Summary: "This wasn't what I wished for..." "Gray... You should have been careful for what you wished for, because its your fault that Juvia changed."
AN: English isn't my first language so I'm sorry if I make any grammar and spelling mistakes! Well...enjoy!
The door bell jingled as Juvia slowly walked into the potion shop. The short and stout lady behind the counter gave Juvia a big smile. Although, smile soon faded away as she saw the girls faced covered in tears and despair.
"What can I do for you dear?" The short lady soon became worried.
"J-Juvia needes a p-potion to forget" She stifled through tears.
"Ahh I see its one of those..." The lady smiled sadly feeling symmetric for the heartbroken girl.
"Sweetie, you don't want to forget, you want to move on. Forgetting won't help you, it will just leave a big empty space." The potion dealer obviously spoke with experience. She pulled out a bottle from under the counter and showed Juvia , the liquid was a faded purple color swirling with sparkles.
"What will this do to help Juvia?" Juvia had slowly walked towards the woman and stared at the potions mystical presence.
"This will help you move on, and forget your feelings and not your memory, this will let you live a happy life without the man that broke your heart. Here take it." The old lady placed the potion carefully into Juvias quivering hands.
Juvia reached into her pockets to pull out some Jewels to pay for the potion, but was stopped by the stout lady who insisted on not having her pay.
"B-but Juvia needs t-to pay." Juvia being her normal self wouldn't let the old lady just give her the potion for free.
"I don't need jewels, just visit me sooner or later and check in to make sure you are okay... Okay?"
"Thank you very much. Juvia is very grateful." Juvia slipped the bottle into her pocket and bowed before she left the small shop, to go home and relieve all the stress and pain that one man caused. That man was, of course, Gray Fullabuster.

It was an ordinary day. Juvia had walked into the guild. Then she immediately started to scan the room for Gray. She instantly spotted him sitting with Lucy, Natsu and Erza. Although she would love to go up and sit with Gray and confess her love once again, she need to muster up some confidence first. So Juvia hid behind the giant pillar about 20 yards away from the table wear Team Natsu was sitting. After about twenty minutes of pacing back and forth she soon had the confidence to approach the table.
-At the table-
"So Gray, how do feel about Juvia." Erza brought up the subject trying to put Juvia's three-year long fight for Gray to an end.
"Errr" Gray scratched the back of his head making his hair nervously.
"You know about Juvais feelings... So at least give her an answer." Erza spoke calmly although she was n the verge of an outrage. Natsu and Lucy soon left the table trying not to get caught in Erza web of disasters.
"Ummm" Gray stuttered again.
-behind the pillar-
Juvia began to walk towards the table that was now only occupied with Erza and Gray.
"COME ON! TELL ME FULLABUSTER! Speak!"screamed the redhead.
Juvia quickened her pace to figure out what Gray had done to make Erza so angry.
Gray stood up, pushing his chair out.
"She's annoying! She's crazy! She ugly! The way she dresses, talks, and acts it creepy! She stalks me everywhere! The only reason she came to this guild was to stalk me! If she didn't come to the guild my life would be so much easier! I wish she never came to the guild anyway!"
By hat point Juvia was right behind Gray in tears.
"Gray, you don't mean that" Erza tried to us her head to motion to Gray that Juvia was right behind him.
"Uhh yes I do! She a creep!" And with that he turned to leave the table, but ran into Juvia and fell right on top of her.
His eyes badged out of his head. Juvia, Juvia Loxar the girl he just totally shamed in front of the guild was right under him, crying while staring into his eyes.
"Gray-sama d-did y-you mean that..." Juvia stared into his deep brown orbs.
Gray stood still with a blank expression trying to comprehend what he said and what just happened. After not getting a response Juvia crawled out from under him and stormed out of the guild. "What are you all looking at!?" Gray screamed across the entire guild and immediately after the whole guild fell silent and didn't dare to look at the ice Mage, including Natsu.
Erza hung her head down and approached Gray, "You messed up, you messed up bad Gray." And after that she left the guild hall in search of the watermage.

Juvia had return home from the kind woman's potion shop. She took out her key and opened her door. She set her stuff and the potion bottle on her kitchen counter and sighed. She bent over and stared at the bottles magical essence.
"Juvia."
"Ahh!" Juvia turned around in shock but relieved herself when she realized it was only her good friend Erza.
"Hello Erza-san" Juvia spoke with no emotion.
"Hello Juvia, I just wanted to make sure you are okay..." Erza caught a glance of something glowing behind Juvia's back, "whats that... Wait you went to the potion shop?
Juvia couldn't hide it anymore, Erza already saw the bottle. She pulled it out from behind her back and handed it to her.
"This potion will make Juvia forget all the feelings Juvia has ever had for Gray-sama, Juvia is tired of this so shes putting an end to this." She stood straight as she told Erza about her plan.
"Im glad, I thought you would be a lot worse, but Im sorry, I should have expevted more out of you Juvia. Here." Erza carefully placed the bottle back in Juvia's hands and smiled sadly at the water mage and left the apartment.
Juvia quickly showered and got into her pajamas. She sat down for her usual tea before bed. She quickly put the potion into her tea and drank it, she was tired, she had a long day.
She slowly approached the bed, and fell asleep instantly as her head hit the pillow, almost as if the potion was a sleeping drug. And for the first night in three years, she slept calmly, necause she didn't have a care in the world anymore.
