Chapter 15:
Natsu, Gray and Fantasia (Part II)
After Natsu had his little talk with Gray, he found himself going reluctantly to the guild. He didn't know how, but he could swear that whenever he's upset about something, he would always end up in front of the guild just absolutely dumbfounded. He sighed and pushed the doors open surprising the people inside because he hasn't kicked them as usual.
Mirajane was upset to see Natsu in that shape. All slumped in a chair with his face resting on a raised palm throwing a sad gaze on his usual drink in front of him while tapping his fingers slowly trying to figure out something that he can't.
"What's up, Natsu? What's wrong?"
He shook his head, not having the energy to talk just yet. He was tired. From everything, and if Gray Fullbuster wants to be an asshole, then Natsu won't stop him anymore.
"Bad day?" She asked trying to get him to open up.
His gaze finally met hers and stayed like that for a moment before he talks. "Gray is not attending the Fairy Festival."
"Yes, so I've heard."
"Well, I guess it's bothering me, a little."
"Oh, from what I can see, it's not a little."
"Whatever."He took his drink and a few sips then paid and got out again.
Gildarts called for an urgent meeting. It wasn't in the Magazine building, but at the guild. And the meeting didn't involve Natsu or Gray. Actually they didn't know such meeting existed.
Gildarts had reached out to his faithful spies abusing his authority of being the 'Imaginary' Master of Fairy Tail given by Makarov Dreyer who should've thought twice before giving this man that respectful name and honor. Gildarts… didn't really care as long as he could do selfish things like getting Laxus back to the guild and like what he was about to do now.
He hired the so called 'Spies' from Blue Pegasus (Hibiki), Crime Sorciere (Jellal), Lamia Scale (Lyon) and last but not least, the magazine editor, Sally Liam who wanted his REAL boss to be active again. Working under Gildarts had taken its toll and he wants out, but not before Gildarts is satisfied with the Magazine's ending.
Lucy and Erza were standing beside Gildarts the whole time having the honor to be his Faithful soldiers and partners in crime. Mirajane was invited to this meeting as well as Jesse from the magazine administration unit.
"Ok fellows, what do we have here?" Gildarts said it with such a smile that made the whole room sweat drop.
Lyon got to speak first, "Gray is a pain in the ass."
Then Jellal, "Exactly like he says."
Then Hibiki, "Yes, he is. Boy, you know your brother well."
And Mirajane, "I'd definitely go with that. Pain in the ass he is."
Gildarts took his feet off the huge table placed in the middle of the 'temporary' meeting room in the guild and stood up. "And why is that?"
"Because he is planning to leave the event you've set up." Loke said entering the room late, but having such a good idea about the topic. "Sorry I am late."
"Apology accepted. Now, what is this thing about him leaving?" Gildarts asked Loke who adjusted his tie and sunglasses before he speaks again.
"He is not planning on making any moves on Natsu and… Well, let's say he's stubborn as a rock."
Mirajane nodded. "Roger that. I saw the way he reacted when I asked him if he's gonna tell Natsu anything. He is certain that Natsu doesn't see him more than a friend."
Lucy snickered. "God, I didn't know Gray was THAT stubborn. He can't even see the truth in front of him anymore."
Gildarts huffed. "And did we make sure that Natsu is certain about his feelings?"
Jesse nodded feeling angry, "Damn right! He won't go out with me if I begged thousands of times. He's all done for that jackass Fullbuster."
Gildarts coughed, "I thought I told you Natsu was off limits."
"Yeah, I figured I could try! Not a single boy or girl refused me before!"
"…" Let's say Gildarts wasn't thrilled.
"Boss! I did what you asked! Gray is practically a great sex partner to any guy right now!" Hibiki sweetly said.
"NOT THAT ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN HEARING THIS!" Lyon almost destroyed the table from the strong bang on it.
Gildarts crossed his arms. "I trust you will not give Natsu the same treatment?" He directed his words to Hibiki.
"YEP! Leave it to me!" Hibiki said enthusiastically.
"We still have a problem though…" Erza hated to destroy this, but… "Gray is leaving. What should we do?"
"That Missy, I've thought about." Gildarts replied not feeling very good which of course, was noticed immediately.
"Boss, what's wrong? You sound troubled."
