Girls: Just shut up… -_-
Masanori: *sigh*
*OCC BOYS INCLUDED!*
~Chapter 2: Boys, Girls, and Not so Friendly Friendships
*Natsu POV
"And where do you two think you're going?"
Shit… The scarlet haired she-devil was standing right behind Gray and I. She had a hand on our shoulders and I looked over at her. I raised a hand to give her a small wave.
"Yo, Erza, how's it goin?" I grinned, although I was irritated. Erza was always messing with us. I wish she wasn't in my 'sorta friends' category. She'd actually make a cute girl if she wasn't so… damn creepy and evil.
"Urasai, I know you two were about to skip." She glared and I bit my lip. Gray reached into his pocket. He pulled out a peppermint and handed it to her.
"Congratulations, you've earned a prize for getting the correct answer!" Gray cheered sarcastically. Erza growled at him, but popped the candy into her mouth.
"You two are hopeless. Do your parents even try to stop you from doing the things you do?" Erza complained, making Gray and I exchange glances.
"My parents could care less." Gray shrugged. "They don't care about me anyways."
"I never listen to my parents so…" I trailed off, rolling my eyes. Erza was always asking about our parents and it really ticked me off. The bitch should stop being so nosy.
Erza put her hand on her hip. She held her bag beside her and sighed. "You two should change your ways. Making new friends could help you."
I broke out into a dark laugh. "Yeah, like that's gonna happen. I love the way I am."
"Ditto my friend, besides, Natsu, Gajeel, Masanori, and Laxus are all I need." Gray flicked a quarter into the air and caught it. I turned to him and asked for a peppermint. Erza sighed and crossed her arms.
"I wish there were a way to change all 4 of them… But how?" Erza wondered aloud and then a thought came to her head. She smiled evilly, thinking about her closest friends…
*Gray POV
"Oi, Fullbuster, we need to talk!"
I closed my locker and turned to the familiar voice.
"Hey there Bora, did you come back for another ass kicking?" I smirked, dropping my bag and putting my hands in my pockets. A girl with orange hair hid behind Bora, wiping her eyes. Natsu blinked at me and I kicked my bag towards him.
"Hold that for me would ya Natsu?" I smiled and he nodded, picking it up and standing off to the side. The others in the hall stood to the sides and the girl behind Bora held onto his shirt.
"Bora, let's just go." She whispered as I kept walking towards them. "I don't want you getting into any scary scrapes."
"No wait Nanami." He said, keeping his eyes on me. "I'm gonna pay this bastard back for what he did to you."
I stopped a few steps away from Bora and sighed, shaking my head. "What do you want now Bora?"
"How dare you!" Bora spat and I glared at him. The others in the hall held their breath or took out cameras. "You rejected Nanami's love confession! You know how much she loves you and you just told her off!"
"Tch, am I supposed to be nice about it?" I chuckled, looking at the girl behind him. "She's not my type. Leave me alone about it."
"B-Bora, let's just leave already!" Nanami begged and Bora began to debate with her. I watched and began to laugh. I could see Masanori and Laxus walk around the corner and stop behind Natsu. They looked at the crowd of silent teens. Bora and Nanami stopped fighting as I kept laughing.
"What's going on here?" Laxus asked Natsu. "Is Gray about to fight someone?"
"Let's hope so!" Natsu grinned. "I haven't seen Gray fight anyone in 2 days!"
"Oh, it's that punk Bora again. He will never learn." Masanori yawned and Laxus nodded. I stopped laughing and looked at Bora, wiping the tears out of my eyes.
"You're so pathetic it makes me laugh! You're trying to stand up for some girl and you couldn't even lay a finger on me last time we fought!" I took deep breaths and Bora growled at me.
"Fine, let's fight right here and right now!" Bora challenged and I looked at him seriously. All the cameras really went up now. "If I win, you say sorry to Nanami."
"Deal and I'll even throw in a handicap for you." I smirked and put my hands in my jean pockets. "I'll fight you without my hands."
Bora ran right towards me and raised a fist. I ducked down and tripped him over. Bora started to fall down and I kicked his side. I jumped up and kicked his cheek, making him stumble back on the wall. I landed on the ground gracefully and he looked up at me from the ground.
"Do you want round two?" I asked and he growled at me. He jumped up and I spun out of the way. He nearly tripped and I kicked his back, causing him to fall into the trash can headfirst. I took my hands out my pocket and smirked, closing my eyes.
"Do you need another handicap?" I teased and Bora stood up.
"Quit playing around and fight me seriously!" Bora demanded and I smiled.
"Now if I did that you'd die." I grinned and he grabbed my ankle. He pulled me onto the ground and punched my cheek. Everyone gasped and I blinked at him.
"Oh look, you hit me, about time." I jumped up and kicked him right in the face. He groaned and I stood on his back. He looked up at me and I slammed my foot on his head. He growled and I smiled at him as I bent down.
"Did I break that big nose of yours Bora-san? Gomen." I joked and I got off of him. I looked at him as he sat himself up against the wall. I took my hands out of my pockets and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt. I lifted him off his feet and he took this chance to swing a punch. I dropped him and did a back flip to dodge.
"So you're going to round 3 and the handicap is gone." I gave him a glare and began to unbutton my shirt. "Better make sure your mom is on speed dial."
I threw my shirt at Laxus and he caught it, but made a XP face. Natsu grinned, knowing I was about to finish this retard.
