Chapter 3 "Im not angry..."

Cold breeze sways from the sea. The Island's already dark, well it's not that dark because the moon is really clear. It's not long that Ultear, Meredy and I walk back from the beach. But the silence is killing me! Maybe I should start a conversation?

"So... Is that mean I owe you guys something?"

The two of them stopped walking. Meredy looked at Ultear, while Ultear just smiled.

"Owe you what?"

Said the pinkette, grinning. She knew what I meant. Geez really, do I have to describe every little things I said?

"Well, you did tried to cheer me up... so... yeah maybe I owe you two..."

I said scratching the back of my head, hiding my embarrassment. Now that I think about it maybe it sound a little dumb. Every second we're here is wasted for tomorrow tournament.

"Well, just forget I said anything... Let's go"

I said walking past the two of them. But stopped myself when my right hand was grabbed by someone.

"Wait"

Its Ultear.

"..."

I turned around. Her face looked serious, same goes to Meredy.

"I... We... We want to tell you something..."

Hm...? What is it?

"I know maybe you still hate me for all I have done, and maybe the least I could do is help you and the others by giving them extra power..."

...

"But... We didn't actually apologized aren't we?"

Oh yeah, there's that time too...

"Ultear..."

"Gray..."

I take a deep breath and exhale it.

"Im sorry"

I said, bow a bit.

"We're sorry... what? Why would you apologized for?"

Meredy just stared, dumbfounded. While Ultear still confused. Being stared at of course I would be embarrassed!

"It's just that... I... kind of punch you... you know?"

...

Silence...

"Pffftttt hahahahahaha!"

Loud laughter, its Meredy. Then Ultear followed by a small chuckle. My face reddened.

"Wh-what so funny? I know I punch a girl! Im sorry okay!"

"That's not it Gray..."

Said Ultear still chuckling.

"It's just that... you didn't change at all"

Well of course, Im missing for 7 years alright. I retort in my head. Not long Meredy start walking. Ultear followed.

"Um... hey you know..."

I said. The two stopped hearing me.

"I don't care what happened in the past... It's now that matters..."

"...Gray..."

"And besides, you look prettier from before, Ultear"

I said adding a little joke.

"..."

Ok maybe the joke didn't work... Eh? Ultear?

"Hey Ultear, Are you alright? Your face is red"

She had a fever? Well of course, they wearing that kind of clothes on the beach at night. But she didn't respon and just run away.

...did I... do something?

"Wow, good move Gray!"

Meredy said, giving me thumbs up. Ok I don't know what that means.

oooooooooooooooooo

"Gray... where the hell have you been all this time?"

Its Erza. Okay she's mad alright! Gotta find a reason for... wait a minute...

"And... where were you?"

I said, my fear change to a rage.

"Me? I... I... Just... I just talking to Jellal. We have something to discuss"

Oh... stuttering, eh?

"Oh~ Ok you two have something to discuss... yeah, yeah..."

"Wha-what's with that tone? Do you have something to said?"

Her failed attempt at threatening making it so much better. I Ignore her, and looked around.

"Where's Jellal?"

"He... got something to do"

"And that is...?"

Erza vein is popping, and I know that she's pissed right now. Heh...

"How the hell should I know, Gray? Now tell me, where have you been?"

"Im searching for you"

Erza eyes widdened. Small gasp escaped from her lips. She's looks like a kid that just broke an expensive vas.

I looked away from her. Her face is frowning. I can't stand it.

"Im sorry, Gray"

"..."

Great, now I feel guilty for what I have done. Maybe Im too harsh on her? Well for now, let's just go to the others for Ultear magic's... er... power up?

ooooooooooooooo

Uugghh... Is it over? Ok now I know what Natsu feels. And by the way... where is this? Oh yeah, its a small room-like house that come form nowhere... eheh, good one Gray. So... why did I woke up? Ugh... Im drenched in sweat.

Damn it I can't move... Eh, oh! Lucy leaned on my shoulder, and Juvia too... There's Levy on my leg, and Wendy on my tight... why is everyone leaning on me? Im not a pillow!

Agh! Who cares about that... It's hot in here, I want to get out... But I can't move in this position...

"Um... girls? Could all of you wake up for a while?"

... no answer ...

"please?"
