AN: Important things will occur in this chapter! ;D I liked writing this I never wrote something like it before. Anyway… here we go!

"That kiss isn't the only thing I am here to show to you." Fate squeezed his shoulder. "Come on. I'm gonna show you the moment you actually lost her." And there was the light again.

Time Skipped?

"Where... no, when are we?" Gray opened his eyes and was confused when he saw Magnolia's Cathedral. It was a sunny day, the building was decorated. Appeared that the church was being used.

"Two years in the future." Fate said entering the Cathedral with Gray following her. "Lyon and Juvia had been dating for a year and a half."

"What?" Gray was confused. They were walking down the aisle but he didn't even bother to look to the people sitting.

"Yes. Well, after all that time, Lyon thought she was finally ready to ask her to marry him." Fate said and waited for the exaggerated reaction from the guy following her and she wasn't disappointed when she heard his half-scream.

"WHAT?"

"Marriage, Gray. United forever and all that." Fate stopped and turned around.

"But…" The Ice Mage was very confused;

"So, they arranged it all and four months later, the wedding's taking place." She opened her arms, showing the filled Cathedral.

"Wait…" Gray finally looked to the couple standing in the altar. He was seeing very familiar with that shade of blue in the bride's hair. "Is this…?"

"And that's what I want you to see." Fate stepped to the altar and pointed to the blue haired woman and the silver haired man. "That's the marriage of Lyon" She pointed to the smiling man. "And Juvia" Fate pointed to the blue haired woman.

"WAIT!" Gray looked to his nakama and the man he knew since he was a child. And he had to admit that Lyon looked happier than he ever saw. And Juvia… she looked stunning and pretty happy too. "Why are you showing me this?" He asked in a whisper.

"I told you. That's when you lost her forever." Fate shrugged.

"You told me that they were dating for a year before… this." Gray pointed at the couple, stepping closer to them, giving a look to them. They looked… happy.

"A year and a half, yes." The goddess nodded.

"It means that I… lost Juvia earlier, right?" Fate smirked a little. He was getting into it. The first step was admitting that he had her somehow.

"No, because you were too blind."

"I was?" Gray didn't understand.

"Here, let me show you." She looked to the crowd, searching for something and she spotted it, Fate pointed and Gray was surprised to see himself sitting in the second row of chairs. His future self looked a little annoyed with something. "See that moment, right… now?" Future Gray's face became pale and he started blinking really fast, snapping his head to the bride and groom on the altar. "You just realized it."

"Realized what?" Gray frowned.

"Oh, oh… and now…" Fate was excited while Future Gray's eyes widened and his mouth opened a little bit, as if he was surprised with something. "You knew you were stupid."

"Hey!" Gray felt insulted.

"I just read your thoughts. Nothing more." Fate smiled and they watched Future Gray again.

"If anyone has something against this marriage, talk now." No one else noticed, but Juvia's eyes snapped to Future Gray and he stared back at her; but the man said nothing. He couldn't say anything. What right did he have? After all those years, he couldn't interfere in her happiness when she was getting married?

"By the power invested in me…" The priest start saying and Future Gray seemed to be struggling with something. Juvia's eyes returned to her soon-to-be-husband and she smiled to him. "I pronounce you husband and wife."

Gray just turned a little bit green with all the things he was seeing. He just witnessed Juvia marrying Lyon. As if he wasn't confused enough as it was.

"That small moment, the moment Juvia looked at you, Gray… That was your last chance." Gray couldn't say a word. His throat was dry as he just stared while Lyon and Juvia kissed, celebrating the union. "She gave you one last chance, in her wedding day."

"I didn't take it." He said to himself.

"No. You lost her forever this day, because she gave you up completely after that." Fate stared to Gray, who had become pale with all the information.

"She gave up…"

"Yes." The blonde goddess nodded.

"Did we…?" Gray asked weakly. Lyon and Juvia were holding hands and walking towards the end of the church, just married. "Were we still friends after… this?" He never stopped looking until the couple couldn't be seen anymore.

"I'll show you." Fate said, messing with the necklace and Gray waited for the light again.

-TFWCE-

Gray knocked on the white door and heard a small: 'Come in' and he stepped inside the room. The first thing he spotted was the blue of her hair. Juvia Lo… No, Juvia Bastia (even after almost six years, Gray still forgot about her new last name) was lying on the bed, looking very tired but utterly happy. She was holding a small bundle of sheets and Gray knew exactly what it was.

"Hey." He greeted her with a smile. "How are you feeling?"

"Fantastic." Juvia smiled and looked down to her arms. "He is perfect."

Gray stepped closer to the bed to take a look. The baby Juvia was holding was quiet, sleeping peacefully. The small amount of hair that the child had was silver-ish, like his father's.

Lyon's child. With Juvia.

"With exception of his hair, he looks like you, Juvia." Gray said honestly. "He has your eyes."

"Do you think so, Gray?" She had stopped calling him –sama after she and Lyon started dating and before Gray realize his feelings for her, he was too stubborn to say that he missed it.

"Yes." He smiled. "What's his name?" Gray asked after a few seconds.

"Ulysses." Juvia looked up from the baby to stare at her old love. "Lyon and Juvia wanted to honor Ul in some way, so…"

"It's a great name. Strong." Gray managed to say but there was something forming in his throat, an urge to scream. But he couldn't. He was there to support Juvia and see her child. The child she had with another man.

"Do you want to hold him, Gray-sama?" Juvia asked quietly and Gray's heart made a cartwheel inside his chest. It has been years since she last called him that. She probably didn't even realize that she slipped and Gray wouldn't point it out.

