Chapter 3

x Gray's POV x

When the sun started interrupting my sleep, I opened my eyes. But a rough pain flashed trough my head and I closed them again. It was the well-known pain of the hangover. Well, it wasn't like I was that much of a drinker. I just go to drink with Cana a lot, as one of her best friends..

Anyway, I shut open my eyes again, as I felt the warm embrace around me. I looked at my side and saw him, smiling in his sleep. I was just about to start shouting, but then I noticed I was fully dressed and he.. Well, he was shirtless, but he had his pants on, so it still counted.. And I didn't mind him at all, he had a well-built body… I slowly started slipping out of his iron-like embrace, carefully not to wake him up, but I kicked him (not on porpoise, of course) and he opened his sleepy greyish-green eyes,

"So, you're awake.." He rubbed the sleep from his eyes, letting me out of his embrace, and yawned lazily.

"Um, yeah. Mind telling me what happened last night after I got drunk?" I blushed and quickly looked away from him, hoping he wouldn't notice it. He chuckled,

"Nothing happened, actually. You fell asleep on the bar and I asked a friend to cover me up, so I could get ya out of the club. But I didn't know where you live, so I brought you to my place." With his last words, he smirked and his features got as pink as his hair. I blushed in a darker shade of red,

"Well, thank you, then. I don't know what brother would have said if he'd saw me in the condition I was last night.. He'd probably kicked me outta the house.."

"Is your brother that much of a bastard you make him sound like?" He riced a brow, but continued smirking.

"In my opinion, yes. But if you ask his girlfriend, she'll tell you how awesome he is and stuff like that. And she's not that bad, actually. I don't really know how a good girl like her ended up with a bastard like big bro.."

His smirk disappeared as he looked away, nervously scratching the back of his head,

"So, you like his girlfriend?"

"Wha-NO! Of course not! She's just a friend, although, she gets a little annoying sometimes.. Why do you ask?"

He looked back to me, grinning,

"Nah, you were just talking what a good girl she was and stuff like that, so I thought that you like her, that's all.."

I looked at him disappointed, because I kinda wanted to hear him saying that he was jealous of Juvia, or something…

"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me as I've disappointed you with something?" His gaze was worried. Wow, he looked cute!

"Uh, it's nothing.. Don't worry about it.." Then I noticed the clock on the wall. "Oh, I must be in the pool in 10 minutes. How far is your place from there?" I looked back at him. His gaze was still on me, but not worried anymore.

"5 minutes on feet." He got up from the bed, "Wanna get something for breakfast?" I blushed,

"Mind if you come with me to the pool and we get breakfast on our way there?" Oh, gods, there we go, I said it! I was sure my face was so crimson at the moment, but his one turned redder too.

"I-I can't swim.." He looked to the floor, his face hidden by pink locks.

"Don't worry." I chuckled. "You can watch me while I'm swimming!" What the HELL did I just say? Anyways, he looked back at me and smiled with that soft smile of his,

"I'd love to" He walked to the large wardrobe, that was across the room, got a random shirt and put it on. "Let's get going, I'm starving!" He grinned stupidly and I smiled at him. We walked out of his apartment, got some fast food on the way and entered the building, where the pool was. We walked to the dressing rooms, so I could change in my swimming trunks (luckily, they were where I left them yesterday) and we entered the large hall, where the pool was. I heard a familiar voice behind me,

"Hey there, little bro!"

As I felt him kicking me, I opened my eyes, rubbed away the sleep, and yawned lazily,

"So, you're awake.."

"Um, yeah. Mind telling me what happened last night after I got drunk?" He blushed and quickly looked away, but I saw it and chuckled,

"Nothing happened, actually. You fell asleep on the bar and I asked a friend to cover me up, so I could get ya out of the club. But I didn't know where you live, so I brought you to my place." I smirked at him, hoping to hide my own blush. His face got a darker shade of red,

"Well, thank you, then. I don't know what brother would have said if he'd saw me in the condition I was last night.. He'd probably kicked me outta the house.."

"Is your brother that much of a bastard you make him sound like?" I riced a brow, but continued smirking. Poor Gray..

"In my opinion, yes. But if you ask his girlfriend, she'll tell you how awesome he is and stuff like that. And she's not that bad, actually. I don't really know how a good girl like her ended up with a bastard like big bro.."

Wait, WHAT? So he likes her? My smirk quickly disappeared and I nervously scratched the back of my head, as I always do when I was worried, nervous, or just not sure in something,

"So, you like his girlfriend?"

His eyes got wider with my question,

"Wha-NO! Of course not! She's just a friend, although, she gets a little annoying sometimes.. Why do you ask?"

Thank gods! I looked back at him, with my usual grin,

"Nah, you were just talking what a good girl she was and stuff like that, so I thought that you like her, that's all.."

He looked kinda disappointed. What the hell did I do wrong again? I looked worried in his eyes,

"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me as I've disappointed you with something?"

"Uh, it's nothing.. Don't worry about it.." He then looked at the clock, my gaze not leaving him. "Oh, I must be in the pool in 10 minutes. How far is your place from there?"

"5 minutes on feet." I got up from the bed, "Wanna get something for breakfast?" He blushed at my words, his usually pale skin now crimson,

"Mind if you come with me to the pool and we get breakfast on our way there?" What? Did he just- my face got almost as red as his was, but then I looked at the floor,

"I-I can't swim.."

"Don't worry." He chuckled. "You can watch me while I'm swimming!" Well, this sounds like a nice idea to me! I looked back at him smiling,

"I'd love to" I walked to my wardrobe, got the first shirt my hand touched and put it on. "Let's get going, I'm starving!" I grinned at him and he smiled at me with his honey-sweet smile. We walked out of my apartment, got some fast food on the way and entered the building, where the pool was. We walked to the dressing rooms, so he could change and we entered the large hall, where the pool was. I heard a voice behind him,

"Hey there, little bro!"

A/N: wow, I wrote this faster than I first thought I will... ;D It gets even more fun to write! Especially from Gray's point of view.. I'm sorry if they're a little OOC or something, but it's really hard keeping their original behavior when the story has nothing to do with the original story plot of Fairy Tail ... Sorry once again for the grammar mistakes... I'll try to get the story done before Christmas, but who knows... I'll be really exhausted when we start school and I won't have any free time, so I'll try my best, I promise! .. keep writing reviews, I can change something if you don't like it! :D
