Thank you everyone who read Chapter 1! I am so excited.
Enjoy xx
Btw I do not own Fairy Tail or the characters, but it would be pretty cool if I did.
Chapter 2: Blushing about Ramen?
"You finally look pretty good today."
"Gray?" Lucy asked the ice mage.
"Yeah Luce?" replied Gray.
"I really got to tell you something, but don't freak out," warned Lucy.
"Sure . . . Okay, what is it?" questioned Gray.
Feeling unsure about telling him the truth, she took a deep breath.
"Gray, I love you, and I reall-"
Lucy didn't understand what happened. She had just confessed her love for Gray, but she was interrupted by the touch of his lips. She couldn't believe that Gray kissed her. The kiss lasted for a minute, even though it only felt like a second.
"Lucy," Gray finally spoke, "I love y-"
Just as Gray was about to confess his love for Lucy, a certain celestial spirit woke Lucy from her slumber.
"Princess, get up," said the handsome spirit.
"Loke, why are you here?" yawned Lucy, who was upset due to the fact that she was having the best dream ever.
"I came to see you, since it's been a while," responded Loke, "Why do you have a cranky look on your face?"
"I was having an amazing dream and something big was about to happen," said the blonde before she pushed her face against her pillow.
"Were you dreaming about me?" Loke snickered.
"No, I was dreaming about . . . . the new outfit I wanted to buy yesterday," Lucy lied.
"It's okay, Lucy, you don't have to lie about your feelings for me," Loke proclaimed, "Well I have to go, don't miss me too much."
Just before Lucy was about to say a snappy remark, the celestial spirit disappeared.
Lucy sighed, "I guess I should get ready and head out to the guild."
*A couple of hours later*
Lucy started making her way to Fairy Tail. A couple of older men whistled at her. She didn't say anything, but gave them a disgusted look.
"Those men must have no respect towards women. I'm not a dog; therefore, they shouldn't whistle at me. I wish that I had a boyfriend. Ugh, I sound so desperate, but I'm tired of being lonely. Aquarius must be right; I'll never get a boyfriend. Lucy, stop! Don't let her negative words influence my thoughts. I'll get a boyfriend . . . someday.
As Lucy's thoughts rumbled, she saw a flame and an ice mage fist fighting outside the guild.
"Hi guys," Lucy said cheerfully.
Gray stopped fighting and his eyes met Lucy's.
"Uhm, hi Lucy," Gray said as he blushed.
Before Lucy could say anything, or better yet, before she could even react to his blushing, Natsu punched Gray in the face.
"Yippee!" Natsu jumped in the air, "I won! I got the last hit!"
Gray didn't care. The only thing that he could think about was how Lucy looked. She wore a blue mini skirt with a white and blue top. He has seen her in that outfit before, but he felt there was something different about her today.
"Lucy looks really cute today. I mean, she always looks cute, but today she looks even cuter. Maybe I should give her a compliment or something," Gray thought.
"Lucy, you finally look pretty good today," blurted Gray.
". . . . Thanks," scolded Lucy as she walked into the guild.
Gray couldn't help but think about how rude he was towards Lucy. "Shit, what the hell was I thinking? 'You finally look pretty good today,' that was basically saying that she looked ugly on the other days. Man, I suck at talking to girls. I need to apologize to her right now."
"What the hell? Why did he insult me? I understand that he loves Juvia, but he didn't have to be rude to me," Lucy thought as she was walking towards the bar. As soon as she was about to sit down, someone gently grabbed her arm.
"Lucy," Gray said. He noticed that Lucy was staring at the arm that he grabbed, so he awkwardly let go of her arm. He started messing in his hair, "I'm sorry about what I said a while ago. I didn't mean it."
Lucy smiled, "It's okay, Gray. It didn't affect me," trying to stop Gray from worrying.
"That's good," replied Gray. He felt his face getting hot.
Mirajane was observing their whole conversation and couldn't help but to butt in.
"Gray, why are you blushing?" asked Mira.
"Oh, I'm blushing? I didn't notice," Gray responded.
"You're blushing almost as much as Lucy was before you, Natsu, and Erza arrived back. You should've seen her; she turned red every time someone mentioned –"
"RAMEN!" exclaimed Lucy. She knew that if she didn't interrupt Mira, she was going to say something about Gray. "Crap I couldn't think of anything else, besides food?" she thought.
Mira giggled and walked away.
"You must've been really hungry," laughed Gray.
Lucy laughed a little, realizing how stupid she sounded. "Come on, Lucy, get your act together. Maybe I should tell him the truth," she wondered.
"Gray?" asked Lucy.
"Yeah Luce?" replied Gray.
When Lucy heard him call her Luce, her heart melted. It was just like her dream.
"I got to tell you something, but don't freak out" warned Lucy.
"Sure . . . Okay, what is it?" question Gray.
"Holy crap! This is just like my dream, but will it end the same? I'm finally going to confess to him. After months and months of preparing, I'm finally going to do it." Lucy thought as she smiled.
"Gray, I -" Lucy was interrupted again. It wasn't by Gray's lips this time, but by someone running towards Gray.
That someone was Juvia.
"GRAY-SAMA!" shouted Juvia stopping in front of Gray and Lucy.
"Hi Juvia," said Gray, he turned towards Lucy and opened his mouth, but no words came out. He noticed Lucy had a disappointed look on her face.
"What's wrong with Lucy? She was just smiling less than a second ago. What was she going to tell me?" Gray wondered.
"Gray-sama," Juvia continued, she started blushing and started looking at the floor, "Would Gray-sama like to go on a job with Juvia?"
"Uhm sure, Juvia," answered Gray.
Juvia eyes lit up and she had the biggest smile on her face. "Thank you, Gray-sama." She gave Gray a tight hug and ran out of the guild as happy as ever.
Gray scratched his head, confused on why Juvia would want to go on a job with him.
"Hey Lucy, what were you going to tell me earlier?" Gray asked. As he was about to give Lucy his attention, the blonde wasn't there. Apparently Lucy dashed out the back door of the guild before Gray could say another word to her.
"Lucy, what were you thinking? Why was I about to confess to Gray, when he already has a love interest? Now those two are going to go on a job together; they will probably confess their love for another and then start dating. Hell, they might eventually get married! Lucy couldn't get those thoughts out of her head. She noticed that she was crying. As she was running and wiping her tears at the same time, she heard someone yell her name.
"Lucy!"
She recognized the person's voice. "Oh no" she thought.
"Lucy!" she heard the voice again. She began to hear footsteps.
Someone was running after her, but who?
You're probably wondering who is running after Lucy. Well, you'll find out if your answer is correct in the next chapter! I couldn't help but smile the whole entire time I wrote this. Graylu is seriously the cutest ship ever. Anyways, review/follow/favorite 3 I'm probably going to write chapter 3 today or either tomorrow! So I'll most likely update tomorrow or the next day.
