When Gray wakes up one night with a voice in his head, the last thing he expects is to suddenly be sharing a body with a demon. Natsu is nothing like Gray expected, though. He's surprisingly charming, and more concerned about getting Gray to eat vegetables than he is with taking over the world. Since Gray can't push him away like he does with everyone else, he begrudgingly accepts Natsu's place in his life - for now. But when Natsu ends up needing Gray's help, what started out as an inconvenience turns into a road trip - and a friendship - that changes Gray's life.

Our Deaf love [Gratsu] - [Edited] by Gone_Not_Used_101

Nastu is a deaf, anti-social high school Senior. He's fine, even comfortable, with his deafness. He has enough friends to enjoy school, though he is occasionally bullied by a fellow Senior student. Natsu felt comfortable, contempt, with being who he was, but everything changed when he met Gray Fullbuster, a foreign exchange student from Greenland. Gray is a bit violent and dense, but when he gets to know Natsu and his collective group of friends, he gets softer. Natsu and Gray work through their Senior year, awkwardly pining with situations of humor and romance. A/n: This story has been edited.

Melting Gray [Gratsu] by hanlovespasta

Senior year can mean lots of things for people. For Natsu, it simply means turning over a new leaf - not letting his past define his happiness, actually attempting to get his homework taken care of, and maybe making it to graduation without going insane. However, Natsu's plans for senior year vanish before the year hasn't even started, all thanks to new guy Gray Fullbuster, the most interesting, captivating, unique person Natsu has met. But unluckily for him, he's also the most annoying, moody, rude person he's ever met. So Natsu takes on the challenge - to melt Gray's protective outer walls and reach his core to discover the true Gray inside. He know's its going to take a lot of work and a lot of patience, but he's up for the challenge to see behind those sightless eyes. Oh, right. Gray just so happens to be blind. Like it wasn't hard enough already. Warning: Major angst, fluff, and OOC-ness. ©hanlovespasta // 2014
