When Juvia goes and changes her look for the new year, she grabs the attention of Laxus who oddly starts to over time feel protective of this woman. But, of course, Juvia loves Gray and until Laxus can make any sense out of these feelings, he decides to help coach her in getting the man she wants. But what if soon, he starts to realize, she's what he wants? What if it's too late?

I just wanted to do an angsty backstory for Juvia. There will be an abundance of Gruvia, quite a bit of GaLe, a dash of NaLu, and if you're really good a tablespoon of Jerza. Lemons. You have been warned.

Nalu mating story. Natsu confronts Lucy about her being his mate.
