“and I can’t change, even if I tried. Even if I wanted to”
I Take Pride In What I Am 2019 Prompt: “and I can’t change, even if I tried. Even if I wanted to.” Pairing: Gray x Natsu
Tumblr media
I know that I can’t change our past...
Tumblr media
The pain and loss we experienced will always be a part of us..... 
Tumblr media
For better or worse it made us who we are and it brought us together. Maybe it was because you drew some of Erza’s attention from me or because you were fun to fight with but you soon became very important to me.
Tumblr media
I used to worry you’d leave on a job and never return. You were so sad and lost back then, and any rumor of Igneel sent you flying off on a wild goose chase with no other thought in your empty little head. So I made it my mission to watch over you, to make sure you always came home to me. I never stopped to wonder why.
Tumblr media
All I knew was that our stupid rivalry challenged me to become stronger, to fight harder. To be better. And although neither of us would ever admit it we became friends.
Tumblr media
We made a surprisingly good team. You protected me from my self destructive tendencies and I kept you from doing anything too stupid.
Tumblr media
Fighting by your side was exhilarating, and for the first time since Ur sacrificed herself for me, I found I craved life rather than death. I’m not really sure when that turned to love.
Tumblr media
All I knew was that I wanted to be as important to you as you were to me. I wanted to be the one to soothe away your hurt and protect you from your enemies. Like you did for me. 
Tumblr media
I still don’t know how you feel about me, but maybe someday soon I’ll find the courage to ask you.
Tumblr media
I know I’ve made many mistakes, and I can't change them. Even if I tried, even if I wanted to. But I will do whatever it takes to keep fighting by your side, forever and always.

Fairy Tail Pride
Day 27 Prompt: “Underneath is the same love” Paring: Erza x nb! Lucy Additional Notes: For @shell-senji, who I hope doesn’t mind a little tweaking to make things fit best for Pride.
                                                              ~*~
“You know, I’ve been thinking a lot lately.”
Erza didn’t look up from the rhythmic strokes up and down her sword, “When are you not thinking, Lucy?”
“Ha, good point. That’s why we’re so great because you’re the brawns and I’m the brains. But I mean, I’ve been thinking about… serious stuff.”
“Mmm?” the redhead glanced up, catching her tone. Carefully setting things down, she laid her hands in her lap and focused on the Celestial Wizard. They’d been dating long enough she knew when Lucy was thinking about something important. “What have you been thinking about.”
Nervously, Lucy fiddled with the hem of her shirt, and that made Erza curious but apprehensive. And a bit hopeful. They’d been dating for quite awhile, and while it hadn’t been explicitly discussed, Erza felt like it was getting to that point.
“Well… Erza,” Lucy’s warm brown eyes searched her face apprehensively. “What if I said, well, that I might not be a woman.”
Taken aback and pretty lost, Erza blinked, not sure what to say.
“I mean, like,” Lucy fumbled, voice growing smaller, “I don’t really feel like a woman… it doesn’t feel… right. For me, I mean.”
“So you feel like a man? You do not feel right in your body and need to change it?”
Lucy snort-laughed and waved her hands, “I should’ve seen that coming. No, no, um, not that either. I definitely don’t feel like a guy. I feel like… me...”
Erza cocked an eyebrow, “So you are Lucy-gender.”
“A little like that, but, I… was thinking about changing my pronouns a little, to see what fits? And maybe do something with my name. Nothing drastic, just a name that suits me more. Try some new outfits. Erza, I want to be my most authentic self, if that makes sense.”
Erza considered that with a small nod, “Seems reasonable. So instead of my girlfriend, I would call you…?”
“Partner, I guess,” Lucy replied. “I don’t know. We’d have to talk about it.”
“I suppose so.”
Erza added honestly, “You know I am going to be entirely awkward about this. And I will possibly make some big mistakes... in public...”
“Erza, you’re awkward about everything; that’s your embarrassing-but-oh-so-loveable charm. So... you’re not… angry?”
