A Forbidden Practice ( Gray x reader)

Day In

(Y/N POV 7:15am)

I yawned as I opened my eyes to the dim light shining through my curtains. I yawned and stretched as I sat up and swung my legs over the side of the bed. I groggily made my way to the kitchen to brew to coffee.

I sipped on the life nectar as still fought the grips of sleep lingering. I stretched out again and headed to the living room, mug in hand. I flipped on the tv and sat down. As soon as I made contact with the soft furniture my phone started ringing from my room. I groaned and got back up, shuffling to my room. I saw that it was the boutique calling and just let it ring through. There was no way I putting on pants on my off day. As the calling screen went off I saw the text message. It was from early in the morning.

I sat on my bed and looked at the open message from Gray.

"Sorry I missed your texts. I was out of town and forgot to bring my phone." I read it aloud. I then read it over again. I felt relieved that he wasn't ignoring me, but at the same time I felt like something was off about him. I just sighed and shut my phone off, tossing it off to the side. I flopped back on my bed and looked up at the ceiling, "He is so weird."

(Gray POV 1:32pm)

I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I hit accept and pressed the device to my ear, "Hello?" I asked groggily, still exauhsted from my previous weeks of long days with little sleep. "Geez, did you just wake up?" Natsu's voice traveled through the phone lines. The temptation to hang up was present. "What do you want?" I sat up and ran my fingers through my hair. "Do you want to take another j-" I cut him off, "Hell no." He laughed over the line. "Joking, no need to be harsh. I was wondering if were coming by the guild tonight." The line was quiet for a few moments until I replyed, "No, I'm gonna pass." Natsu groaned and tried to talk me into drinking the night away.

I scrolled through my ohone as I sipped on coffee. I checked my messeges, I then stopped. (Y/N). She left me on read. I groaned as I just looked at the lest text I sent her. There was a small voice in the back of my head, 'Go talk to her.' I pushed that to the back of my mind as I slid some basketball shorts on.

'Go talk to her.'

I tried to pushed it back further as I threw on a clean shirt

'Go talk to her.'

That voice kept repeating itself as I slid on my shoes and walked out of my apartment.

'Talk to her.' It said as I stood infront of (Y/N)'s door about to knock.

'Good.' The voice was content when I knocked and heard her say a muffled, "Coming, hold on a minute."

Now what?

(Y/N POV)

"Coming. Hold on a minute." I called out and slightly groaned as I put on sweat pants and tied my (h/l)(h/c) hair back. 'Guess I am putting on pants on my day off.' I hurried to the door, not sure who was on the other side. I opened the door and was a bit taken back. Gray stood there, he seemed tired. I was suddenly self conscious about my over sized, off the shoulder shirt and baggy sweat pants. "C-Can I help you?" I played with the hem of my shirt. "I was wondering if you were busy today?" He shifted on his feet as he stood there, waiting for an answer. "I was just going to stay home today... But you can hang out here if you want..." A blush crawled onto my cheeks as I stepped aside and let him in. "Have you ever seen (Favorite Show)?" He was quiet as he thought and took off his shoes. "I've heard of it but never took the time to watch it." I smiled as I searched the first episode. "Want to?"

We both sat on the couch, I was leaned against him, my legs drapped on his lap, head tucked on to his chest with his arm around my shoulders. I was dozing off to his steady breathing. I wasn't entirely sure how we went from opposite sides of the couch to us in this position, but I wasn't complaining. He shifted a bit and leaned his head onto the back of the couch. I shut my eyes and took a breath. It was nice, being like this. It just felt... Right. I let out a small sigh and fell asleep.

(Gray POV)

I looked down at (Y/n), she was sleeping so peacefully. I leaned my head back on the couch and closed my eyes. This was nice. But all good things come to an end. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I shifted and pulled it out. Natsu. "What do you want." I kept my voice low. "Get down to the guild asap."
