A/N: for wolfgirl-2014. Also, might seem like Juvia talks weird but I have only seen the English version and I know she says stuff in third person or something but I didn't want to weird it out. This is a girl x girl fanfic, just regular romance stuff. If you don't like gay stuff, sorry but I wrote this and please skip to the next chapter or something and enjoy.
I felt the heat on my skin disappear quickly as the rain pounds on my skin. I slowly lower my arms from their protective stance and open my eyes. My eyes blink slowly, taking in the sight in front of me. There was a beautiful woman with blue hair staring down at me with her hand outstretched.
"Are you alright?" She asks in a strangely calm voice.
"I am now, thank you." I stutter out. My town had been under attack from a dark guild and someone had thrown a fireball at me. It immediately started raining when I first started running and I couldn't see which way I was turning but I could heard the maniacal laughter behind me as I turned into a dead end.
"I must leave now, but please, get to safety." The woman says quickly and I smile at her. I run out of the alley way but not before seeing the unconscious body near the wall. As I run towards my apartment nearby, I notice the rain had seemed to let up a tiny bit.
It was a couple years until we saw each other again. I had just moved to Magnolia Town and was taking the boxes out of the car when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I quickly swivel around to come face to face with the blue haired woman.
"Hello, are you moving in here?" She asks me, a slight pink brushing her cheeks.
"Actually I am, its been a while since I've seen you, how are you?" I ramble out making her blush a tiny bit more.
"I am well. I saw you unpacking and I rushed over to see how you are doing." She says quickly.
"I'm doing awesome. Do you live around here?" I asked back.
"Oh, no I do not, I am heading to the Fairy Tail guild hall of right now though." I nod at her words. "Would you like to join me?"
"I would love too but I have to finish packing." I reply while grabbing a box. "Maybe another time though?"
"Of course!" She bursts out but immediately covers her mouth. "Sorry about that outburst."
"It is perfectly alright! I do it all the time!" I adjust the box to my hip and hold my hand out. "I'm (Name) by the way, see you around!" She slowly reaches her hand out and shakes my hand, cold encasing it.
"I'm Juvia, I hope to see you again also." She rushes down the street and takes a quick turn as I grab the box with my other hand again and head into my new home with a smile on my face.
-six months later-
"Okay, so what did Lucy do?" I ask Juvia. She licks her ice cream and her eyes go wide.
"That's the thing! She didn't get to do anything. She was about to call on one of her celestial spirits but Leo just came out of nowhere and used his magic and knocked the other guy out, right away!" She says, arms flailing.
"What?! That's so cool!" I yell back. Juvia and I had been hanging out ever since the day we saw each other again. We had instantly become the best of friends and she slowly became more and more excitable. I never did go to the guild. I liked to hang out with Juvia alone and the guild just never came up again. I did meet Gajeel though but that was a while ago. He was part of Raven Tail and came by with Juvia the next time she came to my house.
"It was, but Leo appearing scared Lucy and she fell over into the mud, it was hilarious." She said, licking her ice cream again. I giggled at the sight in my head. She told me a bunch of stories of all her guild friends and I had loved hearing so happy. Even though we were friends, I always felt something more for her and I loved when she talked. After a couple seconds of silence, I spoke.
"Juvia.." I say, the mood turning serious quickly.
"What is it, are you okay?" She asks me, scooting over to where I was.
"Yeah, it's just.. I have to tell you something." I say, setting my drink down.
"You can tell me anything, always." I nod.
"We have been friends for a while now and I love our friendship and I love you." She nods, listening intently. "But I think I love you in a different way." Her body stills and her pale face immediately reddens and her face tightens. Tears come to my eyes, thinking I might face rejection.
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to say that! I don't know-" She cuts me off.
"It's quite alright, I think I feel the same." She stands up and her body loosens. "May I kiss you?" I nod quickly and she smashes her lips onto mine. I quickly wrap my arms around her neck and pull her closer. After a minute or so, she pulls away, lips bruised and eyes wide.
"Was that alright, I have never done that before with anyone." She says.
"It was amazing, but I'm not done with you yet." I say pushing her down on the couch and climbing into her lap. "You okay?" She nods furiously and I smile as I kiss her again.
-one year later-
"Ugh." I groan as I roll over to turn off the alarm. I quickly hit it and I feel an arm pull me back.
"Juvia, I have to get up and so do you." She whimpers and I look back at her. Her hair is messy and her eyes droopy from sleep.
"But I'm tired and I'm not done cuddling with you, I love you too much to let you go." She wraps her leg around mine and tightens her arm.
