Amber stops and turns to look back. The hairs on the back of her neck stand up and she felt a cold chill. There was nothing there she could see, but that doesn't mean there was something there. It has been going on for last three weeks and everything time it has happen it gave her a sick feeling. Right now Gray was doing a day time scene and she was in the back working on her laptop. Her crutches were done with and she felt free again to move around. Having Gray carrying her things for her around felt weird. It's like their roles had shifted, now that she was able to walk again normally. The keys had yet to be in her hand, he wouldn't give them up after seeing the doctor. Wendy had given her a name of a local Doctor she could go see. They went to same medical school and the women was a few years older then Wendy, but she was still very helpful and knowledgeable. Today she will have appointment with Mira to listen to the baby's heartbeat for the first time. It will be a challenge to see if Gray will be able to accompany her on a break that will be at the time she has to leave. As bad as it is, not bothering to tell him about it probably wasn't a good idea. Then again not having anyone knowing to why he was coming with her and not raise questions. When he does find out, he will be mad. Wanting to be at each stage he said so himself.
"OK lets take a small break everyone. It's going to be a long day and this stunt has to be done before we lose the sun. Time is ticking, lets complete it and move on." Sting was working on the first chapter of the script and writing the second installment of the next movie. Gray and the other actors will be back for the sequel. When they are done finishing the first movie, they will have a short break and dive right on in with the second.
Stretching his muscles the scene was insane there was a lot of actions between the talking. Natsu was surprising Gray of how well he can act. They may be the same age but a few months apart, but the newcomer had skills.
"Good work Natsu, you are keeping up the pace with each take."
"Thanks man, you too. Do you always do your own fight scene."
"My brother and I train when we were younger in martial arts. I am enjoying every moment of this. What about you?"
"Same here my older brother Zeref and I fought all time. My parents had enough of it in roll us into a local judo class. We still spar once and awhile."
"Having these skills comes in handy."
"Sure does, man. Right now I could use a cold one. Been dying for a drink."
"A drink would be great. Feels like a work out."
Sting provided everyone a table of food and drinks. He didn't want anyone to get dehydrated or miss out on eating. They make their way over to the table. The display they see has assortment of water and flavored, pop, juice. Gray picks up some water and Natsu was already downing his.
Unscrewing the cap he looks over to Amber. Busy tapping away on a document, with her cell close to her ear being held up by her shoulder. Sharing a hotel room wasn't bad. Get up first thing in the morning to make breakfast. She would get up to take a shower and be dressed at the table. If morning sickness occurs he will rub her back gently, stay in the bathroom with her until it was over. There were a few days she couldn't keep anything down. That worried him and today is a day like that.
"Hey, Gray do you want to hang out tonight after we are done here."
"First we have to get through our scenes. Make sure there is few retakes."
They continue to talk some more before Sting calls them back. Amber puts down her cell and finished her sentence. Checking her watch it was right at 1:00 pm. "If I could have energy drink or I'll be falling asleep here. Didn't have a rest yet today and my eyes feel heavy. I wonder if I can get a small coffee without him finding out." Looking at her phone there was no way she could get that coffee. The appointment was coming up and she has to let him know now, she needed the keys.
"I hope this goes over well?"
Tidying up her things from the table and not leaving this stuff behind. Knew everyone here pretty much and there was no way anyone would steal her things. They where far from home there could be replacement workers to the regular ones that were incapable to come.
Securely everything in her hands, she walks on over to Gray. Greets some of the crew as they cross paths. Natsu waves to her and lets him know that she is almost there.
"Amber is coming, I am going to make up chair."
"Thanks, tell Laura I'll be there soon too."
"Well do buddy."
He turns around before she approaches. It was a warm day for September and perhaps one of the last few days of good weather before it turns to fall. Wearing a casual red and white business suite like usual had him wondering if she will continue to wear them through out the 9 months.
"Sorry if I am interrupting your conversation with Natsu."
"It's all good. What is it?"
"I need to leave for a bit, can you hand me the keys."
"Something came up?"
"Uhhh yeah, I will not be long."
"Where do you need to go? The break isn't over yet."
"Small matter, you are working and can't really go anywhere. I am free to move here or there, like always."