Gildarts rolled his sleeves up and angrily slammed his hands on the table causing it to be disassembled almost instantly. Lucy sweat dropped and patted the man on his back sympathizing. "I will tell you what's wrong…" Gildarts gritted his teeth then yelled, "I HAVE NEVER SEEN TWO MORONS LIKE THOSE IN MY LIFE! AFTER EVERYTHING I HAVE DONE FOR THEM THEY HAVE TO END UP BEING APART! WHY APART?! WHAT DID I EVER DO WRONG?!"
Erza stepped in. "Maybe because you manipulated them and played with their feelings all the way, and excuse me if I sound rude, but you are an awful matchmaker. Natsu and Gray are like… cats and water, the council and Fairy Tail, Flames and Ice, Ice-cream and pickles, water and electricity-"
"… I get it."
"-Sex and Alcohol, Natsu and Transportation, Gajeel and Transportation, Laxus and Transportation, elephants and mice, cats and dogs, Lions and deers, democrats and republicans in Magnolia, Peace and Quiet AND Magnolia, Fairy Tail and-"
"I GET THE DAMN PICTURE!" Gildarts shouted feeling desperate after hearing the long chain of 'things that do not go together' from Erza's fluent wise mouth.
"-What I want to say is, they just don't GO TOGETHER. If anything, they lead to destruction and your selfish fantasy of them being together is ruining them right now as their friendship is no longer strong as before all of this happened."
"EXCUSE ME! It's Lucy's fault for putting that idea in my head!"
Lucy's heart got shot by an arrow. "WHA… I Just wanted the money! OLD MAN, it's your problem for seeing them as MORE than just actors in the magazine!"
"What should I do? I became a fan quickly, so it's basically STILL your fault. A fan wanting to see them together is not a sin." Gildarts threw the responsibility of the current mess on Lucy's head.
"Look at that man!" Lucy LOOKED at that man with a disbelieving look.
"ANYWAY, Natsu likes Gray now, the same goes the other way around, and I think I should do something, since I stirred these sleeping lustful feelings inside both." Despite his current situation, the man didn't show regret.
"Bitch please, you literally injected my brother with them. If you weren't the so-called director of this magazine, everything would have gone perfectly smoothly." Lyon interjected feeling some sympathy for his brother AS IF he wasn't a part of the whole thing.
Erza shook her head. "I still don't understand. Even though they don't just GO TOGETHER, they clearly like each other. I believe our problem now is how are we supposed to get them together."
"Which sounds impossible." Jellal said feeling bad for the situation. "I think It's a very delicate matter."
Gildarts Clive breathed. "Listen people. I have a plan in mind. I will need all of your help. God knows I tried to leave this matter for both of the idiots to solve, and now they are going to pay the price and let me just do it for them. The day they made me sad is the day their miserable future is going to be planned by ME! Are we in this together or not?! BECAUSE I CAN DO THIS ALONE AND KILL THEM BY THESE TWO HANDS!"
Mirajane and the rest felt compassionate with Gildarts and they didn't want to see both Natsu and Gray strangled because of something they didn't do. Gildarts was beyond pissed and being the master of Fairy Tail… well, it didn't help anybody out.
"On with the damn plan! You guys-"
Gray had been standing dumbfounded after Natsu had already left. It has been almost an hour and he still couldn't believe what happened.
Why did Natsu…?
Gray slapped his forehead and went to the closet, angrily pulling out his clothes and shoving them into the backpack not wanting to question anything, any further. He has had enough.
One more night! Just one more night and he's out of this damn town because nothing made sense anymore.
Lucy saw Natsu sitting on a chair in the guild chatting happily with levy and Happy when she thought that he was supposed to be sulking because of Gray's foolish decision. However, that seemed to be not the case. He was running around and helping everyone with the preparations for the event.
"Good afternoon, Natsu."
"Lucy! Come here! Which is better, red or green?"
Lucy looked at the cards in Natsu's hands and helped him pick one. "Red, I guess."
"THANK YOU!" He stormed to where Levy was, helping her with the colored cards and Lucy was shocked. Either Natsu was really happy because of the event and Gray's decision is not affecting him, or Gray was actually staying.
"Hey… Natsu, is Gray here?"
"NO! Why?" She didn't sense any hesitation or tension in his voice.
"Ah, do you know where he is? I want to tell him something important."
"I haven't seen him today and don't bother searching for the bastard, he's travelling for the weekend." He smiled at Levy who told him to do a certain arrangement and complied.
"Ok…" So Gray wasn't staying, that is for sure.
