Ohai there ! This is my first fanfiction and I'm not really good at it ... But it would be nice , if you could drop some reviews c:
"Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead."
- Oscar Wilde
Love is strange . Simple , yet so difficult . Some say love is a release of the soul , to share it with someone else . Some say love is a hurtful demon , which you're not able to let go off . But for Juvia there is only one word she could describe love with : Beautiful .
For that young woman love meant the world . Having her Gray was enough for her . According to Juvia , you can live on pure love . You don't need food, you don't need water, you don't need shelter as long as you have love .
But we're using the word love so many times , without thinking : What does it stand for ?
Love stands for ... Affection...
Sunlight . Blue sky . Deep breaths . Steady wind . Warm skin . A vivid voice calling out his name . "Gray-sama !" , a blue-haired girl shouted hoping the ice mage would turn around .
I want you to look at me more ...
Gray kept on laying on the ground , his eyes locked on the sky and his arms crossed behind his head . The breeze was leaving a ticklish feeling on his skin , while the grass seemed to be embrace him like soft clouds . He tried to ignore the call . The voice was familiar to him . The voice called out for him many times , every day , at every time , whereever he was .
He wasn't in a mood to talk . Not now and not with Juvia . Since she got to know , that he was on a mission with Lucy alone , she couldn't leave him alone . How bothersome . Her voice kept calling for him a few times , always saying different things ... "Gray-sama , what are you doing?" ... "Gray-sama , can Juvia join you ?" ... "Gray-sama , are you listening?" ... "Gray-sama , have you been unfaithful?" ...
Please look at me ...
The raven-haired boy twitched out of annoyance , let out a long sigh and sat up just as the girl let herself fall down next to him . Gray glanced at her . Her rosy cheeks all puffed up from her bright smile and her eyes sparkling at him , like the ones of a hungry puppy . One strand of her hair was not in place . It bothered him . Gray always saw the little things about Juvia . The ice-mage didn't know why , but he just did . When her dress had a little stain , when her hat was put on her head in a wrong angle , when she was showing one percent too much skin ... All those things bugged him more than he wanted to admit .
"Juvia heard , that Gray-sama just came home from his mission ... With Lucy ... So she wanted to check , if you were okay" , Juvia said shyly , while turning her fingers around themselves . Gray sighed again not saying anything for a while , before noticing that her expecting look kept on piercing through him , until she got an answer . "I'm fine . Still alive , ain't I ?" .
She smiled . It was a kind smile , full of affection . It was as if a heavy weight dropped of her shoulders . "Juvia is so glad!" . .. What did she expect ? , he thought . Should I have viruses or some serious illness ? . Juvia looked at her lover for a while .. With that dreamy look she always had . For her a moment with Gray was worth a million jewels and more . For him it was different .
Why won't you look at me ? ...
They were sitting together for about 2 hours . Gray was close to raging at her . She kept asking him weird questions about the mission , about Lucy , about himself ... It was annoying ... but the most annoying part was , that she didn't get that she was bothering him . Another weird thing here the 23 clothes she had knitted for him , since "she didn't have anything better to do , when Gray-sama was gone" . Juvia always did such stuff . Make him presents he didn't want . He couldn't take it anymore . It wasn't that Gray didn't appreciate them , but he didn't want such things . They were not in a relationship . And he had to make it clear .
"Listen ," The ice-mage picked up the clothes and pushed them all over to the bluenette " .. I really appreciate your presents and I appreciate you wanting to spend time with me , but .. " The hobby-stripper bit his lip and gave her 'the look' . The look you give people , you're breaking up with . " ... But I don't want this . I don't need this . I'm sorry Juvia , but I can't give you affection .. Like you give me . So please . Please , stop it "
You don't want to look at me ? ...
His stomach filled with regret and guilt as soon as he saw her face change . Her bright smile faded , her sparkling eyes went dull and her mouth was slightly open . After starring at each other for a few seconds , she suddenly stood up and started picking up all the clothes she had . "J.. Juvia is so so so sorry . She didn't mean to bother Gray-sama in that way" . When the water mage was done with picking up all her self-made stuff , she looked at him with calming eyes and a small smile . "It's okay . Juvia understands Gray-sama ... And she'll do everything to make you happy !" , and with those words , she turned on her heels and ran off to the guild building .
I won't force you to look at me ...
Gray sighed for the third time as he watches her run off . I hope I didn't get into any trouble , by saying those things …
Alright ! I'll continue the story soon .. or if you even want to Dx I'm trying hard .. But I'm not really a writer .
