I recently read this story "The Italian's Stolen Bride" by Emma Darcy suggested by one of the Graylu Fans here BelieverInMusic. I guess I'll be making changes and name of this story "Gray's Stolen Bride By the Other Man" XD I'm just jokin'

Chapter 12

The "Sick" Plan Part I

The magnificent building of the Fairy Tail Guild Company stood deadly quiet, toweringly tall and goddamn powerful over the whole town of Fiore. The silver-glass building represented so much power, money and influence that it was a wonder why Little Miss Lucy Heartfilia hadn't even fainted yet!

Night continued to tick by as Lucy, the twins and Gray stood staring at each other intently. So many thoughts buzzed through their minds, but no one uttered anything… not a single word… not a single – oops...

"Are you going to tell me what happened to you?" Lucy demanded, but you could tell that she was deeply worried. Who wouldn't be worried after receiving a frightening call from Gray in the middle of her lunch "date" with "Stinky" man.

"You mean, what's wrong with me?" Gray corrected, as they were all ushered into his grand and expensive to the bone bachelor apartment. "Not what happened…."

"That's not the point!" Lucy turned around to face him with a fierce look of concern. 'Oh, man….' Gray's breath caught short and he simply stared down at her upturned face. 'So, just – so close to me. Lucy...' He thought achingly, while he continued to stare and stare….

"Ummm….Ano - Gray? Are you okay?" Goosebumps erupted across Lucy's tensed body, a sudden shiver of delight zipped up her stiff spine with electricity and her cheeks bloomed with a rosy blush. 'Stupid body responses! After all these years, Gray is still the one. No Lucy! He left you! He betrayed our love!'

Drowsily, Gray stared. 'Crap.' He instantly felt weak and swayed a bit forward, that Lucy had to stretched out her arms in fast action to steady him. "Ano, seriously what's wrong?" She forgot about her current responding state and her rule about 'touching'.

But Gray couldn't answer. His thoughts were thinking about something completely different. 'She looks so sexy…!' He felt hot! 'God, why does she haunt me so much?' Really, really hot! 'Damn, those lips… those pouting pink lips….'Really, really, really hot! 'I want to kiss them so much… like I did on Sunday… mmm, Sunday, Sunday – '

" – and, ano…?" Lucy questioned. 'He must be really out of it!' She slowly walked backwards to the living room. "Walk before you drop!" Gray's legs slowly began to move. "Grey, take your brother and get a glass of cold water for your Daddy please?"

"Hai Mummy!" Grey grabbed Grayson's hand and led him to the kitchen to fetch some water for his Daddy Gray.

Lucy aimed for the sofa as she walked backwards, pulling Gray with her. 'Come on, come on! He can't faint on me now! He's flippin' heavy!' She smiled brightly when she was just about to put Gray down on the sofa when – "Watch out!"

"Nani?" Lucy cried, pushing Gray onto the cushions and fell onto the carpeted floor. "Itai…!" Lucy winced as she looked up, massaging her nose. 'Owww… that hurt!'

"Mummy, Mummy – Grey spilled!" Grayson shouted excitedly, eyes dancing with mischief.

"Be quiet, Grayson." Grey growled, an angry pulse in his cheek. "It was an accident!"

"Don't worry! I'm coming, boys!" Lucy then turned to Gray, while rubbing her nose. "By the looks of you… yes, you! With those red, puffy eyes – that red running nose – " She gently laid a hand on his forehand, feeling the temperature – only Gray felt his temperature rocket high to the Heavens above from her touch! " – and oh my! This high of a temperature? Its no wonder you look absolutely horrible!"

'Absolutely horrible? Babe, you should see me on Monday mornings!' "So… I looked good when you last saw me?" Gray tactfully asked, eyeing Lucy hopefully.

"Well…." Considering the question and feeling uncomfortable at the same time, Lucy decided to answer it indirectly. "You didn't look as sick as the dead at least." Lucy turned towards the kitchen. "I'm going to get you some things to make you feel better, and help the boys with that water."