Lucy went to talk to Mirajane who looked like she was monitoring Natsu the whole time. "Mira…"
"I know… He has been putting on this grin since the morning and I don't know what it means." Mirajane replied to the unvoiced question by Lucy who shrugged.
"How about Gray?"
"I don't know, the boys went to fetch him."
"ALRIGHT I AM FINISHED! I AM GOING OUT!" Natsu happily exclaimed.
"Wait just a second." Lucy stopped him. "Going out? Aren't you gonna stay? The parade begins pretty soon."
"That's not a problem, I am not intending to participate in the parade." Natsu shrugged, smiling.
"Natsu… WHY? I never heard about that!" She was surprised again.
Natsu's bangs covered his eyes and he smiled. "I just don't feel like it. I will see you guys later."
Lucy finally reached a conclusion. Natsu was, after all, affected by Gray's absence. Because not participating in the fairy festival is more or less like not being there. And if Gray wasn't going to be there, then so was Natsu and she almost punched Natsu because of his… foolishness.
"Um, Natsu. You are going to watch the parade right?" Lucy asked.
"Yes. I will try to be one of the audience this time, it sounds fun." He claimed with a small smile.
"Ooooh! You must dress up nicely then! I will come with you help you pick some decent clothes!"
"It's not really necess-"
"-AGREED! LET'S GO!"
Mirajane smiled waving goodbye to Lucy whose task will be so damn difficult.
Gray Fullbuster stood in the train station in front of a board looking at the available trips from Magnolia that demanded less time to wait, and he found one. He went with the procedure and sat waiting for the train crossing his legs, pissed off mainly because he was harassed all the way to the train station by excited girls who recognized him from the magazine.
That had been a nightmare. Gray vowed that as soon as he gets the chance, he is going to buy himself an incredible set of sunglasses and hats to help him disappear. Because even though his hair was different now, the females took forty five seconds (which takes a normal person forever) before they recognized his identity and drooled all over his new appearance.
Not that anyone can blame them. Gray's work with the magazine helped him in improving his style of choosing clothing articles and even get to put them on for a longer span of time than just taking them off. His muscular well-built chest was covered by V-neck light yellow shirt with three white horizontal stripes on the bottom, and he just put on faded gray jeans along with a long black opened coat and cream colored shoes. His necklace added the final touch and there you go, the Fullbuster chick-magnet was activated.
"Oh my, is he a model?"
"Funny, I think I've seen that young man somewhere before…"
"He's so cool! And beautiful and waaaah! I am falling in love!"
"Boy, a guy like that is completely out of your league."
"You bet. All the pretty ones are taken, that's for sure."
Whispers and murmurs surrounded him as he opened a book and tried to look busy reading because he wasn't ready for social interaction just yet. It was going to be worse if they found out that he was from that goddamn magazine.
"Passengers boarding to Stadarfell, please proceed to get on the train."
Gray closed the book with one hand and stood up burying his hands in his coat's pockets looking behind imagining all sorts of things that he's going to leave with a broken look.
"Last call, Passengers boarding to Stadarfell…"
He took his backpack and went to get on the train. Tickets were checked and he searched for his place to settle. When he sat down, the workers closed the train's doors and everything was set. He watched the window and how everything began to move slowly.
He was running away. He didn't like it because it left a bitter taste in his mouth, but he couldn't think of anything else to do after all that happened. Participating in the Fairy Festival would've been another burden for him as he was not in the mood. Right now, he just wanted to see Natsu. To feel him, to hug him, to laugh with him forgetting any rigid social conventions and just be himself. The problem wasn't with him, it was with the guy who Gray didn't know if he could feel any degree of affection towards Gray. Natsu had hugged him yes, but… what did that hug fucking mean?
The boy sighed and watched as the view of the green forests was displayed in front of him. Did he make the right decision? Will leaving everything and running away help him in forgetting something in just a week or a month? He didn't know anymore.
"Damn it." He said closing his eyes and feeling regret already searing through his bones. No, running away wasn't good. It's not going to solve anything.
He stood up and before he could walk two steps he bumped into someone.
"Hello there Gray. Looking good."
Gray looked at the person just for his eyes to widen in shock. "LYON? What… How…"
It wasn't just Lyon. It was Hibiki, Loke, and Jellal who was trying to hide judging by the sunglasses and hat.
"Have you come to your senses now?" Lyon asked and the other boys smirked. "Because we thought we'd wait for you to do that first."