It was if she was purposely not telling him where she is going. At times he didn't need to know because it was related to his job. Now that he was understanding her more compare to before, she was hiding something from him.
"Small matter as in...? Moving his hand wanting her to relay the correct answer for him to hear. It will depend if he was truly going to give up the keys.
"I will tell you when I get back, the keys Gray."
Sting started yelling out for everyone to return. Gray had no time to press it further and get more details. Had to trust her telling him later when she returns from who knows where. "They are in coat pocket on my chair over there."
"Thanks!"
"You will tell me?"
"Of course I will, keep focus on what you are doing ok."
"Amber I can talk to Sting to see if he can extend the break. You haven't really eaten anything and what the doctor has inform being anemic."
"I know, don't worry. Keep your mind on what you have to do. This is work Gray, let me handle this."
"Not when half of me is in you." A hand covers his mouth to silent him, she looks around to see if anyone heard him.
"Can't get the word out Gray." Removes her hand from his mouth and holds on to it. He gets a little closer to her.
"I have acted for years and I can concentrate will on my task. With the way you have been feeling it does involve me."
"I have told you how I am each day and during when you ask. I am good at the moment. I got to go."
"Gray! Come over please, we need to shoot don't want to lose the sun." Sting wasn't a impatience man, there was a time table to keep track to.
"I will be there!"
"Bye Gray."
"Amber, if anything..."
"I am not fragile, I have told you so before and dealt with plenty in my life. Having a baby is something new to me and you. I am not going to let your career suffer because of it. Now, make movie magic."
Letting go of her hand had her already walking over to his chair and taking the keys from his coat pocket. When she comes back he will find out what she was up too. She waves at him, then heads for the entrance. The car was by his trailer it will be few minutes until she gets there.
"You know staring at her is good, but making a move is better."
"What?" Gray turns to see that Lucy was beside him, with her arms folded. She will be appearing in the scene next.
"Come on now, you two in that tightly embrace I saw weeks ago."
"That was because of her ankle."
"Really, from what I saw..."
"Lucy there is nothing."
"Not yet." Rolling his eyes at her. He starts walking away as she talks some more.
"I think it will be great Gray!"
"Enough Lucy, get ready for your scene."
Lucy has been watching the two lately. There was something going on between them, but there was no moves being made or sexual advances from Gray. Right now she will be a witness and maybe, just maybe push them closer together. What she saw that day in that small room had her grinning. Amber looked right at home in his arms, she thought they would make a perfect couple. Even if each party doesn't see it.
Being in Mira's doctor office didn't have her waiting long. There were a few ladies that saw her first, but they were short visits. Amber was waiting for her to come into the room. Sitting in the chair had her reading the same magazine she pick up from the table and bringing it with her. It was tabloid magazine and looking through it to see if there were any fake articles in it. Knowing who she sees and talks too all the pages where untrue. Sometimes they do get it right.
The door opens and Mira comes in, holding out her hand towards her. "Amber glad to meet you again. It has been a few days."
"Yeah, Wendy said I could do this now. Instead of waiting for when I go home."
"Where is Gray, is he out in the waiting room?"
"No working. There was no way he could break free. I didn't have the guts to tell him."
"Oh dear. It will be exciting to hear the heartbeat."
"I feel bad that I didn't tell him. There are other times right, this is not the one and only chance he gets."
"There will be others. It is the first time though."
"I do have my phone and thought maybe I can do a recording?"
"Good idea. Shall we start? Can I get you to jump up on the bed."
Getting on the medical bed and uplifting her shirt. Mira measures around her stomach first with a normal tape measurement. Types in the inches into the computer. There was small bottle of thicken jelly, when she puts it on Amber, she gives a little yelp. "That is cold."
"Sorry, this will happen again a few times in your pregnancy."
"Well keep that in mind."
"Now lets find that heartbeat." Beside the keyboard there was a doppler. The doctor picks it up and turns it on. Placing it on her stomach she moves it to different areas finding the heartbeat was a challenged.
"Don't worry Amber I will find it, right now the baby should be right about here." Moving the doppler down lower on her stomach. She lay still ready to record the heartbeat, if the baby is ready to show off. Watching where she is scanning made her stop breathing.
