Satisfied and sore Juvia woke entangled in the muscular limbs of Laxus, she hadn't planned on staying the night, but things had lasted all night leaving her too exhausted to walk home. Not, that she particularly wanted to leave, there was something irresistible about being with someone who treated her like a real woman, worshipping every inch of her body. Juvia nestled against his muscular chest, trailing her fingertips down the ridges of his abs. Laxus stretched and draped an arm over her waist, "Already awake and looking for more? I guess I didn't do my job right if you still aren't satisfied."

Juvia giggled, "I can't handle any more, Laxus. My body is like jelly."

He maneuvered and rolled on top of her, caging her to the mattress. "I don't know, I could go for a snack and you're looking awfully tasty." His smile was wide and wicked as he leaned down to kiss her, their lips barely grazed as a loud knock cut through the moment like a hot knife through butter. "Just ignore it." he commanded.

A moment later another louder knock rattled the door in it's frame, Laxus cursed under his breath and jumped from the bed to rifle through his drawers. Pulling out pants he quickly dressed as another knock sounded, "Stay here, I will get rid of them." he growled looking angry as he headed to the living room, leaving Juvia in his bed.

"What do you want?!" she heard him snap at the unexpected visitor. From there the voices were muddled, but there was clearly a heated back and forth before the door slammed and Laxus returned.

"I'm needed at the guild," he told her, finding a shirt to wear, "I'm going to head out before anyone else comes looking for me, take your time getting ready and lock up when you leave," he leaned in kissing her quickly. "This isn't over," he grinned, "I'll be calling you soon." He winked and turned heading back up the hall, the door slamming behind him seconds later.

Juvia lay back on the bed and hugged the thick black blanket to her naked body, she was finally glad to have a moment to gather her thoughts, the last twelve hours had been a flurry of excitement. A sea of thoughts swam in her head, she couldn't believe she had spent the entire night in the throes of passion with the sexy blond dragon slayer. His appetite for sex was near insatiable levels, she had barely managed to keep up with him. As tired as she was Juvia figured she shouldn't hang around his house without him any longer than necessary in case anyone else were to come looking for him, Throwing the blanket from her legs she climbed from the bed and looked around the room. Laxus kept things tidy, everything seemed to have a place, so Juvia turned an fluffed the blanket back into place thinking he may not like it if she left the place a mess.

From there, she went on a hunt for her clothing. Her panties were in the bathroom and the rest of her outfit was tossed about the living room. She hoped that whoever had been at the door didn't happen to see her garments scattered across the floor. Pulling on her disheveled clothes, she did the best she could to smooth the wrinkled and finger combed her hair before heading home, locking the door behind her.


It was well into the afternoon before she decided to finally go to the guild. The commotion inside was a stark contrast to the quiet morning she had enjoyed so far. She spotted Levy and Gajeel at their usual table and decided to join them.


"Hey Rain Woman," Gajeel greeted, "I started to wonder if you'd ever turn up, apparently when you want to relax you take it seriously." That's right, she had told him yesterday that she was going home for a long bath, but what she had done instead was a different kind of release.

"I just wanted some alone time," she lied with a smile.

Gajeel arched an eyebrow and narrowed his eyes, "Hey shrimp, why don't you grab the Rain Woman a drink, she looks awfully thirsty," he said, clearly not asking at all.

"Okay..." Levy said sounding unsure ash she headed to the bar.

"Alone time?" he questioned, "is that the reason you reek of Laxus?"

"Shhhh!!" she hissed shooting a glare at her friend. "Relax, I'm not outing your little secret," he laughed, "But any dragon slayer would smell him on you from a mile away, so unless you want poor Wendy to ask you some uncomfortable questions I'd invest in something to neutralize the smell."

"Fine," Juvia blushed.

"And you might want to tell Loverboy to stop staring," he grinned.

Juvia glanced over her shoulder to see Laxus watching with a playful smirk on his face. She blushed and turned back to Gajeel, "Okay, no more talking about this." she warned as Levy returned with her tea.

"Here you go, Earl Grey, just the way you like it," she said gently placing the cup in front of her.

"Thank you, Levy," Juvia said politely, carefully taking a sup of the hot tea.

"So, what did you do to relax?" Levy asked cheerfully, nearly causing Juvia to choke on her tea.

"Oh, um," she faltered, "Just laid in bed, nothing special."

"That actually sounds amazing," Levy sighed, "I could use a lazy day."

Gajeel wore a knowing expression on his face and Juvia shot him a look of warning. The wide grin on his lips said it all, he was teasing her to get a reaction and it was working. Levy continued talking, "We were looking at a job in Hargeon, do you want in? If we leave tonight, we could be back by Monday."

She thought about it, a three-day mission could be a nice way to kill some time and reflect on what was happening with Laxus. "Sure," she nodded, "When do we leave?"

"You should probably shower first," Gajeel pestered, "meet us at the train station in an hour." Juvia frowned at him, his jokes were going to get old real fast.


By the time they returned from the job Gajeel had teased Juvia to the point that she could slap him. She hadn't gotten the time to think things over and instead she was more confused about things than ever. "How was the mission," Mira asked cheerfully from the bar as the trio entered the guild hall.

Juvia huffed, rolling her eyes and dropping her bag on the floor before slumping in her seat. Gejeel roared laughing and Levy shrugged saying, "I don't know what is going on with these two because no one will tell me but it made the trip next to impossible to deal with."

"Ameonna just needs to lighten up," he said nudging her with his elbow, "she didn't used to be this uptight."

"Enough!" Juvia snapped, grabbing her bag, rushing out the door, not saying goodbye to anyone as she stormed past. She had had enough of his teasing, this was part of the reason she hadn't wanted anyone to know about her tryst, she knew she would never hear the end of it if people found out.

Outside the guild she made a beeline for Fairy Hills, she wanted nothing more than to be alone with her thoughts and that was the only place she could see that working out. Moving swiftly through the streets she avoided making eye contact with anyone feeling like her frustration was radiating off of her. She didn't slow down until she had closed herself safely inside her dorm.

One long shower later she wrapped a towel around her body and sighed, she had been so frustrated she was surprised she had managed to keep the rain away. Her communication lacrima chimed in her bag and Juvia hurried to find it, shuffling items out of her way as she searched. One message waited for her when she recovered the device, and it was from Laxus.

What is your apartment number?

She typed back her answer and a tap came from her door a moment later. Juvia carefully opened the door, hiding her towel-wrapped body behind the door. There stood Laxus glancing down the hallway as he whispered, "Can I come in before someone finds me here?"

Juvia moved aside allowing Laxus into her living room, "What are you doing here?"

"I saw metal-head was back, so I came to if you wanted to finish what we had started the other day," he pulled her close. Juvia was reminded of her weekend with Gajeel's relentless teasing, clouds moved in over the sun blocking the light from the windows. "Whoa, Blue. That's quite a storm you have brewing, what did I do?"

She laid against his chest, "It wasn't you, you just reminded me of something else." She blew out a nervous breath, "Gajeel found out about us, I'm sorry."

"Why are you sorry, you're the one who wanted to keep things quiet, I don't care who knows." he shrugged.

Juvia's heart fluttered, he wasn't mad at her, thank goodness. "as long as you aren't angry," she said, hugging him tighter.

"Not angry at all," he ran his hands over the curve of her ass, "I have other things on my mind."

Juvia giggled, "We can't do that here, what if someone hears us?"

"Then I suggest you try to be quiet," he murmured in her ear before throwing her over his shoulder and setting off in search of her bed.