Gray raised an eyebrow. "So what is this? Train abduction?"
"Pretty much. If you are planning on running from us… well, let's say you can't."
Gray's lips quivered and he laughed rubbing the back of his head. "The things you guys are willing to do. I thought you didn't accept me liking a man."
Lyon chuckled. "Well, let's face it. I don't like the gloomy you and besides, I thought things over, and I realized that it was your happiness that I want, not mine."
Gray stood speechless for a while.
"I hate to interrupt this moment of brotherly love, but guys! We have to get off of this train before we reach Gray's twisted choice of a cold destination!" Loke claimed smiling.
"Ok, give us a minute." Lyon replied, "Gray, don't screw this up. Be confident."
"I don't need those words from you." Gray sweat dropped and punched his brother's shoulder playfully.
"Ready?" Hibiki asked all of them.
"Ready."
Five Minutes Later…
"Just a silly question… How are we going to get off this fucking train? And how are we going to get back to Magnolia?!" Gray voiced his concern.
"Damn we were so busy watching you that we haven't thought about that." Jellal cursed.
"Oh what the heck! Just jump off! Come one, let's go!" Lyon took the lead and Gray rolled his eyes.
Natsu was feeling so very frustrated because of Lucy. She was all over his house searching for appropriate clothes for him to wear and he didn't even know why. He was certain that he wasn't in the mood to dress up 'Nicely'. In fact, he wanted this parade to be over quickly so that he can go home and find some quality time for himself.
"Lucy…"
"What do you think? This top or that one?"
"Lucy…"
"I think this one suits your hair and this one-"
"LUCY."
That caught her attention. "Please. Can you leave me alone? I can take care of myself." It wasn't his normal self to be pissed off from Lucy of all people, but everything felt overwhelming for him.
"Natsu, I understand that you're sad because Gray isn't here, but you can't stay like this forever. Today is a special day and it's enough that you are not participating in the festival."
Natsu's face scowled and he looked angry. "Don't mention his name in front of me. I don't know that jackass anymore! Now please leave me alone, I know how to dress myself!"
"But Nat-"
"-Please. That's enough."
Lucy couldn't do what she was told. Gildarts will have to forgive her. Her friendship with Natsu was far more important than the old man's orders now.
"Alright. I am going."
"Thank you." He said as he took from her the clothing pieces.
He watched her as she got out of the house before collapsing onto the bed on his back looking at the ceiling of his room. Too much. Everything seemed to be too much for him.
His eyes felt heavy and before he knew it, he was dozing off with clothes all around him. Somewhere before he completely fell in the hands of darkness, he saw Gray's laid back personality peering at him and smirking within his foggy imagination.
"MY GOD, that's not going to work!" Gray said rubbing his hands together.
"Are you having second thoughts about this? 'Cause I will kick your ass if you don't do it." Loke warned.
They were in one of the parade's carriages and they saw Lucy coming their way. "Hey guys."
"Where's Natsu?"
"Umm… I left him."
"WHAT?!" Lyon yelled.
"He… he shouted and told me to leave him alone, and I couldn't push him too hard!"
"GREAT! Now how the hell are we gonna get him from that crowd?!" Lyon yelled again.
Gray smacked his brother on the head and walked to talk to Lucy himself. "Hey Lucy."
"Oh Gray… thank god you're back." They hugged and pulled away smiling at each other.
"How's he doing?" Gray asked.
"Pretty devastated. You are a cruel man."
"I sure am. Well, just wish me luck."
"I am sorry I couldn't bring him with me."
"Oh don't worry about that! I will think of something."
"Thank you for coming back, Gray."
He smiled and glared at his brother who rolled his eyes.
Natsu woke with a shock. He couldn't believe that he was sleeping all that time and stood quickly grabbing anything to wear to hurry up and join Magnolia's population watching the Fairy Festival which was in action judging by all the noise outside his home.
He wore dark teal Jeans, quickly threw on a sleeveless brown top with a hoodie, slipped his feet into one of his sandals, grabbed his scarf and wrapped it around his neck, then went to wash the sleep off his face. Also, he remembered several times he wasn't at home or the guild and got bounced on by several girls who were fans of the magazine and gulped. He took the yellow sunglasses that Loke gave him and wore it and put on a black cap on his head partially hiding his outstanding pink hair.
"DAMN! I AM GONNA BE LATE! Man, Lucy AND Erza are gonna kill me!"
