Natsu's POV:

I shoved more and more food into my mouth, drowning my sorrows in a million calories. My pocket, which earlier this morning was filled with jewels was now nearly empty after spending all the money I had made on both the food I was eating now, and buying food for home. I sighed and sat back in my chair. I wish I could just forget the events that had taken place these last few days.

"Heeey, Natsu," suddenly, Lucy's blonde head popped up from nowhere. She had an awkward smile on her face, so I could tell something was up, "How are things?" Oh God... She's awful at acting.

"Luce, if he told you, you had better tell me," I glared at her, and Lucy giggled and stuck out her tongue.

"You caught me," she nervously scratched the back of her head, "You're not mad, are you?"

"You're not the one who plowed me..."

"So, I'll take that as a no then?" Lucy smiled and pulled up a chair beside mine, "So what was it like? I've always wondered what Gray would be like in bed."

"I don't remember it at all," I sighed.

"Not even a tiny bit?"

"Nope," I took another bite of food, "And I don't think I could if I wanted to. Besides, if you really want to know, go figure it out for yourself."

"As much as I'd love to," Lucy said in a joking tone, "He's obviously gay.. and I don't exactly like sausage either."

Her and I both laughed similtaniously. It was great how we could joke around about such a serious topic.

"So, what are you going to do about him?" Lucy asked me seemingly out of nowhere, and I found myself at a loss for words.

"About who?"

"Gray."

"I have to do something about him?"

"Look, I feel sorry for you, and all, but he's actually in love with you... it's cruel to at least not give him closure," she explained as nicely as she could.

"And how do I do that?"
