Ice Princess ((GrayLu))

Reunion

I blinked a couple of times to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, but sure enough the black wolf stood there with a wide grin on his face as he stared at me. It was almost like he was mocking me. Then the weirdest thing happened, he changed. His body started to like evaporate of something and suddenly a fairly tall man stood in front of me. His eyes red and his hair black, but a strange blue stripe ran through the back of his hair. He looked down at me and smiled again.

"What're you doing in these parts of the woods?" He asked as he slowly got closer to me. I backed away, but the wolf behind me bit at my ankles.

"I'm just lost, that's all." Even to me my voice sounded raw, and helpless. My grip tightened on the stake and his eyes followed the movement.

"You're going to stab me?" He almost looked hurt, but I kept my grip on the stake.

"If I'm forced to, yes," I replied tartly, and he mused.

"Now why would I harm a creature like you?" He took another step forwards and I lifted my stake.

"Does it matter why as long as you do it?" I spat in return, and he frowned. He was nearly a foot away from me now, but as he took another step something miraculous happened. A flash of blue light appeared, and the man was on the ground bleeding. A strong builded figure stood in front of me, and my eyes widened. It was Gray.

-----------Gray's POV----------

As I followed the stained trail of blood, I kept glancing around, maybe hoping I'd find her soon enough, but I realized that if I were to catch up with her, I had to run. So I sprinted as quickly as I could along the blood trail and it led into the woods. I nearly fell over in relief when I saw Lucy in the distance, but something was off. A man was about two feet from her. I quickly drew my sword and raced as fast as I could to her, and sliced him in the face. He fell to the ground, and I turned, my face swelled with tears, as I stared at Lucy. I pulled her into me and we became one as my lips traced her mouth. She gasped that adorable gasp of hers, and I didn't let go. She didn't make me. I kissed her forehead, then her cheek, then her neck.

"Lucy, I missed you," I whispered, and she started crying.

"Gray, he did horrible things to me," Her voice quivered, and I pulled her closer.

"It's okay now, I'm here." At that moment it was just me and her. 

Lucy and me.

---------Lucy's POV----------

Gray let me borrow his clothes as we went back to town (he never wore them anyway) and we went to the mall where he let me buy new ones. I skipped into the clothes stores, my eyes shining, and looked around, unsure what to get. Gray stayed outside because he wasn't fully clothed, and he gave me his wallet.... Okay, not the greatest idea. 

"Hmmm, I definitely need to go black or gray," I spoke partially to myself as I fingered through the adorable shirts. I finally decided on a long shirt which had a beautiful white owl on the front, and was mostly black. I went with a dark blue colored pants, and also a cute little bow that was embroidered with jewels. I then grabbed a pair of underwear and a bra. I checked out, and gasped at the price.

"2 Million Jewel?!" I yelled, "Why is it so much?" The checkout lady just shrugged, and put my clothing in a bag.

"By the way, nice outfit." She smiled at me sweetly, pointing at the clothes I had on. My face turned a deep crimson as I muttered a short 'thanks' before turning to my bag. I grasped the bag and hustled to the closest changing room, and slowly tore Gray's warm shirt and baggy pants off my body. Pulling on my undergarments, I finished putting my outfit on, and tied the bow in my hair. Sticking my tongue out, and winking at myself, I giggled at my reflection. I was a really cute girl in a cute outfit, but what didn't match was the scar that now ran across my forehead. I frowned, and finished tying the bow. Walking out of the mall, I met up with Gray, and he stood there his face slightly red.

"So.." I grinned, "How do I look?" 

"Luc.." He gaped, "You look amazing."

I blushed, and pressed my body against his, not even caring that he had no shirt or pants on. At that moment, it was only us. No one else. It was perfect.

Little did we know that it wouldn't last...