"I think I found it." Moving it to the right a beat could be heard through the monitor. Tears were welling up in her eyes. This was the most amazing thing she has ever heard in her life. Letting out the air in her lungs, knowing that there is a new special person inside her. Made it all the more real and she fill in love with the baby that much more.
"Wow, Mira the heart beat is fast?"
"Uh huh and strong too. That's a very good thing. By the way I can tell you are having one, but once you have your first ultrasound picture we will know for sure."
"Is there a change for twins?"
"It's possible, aren't you suppose to be recording."
"Dang it I put the phone down." Picking it back up and pushing the record button. Amber ask for silence that a clear recording can be made. Mira keep the baby monitor there for a bit, until the sound went away.
"What happen?" Pushed the stop button and laid the phone back down.
"Nothing, the baby moved."
"It did?"
"Yeah right now it's swimming. You could be able to feel it, some women can. In a month or two will be feeling the first kick."
Smiling at Mira and having her handing her a tissue for her eyes. It was a joy to know that soon the next stage will start. All the books she has been reading doesn't compare to the actual thing. The jelly gets clean off and her shirt gets readjusted.
"When you get back make sure that Gray hears it too."
"I will, or I might send it to him. That would be surprise."
"From what you both have told me from the first time we met. He seams really committed to this."
"He needs a heir and being a playboy doesn't offer that to him. It's a logical assumption to go this route"
"The two of you will be great parents for this kid. Maybe this will slow that playboy down."
"Slow down Gray...No. I can't see that happening. He enjoys his lifestyle a baby probably will not change him."
"Time will tell." Mira was a little matchmaker outside of being a doctor. She never got her patients together. Just dear friends she has known and grown up with. Hearing the backstory from Wendy on Amber. How a man did horrible things to her, she could wish for love to come to this young women. "Now that we have done this, we will discuss other things before you go."
"Alright."
A other two hours goes by at the location. Sting finally yelled cut for the scene of Gray, Natsu and Lucy. "Prefect, that was great you guys. It was great timing as well. The sun has gone behind the mountain. We will be setting for a night time filming. This will be our last clip here before moving to a different place tomorrow. Get some rest now in your trailers and I will send you a text for when we ready. Good work!"
The three of them all high five each other for a job will done. "That was awesome guys, can't wait for what is coming next." Natsu pump his fist into the air. All of them were enthralled with the movie and each of them where giving it their all.
"I going to go see my Manger. Erza is working in my trailer, and I think I saw Laxus somewhere Natsu."
"He is over there talking to one of the extra police officers for that small clip." All three of them moved away so the area can be clean up by the crew. Their actor chairs where in line with one other. Gray wanted to sit down for a moment and check his phone. In between takes he was looking for Amber in the back. She hasn't come back yet.
"Well you too. I am heading to see Erza, catch you later."
"Bye Lucy!" The men said at the same time. Natsu was eyeing the food table and wanted to grab a plate to fill it up.
"Hey man, want food?"
"Not yet, go ahead." He then started running over to the table, almost causing a few people to jump out of his way. Some of them swore at him and told him to slow down. Gray could hear him yelling back at them as well.
"What a guy. Now where is she, has to be back by now." He leaves his chair go in search of his manger.
Having stop once before parking beside his trailer. Amber got out of SUV, it felt good to be behind the wheel. Missing the need to drive and not have someone drive her. Getting her purse and her briefcase she heads to see where he is at.
Walking past crew, extras, Sting and Laxus. Everyone greeted her warmly and she didn't stop to talk to anyone. Her goal was to see Gray and to get him to listen to her phone. Hoping it will not take to long to find him.
Stopping to look to see if she could spot him anywhere. It didn't take long for him to find her instead. Crunching of the grass alerted her to someone coming from behind. Turning her head slightly and see his tall frame in her vision. "There you are Gray. How did it go?"
"Where were you?"
"I was at a place."
"What place?"
"Well ummm." She was getting a little hesitate to tell him. What response will he have finding out she did this alone with out him.
