Fight
"I'm so fucking done with your bull shit! That's all you are, full of shit." Gray snarled as he stomped down the stairs carrying all his belongings in a duffel bag. Natsu followed his now ex boyfriend who continued. "All you do is nag nag nag at me! It's frustrating as fuck!" Gray continued.
"Maybe if you'd just stop flirting with every bimbo you see and pay attention to me-"
"Oh my god, here we go again! You piss me off, Natsu, I swear. You can't handle me looking at other people when that's all I'm doing!"
Natsu gritted his teeth. "You know damn well you do more than look! You act like I'm not there half the time and you're always flirting-"
The raven haired teen whirled around once he reach the bottom of the stairs to glare up at Natsu. "You're so damn dramatic that you think I'm flirting. In actualality, you're just a pathetic idiot full of insecurities. And I can't take another day of being tied down to it. You either trust me or you don't."
Natsu froze on the steps, fists clenched at his sides, trembling ever so slightly at the comment. "Th-that's not true!" he hoped that his voice didn't betray him and show off his pain he felt. "And no one asked you to be tied down for anything!"
"Why the fuck do you think I'm leaving?" Gray growled as he threw open the front door. Natsu quickly took off his shoe and threw it at Gray. Or where Gray was standing seconds ago. The shoe flopped sadly to the floor and the echo of the door slam still rang in Natsu's ears.
He breathed heavily as he glared at the spot his ex stood before shakily going the rest of the way down to retrieve his shoe. As he bent over, the pinkette heard the sound of a car zooming away and that's when the tears came.
The pinkette sunk to the ground and cried. He raised his legs up to his chest and wrapped his arms tightly around them as tears streamed rapidly down his face. This wasn't the first time they had a fallout but every time is worse for Natsu. They always make up in the end but one day the making up will stop and that scares Natsu.
He didn't know how long he sat there sobbing but it was getting dark by the time he realized Gray's wallet was on the floor as well. Natsu felt his chest tighten as stared at the dark blue item. He didn't want to move but he had to give it back to its owner.
Sighing softly, Natsu rose to his feet stumbling some with a blurry vision and a throbbing head. Retrieving the wallet and grabbing his car keys, the pinkette was off to Gray's place with a heavy heart.
Gray was flopped on his side on his couch in his spacious living room snacking on a bag of potato chips. His lanky body hung off the furniture and a scowl was on his face while he chewed. Damn Natsu. How dare he say Gray didn't care about him when he clearly did.
Gray swallowed as he repositioned himself so he was on his back. "Damn it." he sighed angrily and closed his eyes. His shirt was missing, crumpled on the floor next to his bag of chips. He let one arm sprawl over his chest while the other went behind his head like a pillow. "I do care. He has to know that... right?"(1)
The raven haired teen gritted his teeth, his chest tightening up with slight guilt as images of flashbacks played in his mind.
One being of Natsu getting shoved against a locker and him not doing anything about.
The pinkette gathered his fallen books before getting kicked backwards. Hands reached down and yanked him on his feet but the front of his shirt. His legs left the ground and he was met looking into the sneering face of Laxus Dreyar.
Gray stood on the side with his own group of friends and heard the spiky hair blonde growl "Fags like you don't belong in this school." to Natsu before dropping him to the ground. Laxus left with his followers, leaving the pinkette rubbing his lower back. He froze when he saw Gray, his eyes wide.
"Gray-" the pinkette started but Gray turned away and walked off himself, his group following behind, leaving Natsu with watery eyes.
Okay, at the time Gray thought it'd be good for his boyfriend- ex- to defend himself on his own. Even it was from Laxus, the toughest guy in their high school. But now... Gray groaned. It just made him come off as an ass hole; one who didn't care at that.
And there were times where he'd flirt with others, no matter what gender. Once at the movies, some girl heavily flirted with him in front of Natsu and Gray hadn't even thought to mention that the pinkette was his boyfriend.
"What the hell is your problem?" Gray asked, voice void of emotion. Natsu had dragged him out the theaters and was now glaring at him.
"I was standing right there, you could have told her I am your boyfriend!" the pinkette snapped.
"She didn't ask. Besides, it was just harmful flirting. Not like I would have done anything. You saw I didn't take her number."
Natsu stared in shock silence at the older boy before turning on his heel and storming away.
Gray jerked up staring at his lap. He hadn't even gone after Natsu. "No... because I'm a complete douche bag." he answered himself.(2) It seemed like forever until he moved again, walking towards his door with a determination expression. He was going to apologize to Natsu.
Whipping the door open, Gray reeled back in surprise when he saw Natsu standing right outside. The boy was staring down at the ground, his pink hair hiding his face. He dropped the hand poised up to knock before thrusting it out.
"Natsu-" Gray started but was cut off by the pinkette.
"Here." Natsu's voice was raspy, rough. Gray's eyes went to the hand that was holding... his wallet? Gray's eyes widened and he moved them to stare at Natsu. He came all the way to his house after all the awful things Gray yelled at him, after all the awful things Gray's done to him. After everything, in the end Natsu is still the forgiving type.
"Natsu..." Gray breathed out and the pinkette looked up, a patch of bright pink hair covering one of his puffy eyes, the other visible and watery for Gray to see. Natsu's bottom lip quivered slightly and he looked away quickly.
"Just take it." he murmured. Gray did, but he also drew Natsu into his arms, fitting his slender frame against his muscled chest. Surprisingly the pinkette didn't put up a fight, palms spread across Gray's bare chest and his face hidden away in the crook of Gray's neck.
The raven haired heard a small sniffle and hugged Natsu closer to him while giving himself a mental slap in the face. "Do you really think I'm a pathetic idiot full of insecurities?" the pinkette's voice was soft, muffled.
Gray was now giving himself a mental kick in the balls.
Pulling back slightly to grasp Natsu's face, Gray looked at him with a hard expression. "No. I was the biggest douche of the biggest douches for saying that to you Natsu. I was just mad, you know? I'm tired of us fighting."
Natsu opened his mouth but Gray pressed a finger to it. "No. I know it's my fault and I know I'm a selfish bastard for still wanting you, someone who deserves better, but I swear I'll change. I'm going to be a way more better boyfriend than I have been in the past."
Natsu bit his lower lip as he stared up at Gray. "You promise me?" Gray took in the pinkette's appearance and grew angry with himself all over again. He doesn't want Natsu to ever look like this because of him. He leaned down and clasped their lips together softly, wetly.
"I promise." Gray murmured against those petal soft lips and gently pulled Natsu inside his house.
A/N: 1- "I do care. He has to know that... right?" Gray asking himself.
2 - "No... because I'm a complete douche bag." Him answering himself.
This chapter is ehhhh. I am going to keep this short as possible for all of our sake! I've decided to be organized for once and update on a schedule. I have two more Gratsu ideas floating around in my head that I intend on making into full stories and I also have two on-going stories for a different show. So everything eventually will have its own day I update on. Yay.
