On the airplane ride back it was a time of ignoring Gray. She put on her headphones that where plunged into her laptop and started working. Feeling his presence near by only fazed her a little when he would tap her on the arm to talk him. Waving him off so she could focus on what she was doing. He wasn't liking it one bit, and the look on her face told him so. What really pissed her off more was when he closed her laptop and took it when flight attendant came by with their meal. That had her growling at him and he thought she looked cute when she did it.

Leaving the airplane was no better either, she went ahead of him to grabbed her suite case off the rotating belt. Then went to get their travel transportation. Gray wasn't liking her attitude in the lest. Knew it was his doing on making her mad. When she was angry at him after awhile it died down. Maybe it's being egged on by hormones caused by her being pregnant. Her free range of doing everything is being taken away. There was no way he was going to allow her to do certain tasks.

"Miss here are your keys to the red sedan. If you head outside there is no waiting for the bus, it's in the row that is closer to the entrance over there."

"Thanks you much." Quickly taking the keys before Gray gets a hold of them. Putting them into her purse. Lifting up the handle of her suite case had her heading for the way out. He didn't want to make a scene inside and have a whole bunch of people stare at them. Once they were outside he will take over.

Her eyes scan the first row of cars and she found the van that wasn't to far off. Moving along the row and not paying any notice to the man behind her. Pressing the start up button to get the engine started and get the interior warming up. As soon as she got to the van and was about to open up the trunk it was taken from her. Gray touch the handle first and liften up the back and he put in his suit case. Then reaching for hers to put it in to, but she slap his hand away so she could do it herself. That was the last straw he was going to take from her. When the suit case was put in along with her laptop messenger bag. She was heading for the driver side to go meet Sting first then the hotel. Gray got in her way and blocked her going forward.

"I'll drive, give me the keys." Waving her hand in the air and shaking her head. It was a clear no he was receiving. That wasn't going to stop him, he moves towards her and she was backed up against the van. He puts his hands on either side of her head and lowers his down close to hers. "Give me the keys."

"No, I can drive."

"You are mad at me that is fine. I want you to calm down, not good for you at all."

"What do you know what is good for me or not. Drove to the airport on my own, I can do things Gray. I am not breakable don't treat me as such."

"Really yesterday tells of a different story."

"That was yesterday in the past, today is now. I will resume my task here in Cedar and you can stop taking over."

"I refuse to do that."

"Refuse all you want, I have the keys. There is nothing you can do about that." It was a challenge that he was willing to accept it. The last few hours of being ignore by her was ending. His hand sneaks into her purse as she was talking to him. Using that distraction given to grab the keys and jingling them in her view.

"See I did something about it. Now manger, please get in and buckle up."

"Gray why you son of..." Pressing her lips together with his fingers and waving a finger at her with his other hand. It was telling a child to behave or they will be punish. Mumbling the rest of her words along with something else he could only guess to what she was saying. He took her hand into his and walked around the the passenger side. There was a little tugging from her of trying to get her hand free. Gray open up the door for her and helped her in and put on the seat belt too. Stands there for a moment before taking over the wheel.

"I have said this before I am not trying to be mean or controlling. I can see how mad you are at me and I am sorry. It's best this way that I come along. What is the point of you doing all the work when it's my trailer."

"What is the point of me being here if I can't do my job Gray."

"How about this, we work together. Yeah you have helped me get jobs, do all the leg of work of meeting people. I sign what needs my signature for contracts. I read lines all the time and you do everything else. I probably don't know half of what you do. I see the hard work you do for me and you do go the extra mile. You love your job like I love acting. Can't we meet in the middle."

"Meet in the middle? I have unique way of doing my job and to give up a portion of it to you. It's the same of letting you keep the keys. I wanted you to keep your vacation, you have worked so hard all these months. The progress in making this move is amazing, and you have a sequel coming up too. If I can help make your life easier with what I do, then why do all of this."

"Amber, I see all that. If I am being extreme in taking over your tasks it's only because of the baby. This job is stressful and Mira has warn you to be careful. I will watch over you to make sure you stay sane."

"I will not go crazy. I am having a baby not turning into a different person."

"In way you are. This is the first time you have gotten mad at me and not spoken to me in hours. The other times you get mad and still talk to me. We need communication as actor and manger or this all fails."

"I am mad because this has happen and we were on a break. To have that ruin and seeing you at the airport got me going."

"I can understand that, but answer me this. You knew I would come right, after hearing it on the news. That is why you left so quickly and hopes that I stayed back."

"Partly yes, I had to leave in hurry. The sound of Sting voice had a lot of anxiousness and worried."