"The last time you did something like this you went to the clinic on your own. Please tell me you didn't have appointment that I wasn't inform of"
Gulps hard having a hard time to swallow what was nothing in her throat. Realizing this could turn bad. "Hehehe."
"Nervous laughter?"
"What noooo." Didn't realize she did it and giggled again, she covers her mouth. Gray takes her hand from her mouth and looks serious at her.
"What did you do?"
Reaching into her side pocket of her purse and pulling out the phone. Opening up the app on the cell she looks at him. "I have something you need to listen too."
"Okay?"
Making sure no one was in ear shot of what she is about to play. With her finger she taps the replay. Holds the phone up closer to his ear. His head goes sideways to hear it better. Hearing the rhythm of the beats he wasn't to sure what he was hearing.
"Amber what is it? They are going to fast." Wasn't it not clear enough for him to hear it. Maybe her cell was to old.
"Really you can't tell what it is?
"To fast are the beats."
"Listen to it again but have your eyes closed, it may help." Shutting his eyes, and having the cell closer to his ear. She replays it a second time. The sounds of the beats and what they represent had his mind going. Looking at his face to be able to tell when he realizes what he is hearing for the first time. Her own heart was beating in her own ears, having him find out.
Then his eyes snap open and faces changes to one that wasn't happy at all. Takes the phone from her and grabs a hand. Starts walking towards his trailer. The feeling she was receiving was unsettling. This was a mistake of not having him come with her. "Gray let go."
"No way. Where are the keys?"
"In my purse."
"Give them to me now!" With her other hand she reaches into a inside pocket and takes them out. Gray hears them jingle in her hand. His other hand he reaches behind to have her place them into his palm. He puts them into his front pocket. They walk right up to the side door of his trailer. Opening it up with out letting go of her hand, and making sure she gets in first.
The space inside was huge, could fit a small family. He had couch, t.v, a chair. There were two rotating chairs in the front. So the driver could turn around to come into the back after putting the trailer into park. There was a full bathroom, lots of cupboard space for food and everything else. The bedroom was in the back that had a queen size bed. There was a other bed, the couch pulled out into one.
The living room was were she was standing in when he slams his door shut and locks it. "Gray... please."
"How could you. This is the second time you have left me out." His fist hits the counter and it makes her jump back.
"Don't get mad."
"Mad, how should I be Amber." She takes a few steps back as he comes closer to her. Tears were falling from her eyes.
"You were filming and I didn't want that to interfere with you."
He holds up her phone. "This is more important then a scene. Why!"
"I like I said you need to pay attention. We don't want people to know Gray." She wipes the tears with her jacket.
"I miss out. I had that slip away from me. You tell me when you have appointment dammit."
"Sorry...I didn't mean for it go like this. Sorry sorry. It will not happen again. Don't get mad, don't hit me."
Gray looks at her and can see she becoming that fear mouse again. "Crap Amber. I will never hurt you." Takes a few steps closer to her and she turns to go hide in the bathroom.
"Oh no Amber. You aren't hiding from me." Her phone gets thrown on the couch and he grabs a arm and turns her around to look at him. "I will never raise my hand to you. I am angry at you for spoiling the first time for me. I am not DAN!"
She cries harder and he wraps his arms around her. Lays her head on his chest. "Sorry sorry sorry." Her brief case and purse get drop to the floor.
"Shhh you don't need the stress." Rubs her back to calm her down. "It's my baby too Amber. No more solo appointments."
It takes awhile to still her sobs and her tears were drying on her face. "Truly sorry Gray." A last hiccup she did before wanting out of his hold. Pushing on his chest wasn't getting her away from him. She looks up at him. His hand touches her cheek and whips the last tear.
"I know you are." He rubs her cheek with his thumb. The light in her eyes dim a little and he wanted to see them bright again. His eyes travels down to her lips. There was a tear that dip across her lips. His thumb brushed it away touching her lips. They where soft and would they be soft if his lips touch them too.
Wanting to find out, his head starts to lower to capture her lips. Amber heard a knock on his trailer door and a women's voice. "Gray, Juvia is here to see you. Juvia had some time off came for a visit." Hearing her voice snap him out of what he was about to do again.
"You have a visitor Gray. A proper surprise for you today." His arms lets go of her and he holds up a hand. "Wait right there."