Bora kicked my ankle and I grabbed his arm, taking him down with me. I shot back up, kicking his shoulder. I picked him up by his arm and punched his cheek with all my power. He slid down the hall and into a few trash cans. People screamed and dodged as I ran towards him. I yanked him out the trash and wrapped a hand around his throat.
"I should kill you Bora." I hissed. "However, I think I already took out the trash."
"B-Bastard, y-you wouldn't…" He spoke, trying to get my hand away from his neck. I gripped harder and raised a fist into the air.
I was about to swing down, but someone grabbed my wrist. I blinked and looked at the familiar black hair.
"Oi, calm down stripper and put on a shirt." Gajeel said, dropping my hand. I let Bora go and stood up, popping my knuckles.
"That was a good stress reliever." I said, snatching my shirt from Laxus. "I think that was his final lesson wouldn't ya say?"
"Come on, we should go before some teachers pop up." Natsu said, walking out the school. The rest followed and I went out last. I took one last look at everyone and waved a hand.
"See ya tomorrow, bitches!"
I jumped into the convertible and Laxus zoomed down the street. Masanori sat in the front while I sat with Natsu and Gajeel in the backseat.
"You didn't hit him hard enough." Gajeel pouted. "He was still breathing."
"I didn't want to kill him, not yet anyways." I leaned the seat back and Natsu laughed at me.
"When you kill him, I don't wanna miss it. You should've seen everyone's faces when you said the handicap thing!" Natsu grinned and I smiled at him. "Their jaws dropped and they were freaking out!"
"You think that was bad?" Laxus chuckled. "All the girls nearly died and went to heaven when you threw your shirt off."
"You're just mad cuz I'm sexy." I teased and Laxus rolled his eyes. "See, I leave you speechless!"
"Yeah, your stupidity leaves me speechless." Laxus retorted and I glared at him.
"Watch yourself Dreyer." I warned him and he laughed. Natsu chuckled and Gajeel grinned.
"So Gray, when was your last girlfriend?" I heard Natsu ask and I turned to him, giving him a -_- look.
"When was your last girlfriend Natsu?" I asked him harshly and he grinned.
"I asked you first, don't avoid my question. You're making me think you're gay."
"I'm as straight as this fist about to go to your face."
"Damn, I'm just asking a question, bastard!"
"I don't like anyone, now do you like anyone?!"
Natsu paused a bit before answering "Nope, there aren't that many cute girls at our school. Half of them are about as flat as paper."
Gajeel and I sweat dropped; Natsu was such a pervert…
I got out of the car and stretched out. Gajeel was laughing with Natsu about a joke and Masanori was talking to Laxus about which stores in the mall they wanted to go to. I buttoned up the rest of my shirt except for the last three buttons.
I then noticed someone walking by. I found myself staring at her as she walked down the path towards the mall. A car sped around the corner and was heading straight for her. I gasped as I ran towards her. The guys called my name as I ran full speed towards her. I tackled her to the sidewalk and the car went by. I landed in the grass and held the girl close to my chest. A thorn scratched my left cheek and I coughed as the car smoke went into the air.
"Gray, are you okay?!" I heard Laxus call as my friends ran over. I sat up, holding the girl in my lap.
"Y-Yeah, I'm fine." I felt blood drip from my cheek and onto my hand. A voice whispered and I looked at the girl. She had blue hair with curls. She wore a black mini skirt and a white shirt with a jean jacket. She had white, almost pale, skin and her eyes were a pretty blue and she had a pink parasol in her hand.
"Um…" She looked away and a tic popped over my head. I pushed her off of me and stood up as she rubbed her butt.
"Baka, what the hell is wrong with you?!" I shouted at her. "Who just walks in the street like that? Keep your ass on the sidewalk!"
The girl looked up at me and pouted. "I was going to say thank you but-" she jabbed her finger into my chest, making me back up a bit with wide eyes. "You are a rude man! I can't believe I was saved by you!"
I growled at her and ran a hand through my hair. "I just saved you bitch! You owe me your life!"
"Yeah, whatever, who do you think you are?!" She hissed and I turned my head away. This chick was one tough bitch.
"I'm Gray Fullbuster, the guy who just saved your sorry ass." I crossed my arms and turned away from her. "Now I'm leaving."
I started to walk away and I paused as she spoke up.
"I'm Juvia Lockser, arigatou (thank you) for saving me, Gray-sama." She pouted and looked away, a bit of pink coating her cheeks. I paused as I watched her walk away. She was so different from other girls…
She wasn't afraid to stand up to me like other girls… She even thanked me when I was being a douchebag to her…
"Juvia huh?" I smirked to myself and I heard Gajeel snicker.
"Gray's blushing…" Gajeel smirked and I felt my cheeks. I was burning up! I turned to him and punched his arm.
"Urasai, no one asked you!" I shouted and Natsu looked at Juvia, who stopped to talk to someone.
"Do you like her?" Natsu asked and I nearly died. Normally, I'd laugh and cuss them out, but this chick was weird…
"Why would I like a bitch like her?!" I said, grinning. "Let's just go so I can get this over with."
"Whatever you say, hero." Laxus teased. "I can't believe you saved a girl."
I blinked and smirked.
"I can't believe I did either…"
I got another good chapter out!
I'm so proud of myself *dies*

Natsu: Don't forget to review and vote!
Gray: Yeah, whatever…
Sky: You two need to leave -_-
Gray: Ain't gotta tell me twice.
