"Gray!" The blue-haired girl screamed, sitting up abruptly.
She frantically looked around her room, sighing.
It was just a dream.
And lying next to her was Gray Fullbuster, looking at her with worried eyes.
"Juv? What's up?" He asked her, rubbing his eyes.
Juvia breathed in deeply, lying back into the blankets. "Just a dream."
Gray nodded and pulled her against him, bringing the blanket around them.
"…Gray?" Juvia whispered into the darkness.
"Mmmmh?"
Juvia turned in his arms, wrapping her own around his neck. "I love you more than you could ever imagine. You know that, right?"
Gray chuckled into the darkness. "Geez, it must've been a pretty scary dream. Do you want to talk about it?"
Juvia shook her head. "No. I'd rather not."
Gray kissed her plump lips with a smile. "I love you too. More than you know."
Juvia turned herself around as Gray brought his arm around her waist. He kissed her neck softly. "Good night, Juvia."
"Huh," Erza sighed. "That's a pretty strange dream."
I was sitting with her at the bar of the guildhall, along with Lucy.
Said blonde was looking at me with worried eyes. "I wonder what brought that on?"
My eyes narrowed as I recalled the terrifying feeling of losing Gray…
...Over and over again.
"And, that's not the worst of it," I started. Erza leaned back on the bar with her arms crossed over her chest. "I've been having this dream every night for the past two weeks."
Lucy cocked her head, humming silently. "That's just so weird! I've never had those dreams about Natsu, and we've been dating for six months…"
Erza rolled her eyes. "Lucy, we know what type of dreams you have about Natsu. You guys are both just worrying about nothing. I have repetitive dreams all the time, it's nothing."
I nodded, blushing. "Sorry. It's just… terrifying, you know? Like, I've been losing him over and over again in my mind for so long… it's exhausting, is all."
I looked over at Gray, who was cursing and yelling at Natsu, who did the same in return.
"Ice-brain! Let's take this outside!" Natsu screamed as their heads smashed together.
"Yeah, alright, Flame Brain! I'll rip you to—"
"Enough!" Erza roared. She stalked towards them with a mad look in her eyes. The boys immediately backed away from each other, quivering.
"Yes, ma'am, sorry for disturbing you," Natsu muttered, terrified.
"It won't happen again, Erza, it's just that… he started it!"
Natsu opened his mouth as if to retort, but was silenced by a look from Erza.
I laughed silently as the trio conversed. As Erza walked away, Natsu came towards us, and Gray returned to his seat with Elfman.
I looked at Lucy, who was staring at Natsu with an affectionate smile. He was walking towards us with an excited grin.
As he neared us, Natsu look Lucy in his arms with a devious smile.
"Hey, Luce," he said cheerfully.
Lucy nodded curiously. "What?"
"We haven't been on a job in a while, I was wondering if you wanted to go on one? There's actually a few good jobs up on the board right now, it could be fun!"
Lucy's face lit up. "Yes! Awesome idea!" She cast me a kind look, and glanced at Gray. "And maybe Juvia and Gray can join us?"
Natsu nodded. "Yeah. Cool!"
Natsu let some light flames flow to his fingertips, taking some of his salmon hair in his hands. Light smoke appeared and he took his hand away.
His own unique way of doing his hair.
"Happy! Gray! Get over here!"
Happy emerged from a seat beside Carla and Lily, and Gray's head flicked up.
"What do you want?"
"We're going on a job!"
Gray nodded, shrugging. "Okay. What're we doing? Is Erza coming?"
"No," Erza interrupted. "I'm actually busy."
Lucy's eyebrows rose. "You're never busy."
Erza blushed, looking at her feet. "Well, I am."
Lucy sighed, jumping onto her boyfriend's back. "Natsu! Let's goooo!"
"Yeah, alright!" Natsu yelled with a grin as he hoisted her up.
I shook my head, amused.
He was giving her a piggyback ride.
"Happy! Come on!"
Happy's wings emerged as he followed behind Lucy and Natsu, frantically trying to keep up with them.
Gray looked at me, taking my hand. He smiled.
"Come on, Juv. Let's go on an adventure."
