"Huh?" Lucy asked. "What's NaLu and GraLu?"

"Well..." I hesitated, but thought it would be fun. "It's short for 'Natsu and Lucy' and 'Gray and Lucy'. People make fan fictions of you guys ending up together." I said with a straight face. Though I can tell by Lucy's expression and her pale face that she was shocked. Natsu and Gray just blinked a few times and shrugged it off.

"WHAT?" she exclaimed. "T-that can't be right! Where is this site?"

"I'll show you..." I said. I took her place and typed in the address. I could literally see smoke coming out of her ears and her nails dug through my wooden desk. She was very pissed off.

"Fan...fict...ion...dot...net..." I muttered while typing each syllable. Now we waited for it to finish loading...

Chapter 1:

Private Property

. ~...~ .

My P.O.V

As I sat back down my chair, Erza went over to my bed and sat there. Lucy was stroking Happy's fur while the latter purred in delight. Natsu and Gray kept themselves from bickering, because I warned them that if they destroy my things, I would have them arrested! Or at least torture them with their weaknesses. We were all waiting for the fanfiction site, til I saw it finished on the screen.

"It's finished, guys!" I called them. Everyone gathered round and stared at the screen. It was the normal format of the site; blue outlines, announcements, and advertisements. I sometimes wonder if they were all interested or just plain angry at the people writing stories about them, including me.

"Where are the stories?" Natsu asked innocently. Suddenly, an idea popped in my head. I smirked inwardly and decided to go with my plan.

"I have to search it from here." I said. "Let's see..." I clicked the the search option and appeared a blank page with the options of finding a story, an author, a community, or forums. I clicked on the blank tab. "Gray... and... Lucy..." I muttered, which caused the two to blush and look away from each other. I chuckled inside my head. I first thought of showing a fluffy NaLu fic to them, but I thought making Natsu realize his feelings and make him jealous would be more fun. I clicked the advanced settings and filtered the search engine for only Fairy Tail stories. I clicked 'search' and waited for the stories.

A few seconds later, more than 500 results appeared on the screen. I smirked, and then turned to the two.

"These are the stories that people write about Gray and Lucy." I said. "I want to read this to all of you. So you can get an idea on what kind of stories people write about you." I winked.

"What do you mean?" Lucy asked. I tapped my chin for a bit, then turned to the screen.

"Ah, here we go." I said. I clicked on a story link. "Here's an example. I'll read it, alright?" Everyone nodded and they leaned in to listen.

"Special Cure"

by IceLover012

Rate: K+

A/N: Hi! It's me, IceLover! I did a GraLu fic again! And oh, yeah. I don't own Fairy Tail! Anyways, enjoy~! ( Natsu: Do they always start like that? Me: Yes, now pipe down! )

In the city of Magnolia, a young woman with blonde hair could be heard sneezing in her apartment. The streets were dead silent. Awkaward and strange since it was only a bit late in the afternoon. With her, was a small, dog-like creature curled on her lap, lightly snoring.

"Haaa-" the blonde was about to sneeze again when she covered a finger to her nose. "That was close." she sighed. She looked outside of her window and sighed again.

"I won't be able to go to the guild today, huh Plue?" she asked the creature. Plue didn't answer since he was still asleep. Lucy, the Celestial Spirit Wizard of Fairy Tail, has gotten a cold. Probably because Natsu dragged her in the rain because he didn't want to ride the train on their last leg home while out on a mission. ( Lucy: Stupid Natsu... *glares* Natsu: What did I do? ) She coughed this time, covering her mouth while doing so.

"Stupid Natsu..." she sniffed. ( Lucy: See! *giggles* Natsu: Hey! *growls* Me: *rolls eyes* ) "If we just took the train, I wouldn't have gotten sick..." She was only wearing her pink pyjamas and her pink slippers. She stood up and walked to her bed. She closed Plue's gate and she laid down on her bed. She covered herself with her blanket until her head was only visible. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

At the guild, a raven-haired man was sitting by the bar. He was only wearing his boxers and he had his chin resting on his hand. He was bored out of his mind. Beside him, was a pink-haired man, who was sulking. He was slumped at the bar, his face hidden. He groaned, causing the raven-haired man's eye to twitch.

