Hello! This is my first time writing a Fairy Tail story! After years of reading them, I've decided that it was time for me to try to write one. Fairy Tail is one of my favorite animes! It was my first action anime also. I love Nalu and Gruvia. However, with this story, I wanted to explore the Gruvia ship and other Juvia ships. Other than Gruvia, I love Navia and Lavia, if that's what you call the Juvia x Laxus ship. I'll hope you will enjoy this chapter! Please drop a review! I love to hear what you all think! See ya!

She placed her hand on her forehead in an attempt to ease her oncoming headache. She laid back on her baby blue staring at the ceiling. A huff came through her nose as she thought back to what happened moments ago. She put both hands over her face and muffled a frustrated scream.

"Why can't they just understand Juvia?" she whispered to herself. She turned to her mini nightstand and grabbed her flip phone. Juvia let out a sigh of disappointment when she rolled her phone around to looked at it. She became disgusted and opened it up. She pressed and held down four until her phone beeped. She placed it to her ear.

"Wha' do ya want now, Raindrop?"

"Gajeel-kun, is Juvia unworthy?" she asked as her voice quivered. Water welled up in her eyes. She closed her eyes and sighed.

"Why are ya askin' when ya already know the answer? Did ya folks say sum' again?" he growled as he finished his last sentence. Juvia softly giggled and wiped the tears dripping from her cheeks.

"Yes, they did. They banned Juvia from the swim team. They told Juvia it was a waste of time and Juvia was not a talented swimmer, to begin with." Juvia whimpered and hiccupped. More tears copulated in her eyes and more began to travel down her face.

"Aye, stop yer' crying! Yer know that isn't true! Yer the fastest swimmer on the team. I don't know why yer ever listening to them in the first place!"

"They are Juvia's parents! Juvia can not not listen to them! Juvia does not have a choice when it comes to them!"

"Oi, oi! Okay, now stop sobbin'!"

"Juvia can not! She's too upset!" She cried into her phone. With her forearm, she tried wiping the tears that lept escaping her eyes. Her head began pounding against her skull when the ball in her throat became painful. Her hiccups turned into short quick breaths as she began to feel overwhelming anxiousness. Her flip phone slid from her hand as she crawled into a ball.

"Raindrop?! Raindrop?! What's going on with you? Are you having another panic attack," he was answered with her short bursts of breath. Her chest started to squeeze her uncomfortably as her panic attack continued. "Listen to me! Drip drop, drip drop." Gajeel's panicked voice broke into her ears. He repeated that phrase multiple times. She heard his words and the image of rain falling down in a forest came to her mind. Her breathing commenced at a slower pace into slower huffs.

"Are yer alright?" she caught her breath and grabbed her phone. She heard it to her ear for a few moments.

"No, Juvia is not alright. She is in so much pain. She wishes she were dead."
