Lucy’s P.O.V.

Toss and turn, fluff pillows up, adjust blankets, adjust pillows, find a reasonably comfortable position, and try to fall asleep. Wake back up for an unknown reason, and repeat the cycle. How many times have I done this tonight? Four times? Five? I’ve lost track at this point of the night. I roll over to check the time, thinking that my alarm will go off soon…

3:02 a.m.

…Crap. My alarm is set to go off at 9:00 a.m. so Gray and I have time to head back to town in the afternoon, and with my sleeping pattern and writer's block that has been bugging me for 6 months now, there’s no way I’m gonna look well-rested to Gray. Knowing him, he’ll delay our trip back just to make sure that both of us are 100% healthy.

*Knock Knock Knock*

Who’s knocking on my door at this hour? I clamber out of bed and head to the door, only to open it and find Gray on the other side. “Heya Lucy, did I wake you?”, Gray said in a tone that sounded a little scared. I shook my head, “No you didn’t, Gray. I actually was just using the bathroom, so I was already awake. Why are you down here, if I may ask?”

“I… um… I couldn’t sleep. This place reminds me too much of my old house, so I was wondering if you wanted to head home earlier than planned? I can find a carriage to take us back to Magnolia.” I stopped him before he could continue rambling on. “If that’s what will make you comfortable Gray. I’ll pack up the rest of my stuff and get changed.” Gray nods his head, and before he turns away to go find a carriage, he asks one more question. “Hey, babe? Is it alright if I stay with you for the night when we get back?” I blush at the sudden question, turn to him and give him a smile. “Of course, my brave little polar bear. I would love that.” He glares at me for the nickname, internally cursing Natsu for giving me that idea. I giggle at his response and head over to him to give him a kiss on the cheek. As soon as I hear the door shut, I start changing my clothes. One question pops into my mind as I look down at my engagement ring while I’m changing…

Thank youuu! I am so sorry about how long this took :( but I hope you like these :)  !! I apologise in advance if these get a little shippy, but I’ll try not to let them :)

What they smell like:

Gray would use a really clean smelling deodrant, but also just soap :P

How they sleep (sleeping position, schedule, etc):

Gray sleeps on his side, straight down the edge of the bed. That is until he starts sharing with Natsu and he realises he likes to cuddle (this also keeps him on the bed cause Natsu is a starfish sleeper)

What music they enjoy:

Gray loves listening to the instrumental soundtracks to films as well as whatever Natsu is listening to at the time, has a (not so) secret love for pop music

How much time they spend getting ready every morning:

Probably a bit too much time, despite the fact he strips routinely throughout the day

Their favorite thing to collect:

It’s not exactly a collection, but he loves buying new exotic paint colours (I headcanon Gray paints/draws in his spare time - artist Gray gives me life)

Left or right-handed:

Right handed :)

Religion (if any):

Nahh, Gray used to believe in something when he was younger but then gradually lost faith as everything kept going wrong for him, now he has his Fairy Tail family, and Natsu

Favorite sport:

He is fascinated with Ice-Skating (and not just because of his maker magic), he also gets really into watching the hockey with Natsu

Favorite touristy thing to do when traveling (museums, local food, sightseeing, etc):

He loves the old buildings in the different places they go to, and like Natsu, but maybe not as much, the food :) He loves just sitting with Natsu looking at the view

Favorite kind of weather: 

Winter is his favourite but he loves spring too - in truth, any weather is sparring weather so it doesn’t really bother him

A weird/obscure fear they have:

Gray doesn’t do clowns. Ever since he was a kid, it was a flat out no to clowns...also he’s a little weird around crabs

The carnival/arcade game they always win without fail:

Gray is amazing at pretty much all the arcade games, he finds the magnet fishing amusing, he also wins all the target/aim related games - won Natsu a giant stuffed dragon once

‘lazy morning kisses before they’ve even opened their eyes, still mumbling half-incoherently, not wanting to wake up’

Thank youuu! Mannn, here come the headcanons :) I live for sleepy kisses! Though I may have missed the prompt slightly I realise…but this is cute as heck. These two are cute as heck.

Gray had always beenan early riser even before he’d started dating Natsu. Too much to do with solittle time. Now, though Gray still woke early, instead of getting out of bedstraight away he now would just lie there. There was not whing he loved morethan watching as Natsu woke up too. There was something so pensive about thesleeping Dragon Slayer. Something you never saw when he was awake. Grayshuffled closer, his eyes taking in every familiar detail of his boyfriend’sface. Nothing had changed, not since the last morning, but Gray wanted to lookagain. To take in every detail, count the smattering of freckles which spreadover Natsu’s nose and cheeks, it was a privilege which never grew old.

A small smiletwitched at Gray’s lips as Natsu mumbled in his sleep, so close to waking too.Natsu prised his eyes open a little.

“Morning sunshine.”Gray whispered, only to receive a glare in return.

Natsu’s expressionsoftened as Gray lent forward to gently kiss him on the nose. A sleepy yawn waspulled from his lips, followed by a grin wide grin.

“Better?” Graysmiled.