"Would you stop the groaning, Natsu?" he asked. ( Gray: Typical annoying Natsu... *shakes head* Natsu: *whispers* Bastard... ) Natsu didn't even budge and groaned louder.

"Lucy's not coming today." he said, his voice being muffled. "Happy said she's sick. And I really wanted to go on a mission today." he whined.

"Lucy's sick?" Gray asked. "Shouldn't we be visiting her?" ( Lucy: At least Gray's concerned! Gray: Thanks! ) At that, Natsu pushed himself off the table and looked at Gray.

"Yeah." he muttered. "I guess your right. Happy!" ( Natsu: What? I never say he's right! *points at Gray* Gray: What the hell are you getting all mad about? Natsu: Just shut it! *growls*) he called the feline. A blue blur passed by from afar and went straight to Natsu.

"Aye!" the cat exclaimed. "What is it, Natsu?"

"We're visiting Lucy right now!" he said. "Let's go!" he yelled as he ran through the doors.

"Aye, sir!" Happy said as he followed him out of the guild. ( Happy: I don't say "Aye" all the time... Me: Want some fish? Happy: Aye! ) Gray followed them, just walking while he looked for his clothes. He didn't want to be naked in Lucy's room, after all. Not when she's sick, at least. But in reality, he just didn't like the idea. He didn't know when it started, but he started to feel uncomfortable when he strips in front of Lucy, or even be half-naked and gets caught by her. He just felt so self-conscious when he does that. ( Natsu: Pansy... *snickers* Gray: *glares* Erza: *glares at them* Natsu and Gray: *shivers* )

But being a bit smarter than Natsu,( Gray: You got that right. *smirks* Natsu: *pops vein* Bastard! Erza: Shut up! *punches Natsu in face* Natsu: *lay twitching on the ground, still conscious* ) he kinda had an idea of the reason behind it. He did have a crush on Lucy when she first came to the guild. And-

. ~...~ .

"Wait a minute!" Lucy interrupted me. I looked at her with utter confusion and irritation written all over my face. They had been interrupting the whole length of the story! I furrowed my brows, then she looked at Gray, pointing an accusing finger at him.

"You...you..." she stuttered. Her finger was shaking and you could see that she was embarrassed. From the corner of my eye, I saw Natsu glaring at Gray for a bit, then closed his eyes and sighed. I smirked. My plan was working! Gray turned to me,and saw the mischiveousness of my eyes. He smirked and started a little acting show of his own.

"W-what?" Gray asked. He didn't look affected by the story, but he purposely tried to blush. It worked, a bit. Wonder who he's thinking of? Juvia? Erza? NATSU? O.o

"Y-you..." Lucy started again. "You like me?" she almost screamed. Gray flinched and blushed harder as he waves his hand in front of his face. What an actor...

"I-it's not true!" he said. "I-I think..." he said more quietly.

"You... You think?" Lucy suddenly had a calmer tone, but the blush was still there.

"Y-yeah..." Gray said. I heard Natsu growling something incoherent before turning his back on us. Aww, yeah! My plan is working perfectly! But I need more time! Or it'll all be ruined! If I know Gray, and believe me, I know them all, he probably did it on purpose. Stupid icy pervert!

"U-um..." I stuttered. "We should continue the story, yes?" Erza and Natsu nodded, while the two nodded slowly. I sighed. I need to speed this up.

. ~...~ .

And he thought that since he would always unconsciously strip and the fact that she likes to wear tiny, revealing clothes made them look compatible. ( Lucy: No way! *covers herself* Gray: *smirks inwardly* Natsu: *growls* Erza: ... )That's what he thought, at least. He shrugged and went to Lucy's after finding his shirt.

When he got there, he saw Natsu holding a small basin filled with steaming water and Happy holding a piece of cloth. ( Natsu: See? Happy and me are nicer than Ice Pansy! Gray: *huffs* )Those two were really taking care of her. They were best friends, after all. But Gray was determined on making Lucy feel better as well. He hopped off the window and inside her room. Lucy would have shrieked at the sudden intrusion, but was too sick to scream or even talk properly. Her throat hurts really bad.