"We will fine out more when we get there. Ready?"

"Yeah, I am sorry for being a pain."

"You were justified and it's ok. I didn't make it easy for you either. Lets go!"

They talked all the way there to the location. Thinking of the possibles ways of why his trailer went up in flames. It was several years old, but in good condition. It wasn't like a house to have a wired short circuit, or leaving something on the burner. Maybe Sting will shine some light on it.

The reporters where all station all outside the gate. It was pretty common thing for them to do. They flash their cameras at the van when they saw who it was coming up to the gate. Gray rolled down his window to tell the guard to let them through. You hear shouts of Gray's name being called as well as Amber's. Reporters notice the change in seating and it wasn't the same. She would drive and he would be in the back seat. Now both of them where up in front with him driving now. Few of the reporters that have talked to Amber regarding his female conquests have heard she was pregnant. She wasn't a big name like Gray to find out who the father was, but she had her own charm that the reporters respected. Always professional, never yelling at them, or cutting them off in a interview. Giving them a few details to write a story at lest. Her pose and work ethic they admired. The times that an article was wrong Amber would talk to their chief to have it remove. Still she was firm but very calm about it all.

"Gray, how did the fire get started." A tall reported with brown hair asked him as he pushed his way through and got to the window. The guard had to step back from the disruption.

"No comment at this time guys. I only heard of it a short awhile ago. When we learn more my manger will give a formal statement."

"Gray, where were you when this took place,"

"Again no comment, please." The guard got in the reporters way and asked for his co-worker to open up the gate. The reporters wanted to rush in but they where stopped. They keep on clicking their camera's and yelling out to them.

"There is a lot out there and I see some familiar faces among the crowd Gray."

"I see that, can't give them anything new until we know more."

"Right, bizarre thing to occurred." They head for the trailers and see a lot of the crew standing around taking notice as well."

"I see Sting by Natsu trailer."

"Opps I forgot to give him a call when we touch down."

"No you called him on the tar mat."

"I did?"

"You must have baby brain." She frowns and thinks how simply it was not to remember what she did a half hour ago. Hearing about it from friends she knew that had kids or reading it in one of her books. Now it was her turn and this will not be the only time.

"Oh wow, I remember the call now. I can't believe that I did that."

"Don't sweat it. It's natural during this time even after your pregnancy you could still retain."

"You been reading the books again."

"Yep, I have seen you pick up my novel that was on the table."

"I wanted to read the backing of it that is all."

"And you ended up ready the first chapter."

"It was all I could do when you had Juvia over." That was a not so pleasant day for her. She was ready to go out so they could have time alone and do whatever. Gray wanted her to stay in because it was pouring rain outside. It was two company and three a crowd. Amber could tell that Juiva didn't enjoy that time as well. They made friendly small talk, in the end Amber went to her room and stayed there. Using her laptop and headphones that she recently purchase to keep out the noise from hearing them. The rest of the day was spent watching Netflix and having a nap. Waking up later she notice a blanket was on her and her laptop was put on her dresser.

"If you want to read the series I have the novels."

"It intrigued me, and I wouldn't mind the first book to see how I like it."

"Fair enough."

Pulling up right next to Sting, Amber got out of the van first. It was forecast over with snow suppose to be falling down later. The cold air touched her face and she was missing the heat from the van.

"You beckon me to come back. What have you found out?"

"Not much Amber. The fire marshal has to do their investigation. When they figure out how the fire started they will let us know."

"Can't they do that now?"

"The trailer needs to be remove and taken over to a different place for them to examine it. The cops have do their c.s.i investigation as well."

"About the camera have you check the footage?" Gray got out of the van and went to stand next to her and asked his own question. This was very odd for him to be dealing with something this major. He wanted to know how it start on fire.

"I don't have any cameras in this area Gray. When we are done for the day the security officers take over and watch everything. I thought it wasn't necessary and hassle to put up. Do you really want a camera pointed at your privacy?"

"I think now should be a requirement."

Both of men bicker over the camera and Amber leaves the men to settle their argument and walks over to the trailer. It was a displeasing sight to see, the glass in the windows were all over on the ground for the fire fighters to douse out the flames. The roof was caved in looked like the metal fame melted because of heat from the flames. The door was on it's hinges and interior was all black. Not knowing if any of his things could be saved. Standing there had her remember of a few things she left inside too. "Oh no!" The first ultrasound picture she had taken was left on the table. Praying it wasn't turn to ash and by a small margin that it was intact.

Gray hold up his hand in front of Sting and turns to see what she was doing. Her voice could be heard from where they where. The trailer was about 30 feet from them. Sees her getting into the trailer. "Amber stop don't go inside." The pursuit of the picture had her not listening to him. Struggling to climb up because the stairs where gone. Able to get inside had her searching right away. "Why is she like this?"