She began to walk away, but then spun round hearing Gray trying to get up. "No, no, no – you stay right there!" Lucy pushed him back on the sofa gently, and saw Gray pout up at her crossly. "Don't move." She commanded, and walked away – secretly smiling at his babyish pouting expression. 'He does look cute when he is ill… I wonder what he looks like when he is hot and aroused? – Stop it!'

Silence entered the living room, yet Gray could hear the twins talking animatedly with their mother – "Mummy, Grey is clumsy boy!" – while Lucy was doing whatever she was doing for him.

He sighed deeply, feeling pathetic, tired and brilliantly satisfied! 'The plan worked!' He smiled in a wolfish manner, suppressing a sneeze. 'Erza's plan actually worked…. who would have thought?' Gray thought with amazement. "For once." A lopsided smile plastered on his handsome, but paled face.

Gray outstretched his powerful arms and folded them behind his heavy dark head. He closed his sleepy eyes remembering that conversation before his best friends and family packed for Bosco….

~Flashback~

"And you Gray Fullbuster – " Jellal looked at me. "You need to get back on the phone, and win her over."

"I don't know how…." I whined, throwing myself on the coach and placed my bloody tensed arm over my eyes.

"But I do…." Erza spoke evilly, and smiled not so innocently. "I do…."

I looked at Erza, then at Jellal… and groaned. 'Oh shit….' Jellal sat down next to me and nudged my shoulder. "And the reason for that shoulder nudge is what, you freak?"

"Listen to the plan, you might learn a thing or two!" He responded, rolling his eyes. 'Is it me? Or does Jellal have a huge brain all of a sudden?'

"It's going to be… hard for you, Gray…." Erza said quietly, and sounded a bit creepy too.

"Hard for me…?" I asked feeling a bit unease, then brushed it off. "Erza, by now you should know that I would take on anything… even rejection…. No matter how many times Lucy will reject me, I won't just give up. I just loved her too much." I went silent, so did they… but –

"We know that." Jellal crossed his arms over his knees and rested on them. "But – but my wife is a Evil expert on these things, so let's just listen to the plan?"

"Evil?" Erza looked at Jellal with a puzzled frown. "What makes you say that Jellal, you old blue good for nothing?"

Jellal and me looked at each other, then shook our heads and sighed.

"Erza, baby, can't you call me something more… appealing? Like you sexy blue tiger, or something?" Jellal raised an eyebrow at her.

My eye's dotted and I looked at Jellal. "Sexy-blue-tiger?"

Jellal shrugged his shoulders. "Ya! sexy – which I am." I choked. "Blue – my favorite color plus a bonus for me having blue hair! Not to mention my wicked hair and eye color again." I silently agreed with that, except the 'wicked' part and the sexy part. "Tiger – because I like 'em and they are cool, strong and vicious! Like my wife in bed! hahhaha"

"Not to mention idiot." I arched a dark eyebrow and my dry, sarcastic tone got a laugh from Erza.

Jellal huffed. "Erza you traitor!"

Erza laughed more. "Whiny Baby Jellal!"

Jellal stood up, pouting. "You are mean." He sounded silly. "And Gray's not right!"

'Oh, shit – Jellal's lost it!' I joked with myself. 'Or was that actually true?'

"Yes, he is!" Erza poked a finger at Jellal's chest. "And I'm not mean!"

"Yes, you are! And he is not!" Jellal was about to poke back, but blushed lightly realizing where exactly he was just about to poke. So instead poked Erza's forehand.

"Yes, he is!" Erza poked harder. "And I am not!"

"Ow!" Jellal poked her forehand. "You are, he is not!"

"Gray is mean!" Erza poked Jellal's chest a few times, her brown eyes burning with fury. "And I am right!"

I sighed heavily. 'God, what a weird couple.'

"Gray is not mean!" Jellal poked back. "And you are wrong!"

'Man, did he just mix up his own words?' I thought lamely, looking at Jellal.

"Jellal!" Erza poked his forehand now. "You are the mean one!"

"Erza!" Jellal poked her lips, feeling turned on all of a sudden – they both already forgot about me – "You are the sexy one…."

