Heyo! It's me! Esketit!

I'm sure a few of you recognize this story a bit since I posted it on my Songs About You one-shot compilation story. If you're wondering why I have posted it, once again, but separately. It's because this story has been bugging me. I have major writers block right now, and I blame this story since I keep thinking about it and it's possibility about making it, it's own story...I hope you understood what I just said, haha...

So I am here to present a new Gruvia story based off a really sweet love song, and you know. It's just, ugh I don't know. Fucking adorable and distracting since it won't leave my mind! I hope you guys enjoy it, I plan on making this story about three to five chapters long cause I don't want to make it long like my other ones and I already have most of it written down. Plus I have edited it and added more detail to this chapter, if you have read it already.

Anyways, without further ado please enjoy this chapter and tell me your thoughts about it!

P.S. If you guys could just, you know see Jose Porla as a nice sweet old man it would be pretty nice. Since he is part of this story and I kind of revamped him, a bit.

You're Just A Girl

"Hey Juvia," a deep voiced greeted. Juvia turned to see who it was and flashed a smile towards her father's assistant Gray Fullbuster.

"Hi Gray-sama!" Juvia waved at him even though they were only a few feet apart from each other.

"Coming to see your dad?" Gray asked as he pushed the down button on the elevator she was going to get onto.

"Yes, Juvia misses her father. So why not come visit him?" The elevator 'dinged' to alert them it was ready for their entrance onto it.

"Well, I might as well go with you, since I was heading up there to pick him up for a meeting." Gray gestured for Juvia to walk in before him, since he was a gentleman, especially for his boss' daughter.

"Has Gray-sama seen Bora-sama today?" Juvia questioned, pushing the twentieth floor button on the elevator panel.

"I haven't seen him all day actually," Gray replied, his stomach turned. He didn't like Bora, it scared him that Juvia thought that he was just a sweet charming man. Bora was the exact opposite of that! But since Juvia was very naive, she was blinded to see the true man she oh so loved dearly.

"Juvia will go visit him for a bit before seeing father," Juvia looked down at her clothes. She was wearing her school uniform that consisted of a white buttoned shirt, with a red tie, a flared black skater skirt, knee high socks, and her black polished dress shoes. She adjusted her skirt a bit pulling it a little farther up to show a little more leg since the skirt reached right above her knee. She hoped Gray wasn't watching her since she began to feel her cheeks heat up. Juvia looked at her white buttoned shirt trying to remove any wrinkles from it. Her chest made her a little conscious since most girls her age were ballooning up. Unlike her, she didn't have a flat chest nor did she have anything big. She just had, something that could be groped. In all honesty she was making herself presentable for Bora.

She had been thinking about him all day when he had messaged her a text early in the morning about missing her touch. The text reminded her of the passionate night they had a week before. Both had proclaimed their love for one another and Juvia had always wanted to have her first time with someone she loved. Maybe they could figure something out while she was at Phantom Tower. The elevator rung once again to show that it had arrived at the desired floor.

Gray cleared his throat trying to regain his thoughts. He had watched at the corner of his eye Juvia fixing herself. It was extremely wrong for him to feel attracted towards her. Especially since she was the daughter of a highly powered man, and she was just a girl. Gray shook his head a bit to clear his mind walking by Juvia's side. Since Bora's and Jose's offices were in the same direction he walked by her.

Juvia's smile grew once Bora's office came into view, Gray frowned feeling his gut twist giving him a bad feeling. There was something off that Gray couldn't figure out what it was.

Juvia's pace quickened as she got closer to Bora's office door. Gray stayed behind slowly making his way to Jose's office looking around the long hallway to see if anything was off or suspicious looking. Everything seemed fine, except Bora's office, Gray had a feeling that something was off in there, whatever it was. He hoped Juvia would be alright.

Once at Bora's office door Juvia lifted her hand into a fist to gently knock on it. Before her fist could even make contact with the door, Juvia heard Bora speaking to someone else. If Bora had a visitor Gray or the secretary in the lobby would of told her about it. Juvia pressed herself against the doorway to listen since a particular word caught her attention.

