~~~~~~~~

Previously: 

Juvia paused her walk once again and just stayed in silence. “After all these year, I’m just a guildmate to you now?” Juvia just stood there with a pair of cold eyes looking straight ahead at nothing in particular. “I’m no one special to you now? Just a guildmate?” Juvia still didn’t response and just started walking away toward the door in silence, leaving the helpless mage behind in his despair.

~~~~~~~~

Gray’s P.O.V:

Is this how she felt before? Juvia, is this how you felt before? Cold, empty…lonely? I stood there petrified, looking toward the door. The door that Juvia walked out. The door that led her out of my life. What have I done? Is it really too late? Is the wound in her heart really too deep to heal? The thought of her wound made me flinched; her once gloomy self was long gone after she came into Fairy Tail. That gloom, that rain came back to haunt her once again, and I’ve caused it. Every time I found love, they always leave me behind. No, actually I chased them out. My family, Ur, and now Juvia. I defied Ur and killed her. I’ve hurt Juvia all along and eventually, it chased her out of my life. I’m sorry, Juvia. I didn’t want to turn your life back to the dark, and yet, I still did it, didn’t I? Gomene. I want you to be happy now, even if it means I will have to let you go.

Previously:  

“Oi!” I tried to shake Juvia awake, but she was too much in the slumber to wake up. “What should I do?”

 ~~~~~~~~~~

NORMAL’S P.O.V.:

Juvia woke up on a bright morning, staring right above her. ”A ceiling?” She raised her upper body up, realizing that she was initially lying in a soft blue bed with a small damp cloth on her forehead. ”Where is Juvia? What happened?” Being all lost and confused, she got out of bed and looked to the left of the room. “Gray-sama!?!?” She yelped before remembering to cover her mouth as the sight she saw was quite surprising. Gray was still sleeping quite uncomfortably on a small couch at one side of the room.  Looking left and right, trying to figure out what happened; Juvia had her moment of panic. Juvia made her way toward the couch quietly and stood in front of Gray as she leaned down to his eye level. Looking at his sleeping face made, Juvia forgot all the pain from the other day for a while. She kept looking quietly for a few second, whispering softly, “Gray-sama looks really cute sleeping like this.” Then she remembered something.

“Gray-san,” Juvia tried to tug on Gray’s shirt. Yes, miraculously, Gray still had his shirt on despite his stripping habit. “Gray-san, wake up.”

“Uh, one moment,” Gray mumbled in his sleepy.

“Gray-san!” Juvia raised her voice a bit.

“Huh…. huh!? Juvia!? Ackk.” Gray finally seemed to grasp onto what just happened before he got startled and fell off the couch. “Yo, Juvia,” greeted Gray sheepishly.

“Umm, ohayo,” Juvia said coldly and briefly.

“Ummm, about last night… You were drunk and everyone already left, so I had to bring you here,” Gray tried to explain not wanting Juvia to think he had bad intention or something.

“Gray-san shouldn’t have bothered with her,” yet again, Juvia spoke with briefness and hoarseness.

“Ah, no, no. Juvia, I wouldn’t mind,” Gray scratched his head as he looked at Juvia sheepishly, with a tint of red on his cheeks. “Ah,”  Remembering something, Gray put the back of his hand on Juvia’s forehead before flipping into his palm with his eyes so focused on her as if trying to feel her temperature. “You seemed okay now. You had a pretty bad fever there.”

“Oh really? Juvia did?” Juvia sounded a bit taken back. “Arigatou, Gray-san. For tending her fever. Juvia must get going now.” Juvia bow her head, bidding her farewell and turned toward the door.  As she walked away from Gray, Gray rushed over and caught her wrist in his hands with wide, surprised eyes as if he just did it on impulse and had no idea what he just did. Equally surprised, Juvia turned to face Gray, and both were looking into each other’s eyes in silence. Gray had this surprised hint in his eyes, which later turned to seriousness, while Juvia’s eyes were unreadable, almost empty.

”Eumm.. Juvia, about yesterday, I,” Gray started the conversation, but Juvia cut him off again.

”Juvia doesn’t want to talk about ‘That’ now, ” she gave Gray a stern look, knowing pretty well what he was going about.

”Juvia, just listen to me first,” Gray pleaded.  ‘Why don’t you believe me?”

With a sigh, Juvia replied, ”There was nothing to believe in in the first place.” She yanked her wrist out of Gray’s grasp and walked out the door.

As Juvia was heading to the guild, Gray followed behind her. Sensing his presence, Juvia fasten her walking pace, while Gray also started walking faster. “What does Gray-san want from Juvia!?” Juvia finally snapped.

Gray stopped in his steps, taken aback from Juvia’s sudden outburst. “Your  trust.”

“Eh?” Juvia was a bit surprised before her expression hardened, and she studied Gray’s for a while before sighing again. Taking a quick breath, she mumbled, “never mind. Forget she asked.”

“Juvia!’ Gray called after her when she started walking again. Seeing that she didn’t bother to stop, he followed. “Just listen.” Still, Juvia didn’t. “Why don’t you believe me?” And yet again, Juvia kept walking. “I’m sorry I never took the time to consider your feeling. I’m sorry I knew what you felt for me, but never made a clear resolve. Little did I do that I started to fall for you. And then Lyon came, and made me realized how much you mean to me and that I don’t want you to get snatched away by him or anyone else.”

Juvia stopped in her track and paused there for a few seconds. Lyon again.  It’s always him. Gray-sama, that’s not love; that’s rivalry. She took a long and deep breath before turning around to face Gray. “Juvia isn’t some kind of toy.” Her eyes, if there were anything that Gray was afraid of, it’s Juvia’s eyes that time. The emptiness inside, not even a hint of pain nor any kind of emotions. Nothing, just calm blank eyes looking at him. “Gray-san can stop his play now; Juvia is really tired and sick of all of these.” She turned her back on him and started to walk forward again. Suddenly, she could feel an impact. Gray ran up to her and hugged her from behind her back.

“Juvia, stop it. Stop acting so tough when you’re not,” Gray pleaded with her while still holding her in his embrace. “I don’t understand why you don’t believe me. I really don’t.” His voice shook and trembled a bit. With his arms in front of Juvia, he held her from the back.

“No,” Juvia calmly told him while taking his arms away from her. “Gray-san doesn’t know himself. He’s lying to Juvia, lying to himself.” She turned around so that she could face Gray again, and place her right hand over where her heart is. “There’s a hole right here, and even Gray-san cannot fill that hole in her heart now.”

Previously: “Juvia, gomene…” I whispered softly as I headed back to the guild.

