Gray thought about all that's happened. Juvia's kiss, Lucy gone missing, Gajeel's warning. Now all he needs to do is fix it all. The problem is...he doesn't know how to do that! He can't just go find Lucy and tell her to give him advice or propose to Juvia on the spot! Hell he can't even tell her how he feels. He just can't announce it...he...can? Before he even had a chance to reciprocate his thoughts, he heard the most scariest sound he could here in his whole entire life. Sobbing, he heard it loud and clear...sobbing. He was horrible with crying, wailing, shouting, and tearing up, but worst of all sobbing. He always made girls and children cry. He didn't try to! They just cry! But...here it was on his path. He walked slowly to the sound. He was scared, what would we do once he got there? He didn't even know who it was, what if it was a random girl? What would he do then? Just then, he saw blonde hair and pink jacket wrapped around in a scarf. 'Lucy?! I found her! Lucy!'. Then he saw Natsu sitting close by her, arms wrapped around her chest and back, eyes closed, both bundled up. Natsu already found her, and now she was okay. 'Natsu...thank you.' He closed his eyes and sighed. Once he left he sat on a rock near by the guild. "This isn't like you Gray.". Gray looked up to the voice, Erza. "Sorry, I know, at least Natsu found Lucy." Erza smiled and chuckled a bit. "Yeah, I know. But what about you?". He was surprised, Erza did comfort him a bunch but she never really asked him what was wrong, she knew most of the time. But now, he didn't think she knew this time. 

"I am just worried, Natsu got his life in order. He knows who he loves and his friends and what to do to fix his problems.". Erza had a puzzled look on her face. "Don't you have those things? You know who you love and your friends and what to do." He sighed. "No Erza, I don't. I-I can't do anything like that. He loves Lucy, Lucy loves him. He loves his friends, they got his back. He defends everyone, and protects the innocent. I on the other hand, can't say my feelings, I can't have the courage to just take risks. I...can't do anything." Erza laughed out loud. Gray had a blush in his face. "W-why are you laughing?!" She stopped laughing and smiled at him for a bit. "Gray, you just explained to me exactly what you are. And i'll tell you, your wrong. You love Juvia, she loves you. You protect the innocent and your loved ones and your comrades. You also go to an extent to try your best at saying your feelings. You don't need to all the time. Everyone is different! You, just needed guiding back on your path. Love...is a beautiful thing....and...not all can require it." She held her chest, sad look in her eyes. 'Jellal'. Gray smiled warmly, and patted her on the back. "Heh, thanks Erza. And well, everyone can require love, you just need the right people to help you capture it." She got watery eyes. 'Ah, no. well, she hasn't cried in a while...who cares right now about that .' Gray wasn't afraid of watery eyes anymore. He never was, he was just afraid that he was the one who caused it. Gray comforted his friend on the rock. He now knew he could tell Juvia he loves her, and now he knew he could require love, warm love. Juvia was the right person for that. 'Juvia...'
