Chapter 8
x Natsu's POV x
After Lyon left, I went back to the kitchen and made another sandwich. I had to think of a way to help Gray (or myself? I wasn't really sure..) and the truth is, I think better with food. I sat on the table and started recalling everything that had happened from the first time I've met Gray in my head. I finished my sandwich and walked to the sink for a glass of water. I lifted the glass to my mouth to drink, but then the image of this morning's kiss popped in front of my vision. I dropped the glass, without realizing what I was doing, and the water spilled on the floor. My face quickly became crimson with the memory of Gray's lips on mine. It didn't matter the kiss lasted only a few seconds, the feeling was awesome and I realized that I would give anything to feel this again. I decided that I must go find Gray and speak with him. I wanted to sort out all the feelings we had for each other as fast and as soon as we could. I turned my head to the window and saw that it was going to start raining soon, so I put on my long black jeans and the dark red hoodie. Then I literally ran out of my apartment. I didn't know where Gray was, so I needed to find Lyon and ask him. I ran like two streets down the road and, luckily, found Lyon slowly walking his way home(probably?). I ran even faster and stopped him,
"Sorry, Lyon-san, but do you know where Gray is?"
He smirked,
"Do you know where the beach behind the cliff is?"
"Yeah."
"Well, Gray is probably there. He goes there when he's depressed or something's bothering him."
"Thanks, Lyon-san!" I quickly waved a goodbye and started running again..
x Gray's POV x
When I felt something wet on my face, I woke up only to find that it had started raining. I lifted myself on my hands and stared at the water, while the rain became heavier and heavier. When I woke up, I quickly forgot what I was dreaming about, but I was sure it was something about Natsu. And I couldn't explain why I dreamed about him..
But I didn't have more time to think over that, because someone called my name. I turned around, thinking I'll see Lyon, but I was surprised to see Natsu running in my direction. I got up and walked to him,
"What are you doing here, Natsu? It's raining really heavy and you're wet to the bones for sure."
He was breathing heavy,
"You're really not the one, who should talk about being wet to the bones, Gray. Look at yourself." He took off his red hoodie, showing his simple white t-shirt, that was already wet (ah, those abs!), and put the hoodie on me. I looked at him confused. "I need to speak with you, Gray. Come with me to a drier place." He took my hand and led me to the cave, which was hidden right under the cliff. While he was literally dragging me away, I just kept staring at him confused. He wants to speak with me? Is it about my actions this morning? Well, he doesn't look angry or something. I really hope he's not. Oh, shit, I fucked up everything again!
Once we were in the cave, we sat right before the entrance, staring at the rain outside. I was still in his hoodie, but, never mind it was wet, it kept me warm and it smelled like him, so I didn't want to remove it, yet. I was curious what did he wanted to speak with me about,
"So, you wanted to speak with me about something?"
Surprisingly for me, he blushed, his face becoming redder than his, now wet, pink hair, and turned his head away from me, so I couldn't see his face.
I, not knowing exactly why, remembered once again about the morning.
"Natsu, I'm really sorry about all the things I said and did this morning. You must know that I didn't mean anything from them. I deeply apologize about-" I stopped speaking when he turned his face to me. He was smiling again, with that sweet soft smile of his. I love your smile so much, Natsu. How can you be so cute?
"You don't have to apologize Gray."
Wait, what?
"But-"
He cut me off by crushing his lips over mine..
A/N: here's chapter 8.. sorry for it being so short, but i just don't have the time.. i'm in school from 6a.m. to 6p.m. .. so, yeah... anyway, hope ya like it.. Natsu is like a badass in this chap :D .. and Gray is like a cry-baby and I'm really sorry about that.. :D .. and, yeah, I'm awful for stoping the chapter at this point :P .. :D here, have from my fav biscuits (cocoanut blueberry biscuits) *gives you a biscuit* ^v^ ..
darkhuntressxir, I'm totally agree with you about Lyon being a really great bro. I made him like this on porpoise. He's my favorite character and I'm madly inlove with him, so I just couldn't bring myself to make him bad. At first, the idea was Lyon hating Gray and teasing him all the time for him liking Natsu. But, I just.. I don't see him like this. I think he's acting good with Gray all the time, because he is his big protective brother and he really loves him. ^v^