~~~~~~

LYON’S P.O.V:

”Gray Fullbastard!!” I shouted at Gray while running across the guild. I stopped for a split second before throwing Gray a punch in the face, which sent him flying backward a few metter. I bolted forward and picked him up by his shirt collar, not giving him any chance to fight back. ”You piece of sh*t! You scumbag!” With one of my hand still holding onto his collar, I threw him another hard punch in his stomach. ”You make Juvia-chan cry again, you gotta go through me first!” I spat out my words as I pulled his collar up and looked into his eyes with ferociousness.

Previously: “I think I love you,” Gray-sama said it again, slower this time. The whole guild busted out in cheers and whistles. 

~~~~~~

“Go, Gray!!” Different kinds of cheers could be heard from the crowd. “Finally!”

“Tsk, Juvia is mine!” Lyon protested.

Juvia was speechless for a while, and her heart shut down. “Hehe *low chuckle* Juvia sees where this is going.” She looked into Gray-sama’s eyes with her lifeless eyes before chuckling a little again. “Juvia saw this coming, but didn’t expect it to be so soon.”

Previously: “Gray Fullbuster, why can’t you realize that you also love Juvia?” Erza swing her head right and left while massaging her temple. 

~~~~~~

GRAY’S P.O.V:

The guild was being as busy as ever in the morning. Chairs and tables were already flying mid-air, but there’s no surprise since this is our guild’s daily routine. And again, I was sitting at my favorite spot at the counter whiling drinking some mugs of alcohol. After I’ve came a conclusion that I do love Juvia after all, I came to this somber state. Guilt was written all over my face. Why didn’t I realize sooner? Now that Juvia is tired of waiting, I just realize my feeling? Yeah, even after  I kissed her, she said she’ll move on. She is just that tired. I made her wait for too long, and now she found someone else. The danger of not admitting your feeling is getting hurt yourself. Mira’s words came back. Guess I am too late now?

~~~~

Previously: With tears in her sorrowful eyes, Juvia looked at Gray-sama. “From this day onward, Juvia does not love Gray-san anymore. You can rest assure that she will never bother you in any possible ways again.”

