Gray's eyes widened as he saw the scene in front of him. Natsu was bent over, tears streaming down his cheeks, his body slammed up against the damp tiles and Sting behind him about to enter the trembling pinknette.
"Get off him!" the ice mage screamed
The blonde moved his hand from Natsu's mouth, before Sting could speak the ice mage had grabbed him around the neck.
"Ha-ha, I didn't know something as small as this could wind you up so much Gray" Sting laughed
The raven haired teen spun around, throwing Sting out of the shower, the blonde went flying to the floor, pulling the green curtain down with him. Natsu slid down the tiles, his sobs filled the room, he curled up into a ball as Gray slowly walked over to Sting.
Sting turned, sitting up, he wiped his slightly cut cheek
"I told you, you belong to me" the blonde hissed
"I belong to no one other than Natsu" Gray growled before he leapt forward and punched the slayer in the face
Natsu sat trembling, his body unable to move. He buried his head in his arms as Gray repeatedly punched Sting, blood sprayed over the clean white tiles, it was clear the blonde was close to passing out.
"I warned you, no one, NO ONE TOUCHES NATSU, NO ONE!" Gray screamed and slammed his fists harder into Sting's face
Loke came running in along with Elfman and Makarov, the strawberry blonde slid to a stop as he saw the scene before him.
"Stop, Gray stop!" Makarov yelled but the raven haired teen was too angry to listen to the headmaster's voice
Loke raced over to Natsu, he quickly turned off the shower and wrapped his jacket over the slayers naked body. He wrapped his arms around the trembling pinknette; Elfman had begun restraining Gray while Makarov was now in the process of checking an unconscious Sting.
"I WARNED YOU, I FUCKING WARNED YOU!" Gray screamed trying to give the blonde another one of his deep punches
"Stop Gray this is truly not manly, calm your shit down" Elfman dragged the ice mage out the shower room
Loke lifted Natsu, the slayer sobbed into the teen's chest. The lion noticed the blood that trailed down the cheek of the slayers bottom; he bit his lip as he felt a great amount of guilt fill his heart.
Loke slowly carried Natsu out of the shower and into the side cubical that was private from the rest. Sting was lay unconscious on the wet tiles; a group of medics began surrounding him. Makarov's face was filled with concern and anger.
Loke decided to not say anything; he thought Sting deserved what he had got though Gray may have gone a little too far. He felt slightly relived that he had managed to talk with Gray about the kissing incident with Natsu or that might have been him on the shower room floor; he had no idea the ice mage could lose it like that.
The lion rested Natsu down on the large bench in the room; the pinknette wiped his eyes, his body still trembling. Once Loke was happy that Natsu was comfortable he wondered of back to the changing rooms to go and get the slayers clothes.
Natsu sat on his own; he gently pulled the jacket which was wrapped around his wet body. He sniffled as he stared at the plain walls, he wondered what would happen to Gray now, fights were always taken really serious, and Makarov had already permanently expelled three people this year because of petty arguments that had resulted in the students using their fists.
Natsu began crying once more as his heart pained with the thought that he might not ever see Gray again, he clutched the dark material in his hands as he gasped for air.
I can't, I can't go on without Gray, I need him, his my everything. If he gets expulsion what will I do? I hate Sting, I hate him, hate him
Loke walked back into the cubical, he had Natsu's clothes in his hands, he smiled and sat beside his friend. He pulled Natsu into a tight hug before slowly removing the now damp jacket; he wrapped the slayer in a large blue towel and gently dried him.
"I'm sorry for telling you to take a shower" Loke mumbled softly as he started drying the pinknette's hair
Natsu looked up, a few tears trailing down his flushed cheeks.
"I-It's not your fault"
"I feel like it is, if I hadn't suggested it none of this would have happened, you don't normally have a shower after practice"
"I chose to have a shower; Sting would have done it either way "the slayer looked down
"But I came back for you; I should have known you were in the shower"
Natsu shook his head; he wiped his eyes and looked back up at his friend
"You weren't to know, Sting must have planned it all. He could have ended up hurting you as well…"
Loke placed the towel on the floor before grabbing Natsu's shirt; he moved the slayer's pink hair to the side so as to look straight into the teen's perfect green eyes.
"I still should have done more, I wouldn't mind getting hurt for you Natsu, you mean a lot to me"
The slayer blushed slightly and put his head back down, he slowly nodded.
"Thank you it's nice to hear that you care so much about me"
Loke smiled and pulled Natsu's shirt over his head before helping him with the rest of his clothes.
"Do you hurt?" the lion asked
Natsu sat with his back against the wall as Loke helped him put on his socks, he nodded his head and gently bit his lip.
"Maybe you should get checked out?" Loke suggested
Natsu shook his head "No, I'll be alright, I don't want anyone to touch there"
Loke stopped half way through pulling on a sock; he stared at Natsu for a moment
"Did Sting take your virginity?"
"No, Gray got there just in time" Natsu turned his head as he felt another wave of tears come flooding to his eyes
Loke finished putting on the slayers sock and shoes before standing; he turned and offered his hand to Natsu. The pinknette looked at it but refused to take it, he gripped the wall for balance as he slowly stood up.
"Thank you Loke, you're a great friend" Natsu smiled as the pair made their way out of the private room
The strawberry blonde slowly followed his friend; he lightly bit his lip as he watched Natsu. It seemed no matter what happened the slayer would always love Gray, though the ice mage hadn't told Natsu he loved him it seemed the sweet pinknette would wait for however long it took for the ice mage to confess them special three words.
"Why can't I stop loving you" Loke whispered under his breath as he clutched the damp jacket which Natsu had been wearing.
