Gratsu - An Unforgettable Valentines

The Devils Way to Make Love

It was a special day at Fairy Tail today!! Or rather a special day for couples all around the world anyways. It was Valentines Day! And It was both Natsu's and Gray's most nerve-wracking day of the year. The two have been secretly in love with each other for a few years not knowing that the other felt the same way. That's right, Gray Fullbuster and Natsu Dragneel were in love with each other secretly. Or what they thought was secret.

To tell the truth, and it goes for everyone, they could all see that they like each other, no, love each other. Everyone would always get pissed off because they would never tell each other. And Natsu, being the person he is, never understands, while Gray would never pay full attention to anyone so he never really knew about the news going around.

It was morning and Natsu had been staring at the floor deep in thought. I should really tell Gray that I like him. It has been a couple years since I first fell in love with him, right? and looked up from the floor only to meet Gray's eyes that were staring straight at him.

"W-WHAT ARE YOU STARING AT?!", Natsu yelled at Gray and stood up quickly, even as he was blushing a light pink. There goes my chance to tell him with a calm face...again, he thought and frowned slightly, disappointed in himself.

"N-NOTHING WHAT WERE YOU STARING AT TABASCO IDIOT?!", Gray yelled back and butt heads with him in the middle of the guild, but as Natsu had been, he too was blushing too because while staring at Natsu, he was also thinking of a way to confess to him.

"HUH? I COULDN'T HEAR YOU ICE-PRINCESS!!"
"FLAME BRAIN!!"
"PERVY POPSICLE!!"
"CRAZY FIRE SPEWER!!"
"SHAVED ICE FREAK!!"
And that's when they heard foot steps stomping their way toward them and within seconds, they became victims to Erza Scarlet's fists of fury and were beaten with a punch on the head.

"I'LL BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF YOU ONE DAY ERZA!," they both yelled simultaneously and rubbed furiously at the bumps that formed where Erza punched them. Then they heard a giggle escape from Lucy Heartfilia's mouth, who was sitting next to Levy McGarden, her friend.

"You guys should drop it before you seriously get beat into a pulp," she said with a laugh and was thinking through what had been planned on before the Natsu and Gray even started the fight.

"Hey, you saying you could beat ME," Natsu said with a smirk at the same time Gray had bellowed, "Erza's not really THAT strong you know?" and smirked.

"You'd probably want to take that back guys. Look behind you," Lucy said giggling and thought Okay Erza! You can do this! as an evil aura emanated from behind the two boys who had immediately regretted what they said. 

What they DIDN'T expect was that Lucy, Levy and Erza had thought of a plan to make the boys get  together when they were thinking of ways to confess, even if force had to be used. 

A Few Minutes Earlier

"I swear," Lucy said and took a big breath, a signal which meant she was going to say a bunch of things all at once,"Natsu and Gray would make a really great couple, like come on everyone could see it and I know it's not just me. Even when the fight they look like they're getting ready to kiss each other. Honestly I wish Natsu would give me that kind of look but lets help them out first."

"I say okay to the last part," Levy said and smiled. "I do have a plan which I've thought about before too. But we have to wait until they start fighting, and Erza-san, we might need your help as well."

"I say okay as long as the two idiots finally say something to each other," Erza said with a nod and put on a smirk as the plan was whispered. 

Present (Right Now)

Instead of hitting Natsu and Gray on the head this time, Erza knocked Gray over with a push, straight into Natsu letting Gray fall onto him, putting his hands on either side of the pink haired boy's headto hold himself up, a leg balanced between Natsu's and only inches away from his face. Inches away from a kiss. He's warm, Gray thought, and he's cuter up close now that I'm here, and his hair is... He shook his head side to side almost losing his balance. What am I thinking right now? I need to...

Natsu was blushing a harsh red and couldn't move in the position he was in. "C-can you get off now?", he said in a whisper and looked away from Gray. He responded immediately by getting up and stepping three steps away.

"Tell him soon or else Lucy will make a move on him," Erza whispered as she passed Gray to help Natsu get up from the floor he was still laying on. And for the first time Gray started to freak out. What if he was thinking about Lucy the whole time. Has he ever imagined kissing her? How long has he had a crush on her? And let his mind keep running with thoughts that made him want to hide in a corner and cry.

"H-Hey what was that about? Looks like she whispered something to you," Natsu said in a hushed voice and being the dragon slayer that he is, he had heard every word that had been whispered between the two. 

"It's...well it's nothing," Gray said now blushing a light pink, not knowing that Natsu heard it all,"So...can you come with me for a bit?" he asked, and the three girls who were seated together again giggled as whistles and cheers erupted through the whole guild, loud enough that the people in the building next to them had screamed out the window to shut up. 

Even Laxus and Gildarts had approved of it and gave Gray a thumbs up and a grin, knowing what was probably going to happen when the two walk out of the guild, even though they rarely came back to the guild because of their jobs.

Taking that sign as luck, he grabbed Natsu's hand and ran out of the guild hand in hand, ice and fire molding together. His hand is so warm, was all he could think as he ran with Natsu, heading towards a forest. But as soon as the two had entered the forest Gray suddenly thought, How the hell am I going to tell him? What am I supposed to do? Meanwhile Natsu's heart was thudding fast in his chest. Gray had actually held his hand, and for some reason, even though his hands were freezing cold, he felt warm at the heart. 

And they kept running hand in hand, thoughts about each other running through their heads as they went deeper into the forest with three sneaky girls close at their heels, watching.
