Fairy Tail: Hiro Mashima


CHAPTER 4

"His Jealousy"


Natsu was having a nice conversation with his beloved; Lucy Heartfilia. Well, it's more like him listening to her breathing- talking to Erza and Gray about homework and stuff while he just stood there; leaning on his locker and stares at her beauty. "She's so beautiful today. Wait, no- she's beautiful every day."

"Hello friend." Juvia Loxar suddenly draws near them, waving cheerfully at Natsu, Erza and Lucy, "And Gray." She said the boy's name flatly and Gray couldn't help but rolled his eyes at her, "Juvia." He replied, but got ignored by the said girl as she approaches Lucy and ignored the other three.

"Lucy." Juvia grabs the blonde's wrist, "I love the book you recommended to me. It was amazing. I love the story line. Everything is so youthful about it."

In the next 10 minutes; all Natsu could hear was Lucy and Juvia talking about books, fan fiction, yaoi- which suddenly excites Erza more than ever and join the girl's conversation. And from the look of Gray's giving him; he rather not wanting to know what was that all about. Still, he wondered- since when did Juvia suddenly become so close to his Lucy?


After hours later, Natsu couldn't take it anymore.

Juvia kept pestering Lucy all day long and it annoyed him so much. Even during lunch break, he saw Juvia casually sitting at Lucy's side, next to his beloved and the blue haired even bold enough to ask Lucy to take a selfie with her and shared a Popsicle together.

"Juvia, what are your intentions at Lucy Heartfilia?" He finally asks her. They're currently standing on top of the school's rooftop, a chilly breeze surrounds them- if people didn't know better, they might think both of them are enemies or something. Natsu folded his arms and looks at his childhood friend with a serious expression, "Explain yourself girl." He said.

Juvia folded her arm as well and smirks at the pink haired boy. She is not a bit intimidated by him, "Why do you care? Oh, by the way, is she seeing anyone Natsu?" She asks; avoiding Natsu's question. "She's a cutie, but I am pretty sure she's single right? Seeing how innocent she was about the topic I discussed with her yesterday."

"Back off Juvia!" Natsu suddenly loses his cool and grabs Juvia's arm, "She's off limit, find someone else!" The boy stares intensely at his childhood friend; his face is burning with rage, "Friend or not, you touch her, I'll kill you."

"Don't provoke me boy."


"Why am I here?" Gray asks Natsu, "And why is she here?" His eyes turns to Juvia who looks like she just ran a marathon- Gray wanted to ask why, but then he was pushed on the bed harshly by Juvia. "What the hell is your problem Juvia?"

"Shut up Gray!" She shouts at him, "Now, Natsu. What was the emergency? I had to leave all my dinner- this better be something important." A while ago, Natsu just called her in his typical panicked voice and it worried her so much, so she rushed towards the Dragneel mansion as fast as she could-

"Juvia." Natsu took a deep breath and grabs both her arms, "Gray likes you."

"What!" Both Juvia and Gray shout at the same time; Natsu had to cover his ears for that. After a while, Juvia looks rather calm, unlike Gray, who seems to blush like a mad man. "Dude, what the fuck?" Gray shouts, he wanted to kill Natsu and then kill himself. He felt betrayed; Natsu Dragneel just told Juvia Loxar, his one and only deepest secret-

Natsu ignored Gray, "He has a crush on you since 2nd grade Juvia. Gray loves you." He even emphasizes the word love slowly and clearly just so the girl can really get what he meant. "Now, that ought to do it. So, stay away from Lucy!"

"Dude!"