"Jellal, me – sexy?" Erza blinked, poked and smiled, inching closer. "Me? Sexy?" She giggled in a girlish manner - blushing.

"Obviously, my darling…." Jellal cupped Erza's chin and brought his lips just a breath away from her lips… Erza closed her eyes in anticipation… and –

"Fernandeses!" I growled, a pulse beating in my cheek. 'I just love myself!' "Do you want me to puke?"

"Perfect timing." Jellal said sarcastically, pecking Erza's lips and seating himself next to me again. Erza, still blushing slightly, sat opposite both of us.

"Sorry." She said with some embarrassment. "Got a bit carried away…."

"No, we didn't – " Jellal spoke up.

" – anyway!" Erza cut him off. "The plan! Yes, the plan…."

"Is…?" I prompted.

"Is… to… to – " Erza smiled evilly all of a sudden, making me flinch. " – to get sick!"

My mouth dropped. My eyes widened. My hands slipped from behind my head.

"What the hell?!" I asked. "'To get sick?'"

"Exactly." Erza nodded, her scarlet hair bounced.

"Explain." Jellal and I said at the same time. 'I guess he is as confused as me.'

"Well… it is quite simple." Erza shrugged. "Just get sick."

"'Just get sick?'" I asked.

"Stop repeating my words Gray!" Erza rolled her eyes. "Yes, get sick." She smiled. "Then Lucy will come to you."

"Huh?" I asked dumbly. "Lucy will come to me – if I get sick? Am I the only one who is like, what - the - fuck Erza!?' Then suddenly a light bulb in my head, miraculously, switched on. "Oh…. oh! Ohhh!"

"Yes, that's the simple plan." Erza spoke excitedly. "If you sound like you are going to die any second and… somehow 'talk' to Lucy – she'll be racing to you before we can say 'get better soon'!"

'On Wednesday night… Lucy is going out with that bastard Sting guy, right? So… the plan is I could call her and set up something….' I thought quickly. 'And – '

"I know that look… what you thinking?" Jellal said slyly. Erza grinned evilly at me.

"Something that won't fail…." I replied. "Listen to this – "

~Back TO Reality~

A sound of a mobile ring tone vibrated through the air. Gray's line of thought got switched off, as he fished into his pockets and pulled out the shiny black communication device. "Gray speaking."

"Yo, Boss! Hibiki the Pretty Boy here speaking." Came the waiter's reply from the Super Express Restaurant.

Gray smiled. "Great job, Hibiki." He got up from the sofa and walked further away from the kitchen. 'If Lucy hears this… I'm dead meat.'

"No prob." Hibiki asked promptly. "Report, mate?"

"Make it a quickie." Gray said quietly. "Lucy is in the kitchen, and I feel like shit."

"Sick as a dog, eh? And here I thought you are so cold you would never ever get sick?" Hibiki chuckled into his phone. "Boss, I'm not your top and personal secret agent for nothing."

"I know, Hibiki – just you know my ass is on the line here." Gray sighed heavily and tiredly.

"Don't worry. Understood." Hibiki said lightly. "Anyway, your suspicions about Mr. Sting man were correct. I actually saw him and have evidence. So – "

"Wait a sec – " Gray said seriously. " – Hibiki, are you telling me that this Sting bastard is a womanizer – male slut – whoring asshole?"

"The worse kind, Boss." Hibiki explained. "I was already stationed in the restaurant when I saw him come in and head start to the bathrooms." Hibiki hesitated a bit. "I saw a – umm – woman with him there… and then I realize that the woman was a… a – "

" Prostitute." Gray answered, disgusted. "Detestable bastard, right – you mentioned evidence?"

"Ah." Hibiki went blank for a second. "Evidence? Oh, shit yea." He laughed. "Security cameras caught him, and even our own hidden cameras caught him and took pictures of him."

"Excellent." Gray said with grand satisfaction.

