Surprised or dissapointed, not the welcome I was hoping for - Chapter 8
Gray gathers all the strenghth he can muster and wipes out Bixlow solid, but in doing so he has no magic energy left. He struggles to walk but some how reaches Nina and collapses beside her. The two rest there in silence again until Gray begins "What you doing back in magnolia anyway, I thought you need space." In saying so he sits up on the floor and she follows.
"Are you serious! You think I wanted to leave all this behind." She shouts.
"Save your energy, you'll need it if you came to fight for Lucy and Erza." He says calmly.
"I left because of you," she says.
"Me, I didn't ask you to leave, you wouldn't even tell me what happened,"
"You never asked and you were so angry after I woke up. What was I meant to say?"
"You made your own choice to leave"
"I thought you would... " her cheeks become rosy red, she quickly turns away before he notices but is too late.
"I'm not great with apologies... Well I'm sorry for over reacting but I thought you were going to die and it felt like..." he says "..like my heart was being ripped out of my chest."
"Gray..." she mutters under her breath. Her heart pounding fiercely, she tries to resist the urge to kiss him but when he makes that face it makes her vulnerable, almost exposed.
His heart and body is telling him to lean in closer, but his mind disagrees, who should he listen to?
The their lips meet each other, first slightly touching then firmly pressed together. Soon after they pull apart immediately, they gaze into each others eyes, slightly resentful but also glad and happy they'd talked things through.
(To Alzack and Fried)
Alzack makes the first move but Fried defends himself easily, while putting up an enchantment in which if a wizard uses mgic they will be rid of oxygen. Resulting another victory for Fried.
(To the guild hall)
With only two people left in the battle Natsu decides to melt the rock of Erza to save her and surprisingly it works now with her the real battle has only just begun.
Sorry its quite short! 😄😅