~~~~

JUVIA’S P.O.V:

Juvia ran and ran until her legs can’t move anymore. The pain and soreness in her legs are nothing compared to the excruciating pain in her heart. Gray-sama doesn’t love Juvia. He is playing with her because of his rivalry with Lyon-sama. Right? If he does like her, he would have told her long time ago, not only after Lyon-sama came. Gray-sama just wants to win against Lyon-sama. He doesn’t like her. *sob sob* Yeah, he doesn’t. Stop dreaming and stop getting your hope up, Juvia. *sob* When will Juvia ever learn? Gray-sama never liked Juvia. And never will he. He’s using Juvia to win against his rivalry against Lyon-sama. Why Juvia? Hasn’t Juvia already suffer enough? Is she some kind of toys? When he doesn’t need her, he’d just toss her aside. When he needs her, he’d use her. *dry chuckle* Gray-sama only sees her when he needs her. In this case, when he wants to win. Juvia guesses she’s that worthless after all. One minute, he said he doesn’t care, and the next, he started kissing her. *sob* Yeah, a kiss that wasn’t really meant for her. A kiss with no feelings.

 

NORMAL’S P.O.V:

Gray came back to the guild dumbfounded and confused, both from the pain on his cheek where Juvia had slapped him and his rash actions. Sitting at the counter, he was still dazed from what happened. As soon as he came back into reality, frustration took over. “Arghhh!! What have I done!?!? I’ve hurt her with my words. I made her cried.” He put his head on the counter and shook it left and right. “What have I done?” he mumbled.

“Are you okay, Gray?” Mira came from behind the counter and sat on the chair next to Gray. “Did something happen?”

“Nothing…” Gray mumbled with his head still on top of the counter. “I don’t know what came over me.”

“Eh?” Mira tilted her head with a confused look.

“It’s Juvia. We kindda.. ummm.. fought.” Gray wasn’t sure how put what happened into words.

“Juvia did what!?!? She fought with you? YOU!?” Erza, who just came to sit on his other side, sounded so shocked.  Gray couldn’t reply as he doesn’t want to admit that Juvia would actually fight with him. If anything ever happens, everyone knows Gray would be the last person that Juvia would argue with.

“Good afternoon, Erza,” Mira greeted Erza as she sat down. Erza just nodded her head and returned the greeting.

“Ummm, it was kindda my fault. Nah, cross that out.” He shaked his head. “It was totally my fault.”

“Soooo…. what exactly happened?” Erza asked.

“I guess I was mad and said unnecessary stuff.”

“You were mad? How come?”

“Lyon came over…”

“So, it was Lyon?” smirked Mira. “Is it me or there is jealousy in the air?”

GRAY’S P.O.V:

Jealousy? Me, jealous of Lyon? Over Juvia? It took me a few seconds to absorb what Mira just said. Jealous? Usually when a guy is jealous over a girl, it means that he likes her, right? Wait, wait. I like Juvia?

“Hold on, Mira,” I told Mira who was already half-way in her fantasy land. “I don’t think I like Juvia that way.”

“You ‘don’t think’? Does this mean there is a possibility?”

“I really don’t know.” I said as I grab my head and shake it left and right. “I do have a good feeling about her. She’s strong, caring, and pretty. Really beautiful, in fact.”  A smile creep up Mira’s face as I said this. “Then Lyon came and changed everything. It gives me frustration and this strange feeling. Like I’m being protective of her, but not really. Every time I see them together, I wanted to smash his face into pieces because it’s irritating.”

“Gray, I thought I’ve already told to be more resolute with her. Don’t make her wait like this forever,” Erza said in a serious tone.

“Gray, it is jealousy. Admit it, you were jealous.” Mira butted in in a mischievous smirk.

“Even if I do love her, it’s too late now. She’s moving on now. She said so herself. I’ve probably hurt her too much, and she’s tired of it. I knew about her feelings, but I kept her waiting and waiting. I just made her cried.” Juvia’s crying face flashed into my head. Her cry made me lost all my thoughts and I started to panic inside. “Then I did something really stupid, too.”

“Ehh?? What else did you do?”

“I k-k-kiss her,” I stuttered while mumbling the words. Before I knew it, my lips were already on hers.

“YOU DID WHAT!?!?!?” Erza shouted, making the whole guild turning toward us.

“Erza! Can you calm down?”

“You KISSED her, and you still say you don’t know whether or not you love her?” She asked in disbelief. Dark aura surrounded her, her eyes turned red from anger as if she would literally kill me if I say something wrong.

“I don’t know what came over me. One minute we were arguing and raising our voices at each other, but then she starting crying while still raising her voice at me. I forgot my anger, and all I knew was I didn’t mean to make her cry. Her tears stole all my voice, and I suddenly had the urge to kiss her senselessly. Then my head took over, and I actually kissed her.” Why am I telling Erza this anyways? The fact that I kissed her feels weird, but to be honest, I kind of liked it. I couldn’t stop. She tried to push me, but I wouldn’t let her.   

