Chapter 17
Gray P.O.V
I groaned as I opened my eyes. I felt something warm pressed against my body. I looked and saw Natsu curled up against me. I smiled and kissed his forehead. He looked cute sleeping.
I pulled myself out of bed and went to my dresser. I opened the second drawer and took out a pair of pajama pants. I walked downstairs to find Mom making breakfast.
"Morning sweetie. Breakfast is just about done. Could you take the food to the table please?", she said.
I nodded my head and grabbed the plate of biscuits and the plate of bacon. I walked into the dining room and set the plates down in the middle. I walked back into he kitchen to find Ultear pouring herself a cup of grape juice.
"Why're you up?", I asked her.
"I awoke to the smell of bacon", she replied.
"Lyon spent the night at his friends house so he's not here", said Mom.
I finished setting up the table and minutes later Natsu walked into the kitchen rubbing one of his eyes. He yawed and looked at me with his big brown eyes. He was wearing one of my shirts and it looked adorable on him. It was long enough so that it covered all of the good stuff.
I smiled and walked over to him. I planted another kiss on him.
"I didn't realize that we had company. And that said company slept over", said Mom.
"Come on Natsu, there's so much I've been meaning to ask you", said Ultear pulling him into the dining room.
I turned to face Mom.
"Mind telling me why he spent the night and why he's only wearing a shirt. A shirt that isn't his", she said glaring at me.
"He spent the night but he forgot his stuff", I lied.
"Why do all kids think they're parents are stupid. It's obvious that you and Natsu had sex last night. Now we'll continue this conversation later. The foods getting cold", she said walking out of the kitchen.
I followed her and sat down next to Natsu. Mom made Waffles and Pancakes. I grabbed a few pancakes and some bacon. I ate silently while Natsu and Ultear were in a deep conversation about some Anime.
About an hour after breakfast, Natsu left. Ultear went to nine watch American horror story Hotel, leaving me and Mom alone. She looked angry as we sat down on the couch.
"Gray, I have some news that might upset you", she said Calmly.
"And what is the news", I replied.
"I'm going to Die", she stated.
"Excuse me? I don't think I heard you correctly", I said.
She just sat there and stared at me.
"What do you mean you're going to die?", I continued.
"Last night I met with your father. He wanted to meet and he told me something that scared even me. He told me about the amount of power he had. He's threatened to kill us if you come with me", she explained.
"And what did you do?", I asked.
"I punched him in the throat and told him he said the most cliché thing ever", she replied.
"You can't just go punching Crime lords in the throat Mom. You might've endangered yours and everyone else's lives", I explained.
She slammed her fist down on the coffee table.
"I WILL NOT ALLOW THAT BASTARD TO WALTZ INTO OUR LIVES AND FUCK EVERYTHING UP! IF HE COMES AFTER THIS FAMILY I WILL OPEN UP THE GATES OF HELL ON HIM AND EVERYTHING HE LOVES", she yelled.
And with those words she got up and stormed upstairs. I heard a door slam and I winced. She never yelled like that. Never. Ultear poked her head from around the corner and called my name.
"What is it Ultear?", I asked her.
"I called Yuka to see if Lyon was awake but he said that Lyon never showed up to his house and Then I called Juiva and she said she hasn't seen him. I think Something might've happened to him", she explained.
We waited for at least four hours until the house phone rang. Natsu was long gone before any of this. I picked it up and answered.
"Hello. Is there a Ms. Ur at home?", asked a Lady's voice.
I called Mom down and gave the phone. They talked for a few minutes and she hung up.
"It was Mrs. Winters from next door. Said a body was found at the end of the street ten minutes ago", she explained.
We all walked outside and saw a large crowd of people and police cars at the end of the street. It didn't take long to get there.
"Poor kid. Looks like he was mugged", said Of the neighbors as we got closer.
We made our way to the front and the area in front of us had been taped off. Some officers were putting a body into a bag. I looked to see who was killed and I froze in my spot. Ultear look confused as Mom broke through the police tape and ran for the body.
I dropped to my knees, trying to understand what I saw before me. The body in the bag was Lyon. But he was beaten and bruised. He face was swollen and it looked like he was bleeding a lot.
"DONT TOUCH HIM! DONT TOUCH MY BOY!", yelled Mom running up to Lyons corpse.
The police tried to pull her away but she shook them off. She held Lyons body close to her as she cried. She raised her head and let loose a sound I had head once before. The cry of a wounded mother. I felt arms wrap around me and something wet on my neck. I heard sniffling and knew that it was Ultear.
Mom sat with Lyons body as she rocked back and forth, tears streaming down her face. Lyon was dead. And he was never coming back.