"Women are strange individuals that we can't know what they are thinking 24/7."

"Tell me about it Sting with her expecting she is all over the map." Gray runs over to the trailer and Sting gets stop by one of his crews member. Slowing down as his long legs gives him no trouble at all to get inside. What stops him from moving on more was hearing her cry. "Amber what is wrong?'

"The picture Gray." In her hands she finds a cripple piece of what was left of the ultrasound picture. Her small hands where covered in ash from climbing in and her pants suit was a mess too. What got him worried again was she shaking while holding the picture.

"Okay lets get you out of her and to the hotel. I am taking over now."

Wiping a hand across her eyes to remove her tears made her face have a strip of black. It would be funny if it was a different day and she could laugh at herself. Sniffling she holds the picture close to her chest.

"Amber we can get a other one done. I have mine as well for you to look at."

"Gray it's the first picture, it can't be replaced. I was going to put into a frame and keep it here in the trailer. Now the trailer is gone and so is the picture, and the books, and everything else."

"Hey hey enough, take it easy. The books can be replace, I can buy them all new. I can get a new trailer as well. Now settle down Amber."

She looks up at him and a tears fall from her eyes and they were black as they made streaks down her face. When she found the picture all crunch up and on the floor. A bad feeling washed over her. The last place she had it, it was on the table behind her. The flames touched everything inside, nothing can be saved. Somehow a piece of her paper of her baby manage to get on to the floor. When things burn they are left in the same spot. Her wild guess is that someone was in the trailer before it was on fire. The question is who and why?

With a finger he wipes at the black streaks, it would look funny if she went outside like this. "This is not what you need. Come on, out now." He wanted to make her feel better, to take this whole troubling situation out of her grasp. A new visitor was looking inside and seeing how close they were together. The first time she saw them together like this was when Amber sprain her foot. Smiling big and coughing to get there attention.

"Lucy why are you here?"

"Hello Gray, Amber. Heard what happen and wanted to know if there was something I could do to help. Sting said that Amber was coming back not you."

"Continue my break and not coming back. Yeah, I choose the latter." He leads Amber over to the door. She was in sullen mood and it was best to get her out of this. Takes a step down first he turns and lifts Amber out of the trailer and slowly brought her down. Lucy was watching very carefully. There was a pull between them she knows it. Have they realize it themselves yet. Lucy quickly found a answer to that. The way Gray was holding her friend in his arms right in front of her. It felt they were close, but how close?

"Lucy can Amber go into your trailer?"

"Yes of course she is always welcome."

"Great she can't have this stress." He puts a hand on her cheek and wipes more tears from her eyes. "Let me take over?"

Nodding her head she felt drain in a sort of amount of time and wanting to be alone for awhile. "Lucy will take care of you. Get your mind off this." Takes the picture from her hands and puts it into the pocket. All three of them walk over to the Lucy second place to call home or third place since they have hotel rooms too. The door was open up by Lucy and she motions from them to come inside. When he gets Amber in, he takes her over to the couch and gets her sitting down. "Can you make her cup of hot chocolate. It will help her to settle."

"Sure thing, two cups coming up." The kitchen area gets preoccupy by Lucy heating up the water in a kettle and grabbing some cookies for them to have too.

"I'll be back stay here."

"Gray the picture."

"I know, try not to worry." Lucy watches him give her a kiss on the forehead and head out of the trailer. Would it be wrong for her to question Amber or giving her a nudge to be with someone. In all the time she has known her. A man was never by her side, maybe it was best to ask her why now. That way she can help her friend find love and be in love with the playboy.

"Do you want marshmallows in your hot coca."

"Yes Lucy."

"A handful of little ones will be a added as a extra treat."

"Can't wait."

Bringing over two cups and hands one to Amber before seating herself down beside her. With two hands on her cup she brings it up to her lips to taste. "Mmm good Lucy."

"Glad you like it."

"It is winter now or soon to be so."

"Winter solstice and Christmas is right around the corner." How is she going start asking her, what was the best way to do this. Biting her lip and thinking on the first question.

Taking other sip of her hot coca had calm her down a little. Sometimes it's surprising how well Gray was getting to know her. Sometimes having chocolate will do the trick. He didn't want her to have it but it was better then coffee or smoking. Having those two things right now was like a drug and the withdrawals were getting better.

"Amber are you dating anyone or have a eye on someone?"

Spiting out her drink at the forthcoming question. "That is out of the blue."

"No not really, curious to know."

