Kitty: This is my entry for Gruvia week (which starts today!)
Juvia: So Juvia and Gray-sama…. has a week? We have a week?! Juvia is so happy!
Gray: Kitty, why did you do this to her? Now she's never going to leave me alone!
Kitty: And do you really want that, Gray? Kukukukuku…. (I don't own Fairy Tail.)
Prompt: Hair
(Modern AU) Her hair was always his favorite thing in the world, no matter how long it was.
She was beyond nervous. What will he think of it? It was a new look that Lucy had convinced her to try out, and after some time, she did. But it's new and different and not her usual look. It's not how she had it when she met her precious Gray. She always wore it down by her waist or in a bun or in some other kind of way that he could play with it. Now, it barely goes past her shoulders. Sighing, Juvia put her hair in a bun (the best she could do) and got to work on their dinner.
As she chopped the vegetables for the soup, Juvia began to question her decision to cut her hair. Sure, it seemed like a good idea at the time. That's just the thing, though. It was good at the time, but not now. She just thinks that it's a stupid thing that she did. Like the time she pierced her belly button because Gajeel (her best friend) convinced her to. Or like the time Natsu said that she should get a tattoo of something she likes despite her no tattoo policy. Or maybe like the time her boyfriend said that she should quit her job as a waitress and do something else. Okay, the last one actually helped her in her goal of opening up her little cupcake shop downstairs, but everything else was stupid.
Juvia was so wrapped up in her thoughts that she didn't even notice that Gray got home. She totally missed his routinely 'Honey, I'm home' joke that he would always say. It started just to make fun of generic couple, but it somehow turned into something that had to happen or it just wouldn't feel right. The bluenette didn't even notice that he walked into the kitchen until his arms wrapped around her waist. "Hey," he said. "I'm home."
She giggled before turning around in his arms. "And Juvia's glad. Go get changed, please. Dinner will be ready soon." Gray nodded and kissed her lips. His black hair hung over his eyes as he looked at her own blue ones. They were filled with so much love and adoration. That just made her reveal even harder.
Her boyfriend kissed her lips one more time before he left to go change out of his work clothes. When he disappeared behind the wall separating the kitchen from the hallway, she sighed and went back to dinner. It was just a simple soup with a side of homemade bread, which was about to-
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
-be finished. Juvia smiled before she took it out and placed it onto the cutting board. It was Gray's favorite thing that she made second to her triple chocolate cake. The smell wafted up to her nose in a pleasing way. "Ah," she sighed. "Juvia thinks it turned out right!"
"I think so, too," Gray said as he walked into their tiny kitchen. He sat down at the table and watched as Juvia poured his soup into a bowl. He placed his head in his hand curiously. "Did you do something different with your hair, Juv?" Juvia stiffened for a bit then shrugged. "Just a little trim," she managed to get out. "You won't be able to tell with my hair up like this." Oh, gosh. What is he going to think about it? Will he… Will he break up with me if he didn't like it?"
Gray smiled at his girlfriend. It was a small smile, but it was enough to make her stomach do somersaults. "Maybe you could take it down for me later?" He asked her, earning a nod from the blue haired girl. "Yeah," she said when she sat down. "Maybe I will."
The movie they were watching was terrible. She just couldn't bear to watch another moment of whatever the hell they were watching. Juvia groaned and leaned into Gray's chest, causing him to look down at her. "What?" He asked. She drew circles on his shirt. "Can we do something else? Or watch something else? Which ever one you choose is good with Juvia."
Gray smirked before bringing her face towards his. He raised a dark eyebrow. "What were you thinking that we could do, Juv?" It was obvious what he was implying, and Juvia would be lying if she didn't want to do that. Deciding that sex was way better than the shitty movie, she swung her leg over his torso and leaned down to his lips, just barely touching them. "I was thinking," she breathed, "that we could do something… naughty." She kissed his lips lightly before pulling back. Yes, Juvia was quite the tease, but Gray was demanding. He grabbed her face and attacked her lips, pushing her down onto the comfy couch. Their lips moved together in a somewhat perfect harmony. All of her thoughts were completely erased until he went to undo her hair.
She broke the kiss apart when he managed to get her wavy blue locks unwounded. They fell down quickly, just brushing her shoulders. She gave a nervous smile when she saw that Gray's eyes widened. "Juvia decided to get her hair cut today. It was a spur of the moment thing. It's totally different from how she normally has it, and it looks a little bit weird, and it doesn't suit me… D-do you like it?" Her nerves increased when Gray didn't say anything. The only sound in the room was the shitty movie and their breathing.
"Gray?"
Oh gosh, what is he going to say? Will he break up with her? He's totally going to break up her. She closed her eyes, afraid of what he is going to say.
His hands ran through her blue locks slowly. He smiled before leaning his head on hers. "Juvia," Gray said, using her real name. It was rare that he called her anything else but 'Juv', but sometimes, it had to be done. He kissed her nose lightly. "I love it. I think it's cuter and you. Plus, it reminds me of the ocean. Short and wavy but leaves a statement. It's totally a Juvia thing."
Juvia cracked open a blue eye and met his. He wasn't joking, wasn't pulling a prank, wasn't doing anything bad. Just… looked at her lovingly. It was nice. Smiling shyly, the bluenette reached her arms around to the back of Gray's neck, tugging slightly at his black locks. "You really like it?" She asked. Gray nodded. "Yes, I do." Juvia leaned up and kissed his lips slowly. He pressed back with an equal amount of force. It wasn't long before Gray picked his girlfriend up and carried her back into the bedroom. Neither of them got any sleep that night.
Kitty: This isn't my usual length, but eh whatever. And so many follows on 'All Because of the Gay Best Friend'! I just kept getting emails for the next few days after I posted it! Anyways, I hope that you enjoyed this!
