Grays POV
"What do you want, flamebrain?"
"Can you come get me?" He sounds so... broken.
"Why?" My voice becomes softer, more gentle, but slightly suspicious. He doesn't even realize when he takes things too far, and for all I know this could be some stupid prank.
"Please..." It's not a prank.
"Yah, sure. Just tell me where you are." I gently respond.

Natsus POV
I sit there waiting for him to come pick me up. How did things end up this way?Flashback
I'm on the floor looking up at him.
"Please, Just look at me!" There are tears rolling down my face, but I don't notice them.
Why won't he just look at me? I thought he loves me?
"AND WHY SHOULD I?!" He screams.
"Because you love me?" My voice wavers, and I can't even convince myself that was true. He sneers at me.
"Why would I- how could ANYONE love someone like you? With your pink hair, all your stupid insecurities and how you whine about them all night!" He snarls exasperatedly. But apparently he isn't done. "And my gosh, how when your happy you just wont shut up!"
I feel myself shiver out a hurt cry before covering my mouth.
"And why would I be interested in someone who wont even put out for me, even after we've been together for two years!" I start running away from him, but not before turning and looking at him.
"I hate you, Sting!" I yell out and make a break for it.End of flashback
I feel tears start to fill my eyes and a few drop down my face, just as Grays car pulls up. I get into the passenger seat, shut the door, and buckle in. I keep my head turned away, and looking out the window.
"Natsu?" he asks gently.GRAYS POV
He stays silent, and refuses to look at me. I turn on the radio and begin to drive back to my place. He's in no condition to be on his own.Just when we reached a red light, his favorite song came on. I turn and look at him, but it's like he doesn't even notice it.
:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
"We're here." I whisper.
He just nods and gets out of the car without even looking up. We walk into the house together , and flop onto the couch."You wanna talk about it?" I ask gently, leaning in. He looks up at me and my heart shatters. His eyes look hollow, glossy, and lost. He must have been crying for a while because there are a lot of tear tracks on his face. He opens his mouth, but all the comes out is a hurt noise, and he starts crying. However this time it isn't silent. He cried loudly, and wailed. His breaths were ragged, and his chest was heaving. I scoot closer to him and rest his head into the crook of my neck, wrapping my arms around him.
"It's okay. Just let it all out. Trust me, it's not good to bottle up those emotions. Let them out while I'm here with you. I won't judge or tease you. It's okay." I comfort him, while rubbing his back.
He cried for a while. After he finished, he pulled back and rubbed his eyes. They were bloodshot, and revealed his true emotions. He looks up at me, and takes a deep breath. He averts his gaze from me and begins to explain.
"I was in a two year relationship" he started off, and my eyes widened. He never mentioned that he was dating anyone to the guild....ever. He's nervously picking at his nails. He rarely does that. "And it just ended. He told me....he told me that- " he cuts off with a sigh.
"It's alright, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to." I say. He closes his eyes tight, and looks down.
"He told me how could anyone love me with my pink hair and stupid insecurities. He told me how he hated how I wont shut up when I'm happy. He said why would he be interested in someone who wouldn't even 'put out' for him even after two years."
"Oh Natsu." I whisper, pulling him into a hug.
"Maybe he's right though." He sighs.
"No! Absolutely not. He couldn't be more wrong. Don't listen to him." I grip his arms.
"Maybe he has a point. Who would love me?"
"Natsu!" I shout in shock.
"Why should anyone love me? What have I ever done to deserve it? Destroy towns?" He sarcastically and exasperatedly asks laying back on my couch. I can't take it anymore, I lean over and kiss him.NATSUS POV
My eyes widen and I suddenly became stiff. He's kissing me...and I like it?Gray pulls away and looks shocked himself.
"I'm so sorry. I- I don't know what I thought I was doing. I- I guess you want to leave now. I'll go call Lucy." He says, getting up and starting to run away. I grab his wrist and pull him back towards me.
"No. It's okay. I... I liked it?" I say. He doesn't look convinced though.
"Don't try to spare my feelings. I'll go call her." Spare his feelings? He likes me? Suddenly without knowing what I'm doing, I grab him and spin him around, slamming my lips onto his. He makes a shocked noise, but slowly kisses back.
"I think I like you to." I say looking up at him. "And even though I just got out of a relationship, I want to be with you. I know that much."
He just smiles, places his hand on the side of my face, and leans in. The kiss starts off shy and awkward,but quickly becomes a nice, gentle, meaningful one.Moving on certainly wasn't hard. And now that I'm out of that relationship, I can finally be in one where I know I'll be happy, and cared for. I think I'm going to enjoy this.