Gray arched an eyebrow at Juvia's action. Normally she wasn't the nosy type, unless something had to do with her.

"Is everything all right?" Gray stood by Juvia and leaned his head a little towards the door.

"Shh, Juvia is trying to listen," Juvia whispered pressing a finger to her lips. Gray chuckled as he continued listening to Bora's deep voice. He must be on the phone since Gray would of known if someone had come into his office. The two silently stood still listening closely for Bora's voice.

At first his voice was muffled eventually it became clearer since it seemed that Bora was walking around his office.

"Age is nothing but a number," Juvia smiled, she knew Bora was talking about her, but to who was he talking to? "She's just a girl yes, but whatever. She's head over heels for me!" Gray rolled his eyes as he saw Juvia's face slowly become flushed. He found it curious that Bora was talking about her, since very few people knew about their relationship. Gray never liked Bora, since he is one of the few people who have witnessed the true man he was. If anyone were to find out about his and Juvia's relationship, there was no telling what he would do.

"Her father's the man I work for, of course it's going to benefit me! I'm using her to get what I want." Juvia's smile was gone in an instant. She must of heard wrong since Bora would never speak about her that way. Gray on the other hand felt his heart drop, the truth was finally rising to the surface. He had warned Juvia about Bora many times. Except Juvia was too naive and stubborn to believe him.

"Simple, I get what I want, leave her and the geezer of a father she has. She doesn't know and she'll never know. Juvia Lockser is just a pathetic naive girl." Juvia pulled away from the door a bit to let everything sink in. Her eyes began to burn with tears as she felt everything hit her. Gray was speechless, he didn't know what to say to her. He was tempted of saying, "I told you so," but that would of probably make the whole situation worse.

"She's got an amazing body too for a teenager, except her personality is just...naive and pathetic. Anyways, within a few years, I'll be the one in control of Phantom Tower, and I don't know. Maybe Juvia will grow on me and I'll just marry her for the fucks of it. Either way, she'll never know that I'll be seeing other women. She's so oblivious about her surroundings, and innocent. It's pathetic." Those words were like bullets piercing Juvia's heart, a stray tear ran down her cheek. The man Juvia had fallen in love and whom she thought was her soul mate was using her. For money and power. All the memories they had together were, fake. Bora was her first friend she ever had, her first kiss, her first boyfriend, her first everything! Everything he had given her were lies. The texts, the phone calls, the notes, the gifts, simply everything. The happiness that glowed from her had gone out. The shine in her blue eyes was gone. Gray watched as Juvia's face lost it's color and emotion, never in his life had he seen such heart break.

Gray reached out to Juvia wiping away the stray tear from her face. Juvia was pulled out of her thoughts and was met with sad dull eyes. Bora's voice was now just muted, Juvia was done with everything he had to say about her.

"Come on Juvia let's go," Gray motioned her putting his hand on her shoulder. "I'll get a taxi to take you home."

Juvia's tears silently fell, staining her face. Gray wished he could be of better comfort, he was sure he would go and visit her after work. He'd tell Jose that Juvia needed help on some schoolwork. He would be the shoulder she could cry on, right now he needed for Juvia to leave so her father won't discover them. If that happened, then all hell would break loose.

It shattered his heart seeing the heart break in her eyes. Her tears held so much than could be explained. Gray felt jealousy and anger over come him. Juvia had held him back from hurting Bora, for breaking her heart into pieces. Why did she have to be this way? She was just a girl who didn't deserve to be treated this way.

Juvia was just a girl, who was naive, who was never taught about heart break, who was never taught that there were horrible men out there in the world. Juvia was just a naive sixteen year old girl who fell in love with a man. She was just a girl who thought prince charmings existed, who thought life was always happy, who thought there was very little evil in the world. She was a girl who was never shown emotional pain, who never thought she'd be hurt that way. What a stupidly naive girl she was.

A man who was over a decade older than her, had lied to her for months. Who had taken away her innocence, who had so much trust from her father, who knew her since she was a little girl, who babysitted her, who taught her almost everything, who played with her, who raised her for a bit of her life. A man that crushed her heart into pieces, a man who betrayed her just for money, a man who never cared about her, a man that was selfish. A man that was getting away from hurting her.