“Gray Fullbuster, why can’t you realize that you also love Juvia?” Erza swing her head right and left while massaging her temple.

When the Ice Clash Ch. 9

Pairing: Gray, Juvia, Lyon

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I do not own Fairy Tail since I’m not that genius, Hiro Mashima is. I only own the story here.

~~~~~~~~

 Previously: “Juvia!?!?” Lyon gasped with wide eyes looking straight toward me. Eh? Juvia? A sudden realization hit me, and it terrified me to turn around. I was scared to see what I would see. It can’t be. It can’t be. Finally turning around slowly, the sight in front of me took all words out of my mouth. Juvia.

~~~~~~~~

NORMAL P.O.V:

Drip drip drop… No tears are actually falling out of Juvia’s eyes, but what are these sounds? Drip drip drop. Right, Juvia is tearing in the inside. 

Juvia just stood there with wide eyes and shocked expression. After not being able to speak for a few seconds, she managed to put on a smile. A really awkward one at that, too. A  smile that obviously failed to hide her pains and sorrows. “J-Juvia was just p-passing by,” said Juvia as she trembled and stuttered with her words. Another awkward smile and tears in the corner of her eyes. The ice mages could only stood there dumbfounded. Gray opened his mouth and was about to say something when Juvia cut off his words.  “S-s-she should get going now.” That forced smile was pasted on her face while she looked left and right not sure what to do. As more tears started to form in her eyes, she took a quick breath before dashing out of the two ice mages’ sight.

“Juvia, wait!!” shouted the two ice mages after her.

JUVIA’S P.O.V:

Juvia kept running and running. Gray-sama doesn’t care. Even with his cold attitude and behaviors, Juvia wanted to believe that he does care somewhere in his heart. She was hoping that at least Gray-sama cares about her a bit, just a little tiny bit. What you do to Juvia does not concern me, so just piss off! I freakin’ don’t care!  So, he doesn’t care at all. *chuckle* He doesn’t care. Not at all. *chuckle* What was Juvia doing? She was holding onto this false hope and blind faith that somewhere in his cold, icy heart, there is a small place for his care toward her. Somewhere deep down within his heart. It turns out, there isn’t such place. Juvia was a fool for making herself believe that. Hic hic *started sobbing* Yeah, she is such a fool. A fool. Gray-sama never cares in the first place. Never once. *chuckle* There’s no such thing. 

“Juvia!” Juvia turned to see Gray-sama running toward her. “Let me explain. I was just…”

“It’s okay.” Juvia replied without listening to what Gray-sama had to say. “There’s no need to.”

“But it was a misunderstanding.” Gray-sama still tried to explain. Yeah, of course it was a misunderstanding. Gray-sama doesn’t care about Juvia; she was naive to think that he did.

“Maybe Lyon-sama was right after all. Lyon-sama is the only one who actually cares about Juvia.”

“No, that was not it!” Gray-sama protested.

“You can stop now Gray-san.”

“Eh? Gray-san? Che, is this what it’s all about?” Gray-sama seemed confused for a while before he clickedn his tongue a bit.

“About what?” Juvia is confused, too.

“Suddenly starts calling Lyon, Lyon-sama. And calling me Gray-san. Are you moving on to Lyon now?” Gray-sama asked Juvia while having a cold hardened face. 

Eh? Moving on to Lyon-sama? Juvia has no such thoughts. “If this is what Gray-san thinks, it is up to him.” Juvia told him.

“Huh, I see. So Lyon finally got on to you. You’re finally giving him a chance?”

Does Gray-sama have some misunderstanding toward her? “Juvia doesn’t see why Juvia cannot give him a chance. He loves Juvia after all.” Juvia is so sorry, Lyon-sama. She is just going with the flow.

“So you start to like him now?” Gray-sama seemed to flinch a bit and his eyes darkened.

“Juvia doesn’t see why not.”

“Che, just because someone likes you, you’re gonna like him too?” Gray-sama asked in a sharp voice. These words from Gray-sama pierced through Juvia’s heart. Just because someone likes you… Love is all that matters. Lyon-sama does loves Juvia. Doesn’t Juvia deserve happiness, too?

“Yeah, of course, Gray-san.” Juvia replied to Gray-sama in a loud voice. “Someone actually cares about her and loves her; why can’t she give him a chance too?”

At this, Gray-sama flinched again, his expression hardened, and his face darkened. “You’ll like whoever likes you just like that!?” He retorted back in also a loud and harsh voice. “That’s a bit shallow.”