"Hey Lucy." Gray said. Lucy groaned at him. Taking it as a response, he strode closer to her. "Anything I can do to help?" he asked. Lucy glanced on him. He was fully clothed, much to her surprise. She smiled weakly at him and muttered something hoarse.

"What?" Gray asked, leaning a bit closer.

"S-soup..." she faintly whispered. Gray leaned back and chuckled before nodding. He went to the kitchen and saw Natsu boiling water.

"Hey, flame-brain!" he called. The dragon slayer glared at him and scowled.

"What do you want, ice pansy!" he sneered.

"Lucy wants soup!" he said. "Get out of here!" Natsu grumbled something incoherent and reluctantly headed outside, basin at hand. Gray cracked his knuckles and started to cook.

Outside, Lucy was currently being taken care of by Natsu. He placed a wet cloth on her forehead and a glass of water in hand. Happy returned to the room with a box of medicine in his paws. Lucy drank one of the medicine and took the glass of water from Natsu.

"Thanks... Natsu." Lucy managed to say. Natsu grinned at her and stood up.

"Well, that's what nakama do, right?" Natsu asked. ( Lucy: Nakama, huh? *sigh* Natsu: What's wrong? *pouts* We are Nakama, right? Lucy: I guess... *sigh* )

"Aye!" Happy answered for her. Lucy found it in her to laugh softly before coughing again. Natsu's automatic reaction was to gently rub her back while she coughed. Lucy smiled at him afterwards, and muttered a soft 'thank you' to him.

"Hey guys!" they heard Gray call from the kitchen. "Soup's done!" A few moments later, Gray got out of the kitchen carrying a small bowl with a spoon. He placed it on Lucy's desk that was near her bed. He took a small chair and sat beside her bed. He grabbed the soup again and took a small portion of it with the spoon. He blew on it lightly before placing it near her mouth. Natsu got out of the room and went to eat the rest of the soup with Happy. ( Gray: Pig! Don't eat the soup! Natsu: As if! Happy would eat it all! Happy: Aye~! )

"Say 'aahh'." he said while opening his mouth. Lucy had a blush on her cheeks and reluctantly opened her mouth. Gray put the spoon in her mouth. Her mouth closed with the spoon still inside. She hummed as she tasted his cooking. It was good. ( Lucy: Can you really cook, Gray? Gray: Of course I can. I'm not like Mr. Useless over there. *thumb points to Natsu* Natsu: *glares then raises fist* Me: *glares harder with wide eyes* )Just then, realization dawned on Gray.

He was feeding his sick crush slash teammate! ( Lucy: Say what? Gray: *huffs* Whatever *blushes* Natsu: *glares* ) On top of that, she seemed to like his cooking. He blushed lightly, and looked at the room, hoping that Natsu didn't notice. Luckily, he was already in the living room, finished with the soup and happily snoring the day away. ( Everyone: Typical Natsu... Natsu: Hey! *pouts* ) Gray sighed, then lightly tugged on the spoon that was still in Lucy's mouth. Lucy let go and smiled.

"It's good." she whispered. Gray smirked at her and scooped up some more soup. A few minutes later, she finished the entire bowl. Gray put the bowl back in the kitchen and washed it. He went to her room again, and saw her drinking another medication.

"Thanks Gray." she said. "You and Natsu always help me out. I appreciate it." she smiled softly at him. Gray blushed and averted her eyes.

"I-it's nothing." he muttered. "Anything to make you better, right?" He heard Lucy faintly chuckle.

"I guess..." she answered. "You should go now. It's getting a bit late, don't you think?" Gray hummed in question and looked out the window. She was right. It was getting dark.

"Before I leave..." he said. He made his way closer to her. He bent down beside the bed and leaned a bit closer to Lucy. ( Natsu: The hell are you doing? *tries to punch Gray* Gray: *dodges* Natsu: *hits me instead* Oh, sorry! *chuckles* Me: *elbows him* Idiot. )

"G-Gray?" Lucy muttered. Gray grinned at her before touching her forehead.

