Days with You [Gratsu AU] Discontinued

Chapter 28

Gray's POV

I could sense that Natsu is being uncomfortable from what I just said. He has been silent for more than five minutes now, like he was already lost in the depths of his thoughts. Am I pushing him too much? I'm making a very quick move here... Usually if you want to trust someone, you have to know him more. But I'm forcing him to trust me.. Wait! thats not what I intentionally mean..

I want to help but I sense something in Natsu's condition that he doesnt want me to help him at all.. And its just so frustrating that I can't do anything for him. The way that amazon woman's (Thats Erza) eyes soften and from her scary face suddenly becomes worried when I mentioned that something happened to Natsu. On how Levy almost cry from worriedness when we all felt that Natsu was not okay that time. And how the way Sting protected him from everything. And not to mention last night, on how helpless and terrified he was when he was alone. Surely, something was up and I'm even positive that Juvia knows something about it..

And they say 'anything happens for a reason..' Fuck it! I'm loosing my mind thinking what the damn reason is..

But then again.. Am I really forcing him? was it really just me assuming that we were actually friends?? I have never been this curious about someone before.. Its been a while since the last time I cared for someone after from what has happened to me before. I'm just hoping that I wouldn't make the same mistake again.

I was patiently waiting for Natsu's answer as I battle with my own thoughts, trying my best to brush away all the negative memories from my past. But before he could even open his mouth for my most awaited answer, the school bell rings.

Both of us were shock from the sudden alarming sound that always reminds the students to go to their respected classrooms before their teacher shows up.
Natsu startled and lost his words along with the fading sounds of the bell, then he looked away. I sighed and patted his head.

"Come on let's get a going before we get into trouble from being late" I softly smiled then he nodded.

We hurriedly grab our things and went to class. And since this is the first time I went inside the class with Natsu, I never imagine the great tension along with the awkwardness building up everytime Natsu enters the room. I mean, like really?? what the hell is their problem?

But to my amaze, Natsu handles it like it was his daily routine everyday. He would just look down and hurriedly walk his way to his seat.

Ugh! Even the class know something!

I dont know why it piss me off but I glare to anyone that dares to stare back as I walk to my seat.

This isn't really making any sense!

Then I realize that they we're looking at me for a different reason, I even saw Natsu staring at me and he was sending me some message between his stares but I didn't get it.

"You're shirt.." Natsu whispered then looked away but I saw a tint of pink on his cheeks.

"Shit!" I began blushing then hurriedly put on my shirt. With all of this frustration, I didnt even realized I took my shirt off..

Damn you stripping habit!

Its a good thing Juvia's not here or else she's gonna scold me again with my curse habit..

When I sat down thats when the teacher showed up. After a few introductions, he began writing some lessons on the board. But I wasnt really listening, I still havent got my answer yet so thats the only thing running through my head right now.

And my actions were speaking louder than my words when I was carelessly writing down a note of what I am thinking then absentmindedly pass it down to Natsu.

Natsu's POV

Our teacher showed up and everybody went to their rightful seats. I was still shock from Gray, who just suddenly strip off his shirt for no reason and I just couldn't look at him after that. I wish I was like Juvia, I mean she got used to seeing it. Why does he have to do that anyway? Its the second time I saw that glorious body of his. And my stupid heart just keeps beating so hard that I'm loosing my breath.

Our teacher started writing down some notes on the board and I dont even know if I'm writing it correctly on my notebook. Gray's shirtless image still keeps popping in my head that I'm literally misspelling every word on my notes.

Then all of a sudden, Gray handed me a piece of paper but he wasnt looking at me when he pass it down to me.

'Can I atleast have my answer after school?'

My eyes widened cause I almost forgot about it. A lot of painful memories has happened to me and I dont even know if I still have the guts to trust someone new in my life. But then again, Gray still needs a proper answer.

After all we're friends... right?

I write down an 'okay' at the buttom of note then pass it down to him. I saw him smile at me and I gave him an unsure smile, but he doesnt seem to notice it cause he went back on writing down whatever the teacher was doing on the board.

****

And everything went by so fast and before I knew it, last period of class was over. I've been completely spacing out that I didn't understand a single lesson that our teachers has thought for today. I just hope I can survive the upcoming quiz tommorrow.

I just sigh as I stretch my arms in the air. As I turn to see Gray, I saw him sleeping on his desk. Well, last period was really boring though I was completely spacing out that its just unsual for me to NOT fall asleep today. I placed my stuffs inside my bag while the other students were walking out of the room.

When I realized that we were the only ones inside the room, I felt this sudden quietness around. Then I turn around to see Gray still sleeping on his desk, for some reasons, my feet started walking towards him then I lean closer to get a better view of the sleeping mage. There was a bit of a drool on the side of his slightly opened mouth and I could hear him snoring. He looked so tired yet peaceful at the same time.

*Click*

Absentmindedly, I took a picture of him. And eventhough Gray was right infront of me, I stared at photo on my phone. Then the sudden image of the shirtless Gray has yet again appeared in my head. My heart started to race and I could feel my face heating up again..

'Shit! What did I just do?!'

I suddenly stand up and my face was all red now. What has Gray done to me?! Today is just day two.. Am I really gonna trust him on this?? I was now pulling the locks of hair from all the confusion because of this peacefully sleeping ice mage! And with all the frustration building inside me that was completely driving me insane, I did what I have to do. . . . . . . . . . . .