The redhead’s lips quirked and she opened her arms for a hug, “Underneath is the same love.”
“You stole that from a poetry book,” Lucy accused with a laugh, throwing herself into the woman’s arms. “Or a song.”
“Fortune cookie,” Erza admitted wrapping Lucy up with both arms, “But the sentiment still stands.”
“True,” Lucy mumbled into her neck smiling with the feeling everything was going to be all right. It was a feeling to fall in love with given by the one Lucy loved the most, and Lucy wouldn’t trade this moment for the world.

I don't need you to promise me the World, the Moon or the Sun.
I don't need you to offer me a house or silly jewelry.
We could have nothing at all as long as you promise me that we're together, because there's nothing that I need more than you.

Fairy Tail Pride Day 5
Hello. Today I had too much work to be able to write something, and essentially covered today's prompt yesterday. So instead, I will contribute to the fandom with an art think I've been working on for a few days. The gender identity/Seuxality flags are by no means canon and my personal opinion.

5 Sentence Story: “First time he kissed a boy”
It was just like fighting, he told himself with another push forward, another tingle of confidence running under his skin and making his cheeks burn bright. With every nerve coming alive, he could feel a heat he had never imagined from someone so cold, passion previously so withdrawn, love from a lifetime of hate. It was hard to believe something that felt so natural had been stumbled upon in a drunken lust, both young men escaping from powerful women and somehow ending up in each other’s arms. Natsu didn’t regret a second of it; not at that moment, not the next morning, not for a lifetime. ~~~~~~~~
This was my first 5-sentence prompt and I did really want to do SOMETHING for Pride so here we go :)

I Take Pride In What I Am 2019 Prompt: “First Time He Kissed a Boy” Pairing: Gray x Natsu
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
The first thing Gray saw when he entered the guild hall was Natsu arm wrestling Elfman, a carefree smile on his face, their table surrounded by other members of their ragtag family. Bets were written on a board, and Cana was collecting jewels, while Gajeel seemed to be awaiting his turn, yelling encouragement to Elfman while trying to psych Natsu out. Happy's cheerful support could be heard loudest of all.
Things had seemingly gone back to normal. If nothing had happened the previous day, Gray would have made his way over, shouting encouragement at Natsu while warning him not to make their team look bad.
And Natsu would have smiled at him and told him he was all fired up, and it was in the bag, or something cocky like that while Gray let the heat from that smile warm his otherwise cold body. But yesterday had happened, and Natsu was avoiding him. Gray didn't want to make things more awkward between them than they already were, so with a heavy heart, he made his way over to the bar to join Loke and Lucy.
“Why don’t you kiss him, Elfman?” Gajeel harassed Natsu with a resounding gihi. “He’ll just run home like a scared little girl.”
“A real man doesn’t resort to trickery,” Elfman responded, his voice strained as he attempted to overpower Natsu without resorting to one of his beast arm takeovers.
Natsu, however, was not amused. To the dismay of everyone who had bet against him, he promptly defeated Elfman, getting up from his chair with enough force to topple it on its side. Overcome by rage, he headed straight for Gajeel, “You think that’s funny, asshole?”
Natsu shoved Gajeel as hard as he could, making the large dragon slayer careen into one of the guild's walls. As soon as Gajeel righted himself, he came at Natsu, both fists at the ready.
“What the hell’s your problem, afraid you liked it?” Gajeel taunted, thrilled to have gotten under the Salamander’s skin.
That was too much for Natsu, Gray could see the outrage in the eyes he knew so well, how could he not when he'd been reading them since childhood. But he saw something else too, and it startled him. Natsu looked unsure, and that was very unusual.
Natsu managed to exercise restraint, stopping himself from punching Gajeel as he so clearly wanted to do, opting to mutter, “You’re not worth it.” before exiting the guild with Happy, the door slamming behind them.
Gajeel shouted at Natsu through the door, “Just like a little girl.”
