I wake up to the smell of bacon cooking. The crackling is a light sound. It takes me a moment to figure out where I am. I stumble into the kitchen, a little sore due to Gray's generous endowment.
"Good morning, sapphire!" He says in a chirpy voice. Smiling as he flips eggs and bacon around.
"Hmm. Mornin'." I grumble.
Gray laughs, "I almost forgot that you aren't a morning person."
"Coffee?" Is all I can spew out.
"No kiss? No 'good morning, dear'?"
"I don't exactly carry a toothbrush in my purse." I say with a yawn. "I'm not sure you want a kiss from me right now."
"Use mine. The coffee will be ready in 5 along with the food."
"I'll never understand morning people..." I mumble to myself as I make my way to the bathroom.
The breakfast is delicious, the sun is shining through the window, the coffee is great, and Gray is charming in the morning. It isn't long before I'm laughing and loving the day. These past two days have been some of my happiest since joining Fairy Tail.
I hang out with Gray for an hour and a half after breakfast. We talk, laugh, make out, listen to music. It's noon before I look at the clock again. "I guess I should head home and shower."
"You can shower here... We can shower together." Gray suggests, a smile pulling at his lips.
"As lovely as that sounds, I don't have clean clothes here."
"You do. From last year when you crashed here after a mission. You showered, changed and left in the morning." Gray explains. "It was really tempting to jump in the shower with you, but I figured you'd kick my ass." He laughs at the thought.
"You washed my clothes? I honestly didn't even know you could do laundry." I tease.
"Hey, I can take care of myself." Gray retorts with a pout. A second later it's replaced by that seductive grin I've come to love. "I can take care of you too... So what do ya say, wanna shower with me?" He walks over and gropes my breast, causing me to bite my lip.
I swallow thickly, "...Sure."
He leads me to the bathroom, stripping his clothes off on the way. Once he gets there, he turns on the shower, the temperature lukewarm.