He practically flew out of his apartment not bothering to lock the door (Not that he had any valuable items inside besides Happy's fish) and stormed to the town's center. "I am LAAAAAAATE!"
The town was very lively. It was evening and the city center was full of people who gathered around the marvelous parade of the Fairy Festival. Natsu got stuck between the large crowd, not being able to appear in the first lines, but he sighed. At least he could see it.
He saw Lucy in her fantastic outfit, and he almost wanted to scream to the world that he was her best friend, only he was too cautious to be discovered by his magazine's crazy fans and clapped for the show quite amazed. Elfman and Lisanna weren't so bad either. Their little act of a princess kidnapped by an ogre was very dramatic and people laughed and cheered happily.
Erza's appearance was a killer as usual. She was drop dead sexy with the Chinese style hair and very exposing dress. Erza was a very charming woman.
He watched one by one and was very proud of his friends. They were all amazing. He grinned and looked at the sky that was shining with fire and magic works.
'I wish you could see this… Gray.'
The crowd cheered and cheered until the carriages and animals stopped moving and Video Lacrimas was opened in many places.
Lucy appeared grinning on the Lacrima, showing all the people her beautiful young flawless body more accurately. Natsu grinned when she waved. "Lucy! Awesome!"
"Hello people of Magnolia! Fairy Tail would like to thank you all for coming today!"
Old perverts were mostly happy, while other normal girls squealed complementing Lucy's style and appearance along with Mirajane who joined. And when Mirajane was visible on big Lacrimas… the crowd couldn't be more lively.
"Thank you everyone! Fairy Tail is happy to present this event! I would like you all to pay attention to the next announcement!"
The Lacrimas picture was moved from Mirajane to-
-Holy crap!
'WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING HERE?!'
Natsu was shocked to see himself surrounded by Gray's face all over the place. He rubbed his eyes to make sure that he was not sleepwalking and was surprised again. Olive green eyes were wide behind yellow sunglasses that almost fell over his nose.
The other black haired teen had a composed face with a serious look and glistening blue eyes. The boy didn't smile at any of the cheers and squeals. In fact, he looked like he waited for everything to calm down before he decided to talk.
"Everyone! This is Gray Fullbuster! The current model in Magnolia's Shounen Ai famous magazine!"
Almost instantly, the crowd seemed to be going all crazy with high pitched screams and cheers.
"OH GOD! GRAY FULLBUSTER! HE CHANGED HIS HAIR STYLE!"
"GRAAAAAAAY!"
"Gray! Gray! Gray!"
"UNBELIEVABLE! THIS FESTIVAL IS THE BEST EVER!"
"-Ahh…" Mirajane sweat dropped and returned, "He has a favor to ask all of you!"
"Kyaaaaaaaa!"
Gray coughed and finally smiled to the screen. "Everyone hears me alright?"
"Haaaaaaaaaaiiiii! Graaaaaay!"
"Thank you very much ladies. Is it alright if I asked you to do me a little favor?"
"ANYTHING FOR GRAY FULLBUSTER!" All people in Magnolia squealed a high pitched squeal not believing their ears! Gray Fullbuster asking for a favor?! From THEM?!
"I am so grateful. Truth is, my lovely boyfriend is lost and I am trying to find him. Please point out where he is if you can see him."
"OH MY…"
"Your boyfriend…"
"COULD IT BE-"
"Yes Ladies. Natsu Dragneel. I believe he has very attractive pink hair."
"GOD! GOD! GOD! NATSU DRAGNEEL IS HERE!"
"GRAY'S BOYFRIEND! IS THIS REAL?! KYAAAAAAAAAA!"
"My, this festival is just getting better!"
Natsu had his fists clenched so tight that his knuckles turned white. What in the world was going on? Why was Gray there? He wasn't happy! No! And if his stomach didn't stop doing those backflips and tickling thing, he'll have to punch himself!
THAT wasn't the problem! The hell! He doesn't want to see Gray anytime soon! That bastard! How dare he say that he was his b-b-boyfriend when he clearly wasn't! Was this another damn advertisement for the damned magazine?!
"Please… help me find my darling… I feel so lost without him." And a few fake tears fell from the ice-mage's eyes making the whole population sympathize and search frantically like hungry animals for his 'Darling'.
