Juvia Doesn't Care?
"Morning Mira-san!"
"Morning Juvia!" Mirajane, the beautiful and kind barmaid greeted the excited girl in front of her with a smile. "Planning to take another quest?"
"Not today Mira-san. Juvia is taking the day off." She looked around the guild and then asked "where is Gray-sama?"
"Gray?" Mira repeated. "He went on a quest with Lucy yesterday. They should be back today."
Mira gave a curious glance to Juvia. She wondered if Juvia would start cursing Lucy and calling her love rival. But Juvia just sat at the bar and smiled at Mira.
"Juvia, did you hear what I said?" she asked.
"Of course Juvia did. Why did Mira-san ask that?"
"Shouldn't you be…" the barmaid paused, puzzled "...Well, jealous?"
"Why should Juvia be jealous?" the girl asked evidently even more puzzled. "Lucy is a strong mage who is very capable of protecting her friends. It is no wonder that she is chosen as a companion for many quests. Lucy is Juvia's friend."
Mira's mouth was hanging open at this point. A few other guild members who had overheard the conversation had given a similar reaction. Cana spit her beer, Levy dropped her book, Lisanna, Evergreen and Erza stopped talking and Makarov looked as if he'd been slapped.
"Well, Juvia must go now. She has to clean her room and shop for groceries. See you later Mira-san." Juvia stood up and brushed her skirt when the guild doors flew open and a Shirtless Gray and Lucy walked in, laughing.
'Well that should bother her' Mira thought. But to her surprise, Juvia walked clean past them after greeting both of them with a smile.
"Juvia! What happened?" Mira asked terrified. She hoped the girl hadn't caught some strange disease.
"Nothing." She replied. But when she realized what Mirajane wanted to know, she sighed and said "Juvia doesn't care. It's worthless." And with that she left the guild leaving many confused friends inside.