"He was completely caught red handed, Boss." Hibiki concluded there. But continued on a more personal subject. "Lucy still loves you Gray, but I just wander sometimes, don't you think this plan is going to fail though? I mean your mother, sisters and Juvia also had this "typed" of evidence shown to you and it was believable."

"I – I…." Gray felt his heart constrict with emotion.

"Anyways, I saw it. I felt it. I knew that Lucy still loves you." Hibiki said gently.

"And your twins are a spitting image of you, do you know that?" He laughed warmly. "I just remembered their little nickname for Sting, hahhaha Stinky man. I was about to take orders from the little tots too!"

Gray smiled with pleasure. 'Spitting image of me…my little tots.' "Thank you, Hibiki. And you probably will need to take orders from them soon." Gray gave a small snicker.

"Oh, great. Just what I need – little Fullbuster tots telling me to buy them candy or something." Hibiki joked. "Like I don't get enough of that from my own little tot."

"How are your little one, and your wife?" Gray asked. "Maybe one day – soon – Grey, Grayson and Lucy could meet them?"

"Sure thing, Boss. We'd love that." Hibiki smiled. "My little one is brilliant, happy like sunshine since she now knows that her mother is having a baby."

"Pregnant? Again?" Gray said cheerfully with astonishment. "Congratulations!" He smirked. "You've been busy!"

Hibiki blushed. "Jenny's fault, not mine."

Gray laughed deeply. "Oh, blame the wife why don't chu."

"Damn right." Hibiki said with a nod. "Asuka is curious about how exactly her Mummy got pregnant. The famous question came up last night."

"No kidding, mate." Gray joked. "The boys asked me and Lucy on Sunday. We were speechless!"

Hibiki grinned. "Same here."

Gray heard a voice. "Daddy!" A call from the kitchen. "Water is waiting!"

"Ah!" Gray hesitated. "Ah, just a second!"

"Boss, run!" Hibiki said smiling. "You little tot is calling you."

"Thanks, mate." Gray said quietly. "And thanks for everything."

"Hey, no problem." Hibiki replied. "Do you want me to meet you? I have the evidence and things to show and tell you. Jellal's stuff included – he contacted me a few hours ago."

Gray considered for a moment before answering. "Yes, but at the office – Monday – at any time."

"My thoughts exactly." Hibiki murmured. "Right, better go before Jenny throws me a punch to outer space for being late." He chuckled.

"Erk, watch out – tell her it's my fault. Thanks, Hibiki." Gray felt happy. 'What a great friend.'

"No worries. Later, Gray." Hibiki cut the line.

Gray stared at his iphone before pushing it back into his pocket. He sighed, looking out from his window, frowning. "If it wasn't for Hibiki… I would have lost my…."

"Lost your what?" Lucy said curiously. She was standing a little way behind him, a glass of cold water and some medication in her hands.

"Nothing." Gray said quietly, erasing his thoughts. He looked at what Lucy had brought for him. "Is that for me?"

"Yes… here." Lucy gave him the glass, and placed the two pills into his hand. But she was still thinking about what he said before. "It's for pain relief and that horrible cold you've caught."

Lucy smiled sadly, while Gray drank down his medication and water. She watched his strong throat gulped in pain and felt the urge to kiss it better. 'Kiss him better….' "I've never seen you ill before…."

"Nani?" The twins cried as they were quietly watching the whole 'exchange' between their parents. Then they came rushing forward and grabbed their father's legs.

"No! Daddy not ill, he fine!" Gray's trousers muffled their cries. He handed Lucy the empty glass. Kawaii ( ≥/^/≤ )

Gray then smiled down at his twins and whispered their names. The identical boys looked up and Gray felt a surge of fatherly love and protection engulf him.

Somehow – God knows – he found the strength to bent down and pick up his adorable twins into his strong arms. Grey and Grayson instantly laughed with joy and hugged their father tightly, throwing their small arms around his neck. "Daddy's fine." They said tiredly, and rested their heads against Gray's robust shoulders… falling asleep.

"Let's take them to their room…." Gray said gently as he felt his twins relax completely in his embrace.

