Warm Chapter 1

The day had started off like any other day. Juvia Lockser was humming to herself as she made her way to the guild. Today she planned on getting to the guild early so she profess her love to her beautiful Gray-sama. Juvia walked to the guild and opened the doors. Only a few people were inside, seeing as it was so early. Mirajane was there, along with Nab, Macao, Wabaka and a few others. Juvia went to the bar and sat down. Mirajane smiled at her.

''Nice to see you Juvia. What'll it be?'' she asked. Juvia's eyes sparkled.

''Juvia will have the Earl Grey tea please.'' Mirajane nodded and went to the back to prepare her drink. She came a few minutes later with Juvia's drink.

''Here you go.'' she said as she handed Juvia her drink.

''Thank you.'' Juvia said, taking a sip of her tea.

''No problem.'' Mirajane replied. She walked away, probably to take another person's order. Juvia just continued to drink her tea. Now all she had to do was wait for her beloved to walk through that door.

When Gray did walk through that door, Juvia was on him in an instant.

''Good morning Gray-sama.'' she greeted him, smiling brightly.

''Morning.'' Gray replied and brushed past her. Juvia's smile faltered a bit. She just had to keep telling herself that he did this all the time and that this was no reason to be concerned. She turned around and quickly caught up to the ice mage.

''Would Gray-sama like something to drink?'' she asked him, her bright smile still in place.

''No.'' was his only response. He walked over to his ususal table where Lucy and Erza were sitting at. The only person that was missing was Natsu. Juvia watched as he walked away, her expression crestfallen. In only a few minutes Gray was already laughing and smiling with his friends. Juvia became even more depressed by just watching him. Why couldn't she do that? Why couldn't she make him laugh and smile like that? Maybe she wasn't trying hard enough. Juvia's face instantly brightened. Yeah, that was it. She just needed to try harder. Maybe then he would start to like her. She casually walked up to his table and stood there, trying to catch his attention. It was like he was ignoring her on purpose. She coughed.

''Um, Gray-sama?'' she called out his name, a little bit unsure. Gray turned his head in her direction.

''What is it now, Juvia?'' he sounded annoyed, maybe even a little bit tired. Juvia fiddled with the hem of her dress.

''Well, Juvia was just wondering if you would like to-''

''No'' Gray had rudely cut her off. He didn't even listen to what she had to say! She tried again.

''But, Juvia didn't even finish-'' he cut her off again.

''You didn't need to finish. I already know what you're going to say. You were going to ask me if I would have lunch with you or something. And I'm telling you no. So you can leave me alone now.'' Juvia felt her heart break a little. Erza and Lucy had stopped talking and now they were staring at the two of them. But Juvia refused to be discouraged.

''Okay, well maybe tomorrow Gray-sama would like to'' Juvia stopped herself, startled by the glare that Gray was giving her.

''I said no, or can't you hear? I don't want to go out with you, not now, not tomorrow and not the day after that. So can you please leave me alone? Your pestering is starting to get annoying.'' Gray said. Juvia lowered her eyes. So that was it. Maybe he really wasn't all that interested in her. She was a fool to think that he actually liked her. Lucy and Erza kept staring, waiting to see how she would react. Juvia smiled as brightly as she could, even though her heart was breaking on the inside.

''Okay. Juvia will see you later than. Bye Lucy-san, Erza-san.'' As quickly as she could, Juvia walked out of the guild. She had to get out of there. It felt like everyone was staring at her even if that was not the case. The farther she walked, the more depressed she became. ' Why doesn't Gray-sama like Juvia? Why does he always seem annoyed when she tries to talk to him? She hasn't done anything bad to him. She has only been good to him, and this is how he treats her? Maybe Juvia never really was a friend of Gray-sama's at all.' It was then that she realized that she was crying. But that didn't matter to her. The only that mattered at the moment was to get as far away from the guild as possible. She didn't care where she went as long as it was away from there. She eventually stopped in front of a large oak tree. She was in a park of somesort with a large lake in the background. As she stared at the tree, the sky began slowly started to turn gray. And then it began to pour. The rain felt like bullets piercing her skin. But she was okay with it. She was used to it, after all.

Natsu had just arrived at the guild and he was soaking wet. He looking for something at his house and it had taken him forever to find it. When he finally found it, he started walking to the guild when it just started raining out of nowhere. That had just delayed him even more. And now that he was here, it felt like all the time it took him to get here meant nothing. He walked over to his usual table and sat down. Everyone stared at him.

