"That was so much fun!" Lucy, a beautiful, honey blonde said.
"Yeah! Until you got us kicked out..." Natsu snickered.
"What?! I'm not the one destroyed a game!"
"That damn mole was asking for it! And Erza broke that test your strength ga-"
"Because the game was poorly made, if it cannot stand a little hit." The scarlet haired woman interrupted and that was final. No one dared argue with the scary knight, unless they have a death wish that is.
"Still, at least we didn't kick a dude!"
"Not my fault we was a pervert and flirting with me. He was trying to act all manly in front of his friends so I showed him where it hurts on a man." Lucy smirked and Natsu snickered again. "His face was the best thought, it went from red to pale then he passed out! Haha, nice one Lucy!" The both of them hi-fived.
"Well, this is where we part. See you tomorrow at school, and Natsu," Erza said while Turing towards the pinkette.
"Y-yes E-Ezra?"
"Don't be late, again." She said with a terrifying aura surrounding her.
"Y-yes ma'am!" He shouted while saluting the scary woman. She nodded then turned and crossed the street.
"Hey Lucy, I'll walk you home if you want."
"Are you sure Natsu, you live all the way across town." Lucy was Natsu's best friend, and was always concerned about him.
"Yeah, my dads out of town till next week, so I'm in no rush."
They talked and laughed all the way to Lucy's apartment.
"Bye Natsu, be careful!"
"See ya Luce." Natsu said with his signature grin, turning towards the road home.
It started to drizzle as Natsu walked home. 'Just my luck' he though as he loosened his scarf.
After his short-cut through the covered market place, Natsu look up at the sky to see that it was now pouring and was getting late. He remembered the other day when he was in a similar situation. His stomach fluttered as he remembered the raven-haired stripper he ran into. 'Whats this feeling in my stomach? Maybe I'm sick? I'll ask Lucy tomorrow' He thought about how his heart pounded when he saw the boy, maybe because he was scared. 'But I wasn't scared! Damn it! I'm probably never going to meet him again anyway!' At that thought, Natsu's heart dropped and he had a feeling of disappointment.
"Maybe I am sick..." He mumbled to himself. Natsu had no idea why he felt this way every time he thought of the raven-haired boy. 'I don't even know his name!'
"This is that damn strippers fault..." He mumbled and being too deep in thought, Natsu accidentally took a wrong turn, ending up in the wrong alley-way.
"Gihi," Natsu snapped out of his thoughts and turned around. He saw a tan, muscular guy with a ton of pricing's standing a few feet away from him. The man had wild, long, dark hair and crazy red eyes.
"Who the hell are you?" Natsu asked, trying to look brave but took a step back. He was scared but no way in hell would he show it in front of this guy.
"Gihi, the names Gajeel and princess, I think you're lost." Natsu looked around and realized he was indeed, lost. He mentally cursed himself for being so careless.
"Princess?! No way in hell bastard! Now get out of my way." Natsu stormed passed the metal man only for him to grab his wrist and pin him to the wall by his collar.
"Let go of me, metal head!" He yelled while struggling to get out of Gajeels iron grip. (No pun intended)
"You're a feisty little lighty, aren't 'cha? Gihi, I think I'll play with you fora bit." Natsu continued to struggle, he was freaking out now. A flash of lightning lit the sky up and Natsu froze. He was petrified, it was getting dark, a crazy man has him pinned to a wall, he was soaking wet and it was now thundering. The world really hates him, doesn't it?
"Oh, it looks like someone's afraid of thunder, gihi." Natsu closed his eyes as he felt the tripod his collar tighten. Even with the rain pouring down, he knew he was crying. He was mentally preparing himself for the worst when suddenly he felt the grip on his collar, disappeared. Natsu slowly opened his eyes to see Gajeel stumbling into a wall, and I front of him stood none other than the raven-haired teen he saw the other day.