"Their room…?" Lucy quietly followed Gray, worried about him yet curious of what he could have meant. 'Their room? What does he – hello!' She gasped loudly, flinging a hand to her mouth in surprise. "Oh my Goodness!" Lucy looked at Gray with wide chocolate brown eyes open. "Their – our twin's room?"

Gray smiled charmingly at her and nodded. 'She did it again… our twins….' He walked to the bed and carefully laid both cute boys down to sleep. 'They must be exhausted… lord, so am I….'

Gray immediately backed away from the bed like it was contagious or something, and fell into a chair with a thud. "Hell and Damnation!"

"Oh, dear…." Lucy went to Gray first, and grabbed his broad shoulders. She felt a rosy blush color her cheeks but she ignored it. "Are you alright?" He didn't answer, but groaned. Lucy bent down to Gray's eye level. "Tell me, Fullbuster-san."

Gray frowned angrily. "I hate it when you call me by my second name." He breathed in a deadly controlled voice. "And I won't tell you – well, not until you call me Gray."

Lucy let him go in shock. He stared at her with his hard eyes darkening… his willpower draining as he bloody wished for Lucy to call him Gray. "You said my name when I kissed you for the first time in six years on Sunday…."

"No… no! I did – not!" She lied lamely in embarrassment.

Gray arched a dark brow as he stood up. "No…?" He then flung out his strong arms, wound them around Lucy's curvy waist, heard her take in a startled gasp and pulled her snugly against him. "Really…? Should I try again?"

'Hell yes!' Lucy screamed in her mind, but her cute mouth spat something else. "Hell no!" And she snatched herself away from him and zoomed to the twin's bedside.

Gray stood there, stunned. 'How can she just – God, help me!'

"I – I need to change the twins." Lucy knelt down and pulled Grey close to her. "But I don't have any – "

"Don't worry – pajamas right?" Gray walked tiredly to a huge Pokémon walk-in wardrobe and came back with cute Mew pajamas. The pajamas were light blue. Printed silvery white clouds were everywhere with a big pink embroidered Mew floating on the back. "Here… they are specially made for our twins…."

Lucy couldn't say a word. One side of her wanted to scream in protest, but the other side wanted to thank him dearly for providing more comfortable clothes for the twins to sleep in.

So out came a small – "Arigatou." And Lucy began to dress the sleepy twins. But since this is a unusual family we gotta add something wrong to happen, ne… hhahahhahaha?

"Mummy… me sleepy, stop it." Grayson mumbled.

"Grayson, give me a minute." Lucy said softly.

"No, Mummy…." He buried himself in the covers.

"Please Grayson, just changed your trousers." Lucy cooed.

"Stop it, Mummy!" Grayson said crossly. "I don't like – "

"Enough." Came a deep and hard voice as Gray gently took the trousers from Lucy and went to his son. "Apologize to your Mummy now."

Grayson stared at Gray in shock and confusion. He didn't understand… no one ever spoke like that to him before… but deep down he couldn't fight it and frankly didn't want to… his Daddy was upset with him, he could feel it.

Pink flooded into Grayson's cheeks as well as tears in his eyes. "I'm sorry, Mummy." He felt sad, and shy again.

"Oh, I – " Lucy was about to embrace her son, but Gray stopped her.

"Could you help me with his trousers?" He inserted instead.

"I – yes." Lucy blinked and bent down to help Gray, feeling strange. Both of them got Grayson's trousers on in a flash. Gray smiled at Grayson caringly. "Was that so hard?"

"No." Grayson hid his face away, but Gray cupped his small chin and turned it to him. Grayson blushed again from shyness.

"Go to sleep now." Gray kissed Grayson's forehead and slowly tucked him in.

"Mummy… can I have milk?" Grey was already sitting up and staring at his family. He didn't know what was going on. "Please?"

Grey stared at his boys incredibly. 'How in God's name did she cope all these years? Gotta hand it to Lucy, she's amazing with taking care of our twins all by herself.'

"Ummm… yes… I'll go and get it." Lucy turned to the door. "Grayson, do you want some?"