'Gray Fullbuster you're doomed WHEN I PUT MY HANDS ON YOU!' Natsu thought panicking and tried to hide from the high quality search that was going on. He adjusted his glasses and cap tightly and tried to run away from the crowd who were pushing each other trying to locate the pink haired boyfriend.
"Boy, I feel bad for Natsu…" Lyon murmured from the carriage standing next to Jellal, Loke and Hibiki who shrugged.
"Our whole plan was ruined. This is the only way we could locate the idiot. The Fullbuster crazy way." Hibiki replied.
"Funny, I had never thought of this…" Jellal stated earning nods from the others.
"Honey… Are you there? Can you hear me?" Gray acted desperate while calling out for his boyfriend who was currently thinking of different ways to kill the Fullbuster.
Gray's act seemed to be getting the people's, especially females' hearts to melt and ache because of the ugly separation between those two super hot boyfriends and their fantasy heroes.
Natsu accidently bumped into a girl's head and apologized for causing her pain. "Ah, I am very sorry!"
"Geez… watch where you are going you-AHHHHH! I FOUND HIM! I FOUND HIM!"
SHIT!
"WHAT? WHERE?!"
"HERE! I FOUND HIM!"
Natsu cursed and ran for his life, and managed to have the whole nation running behind him one by one. This was Gray's fault. The hell with that bastard! What does he want from him after he kicked him out of his house and after he'd been a cold asshole?
"SHIT! SHIT!" He seemed to be running out of breath.
"Wow Ladies and gentlemen! Thank you very much." Gray sweetly said. "Darling~! I found you."
Run! Run! Run!
"I found you." Gray seemed to find the words amusing. "I finally found you."
Natsu finally found someone familiar coming into his view and smiled widely. "GAJEEL! HELP ME!"
"I sure will…" Gajeel smirked evilly then prepared himself.
"What… Gajeel! What are you doing?! Hurry up and-"
"Fly Salamander!" Gajeel used his metallic fist to punch Natsu so hard, enough to send him flying to the parade's carriage where Gray was standing.
"GAJEEL YOU BASTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!" Natsu screamed while practically flying into the air not able to control the speed or the strength of the punch.
"GRAY, HE'S ALL YOURS!" Lyon called his brother who was standing now, looking at the human flying towards his direction.
This is it. He has to make a decision.
"GRAY! HURRY UP!" Lucy hollered scared of the incredible speed that Natsu was approaching with. If he hit that carriage…
It wasn't the first time for Natsu to be kicked that painful, but it was sure scary when he knew that he'd collide with ERZA'S FREAKIN' ARMOR!
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, GRAY?!" Loke yelled.
Gray has to make up his mind. Either he takes this chance and catches Natsu forever… or lets go of him forever.
"IDIOT! MOVE IT!" Lyon almost went to save Natsu himself as he saw Gray standing coldly in his place.
Natsu's eyes widened behind the yellow sunglasses not knowing what is happening, but feeling horror when the huge carriage was coming closer and closer. "N-No… No!" Natsu held his arms on top of his head trying to defend that spot when he mercilessly crashes into the carriage.
"GRAY!" Almost all the guild members said in unison.
Gray's knuckles turned white. His black coat was swinging against the sudden cold wind that flipped it several times and underneath the black hair, a huge magic circle appeared making the people look at it in awe and forget the human jet flying up there.
"Ice…. Make…"
Turn around… Notice me… Look at me… Love me… I can't wait… I will whisper it in your ear…
"Blizzard…."
Suddenly, a strong icy blizzard pushed Gray cruelly upwards and a few people had to cover their ears from the strong sound that resulted due to that push.
Gray opened his arms and caught Natsu's violently flying body successfully and the pink haired boy was more than shocked. Natsu's back was pressed against the other's chest and he panted harshly as they both gently landed safely on their feet. Gray was still having his arms around Natsu's shocked and shaking body.
Everyone was speechless for a while… and Gray decided to break that silence.
"Gotcha!"
That was when Natsu didn't know what to do except for leaning on Gray's body to calm down his accelerated heart beats while his friends released sighed relieved and the crowd 'roared' while cheering.

"…to the point where I've hired and cancelled dozens of hitmen, just as they were about to blow out yours, gray's and Jesse's brains in your/their sleep! By the way you may also want to check your air vents for poison gas. I've also tried to just spike all of natsu's food with pheromones, and aphrodisiacs so that he just gets to the point where he just pulls gray into a secluded area and begs gray to take him…"
No… Nooooooooooo! THE THINGS YOU PEOPLE WANT TO DO TO MY CHARACTERS!
