I Dare You

Chapter Six - Goodbye

Gray's POV

I kept my eyes on Natsu's. He kept trying to look away; to keep his distance as he spoke. I could feel my temperature rising with each word that left his lips, my heart pounding faster with each breath he took. I suddenly felt the dread and fear overflowing in my heart. I didn't want to lose my memories…to forget this. This feeling and the feelings I had for this pink headed flame head. I didn't even know when or how they would disappear. I blinked and realized Natsu was smirking at how my eyes widened. I watched his lips as he continued to speak.

"I know. Who am I to claim you? But…I care deeply for you Gray. I want you to be with me forever. I-"

I could no longer hold myself back. Natsu had always been there for me and I had to let him know just how much that meant to me. I needed him. The warmth emanating from his lips was amazing as if they were melting my own and blending with his. I felt the couch at my back and noticed I was lying down with the dragon hovering above me. I could tell Natsu was holding back and trying not to hurt me. I struggled to keep the moans from escaping my mouth as Natsu created the friction between us. I've never felt like this nor would I have ever thought I'd feel like this for Natsu, but I no longer care about meaningless shit like that. I needed him in every sense of the word and he knew it. It's strange how well we fit together.

I felt everything getting hotter by the second and it was soon it was becoming too much to handle. I took hold of the hair I had wrapped around my fingers and pulled the fire mage off, both of us were gasping for air. I stared at him as his lust filled eyes trailed over my body. Even though we stopped I don't understand why I still feel so hot. My heart wasn't slowing and now my vision was blurring. I tried to use my magic to create something that would cool me down, but suddenly I could no longer move. I was frozen stuck on a couch beneath a panting dragon slayer, who didn't even notice. I didn't understand what was going on or why I couldn't move. Then it hit me.

I can't do magic because for some reason I can't move...meaning my memories were next. I didn't know what to do other than panic and it didn't do much of anything because I couldn't move. My vision continued to deteriorate, my heart wouldn't slow, and my temperature wouldn't decrease. Natsu wouldn't be able to tell because he's hot as it is. I don't know what to do! NATSU! I felt my body being lifted up and onto Natsu's lap. He placed his head against my chest and slowly inhaled. After a few minutes of slowly breathing in and out against my chest, Natsu spoke again.

"Gray. I love you." Natsu said looking up at me.

I looked down at him and felt the urge to cry. I couldn't move or say anything. I started screaming anything, telling him what I felt, telling him to help me. Then I heard something behind me…

"This is it Gray Fullbuster. Say goodbye." Alekander spat in my ear.

I spun around only to see his form fade away. I turned back towards Natsu and only saw white. I collapsed to my knees screaming until an ice crystal appeared in front of me. It expanded showing me what looked like a time line of my entire life. I saw my time with Ur and Lyon. The beast that ruined my life as well as many others, Deliora. Then I saw my memories from being in Fairy Tail. I felt the fear again when Erza got mad me and Natsu for fighting. Felt the laughter I had for when Lucy tried to stop me and Natsu from fighting. The crystal expanded more and showed every memory…every moment I had with Natsu. Those were the best moments of my life. I looked down and saw a small puddle beneath me and realized I was crying. Suddenly the crystal began shaking and panic shot through my body as each memory shown began fading.

"NO! PLEASE STOP! NATSU! I DON'T WANT TO FORGET!"

I continued to scream my lungs out and cry until my eyes were bloodshot. I knew there wasn't a way to stop it. There wasn't a way to go back. I would never again be able to look at Natsu the way I do now. I would never have the life I have now. I pulled the remaining strength I had and stood. I stared at the memories being violated and erased. The tears continued to fall.

"Good…bye Natsu."

As the last of my memories were erased, my body started to fade. I closed my eyes. I saw Natsu smiling and holding his hand out for me. I took his hand and vanished...no longer existing in the same world as the one I loved.

(A/N) Again tearing up over here. This is shorter chapter to pretty much tell you what was happening when Gray began to lose his memories. Because I know that he lost them pretty quick in the last chapter so this is to tell you all what was going on before ,during, and after their make out session. We will be seeing more of Alekander and Evlen in the next few chapters I'm sure. Well please REVIEW even though its short. Longer chapter coming soon. :)