Grayson gave a small nod and looked away. "Please."

Lucy sighed and shrugged her feminine shoulders. "Come on… out of bed and come with me."

Grey and Grayson immediately jumped up and scrambled to their Mother, both of them wanting to be picked up. "Are you coming?" Lucy gestured to the kitchen, and picked up Grey first.

"Oh, what?" Gray was lost in thought and then it kicked in, seeing Lucy looked down at Grayson and wanting to pick him up too. "Yep. Grayson, come here." Grayson slowly walked to his Father. He also looked back at Lucy shyly.

But then he nearly jumped out of his skin when his Daddy threw him up into his powerful arms. "Better?" Gray folded his arms more securely around the startled little boy. "Lets get that milk then."

The four made their way to the kitchen. Gray dimmed the lights. It was a very modern and simple kitchen. Black, white and blue were the colours that splashed around the place.

"Could you set them down, while I get the milk?" Lucy asked quietly. What happened between them in the twin's room was not forgotten, but put on hold – Gray's dark eyes glittered down and told her so…. 'Forget it.' Her eyes dismissed him.

"Hai, do you want some honey with the milk?" Gray asked settling Grayson onto a stool and ruffling his dark hair. Then he walked up to Lucy and stared down at her.

"Honey…?" Lucy thought absent-mindedly, falling into a trance under his heart melting gaze. 'His eyes… navy blue eyes… are like the color of the vast sky…. ocean, icy eyes yet warm.' "Honey…? Mmm… yes, I want some honey… lots and lots of honey, just tons of honey…." She whispered.

The world felt so good… so wonderful… and Lucy snapped! 'Nani?' Grasping and turning red, she choked out. "I mean – " She coughed. "Hai – " And coughed again. " – yes, please. Honey would be fine with – you – I mean – the milk… the milk!" Lucy blinked and blushed. 'What the hell is wrong with me?'

'Honey…?' Gray thought with a secret smile in his mind. 'Honey…? I wonder….' "Its over there in the cupboard. Right there in – "

"Hai, thanks – here's Grey!" Lucy pushed Grey into Gray's arms and literally run it to the cupboard. 'Oh, my goodness! What – what happened there?'

"Err…ok?" Gray stood there, baffled. 'What just happened there… happened back in the twin's room… she is fighting me.' He sighed deep in regret. 'Curse the past.'

Grey pulled Gray's nose and started laughing. "I got your nose! I got your nose, Daddy!" Grey's small thumb was sticking out of his enclosed hand.

'Okay, not everything in the past… especially not the twins! At least Fate brought me back to them.' Gray thought as he chuckled huskily and planted Grey onto the chair next to Grayson. "Aw, man! Yes, you do sport! But – " Gray pulled softly his sons noses. " – now I got your noses too!" Gray swiftly went out of the kitchen. "Ha, ha, ha! Catch me if you can!" He stuck out his tongue and wiggled it at his twins.

"Matte!" Grayson and Grey shouted as they ran after their Father, who was currently sitting on the sofa, laughing with his thumbs tucked behind him. "We will get you, Dad!"

Lucy was completely surprised and confused. She secretly glanced at Gray when Grey grabbed his nose and laughed, then she turned and watched the whole scene of Gray's teasing nature with the boys. 'Ano… where does he get the energy from? Isn't he sick?' She turned back to the fridge. 'Even when he is… well, not looking one hundred percent? I know he is ill… but how ill is he?'

"Luce! Save me!" The man himself zapped into the kitchen. Grabbed her by the waist and swung her around so she stood in front of him, and he dropped to his knees and hugged her to him.

His face was buried at the end of her back, and she felt him press his lips there. "Ah - ah?" Lucy tried to pull away, but Gray's hold became tighter. His powerful arms wrapped around her waist and didn't want to let go.

"Mummy, Daddy took our noses!" The twins finally made their way to the kitchen, panting. Grey had his small hands on his knees as he panted for breath and looked at his parents.

Grayson was pointing at Gray, who was trying to hide behind Lucy from his son's pointy finger. "Daddy, we know you are behind Mummy!" His happy nature returned and little mister shy guy disappeared.

