I-I'm Fired Up

Food And...

Gray's pov

After 'that' occurred I went back to making food. Natsu and Happy walked into the kitchen, Natsu was heavily blushing as he saw my gaze.

Natsu's pov

After that embarrassing 'thing' happened I quickly got clothed and told Happy everything that happened. He, of course, started Laughing. After I was all ready, my hair gelled, my scarf around my neck and Happy by my side I walked into the kitchen where I supposed Gray was. But once I entered the kitchen the terrible stench of food, I couldn't really make out which, hit my nose and made my stomach turn.

Gray's pov

Upon walking into the kitchen, Natsu didn't look really good and he rushed back into the bathroom. "There goes nothing...", Happy said as he rushed after his best friend. I walked into the bathroom, only to see Natsu throwing up. He didn't look good and I saw it took much of him. Happy was rubbing circles on his back with his paw and whispering sweet things in Natsu's ear. I kneeled down on the other side of him and held his scarf back for him while also rubbing circles on his back. After I think was twenty minutes I got Natsu to get up and back into his hammock. With a little help of Happy he reached his hammock once again while I flushed the toilet.

I went to see how he was doing and saw Happy placing a wet towel on his forehead. Damn this was only a Cold wasn't it. How could he suddenly get the flu.

Happy's pov

Gray came closer to Natsu and suddenly Natsu said something I wouldn't have expected for him to say "I love you Gray." I saw Gray's face going into shock and he looked at me "I-It's his Fever right?" "Well his Fever makes him say things he normally wouldn't say, but he really loves you.", I told Gray

Gray's pov

'He loved me? Happy even confirmed it. What should I say now? How were my feeling for the pink haired dragon slayers? What did I feel for him?' I ruffled his pink hair and smiled softly. "He's cute, isn't he?"
Natsu purred as I ruffled his hair some more. I went to get him a glass of water and put it on the table next to his hammock. "Do you think he'll get better soon? I don't like to see him like that.", Happy said and I petted his head "Of course he'll get better soon. He's Natsu right?". Happy's eyes lighted up and he smiled. I glanced once more over to Natsu and blushed. Damn, why am I blushing. But, there's no need to hide it anymore right? No need to hide my feelings for the pink haired mage anymore. When he gets better, I'll confess my feelings to him. Just like he did. Imagining a life with him, a life with Natsu. Being together. It made me blush even more.

Time passed by and Natsu seemed nothing better. I sighed. Happy was really worried about him and didn't wanted to leave his side. I brought him a fish so he at least ate something and when I walked in the bedroom I saw Natsu sitting up in his hammock and petting Happy's head. This was chance. My chance to tell him how I felt. "Natsu... About what you said before you fell asleep...". I could almost see a huge question mark coming from his head as he looked at me with those big Green eyes. "Huh? What did I say?". Happy and my jaw fell. "How can you not remember something that important!", I yelled and tears were threatening to fall. But I turned my head away from the dense dragon slayer. I knew he was dense, but forgetting he confessed his love to me? I saw Happy whispering something in his ear and Natsu's face heating up. "Did I really say that?!", he yelled in surprise. Happy nodded and I said "W-well... I love you too flame brain.", I quickly said but I knew Natsu understood. "Ice princess.", he said "My ice princess...", he muttered soon after and even though he thought I hadn't heard it, I had. His. His ice princess. We could do something about the ice princess part, but I sounded good. To be his. "Yours...", I said as I quickly pecked him on the lips, making both our faces heat up when we heard Happy roll his tongue. "Mira would love to hear this...", he said and flew away. When he was gone Natsu suddenly pulled away from my grasp and ran into the bathroom again.

Natsu's pov

Gray kissed me. When I finally came out of the daze I felt my stomach turn again and ran at the toilet. I held my head in the toilet and threw up what was in my stomach, which wasn't much, before dry heaving. I felt simply terrible. Gray was rubbing my back and holding my scarf back again. After what felt an eternity Gray persuaded me to leave the bathroom and lie down a little bit more. Gray helped me to the cough, which was closer to the bathroom than my hammock, and I crashed into it, falling asleep from the moment my head hit the improvised pillow of laundry. I slept so much already today. How could I still be tired?
The last thing I felt before sleep pulled me into his grasp was Gray kissing my cheek before walking away. I really love that guy.