"Your fever's gone down." he said. "I think you should be better by tomorrow." Lucy smiled at him again. He really couldn't resist that smile. "I wanted to do something to help you feel better, if that's alright?" he asked a bit shyly.

"Really?" Lucy asked. "What's that?"

"It's a special cure that Ur used on me and Lyon when we were her apprentices." he replied. "I think I still remember how she did it. It always made us feel better when we were sick."

"Oh..." Lucy muttered. "Then go ahead." she smiled. Gray smiled back with a light blush.

"Y-you should close your eyes first." Gray said hesitantly. Lucy blinked a few times, but complied. Her eyes were shut, and Gray could clearly see that. Gulping down his doubt, he leaned in closer to Lucy and in one slow movement, he kissed Lucy's forehead. ( Everyone except me: What? Me: *rolls eyes* Natsu: That's it! Roar of the- Erza: Shut your trap, Natsu! *glares* Natsu: *shuts mouth then nods* )Lucy's eyes shot open when she felt his lips on her forehead. Still, she didn't argue, because his cold temeparature was making her feel better. And she kinda liked it. A few seconds later, Gray pulled away and looked at her. He smiled sweetly at her, making her blush.

"Feeling any better?" he asked. Lucy couldn't help but smile back at him.

"Yeah." she answered. Gray grinned at her as her eyelids began to drop. "Oh..." she muttered. "The medicine I drank earlier is taking effect." she said as she laid down. Gray covered her body with her blanket as he placed a new cloth on her forehead.

"Good night, Lucy." he whispered. 'I love you.' he thought.

"Good night, Gray..." she muttered before sleep took her away. Gray smiled at her sleeping figure and couldn't resist planting a small kiss on her cheek. ( Natsu: Pervert... )He saw her smile a bit and shifted a little. He stood up and jumped off her window again, confindent about his upcoming confession.

. The End .

. ~...~ .

I sighed inwardly. "Okay! It's done! That's a GraLu fic, Lucy. And I think all of you has an idea by now, right?" I asked them all. Everyone nodded. But I noticed the absence of Natsu.

"Hey." I said. "Where's Natsu?" I looked around, and saw him, holding my cellphone. I saw him about to use his magic.

"NO!" I shouted at him before dashing and getting my phone back from him. "Don't melt my phone!"

"Hey!" he exclaimed. "What's the big idea?" I glared at him while he shrugged it off.

"My phone is private property, Natsu!" I said. "You can't just take it without asking!"

"Get used to it." I heard Lucy say.

"Hey! Take that back!" Natsu retorted. I laughed at their antics again. Then, Lucy's keys began to glow. Out from the blinding light, Leo, or Loke, appeared beside his master.

"Loke?" I asked. "Oh, that's right. You're a Spirit."

"That's right." he answered.

"I heard everything that you guys were talking about." He pointed at me. "And I do not favor of this 'NaLu and GraLu' stuff! It's just too-" I couldn't bear to listen to his rant about how to treat a lady right, how to blah, blah, blah. Blah this, blah that. It was annoying! Then, I smirked.

"And furthermore-" before Loke could continue, I cut him off.

"There are Loke and Lucy fan fics, too, if that's what you're looking for." I said in an almost whisper. This seemed to catch his interest as he stopped talking and stared at the screen.

"It's the search button here, right?" he asked, suddenly getting interested in fan fics. I chuckled at him and I sat back in my chair. This time, my phone was in my hand and I placed it on the table.

"I'll be the one to do that..." I said. He let go of the mouse and keyboard and I highlighted Gray's name and typed in Loke's name. Now we waited again...

A/N: haha! Chapter 1 is here! It's a GraLu fic! Was it nice? Who was Gray thinking of, really? I can't guess... XD Anyway, all of the fan fics here will be coming from me, so it's like a collection of various one-shots! Don't forget to review! I forgot to say this in the Prologue... There is no way that this is real! XD If it was, I wouldn't have a house left if they ever see all of the fan fics I made! Anyway, I hoped you enjoyed this chapter! ^^