Hahaha… sorry for creating this troublesome story, but I certainly wish it's worth all the read. I got to tell you, you have a pretty catchy pen name. I like it so very much and it makes me feel warm inside, I don't know why. I'm so weird like that. Thank you also following my other story "Bouquet of Genuine love". It's an honor *Bows!*
Yeah, about the aphrodisiacs in Natsu's food… I tried to do that… but what can I say? The moron is an ASEXUAL!
^.^ Thanks for the lovely comment! Enjoy the chapter!

"Aww... no deal? You sure? How's about a seal? But okay, if you say so... Getting rid of Jesse won't be hard, right? Here, you can borrow my flamethrower if you need! Oh yeah, and shoving people (like Natus and Gray) in the bathroom IS a good idea, right? BEHOLD MY GENIOUSOSTIY. Ok, I know that's not a real word, but bear with it, k?"
Because I admire your review, you have to suffer reading my reply to it, hahaha. It was… hilarious… I can't believe you got to be this funny and smart!
I know 'GENIOUSOSTIY' is not a real word too… but damn! That was really genius! How did you get to put this word together? I tried to mix up different words to get a good hilarious word but I can't and you can ask my keyboard…. Poor thing it suffered a lot as it was abused by me… and I Know that the bathroom Idea is super 'Hot Wrong' but… you think Natsu would go for that? he'd probably make the entire building or 'Place' hear them and their HOT activities… so no. Forget the bathroom!
"OK THIS IS FAIRY TAIL NOT BLACK BUTLER MUST KEEP ON TRACK."
Kuroshitsuji… I loved that anime. Sebastian was my favorite and Ciel was the second. And their photos together… (MAJOR NOSE BLEED!) I ABSLOUTLY ADORE THAT PAIRING! Ok… doesn't mean you adore it too… But I guess I wanted to burst my love of those pairings to the world!... Damn iT! Back to Natsu and Gray!
"Oh yeah, Mr. Hibiki... *glares* HOW DARE YOU SCAR GRAY'S POOR NOW-NOT-SO-INNOCENT MIND?! *pulls out chainsaw*
I got to tell you… Hibiki is so… very scared right now.
"I'm really planning on how to kill you both right now... I know my flamethrower won't work on Natsu, and Gray taken too much of Natsu's fire to be affected... Explosives are in a safe right now, don't have time for those... Knives? Nah, not strong enough for those two. Oh well, I'll plan later."
Great Lord… My hair went white while reading that… PLEASE! LOWER YOUR TENDENCIES OF SLASHING/SHOOTING/BOMBING/SLAUGHTERING/STRANGLING PEOPLE IN THIS FIC… God… was I reason of all of this? Did I do that to you? T^T… *Sniffles!*
"LE PRAISE! OH, SO MUCH PRAISE! WHAT A BEAUTIMOUSLY WONDERFUL CHAPTER WE HAVE HERE!"
You know what I think? French and English. Works really well and as hilarious as tons. This made me laugh non-stop! Haha, thank you so much for boosting up my screwed up mood. And seriously… what's going on between you and whales?
Hehe, well your opinion about last chapter was very nice to read. I hope this chapter will be enjoyable all the same!

"…aww... gray is so cute when traumatized! aww... the poor waitress was just killed by me."
Haha, I was so very surprised. Looks like you have a lot of waitresses to hunt in this fic. And I wish you good luck! … I agree… Gray kinda makes me want to hug him when he's sad…
Anyway! Thank you very much!

"THE PAIN OF HAVING TO CHOOSE BETWEEN SYMPATHIZING WITH HIS POSITION AND WANTING HIM TO JUST DO SOMETHING..."
Yes Indeed… Haha, well thank you for reviewing this, I thought I had you sent away for while to a mental hospital where they treat the fanfiction traumatized people. Apparently I can create fanfics that makes people go crazy!
Haha, well I hope he's done something now ^^

"Oh gosh...GRAY-SAMA your killing me here. He was right there ready to commit to you and you blew…"
Yes. Yes he's killing everyone, and I will kill HIM SOON!
Hahah, sorry dear (Hugs!) I promise you he's gonna be a good boy soon. Just for you I'll try to stop him from being such a mean jerk to everyone reading this.
Well, thanks! I wish you have fun reading!
Thank you all! You've been my inspiration to this story.
