It was Halloween and so the two private boarding schools had decided to join together to celebrate the scary occasion, Natsu's all boys' school with Lucy's all-girls school. It wasn't very often these events happened but when they did you could count on most of them getting out of hand, the girls would end up screaming in tears and sometimes fainting from all the cute, adorable guys around them. One in particular, a bluenette by the name of Juvia Lobster had been crying, screaming and following cute guys around all night.
Lucy and Erza had managed to contain themselves, mainly because Erza was far too shy to approach the drummer of the band that was playing tonight, Jellal Fernandes.
"H-He probably won't ever notice me" the scarlet haired beauty moaned, her heart ached from the thought of being rejected
"Well you don't know until you try" Lucy winked with a smile and nudged her friend closer to the blue haired teen
It was already rather late; Gray's band had been playing for almost two hours now. They were just getting ready to sing their last song. Lucy decided to leave Erza with Jellal, they seemed as though they were getting along and the tattoo faced teen was rather confident which allowed Erza to feel more relaxed.
The blonde went in search for her other friend, Natsu. She hadn't seen him all night, she thought he would be at the front of the stage with all the frantic girls, drooling and screaming at Gray but no.
Lucy looked to her left; there at the far end of the hall was her pink haired friend with another lad. Well not any lad in fact Natsu was with her crush, Laxus. The blonde watched the two for a moment noticing Natsu looking rather upset.
"You know Gray's just playing you right?" Laxus rested his hand on the wall so he was over towering the pinknette
"P-Playing me?" Natsu stuttered not really understanding what Laxus was telling him
"Yeah playing you, meaning his just using you to make Sting jealous" Laxus explained
Natsu frowned slightly, looking up at the blonde
"Y-You're lying, G-Gray wouldn't do that"
"He does it all the time, trust me….look over there" Laxus shifted his eyes towards the stage
Natsu followed the blondes gaze; he wasn't sure what he was looking at.
"See how he flirts with Lyon, touching him, laughing, whispering in his ear" Laxus pointed out
Natsu bit his lip lightly as he saw Gray doing what Laxus was describing; the ice mage had his arm around Lyon, smiling as they finished their last song.
"T-There just f-f-friends" Natsu stuttered
"Alright dragon boy, you carry on lying to yourself but you'll only be left broken hearted, don't say I didn't warn you"
"Natsu?" Lucy slowly approached the two boys; she could see her friend was close to tears
The pinknette snapped his head around, as she thought Natsu's green eyes were filling with tears.
"Are you alright, what's wrong?" she asked, her words rushed
Natsu turned his head a little more too where Gray was stood with Lyon, the pair side by side with girls surrounding them. The slayer raced off before his tears could escape his eyes, Lucy looked at Laxus for an explanation but none was given. The blonde just simply walked away, going back stage to where the rest of the band members were heading.
The slayer raced through the halls, not sure where he was going or what he was doing. He sniffed and wiped his cheeks as he slowed down, his breathless gasps echoing through the thin walls.
Maybe this is my punishment, for what happened with Loke and now I'm going to lose Gray to Lyon, what should I do? What should I do? I don't want to be alone; I don't want to lose the person I love the most? This pain hurts so badly, I can't stand it, I just want Gray
Natsu's mind was filled with worrying thoughts; he didn't notice Sting walking behind him. The blonde was walking with Laxus, a smirk across his face. It wasn't too hard to manipulate the innocent dragon slayer; he was clueless about love which meant Sting could play his cruel games.
"Flame brains" he called
Natsu slowly turned, seeing both Laxus and Sting. The pinknette looked confused as he looked at the two; his moist lips trembled slightly as he tried to make words. Laxus paused from walking, his arms crossed as Sting slowly approached the slayer, a cruel look in his stormy blue eyes.
"Don't you dare touch him!" Gray yelled from the other end of the corridor
Sting turned seeing the ice mage approaching them quickly, Natsu wiped his saw red eyes. He sniffed as he stood back a little from Sting.
"I wasn't goi-"
Before the blonde could finish his sentence Gray had pinned him up against one of the wall, the ice mages dark blue eyes filled with rage.
"You lay a hand on him I'll fucking kill you" he warned
Sting smirked knowing the pinknette was Gray's new weakness
"I was just going to have some fun with him"
Gray's hand wrapped around the blondes throat, "I fucking mean it Sting, you don't touch him!"
"I love it when you get all rough like this Gray" Sting leaned forward bringing his lips closer to the ice mages
"I'm no longer yours Sting understand that, I will never want you again, ever" Gray frowned as he spoke through gritted teeth
The ice mage slowly realized the slayer, the blonde brushed down his clothes not looking at all affected from Gray's outburst. Natsu stood shaking not sure what to do with himself, he hated conflict but it was nice seeing Gray protecting him.
The ice mage walked towards Natsu, his cold hands cupping the slayers flustered cheeks. Gray wiped the last few falling tears away from Natsu's eyes as he brought his head forward.
"I'm sorry you had to see that" he whispered
Natsu's eyes widened as he looked into Gray's now clamed blue ones. He wrapped his arms around Gray's waist pulling lightly on the teen's shirt.
I love you so much Gray, can you tell me you love me to, please. Say it right here now, in front of Sting so he knows that what we have is real, please just….speak them words to me
"Come on" Gray smiled, snapping Natsu out of thought
The ice mage slowly turned the pinknette around his arm resting over the teens shoulders, the two walked away, leaving Sting scouring.
"You alright man?" Laxus asked seeing how pissed the blonde was
"Yeah perfectly fine" he replied, his voice low "Like I said before if I can't have Gray no one should"
"His made it pretty clear his not interested anymore how are you going to make him want you again?" Laxus asked confused
"I'm not going to make him want me, I'm going to destroy the person he chose over me" he replied with a smirk.
