Chapter 2: Hopeless Romantic


Normal POV:

"ehhh?!" Juvia almost yelled in shock after hearing what Lucy-san just said.
"Gray-sama's affected about Juvia and Lyon-sama's date next week?" she whispered.
"Yeah. I wonder what he'll do though. He seems jealous." Lucy said.
"Maybe Juvia should cancel it and talk to Gray-sama."
"Wait! No. Don't you want to know what Gray feels about you?"
"Juvia wants to know. But Juvia will feel guilty. Juvia don't want her Gray-sama to get mad at her."
"Okay. Okay. Anyway, why did you ignored Gray yesterday? It's not like you." Lucy asked taking a sip on her drink.
"Juvia noticed. But Juvia just don't want to annoy Gray-sama anymore like she always do. Juvia heard Gray-sama talking to Gajeel-kun after he came back from a mission. Gray-sama preferred not to be bothered. Juvia will just let him be."
"So that's why you accepted Lyon's invitation when he came here the other day? So you can forget about what you feel for Gray?"

She nodded.

Lucy let out a small sigh as she took Juvia's hand and looked at her.
"You don't have to do that, you know."
"Juvia wants to forget her feelings for Gray-sama but she can't. Because he showed her the clear sky she's been longing to see. He showed her that anyone can change and have a new life. Juvia will be forever grateful with him. But Juvia need to try for Gray-sama's sake as well."

Lucy stood up from where she was sitting and walked beside Juvia to give her a hug as Juvia's tears keep rolling from her eyes.

'I can't say anything that will ruin Gray's move. If Juvia only knew what she said about Gray getting annoyed by her was the other way around. Poor Gray. Such a hopeless romantic.' Lucy thought to herself.


Why is it raining? One minute the sky was so clear then a heavy rain just came from nowhere. We've never experienced this kind of rain ever since...' Gray thought as he was running from his apartment to the guild but halt when he remembered something.

"...Since... the attack of the Phantom Lord when I... when Juvia and I met and had fought with each other... It can't be." Gray said to himself as he started running again to the guild with only one thought and only one name on his head, Juvia.