Juvia was now crying in her room, with Gray watching her break apart. No one deserved this, especially her, he thought. It was stupid of her to not listen to him, but who was he? Just her father's assistant in Phantom Tower. Who had slowly developed a liking for the girl, who enjoyed her company, who showed her a bit of the world she had never seen, who decided to protect her no matter what. Except he didn't protect her, he had failed both her and himself. Now he watched as she withered in emotional pain because he didn't give her enough warnings. He wished Bora never came into her life, then she would be her bubbly happy self as always. So innocent she was, it surprised Gray.

"No Gr-ay-sama," Juvia sobbed holding Gray back from his chest. Gray was ready to go down stairs and beat the living hell out of Bora. He wanted him six feet underground rotting and burning in hell. The pain he was causing Juvia was painful to watch. Never had Gray seen such sadness and heartbreak in someone's eyes, but hers. He knew about their relationship, he just never knew how deep it was between the two. Gray knew that they were dating, he just didn't know that Bora had taken her virginity and promised a mouthful of lies to her that very night.

"He fucking used you Juvia!" Gray grabbed her wrists pushing her back onto her bed. "He made you think you loved him! He took your innocence away! He used you for money!" Juvia held her face in her hands as she continued sobbing. Gray was right. Bora had taken many things away from her.

He was downstairs with her father discussing new ideas and plans for her family's corporation. Bora had just been promoted to becoming her father's business partner because of her. Juvia had talked too good about him with her father, how he had helped her, how much protection he had given her, how much help he provided towards her, how much company Bora was for her.

Soon it would be Juvia's fault that her father's hard life long work was going to be destroyed and taken away from him. Gray had warned Juvia about Bora months ago. He had told her that Bora was with other women, and that he stated himself that he was just using Juvia to later throw away. Juvia demanded proof, but there wasn't any except Gray's eyes and ears. She brushed his comments off thinking Gray just wanted to be promoted a high status back in Phantom Tower, except it wasn't him the one asking for it. Gray was telling her the truth the whole time, but she was too in love and naive towards Bora to believe him. Juvia hated herself at the moment for it.

"Gray-sama was right," Juvia admitted as she looked up at Gray who was fuming walking back in forth in her room. He had come to see her after work telling Jose he was going to help her with some school work.

"Come on Juvia it's too late for that," Gray ran his hand through his hair trying to figure out what the hell was he going to do next. He knew he was going to be assisting Bora now since he now owned half of Phantom Tower. He didn't deserve it, he cheated his way up, he destroyed many others taking their jobs away from them. He made people suffer to get where he was. Jose was going to slowly lose his power and money he had invested and built on his corporation.

"J-Juvia doesn't know what to do Gray-sama," Juvia continued weeping her sobs now silent. Gray sighed walking towards Juvia on her bed sitting by her and bringing her into his arms. He rubbed her back as she sobbed onto his chest. He was glad he had taken off his jacket since his dress shirt and part of his tie would be damp from tears.

"Right now you need to stop crying," Gray began. "So we can come up with a way to save your father's corporation because Bora is going to destroy him Juvia." Juvia pulled away sniffling. Her eyes were puffy, her cheeks were stained red, tears trailed down her face, and her bottom lip quivered. It pained Gray to see her like this, but in a way she looked adorable. Seeing her everyday lightened Gray's life up. He felt attracted to Juvia, but ignored those feelings as much as he could. They were distracting and unnecessary for him.

"Juvia doesn't think dad will believe her. She has spoken too well of Bora-sama." Juvia wiped her tears away trying to stop her ugly crying in front of Gray. She didn't want anyone to see her cry never less a guy, especially Gray.

"Well, you need to stop calling him Bora-sama, he's just Bora, and that's all he ever will be," Gray frowned at the large wet spot on his dress shirt and tie. He had just bought his purely red silky tie yesterday now it was covered in tears and possibly boogers. "Then, we'll have to find a way to get some kind of proof that he is going to take advantage of your dad just like he did to you."