''Natsu why are you so wet?'' Lucy asked. Natsu scowled.

''As I was walking to the guild, it just started raining out of nowhere. And it was raining really hard too. It was I was getting hit by a million bullets.'' Erza and Lucy shared a look.

''It was probably Juvia. She left the guild after Gray had said some pretty insensitive things to her.'' Lucy said. She then turned around to glare at Gray. Gray looked at her.

''What?'' he asked.

'' You know what I'm talking about! You could have at least apologized to her.'' Gray shrugged as if it was no big deal. This action annoyed Natsu.

''So she just left? And no one went after her?'' Natsu asked. Gray's face remained impassive.

''Come on flamebrain. You're making a big deal out of nothing. Juvia can take care of herself. She doesn't need anyone to go after her. And besides, this is Juvia we're talking about. It can't be that bad. She'll probabaly be back tomorrow, all happy and cheerful and shit. There is no need to overeact. I'm sure she's fine.'' Gray said. The way he spoke, it sounded like he didn't care at all. And that just annoyed Natsu even more.

''How long ago was this?'' he asked.

''About four hours ago. Why?'' Natsu jumped up and headed towards the guild doors.

''Natsu, where are you going?'' Erza asked.

''Yeah, you just got here.'' Lucy added. Natst turned around to face them.

''I'm going to find Juvia. She could have been in that rain the entire time. I just want to make sure that she's okay.'' With that being said, Natsu turned aroung and headed out of the guild.

xXxXxXxxXXxXxXXxXxXxxXxXxXX

When Natsu finally found Juvia, she was completely drenched. And so was he. It had taken him a while to find her because the rain was making it difficult to trace her scent. But now that he found her, he didn't know what to do.

''Juvia?'' he called out to her, uncertain. She didn't respond. He took a step closer.

''Juvia? Are you okay?'' he asked.

''Juvia is just fine, Natsu-san. She just wants to be left alone.'' she whispered to him. She didn't need to be loud, he could hear her just fine. Even over the pounding rain. Natsu scoffed and crossed his arms over his chest.

''You're lying. I heard what happened from Lucy and Erza. Gray hurt your feelings, didn't he?'' Juvia was quiet for a moment. Then she turned around to face Natsu.

''Why are you here?'' she asked. Natsu shrugged.

''I just wanted to make sure that you were okay. I know that Gray hurt you. He's just being a jerk. You shouldn't take what he said seriously.'' Natsu said. Juvia smiled a little at his words.

''Thank you Natsu-san. Juvia appreciates your concern, but she is fine. You don't have to stay here. Juvia doesn't want you to get sick because of her.'' Juvia mumbled. Natsu's face instantly took on a confused expression.

''What are you talking about? I don't care if I get sick. The only thing that matters is that you're okay. I won't leave until I know that you are alright.'' Natsu told her. He was not going to leave her alone. Especially in this weather. Even if the rain was her own doing. Juvia stared at him. He was too stubborn. She knew that he wasn't going to leave. She sighed.

''Fine. But we should go somewhere else. Juvia would feel terrible if Natsu-san got sick standing in the rain because of her.'' Natsu grinned.

''What did I tell you? I don't care if I get sick. I want to make sure that you are alright. And I won't leave you alone until I make you happy.'' He reached out a grabbed her wrist. When his hand touched her skin, he frowned. She was freezing cold, even to him. And that couldn't be a good thing.

''Juvia you're freezing. We need to get you out of this rain.'' Natsu said. He began dragging her in some random direction.

''Where are we going?'' Juvia asked. Natsu looked back at her and grinned.

''Someplace warm.'' he replied.

xXxXxXxxxXXxXxXxxXxXxXXxXx

Natsu was leading Juvia through the forest to his home. No place was warmer than his house. At least not to his knowledge. They reached his place and he finally let go of Juvia's wrist to open the door. When they walked in, Juvia was amazed at how messy this place was. She knew that Natsu was messy, but she didn't know that he could be this messy.

''Wow, Natsu-san's house is very messy.'' she said. Natsu rubbed the back of his neck.

''I know. Lucy came here once and organized eveything, but then I messed it up again. But there is a reason why this place is such a mess.''

''Really? Why?'' Juvia asked. Natsu smiled.

'' All of these things are supose to be mementos. You know, to help me remember all the good times I had with all my friends.'' He walked over to a certain spot and pulled out a piece of paper.

