Chapter 1: Rainy Days

Our story starts off with a young, beautiful girl with hair as blue as the ocean. She lived far away from all the other villagers. She really didn't have a choice on being alone. All the villagers who knew her hated her because she brought bad luck to everyone. It wasn't the kind of bad luck that would injure anyone. Everywhere the girl went, the rain followed. Her life seemed gloomy and sad to most of the villagers. Her only wish was for the rain to stop. But it never did.

On her way towards her small cottage in the forest, she had seen someone loitering around the house. It was a suspicious looking person and she was frightened. Slowly walking towards the person, she proceeded with caution. All of her defenses were up and she was prepared to fight if they were to attack.

"Hello?" She asked. The person turned towards her but she couldn't see their face through the rain. She walked closer until she was only a few feet away.

She took in the sight of the person before her. He was obviously a boy. His hair was a bluish, black color and his eyes were the same color. She was struck with a feeling she had never felt before. He was handsome and she couldn't keep her eyes off of his face.

"Hello." He said giving her a smile that could make the clouds part.

"H-hello." She said looking away bashfully. This was the first time in years that she talked to anyone. She certainly didn't think that a guy would talk to her. Especially one this good looking.

"Are you the fair maiden in the woods that I have heard about?" He asked, looking at her with serious eyes. Maiden? She never thought of herself as a maiden before.

"I guess." She said, now looking down, trying to hide her pinkish face. "May I ask who you are?" She asked bashfully.

He looked at her in a curious manner and told her, "I am the prince of this country."

The girl was shocked. She has always heard stories about the prince, but never knew what he looked like. She wondered what the prince was doing all the way out into the woods in the rain that she had created. She didn't know what to say to him now that his identity was revealed. The prince stood there, staring at her. His eyes glued to her.

"Uh, w-what are you doing out here anyways?" She asked, staring back at him.

"I have come to meet the girl of my dreams." He said with a serious expression. He calmly reached up and lightly lifted a strand of her hair. "You're more beautiful that I have ever imagined."

By this point, she her face was bright red and she was speechless. She kept thinking that this was only a dream and that she needed to wake up and get back to reality. Was the prince really looking for her? Or did he make a mistake? He suddenly stopped looking at her and stared up into the sky.

"I wish this rain would stop." He said a little disappointed. This made the girl's heart sink. It was her fault that the rain was coming down. "Why must you look so sad?" He asked, looking back at her.

"You hate the rain, don't you? I'm sorry. It's my fault that it's falling." She said feeling a little depressed.

"It is not your fault." He said, cupping her cheek in his hand. He gave her a warm smile. This made the girl's heart leap back into her chest. "How could such a beautiful person create something so gloomy?"

"But I—" Before she could finish, the prince moved closer to her and planted his lips on hers. This shocked the girl. But what was more shocking was that when she opened her eyes, the sun was shining. It was actually shining and it was warm. "It's beautiful." She said in amazement.

"Yes, it is." He said. The girl realized that he wasn't looking at the sun but still at her. She gave him a small smile and looked down. But before she knew it, they were sinking into another kiss.

The prince told her that it was love at first sight and she shyly told him the same. She had never felt this feeling but she knew that it was love. He took the girl's hand and they started walking towards the sunset. They lived happily ever after.

THE END

As soon as saying those last few words, Juvia closed the book that was in her hands. She looked out into the crowd to see if Gray, the person she loved more than anything, heard the story. She scanned over the room twice before she gave up. Gray wasn't in sight. Juvia's heart dropped as she walked off the stage in the back of the guild hall.

Every month, Fairy Tail had an event where guild members could perform something for everyone. Juvia was excited for this and she worked hard to write a story for Gray.

"That was a good story Juvia." Erza said, giving her a sympathetic smile. Everyone knew about Juvia's feelings.

Juvia couldn't muster up the strength to tell her thank you, so she just gave Erza a small smile and walked out the door. She looked up at the sky with saddened eyes.

"I wonder where Gray-sama went." She said with a small sigh.

It was dark outside when Gray left the guild. He decided to leave right before Juvia went on stage. He knew that she was going to spout nonsense and he really didn't want to listen. Deep inside he knew that Juvia had feeling for him, but he always chose to over look it. He knew that he would never feel the same way.

He looked up into the sky, the stars twinkling brightly. Gray took a deep breath before heading in the direction of his home.

When he was half way to his destination, something caught his eye. Standing a few feet away, there was a dark silhouette. Looking closer, it was an old woman draped in multiple robes.

"The stars say that you are troubled." The old woman said without looking at Gray. He didn't need really feel like listening to a kooky old lady that predicted the future so he proceeded to walk past her. "Ah, there is a young lady on your mind." This made Gray stop in his tracks and turn towards the woman.

"Look, I don't need you to tell me my future. I don't believe in that stuff." He said, trying to shake the creepy feeling off of him.

"I predict that you will fall in seven day." The old woman said, ignoring Gray.

"What?" He asked, getting a little confused by the hag's words. The woman looked at him and gave him a sly smile. Her teeth were crooked, some of them even missing.

"So now you want to listen to me." The old woman said looking Gray straight in the eyes.

"Look, if you want to tell me something then spit it out old woman." He said, getting a little impatient.

"My name is Veronica." The woman said. "I am also a witch."

"Right." Gray said with fake enthusiasm, not paying attention to Veronica's last statement.

"I suppose I will have to show you for you to believe me." Veronica said, mumbling something underneath her breath. When she stopped mumbling, a small tornado wrapped around her body and then suddenly disappeared. Standing where Veronica was at, was a girl around Gray's age. She had long black hair with purple highlights. Gray was dumbstruck by this.

"Believe me now?" Veronica said with a smirk.

"Wait. What happened to the old lady standing there? Don't tell me you're her!" Gray said in a shocked voice. Veronica rolled her eyes.

"That was me. But I think I prefer my normal look better." She said, smoothing out her top robe.

"Why would you change into an old lady then?" Gray asked, getting a little annoyed.

"I felt that I needed to. Will you stop asking questions now?" Veronica asked, looking at Gray. He seemed to be quiet at the moment, so Veronica spoke again. "I've been watching you for a while now and I think you're an interesting person." she said with a smile. When Gray didn't say anything, she continued.

"You see, I just became a full fledged witch and I need an experiment. So I picked you." She said, digging out a small crystal ball.

"Why couldn't you pick someone else?" Gray asked, still annoyed.

"Like I said, I think you're interesting and that girl is equally interesting." Veronica said while looking at the crystal ball. She must mean Juvia. Gray thought to himself.

"What do you want?" Gray asked.

"Again, I want to do an experiment." Veronica said looking at Gray with serious eyes.

"What type of experiment?" Gray asked with caution.

"An l-o-v-e experiment." She said spelling out the word love with a mischievous grin. Gray gave her a look that said she was crazy.

"Well you better give up now or else that experiment will fail." Gray said with a sigh.

He felt like he proved his point and continued to walk home. He was tired and wanted to get away from Veronica, which he thought was crazy. But what Veronica yelled out before he was out of ear shot shocked him more than anything.

"You will fall in love in seven days!"

Hmmmmm...curious! I wonder what's gonna happen next! You'll just have to find out in the next chapter! x3 Until Then!