Juvia tried to think of a way to do so, except she knew Bora. She knew that he would be more vigilant about himself, to whoever he spoke to, he would make sure to destroy them and keep their mouth shut now that she had seen and heard the real Bora.

"Catching Bora-sa...Bora will be hard now, Juvia knows he won't be speaking about it anytime soon." Juvia stood up from her bed to go to her bathroom down the hall to clean herself up. "Juvia will be back Gray-sama," Gray nodded as she left, and was left alone in her room with stuffed animal on her beds staring at him. On her way, she heard her father speaking to Bora about Gray's position in Phantom.

"I have my assistant who I'm sure will work harder than Gray, Jose." Bora said making Juvia clench her teeth. What did Gray ever do to Bora? Nothing. He had been working for Juvia's father since he was still in school. Gray worked as an intern for Phantom, eventually working as Jose's assistant once he graduated two years ago.

"Yes, but I have this...connection with Gray. I trust him with my life Bora, I trust him with Juvia's life as well." Juvia smiled at her father's words. Jose seemed very deceiving from his looks but underneath he was a nice, kind, man. "If Gray was a little younger I would be wanting him as my son in law, he is such a sweet man." Juvia's face immediately turned red. She had certain feelings towards Gray since the day they met, but seeing Bora, before he hurt her, always muted those feelings for Gray away. Juvia thought Gray was a very handsome man, very respectful, and mature. Unlike Bora who was about to turn thirty soon, Gray was six years younger than him and had much more knowledge and manners Bora would ever have.

"You have my trust too, Jose!" Juvia frowned hearing Bora's voice again wanting to rip him apart. "I seem fitting as your son in law as well just as much as Gray," Juvia felt anger rise in her. She held herself back to not go down their and expose Bora in which may lead into ruining her father quicker than it should.

"I do Bora, I do," Jose replied. "I see you and Gray differently, you are too old for my Juvia as well. My daughter is only sixteen, you're twenty-nine Bora."

"We can arrange something Jose. I have always admired Juvia ever since she was little. I would cherish every step she will take, I would bow down to her." Vomit almost rose into Juvia's mouth. His words were nothing but bullshit.

"I don't know Bora, she's just a girl," Juvia heard the hesitation in her father's voice. It made her smile knowing her father's love towards her.

"I'll make you a deal, if I raise the corporations value by forty percent in two years, to prove to you my adoration for your daughter. I will ask for her hand in marriage." Juvia squeaked, no, no, no dad please don't. She thought to herself, she wanted Bora miles away from her, for the rest of her life. She did not want to wake up every morning to stare at his face that she now detested so much.

"It'll be good for my corporation Bora, but you must prove to me other qualities to have my daughter. Juvia cannot be or ever be compared to money." Her father sternly said, he seemed offended but Juvia pouted, she expected a bit more from her dad, like a simple no.

"Name them and I swear on my life, I will do as you say." Before Jose could even reply, Juvia shook her head quickly walking into the bathroom to clean herself up.

She saw herself in the mirror and mentally cringed. Her eyes were red and puffy, and her hair was a mess. When she walked out she went back to her room to discuss her newly found information to Gray. Maybe it'll become handy in the near future.

Gray was looking around Juvia's bedroom, for a girl who was very bubbly and girly. Her room was pretty plain, since she also had the money to basically have whatever she wanted as well. Her room was completely white, there was very little decoration other than her dressers. Her bed was pretty big, it's covers being a dark blue, adding as well all the creepy looking stuffed animals she had laying on it. Her closet was probably the most colorful since there were many colorful clothes stored in it. From her school uniform to the multiple dress and skirts he had seen her wear. A medium sized shiny book had caught his eye that laid on a white desk that was most likely for her to do her homework on. It had Juvia's name written on it, it's cover was a light blue with a bunch of glitter and rhinestones on it. Gray took it in his hands and opened it.

He wasn't surprised to see that it was her diary. It seemed to have begun on Juvia's thirteenth birthday since the year was dated back three years ago. Gray put it back down not wanting to be nosy. He respected Juvia, so he also respected her privacy.