Gray was pissed. Great, there went his idea of letting things go back to normal before approaching Natsu. He got up from his bar stool and charged towards Gajeel, “What the hell did you do that for?”
Gajeel sneered at him, “What, now you’re going to fight your little boyfriend’s battles for him?”
Gray didn't bother to respond with words. Instead, he punched Gajeel in the stomach, causing him to double over. Gajeel straightened up, glaring at Gray while turning his body into iron and approaching him menacingly. "I was just playing with him, it's not my fault he's so sensitive. But if you wanna have a go, I'm ready."
“Dammit Gajeel, this is already hard enough without your bullshit,” Gray growled, “Just back the hell off.”
“You will both stop this foolishness this instant,” Erza scolded, placing herself between the two mages.
“I ain’t one of the two fairies, I’m not scared of you,” Gajeel snapped.
“Would you like to have a go?” Erza’s smile was amused, but there was no doubt as to the seriousness of her challenge. Erza never volunteered to fight in the guild, she was usually the one to put a stop to it.
Gajeel considered her challenge for a moment before quickly backing down. He put his arms up in a mocking gesture of surrender and turned away.
“By the way, Gajeel,” Erza waited until Gajeel stopped to look at her and pointed at her guild mark, “We’re all fairies.” She chuckled at the scowl on Gajeel’s face before going off in search of Mira.
“No sense of humor,” Gajeel complained before going to ask Elfman if he wanted another match.
Cana had finished distributing all the winnings and came over to where Gray was still standing, nudging him to follow her back to the bar. She put a bunch of jewels in a bag and handed it to him. “Here are Natsu’s winnings, why don’t you take them to him?”
“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Gray remarked, “You saw how he reacted, I should probably stay away from him for a while.”
“That’s a terrible idea,” Loke chimed in, ready as always to offer his advice.
“I’m still mad at you, you promised me you’d stay out of it,” Gray reminded the Celestial Spirit, “What the hell did you tell him anyway?”
“Do you really want to know?” Loke grinned, waggling his eyebrows.
Gray thought about all the things Loke could have possibly told Natsu and shuddered. He’d been on the receiving end of Loke’s conversations enough times to have a pretty good idea. “Nevermind.”
They remained in amicable silence until Lucy spoke up. "If anyone should be upset here, it's me. Why wouldn't you tell me?" Lucy looked down at her hands, refusing to let Gray see her expression, "I thought we were friends."
Gray flinched at the sadness in her voice, but he answered her honestly, “Given how you feel about him, I...uhm, didn’t think you’d want to know.”
“Oh,” Lucy replied, her voice small as she admitted. “I didn’t think you knew.”
Gray didn’t have the heart to tell her that everyone in the guild knew how she felt about Natsu, except perhaps for Natsu, and that was only because they’d threatened Happy countless times to keep it to himself.
Gray sighed, “I’m sorry, Lucy. I never really planned on telling him.”
"No, don't apologize!" Lucy protested, finally looking up, and despite the tears welling in her eyes, she managed to smile at Gray, "If you love him, he should know.”
“Shouldn’t you also tell him then?” Gray pointed out, not feeling comfortable with how the conversation was going.
Lucy bit her lip, “I don’t think that’s a good idea, besides I’m fairly sure he doesn’t feel the same way.”
“You know Lucy, I’d be more than happy to show you a good time,” Loke piped in with a grin.
“Stay away from her!” Gray and Cana exclaimed in unison, making Loke chuckle into his drink.
Cana waited until Lucy left to go talk to Levy, to bring the topic back up, “You really should go talk to him, if you don’t do it soon you’re just going to end up beating the crap out of each other.”
“I don’t know…,” Gray hedged, realistically he figured that was going to happen anyway, it’s how they communicated.
“Tell you what, why don’t I do a reading for you?” Cana feigned innocence as she grabbed her cards out of her purse.
Gray snorted, "Riiight, like I'd trust you with those." He took a deep breath, and before he could change his mind, he reached his hand out for the bag of Natsu's winnings.
