Chapter 1

It was a rainy Friday afternoon when he saw her drenching herself on the cold rain. He had no idea what got into her brain when she stood straightly on the sidewalk while people looked at her as if she had gone crazy. Natsu never bothered about people but looking at that girl always bothered him. So the next thing he did made him surprise as he hurriedly crossed the street. He pushed some people who are on his way as he dashed towards the girl and grabbed her arm then ran again to find some dry place to dwell in. He could hear her squeak and protest but he chose to ignore it. When they arrived on a café, they situated themselves on a small veranda and Natsu finally released his grip on her. Looking at this girl gave him a complex feeling of annoyance, anger and…pity. She was not his friend; just a classmate and he didn't know her well. So he never bothered to talk to her but almost every day she was annoying him. At this moment where the rain still continued to pour down and thunder began to sound, he had to express those words that he had kept to her for a long time.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?!"

His yell was paired with a loud clap of thunder, making everyone in the area gasp and jolt. It was only the girl in front of him who remained frozen and just stared at him in shock. She looked more surprise at his yell than the thunder. Natsu watched the girl blinked then took off her glasses as she wiped it with her wet handkerchief. She put it on afterwards then looked at him.

"W-why did you grab Juvia?"

He could see her lips quivered slightly as she tried to focus her stare on him.

"I grabbed you…" He intake a sharp breath then gave her a glare. "Because you're fucking annoying me. A lot."

A look of surprise crossed on her face then it quickly vanished and replaced by anger.

"If you're annoyed with Juvia then ignore her." The bluehaired girl spat as the thunder roared again, making her finally jolted in surprise. Hugging herself, she turned away. "You can leave Juvia now."

Sighing in exasperation, Natsu took out his scarf on his bag then discourteously wrapped it around her neck. Juvia turned around and sent him a glare but despite of it, she didn't take off his scarf. The two of them remained standing as they watched the water from the sky heavily dropped on the ground.

"Why are you drenching yourself on the rain?"

Juvia glanced at Natsu from the corner on her eye, kind of surprise at his sudden question and heavily sighed. "It's none of your business."

He could feel a vein popped on his head at her impertinence as he clenched his jaw. "Look. This is the first time we have ever talked and we'll graduate after two weeks. Can we at least have some nice convo before we go separate ways?"

She sneezed in reply as his eyes twitched in annoyance. "Okayyy. So what's your favorite color?"

"Why do you care?"

"What food do you like?"

"You're annoying Juvia."

"So you like horror movies?"

"Stop it."

"Why do you like Gray so much?"

Silent ensued as Juvia shut her mouth and Natsu triumphantly smirked at her. He had hit a spot. He only knew this girl for two things: She likes Gray, his best friend, and she is Gray's stalker. His elder brother told him before that stalking is a bad habit and unhealthy for a person so Natsu had entrenched a bad perception of stalking in his mind. When he met Juvia for the first time, it was when he was in second year and he and his best friend once entered a video game store. Few seconds later the girl followed. He thought it was just a coincidence until several meetings with her became suspicious. And his suspicion was right when he caught her waiting and hiding outside of the basketball gym. Natsu knew that Gray was oblivious about this because if he did, the latter would have confronted her already. This girl was just too stealthy at her moves but it was never gone unnoticed by Natsu.

"Why is Natsu asking about this? You never talk to Juvia. So why do you care about this?" she countered, finally facing him with defiance and anger visible in her eyes.

Her questions mentally punched him as he searched for the right answer. Come to think of it, why does he care about this? About her? She was just an ordinary glasses girl with good grades and plain looks. She was too ordinary that she had few friends from other class but preferred to be by herself more in their class. But despite of being ordinary, she had an obsession of his best friend who never noticed her. So why does she annoy him so much whenever he looks at her?

"Maybe because you look sad."

Natsu stated, thinking aloud. Juvia arched her brow in surprise as her mouth opened for a moment then closed it when she looked down."Juvia isn't sad. And it doesn't matter to you at all so don't bother."

Natsu could feel his anger boiling inside of him. She was being hard and he was controlling his patience. He was always impatient and hot-tempered but for the sake of not hurting girls because hurting girls is not cool according to his brother, he had to remain calm.

