Gray x Lucy x Gray

How the Hell Did I Fall For You?

Chapter One

Gray P.O.V

Oh no she's coming this way, I shifted awkwardly in my seat next to Juvia, "sup Lucy," I waved at her.

"Hey Gray, hey Juvia," she smiled at us.

I blushed WHY AM I BLUSHING? Lately I've been feeling very weird around Lucy, I don't know why but she making me feels hot and I'm an Ice Mage. I don't even want to be around the same temperature as that Flame Freak. I have to find out what's wrong with me, I mean it's not like I'm oblivious when I like someone or if someone was in the same shoes as me but this is Lucy. I laugh at myself a little; I can't like Lucy she's my teammate how weird would that be. Beside I have Juvia well not really but she's all over me and our magic is compatible right. I smile thinking about it but why was I getting a picture of Lucy in my mind, there's nothing between us and Natsu or Erza would kill me if I even had the slightest itch towards her or maybe they'd both kill me. Ugh Lucy out of my mind.

"Gray-sama, are you okay?" Juvia ask me.

"Oh I must of space out," I explain.

"Anyway Gray like I was saying WHERE ARE YOUR CLOTHES!" Lucy shouted red in the face.

I panic searching for my trousers and shirt, geez you think they would of gotten used to my habit besides it's just my body. I put my clothes on apologizing, "sorry Lucy."

"Juvia doesn't mind Gray's body," here we go.

A sweat drops from Lucy making me laugh; her reaction to Juvia's modesty was hilarious.

Normal P.O.V

Gray exits the Guild denying a fight from Natsu and continuing, Lucy noticed as she finishes a conversation with Mira. Something was occupying Gray is mind and he couldn't stop thinking, he had alienated himself from the Guild and wanted to be alone. Lucy watched him exit leaving Mira to notice.

"Watching Gray, huh?" Mira asked.

Lucy waved her hands, "no…" Lucy relaxed, "just curious."

After a while Lucy walks out the Guild to go shopping for some groceries, she goes to the shopping district to see Gray sitting at a bench watching the people pass by. She looks at him in wonder then approaches him, "hey Gray," she waves at him with a bright smile.

"Oh hey Lucy, what are you doing here?" he looks up at her.

"I'm about to go shopping for groceries, Natsu and Happy ate all my food after we came back from a mission," she remembers the mess, putting on a face.

Gray laughs at the image, "stupid Flame Brain…" Gray trails off.

"Anyway care to join me," Lucy starts walking then turns back, "you coming?"

Gray quickly stands up catching up to her, Lucy does her shopping just handing Gray all the groceries. He was silent the entire time only thinking of Lucy, the way she interacted with people, smiled at them, laughed with them and although she was buying her groceries she made sure it was the food her friends loved, "do you prefer frozen affogato or frozen yogurt with caramelized bananas?" she looks at him with those big brown eyes.

Gray take a while to answer, "Both of them," Gray had had a mind blank looking at Lucy.

As they were walking Lucy had been going on about how annoying Natsu was being, "… then he broke the glasses, and happy could only say 'aye sir' although Natsu did clean it up. Then out of nowhere Loki popped making a scene flirting with me, Natsu got jealous spitting fireballs at Loki," Lucy sighed, "but either way I like him."

Gray looked at Lucy shocked did she say I like him meaning Natsu? Well Gray had always had an idea I mean the two almost seemed inseparable, "like him?"

Lucy blushed not realizing what she had said, "No, no and no," she laughed awkwardly, than admitting it, "yeah I like Natsu a lot but he's way too dense."

Why did Gray feel like someone had placed a spear in his heart, right in the depths of where his feelings for Lucy fell? "What if somebody else liked you?"

"Don't be silly," Lucy blushed red at Gray's question, "like whom?" Lucy asked curious just as they arrived at her home.

Gray took his time to answer as they placed the groceries on the table then a certain Dragon Slayer popped up on the window sill with a cheeky smile, "hey Luce," Natsu took a look at Gray, "what's Ice Princess doing here?"

Gray P.O.V

I completely ignored Natsu on the window sill although I didn't like the idea that he was always at Lucy's house barging in when he liked, "maybe I like you Lucy…" I put on a smirk.

I noticed the red coming out of Natsu eyes.

Lucy shoved me playfully then harder and harder, "you make me laugh," she fell into an awkward laughter, "Gray you're not serious… right?"

I just shrug exiting the home, what was I getting toying with Lucy's feelings like that not like she even felt the same way, she was probably just overwhelmed by my words.

Normal P.O.V

"Luce, do you like Gray?" Natsu spoke seriously with sad eyes.

Lucy looked at the mage she had had a crush on for a very long time but couldn't help but think of what Gray had said, did he mean it or was he just being cocky? Lucy had Natsu in her life and until now she felt like she had never needed any other man to protect her or care for her. Lucy was now trapped between her feelings for Natsu and Gray, how was things going to play out?