''See this? This was my first job with Lucy.'' He chuckled at the memory.

''Man, that was a really good time. Oh, and this thing over here? This is the first job that Team Natsu went on together. And there is so much more.'' Natsu had an excited gleam in his eye. Juvia smiled. This was more than just stuff. This was memories. Then she sneezed. Natsu turned to look at her.

''Oh, that's right. I need to get you out of those wet clothes. You're going to get sick!'' Juvia watched as Natsu ran around the house, trying to find dry clothes fot her to wear. It was sweet that he cared about her comfort so much. When he did find her clothes, she walked into the bathroom and changed into them. When she stepped out of the bathroom, her cheeks her tinted pink. Natsu's clothes were loose on her and they were a little bit revealing. Natsu didn't seem to mind very much though.

''I hope they're alright. I didn't have anything else.'' he said. Juvia nodded.

''They are alright. Thank you Natsu-san.'' Natsu shrugged.

''Not a problem. Anyways, are you going to tell me what's wrong?'' Juvia looked up at him confused.

''Huh?'' she asked. Natsu pointed to the window.

''It's still raining. And I know that you are the cause of it. So something must be wrong if it's still raining. You can tell me, you know.'' Juvia sighed.

''Juvia just doesn't understand. She has tried everything and Gray-sama still doesn't like her. It is just so frustrating. She doesn't know what to do.'' At this point, Juvia was sitting on the floor, seeing as there was no sat down next to her.

''You shouldn't have to do anything. You're fine just the way you are.'' Juvia stared at him.

''Really?'' she asked. Natsu nodded.

''Yeah. I mean, who wouldn't like you. You're smart, strong, loyal, nice, and you're pretty. Gray is just being an idiot.''

''You think Juvia is pretty?'' she asked. Natsu looked at her.

''Of course you're pretty. You're just as pretty as every other girl in the guild. And you're weird sense of style makes you stand out even more.'' Juvia was shocked. No one had said that to her before. Most people called her annoying or gloomy. No one had described her like that.

''And besides,'' Natsu started, drawing her out of her thoughts. '' Gray isn't all that. I was raised by a dragon. Gray was raised by some lady that made him strip in the snow. What sounds cooler?'' Juvia smiled.

''Well, being raised by a dragon is interesting.'' Natsu smirked.

''I know. I have some pictures of Igneel but I can't find them. Maybe I can show you.'' Natsu muttered and his shoulders slumped. A depressed air was coming off him. Juvia patted his back. It must be hard for him not knowing if Igneel was alive or not. Suddenly an idea came to her.

''Juvia has an idea. Maybe if we organize this place a little, we can find your pictures. Then you can show her the pictures.'' Juvia suggested. Natsu's face lit up at her idea.

''Alright!'' he exclaimed, jumping to his feet. He pumped his fist into the air. Juvia giggled.

''See?'' Natsu said, pointing at her face. '' You have a nice smile. That is another reason why people should like you.'' Juvia smiled. Outside the rain had stopped completely.

xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXXxXx

They had spent the rest of the day cleaning up Natsu's house. After that they sat down on the hammock and looked at the pictures of Igneel and him. Igneel obviously means a lot to Natsu with the way that he talks about him. It was sweet and sad. Juvia had learned so much about Natsu that she didn't know before. And she also had told him a few things about herself. Eventually it was getting dark and Juvia had to return to the Fairy Hills. Natsu had been kind enough to walk her there. When they got there, Juvia didn't go inside right away. She turned to face Natsu.

''Thank you Natsu-san. Juvia feels so much better now.'' Natsu looked away, slightly embarrassed.

''No problem. I am just glad that I could make you feel better.'' It was silent for a moment.

''Um, Natsu-san?'' Juvia started, a blush forming on her cheeks. Natsu looked at her.

''Yeah?'' Juvia blushed harder and fiddled with the hem of her dress. Natsu thought it was cute.

''Well, Juvia was just wondering if Natsu-san would like to hang out tomorrow? Juvia had a lot of fun today and she would like to get to know you better.'' Juvia mumbled, looking at Natsu uncertainly. Natsu gave her a toothy grin.

''Sure! I would like to get to know you better too.'' Juvia smiled.

''Okay. So Juvia will meet you at the guild tomorrow at noon?'' Natsu nodded.

''Okay. Juvia will see you tomorrow. Good night, Natsu-san'' She waved and walked into the building.

''Good night, Juvia.'' Natsu said and he turned around and started walking in the direction of his house.
