DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fairy Tail, I only own my OC.
CHAPTER TWO: CONFESSIONS
After going to the Council, Shiro arrived back at Fairy Tail. He decided he needed to talk to Master Makarov about his mission. So he headed over to his office. He knocked on the door, hearing a slight "Come in." Shiro opened the door as he walked into the Master's office.
"I'm assuming you're here to tell me about your mission that the Council gave you?" Master Makarov asked.
"Yes." Shiro replied. "I had to go undercover to get information on a dark guild called Horned Serpent. Along with another Council member, Noah. We took all of them out without a problem."
"I'm assuming that's not what's bothering you, though." Master Makarov stated.
Shiro sighed. "I've killed people, Master. It's something I'm not proud of. Innocent women and children were apart of that guild as well. I killed all of them." He said.
"You did what the Magic Council ordered you to, Shiro. You shouldn't blame yourself for their deaths." Master Makarov informed.
"Thanks, Master." Shiro said as he headed out of Makarov's office. He looked at all of his guild mates. His eyes landed on Gray. "However, I'm worried what he will think. Would he be disgusted with me that I killed innocent people? Would I remind him of Deliora?"
Gray noticed Shiro staring at him. "Shiro!" He said as he took his arm.
"Gray, where are we going?" Shiro asked.
"There's something I've been meaning to tell you. Though not here. Let's take a walk." Gray replied.
Shiro and Gray began walking through the streets of Magnolia. They finally stopped at Magnolia Southgate Park. "So, what is it that you wanted to tell me?" Shiro asked.
"Alright, here it goes..." Gray muttered to himself. "I've liked you ever since we were kids. Like, romantically. And I was wondering if uh, you wanted to go out with me? Like, be my boyfriend?"
"Gray, I've liked you too. But you know I can't... being a Ten Wizard Saint and on the Council. I'm practically never at the guild." Shiro replied.
Gray tried not to look hurt. "I understand, Shiro..." He said as he started to walk away.
"Hibiki and I work through it. You and Gray can too." Noah's words rang through Shiro's head. "Just think about it, okay?"
"Damn you, Noah. Always being right and shit..." Shiro thinks to himself. He caught up with Gray and grabbed his arm. He turned him around and kissed him, shocking Gray. "I-I thought you didn't-" Gray started to say.
"A friend of mine told me that I should give relationships a shot. I'm willing to give us a try." Shiro interrupted him. Gray smiled and kissed him again.
Shiro wrapped his arms around Gray and hugged him tightly. "I shouldn't let my Council duties stopping me from having a relationship. I love Gray and that's all that matters..."
Shiro appeared in front of the Blue Pegasus guild building. He entered the guild and took a look around. "Shiro! Are you looking for Noah?" Ren asked. Shiro nodded. "Is he around?"
"Yeah. He's by the bar." Ren replied. Shiro thanked Ren and tapped on Noah's shoulder. "Shiro-sama! What are you doing here?" Noah asked.
"Can't I visit my best friend?" Shiro asked.
"You must've come here for a reason..." Noah replied.
"Well, I just came by to tell you Gray and I are finally dating." Shiro said. Noah's eyes lit up at this news.
"That's great! I'm happy for you both!" Noah stated.
"Thanks. I hate how you're always right though." Shiro said, making Noah laugh.
"I'm sure you won't regret your decision, Shiro-sama." Noah informed. "Gray is a good guy for you. Plus, it's about time you finally get into relationships."
"You make me sound old. I'm only twenty-one." Shiro responded. "Still, I'm worried about his reaction when he finds out about what I've done... We've killed people. Innocent women and children on our mission, Noah."
"We were ordered to kill everyone, Shiro-sama. Remember?" Noah reminded him. "I'm sure he won't hate you for that."
Shiro sighed. "I feel like he'll compare me to Deliora. Or worse. He'll think I'm a monster. He wouldn't want to be someone who used their magic to kill innocent people, ordered or not."
"Deliora was a demon. You're not a demon, Shiro-sama. You weren't the one who killed his family. I'm sure he'll understand that you did what you had to do." Noah said.
"I guess you're right." Shiro finally agreed.
"You should get going back to Fairy Tail. Don't want to keep your new loverboy waiting." Noah said.
"I'm slowly starting to regret telling you now." Shiro stated. Noah chuckles at this.
Shiro said goodbye to Noah as he headed out of the Blue Pegasus guild, thinking about his new relationship with Gray. He was finally able to settle down and focus on himself and his relationship. Nothing could ruin it.
Oh how wrong he was.
Unaware to Shiro, a man with dark brown hair and green eyes looked at him. "Shiro Ryota... You'll pay for killing my family. I'll take away everything and everyone you love. Just like you did with me." The man thinks to himself, growling at the ice mage.