"You have to go the guild hall, you have that job with your friends and I have to get to the store." She sighs and let's me go. I get up and walk to her side, leaning down and kissing her cheek. "It's okay Juvia, if you end up running late, I put the ice cream cake in the freezer for Gray, I know he likes ice obviously, I put happy birthday on it also." She's been fascinated with Gray, she has found an amazing friend with him but Juvia probably came off a bit clingy I guess. Gajeel has talked about it to me but I love the attention from Juvia. To have someone who always wants to be with you and to love and support you all the time is amazing!
"I will see you later though, right?" She asks.
"Of course babe, want me to bring you anything?" She nods from her spot. "Okay, I will bring some blueberry stuff." I pull on my pants and head into the bathroom. When I come out to leave, Juvia is getting dressed.
"See you later (Name)." She says, giving me a kiss as she puts her hat on.
"Bye, stay safe or I will hit someone." She giggles.
"Of course I will, bye!" She says as I walk out the door to my bakery. I opened my store in Magnolia and it has been pretty successful so far. The best part, I have met Erza but she doesn't know my connections yet. She likes the strawberry cake so that's good. I'm supposed to meet the guild tomorrow, because I finally had the courage to bring it up and Juvia said yes so it will be really exciting.
"Hey (Name)!" I hear my name called and I turn my head to come face to face with Gajeel and a cat.
"Hey Gajeel, long time no see. Who's your friend?" I ask, giving a small wave.
"This is Pantherlily, he's an exceed." He says, gesturing to the cat.
"Hello Ms. (Last Name)." I wave back, remembering Juvia talk about Happy and Carla.
"Hello there Pantherlily, call me (Name)." He nods at me and jumps on Gajeel's shoulders.
"You guys want to come in?" I ask, waving my hand towards the bakery across the street.
"Not today, it's Gray's birthday and we have to be there. Some other day though?" He replies.
"Of course, tell Juvia I say hi. See you later!" I smile and walk across the street toward the bakery. I turn on the lights as soon as I walk in and I start to head to work. After a while, I hear the bell above the door ring and I glance up.
"Hey Erza." I say and I wipe my hands on my apron.
"Hello, do you have my order?" She asks, smile on her face.
"Always, here you go." I grab the small white box from the opposite counter and pass it to her.
"(Name)." She asks.
"Yeah?" I reply as I wash my hands to go back to cooking.
"Why were you talking to Gajeel?" She asks and I giggle a bit.
"Oh, I knew them from a while ago, he saw me and I said hi and introduced me to Pantherlily." I say.
"Alright then. I was just curious, sorry for the bother." She goes to walk out the door.
"It's no problem at all, oh wait." I quickly grab the brown bag. "Can you give this to Juvia Lockser?"
"Juvia?" She asks and grabs the bag slowly.
"Yeah, she knows where it's from. Thank you!" I yell as I run back into the kitchen to grab the pastries from the oven. I hear the bell above the door ring and the soft sound of the door close soon after.
~Juvia P.O.V.~
"Gray!" I yell as I walk into the guild hall. I hear a small grown but think nothing of it as I put the box down.
"What is it Juvia?" He asks me as he swivels around in his chair.
"I got you a birthday cake!" I reply, opening the top. Some of the others face pales as they remember the last time Juvia cooked.
"Is it good?" He asks, inspecting the cake.
"Of course it is!" He swipes some frosting of the side and sticks it into his mouth. His eyes go wide and he gets another piece of frosting.
"That's actually really good, did you make this?" He asks and some of the other guild members grab a slice. I shake my head. "Well, good job for whoever did. This is custom made right?"
"Yes! Only the best for my Gray!" I say and hug him. A couple minutes pass before Gajeel walks in.
"Juvia, I saw your friend earlier, she says hi." He says and sits down.
"Thank you Gajeel!" I reply as I sit down next to Gray.
"Other friend?" Natsu asks from a table nearby.
"Yeah, I have other friends besides the guild." I look back around when Erza walks up to me out of nowhere with a brown bag.
"This is yours, from (Name), the baker." She puts the brown bag softly in front of me.
"Thank you for bringing this, she owed me." I say and Erza looks at me in confusion. "I will explain tomorrow but we have to celebrate Gray today." Erza quickly throws her attention on Gray and he looks scared because it looks like Erza is going in for a hug. I giggle as I open up the brown bag and take out the blueberry cupcake.
After a day of celebrating Gray, we finally all disperse to leave.
"Goodbye Juvia, thanks for the cake!" Gray yells and throws me a smile. I smile and wave back at him and start walking home, ready to see (Name).
~Your P.O.V.~
"(Name)?" I hear Juvia say from the hall.
"I'm in the living room!" I yell back. She comes up behind me and wraps her arms around my neck, kissing my head. Blue hair clouds my vision and I giggle loudly.
"Are you ready to meet the guild tomorrow?" She asks and I nod.
