Gray's POV:

"Thank you for having us a night, but we really must be going now," I bowed to Chiaki and her grandparents, "Your hospitality will not be forgotten, I assure you."

"Yeah, thanks," Natsu added. I noticed Chiaki move a bit closer to Natsu and whisper something to him. I strained my ears, but no matter how hard I tried, I just wasn't close enough to hear. When she moved back, Natsu was blushing, and Chiaki was giggling. Dear God, what did she say?

Natsu's POV:

"You're lucky," Chiaki playfully whispered, "Gray is super hot. If I had a boyfriend like that, I'd be all over him."

I felt my face heat up. Chiaki smiled and hopped back to stand beside her grandparents. I quickly moved next to Gray. Honestly, I was happy to be leaving. We still have a mission to do.

"C'mon, Natsu," Gray turned out the door, "Let's go."

"Okay," I obeyed, "Thank you again, Chiaki." I lowered my head in gratitude before following Gray.

"I talked to her grandfather," Gray said taking a piece of paper out of his pocket, "He gave me this map. It might help us find the village. B-By the way... what did Chiaki say to you?... Before we left she whispered something to you."

Hahaha Hahaha... I laughed inside my head. "Wouldn't you like to know? Heh! I'm starting to think this whole trip was just a ploy to get in my pants.. mmhh!!" My head was suddenly grabbed, and Gray's lips were on mine. W-what the fuck!?! He pulled away soon after that; his expression unchanging. "What the hell was that for?"
