A/N: It has come to my attention that I haven't uploaded anything in a while, so to try and regain my writing inspiration I'll start with this. Spoiler warning for those who haven't read the manga. I also don't own ft in any way, shape or state.

Seriously, having your father's spirit lounging around your house was a pain in the ass. As Silver wondered around the house making uncomfortable questions ("so why the strip habit? Seriously son, can't you do the dishes? When your mother and I were alive we always left the sink spotless, it would do you some good to learn that habit, this bedroom is like a disaster area! Who lives like this?!) Seriously the nerve of that guy, bossing him around like; Well, like a father would do!

(He didn't secretly relish those moments he was getting with his dad for a couple of days, no, not at all.)

But the worst thing was that apparently Juvia had made a mission to communicate something to him, maybe she would have said the thing if his father didn't interrupt by shoving her to his arms or letting embarrassing stuff on plain sight (he swears he kept the Juvia dakimakura because it would be rude to toss it).

Just as he was musing about these things the bell of his house rang again signaling the arrival of Juvia. As his father appeared in the living room, Gray made an attempt to make his father behave.

"Are you really going to interrupt her today?" he asked annoyed.

'Well, excuse me for wanting to tell good news to my wife when I meet her' was the retort of the incorporeal being.

"Geez I preferred you more when you were one of the nine demon gates" Gray said as he headed for the door, anything was better than this prankster of a father.

"Hey Juvia, do you want to come in?" Gray greeted the girl that had been coming for the past few days, she seemed very determined to tell him something but his father always interrupted her.

"Thank you Gray-sama, there's something I've wanted to tell you" she said as she collected courage to speak to him.

"You see, what I've been wanting to say is that-

Just then a couple of books fell from the bookcase of his living room, definitely his dad's work.

It just happened that the one book that fell with its pages open was Gray's old photo album.

Juvia fought hard to suppress the squeal that threatened to escape of her mouth. Regaining her composure she proceeded to help him pick up the books. "Gray-sama's books will keep falling if he keeps them unsteady" she told him as she folded again the photo album, but still a page that had a brownish color fell off.

As she picked the old page up the spirit of silver manifested itself behind her to get a peek of the peculiar paper.

As Gray realized what the page contained he dashed to take it of Juvia's hand but the two of them had already seen the drawing that had been made in it.

The drawing had been made when Gray was around seven years old, it depicted two stick figures to be his father and mother and a smaller stick figure that was Gray himself.

As Silver gaped with watery eyes (if spirits have watery eyes at all) the combination of cuteness and guilt was too much for Juvia who promptly fainted.

"Wait! No! Juvia!" Gray reached to her as he tried to wake her up. "Hey, I could use some help over here!" He yelled at Silver who was still tearing up at the sight of the drawing.

'Oh yeah, I've heard mouth to mouth resuscitation works wonders in these cases' the spirit said as he regained composure.

"Why did I even bother?" Gray said defeated.

Oh what a week this was turning out to be.