Juvia was shocked and dumbfounded for a while. No words seemed to be coming out of her mouth. Shallow? So, Gray-sama thinks she is shallow now? Tears started to form in the corner of her eyes now. “Someone finally loves Juvia, why can’t she give him a chance? She is getting all the attentions for once. She is tired of ‘giving’ attention, why can’t she receive attention this time?” Tears start falling down her cheeks as she talked back to her Gray-sama. All the pains and sorrows spilled out. It was her limit. “She is tired of loving someone who’s cold to her. Tired of hoping, but only to be crushed afterward. She’s tired of having a blind faith that Gray-san actually has her somewhere in his heart. She is sick of waiting for something that was never there in the first place.” As tears kept falling, Juvia’s voice also raised louder and louder. “She is sick and tired of everything.”

The next thing Juvia knew was that Gray had pulled her face close to his. His hands were on Juvia’s cheeks, pulling her in as he leaned down to forcefully kiss her. Gray-sama is kissing Juvia? Juvia was surprised for a while before trying to protest and get out of his grasp, but he kept his grip tight. This bastard doesn’t care about you. He just wants to win against me. Lyon-sama’s words came into Juvia’s head. Yeah, how stupid is Juvia to actually think he might actually love her now. She tried to get out of Gray-sama’s grip, but his strong arms kept her there. Though the love of her life is kissing her right now, Juvia felt miserable because she knew that it wasn’t really meant for her. After a while, which is like a living hell for Juvia, Gray let go of her for them to get some air. As soon as Juvia was freed, she raised her hand and forcefully reached out for Gray’s face. With tears in her sorrowful eyes, Juvia looked at Gray-sama. “From this day onward, Juvia does not love Gray-san anymore. You can rest assure that she will never bother you in any possible ways again.”   

 ~~~~~~

Pinky Berry Note: Please don’t kill me now.. I swear I’m not sadistic (I’m a cheerful girl..lolz). I like their little fight here.. :3 Gray is as stubborn as ever; he fought with Juvia because he was jealous, in a way. Though his way of coping with jealousy is a bit harsh and selfish. Gray initiated the kiss, does it mean that he has already realized his feeling? Don’t ask me yet, I don’t know either.. @@ I’m writing what I feel like writing, so no detailed plot yet.. T-T As far as his rivalry with Lyon goes, Juvia misunderstood again.. By the way, who else was reminded of Playful Kiss in this chapter?? Just realized after I finished it, guess too much fandom over the drama? o.O

When the Ice Clash Ch. 8

Pairing: Gray, Juvia, Lyon

Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I do not own Fairy Tail since I’m not that genius, Hiro Mashima is. I only own the story here.