“That’s my boy,” Cana cheered, placing the bag in his hand, “Go get your man!”
Gray rolled his eyes at his friend.
"If you want my advice," Loke began, but Gray covered his mouth with a thin sheet of ice.
“Don’t finish that sentence,” Gray waved obnoxiously at Loke as he tried to talk around the ice. He left the guild in search of Natsu.
Xxx
Natsu had left the guild with no clear direction in mind. He was pissed, he’d been having a good time, had even managed to get his mind off what had happened with the Ice Princess for the first time that day, but Gajeel had to go and ruin it like he ruined everything. Stupid iron freak.
He stopped, trying to decide where he wanted to go, his earlier injuries had been mostly healed, but they were still a bit uncomfortable. He was deep in thought when he felt Happy nudge him.
“Natsu, what’s wrong?” Happy was watching him, his eyes big and searching.
“What do you mean?” Natsu had no idea what his Exceed was referring to.
"Back at the guild, it felt like you were overreacting," Happy explained, he knew Natsu had a temper, but he usually didn't act that way with his friends, and even though he and Gajeel didn't always see eye to eye, they were still friends.
“Oh that,” Natsu replied sheepishly, “I just have some stuff to think about.”
"Wanna talk about it?" Happy's eyes glimmered with hope at the thought of being helpful, and Natsu couldn't help but smile at his partner.
"Not really," Natsu said honestly, but when he saw Happy's crestfallen expression, he was quick to add, "But I still have to, I can't avoid it forever."
“Aye, sir!” Happy agreed, although he still had no idea what was going on.
Natsu looked around to get his bearings and realized he'd unconsciously been walking towards Lucy's apartment. Stupid! Lucy was the last person he should be talking to about this situation, as much as he would appreciate her advice, that would be unfair of him.
The sound of the running water was managing to ease away the remainder of his anger, and he decided to just sit on the edge of the canal for a bit. Happy settled on his lap, staring up at him.
"So, what happened?"
Natsu looked down at his Exceed, touched by his obvious concern. As much as he took care of Happy, it always surprised him how much he got back in return. He hugged Happy to his chest before letting go and thinking about the Exceed's question, what had happened?
"You know that July 7th is a rough day for me," He began, smiling as the Exceed nodded gravely, his eyebrows scrunched in concentration.
"Well, yesterday I didn't feel like being alone, so I decided to go to the guild, I ended up drinking a lot, and then Gray showed up, but he wasn't as big of a prick as usual," Natsu smiled, he'd liked that part.
As much as he enjoyed their little rivalry he’d noticed he really enjoyed the quieter moments they’d been having during jobs as well. Being on the same team with Erza had forced them to pretend to get along and somewhere along the way it had stopped being an act for him.
During their time on Galuna Island, Natsu had gotten a glimpse of a Gray he’d never really gotten a chance to know before. It had surprised him how much Gray had managed to hide from them throughout the years, but it also explained so much about who Gray was.
There might have been some feelings that had started then, feelings he purposefully never thought about, knowing full well their relationship was already complicated enough.
He noticed Happy looking at him impatiently and realized he’d been quiet for a while. What had he been saying? Oh yeah!
"Anyway, we started drinking, and he asked me to tell him some stories about Igneel, so I did," Natsu continued, remembering how much they'd laughed. He tried to visualize what Gray's face had looked like then, if there had been any indication of what was going to happen, but he'd been drunk enough to not have a clear recollection.
"I'm sorry I missed that," Happy piped up earnestly, "I love those stories!"
"I know you do buddy, maybe I'll tell you some later," Natsu petted Happy, still feeling serene.
“I don’t get it Natsu, nothing you’ve said so far is bad.”
"I'm not done," Natsu reminded him, Happy nodded, continuing to wait patiently for Natsu to tell his story.