"Can you fucking stop lying to me! It matters to me because I don't like it. I hate seeing you making dejected faces everyday. I hate seeing you acting indifferent as if you didn't care about others but deep inside you really want others to care about you. I mean what the fuck! You're sitting at my front and every time you turn around; I always sense that depressed aura of yours! It's kinda killer mood! And you said that you're not sad?! I'll tell you this you rainwoman, if you learn to smile always Gray will surely notice you. And here comes that bastard. It's kinda frustrating seeing you stalking him almost everyday yet you can't even say hello to him. We have fifteen days left before graduation; make yourself known to him dammit!"

Natsu panted after his long soliloquy and mentally berated himself for not containing his calmness. He watched Juvia widened her eyes in genuine shock at his assertion then slowly averted his gaze as she gripped the hem of his scarf tighter with her hands.

"You don't know Juvia." She hissed.

"I know you. Maybe a little." Natsu interjected as he suddenly opened his bag and rummaged on it. Juvia watched him curiously as he took out a royal blue notebook, making her eyes widened in horror.

"Where did you get that?!" She quickly grabbed it away from him as Natsu crossed his arms. He watched her hugging her diary on her chest, her head down and her wet blue locks cascaded her face. "Did you read it?"

Regardless of the noise of the rain, he could still hear her words. He sighed at her question and roamed his eyes on the street.

"Aside from Gray, you like ice creams and yogurts. Your favorite flavor is peppermint. You like romantic and horror movies and rock music and guess what, we have the same favorite band." He turned to her and smile but his smile was met with a smash of her diary. Groaning in pain, he put his hands on his face. "Geez what the fuck!"

"You invaded Juvia's privacy! I hate you!" she yelled in anger.

Eyes squinting and face scrunching in pain, he faced her. "I was only reading the first page since it's just like a mini info about you and I was curious but I hadn't read the others." He winced again as he touched his nose and gently caressed it.

"Sorry if Juvia hurt you."Juvia apologized at what she recklessly did. "But still you're such an ass."

"I know. That's why I read the part where you wanted to be friends with the other girls in the class but you're too shy to approach and hang out with them." And then another smash of her diary followed but this time, it aimed on his shoulder. "Oww! Hey! Hey! Just because you're a girl doesn't mean I can't get mad at you!"

"You have no right to get mad because what you did was awful and disgusting!"

"If I didn't do it, until now I might still find you annoying and weird. And I might never understand you."

That caught her off-guard as she stood frozen and just gaped at him. He grinned and snickered. "And you're just a typical shy girl than I expected."

The rain finally stopped as some customers on the café came out, probably waiting for the rain to stop so they could go home. Natsu and Juvia remained on their spot.

"Until now, Juvia doesn't understand why Natsu is with her right now." Juvia said as she readjusted her glasses.

"Oh damn, you're an honor student yet you're slow at things." He quipped, earning a glare from her. "Of course I wanna talk and vent my frustrations about you that's why I did that. And now I finally did it, I also wanna be friends with you before we graduate."

She just gave him a blank expression and sighed. "Juvia's gonna go now." She started to walk, leaving him.

"Hey wait!" He held her arm, making her turn to him.

"Will you come tomorrow at Gajeel's? We're gonna have a barbecue party and our class will be there. What about you?"

She looked away and pondered for a second. "No. Juvia's not into that."

"Oh come on! It's your time to talk with the other girls. It's never too late to be friendly so drop that cold character of yours." Her glare was very lethal, making him want to abort his invitation for a second until an idea popped on his mind. "By the way, Gray will come there." He let go of his grip with a victory smirk and saw her cheeks turned into rosy pink at the mention of his crush.

"Juvia will think about it tonight." She flatly said then started to walk away.

"Hey! I got your number from your diary! I'll call ya tomorrow." He said with a cheeky smile.

She didn't reply but just shot him a furious glare before she strode off. His eye twitched and he grunted. He talked to her. He finally expressed his thoughts about her and he was relieved by that. Natsu wondered if her presence would bother him if they would see each other again in class. Sighing in satisfaction, he decided to leave and go home. He better rest for tomorrow he would party hard.
