*Juvia's POV*

"Yo sprinkler open up," I heard Gajeel-san banging through my door, "Wake up let's go on a mission."

I groggily got off my bed and went towards the door and opened it.

"Why do you have to wake Juvia up?" I scowled at him.

"Gee hee. So, you still slip at the third person thingy. Let's go on a mission. Been a while since we kicked some ass together," He teased me.

"Well yeah, Juvia's still sleepy. Why don't you ask Levy-chan instead?" I grumpily told him.

"Shrimp went on a mission with Jet and Droy," He grumbled, "Lily went with the two other exceeds to fix an aquarium," he went on, "That leaves you."

I sat on my couch and embraced my big throw pillow and yawned, "Go away Gajeel, Juvia's... I mean... I'm still sleepy."

"I'll treat you some ice cream if you go on a mission with me," I can feel his smirk in his tone. He knows that I can't resist ice cream.

I peeped at the top of my throw pillow, "You promise?"

"Yeah I promise," he assured me.

"Pinky promise?"

". . ."

"Then no," I went back in burying my face in my throw pillow.

"Fucking fine then," he scowled, "Pinky promise."

I sprung out of my couch and we intertwined our pinky fingers and went on to take a bath.

*Gray's POV*

I went to our guild head quarters to get a job request. I have to pay my rent soon anyway.

I entered the guild hall and immediately noticed the silver haired person.

"The fuck is he doing here?" I thought as I walked towards him, "Lyon."

"Yo Gray," he turned around to face me, "Sup?"

"Nothing much," I answered indifferently, "Why are you here?"

"Can't I pay my younger co-disciple a visit?" He said coolly.

"No. Cuz you are not here for me," I said casually, "You're here for Juvia."

"Says who? Well then, where is Juvia-chan?" He answered back.

"Haven't seen her," I replied and I sat on the bar and asked a drink from Mira Jane.

"Lyon-san!" We both turned around to see who called and I was not just shocked, but utmostly irritated that Juvia's calling Lyon and she seemed to be very excited about him being here.

"Juvia-chan!" He greeted back, and to my disappointment, she hugged the bastard, "Glad to see you! How are you keeping up with your new skill?" I was shocked that the bastard seemed to be updated with her life.

"It's fine. Every dragon slayer here helped me, even Laxus-san," she replied.

"Yo sprinkler, I found a competitive job request. Let's test those scales of yours," Gajeel called out.

"Scales? I don't have scales Gajeel-san," I heard her say with an innocent voice.

"Dragon slayers have scales," He smirked, "yours is in liquid form," he went down and handed the paper to Mira-Jane.

"We'll be going Lyon-san! Its great seeing you again," She waved, not noticing my presence, "Bye!"

She went off with Gajeel and skipped while shouting, "For ice cream!"

I smiled softly because I missed her jolly personality. I never thought I would see that again, well its because she did not notice my presence, but if she did... I am sure its different.

Lyon teased me and I punched him and scowled afterwards.

Then the usual brawl started.

"You can't ignore him forever," I told her.

"What do you mean by that Gajeel-san?" she asked.

"You acted as if he's not there a while ago," I pointed out.

"Who are you talking about?" She asked cluelessly.

"Your ice prince, sprinkler," I finally told her.

"I did not ignore him. I did not see him in the first place," she answered honestly, "And he's not my prince Gajeel-san. He does not want Juvia. He clearly stated that."

"So you have finally bumped your head sprinkler?" I teased.

"Whatever Gajeel-san," she said in dismissal and annoyance, "Let's finish this job quickly and get ice cream."

"Gee hee."