"Seriously Gajeel, what's with you and 'playing' with lights?" The raven-haired teen asked in a gruff voice. Gajeel stood up all of a sudden and took out a knife. Natsu wanted to warn the teen, he wanted to he, but he was paralyzed with fear. The boy saw it I time to dodge, but no completely. The knife cut him above his left eyebrow, but the raven-haired boy ignored it and got Gajeel right in the jaw. He flew across the alley and slammed into the wall, passing out. Relief washed over Natsu as he realized he was okay now.
"Oi, are you okay pinky?" The Gray asked, a hit of concern in his voice.
Natsu slid down the wall, hugging his knees while laughing and hiccuping.
"Shit! Your hysterical!" The teen sighed, "Come on pinky, I'll take you home." He said, offering his hand to the pinkette. But Natsu just stared at it, hugging his knees tighter. By now he was done laughing but he still was hiccuping and with more tears flowing. Gray stared at Natsu and knew he was scared out of his mind. From the loud, annoying idiot who he was yesterday to this crying, hiccuping mess.
"Natsu, come on, you need to go home." Now his voice was soft, he extended his hand more, urging the pinkette to take it. Natsu hesitated, but took the patters hand, and was helped to his knees. Still holding Natsu's hand, Gray lead him out of the alley towards the place he first met Natsu. Neither spoke a word, but it was a comfortable silence, with a sniff from Natsu and the rain adding a calming beat. Eventually, Natsu lead Gray towards his home, enjoying the sensation of holding Grays cold hand.
When they came to the steps of Natsu's home, Gray stopped, which tugged the pinkette's hand, making him turn towards the raven-haired teen.
"This is where we part." Natsu gave a small smile and shook his head, which Gray raised an eyebrow at.
"You got hurt because of me, at least let me patch you up." The teen sighed and allowed the pinkette to bring him inside. Natsu switched on the lights then sat Gray on the couch. While Natsu went to go find the first-aid kit, Gray decided to look around. What caught his attention was a wall with pictures on it, most of them of Natsu with a red-haired man which Gray assumed was his father. But one stood out, it was a picture of Natsu when he was about 5 or 6, with his father, and a gorgeous pink-haired woman. The picture was old looking and all crinkled up behind the frame it was in.
"Found it!" Gray jumped slightly, realizing he was staring at the picture. He shook his head and turned his head towards the now cheery Natsu.
"You know, I never got your name, so I can't thank you properly."
"I guess you didn't, my names Gray, Gray Fullbuster," he said while grinning.
"Well thank you for saving me, Gray." Natsu said with a smile then turned his attention to the kit. Gray got a warm feeling when he heard Natsu say his name. 'Weird' he thought. Natsu moved Gray's hair out of the way and dabbed the medicine on with a towel, making Gray hiss. Natsu froze then apologized and dabbed a little more gently.
"I'm really sorry, now you're going to have a scar."
"Don't be sorry, you did nothing wrong, and who cares, it makes me look tuff. Besides by hair practically covers it." Gray said while grinning. Natsu looked into Gray's eyes, realizing he was being completely sincere. Then he realized how close their faces were, turned a bright red and jumped back. Gray, stared at Natsu's red face and realized why he was blushing, causing him to grin.
"I-is their anything else I can do?" Natsu asked, his face calming down a bit.
"Nah, I'm fine, thanks for patching me up pinky." Gray said as he opened the door to reveal the pouring night. He turned to go but was stopped by a "Wait!" When he turned towards the pinkette he found him handing him an umbrella.
"A-at least I can give you this so you don't catch a cold." Natsu said while looking at the floor. Grays smiled at the little gesture.
"Thank you," that caused Natsu to look at Gray and their eyes met, the he looked away with a pink blush adorned on his cheeks.
"Oi pinky." Natsu turned to Gray, only to find his lips on his. Natsu was shocked at first but then kissed back. Gray pulled away smirking, "Thanks for the umbrella pinky," then turned and exited the house.
As soon as he was gone Natsu sat on the floor touching his, now tingling, lips. Their goes his first kiss, but he was a giddy inside. 'I don't know what just happened but I'm happy it happened.' Natsu smiled and stood up.
"Happy! You crazy cat, wake up and come down for dinner!"
