And as always, I'm not a native!

~ 2 ~

Of course, the first thing that stroke her like a lightning were those memories. But she decided to think about them during her morning shower. Juvia always begun the day with one and she reflected on things under the hot running water.

As she scratched her head spreading the shampoo everywhere, her mind replayed everything and the funny feeling in her stomach reappeared. The warmth from there reached every corner of her body. She just couldn't tell how she was going to react the next time he was in front of her. What was she going to do? Yell like she wanted to do last night? Run away like she actually did? No, she was going to act like normal. She was not seeing him until next weekend and by that time she was going to have cooled off. Besides chatting through the internet like they always did was not a problem for her fingers were going to speak instead of her trembling voice.

But why was she so worried? What was she exactly worried about?

She was sure of being the only one over thinking things. She was the only one who shivered with nervousness whenever they touched by chance walking to her house; she was the one who answered with a stuttering voice sometimes and she was the one whose mind didn't let her sleep for a long time.

By the time she stepped out of the bath wrapped in a towel, she had decided. It was just a game and meant nothing; her sick imagination was playing with her.

Yes, a truly odd game that forced an animal like sound out of her.

She shook her head and combed her hair facing the mirror. The surface reflected her serious glare. Stop it already.

Once in her room, she begun dressing. When she was about to put on the blue shirt she realized something.

"Nii-san?" she asked. "Gajeel nii-san?".

Juvia smiled when the silence confirmed she was alone; her brother had already left for the practise with his band. With the 'home alone' fever running through her veins, she went out of her room chanting happily and descended the stairs. She placed a hand on the door knob of the kitchen and opened it.

She froze in the frame as she spotted the subject of her conflicted morning seating on her dinner table.

Why, why, WHY?!

Her sudden appearance took him for surprise and he stopped chewing as his eyes processed that she was not wearing a shirt.

"What the hell are you doing here?" she said while approaching the fridge. Act normal, act normal.

"Well, good morning for you too". He answered ironically and she gave him a crocked smile as she opened the door and looked for anything inside that would make her look away from him. She grabbed the milk and turned around heading for the larder, still avoiding the onyx eyes. Act normal, act normal.

"I see you are already enjoying breakfast, so what can I do for you?" she asked over her shoulder as her fingers got a hold of a random cereal box.

Gray resumed chewing while looking at her hand curiously. "I thought you hated raisins".

It took her two seconds to understand what he meant. She looked at the box she had just picked and face palmed herself inwardly. It was one of those multi-cereal things her mother loved and she along with Gajeel hated. Way to go, Juvia. "I-I got a like on them a few weeks ago" she lied while filling a bowl with milk and the so wrong cereal.

He simply shrugged as his hand went to his back pocket. "This little friend of yours woke me up this morning" he said as his fingers showed her a cellphone.

After the second face palm, a mentally bump was already there. She had escaped in such a rush that she even forgot the cellphone under the fallen bed cloth on the floor. She was not that fond on phones so leaving it behind was nothing odd in her. Tasting a raisin and frowning thanks to that, she stretched her arm. "Thank you; let's see who woke up the sleeping beauty" she said as she unlocked the screen by sliding her finger tip on it. There were two lost calls from Lucy.

Now Juvia could have run to her room excusing herself with calling back her friend, put on a shirt, and come back properly dressed. But she did the contrary; she put her phone on her pocket and finished eating before leaving the kitchen. Why? Simply, she didn't want to act like an hysteric girl and after all, she was one of those that wondered about the difference between under wear and swimsuits.

At least, that was before that morning in which she found out there was a huge and inexplicable difference. Talking with a guy without a shirt was truly awkward, even if he didn't seem to mind it.

That's it. That's why she decided to stay. Since he couldn't care less about her like that, why should she?

"I bumped into your brother just when he was leaving. I asked him if he could give it to you but he groaned and opened the door again letting me in". Thanks, nii-san was all she thought. "He told me to give it to you myself for he was already late".

"So that's why I found you emptying my larder" she commented pointing at the several things he had put on the table with her head. He nodded. "Okay, I'm going to call Lucy" she said standing up and heading for the door.

"Hey, Juvia" he called and she turned around to look at him. He rested his chin on his hand. "Do you always walk around your house like that? Even when your brother is home?" he asked mockingly.

Her middle finger answered for her and he laughed. "And you all say I'm the stripper one".

She pressed the green button for calling as she looked for something to put on. "Juvia! You finally call me" was the first thing the blond said.

Her friend chuckled. "Did something happen?"

"No, I just wanted to tell you the Ladies is on Levy's, bye!".

Juvia chuckled as she left the phone on the bed. She hadn't realized it was already the first saturday of september.

They didn't know when or how it started, but she and her closest girl friends had a tradition. The first saturday of every month they had a sleep over in one of their houses and since they did what girls usually do when gathered together, they called it "the ladies night".

Once fully dressed, she stepped into the kitchen and grabbed her purse and keys. "The last thing you can do now is joining me during the shop" she said with a smirk for she knew how much he despised going to the super market.

Gray scratched his head and sighed. "Fair enough" he agreed and stood up.

Just for you to know; that kind of thing does happen in real life. This did occurred to me.

I was taking a bath as my best friend waited down stairs in the living room. When I was drying my hair (without a shirt) I didn't hear him coming up with my ringing cellphone (mum of course). And yes, we did acted like normal; I said thanks while taking the phone and he simply said "you are welcome" and went down stairs.

Of course I exaggerated this in the chapter! Being the author I can play and tease the characters as much as I like, muahaha (?

So next time we get to meet 'the ladies', yay ~ (I said that in plural since not even I know what is going to happen on next chapter) and Gajeel has a band! I'm sorry if Juvia calling him 'Gajeel-niisan' instead of 'Gajeel-kun' was odd, but I wanted them to be siblings in this AU.

Hmm, Laxus or Freed for Mirajane? I don't really ship any of them for both are fine by me, but you guys decide about it for the future chapters.

Till next time if the lazy me writes something for chapter three.

Yumeko nee

Pd: I can't wait for those three chapters on friday!.