"Anyway, I don't remember what set me off," Natsu scratched the back of his neck, deep in thought, "But we'd kept drinking, and I guess talking about Igneel so much, it made me miss him that much more, and I started to get sad, and Gray...Gray tried to comfort me."
“That was nice of him.”
"Yeah it was, but when he tried to comfort me I… I don't know, it felt right? It's been a long time since anyone showed me they cared like that, so I let myself hold on to it, and that's when it happened."
And looking back, if Gray was really in love with him, then Natsu had certainly been sending him mixed signals at that point. His cheeks reddened as he remembered how he’d nuzzled up against Gray.
Why had he done that? Had he wanted something more to happen?
All he knew was it had felt good to just let go, to let Gray make him feel worthy of being loved. To allow Gray's scent to wash over him until he was just as drunk on it as he was on the ridiculous amounts of alcohol he'd ingested. When he'd finally let go, there was something more he'd wanted, he'd looked at Gray with eyes full of it...
“Natsu,” Happy whined impatiently, “What happened?”
Natsu shook away the thoughts he’d been having, avoiding Happy’s curious gaze, “Gray kissed me.”
“GRAY KISSED YOU?” Happy screamed, too shocked to even go into his teasing trademark.
"Not so loud," Natsu hissed, eyes quickly darting to see if anyone had heard.
“Gray kissed you?” Happy whispered comically, immediately covering his mouth afterward.
Natsu rolled his eyes in response to Happy’s antics but nodded.
“What did you do, did you punch him?” Happy asked knowingly.
“No, I, uhm sorta kissed him back before pushing him away,” Natsu admitted, he could feel it coming, could almost see the internal struggle Happy was facing.
“You looooooooooooooooove him!”
“Shut up, I do not!” Natsu harrumphed noisily as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"I think Happy's right," A soft voice spoke from behind him, and Natsu didn't have to turn around to recognize Lucy. He'd forgotten where he was sitting, and now he didn't know what to do. Water tended to dampen his sense of smell, he'd never sensed her coming.
Lucy sat next to him, watching him for a few minutes as if making her mind up about something. It made Natsu even more uncomfortable than he already was.
"It's okay you know," Lucy surprised him with her words, especially considering the feelings he knew she held for him.
“What do you mean?”
"I mean, it's okay to like other guys, even if they are Gray," Lucy tried to inject some levity, but it was too much, she only managed to look slightly pained.
“I don’t know,” Natsu repeated for the, well he’d lost count really of how many times he’d tried to impress that on others.
“Well, keep going, what happened after the kiss?” Lucy urged him.
“I don’t really think that’s a great idea considering…,” Natsu cursed himself for his stupidity, he shouldn’t have said that.
“Considering what? My feelings?” Lucy held his gaze valiantly, but Natsu could only look away.
"You don't have to pretend anymore. It's okay that you don't feel the same way. I think, maybe, I've always known," Lucy said calmly, adding with a sad smile, "But you're still my friend, and I want you to be happy, so let's work this out 'cause let's face it, you're terrible at feelings."
She laughed at her words, and it was a real laugh even if it was quiet, and Natsu could only whisper I’m sorry as he put his arm around her in a half hug.
Lucy closed her eyes, letting herself enjoy Natsu's warmth, it wasn't what she'd hoped for, but she knew his affection for her was real.
She couldn't ask him to fake something he didn't feel just to make her happy. She knew that as unlikely as it seemed, Gray and Natsu were right for each other. They understood each other better than anyone else, and she'd noticed how they'd sought each other out more and more since Galuna, she'd just somehow failed to connect the dots.
Lucy nudged him, "Come on, spill it, what happened after the kiss?"
"I asked him why he'd kissed me, and he told me it was because he was in love with me," Natsu got the words out as quickly as he could, hoping that if he did so, they wouldn't affect him as much. No such luck.
“And you ran away?”
Natsu nodded, knowing there was no point in denying it.
“Why did you run away?”
"I don't know, it was too much to take in, I guess. Yesterday was supposed to be about Igneel, and I wasn't prepared to hear that."
