Chapter one – The Mental Conflicts of Grey Fullbuster.
Grey POV
I sighed as I lent back on my chair my hands running through my hair completely ignoring the text book open in front of me. When had she become such a big part of my life? When had that girl who followed me relentlessly turned into a girl that I would look for in a crowd.
Juvia Lockser, I had met her under a year ago, she was an exchange student, she had moved into the halls at the same time as Gajeel and it seemed they were close friends. I had spoken to Gajeel on the odd occasion and he hadn't mentioned her, but they had been seen together on multiple occasions although that could be a coincidence she had stared sitting with the girls and well Gajeel and Levy had grown close rather quickly.
I sighed leaning forwards the house was silent Ur was out visiting Meredy and Ultear and Lyon was out and about somewhere, not like they would be much help in this situation. I frowned as I remembered Meredy, everything was slowly clicking into place I mean Juvia having a conversation with a dodgy looking guy, she was always a little secretive in a smart way. She would be open about everything in such a degree that no one asked her any questions because they believed that she would simply tell them, it was one of the first things I noticed about her.
The conversation I was sure I was not supposed to know had fallen into my head and I couldn't get it out, she seemed so innocent, so nice could it be possible she could be apart of something more sinister than any of us would think? She had told the unidentified man that she would end him the moment he hurt someone she loved, who was he planning to hurt and why? I stood stretching my arms as I needed to walk, I knew that there was something more when I found out about Meredy.
Meredy my sixteen-year-old niece had felt so alone she had wanted to take her own life and couldn't come to me, before that I thought we were all close, but she had found out. She had found out the truth about her parents and worst off it didn't come from Ultear, if Ultear had told her she would be able to do some sort of damage control before it spiralled but she tried to jump into a river with rocks in her pockets and Ultear and Ur told us that they saw a blue haired girl they had never seen jump in after her and drag her up.
When they found out she was upset and alone they thought she was running away not jumping off of a bypass, Ultear had tracked her phone and they had gotten there to see the pink haired girl jump and the blue haired girl to jump after her. Now the blue hair was not that uncommon, apparently the girl went to the hospital and spoke with Meredy but an hour later Ur and Ultear had gone to speak with her and she had given a fake name and left. They had mentioned she had broken her arm, that was what made me think it was Juvia but when I asked her she had smiled and chuckled and told me that she had fallen over in work being a cluts.
I always felt like she had lied about that and now this strange conversation, she had been acting more and more distant with me and everyone else. Something must have been going on, but do I have the right to ask her? To get her to tell me when I had shouted at her to leave me alone, when I had told her there was no chance anything could happen, I had been the one to tell her she should move on. So why now she has moved on am I feeling like I have made the biggest mistake in my life?
I groaned laying forcefully on the bed I was going to have to figure something out before I go insane. There was nothing wrong with proposing a friendship with Juvia was there? I mean she had calmed down? She hasn't followed me to every location I have been at in at least a week. Granted she was at some of them but not all of them. I felt the chuckle growing in my chest, was this what Stockholm syndrome felt like? Had she placed herself into my life this forcefully on purpose? It was a laughable idea, I shook my head as I heard Ur coming in and shouting up to see if anyone is home.