Going over to the door he opens it up to see Juvia. "Juvia your here, thought you couldn't make it?"
"Juvia begged Zeref to let me come. Now I am here, can I come in."
"Hold on a second OK. I don't have to work right now until later. Can go somewhere" Shines a charming smile in her direction. Juvia in turn licks her lips in a lustful way.
"Juvia is ready."
"Can you wait right here and I'll come out?"
"Sure, Juvia will plant her feet."
Gray closes the door and locks it. Takes the cell from the couch and walks over to her. Points for her to head in the back. Giving him a look that said why, it would be best to leave the trailer so they could do who knows what. Lucky for his neighbours it was soundproof to hear any sexual tenancy going on.
"I have night time scene here later. We will be at our next location tomorrow."
"I will let your get some rest. Juvia should know as well."
"I am find for later. I will be heading out with her for supper. You are going to stay here."
"What? Gray I have never stayed in your trailer. I can go back to the hotel. If you hand me the keys..." He shook his finger in front of her. "Well I can take a taxi."
"Lay down."
"Gray?"
"Lay down." Taking off her shoes she lays down the bed. With his hand he tells her to move over. Not to sure what is going on, she scoots over a little. He lies down beside her and props up his head.
Seeing her phone in his hand, he lays it down on her stomach. The apps comes back up on the screen. Looking at him then back at her phone, the recording starts again. "I am still mad, that I miss this in the doc office. I can hear clearly now, that is the baby."
"Mira said that we can hear it again."
"Good. I will be there." He looks right into her eyes. "Right?"
"Yes, for sure."
Listening to the 30 second recording a few times. Had Juvia start to knocking on the door. "Gray, Juvia is still waiting."
"Like said, this is more important. Juvia is the girl I have a notch on my belt for now. This little one is in my life forever." Amber puts a hand on her stomach, right beside her phone. The heartbeats stop as it ends the recording. This was a very special moment for her where no one should bear witness too.
His hand moves her phone out a way. There was a blanket on the other side of her. Reaching for it, he lays it on her right up to her waist. Looking at her stomach he wanted to touch it. The need was there, but he wasn't to sure he could do it. It was the same way the first other times too. He retracts his hand a few times to his side. The hand moves again to wanting to lay it on her stomach. It goes on top of her hand instead.
What shock him next it was Amber moving her hand from underneath from his, laying it on top of his hand. He looks at her, she is smiling at him. "Amber?"
"Your hand move 7 times. I could tell you wanted to place it down on me. You couldn't?
"I have for awhile not to sure if you would have let me."
"My fear of being touched?"
"Yes, the baby is so small. Wanting to be close."
"Gray, Sorry. I can't...I.."
"I get it. Thanks for letting me now, if it can't happen when you are showing."
Juvia was now calling out to him and knocking again this time a little louder. Having a girl wait for that long anyone would get upset. "I will leave, so you can have Juvia in here." Siting up in bed had Gray push her down on her shoulder.
"You haven't had your nap yet today. Most days when we had a longer break we go to the hotel. Stay here to rest, no need to head back."
"Gray, I can take at taxi."
"Nah, this is better. I want you here."
He rubs her stomach with his hand. "I want both of you here." Moves his eyes from his hand to travel to look at hers.
"I'll stay, not liking it though."
"Oh well, not letting you of my sight in case you hide something from me again."
"Gray, I will not do that anymore."
"I am sorry if I scared you."
Tears were falling down again remembering his tone. "It's just that, your voice."
"Shhhh see voice normal, no more shouting. I have to go before Juvia breaks the door." He pulls the blanket up to her shoulders.
"I will have my cell."
"I doubt I will call. If I did, it will be for you to get back to work. Also be careful, with doing whatever you are doing with her."
"There is this place not to far from here where..."
"La la la la." Covers her ears.
He laughs seeing her react this way. Never has she let him finished speaking of his sex play adventures. "Poor sport."
Getting up from his bed and she removes her hands from her ears feeling the movement of him leaving. "Make sure you eat something."
"Gut can't handle it."
"Try." He bends and puts a hand by her head.
"Bye Gray."