Lucy thought about Natsu's words and felt something was missing, she could almost glimpse it, but it still eluded her.
“I shouldn’t have told you like that, it was wrong of me,” Yet another voice surprised him from behind. How many times had he been ambushed today?
Damn it, he really needed to stay away from water when he was upset, one of these days it was likely to get him killed.
“Can I sit down?” Gray asked, not wanting to force himself on Natsu again.
Natsu looked up at the reason for all of his confusion and sighed. He was too tired to fight. It had been a long ass emotional day, so instead, he patted the spot on the other side of him.
Gray sat and handed him a bag full of jewels, “Cana wanted me to give these to you.”
"Thanks," Nasu replied, setting the bag down next to him. His heart and mind were full of uncertainty as he gazed upon the person he'd spent most of the day avoiding.
Lucy could feel the tension in the air, “Wow, look at the time! Happy, why don’t you come home with me?” She grabbed the Exceed before he had a chance to protest, waving goodbye to her teammates before hurrying home.
“Listen,“ Gray began, looking down at his hands as he flexed his fingers into the patterns he used to strengthen them for his maker magic, “I was drunk and not thinking properly. You’re right, yesterday should have been all about you and Igneel, and I shouldn't have made it about me and my feelings. That wasn't fair of me."
“And I want you to know, it’s okay if you don’t feel the same way or even if you don’t know what you feel,” Gray assured him in an even voice, “I don’t need an answer today, I’ve had months to think about this. I know I just sprung it on you. ”
Natsu watched Gray intently, listening to his every word but also letting himself really look at the man sitting next to him. The fit body he continually sparred against, the mind he loved to share insults with, the deep eyes that always made him wonder what he was thinking.
Except Gray was being open with him for once, no insults, no games, just honesty. He was still talking, but Natsu had stopped listening, too intent on trying to figure himself out.
“Why did you kiss me?” Natsu interrupted suddenly.
"I was drunk, and I wasn't thinking," Gray repeated.
“Don’t give me that, I’m the impulsive one, something made you do it.”
Gray gazed at the boats that were traveling on the canal as he thought about what had really possessed him to kiss his rival. “It was something in your eyes, It felt like you wanted me to.”
Natsu thought about it and came to the conclusion that Gray was right. Maybe it hadn't been a kiss that he'd wanted but the love that came with it. The love Gray had shown him since the moment he'd sat down to drink with him.
Gray had managed to get through to him, and he'd done it on Natsu's worst day. He'd made Natsu believe he was worthy of the kind of love he'd felt with Igneel.
Gray had accepted Natsu as he was from the very beginning. Never attempting to change him, Gray had engaged him time and again, in all the ways Natsu understood best.
The panic Natsu had felt on Galuna when he'd realized what Gray was planning on doing had been like no other feeling he'd ever experienced before, barring waking up to find Igneel had left him behind. It had been the realization that if he let Gray cast Iced Shell, he'd be losing a part of himself that he considered more important than anything else.
And that's when it hit him, the reason he'd been so confused about whether he might be in love with Gray or not was that he'd already been in love with him for a while. He'd just never given a name to it. Natsu thought with embarrassment of all the shameless taunts and fights he'd engaged in just to keep Gray near. He'd acted in ways that were even more obvious than Lucy, and he couldn't help but wonder how many people had figured it out before he did.
“Do it again,” Natsu demanded, catching Gray completely off guard.
“What?” Gray answered dumbly, confused by whatever the hell was going on inside Natsu’s head.
Screw it!
Natsu ran his fingers through Gray's hair tugging it firmly as he pulled the ice mage towards him. He pressed his lips against Gray's, who was still too confused to respond. Natsu didn't let that bother him, he closed his eyes and nibbled Gray's bottom lip, excited when he felt Gray join the kiss. It was the first time he had kissed a boy, and he found that he really liked it. They separated a moment, the position they were in too uncomfortable to continue for long.