"No, thanks. I am not good with kids and…" He was saying, when Juvia started to put the baby in his arms. "Hey! Juvia."

"Don't worry. You'll be fine." She giggled and finished giving him the baby boy and Gray was amazed with the tiny little person he was holding. "See? Juvia told you."

"Yes, you did." Gray was looking down to the child in awe. He truly was perfect. Ulysses yawned, opening his mouth as far as he could without waking up and Gray found himself smiling to his actions. That small human was the most amazing thing he ever saw, and Gray Fullbuster had seen a lot of great things. But nothing compared to the miracle he was holding. His hands were so small, his nose was exactly like Juvia's, and so were his mouth. Ulysses was really perfect. "He'll definitely be an Ice Mage."

"That's what I keep telling Juvia." A male voice echoed through the room and Gray looked up from Ulysses, only to find Lyon already next to his wife's bed. Gray was so into the baby that he didn't even see his friend come in. "And she tells me that he'll choose whichever magic suits him better."

"And doesn't matter which Guild he'll enter too." Juvia looked to her husband, smiling.

"Yeah, yeah." Lyon dismissed her, playfully. "But he already has a spot in Lamia Scale." Juvia giggled and Lyon turned his gaze to Gray. "My son will be a heartbreaker, right, Gray?"

"Yes." The dark haired man's inside twisted. For a minute he had forgotten that the child he was holding was Lyon's. He forgot that Juvia was married to him. He forgot that he lost his chance and entered in a dream where he was holding his son with her. He forgot and he felt bad for it. "He looks like Juvia. If he looked like you, he would've suffered in the future."

"Hey!" Lyon said playfully indignant. "I happen to be very good looking. Right, honey?" Lyon asked his wife and she nodded.

That wasn't right. Honey. She wasn't 'Honey', she was Juvia Loxar. Gray wanted to scream at him, but he had no right. That was their time together. It was their family.

"Well, I just came to see how you were, so I gotta go." Gray handed the child back to Juvia. He looked up to Lyon. "Congratulations, man."

"Thank you." Lyon offered a big smile, without any trace of rivalry. He was truly happy and Gray envied it with all his being.

"And you too, Juvia." Their eyes met and they stayed locked longer than it was necessary.

"Thanks, Gray." He nodded and turned around to go away.

When he reached the door, Gray looked over his shoulders and his heart sunk into his chest. Juvia had Ulysses in her arms and she was looking adoringly at him and Lyon was sitting by her side, with the same look, but directed to both Juvia and the baby. They were a family.

A family he would never be a part of.

-TFWCE-

Everything stopped.

Fate and Gray were next to Juvia's bed the whole time, seeing Future Gray's look of amazement with the child and then turned into one of envy. Future Gray wanted what Lyon had.

Speaking of Gray, he was still looking blankly to where Juvia had been holding her child. Now, with the time stopped, he could really look to the new formed family not truly believing his eyes.

"Fate, I just asked if we would still be friends." He said, still not tearing his eyes off Juvia, Lyon and Ulysses. "You didn't have to show me that."

"Well, you asked me if you would still be friends. What's the better way to show you this than with her entrusting her newborn to you? She certainly wouldn't do that with an enemy." Fate tried to be funny, but Gray wasn't up for it. Not anymore. Things were serious now.

"You could've told me 'yes' or 'no'. That would have been more than enough." Gray practically growled to the goddess, who didn't seem to notice. Maybe if she wasn't a goddess she could've been scared, but she was immortal.

"No, it wouldn't. You would've misinterpreted. I showed you what you needed me to show you." She shrugged.

"They got married and had a kid." Gray was still looking to the frozen image of the couple and their child. "Lyon and Juvia."

"Yes."

"All because I didn't go to the stupid mission?" Gray turned to stare at Fate and he was angry. Very angry.

"No. Because you…" Fate tried to talk, but he interrupted.

"…'made decisions in your life that led to that moment'. I know. Stop saying this! Does that mean that I screw things up?" He passed a hand over his hair and started to walk from one side to another, looking like a caged tiger. "But how can a small moment like that change… everything!"

"What do you mean by change?" Fate asked, interested.

"That wasn't how it is supposed to be, is it?" He stopped and pointed to where the future couple was looking to their son. "That wasn't supposed to happen, right? I know it wasn't! You're here to make sure that I go back to my tracks or something!" He pointed to Fate. "She wasn't supposed to end up with him, right?"

"Yes." Fate smiled. "Now you're getting it."


AN: Yes, Juvia stopped calling Gray '-sama' because you dating someone and calling another guy '-sama' would be weird. And Ulysses is cute. I never thought I would actually made Juvia have a baby with Lyon. Heck, I didn't even know I was going to write something other than one-sided Lyvia! :O I am surprised with myself.

Anyway, GO GRAY! *_* And I love Fate even more right now. :3

Next chapter preview!

"Can you at least tell me if she would have been happy with me?"

"Hm… No." Gray opened his mouth to protest, but Fate held her hand, telling him to shut up. "But I can say one thing…" She pointed to Juvia, who was smiling to her son with happiness and love written all over her face. "In this life, she smiles like that to her son. In the life she has with you, she wears that smile every day until the day she dies for no reason."

We're reaching the end, guys! T_T I'll write chapter four tomorrow morning! I don't have classes on mondays. LUCKY! Anyway, I am pretty sure that I am already asleep right now... :O Love you, guys!
