Jalousie
Chapter 1
When Gray ran into Juvia outside of the guild doors, he mentally prepared himself for a flood of rivers that she would LITERALLY cry, one of her bear hugs, or a loud "Good morning, Gray-sama!". He mentally whispered an apology to his ears. Hey, he never knew. It might be the last time he could hear before Juvia's loud voice made him deaf. Instead, all he got was a smile and a "Good morning, Gray-san". There wasn't a hug. No rivers. No loud shouting. Just a smile and a 'Good morning'.
Gray blinked. Once. Twice. It's impossible. Did she just call him 'Gray-san' and not 'Gray-sama'? Why weren't there any rivers? Why wasn't she crying? Why wasn't there any rivers? Why was she quieter than usual? Was he dreaming? Of course. It has to be. In real life, Juvia would never call him 'Gray-san'. Or would she not cry actual rivers whenever she saw him. Or would she not give him a hug. Or would she ever be this quiet.
Juvia waved a hand in front of him. "Hello? Gray-san. Are you okay?"
He blinked a couple of times. "Oi, Juvia, stop waving. I'm fine." She did as she was told and stopped waving. Gray looked her suspiciously. "Juvia, you all right? You ain't sick or somethin'?"
The blue haired shook her head. "No. Everything's all right. Juvia's life is good. Juvia feels just fine. But thank you for checking up on Juvia though, Gray-san!" She smiled. She walked past him. "Juvia will see you later, Gray-san..." Gray heard her murmur to herself about something '-kun' and saw her cheeks flush pink. He shrugged it off, ignoring it.
"Yeah. See you around...Juvia." He replied too late. Juvia was out of earshot, walking somewhere to who knows where. He looked back at her walking alone for a few moments before pushing the guild doors open and walking in.
As usual, the whole guild were either fighting, eating, drinking, or gossiping. Still confused about what had happened earlier with him and Juvia, Gray decided not to join in the fighting and took a seat next to Erza, who was eating a strawberry shortcake while talking to Lucy.
"Hey hey, Erza! Did Juvia tell you?" Lucy's eyes sparkled as Gray plopped on the bench next to Erza.
"What about Juvia?" He asked as he ducked at a beer barrel that was thrown in his direction.
"Juvia doesn't like you anymore Gray. Well, as a friend, she still does, but not like before. She likes someone else now." Lucy explained, as she sipped on her fruit smoothie.
"Juvia...doesn't like me anymore?" Gray asked. He's not jealous. Why should he be? He was trying his best for so long to get her off his back. Because of her, Gray couldn't hang out with Lucy as he wanted to. He's just surprised. He thought that Juvia wouldn't give up on having him as hers.
Erza nodded. "Yes. It's such a shame, Gray. I thought you two would've ended up together. You should've tried harder."
Juvia. Doesn't like him anymore. He should be happy, right? After all, she was a bit annoying at times and he wanted to have Lucy as his girlfriend. But he felt confused. Juvia doesn't like him anymore. Everything could almost be back to normal. So, why wasn't Gray happy?
End of Chapter 1.
