chapter 29
"I can't hold it anymore" the redhead wiped her tears from her cheeks. She was sitting in front of Mira on a table by herself and the white haired was standing next to her. "I feel like I'm going to explode" she crossed her arms. Mira stayed silent not knowing what does she mean and why did that happen?!
"Erza" she called catching the attention of the Titania. Erza looked at her trying to hold her tears. "What exactly happened to Natsu?" she asked hoping to get an answer. Erza stared at her not knowing what should she answer her, Natsu opened his heart to her a long ago and told her what was up with him. She didn't know if she said it, he may get angry because she spread his secret and in the same time, if he is going to travel again she thought that it doesn't matter to him. She even didn't know why did he decide to leave again all of sudden?! She looked down at the table hit it lightly with her nails.
"It's just.. Natsu is going to leave.. again" the demon's eyes widened from the shock of what she just heard.
"What? Why?" she asked surprised.
Erza paused as she rested her back on the chair still stretching her arm on the table looking at it. "Beats me" she answered.
"B-but, what is that all of sudden?! And, is that something.. bring tears in your eyes?" she asked tying to get a perfect answer.
Erza moved her bangs from her eyes bringing it back with the rest of her hair. "I-I was nervous and.. I didn't bear seeing him like that, he changed a lot from the Natsu we knew in the past" she stated resting his face on her palm. Mira sighed as she put her both hands around her own neck looking at the guild's roof. She looked again at the Titania.
"It must be your hormones" she looked at the redhead who was looking down at the table's hard wood. "You to take care of your baby, Erza" she grabbed her shoulder getting a nod as answer. She then released her and stood up looking down at her. "I will be talking to the master, and I will Lisanna to serve you something to cool down" she said leaving the Titania alone with her confused mind. Erza looked at the door that what it seemed she had waited for someone to come. Yes, she was waiting for the blue haired mage. He is the only one that she wanted right now. She wanted a warm hug from him and wanted to threw her heavy burden on him. That's right, she was still angry of what happened last time between him and what said about Natsu, but she can't help depending on him in these situation. While she was busy thinking of her husband who was gone in another mission, she snapped her head towards the person who sat next to her when she heard him sitting furiously in the chair.
"Gray, what's wrong with?! You are going to break the chair! And what are those.. plasters, is that from your job?" she yelled at him feeling surprised about his action. She heard him take a deep breath from the nose of his burying his hands in his pocket. She felt awkward around the black haired ice mage and how he was acting. "Gray, you fine?" asked the Titania. He stayed silent staring at the people in the guild.
"I broke up with Lucy" Erza's eyes widened as she looked at her childhood friend.
"What?!" she asked surprised. He looked at her to repeat what he was saying.
"I broke up with Lucy, I broke her heart" he stared at her face. "Correctly" he said pausing a little "she was the one who broke up with after I broke her heart"
"W-what do you mean?" Erza stood up looking at the ice mage. "I don't unders-" but before she could continue her sentence the black haired talked again.
"I.. cheated on her" he simply said earning more wide eyes from the Titania. "I didn't deserve her"
"I can't believe you, you are.." Erza stopped her from saying another thing as she put one hand on her waist and the other on her mouth making the other already realize that they were already fighting. "Is this some kind of joke?" Gray paused snarling his fingers together and resting his elbows on the table.
"She loved you, did you even love her back?" she asked but she got no answer but she believed she knew the real answer from the silence. She sighed looking at the other side of her, she glanced for a second at the black haired to see his injured face while he was looking down. "And, the plasters?"
"Natsu" her eyes widened from hearing her friend's name over and over again in a day like that.
"So, Natsu also saw you" he nodded slowly not realizing that the people were taking steps towards them to see what was the problem.
Erza looked at the bar then decided to talk. "That's great, everything is obvious now" she returned her eyes on her him as she looked at his hair. "I'm disappointed on you, Gray" and with that the redhead left him sitting in his place and left the place heading to the guild's door.
"Erza, your cake" Lisanna was holding a plate of cake and called to the redhead but it was too late because the redhead already left the place.
"Master, what happened to Natsu all of sudden?" Mira raised her arms in the air as she stood in front of master's office. "He has changed, and we don't know what's going in his mind" she looked at him as the depressed face was shown.
"I don't know either" he said looking at the desk. "It's kinda irritate me" he answered.
"But, you left him preparing for leaving again!"
"I can't stop him from doing something he wants to do"