"Of course I am, I'm really excited to meet Gray and see Erza's face when she realizes we're dating." I say and she comes around the couch, and I drop my book.
"I'm sure you are." Juvia replies.
"How was Gray's birthday?" She lays down on top of me, her legs going on either side of mine.
"It was good, he loved the cake." She says, laying her head on my chest.
"I'm good, conversation for tomorrow. I will come over after I close the shop." I give her a soft kiss and she kisses back. As it gets more heated, I quickly move us to the bedroom, us laughing all the way.
I wake up slowly, light filtering into the room. I nudge Juvia.
"Come on, we have to get up. You have the guild hall and I have the store." She latches her hand onto my side.
"It's okay if we're a little late, I mean, it's your store and all." She says looking into my eyes. All of my rational thought leaves when I look into her eyes.
"I can be a little late." I say as I get up and head into the bathroom, looking back at Juvia and beckoning her. When we get out of the shower, it's already 10. We quickly change and exit the apartment.
"I'm off to work, see you tonight." I say and give her a quick kiss.
"Okay, I have to head back to my dorm to get a clean change of clothes for later. Goodbye." She says and we part ways, smile on our faces.
~Juvia's P.O.V.~
I've been at the guild hall for a while, waiting for 6 to roll around, when (Name) gets off of work when Gray walks in.
"Gray! How are you today?" I shoot out of my chair towards him.
"I'm fine, how are you Juvia?" He asks.
"I'm wonderful today, more since you are here." I say and hug him tightly. I hear Lucy sigh from somewhere in the hall.
"I have a surprise for everyone later also." I say and Natsu perks up.
"A surprise?" He asks intrigued.
"Yeah, my friend is coming and you can meet her." I reply excitedly as I grab Gray's arm and head to the job board. We all hang out and talk for a bit until I notice it's 6, she should be closing up by now.
"Gray! I'm so excited and I love you so your gonna love her!" I say and he cringes. "Something wrong?"
"Listen, Juvia. I have to talk to you. I meant to earlier but I can finally do it." I look intently at him. "I don't, like, you." My eyes filled with tears.
"What? You, don't, like me?" I stutter out.
"It's more complicated than that." He tries to explain.
"It's not complicated, I just thought you liked me too." Tears roll down my face and I turn to run out the hall. I run down the path and I look back and run into something soft.
"Juvia? Oh my god, are you okay?" I look up through my tears and see (Name) standing over me, looking like she is going to kill someone.
"Gray says he doesn't like me." I say as I fall into her arms. I then hear a laugh and see she's laughing.
"It's not funny, I'm heartbroken." I say quickly, backing out of her arms.
"No, I think you misunderstood him, let's go inside." She says and she reaches her hand out. I nod and grab her hand and we walk inside.
~Your P.O.V.~
"Gray!" I yell and I see a guy with black hair look at me with wide eyes.
"That's me, is Juvia okay?" He asks.
"She's fine but you need to explain what you meant when you don't like her." I say and he looks at her.
"Juvia, when I said I didn't like you," Juvia lets out a loud sob, "I meant I didn't like you romantically, I know you do but-" I cut him off.
"She doesn't like you romantically." I say and Juvia immediately calms down.
"Yeah she does, she always says I love you to me and stuff. I assumed she liked me like that." I let out a laugh and turn to Juvia.
"You okay rain woman? No need to cry." I say.
"I'm okay, thank you. Sorry Gray, I thought you meant you didn't like me at all, like you hated me." He reaches out his hands.
"No I never meant that. You're okay though right?" He asks.
"I'm fine, better that (Name) is here." She says.
"(Name)?" Erza pops out of nowhere and looks at me.
"Hey Erza! What's up?" I ask.
"Nothing at all but are you the friend Juvia was talking about?" She asks.
"I am I guess. I'm (Name), Juvia's girlfriend." Their faces go blank as Juvia kisses my cheek and lays her head on my shoulder.
"Hey (Name)!" A rough voice yells and I look over to see Gajeel.
"Hey Gajeel." I say.
"How's the missus?" He asks, glancing at Juvia who's eyes are still a little red from crying.
"Better now, but we should meet everyone else." I look at Juvia and she nods, wiping her eyes.
"Wait, so Juvia wasn't in love with me?" Gray asks.
"Of course not, you are her best friend and she really cares for you." I say and he nods.
"That's better than breaking her heart forever though." He says.
"Yeah. Let's go." Juvia pulls my hand to the other side of the room where everyone else was.
"How long have you guys been going out?" Lucy asks.
"About a year, it's been good." Juvia replies and I give her a quick kiss. As the night comes to an end, we say our goodbyes, Juvias hand in mine as we walk down the street.
"Love you Rain Woman." I say.
"Love you too sweetie."
