It was late evening at the guild which immediately meant half the members were already three sheets to the wind and Cana was missing chunks of her day already in her memory. The bar was filled with laughter and shouting when there was a light twinkling sound that caught everyone's attention.
"Excuse me! Excuse me!" Juvia cried out, her cheeks bright pink, as she swayed on the bar stool she was standing on. "Juvia would like to say something!"
"You go girl!" Cana called out.
The more sober ones sweat-dropped at that as they wondered what the hell that was supposed to mean.
"Yes, yes," Juvia slurred, "thank you. Juvia would like to say that Gray-sama is wonderful!" everyone groaned at that. Juvia has said that every day since she had met Gray, it was nothing new. "Gray-sama is so kind and sweet and perfect. When Gray-sama found out a few months ago that Juvia was buying too expensive clothe and threads for her Gray-sama dolls, Gray-sama went shopping with Juvia. He compared all the prices for Juvia. He haggled on Juvia's behalf. He ensured Juvia would never be cheated again. Gray-sama had helped Juvia save a fortune!"
"And you're now going to buy us all a drink," Cana shouted out, "right?"
"No for Juvia has spent it all on a new portrait to memorialise Gray-sama's God-likeness!" Juvia's eyes sparkled as she clasped her hands beneath her chin. Cana instantly drooped with disappointment and everyone else groaned. When you see one Gray-sama portrait memorialising his God-likeness, you have seen them all. "So therefore Juvia is pleased to present – GRAY-SAMA!"
She then pulled off the cover over a gigantic frame. Immediately everyone's eyes bugged out at the sight of Juvia's newest painting.
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
A low whistling sound of the wind could be heard as a dust ball drifted pass everyone as they tried to soak in the horror of Juvia's new monstrosity.
It was Gray, shirtless, which was bad enough for the likes of Natsu (who was now gagging) but it was Gray, shirtless, in the most graphic way possible. Each and every muscle was well defined and looked as if you could grate cheese on. To make matters worse Gray's thigh muscles were bulging out as he rode on a unicorn, yes a unicorn, a great big sparkly one, on a pathway made of stars.
"….Pfft!" Gajeel snorted. "Gihihihihihihihihihii!" he chortled into his drink.
Natsu collapsed onto the ground and was rolling in hysterical laughter as was Happy, Cana Jet, Droy, and Bickslow. Freed choked and suffocated on his own laughter while Evergreen buried her face behind her fan.
Gray bashed his head against the table. Hard. And repeatedly.
"Erm…..it's…." Lucy valiantly fought against the urge to giggle, "is…very nice, Juvia," she managed to smile with false sincerity.
"Well you can't have it!" Juvia snapped as she held the portrait protectively to her chest. "Gray-sama and any form of Gray-sama belongs to Juvia not to you, Love Rival!"
"Where did you get such a monstrosity?" Gray croaked. "Who painted that?!"
"Why," Juvia beamed, revelling in Gray's attention despite it being negative, "Reedus-kun of course!"
Reedus suddenly had to duck behind his canvas and use his latest art piece to defend himself from pelting ice bullets.
