Chapter 42: A Rowdy Day With Them

Chapter 42: A Rowdy Day With Them

After what Sera said to you, you finally realized that you had feelings for Gray and it makes you think how you would approach Gray if today was the day to meet with him again.

To clarify things, because Gray was your precious friend, he always makes time for you to hang out with him. It doesn't trouble you when you came back from the rescue but after realizing things, it made you uncomfortable because of the feelings you're holding inside.

"How can I meet Gray like before" you are mumbling to yourself.

Sera heard you mumbling things so he went towards you and gave you the pancake he was preparing for your breakfast.

"You shouldn't stress up so much about it" after giving me the pancake, he also gave me a container full of strawberries. I get one and ate it.

"But I can't see Gray the way I see him before. This would be probably bad especially we're meeting again today" you said and get a bite from your pancake.

Sera sighed and ate his pancake.

"Just be yourself, it's not like Gray would even realized your feelings if you showed him. He's a slow man when it comes to this so relax and enjoy your breakfast" he said and continued eating his pancake.

Having a day off with Gray again, you started thinking of what you should wear for today. Thinking of the clothes you'll wear, it made you think what will you use for Gray to look at you as a pretty woman. You're stressing up again and Sera saw this.

"You're thinking too much" he said and threw a purple dress at me.

"That should be fine. A simple one" he said and grabbed the broom so that he can start sweeping the dust in your house.

You didn't talk back to Sera instead you used the dress he gave you and prepared for your hang out.

After preparing and waiting for minutes, you heard the bell rang in your shop. That means there's someone who went inside the shop.

You went downstairs and looked who's entering your shop. And then you saw Gray with his usual clothes.

"M-morning" you said flustering.

"Ahh yeah.... Morning" he was not even in the mood.

'Is this a bad time? Then he should just said to me he don't have a mood to hang out' you thought as you looked at the sour looked on his face.

"Is everything alright?" you asked.

He sighed and didn't give you a response.

"If you don't like then we should cancel our....." he stopped you before you can even complete your sentence.

"It's nothing like that" he tried to convinced you that you are not the reason why he's in a bad mood.

And a person went inside your shop and saw Natsu and Happy behind Gray.

"You're so slow Gray, we should eat already" and that's when you notice the reason why Gray is not in a good mood.

You went outside with them and there you saw Lucy also looked trouble.

You didn't ask her why she was also looking like that but you went with them silently.

The boys are in front of you fighting at each other 'again' and you are beside Lucy, walking quietly.

"We're sorry to disturb your date with Gray" Lucy started a conversation and she's really into apologizing.

You're face become red and said "T-this is not a date and the more the merrier, right?" you gave her an awkward smile.