"Thank you for the heartbeats. Send me a copy."
"Will do." He wanted to feel her stomach one more time before going. Thought it was best to head out.
"Later." Moves in inches of her head. "Stay here."
Saluting him with her hand. "Yes sir." He kisses her forehead and walks away from her. That was the first time he has ever done that. Wasn't to sure what made him do it. Though he was close to kissing her earlier. The thought of what Lucy said earlier grazed his mind.
"Not going to happen."
Opening up the door to his trailer he steps out. Amber gets on her knees and looks out of a window. He was walking hand and hand with Juvia and getting into the SUV. "He is weird." Her hand goes over top to were he kissed her forehead. The suv goes out of her sight and she lays back down. Not wanting to really stay in the trailer. It wasn't her place, this was his. This was first as well laying on the bed.
"I hope the sheets are at lest clean from whom ever he had has in here last." She did see him talking it up to a pretty brunette a few days ago. Can't remember the actress name, not fairly well known. She was playing a extra in one of the clips.
Snuggling back down into the bed. Told herself to rest her eyes only for a few minutes then leave to go back to work. As soon as she close her eyes, she was asleep. The day carried on until late evening where everyone was back on set.
The sun had already gone down by the time Amber came out of the trailer. The nap rejuvenate her energy a little, but was still feeling tried. Trying to eat didn't pave off either, the smells makes her nauseous. The plate that was in her hand went back to where she got it.
Coming back with Juvia to the set had the reporters snapping pictures when they enter. Juvia smiled and wave her hand. The time with Gray was different, he wasn't paying much attention to her. When they went to a place they wanted to do it in. It was the only time he wasn't in the moment. Making her cum with his fingers, rubbing her clit and putting fingers into her. Spreading her legs open for him to enter her. Kissing, touching and sucking on her breasts. The sensations were electrifying. They had a few rounds before eating out of supper. Then having a call from Sting to come back.
Juvia couldn't stay for to much longer. Zeref was there talking to Natsu when they walk in to see that the crew had changed everything up. Lucy was reading her lines, Amber was at the table sitting down and talking to Laxus.
He was remembering and still hearing the heartbeats in his ear. A text still had to come through of the heartbeats. Wanting to save it to his phone to hear it when he likes. As Sting started to get everyone ready for more takes. Gray said goodbye to Juvia. A day off was coming for him, then a longer break was up for when they go back home for a week. That wasn't for other two or three weeks. Sting wanted to get as much done before the cooler weather was going to hit. Cedar had lots of rain this time of year. It shouldn't hurt the shoot, if the taping called for rain. It was those dry days he needed. The script did have them acting in the snow.
After talking to Laxus for a time had drain all of her energy. The man wanted some advance on a fight he had with Freed. When she told him the story, she listen. Gave her option to what he should do. While they were talking, Amber was getting the feeling again of someone was watching. Not able to pinpoint where it was coming from set iciness down her spine.
Shaking her body had Laxus question her. "Cold?"
"No, something is off."
"Like what?"
"I don't know. It's a strange feeling. I am not going to worry about it."
"Want help?"
"I don't think so. It's me being paranoid."
"Paranoid, to what?"
"Seams to me I am being watched. From where, I have no clue. I look and I see people, not the one that makes the hair of my neck stand up."
"That is a little bit concerning." Laxus eyes around and he too didn't see anything out of the norm. Everyone was busy working, no one was looking at them.
"Maybe it's because I am expecting. Sensing others around me, like a higher ability."
"There is nothing off to me. It could be all you."
"As soon as it comes it goes away."
"Weird." His cell started ringing and looking at the id it was Freed. "It's him again, calling for fourth time. I have take it."
"Do so and talk to him. Instead of hanging up."
"I will take what you said under consideration."
"Please do. I am going to grab some water."
"I can get it for you?"
"Need to move for a bit. I been finding that my leg will fall asleep."
"Talk to later." He waves as he goes off to answer his phone.
Getting up from her chair she had to brace herself by holding onto the table. A sudden dizzy spell had her seeing double. Putting a hand on her forehead hoping that it will go away soon. Not eating or drinking anything today. Had it finally hit her, she felt so weak.
