I'm back sorry for the delay. Happy New Years! XD and Merry Xmas. Sadly i was preoccupied so i wasn't able to get any writing dne. Anyway here's the next chapter hope you enjoy. I don't have much to say except that soon the first chapter of my next story will be up. Oh and Spoiler Alert at the end of the chapter.

Gray having no idea where to go decided to head to his house. Not many people knew where Gray lived, a fact he was glad for after seeing how tough it was for Lucy. Despite what most people presume Gray actually owned a very luxurious home. (I'm just guess cause of all the members of team Natsu, Gray is the only one I can't remember seeing him actually buy something significant. Plus can u remember him getting anything other than water, booze and smokes. Also Gray doesn't really destroy a tone of buildings like the others. And it the fic he went on a lot of solo missions. So at least in this fic Gray's kinda loaded.) He strolled around town and ran into the occasional morning jogger.

He had gotten pretty close to his house and was actually getting pretty excited to see it after so long. He was then met with an unusual encounter. He was leisurely walking on his way when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned to see who it was and was met with the site of a pinkette. She was short and petite and resembled Levy quite a bit, except she had a rack. She wore a light pink and white sundress and there was a pink umbrella floating over her head. Gray found it kind of nauseating to see all that pink for obvious reasons.

The girl spoke up "Well hello Mr. Fullbuster."

She looked oddly familiar but Gray couldn't quite remember who she was. He was certain she was a member of the guild despite not knowing her personally. "Hey… nice to meet you."

"Oh I'm sorry. It was foolish of me to think you'd remember me. The name's Rose. I just wanted to thank you for helping me back then. So…thank you, very much."

Gray reciprocated with a smile that hid the fact that he had no idea what in the hell she was talking about. It was a skill he had developed due to his experiences with Cana and Erza. At a young age he learnt that with women it was sometimes to just go along with what they said, especially Erza.

"So… um… Gr-Gray, why are you in your boxers?" Her cheeks were tinted red then she cutely giggled at how flustered Gray. After composing himself and finding his pants, his shirt was not so lucky, he bid the girl good bye. He wanted to ask her who she was but he didn't want to offend her if he really had forgotten.

"Well, I'll see you later."

"You don't remember me do you? We didn't have a chance to talk when we met. You saved me and Skye from a horde of vulcans." As she said it images began to flash in Gray's mind. It finally dawned on him that he wasn't the one that saved her, it was his familiar Daedalus. He was about to tell her but she waved good bye and went on her way. Gray didn't think much of it but the thought kept crossing his mind, girls are weird. And let's face as of late Gray had been meeting some real weirdoes.

He continued on his way to his house after realizing that he was only getting distracted. He finally made it to his house he got quite the shock. There were two girls waiting in front of his house, who just so happened to be none other than Lucy and Juvia. It couldn't be an accident; they were standing directly in front of his house. "Gray sama!" it was Juvia who greeted him first then Lucy.

After the formalities were taken care of Gray spoke up, "So why are you guys here?"

"How rude Gray. Obviously we came to help you clean, duh." Said Lucy.

"But how did you know where I lived?"

"Oh that was Juvia."

Gray could feel the sweat accumulate on his brow. He knew that Juvia had a slight crush on him (yes he considers it a slight crush) but he never knew it went to such extremes. Gray had always gone to limit of his abilities to avoid drawing attention to his house. The only people who actually knew where he lived were the Master, Cana and Mira who had Kinana who had brought food for him when he had been trying to avoid Mira. For Juvia to know meant that as he feared Juvia really did stalk him. "Ah Gray sama." Gray nearly flew out of his skin when he heard Juvia's voice. She was looking quite adorable in her outfit; a blue sundress that complemented her hair. She didn't look like she was really dressed for cleaning but that was the least of his concern. He finally came to the realization that he was being stalked.

"Well Gray aren't you going to invite us in?" It was more of an order so he felt like he didn't have much choice in the matter. Once the door was opened Lucy burst through with an unnatural enthusiasm. It was like she was enjoying finally being the one invading someone else's house.

There was a film of dust covering everything but pretty much everything in the living room seemed to be intact. Gray spotted Lucy's facial expression and so he inquired as to why she was pouting. She responded, "It's nice, it's very nice."

"What is?"

Her assault began. She started pounding his chest with her fist. "Your house you idiot! If your house is this nice why do you need to be at my place?!" Gray burst out laughing it had been a while since he saw someone throw a tantrum, but it made him glad. With the way everyone's appearances had change and they seemed to be more mature. He was glad that at least Lucy proved him wrong. He started to run away from her while being pelted by balled up clothes that just seemed to magically appear. While both of them were enjoying their childish game Juvia had found herself enraged at being completely ignored and was left there mumbling 'love rival' over and over again like a chant.

*RIP IGNEEL KING OF THE FIRE DRAGONS.

And people Zeref killed Mard Geer. I feel even sadder that he died. He was like my favourite FT villain major bummer. I had high hopes for him. But alas not all things were meant to be... or were they. In the end all these events are going according to plan for my story ;)
