Chapter 30

Well, here you go... I tried lol ;)

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Lucy was in her second period class and her teacher had given them self study. God was on her side today.

"So Gray, you seeing anyone?" Lucy asked.

Gray looked up from his homework he had forgotten to finish last night.

"Um no?" he said.

"Oh? Why not, if I may ask" Lucy said.

"There's no one I want to date here" Gray said.

"Oh really" Lucy said.

Gray did not like Lucy's tone of voice.

"Alright what did she tell you?" Gray asked dropping his pencil.

"Her life story, it was really sad but then you came in like a knight in shining armor and rescued her" Lucy smiled.

Gray sighed. "Did she put you up to this?" he asked.

"No but I've heard her side of the story, now I want to hear yours. Why do all that for a stranger and not date her in the end?" Lucy asked.

"I have my reasons" Gray said.

"Everyone has reasons Gray, the only thing that matters is if there true or not" Lucy said.

"Fine I have issues" Gray corrected.

"Tell me then" she said.

"You have issues of your own to worry about, you don't need mine" Gray said.

"I've resolved my issues Gray, now let me help yours" Lucy said.

Gray laughed dryly. "Yeah right? Tell you what, if you tell me the reason why you've gone all innocent Lucy on everyone I'll tell you my side of the story" Gray said.

Lucy took a deep breath. Why was everyone having so much trouble accepting her? She wanted to help Juvia though, she was going to tell him.

"Alright but on one condition, you don't tell anyone about it. I assume you want me to keep your reason a secret so I want you to keep mine a secret as well" she said.

"What's the point of learning it then?!" Gray asked.

"I think you want to tell me your problems. You've been keeping them to yourself for so long and nothings change. You've given up hope. Now your trying to reach out to someone, your reaching out to me. I just want to help Gray" Lucy said.

That's all Lucy's wants to do now, is help people. Gray's breathing quickened before he shut his eyes closed tight.

"My Mother" he said.

Lucy blinked at him.

"Juvia, she reminds me of my Mother" Gray said.

"That's sweet" Lucy said.

"My Mother's dead" Gray said.

Or not.

"I saved Juvia because I wanted to save my Mother. I... I couldn't save her though" he said.

"What are you talking about? You did save Juvia" Lucy said.

"I couldn't save my Mother" Gray said.

"Tell me Gray, start from the beginning so I'm not lost" she said.

Gray grabbed her hand.

"I killed my Mother. It was late and we had an argument, I can't even remember what it was about but I got angry. It was 2 years after you had left. I ran away from home yelling, how was I suppose to know that would be the last day I would see her? I said so many hurtful things, I told her I hated her. What Mother wants to hear that from their son?"
