Natsu's POV:

God... Gray is such a prick, I thought as I watched my breakfast swim away, Ever since he kissed me...

"I don't want to have to worry about you," Gray said as he hung his head.

"You don't have to worry about me; I'm not weak," I argued calmly, "I never once said I needed, or wanted your help.. The only reason I'm here with you is because gramps told me to.."

"Whatever, I don't care," Gray turned away from me and started to walk back towards our camp, "But we should leave soon -- I want to finish this mission and go home soon. I don't know how much longer I can stand being alone with you."

I clenched my teeth in anger. Why does he have to say things like that?! I know we have our differences, but I thought that maybe we had gotten over that.

"Another thing," I muttered to Gray's turned back, "I don't know what you're so pissed off about, but whatever it is, it's not my fault, so stop taking it out on me! Are you mad about that kiss?! Because that was all you, and I've been bloody nice enough not to say a word!!" I felt the heat rise to my cheeks. I was finally telling Gray my thoughts on the situation, and frankly, I was scared to see how he would react.

"I thought I said to forget it happened..."

"But it did happen, and I--" I stood up quickly, "I liked it!"