~~~~~~~~

Previously: What Lyon is doing with her has nothing to do with me. Right?  That being said, I turned my back and headed toward the guild. What is this feeling inside my chest again? It’s suffocating. 

~~~~~~~~

GRAY’S P.O.V:

I kept thinking about what happened yesterday. What is going on with Lyon and Juvia? It’s obvious that Lyon likes her, but what is up with Juvia? I mean, she couldn’t possibly give Lyon a chance, right? Why Lyon? His face, his smirks, his senseless speeches, and his stupidity irritate me. It annoys the crap out of me. Juvia loving Lyon? That sounds ridiculous. I mean, what happen to me then? It’s not like I didn’t know about Juvia’s feeling toward me or anything. Do I look that stupid? Even a 5-year old could tell that she has a major crush on me. I’m not ready for this kind of stuff. I mean, we’re nakama; I can’t just suddenly think of her as my girlfriend or anything. Girlfriend? Tsk, that just sounds weird. Juvia is nice, caring, and pretty, that I can tell. But girlfriend!? Somewhere in my gut, I’m pretty sure my life is somewhat tangled with hers, but girlfriend!? This is a big step, and I’m not ready to get to into that kind of relationship yet. It’s not like I hate her or anything, I don’t. It’s just this is too much to handle. Juvia really cares about how you see her. Erza’s words from recently came into my mind. Yeah, I can tell she does. She’s gloomy for others, but she sparkles for me. You should be more resolute and give her a clear response. Erza once tried to get me to think more upon her. I can’t give her a clear reply when I don’t even know my own heart.

NORMAL’S P.O.V:

Gray was sitting by himself at the guild’s counter when Lyon walked toward him.

“Gray, we need to talk,” said Lyon with a stern face.

“What?” growled Gray who is somewhat in a foul mood.

“Do I need to repeat myself?” Lyon looked a bit pissed off now, and stared straight into Gray.

“I don’t want to talk to you, so get outta here.”

“I don’t want to force you, but I will if I have to.”

“Ice-make,” Gray stood up and face Lyon in his ice-make position. “I said I don’t want to talk to you!”

“This is important. It’s about Juvia-chan.”

GRAY’S P.O.V:

There he goes again. Juvia-chan? The way he calls Juvia makes me sick to the stomach. “What about her?” I retorted while releasing of my ice-make position and showing him how annoyed I was at him.

“Jeez, just come with me.” Before I could protest any longer, Lyon dragged me out of the guild.

“Lyon! I can walk by myself!” I shouted at him.

So, Lyon dragged me out of the guild to one of the corner of the street.

“Gray! I declare war with you again!” Lyon exclaimed loudly while pointing a finger at me. “Juvia will be mine someday!” 

A vein in my forehead popped. His!? How dare he? That confidence in his voice. It’s like he’s so sure. “Whatever Lyon. Just piss off already,” I told him while grinding my teeth.

“Not unless you accept the challenge!” Lyon insisted on the challenge. “Juvia-chan then will see how suited I am for her.” Huh, puppy eyes now? Those hearts coming out of his head too. How can Lyon be this ridiculous?

“Whatever. I don’t want to be dragged into something as useless as this.” Does he intend to annoy me just like this the whole time?

“Gray, don’t tell me you’re scared of losing to me?” Lyon shouted after me as I began to walk away. Losing!? Do I look like I would lose?

“You’re just being stupid. Why would I join you in that?”

“Fine! Don’t you go complaining when she get snatched away!” Lyon shouted back. “Especially when she gets snatched by me!”

“Can’t you understand human language!? For the last time, I said I don’t care!” I snapped back at Lyon, full volume. “Do whatever you want cuz I don’t care!” Snatched away by him? Who does he think he is!? “What you do to Juvia does not concern me, so just piss off! I freakin’ don’t care! Why do I have to mingle in your business? It’s not like she’s anything to me.”

“Juvia!?!?” Lyon gasped with wide eyes looking straight toward me. Eh? Juvia? A sudden realization hit me, and it terrified me to turn around. I was scared to see what I would see. It can’t be. It can’t be. Finally turning around slowly, the sight in front of me took all words out of my mouth. Juvia.

~~~~~~~~

Pinky Berry Note: How long was Juvia standing there? How much did she hear? What’s she gonna do? I hate myself for writing it to be like this. =.= Gray still won’t admit his feeling. His words and his heart are not the same. Poor Juvia.. Lyon was a bit pushy, but totally understandable there. I got this scene inspired from Lovely Complex; the part where that teacher provoked Otani and Otani got pissed and said some stupid stuff while Risa was behind the teacher. Yeah, to get a better picture of this chapter, you can watch Lovely Complex that part.

