A.N: Hello again! This isn't the one-shot I had in mind but I decided to write it since... Well, I guess I was bored? I'm still working out my other one-shot so it might take some time. However, I want to point out that I'm searching for a beta reader! Yes, I bolded it hoping it will catch some of your attention. If you're willing to become a beta reader for me please send me a PM. I'd appreciate it a lot. I would also like to point out that I'm looking for one in a Naruto fanfiction, too. So if you're interested to be one (or both) I would really love to hear from you. Of course I would love to hear a review for this, too! Thanks for taking your time and I hope you enjoy!

Ciao,

Kaede-chanxo

Jealousy

He grumbles to himself as he walks down the street, crossing his arms over his bare chest. Ever since Natsu brought the newest member, Lucy Heartfillia, he's been hanging all over her. He doesn't pick on Gray much anymore. And as much as Gray hates to admit it, he misses all of their fights. Why did Natsu have to be the one to find Lucy?!

He didn't mind Lucy as a person, but he really wants her to stop being around Natsu so much. As he thinks this he scowls more, scaring away some of the citizens. It's not his fault, really! Natsu was his first. Gray pauses, his eyes widening in surprise.

Did he just call Natsu... his? He can't just claim the poor guy! He has been there for Natsu though. And he knows more about him then Lucy. Sure, Lucy has a great body and big breast... Is that why Natsu is hanging around her? For her appearance? Or maybe her being a Celestian wizard is interesting to the flame head? Gray pauses again and wrinkles his nose in annoyance. Does Natsu even know what a romantic love is? He highly doubts the bird brain does. He only loves Happy, his family, and fire. Well, food is up there, too.

"Gray your clothes." Cana calls out, scaring the ice mage half to death. When the hell did he arrive at the guild?! And when did he lose his clothes? Gray glances down at himself and sighs in relief. He still has his boxers on.

"I don't know," Gray answers, shrugging his shoulders as he sits down at a table, refusing to look for his missing clothes. He has too much on his mind right now. Yesterday he found out the dumbass went on another mission with the new member. He frowns deeper, his eyebrows narrowing. Why does he care about the pinkette? It's not like Natsu and Lucy are alone, Happy is there too. Or at least Happy better be there. He would be furious if Natsu let with Lucy alone.

While Gray is lost in thoughts Cana watches him curiously, putting down her barrel of beer. Why is he so out of it? He hasn't even searched for his clothes. He usually searches right away unless he's in the middle of a fight.

"Mira," Cana calls out towards the barmaid, Mirajane. Mirajane walks over to Cana and tilts her head to the side, smiling gently, asking Cana what she wants. "Doesn't Gray seem a bit odd? He's been acting like this for a while now.."

"He's been like this since Natsu brought Lucy to the guild." Mirajane confirms, sighing softly and frowning, "I really hate seeing him like this. He looks so depressed."

"I don't get why he's acting like that though. Is he jealous that Natsu gets to hang out with the cute blonde?" Cana questions, raising her eyebrow. Gray never seemed interested in girls though. "Not to brag or anything, but the guild has some hot girls too, so is he after a hot blonde or is he just mad that his rival got to her first?"

"Hm, I don't know, Cana." Mirajane answers, shrugging her shoulders, hiding a smile. Gray is most likely jealous of his missing rival. Lucy has distracted Natsu a lot. She even heard they formed a team together. In her eyes, Gray is definitely jealous of Lucy. He wants to be in her place.

Natsu enters the guild with Happy resting on his head and Lucy is still crying about the jewels. Seriously, doesn't she ever stop complaining? She complained about the mission, she complained about the unrewarded money, and she complained about him attacking Gray. He was just trying to protect them! That girl didn't even walk, she called on one of her spirits!

However, despite all of her flaws he thinks Lucy is a nice girl. She's still a new friend of his and he'll just have to get over the things he doesn't like. He knows for a fact most people can't stand his transportation problem, so it's understandable.

He couldn't help but to remember his fight with Gray, though. Gray seemed beyond anger for some odd reason. Sure, he attacked the guy while he was just trying to go to the bathroom, but still!

Natsu walks over to the table and sits down, ordering a drink. Lucy, on the other hand, glances nervously over at Gray, smiling weakly. She doesn't know what she did wrong but that boy was furious at her. And if she has to guess it has to do with Natsu.

Lucy watches as Gray walks over to Natsu and provokes him. As the rivals start to fight together most of the guild joins. Except the females. Lucy watches Mirajane approach her and smiles brightly, waving at her.

"Lucy, how was the mission go?" Mirajane asks calmly keeping an eye on Gray, making sure he doesn't accidentally hit Lucy.

"We didn't even get paid!" Lucy groans out, crossing her arms over her busty chest, "It's annoying, truly! I mean I know we didn't finish the mission completely but still. Natsu knew in the beginning that the man wasn't even rich!" As she continues to complain Mirajane stares at her in hidden disbelief. "However, I'm glad we helped him. He finally got to see what his father wanted to tell him." Lucy finiches smiling even more.

Yeah, she has her good sides and bad sides, everyone will just have to get use to it. It'll only take some time. However, Mirajane notices Gray glaring over at Lucy whenever he blocks an attack so she decided to act.

"Ah, yes. Lucy I thought I should warn you about something..." Mirajane trails off, sending Lucy a bright, cheerful smile, "Gray is a very jealous man and he doesn't like to share Natsu." And with that Mirajane skips off, leaving a shocked Lucy.

"W-Wait! I don't like Natsu though!" She shouts out in embarrassment. Too bad he didn't hear her.
