Hi Everybody! First of all I wanted to say thank you to all of my readers! You really motivate me to keep writing!
And a special thank you to ceruleanscarlet and Snowdrop Nightingale! You guys really pushed me to keep updating and now I can say with a big smile, WE MADE IT TO TEN CHAPTERS! You guys were here from day one almost, so thank you!
ALSO I HAVE A LITTLE GAME IN MIND! I want you to try to guess who was in their house and comment who you think it was. At the end when the person is revealed the people who guessed correctly get to make requests that I will put into my story!
Much love, JuviaJLockser
I don't own Fairy Tail!
Gray P.O.V
"Was there any sign of forced entry?" The police officers critical gaze was on me. Though I couldn't help but look down at his mustache, it reminded me of a caterpillar. I had found myself staring at it randomly before I caught myself, only to do it all over again.
It was a vicious cycle...
"Well, my door was hanging open, so yeah. Its not like they used a key." I couldn't help the sarcasm that dripped from my words.
"Yes, of course. I believe that's all of the information we need. We will keep you updated with any new findings." With that he tipped his hat towards me and walked towards his car.
"Geez Juves, did you really need to call the police? We could have handled this better than them." Juvia was sitting on the porch on a swinging bench with a cup of hot coco as she waited for me to finish with the officer.
"Yes, Gray! What if we had needed their assistance? We don't know who was in there today!"
"Well, their was nothing stolen so I got zilch on what I think they were looking for."
"You sure it wasn't Natsu or one of our friends?"
"Yep, Natsu has a key. They all do. The door was opened by force, the hinges are bent. Not to mention I called everybody just to check. None of them were here today." I ran a tired hand threw my hair as I looked at her.
"Come here Gray." She held her hands out for me and with a sigh I grabbed them and let her pull me on the bench next to her. She laid her head on my shoulder and held my hand tightly in hers.
"Please don't stress baby, we're both fine and whoever was here didn't hurt anything but our door. Right?"
"Yeah I know, but what if you had been home?"
"I wasn't. Don't think about the what if's, their endless."
"Yeah, I guess so."
"Come on lets go to bed. Its been a long day."
"Yeah, and a shower sounds nice right about now. Would you wanna join me? We might just make a another part of our family?"
"Oh really?"
"Mm Hmm."
"Okay." She sent a sly grin up at me as I stood up. We both laughed when I picked her up by her waist and she wrapped her legs around my waist.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
But what we didn't know was that soon there would be no laughter in our house...
Only the pangs of sadness and silence that follow tragedy...
Unknown P.O.V
"No one was home, eh?"
"Yes sir."
"Well, I suppose this will stand as a warning then."
"Yes, the door was busted open."
"Good. I want them to know we were there. I want them to jump at the slightest movement that comes from the darkness. I want them to fear our arrival. Because we're coming, and there's no stopping us. I will get my revenge Fullbuster! Just you wait, your happily ever after is about to be crushed..."
His mechanical laugh was the only thing that could be heard in the frigid silence following his speech.
Juvia P.O.V
*ring ring* *ring ri-*
"Hello?" My voice was groggy and my eyes squinted against the harsh light that the phone was giving off.
"JUVIAAAA!"
"JEEZ LUCY! LOWER THE VOLUME!"
"I'm sorry but, but, but!"
"BUT WHAT!?"
"COULD YOU BOTH STOP YELLING?!" Gray lifted his head up from the pillow and glared at both the phone and me.
"I'm sorry BUT MIRA IS IN LABOR!"
"WHAT!?" Both Gray and I sat up together as I put Lucy on speaker.
"Mira went into labor, she's already almost all the way dilated. Hurry, Natsu and I just found out from Laxus and he told us to call you. She's crying and she wants you to be in there with her Juvia, so HURRY UP AND GET TO THE HOSPIATL! ROOM NUMBER 232 IN THE MATERNITY WARD!" With that Lucy clicked off the phone and Gray and I both scrambled out of bed in a rush to get dressed.
We brushed our teeth, put a pair of clothes on, and rushed out the door.
No time to waste, there was a baby on the way!
"232, 232, 232, 232, 232!" Finally I came to a stop at room number 232 with Gray by my side.
"Okay, go on, I'll sit with Natsu and everybody else in the waiting room."
"Yeah okay." I gave him a quick kiss on the lips before walking into Mira's room. As I stepped in I noticed the many machines that were hooked up to her as well as the people.
Laxus, Lucy, and Erza were in the room with her.
"Juvia!" Lucy came over and pulled me in for a tight hug. "She's almost fully dilated, the doctor said she'll start pushing within the next thirty minutes."
"Glad I got here in time."
"Hey Juvia." Erza pulled me in for a spine breaking hug that left me gasping for air. As I finally began to breathe normally I looked over and saw Laxus holding Mira's hand as he watched her with a worried face.
"He hasn't left her side since she got here. Not even to say hi to any of us. He really loves her." Lucy stood by my side as we both just looked at them. "Go on, she's been waiting for you." With timid steps I made my way over to Mira's hospital bed.
"Mira?" She slowly opened her eyes and gazed at me for a few moments.
"Juvia?"
"Yeah." I smiled at her. She was obviously woozy from the medication the doctor had given her.
"Oh, good. Your here. I told the doctor and Laxus I wouldn't start without you. They kept badgering me but I told them to suck it because I needed you to be here. Remember when we were talking about babies? You were talking to the baby and you told them that they had you wrapped around their little finger? Well it really touched me knowing that you loved my baby. I want you to be their godmother. Your an amazing friend Juvia, you were there for me these last couple months. When I was hormonal and I called you in the middle of the night, you never got angry at me. Instead you listened to me for hours and invited me over. You did whatever you could to make me happy, even when I asked you to make it rain so that I could stare out the window and sulk. Juvia your one of the best friends I have ever had. Your like my sister. And I want you to help me and Laxus name this baby." By the end of her speech there wasn't a dry eye in that room.
"Of course Mira. I love you so much, and that baby. I would love nothing more than to be their godmother and help name them." I held her hands as I gave her a watery smile.
The doctor walked in with a clipboard and she analyzed the room with cold eyes.
"My name is Dr. Porlyusica and I will be delivering your baby along with my nurse Kinana. Mrs. Dreyar its time to start pushing."
"Okay." She looked scared but both Laxus and I grabbed one of her hands and gave her a smile to reassure her.
And she began to push...
"That's it! One more Mira!" I gave her hand a squeeze as I looked down at her.
"NO SHUT UP! I CANT! YOU SAID ONE MORE TEN MINUTES AGO!"
"Come on babe, don't give up. PUSH!" Laxus had been supportive through the whole thing, even when Mira had yelled at him. She was scary when she was angry...
"Mira come you can do this. You'll meet your baby real soon, you just have to get past this final push!"
"Your right, your right..." She started breathing heavily before on the doctors accord, she gave one final push.
A baby's cry pierced the air.
I looked over my shoulder at the doctor who was holding the baby and my heart stopped in my chest.
She was beautiful. Just like her mother.
My goddaughter...