Grey stood up. "Come out, you big baby!" He smirked smugly and crossed his arms over his chest. He looked cool.

"Yea, what Onii-chan said!" Grayson smiled funnily and mimicked his bigger brother's action. "Everyone knows if a boy hides behind a girl – well, Mummy then he is a big crier baby!" The twins laughed.

Gray smiled in manly satisfaction. He wanted to stand up and face the twins, but his current position demanded more attention. Especially since it was Lucy. The mother to their twins

"Ano…." Lucy looked at the boys pleadingly. "Boys, help me." She decided to play along, and felt Gray smile before pressing another kiss to her back. "Oh!"

"Your Mummy is my prisoner!" Gray said in a deep voice. "If you try to get her, I will kiss her!" Gray peeped at his twins, and laughed like a pirate.

"Kiss Mummy?" The twins looked at each other, and grimaced. "Ew!"

Gray stood up, still holding a now blushing Lucy against to him. "Hey, I can kiss!"

"Ew!" The twins went out of the kitchen. "Daddy is a girl!"

"A girl?" Gray let go of Lucy and ran after his giggling children. "What do you mean – a girl?"

Lucy was yet again, baffled. "This is so weird."

After a few minutes wandering around the kitchen, fetching everything she needed for the twins milk… Lucy turned around with milk in hand to find the twins and Gray sitting on the stools, looking at her.

"We're tired." Gray spoke quietly. "And they called me a girl six times." He whined, pouting.

Grey and Grayson giggled sleepily, smiling. Grayson spoke first, explaining. "He ran after us, Mummy." Then Grey spoke. "And caught us quickly." Grayson took over. "And kiss our cheeks and heads." The twins looked at each other. "Yucky!"

"Its not yucky!" Gray said childishly. "I am your Daddy. As a Daddy I have to right to kiss my sons." He stood up and bent down in front of them. "I love you, and I love to give you kisses." Gray pressed his lips to Grey's forehead then Grayson's. "See?"

"Ew!" The boys laughed. "Daddy's a girl!"

"I'm not!" Gray whined again. "Tell them, Lucy!"

Lucy only smiled. "A girl, huh?" 'Yea, right.' "I can't agree with you there, boys."

"Aw, Okaa-san!" Grey groaned. "We were joking!"

Lucy laughed. "Here, take your milk now." She handed Grey a glass, then Grayson and sat down next to them. Gray was still bending in front of his twins, but his eyes wandered to Lucy… seeing her watching their children without blinking. 'What's going through her mind? What is she thinking?'

Gone was the milk in a few short minutes, and then the boys definitely were falling asleep. 'The hot honey milk did the trick.' Gray thought with a smile as he picked up Grayson in his arms.

Lucy followed suit and the parents carried their little ones to the bedroom. Slipping the small bodies into between the bed and covers, the young adults tucked in their children and softly kissed their foreheads.

Gray looked at Lucy, who was looking at their sleeping angels. He was taking in everything he could see… her beautiful face, luxurious full lips, chocolate brown eyes, a cute button nose, small and neat ears, and her gorgeous long blonde hair…. 'She is so beautiful… so angelic….'

Lucy sighed softly, closing her eyes momentarily. 'They must be so tired. I want to go to bed too. I'll ask Gray….' Then turned to look at the man himself and froze.

"No, no – I – " But her weak protests where smashed down when Gray pulled her against him and crushed his hard lips to her soft ones…. 'No… Gray please stop….'

Lucy tried to pull away, but she felt that she couldn't. Her body went weak, her thought shattered to nowhere, her lips softened and moved with Gray's in a growing passionate kiss that took their breath away. 'Yes… yes, God… yes….'