Dan was watching Amber from where he was at. Cobra had ask him to fix the light that was above her head, and to ask her to move. He had other plans wanting to scare her a little. His hand was on the rope to lower the light down. Light fixture was huge not a normal house light.
When he was working he would stare at Amber at for long periods. Imagine the plans he had in store for her. Wanting to silently cause her harm, get under her skin in his own way. Then when it felt right he would make his appearance. He had heard that she was having a baby. Not one for doing anything to a kid or baby. There were cousins in his family that had kids. Didn't mind them, but he didn't want anything to do with them. When he was in prison, he has seen what inmates do to someone who was a child predator. It wasn't pretty, they deserved what was coming to them.
Having heard that she was with child, he had to rethink his plans. Not caring for the life in her, he wanted to cause mental harm. It worked in the past, she was fearful. He didn't want to outright attack her, but do things here or there. Watching her stand by the table holding onto it. There was a plan forming. They were fixing some of the lights around the set. Cobra would bring them to Dan and he would change out the light or do some repair to it.
"Dan are you done yet got to move on to something else."
"Give me moment, undoing the knot."
"Did you at lest tell her to move so you could use the table." He wanted Dan to have a reunion with her. When he tells him to go see her, he will refuse. Why would he not want to see a past love or get back together with her. Not understanding why, he let it go for now.
"I got it undone lowering it now."
"Wait don't do that didn't you hear me."
"What did you say?" Dan turn and lets go of the rope.
"Do not let go of it! NO!" Cobra was reaching for the robe to pull it down, it was to late. He didn't make it, couldn't stop it.
At the same time Gray was laughing at Natsu joke. "That is a good one will have to tell my brother."
"I have a other one just as good. Two priest walk into a bar..."Natsu didn't get to finished telling the joke. From the corner of his eye. He sees Amber holding herself by the table and right above her the light was swinging. Then he hears someone shouting her name.
"Amber look out! Above you!" Lucy was making her way over to chat with Amber with Erza. Seeing her be unsteady from the table had her concern. When she saw the light moving and falling down. Yelled out her name.
Gray only sees this pink blur go past him. Turning to hear the shout to see Natsu sprinting towards Amber. Dropping the bottle that was in his hand he starts running too.
Everything went in slow motion. Looking up to see the light come straight down on her. Like a baby dear not able to move away from a car. Her heart starts pounding, she starts to scream out. Then she feels someone embrace her to go backwards and starts rolling on the ground. The light crashes and breaks the table along with her laptop.
"Amber!" Everyone that was near by was rushing over. She was on her side still being held by Natsu. Both of his arms were holding her securely.
"Amber are you ok?"
Her heart was still racing. "Let go of me please." Pushing on his chest to be freed.
"Sorry, did it to save you "
Gray makes it over and bends down to see if she is hurt anywhere. "Amber are you alright, let me get you up?" How can something like that happen. In all of his years of working there was no mishap.
A crowd started to form around the three. Lucy, Erza and Laxus come running too. "I am fine Gray, just startled. I can get up on my own." Gets on her knees and a pair of hands goes underneath her arms and lifts her up.
Standing and getting her balance still feeling dizzy. Almost going sideways a arm goes around her waist and pulls her into the persons body.
"Amber!"
Hearing his voice behind her, she knew it was Gray holding her. "I am okay." Looking back to where she was. Saw the destroyed table, her laptop and phone was in that pile too.
"Oh no, my phone, the recording." Trying to get freed from him, his strength was stronger.
"Wait got to check you out. Amber."
"Let me go. The phone Gray, my phone." Gray was holding her tightly as she was struggling. There were drops being felt on his arm. Looking down he sees blood, he looks at her head there was cut above her eyebrow.
"Amber, you are bleeding somewhere. You need to see someone."
She wasn't hearing a word he was saying. "I have to get my phone." Still struggling in his arms, he had to shift his stance and get her away from the table and the damage.
Not knowing how she was able to do it. Also not thinking about the state she was in. She was removing his arm from her waist. Took only a few steps forward before she collapses. Catches her before she hits the floor. "We need paramedics, NOW!" Gray says it loud enough for someone to run as fast as they can to the first aide station.