Gray gazed at him, one eyebrow raised as he seemed to be asking what brought that about.
'You were taking too long," Natsu complained.
“Are you sure about this? I told you, I don’t need an answer today,” Gray reminded him.
“I know, but why wait when I already have one?” Natsu grinned mischievously.
"Let's get out of here," Natsu grabbed his bag of earnings, feeling its weight to see how much money he had. "You hungry?"
Gray nodded, still baffled as to what was happening.
“Let’s go,” He grabbed Gray’s hand and squeezed it, warning him, “I’ve never done this before, and I’m not great with feelings.”
“Neither am I, ” Gray replied, returning Natsu’s hand squeeze, “But I’d like to try it out.”
They began to make their way towards the business sector of town, walking hand in hand but not saying much, both trying to figure out what they were doing and how not to fuck it up.
They walked past a bakery that the girls of the guild loved to frequent, not noticing Cana, Mira, and Erza sitting at their table near the window. Mira and Cana smiled happily at the peaceful look on both men's faces, not noticing that Erza had left their table.
“GRAY!” Erza charged after them.
"Oh, dear," Mira laughed at her girlfriend's antics.
"Should we go stop her?" Cana asked although she wasn't particularly in the mood to chase after them.
"Nah, I've learned it's best not to get in between those three, they understand each other quite well," Mira said as she continued to eat her slice of cake calmly.
Outside, Natsu and Gray finally heard Erza screaming after them, and when Natsu stopped to see what she wanted, Gray tugged at his hand desperately.
“What are you doing?” Gray yelled, “Run, you fool!”
Natsu looked at him uncomprehendingly, so Gray pulled him behind him as he made a run for it.
“Get back here Gray, I told you if you started dating Natsu, we’d have to have a talk!”
Natsu began to laugh, finally understanding what was going on.
“Stop laughing you moron, you’re slowing us down!” Gray complained desperately.
But he couldn't help it, so Gray left him behind as Erza charged after him, weapon in hand. Natsu laughed and laughed, watching his friend and boyfriend run through the town.
Yes, he'd lost Igneel, and it had hurt, and he'd most likely never know why. But what he'd gained in Igneel's place wasn't bad. No, it wasn't bad at all!
A/N: I almost feel the need to apologize for how long this came out. Once I knew @oceanwaves-blog liked it I might have wanted to make it extra nice for her.  This is my last entry for this event, it was really fun and I hope people enjoyed what I did! I look forward to reading the other entries. :)

Fairy Tail Pride
Day 22 Prompt: “I’ll suppress my feelings” Pairing: Lucy x MiraJane Additional Notes: For anon, who had the cutest idea for MiraLu. Written under the wire because my time management slipped today. No edit or beta, sorry. @ft-wwtdp
                                                       ~*~
“You know, its pretty obvious,” Gray commented loudly before taking a slurp from his drink. Lucy was trying to keep it cool, hoping he was saying something else was pretty obvious. There were lots of obvious things, lots, and Gray was a smart guy with a big mouth! He cast a look at Lucy - that look that seemed bored on the outside but hid a severe teasing beneath - and repeated louder, “So obvious.”
“Yeah, totally,” Natsu agreed before furrowing his brow, “Wait…”
“You are kind of easy to read, Lucy,” Wendy admitted quietly before Natsu could ruin the game. She fiddled with her straw, “And you’re blushing.”
“You do blush,” Erza added in, more aware than Natsu, but not particularly great at reading the room herself, but happy to chime in anyway. She side-eyed the bar and gave a sly look towards the barmaid who was giggling at something Lisanna said. Lucy’s eyes followed, lured right into the trap like a hapless lamb. Erza nodded with satisfaction, grinning, “Like that.”
“Do not!” Lucy yelped, hands flying to her cheeks out of instinct. The smooth skin burned hot, a dead give away she was turning red. Curse her fair complexion! “It's just… hot…”
“Something is hot anyway,” Gray cut in with a leer and leaned forward, “Air feels fine to me. Natsu?”
