Gray P.O.V
In life there are many things that are the big game changers.
For me it was meeting Natsu and everyone else.
It was my mom's death.
My dad remarrying.
Going to military school.
Marrying Juvia.
And now... Becoming a father.
"Your pregnant?" My voice shook as I repeated her earlier spoken words. She simply nodded in confirmation with a small smile gracing her lips.
I blinked my eyes multiple times before a loud laughter flew out from my lips and I reached forward quickly and pulled her tightly against me, with my face in the crook of her neck. She wrapped her arms around me and began to softly cry. After a few more moments I pulled back and held her face in my hands as I gazed into her eyes with a watery vision.
"Thank you. Thank you! I love you so much!" We both started to laugh as we cried before we embraced once again
1:33 am
For me the middle of the night is when my brain decides to not turn off. I can lay here, just like now, for hours simply lost in though, whishing and praying for sleep. Though today, I don't want to sleep.
I don't want to close my eyes, for the fear that this was all a dream.
As I continued to gaze into nothingness I shifted my eyes once again towards Juvia's peaceful, slumbering face. I couldn't help the smile that grew on my lips as my eyes traveled towards her stomach where her hands laid, cradling our baby.
I slowly moved onto my side and faced her as I moved my left hand and laid it on her stomach over her fingers. I let out a small, quiet, breathless laugh as once again reality hit me.
I was gonna be a dad.
A dad!
A better one than I ever had. Or Juvia.
I would love my baby, boy or girl, no matter what.
They would be my whole world, and I would love them and Juvia more than my own life.
I would make Juvia proud.
"Gray, what are you doing up?" I shifted my gaze back toward Juvia's face to see her tired eyes searching mine for answers.
"Couldn't sleep."
"Why?"
"I was thinking about the baby." At my response she shifted in the bed and moved closer to me as her face became more awake.
"What about our baby?"
"If it's a girl or a boy. What will they look like. What they will be like. What we'll name them. Everything." As I spoke she stared into my eyes with her deep blue depths and I felt connected to her more now, than ever before.
"I love you Gray."
"I love you Juves. And I love our little bean."
"Bean?" She let out a giggle as she raised an eyebrow in question.
"Yeah, bean." I gave her a half smile before I pulled her closer and cuddled her against my chest.
"Bean. Our Bean." I only grinned in answer as I began to rub her back.
"Mommy and daddy love you very much, Baby Bean." She whispered into the still, calm air as we both closed our eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Mommy, daddy, and Bean.
Dream
Here I stood in a field, with the wind blowing and no human for miles to be seen. I looked around and only saw grass. A sudden fear began to creep up on me as the skies darkened.
"Daddy?"
My heart leapt out of my chest at the sound of a little voice twinkling in the wind.
"Daddy?" The voice called me again, louder this time and with a frantic whip of my head I looked in all direction, helpless.
"Daddy!?" The voice sounded breathless as their voice raised higher, once again. My heart continued to beat as I started running in a random direction, the direction that in the far distance I could see what appeared to be a forest.
"DADDY!" The voice's scream cracked like a whip in the cold, harsh winds of silence, terror coloring their tone.
"WHERE ARE YOU?!" My voice carried throughout the air and silence followed my call. The wind became stranger and my hair began beating in the wind.
"WHERE ARE YOU BABY? TELL ME!" Tears began to pour from my eyes and my hands fisted into my hair as I stopped in my tracks and turned in a circle before spotting an area in the opposite direction of the forest that was dark, and rain was pouring down. My heart gave a tug at the sight of it and I ran towards it without stopping. Just as I came to a stop before it a chill swept over my whole body.
"Daddy..." The voice came from behind me, nothing more than a whisper in my ear. My breathing faltered and I slowly began turning towards the source of it.
"NO DADDY! Don't turn your back to the rain, the rain will kill her!" I froze as my body began to shake from the tears that were pouring from my eyes, just as much as from the shivers racking my body.
"Please, baby, where are you?!"
"Find me daddy, and save her. Save me."
"Tell me! Tell me what's wrong."
"Beware, daddy. Beware of the rain."
The wind suddenly stopped and dread spread through me as I swiftly turned to where the voice had once been.
"BABY! WHERE ARE YOU!"
"I love you daddy, please protect us. And remember never turn your back to the rain. Never." I turned to where the voice was coming from, from where the rain had been and came face to face with sunshine. Beautiful, sparkling, golden sunshine.
"I love you too..." I whispered and as warmth spread over my whole body and replaced the cold ache in my bones, I knew the voice had heard and I knew that they were safe.