"Oh fuck it," Gray changed his mind as he grabbed the book skimming through the pages. The beginning was the usual things anyone would find in any girls diary. How her day went, what she did that day, the small crush on a guy from school. Soon the real important pages appeared, Bora's name started showing up frequently. At first Juvia wrote about him in a family feeling kind of way, eventually being more of a relationship way. Juvia's writing about Bora began to piss him off again. Her writing proved how naive she truly was. Gray laughed a bit wondering how a person can be that way. Juvia was going to suffer for a while until she truly understood the way the outside world of her little own world worked.

Pages after pages of Bora popping up everywhere, Gray's name soon showed. She wrote about him about her first day meeting him. It was pretty friendly compared to Bora's except a few pages read a bit more. Juvia had written about Gray's looks, that he looked handsome and very attractive. Gray looked up from the book scoffing and patting himself on the back.

"Hell yeah I'm attractive," Gray said to himself and continued reading. There were six full pages dedicated to a day Gray had spent with Juvia, he had taken her to the carnival that day since it was in the city and Juvia had never gone to one. He smiled at how well Juvia remembered that day. He had made her laugh a lot and had also won her a big stuffed brown bear that she had actually kept for a year since it was currently in the middle of her bed in between the other stuffed animals. The memories made him grin, she was so beautiful that night, so curious and innocent.

"Juvia's back Gray-sama," Gray slammed the book back down onto her desk startled from her entrance. He quickly spun on his heel feeling a bit of warmth on his cheeks.

"H-Hey, you okay now?" Gray scratched the back of his head hoping she didn't catch him reading her diary.

"Yes Juvia feels better now Gray-sama," Juvia quirked an eyebrow at him wondering why he seemed so startled.

"Good," Gray sat back down on her bed and cleared his throat. "Any ideas about Bora yet?"

Juvia shook her head and began to spill the information she had just heard. Gray had stayed a while longer trying to come up with an idea or something on how to get rid of Bora. Except they hadn't come up with anything. They continued talking until he left. Juvia went on her own to figure a way out for herself. She didn't want to just get rid of Bora, she wanted to destroy him very badly. She wanted him to suffer more than he made her and anyone else he had ruined.

All the destroying and suffering had her thinking about one particular person. Her best friend and also her cousin, Gajeel Redfox. His father ran a similar business like her dad, just in a different category.

Gajeel was a smart and clever man. Who had also destroyed and ruined people, since he had helped his father work his way up, not like Bora, but protecting his father and turning in the backstabbing workers. If Juvia asked for his help, she was sure he would agree since they protected each other.

The next day Juvia had contacted her cousin who was very much happy to help her. Only that he couldn't work a miracle. He had explained that Juvia would have to continue studying and learning the ways of business and trade. Both the good and the bad. If she wanted to ruin Bora and expose him, then she had to do it in a way that wouldn't backfire in anyway.

What better than enrolling her at Fairy Tail Institute! A private school that teaches both the good and bad side on many careers. Especially business and trade.

Gajeel had convinced Jose to enroll Juvia for the upcoming fall, since she is the top student in her class. She was sure she could finish all her school credits early and enroll at the institute. The sooner the better since it would just take Bora a couple years to ruin her father, Juvia wanted to learn everything as soon as possible. She needed to get her shit together and work on destroying Bora before he destroyed her dad.

It was Juvia's final day in Magnolia, she was ready to fly to Alvarez where Fairy Tail Institute was located. At sixteen she was one of the youngest to attend there, she felt proud of herself for such an accomplishment. She had also been avoiding Bora since the day she found out the truth about him months ago. Thankfully her excuses of wanting to finish school early worked very well for him. He would still leave her texts, calls, gifts, and whatnot. Juvia played along to his antics not wanting to look suspicious. She would cockblock him anytime he began to get a little touchy. She would use a lame school excuse and the fool would fall for it. Now she was leaving for four years and coming back to wipe Bora out.

Juvia was currently at the airport waiting for her plane to leave. Right now she was patiently waiting with Gray by her side. She had been nervous for weeks, now the day has come and she was scared. She would be alone for a bit until she met some friend in Alvarez.