Gray felt his remaining strength broke away from him once he had the woman of his dreams in his arms again. How he ached for her, craved for her, longed for her, wished, hoped and prayed for her to be here… in his arms… only in his arms… forever…. No other man trying to claim her. Only His

"Lucy…." Gray moaned quietly against her mouth, as he placed her on the sofa in his stylish living room. How he carried her from the twin's bedroom to the living room – he didn't know – all he knew was here and now… here, right here in her arms… close to her body… kissing her lips… moaning her name… engraving this blessed moment in his memory for life… then slowly, slowly –

Actually rather quickly it was all over! Because when Lucy felt a huge hardness push against her – she instantly remembered herself and ripped away. 'No! No, no!' Lucy swung away from Gray, cheeks burning like molten lava. 'I promised myself not to let that happen again!'

"Lucy…." Gray's groaned in a hoarse voice, as he fell back flat against the sofa, feeling faint. "I – "

"Don't say a word!" Lucy whispered shakily, as she knelt down beside him.

"I… will never regret… kiss – kissing you!" Gray said half-heartedly in anger. And he closed his eyes. 'Oh, damn you fucking flu! And damn you, stupid beep of mine!'

"…." Lucy remained quiet. Her pulse rate was not slowing down, the intense heat inside her body burned her skin, her lips were swollen and the chocolate brown eyes Gray fell in love with, were dark and glowing like molten reddish-brown.

"Lucy… please…." Gray said pleadingly. "Please don't leave – "

"Please don't talk." Lucy interrupted, fighting her emotions and bodily responses. "You're ill. Just rest." She stood up abruptly and started walking away. 'I got to get him something… to help him get better. But I need some distance – no, a lot.'

Gray felt his heart pounding… suddenly an old fear burst inside of him, scaring him, weakening him…. 'She is walking away… she can't! No, I won't let her!'

Lucy didn't know what happened next, all she knew was that her hand was firmly clasped in Gray's. He was breathing heavily. "Please don't leave me." Gray choked out. "Don't walk away."

Lucy was too stunned and tired for words. She felt Gray's hand tighten on hers, felt him refusing to let her go…. 'Why?' Lucy felt tears filling her eyes. "Why?" She whispered.

"I – I…." Gray hesitated. 'I can't tell her yet… not yet….'

"I was just going to the kitchen…." Lucy spoke calmly, yet she was anything but calm.

"Even so… take me with you." Gray's dark eyes glittered and Lucy could have sworn; she saw painful tears threatening to fall – her beating heart clenched.

"Hai…." Slowly Lucy turned towards the kitchen, and walked forward but Gray's hand held her back. "Nani?" She whispered softly.

"Call me Gray… please?" He looked straight into her eyes, his tall height made him looked down at her directly.

"I don't… know… I don't…." Lucy couldn't think, with her hand still in contact with his – God, she could even forget who she was!

"Please Luce. I miss you so damn much." Gray tightened his hold, if that was possible and his eyes stared deep into hers. "Luce…."

"Gray…." Lucy heard herself whisper. 'I can't stop myself.' "Gray…." She whispered lightly. "Gray…." It felt so good, so right… to hear his name coming from her lips….

Gray closed the space between them, and once again… let his lips cover hers… the kiss was gentle, and very tender… Gray coaxed Lucy's lips to move with his slowly, softly, and seductively….

"Oh…." Lucy moaned, suddenly curling her arms around Gray's smooth neck. She held him tight, pushing her body snugly against his… she felt his hard body and longed to feel him all over… his heated skin, his gorgeous hair, his sexy lips, his hard muscles, and… and….

Gray couldn't think – he couldn't take it anymore!

He wanted Lucy.

Wanted her like never before, longed to be a part of her again – but this time – forever.

Gray urgently broke the heated kiss that was now consuming both of them. He scooped Lucy up into his powerful arms and started to walk in the direction of the bedroom….

'The plan worked.'

And I must agree with her that the story is a COMPLETE replica of this story, except the hero and heroine didn't have twins plus there's not much talking though. Thanks to BelieverInMusic, I believe this story will not go on HIATUS mode, Yay! Since I'm on MY SPRING BREAK and not in the HOSPITAL, I believe I won't be leaving you guys for so long~ I'm so sorry for the late update though~ I'm also gonna start editing Fairy Tail Gang Love, Please look forward for that"