Previously:  “Be lovey dovey all you want; I don’t care. I’m not hungry anymore cuz of your face, Lyon.” And with that, I just left those two be. What is this feeling? The feeling of defeat? Che, yeah right. There was nothing to fight over in the first place. Despite saying this, this uneasy feeling grew deeper each step I took.

~~~~~~~~

JUVIA’S P.O.V:

“Eh? Gray-sama~~” Juvia shouted after Gray-sama, but he just kept walking away. “Gray-sama, wait!” Juvia was about to run after him, but Lyon-sama grab a hold of her hand.

“Let’s go, Juvia! I’m hungry,” said Lyon-sama as he walked the opposite direction.

“But Gray-sama just,”

“Let him be,” Lyon-sama cut her words. “He doesn’t deserve your love.”

“But Juvia…”

“He doesn’t see how beautiful you are, and he’s just missing the chance to,” Lyon-sama looked so serious; it almost made Juvia believe what he said. “You are beautiful and smart and caring. Any guy would love to be loved by you.”

Juvia looked at Lyon-sama long and hard; he’s a good guy, but Gray-sama is her love. “Juvia loves Gray-sama~~” Juvia was on the edge of tears. “She loves him so much.”

“I know Juvia, I know,” Lyon-sama patted her head. “I know… There’s no need to be sad, now.”

“Juvia loves him,” Why can’t Juvia say anything beside these words? Where are all her words? The only thing in her head is her Gray-sama and how much he means to her.

“You love him, but I love you.” Lyon-sama told Juvia while still patting her head. “What did Gray ever do to you that made you fall so hard for him?”

“He showed her sunshine. He was nice to Juvia.”

“That was what you call nice? Didn’t you see he just left?” Lyon stopped patting Juvia’s head, but put both his hands on her shoulders. “Did he ever appreciate your love for him?”

Juvia was shocked at what Lyon-sama just said. Did he ever appreciate your love for him? Does Gray-sama appreciate her? Pictures of Gray-sama being annoyed at her, pictures of him being disgusted at her affection flashed through her head, and when he ignored her and how happy he was finding a mission for Lucy-san. Gray-sama likes Lucy-san? Does Gray-sama hate Juvia? “Gray-sama is cold toward Juvia, but Juvia still loves him very much.”

“I know you do, Juvia.” 

“But sometimes, it hurts.” It hurts so bad that she can’t breathe at times. It hurts so bad that sometime she wished that she had never fall for him. Warm tears start rolling down her cheeks. Drip drip drop. One tear after another kept falling. Juvia doesn’t want to cry. No, she wants to be happy like other girls; like those girls who had their dream came true. “It hurts, but Juvia still can’t stop loving him. He’s the only love of her life.”

“Juvia, why can’t you see that I can also show you sunshine? Can’t you see that I can treat you far better than the way he treats you?”

“Even when Gray-sama is being cold to Juvia, she knows that somewhere in his heart, he also cares about her.” Does he? He does care about Juvia, right? At least for a bit? Those tears won’t stop rolling down. “Juvia believes that Gray-sama does care about Juvia; he just doesn’t show it outside. He cares.” Despite saying this, there are still doubts within her words. “He cares. Somewhere deep down.” Juvia couldn’t stop crying, and those tears continued to roll down her cheeks trailing down until they dropped to the ground. The next thing Juvia knew was that Lyon-sama pulled her into a hug.

“If only, Juvia. If only I met you first.” Lyon-sama told Juvia while still hugging her. “If only I met you first, then I would have beaten Gray to show you sunshine first. Then you’d have fallen for me instead.”

If Juvia met Lyon-sama first? Would she loves him instead? He is a good person after all.

            “Just know that every time you fall, I’d be there to catch you, Juvia,” said Lyon-sama who is now stroking her back to calm her tears down. “Just remember that.” 

Juvia is doing the same thing to Lyon-sama as what Gray-sama is doing to her. She is breaking his heart. Lyon-sama loves Juvia, but Juvia loves Gray-sama who doesn’t love her. So, Juvia is giving Lyon-sama the same pain that Gray-sama is giving her. She is making Lyon-sama sad. Why is fate so cruel to both of us? Juvia is sorry, Lyon-sama. She is sorry that she is breaking your heart. “Thank you, Lyon-sama. Juvia doesn’t deserve your kindness.”

GRAY’S P.O.V:

Argghh!! I was such a jerk! Why did I just leave Juvia there with Lyon? We were going to go somewhere together. What if Lyon is bothering Juvia again? Before I knew it, my legs were already leading me back to where I left Lyon and Juvia. What I saw in front of my eyes made me speechless. What the heck does Lyon think he’s doing? Juvia had her back toward me, while Lyon was hugging her. His hands, too. Those swarming hands! He had his hands on Juvia’s back while he was saying something to her. I couldn’t hear since I was kind of far away. My stomach did a flip again. I felt my blood boiling and I wanted Lyon’s face flat on the ground. I took a step forward; they still didn’t see me yet. If Lyon keeps doing what he’s doing now, one day, Juvia might actually give him a chance. Suddenly Mira’s words echoed in my head. Juvia giving Lyon a chance? My leg froze again. I looked up to where they were. Lyon still had Juvia in his arms. Am I too late? Woah, wait. Too late for what? Juvia was always my nakama. What Lyon is doing with her has nothing to do with me. Right?  That being said, I turned my back and headed toward the guild. What is this feeling inside my chest again? It’s suffocating.