"Okay, so when you arrive, there will be a taxi waiting for you to take you to Fairy Tail alright?" Gray handed Juvia her plane ticket trying to carry all the luggage she had packed with her. He had multiple bags strapped on him dragging him down, he would never understand why women needed to pack so much. Even if they we're leaving for a few years, they did not need to pack their whole house with them!

"Yes, Gray-sama," Juvia nodded as she took the ticket from his hand. She giggled at the sight of him, sweaty and struggling with her luggage. She would help him but he kept ignoring her intentions.

"Alright let me just get your luggage into the conveyor belts for them to take," Gray walked away from her, struggling to roll her huge suitcase and many bags she packed. Once he placed them onto the slow moving machine he sighed walking back to Juvia who was standing near a huge window watching planes fly out and land. It was a nice view, a whole dark green forest was visible.

"Juvia is nervous Gray-sama," Gray turned to look at her as she spoke. Her eyes seemed to begin to tear up and Gray was prepared for her water works. He had been her should to cry on for awhile now, and he'll never get used to it.

"Don't be, you'll be graduating in four years, you'll come back and get rid of Bora," Gray stuffed his hands in his blazer jacket pockets as he quickly glanced at Juvia. She still looked nervous meaning his words really didn't help her situation.

"Juvia is going to miss dad, and Gajeel," Juvia sighed looking down before she turned to look at Gray. "She's also going to miss Gray-sama very much." Gray quirked an eyebrow down at her, even after months of him and Gajeel teaching her the real world. She was still a bit naive. She was going to be a tough cookie to crack.

"I'm sure you are, you'll meet tons of people and forget about me," Gray chuckled as he rolled his eyes. It kind of made him a little sad at the thought. He wanted to be with Juvia in Fairy Tail to make sure no one was going to harm her in anyway. But he couldn't, she needed to learn by herself what it feels like to be in the real outside world.

"No, Juvia will never forget Gray-sama," Gray was about to speak before the intercom played. Plane for Alvarez leaves in twenty minutes, passengers for this plane please head for Alvarez gate.

"You have to go now Juvia," Gray quickly hugged her before he started pushing her away. Juvia was ready to walk and leave Gray alone before she turned right back wrapping her arms around his waist hugging him tightly. She nuzzled herself into his chest since she was a lot shorter than him.

"Goodbye Gray-sama, Juvia hopes to see you again," she feared that by the time she came back, Gray wouldn't be working for Phantom anymore. It would crush her to know that the man she began to care for very much was gone from her life, all because of Bora.

"Goodbye Juvia, don't worry about me," Gray wrapped an arm around her waist and the other around her shoulders holding her tightly against him. In the past several months his feelings for her had grown, but he knew better. Juvia was underage and he didn't want any sort of problem with her father or the law. It was best to just stay friends, nothing more, nothing less.

Juvia sighed in contentment as she slowly pulled away from Gray's embrace. She took a moment to stare up at Gray who just arched a brow at her. Juvia stood on her tip-toes gently cupping his face as she lightly kissed him on the lips. She had her eyes closed throughout the kiss, Gray was just wide eyed looking down at her. Her lips were warm compared to his and extremely soft. Gray didn't think anyone's lips could be like that. He could taste a bit of sweetness from her since she had a bit of candy earlier. Their kiss lasted for a few seconds before Juvia pulled away. Gray could feel his whole face and neck burn as he waved dumbly at her when she said her final farewell.

Juvia giggled at him before disappearing in the sea of people at the airport. Gray watched as she walked away from his life, at least temporarily. He raised a hand to his lips, touching them feeling a tingly wave flow through them.

He shook his head looking around hoping no one saw them kiss. First it would be a problem if they knew the age gap, and it would be a little embarrassing if anyone saw his dumbstruck face.

Gray began to walk out of the airport heading for the exit one he recollected his thoughts. He had a strong feeling in his gut that when Juvia returned in a few years. She would no longer be just a girl. She would be a woman. A woman that would be unstoppable and wipe anyone out that got in her way of business and trade.

Skadoosh!

^^^I hope someone gets that reference I just made haha.
