I have my inspiration to write again!
Thank You Hiro Mashima for returning the gang back to their rightful place in Fairy Tail!
You will find out who wins the "Where will Little Lucy stay with?" poll!
Around that time, Lucy had come running back in and noticing the weird atmosphere.
"Ito... what's wrong?" She noticed Erza, who had collapsed on the floor, she huffed over to Loki and pinched both his cheeks.
"Did Onii-san do something bad to Erza-Onee-sama?" She asked accusingly.
"I didn't do anything Lucy-Hime..." Loki replied, well as well as he can say it with his cheeks pinched out, and a nervous grin plastered on his stretched out face. She was then soon tackled into a hug by Natsu, who was comically crying his eyes out, along with Happy.
"Natsu-Onii-san? Whats wrong?" Lucy asked as she tried desperately to pry him off. "LUCY! YOUR BACK!"
"I was only gone for 10 minutes Natsu-Onii-san!"
"LUSHY!" Natsu continued crying as his face was being pushed away.
"Well, now that, thats cleared up. Where do you want to stay Lucy-chan?" Mira asked, coming up from behind Lucy. That seemed to shut the guild up. Fairy Tail was deathly quiet for about 0.10 milliseconds (NEW RECORD!) before erupting into an all out fight.
"I will state once again, Lucy will come with me and Happy!" Natsu stated.
"What about me?" Lisanna piped cheerfully.
"With me!" Levy protested.
"ME!" Erza boomed.
"What about me? Hello?" Gray yelled irritated.
"With none of you!" Loki bellowed with no avail.
"QUIET!" Lucy's yell was enough to shut the guild up entirely. Satisfied, she planted herself down and looked around.
"I want to stay with..."
She glanced around the room, until a certain mage caught her eye.
"Gray-Onii-san!"
"WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!"
The whole guild stared at her in shock, except for two certain idiots. Gray smirked as he pushed away Natsu's furious face. "You got her brain-washed Underwear prince!" Natsu hissed, currently fire coming out of his head comically.
Lucy blinked in amusement, planting her self on the table. Continuing playing with the ice creations, when suddenly voices echoed through her head.
"Lucy! Want to go on a mission?" Lucy tilted her head. "Natsu-Nii?"
"Sure! Should we bring Gray and Erza too?"
Lucy blinked in confusion. This voice. She's heard it. But, where?
"AWW! Luce! I just want it to be me, you, and Happy! It's been a long time since we've done that, you are my partner!"
A muffled laugh then finished the audio, Lucy blinking in confusion. Almost sadness. "That voice..." Before Lucy could wonder more about the situation though, she felt a pair of well built arms wrap around her small waist.
Letting out a small squeak, she whipped her head around to see the owner of the arms, only for her chocolate brown orbs to meet with dark blue ones.
"Gray-Nii-san?"
He gave her a toothy grin, similar to Natsu's. "Are you tired Lucy-chan?"
Lucy thought for a moment, then nodded her head.
"Then lets go." He stated running off with her on his shoulder out of the guild, unnoticed because of all the commotion.
Gray's house seemed normal. It was a house, just outside of town square. A 1 bedroom, 2 bathroom, and an awesome living and dining room, completed with a kitchen.
Gray smiled as he entered the house, planting Lucy on his couch.
"Are you hungry Lucy-chan?"
Lucy nodded. Adding a "Thank you" in the end. Gray smiled as he walked into the kitchen, leaving Lucy to wander around the room and looking at the wonders hanging the walls.
She was most interested in the pictures.
There were some of his younger days at the guild, and even the guild itself. There were pictures of all his nakama, but on the right. Totally separate from the others were pictures of Natsu, Erza, himself, and this blonde girl.
One of Natsu and Gray fighting, one of Erza's birthday party a few years ago, and of all of them. One picture had Gray, with his arm flung over the blonde girls shoulder. Both smiling a genuine smile. It seemed like the most cherished one.
Lucy recognized this blonde. But, she might not be sure. She looked around for a mirror, when she did, it was far from her reach and head. Curse her shortness.
Thats when Gray came back in with food, some cookies and milk.
They ate in a comfortable silence, before Lucy spoke up.
"Gray-Onii-san? Who's that?"
Gray, who was in the middle of a cookie, raised an eyebrow. Looking at the girl quizzically, he replied to the question with another one.
"Who Lucy-chan?"
"That pretty Onee-chan right there." She said gulping down some milk and pointing at the blonde.
Gray looked to where she was pointing, and almost chocked on his cookie. That picture. His treasured picture. Made by just a few weeks before that happened. Looking back at the innocent Lucy-chan, waiting patiently for the answer, he sighed.
"Lucy-chan. That girl is my team-mate. She actually has the same name as you Lucy-chan. Only, me and flame brain call her Luce."
Lucy nodded in understanding. "What happened to her Onii-san? Where is she?"
Gray winced at the memory of Lucy. Wait. He looked down at Lucy-chan, a soft gaze replacing his hurt ones.
"She's in a better place Lucy-chan. A very, better place."
Smiling at the happy ending, Lucy sat on his lap, finishing her cookie and eventually falling asleep in his lap.
Gray starred down at her sleeping figure. Deciding that she could sleep in his room for the time being, he picked her up, feeling her small fingers wrap around his neck, he walked to his room laying her down and turning off the light.
But, before he could leave, he felt Lucy tug at his shirt. Looking down at the fragile body, he whispered softly.
"Whats wrong Lucy-chan?"
Yawning a bit, Lucy answered groggily.
"Don't leave me Onii-san. Don't leave me like Kaa-san..." She said it with such innocence, and sadness, Gray was forced to lay there next to her. He felt her happily snuggle into his chest, he got a bit of pink tinge on his face.
"I'll just stay here till she falls asleep. Then I'll leave for the couch."