Pinky Berry Note: So, whatcha think? With all honesty, I feel really bad for Lyon. Lyon and Juvia are the same in some aspects. They are both helplessly in love with someone who doesn’t reciprocate their feeling. If Gray doesn’t do something, I really feel like Juvia should try to move on. =.=

GRAY’S P.O.V:

I was peacefully walking along the street the next day when a voice called my name. “Gray-sama!!”

“Juvia?” I was a bit surprised to see her running toward me.

“Have Gray-sama eaten lunch yet?”

“Not yet. Talking about that, why don’t we go somewhere to grab a bite?”

“H-hai! Gray-sama, let’s, let’s!” Juvia was all flustered up and had heart-shaped eyes. I could tell she was on cloud 9.

“No, no!! I didn’t mean it to be like that!” Sudden realization just hit me. Juvia tends to over exaggerate the situation, especially when it comes to me. Heck!? Why do I feel warm in my checks, too? “It’s definitely not a date, Juvia!”

“Not a date~~~~ *o*” Despite Juvia saying that, her face still shows it all. That grin, so wide to the point that it’s almost creepy. I bet nothing is going inside her head right beside the fact that we’re going to eat lunch together. Together? The sound of it was soothing and comfy. Somehow.

“Okay now, why don’t we get going?” I said as I saw that Juvia was still standing there grinning.

“Hai~~~~”

“Let’s go, Juvia-chan~~” Lyon popped out of nowhere while trying to lead Juvia away.

“The heck, Lyon!?!?” I was startled, most of all, he just came out of nowhere taking Juvia away. “Why are you here, again?”

“None of your business, Gray,” said Lyon. Right, not my business. He just wanted to take Juvia somewhere with him while she was still with ME!

“If you weren’t blind, then you would have seen that Juvia was talking with me!”

“Even you said, ‘she was”. Past tense. She was talking to you. Was. Now, she’s coming with me,” Lyon said shamelessly. Seriously, how low can this guy get?

“Ehhh!? Lyon-sama?” Juvia seemed like she just woke up from a trance and notice Lyon’s presence. “When did you get here?”

“Juvia-chan~~~”  Lyon cooed. Please, he’s acting like a 5 year-old. “You’re so mean; you didn’t even see me coming.” Ha! In his face! Eat that! Juvia didn’t even notice him. By the way, why am I so happy now?

“Lyon, you can out of the way now,” despite the fact that I was happy that Juvia totally didn’t notice, just his face is already irritating enough.

“I’m going soon. Why would I wanna see your face for long?” said Lyon.

“Then you can get out now.”

“I will. After I get Juvia-chan to eat with me,” smirked Lyon. That face. Argh! Frustrating.

“Let’s go, Juvia. Don’t let his stupidity spread on to you,” I said as I grab Juvia’s wrist to come with me.

“Gray-sama~~~ *o*” Juvia could only gasp.

“No, Juvia-chan, you’re coming with me,” Lyon also grab hold of Juvia’s other wrist. “I heard there’s this new restaurant. Let’s go!” Lyon dragged Juvia with him as he turned the opposite direction of me.

“Lyon, you scum. Juvia was coming with me.” Seriously, his face is pissing me off.

“O.O Could it be?” Juvia suddenly gasped.

“What?” I questioned at her sudden realization.

“Could it be that Gray-sama is fighting over Juvia?” Juvia, once again, had hearts in her eyes. “Whaaaa~~~ Juvia is so happy~~”

“Chi-chikao!!” Where the heck did Juvia get this idea from? “No, I’m not fighting over you. In a way, yes, but not definitely not like what you think.” Was I really fighting over her? No way. I, Gray Fullbuster, fought over Juvia? No freakin’ way. But what is this twist in my stomach. Why the heck does my head feel so light? My face, too. It’s getting warmer now. “I’m just annoyed with Lyon. Yes, that’s all” I told her.

“See, Juvia? This bastard doesn’t care about you. He just wants to win me,” Lyon turned to Juvia and told her. I don’t care about Juvia? She’s my nakama, of course I care.

“No, that wasn’t what I meant,” heck!? Why am I even trying to explain? Argh, Lyon’s face is really getting my nerve. “You know what? Just go now. I’m sick of this.” I tried to walk with Juvia’s wrist in my grasp. But Lyon won’t let go of her other wrist. Darn it! This guy really knows how to annoy people off.

“You can leave, but Juvia-chan is coming with me,” Lyon still insisted. “Unlike you, I actually care about her.”

“But Lyon-sama….”

Lyon-sama!? Since when did Juvia start calling him –sama? I thought she only calls me that. Suddenly, my energy drained out and I had no more enthusiasm to argue anymore. “You know what? I’m done with this childish play,” I told both of them as I let go of her wrist. “Be lovey dovey all you want; I don’t care. I’m not hungry anymore cuz of your face, Lyon.” And with that, I just left those two be. What is this feeling? The feeling of defeat? Che, yeah right. There was nothing to fight over in the first place. Despite saying this, this uneasy feeling grew deeper each step I took.

Pinky Berry Note: Sorry if the story isn’t good enough. T-T I tried to write the tension between Lyon and Gray, but obviously, it kindda failed. Gray is still a dimwit and hasn’t realize what’s important yet. He can be as dense as Natsu sometimes (NaLu fans, you know what I’m talking about..lolz)
