(A/N) Hey guys. So here's the fluff I promised. :3 Yeah, I hope you like it.
I gasped when I saw the necklace that I had been looking at from Oba Babasama's table. So Gray had been the one who had bought it… "I saw it and thought maybe you would like it, so I decided to get it."
"I love it!" I said, hugging him.
"I'm glad you do." He smiled at me and indicated towards the necklace. "Want me to put it on you?"
"Sure." I took off the necklace Erza gave me and put it on top of my bag so Gray could put to new one on me. I waited until he had clasped it around my neck before examining it in my hand. "It's perfect." I said, taking his hand and pulling him down to sit with me, absently noticing that his shirt was missing. "Uh, Gray, what happened to your shirt?"
"When the hell did that happen?!" he yelled as I laughed. I fell onto my back and stared up at the stars, while Gray remained sitting, looking down at me.
"What?"
"I don't know." He shrugged and lay beside me. "Just thinking I guess." I gazed at him curiously.
"About what?"
"You." He said with a smirk. I unsuccessfully tried to hide my blush, making him laugh and pull me closer. He wrapped his arms around me and I settled my head against his chest.
"What about me?" I asked timidly.
"Everything." He murmured in my ear.
"How specific." I muttered, jokingly rolling my eyes. He sighed and cleared his throat.
"You want me to be specific?" he asked slowly, once again drawing out his voice seductively.
""Kya!" I squealed, causing him to burst out laughing. "Shut up! Quit using that voice!"
"You know you like it." He said, using That Voice again. He kissed the top of my head slowly, lingering for a moment.
"You're creeping me out…" I muttered helplessly, trying to sound convincing. It was official; I stood absolutely no chance against him and That Voice.
"I don't think you mean that."
"I, just um-"
"Juvia…"
"Yes?"
"I can literally feel your face heating up." He said in his normal, equally sexy voice as he laughed.
"Wha-, it's just, ah you're-" I stuttered. "Don't use That Voice!" he continued laughing.
"Why? I thought you liked it."
"Er, under the circumstances, no."
"What circumstances?" he asked innocently.
"I don't know!" I yelled, giggling. "Just stop!"
"Too much for you?"
"Sure, that's it." I said, knowing fully well that if he said one more word to me in That Voice, my heart would explode from beating too quickly.
"I've found your weakness." He grinned widely.
"And I will eventually become immune to it." I mumbled, burying my face in his neck.
"I doubt that." I could sense his smirk even without looking at him. He began stroking my head softly, and I must have fallen asleep at some point, because when I woke up it was even darker outside and Gray was asleep beside me. The blanket he brought was draped over us as well. I leaned back slowly so I wouldn't wake him and tilted my head up to look at his face. He looked peaceful… I brought my hand up and gently traced the strong line of his jaw. His eyelids fluttered and I quickly moved my hand away.
"Juvia…" I froze as he whispered my name in a husky voice. "Are you awake?"
"Yeah." I whispered back.
"I'm sorry. You fell asleep and looked cold, so I got the blanket. You looked so peaceful, and I didn't want to wake you. I guess I fell asleep too." He said, letting go of me and sitting up. "Want me to walk you home now?" I sat silently for a moment.
"No…" I muttered.
He looked surprised but he smiled. "What, you want to stay in the tent?"
"Sure." I stood up and stretched while he began setting up the tent. I helped him finish setting it up and I grabbed my bag, putting Erza's necklace inside. I crawled into the tent, and Gray followed with the blanket. He laughed softly.
"What is it?"
"Never mind." He shook his head.
Suddenly I heard a continuous rustling noise that sounded like it was coming from a bush outside.
"Did you hear that?" I whispered.
"Hear what?"
"That rustling noise."
He listened for a moment, but the night had settled back into silence and the noise was gone. I continued to stare at the wall of the tent, wondering what it had been. It had probably just been an animal.
"It's probably nothing." He said, pulling me closer nonetheless. "Don't worry, you're safe here."
"Thanks." I felt a light blush spread across my face. "Goodnight Gray."
"Night Juvia."
Erza's pov
"Ow!"
"Shh, stop moving!"
"Sorry, but the branches keep scratching me! Ugh, can you see anything?"
"Not yet."
The blonde reached for the binoculars and I handed them to her to see if she could fix them. At this rate we'd never be able to spy on Gray and Juvia. I groaned inwardly. I swear, if he did anything to her…
"I tried to use them, but all I see is darkness." I explained in annoyance while glaring.
"Hey Erza…"
"What? Did you fix them?"
"Yeah, you didn't take the cover off the lenses." Lucy giggled. I put my hand over her mouth.
"They might hear you!"
"Sorry." She whispered as I removed my hand. "But how did you-"
"Now is not the time to laugh at my expense! Hand me the binoculars." She obliged and I peered through them, intent on finding out if Juvia was in need of any assistance.
"Erza! They're going to sleep! Together!" Mira's excited voice floated through the walkie talkie.
"Really?!" Lucy squealed, snatching the binoculars.
"Should I intervene?" I asked, glaring in the direction of the tent.
"No!" Mira and Lucy yelled. "This is good."
"Alright. Where is Levy?" I asked.
"Higher up in the tree. Hey Levy!" We heard a muffled reply. "She's ok, but she's climbing down right now."
"Good." I said. "They closed the tent, so there's nothing else to see. Let's go back to Lucy's house for the night. We may come back in the morning."
"I'll meet you there." Mira replied.
"Wait, my house?" Lucy asked.
"Is there a problem?" I asked, shooting Lucy a look.
"N-No! Of course not! Let's go! Aye!" she stuttered, scrambling out of the bush.
"Natsu's really rubbing off on Lucy." Mira said. I could practically picture Mira's smile right now. Her scary, matchmaking smile. Maybe I should just tell her about Jellal and I and get it over with…
(A/N) The more I write, the more fluff I end up writing. XD So Erza and Jellal have secretly been dating~ Things are getting interesting…to me at least. Please review and such, it'd make my day! :3 It may take me a little longer to update the next chapter since I've been kinda busy lately and could use a break. At least for the rest of the week. So hopefully the next chapter will be ready by Monday or Tuesday. We'll see I guess. :3 Thank you all so much! Until Then.
