A/N: Soo, the actions take place after the Tartarus Arc, without Fairy Tail disbanding. Thing is, I'm too lazy to continue writing after the horizontal line, and at first this was supposed to be a one-shot but I guess I'll turn it into a fanfic?

It was an usual day in Magnolia. It was sunny and pleasant.

Fairy Tail were, as usual, ones arguing, others just sitting and chatting, third looking for a well-paid work. Everyone had something to do.

It's been two motnhs since they've been just through hard times. Both Juvia and Gray have dealt with some tough, both psychically and physically traumatizing stuff. Like defeating Silver. But they went through it, together, and eventually their bond became stronger and more balanced than ever.

But what Juvia didn't know was that the way the events turned out does not change Gray's personality. Though she was aware he's not a person to change his acting entirely suddenly, she expected him to be at least... a little bit more gentle towards her feelings.

But no.


Juvia has been acting really weird lately. Out of character. She hasn't been talking much and oppositely to her usual self - has been avoiding the ice mage of the guild, Gray Fullbuster.

After the return from the battlefield, Gray and Juvia came back hand in hand, though after that things have been pretty awkward for both of them. Juvia has been having nightmares about Silver even after Gray comforting and thanking her multiple times, the trauma stayed, actually for both of them. Yet it couldn't be helped.
And now 2 months after this they just got over it. And perhaps, separated ways? Or so it seemed.