“Nah, it's not hot at all Luce. Feels good actually.”
“See, resident fire mage says its not hot, must be something else,” Gray smirked lazily and Lucy was going to kill him. Why’d he have to be so obnoxious? Lucy wished he’d shut up because he was so loud and Mira might hear him and she might not realize it was stupid teasing and she might just realize that Lucy did have a crush on the kind, sexy, generous, pretty, lovely…
She leapt up and slammed her hands down on the table, “I DO NOT HAVE A CRUSH ON MIRA, OKAY!”
The noise in the guide stopped as people turned to stare at the sudden outburst. Gray, the traitor, had a huge palm over his mouth to cover his mirth. Stupid Mr. Cool. Natsu was staring at Lucy like she grew another head. Wendy was giggling and even Erza had on that silly smile she wore when she found Lucy’s behavior cute.
Cana raised an eyebrow from her typical spot over her beer mug.
Lucy wanted to sink into the ground and disappear into the center of the earth. Why’d they have to tease her so much? It wasn’t fair! She didn’t tease them that way… not too much… okay, she did tease Gray… a little… and Erza too…
Gray mouthed, “Payback.”
“Lucy?”
The woman nearly died at that sweet, angelic voice calling her name practically in her ear.
Don’t look, don’t look. If you don’t look, you’ll be okay.
“Oh, hey Mira… you didn’t have to come over…”
A tinkling laugh sent a shiver down Lucy and she nearly bit her lip to keep from saying more.
“I heard my name, but I didn’t quite hear what you were saying…”
Oh nooooo…
“Hehe…” Lucy was trying to think fast and avoid eye contact and scooch her chair out of Mira-range because her body was gravitating towards the other woman without her consent and she was sure she was tomato red still and why were crushes such awful things Her eye latched on Gray’s mug and she blurted out, “I was just saying… uh, how good you wash dishes? Good washer… good dishes… much clean, um, very clean. Gray disagreed, so, uh, I yelled.”
“I don’t think that’s really something to shout about, Lucy,” her goddess tsked and Lucy sunk into the seat at the admonishment.
Gray gave a sigh that suspiciously sounded like it was full of pity and leaned back on his chair making the wood screech a bit in protest, “Yeah, guess I was wrong… about the, uh, disagreement.”
“We’re sorry for making a fuss,” Wendy echoed, remorseful the game went too far, and Erza frowned a bit in Lucy’s peripheral vision. The warrior didn’t say anything to contradict her friends, though she folded her arms across her chest at the fibs.
“That’s okay,” Mira’s voice was honeyed and her perfume drift around Lucy, wrapping up every sense in a cocoon. It was a soothing balm after the rebuke. The Celestial Mage nearly jumped out of her skin as Mira trailed fingers sweetly across her back then gave her shoulder a squeeze, “Thank you for defending my dish washing honor, Lucy. I should get back to work...”
“Now or never,” Gray hissed and the other three nodded.
Gathering up her courage, Lucy whirled, hair flying and face flaming as she grabbed the other woman’s hand to keep her from leaving, “Mira I have a crush on you!”
Mira paused to tilt her head, those perfect pink lips quirked, and she chirped, “Silly Lucy, I knew that.” Leaning over, she let those lips brush across Lucy’s cheek before whispering in her ear, “But I like to hear things out loud. In case there’s a misunderstanding… I hope you’ll remember that… if you decide to act on that crush.”
The guild burst into applause, whistles and hoots of ‘finally!’ Lucy mind was too stuck on Mira’s promising words to even mind. Maybe she wouldn’t kill Gray after all.

I kissed her on the lips, she tasted like this strawberry gloss she always wears and of mint.
I could feel one of her hand on my hip and the other on my cheek.
Her body was warm against mine like we were stars that were colliding and exploding, vibrant with desire.
I never wanted someone like I wanted her.
And it felt so good.
