pulling away and going to the exit.
"WAIT… Uh… the.. the th-th-"
"I didn't forget anything in your home. I made that up. Hurry up and go to your heaven, bastard."
… Chapter Ends….