"My life isn't that fascinating Lucy."

"Oh I think it is. I have the prefect person for you."

"Don't want to be set up and I plan on being single. Remember I have no desire to be with a man and the baby is going to fill that for me."

"Babies are to be loved, but you need to be loved back."

"I will be, this one here." She rests a hand her stomach and smiles at Lucy. They have had this talk a few times already. What is there more to say on the subject.

"Yes, the baby will love you so much. A man can filled your heart in other ways. If you want more children are you going through this process again?"

"I don't know. I'll have to raise this one first to see."

"If you had someone in your life, you can have as many as you want."

"Lucy, kind of late to tell me I did this wrong. You know what I was doing."

"I agree with you fully, it's just that..."

"What?"

"Your so pretty and it's a waste for someone not to be with you. Don't you want to be sweep off your feet?"

"I thought I had that once."

"What happen?"

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Come on Amber, it's you and me in here no Erza."

"Lucy this is not a story to tell."

"If you had a love of your life, what happen for you to stay single. There is reason behind this. Did your love die? Is it to difficult to carry on.?

Amber knew that it was a matter of time before one of her girlfriends wanted to know more. Only providing them with a single life style wasn't preventing them for asking about the worse time in her life.

"I really don't want to retell this Lucy."

"Amber there are men out there interested in you. I can name a few of them on my hand alone. What was the big tragic thing that stops you from finding love?"

"Lucy stop!"

"Tell me, I want to know. I will not mention this to anyone if you don't want me too."

"I want to keep this to myself." Lucy stands up from the couch and crosses her arms. This chat wasn't going anywhere. She had to push her friend harder to find out the truth.

"You know friends tell each other everything not leaving anything out. I don't see a big deal in you telling me about your life."

"Lucy..."

"It can't be that bad Amber. It's not like you have switch off men completely altogether. Otherwise you wouldn't be around Gray, Natsu, Laxus and Sting and couple more can be added to that list.

"The complexity to this Lucy is hard to mustard up the courage to talk about it. I can't handle it every time the story is told. I don't think you will be able to take it. Let...it...go."

"Does Gray know?"

"He does, so does Laxus and Natsu apparently to my knowledge."

"Okay if you don't want to tell me, I'll ask them. They should be around here too, they haven't been doing anything in the last few days."

"You are so persisted and you will not go to them."

"Watch me." Lucy grabs her jacket and heads for the door to go and ask Gray or find Laxus. The truth to her past has to come out. Knowing she was forcing her hand to do so.

"Lucy please don't."

"I have tried to get you to tell me. It's not fair they know and I don't."

"Because of certain circumstances Luce."

"Well I am going to find out, you stay here like Gray said. I will find him or someone else." Opening up the door and taking one step down. Then she heard the words and she wish she took everything back.

"I was hit Lucy."

Turning her head she sees fresh tears fall from the younger women's face. Her dear friend was going to relieve the memories once more. It was only yesterday that she had to tell Ur and Sliver. Can't the past be the past, without it coming up so much.

"You were hit?"

"Like those punching bags that fighters use to work out. You know those black things that hang from the ceiling."

"Dear God how unforgivable."

"It was after high school I met him. We started going out, things were good. Life felt wonderful. He was the moon in my stars."

"Amber I am sorry, speak no more of this."

"No, you want to know. I am telling you. Sit down and listen." Going back to the couch and holding Amber's hand. This is not want she expected but listening to her story she finally understood.

"I'll give you the sort version, if I can. For four years Lucy I was beat harshly by his hands, by a man name Dan. He change so much in a matter of months. I stayed with him in that time because one I couldn't get away and two I was afraid. Everything I did had consequence that had me beaten from my legs to my face."

"Okay I get ya. I will not speak of this."

"I am not done. I was a different person back then. I was a scare cat, that was lost. It took me all that time to find the strength to leave him. When I finally stood up to him, I had my life flash before my eyes." Moved on the couch and she turn her back to Lucy. Ur or Sliver didn't see the scar, but Lucy will be one other person that will. Lifting up her shirt she points at the scar on her back. "That was from him on the last day of our relationship. I got stab in the back and pushed down the stairs. I was leaving, had my bag packed, but it was to late. He came home to find me ready to take off. I thought I was free, told me he would be gone for hours."

"I am so sorry."

"Well sorry didn't work for him. I am not going into detail about getting hit. That is why I will remain single Lucy. I can't find love or want it."

There was a box of tissue near by and she took a few to wipe her eyes and blow her nose. Repeating again the story had the memories come back.

"I didn't expect that to happen to a kind person such as yourself."

"I try to hide it well and watch the people around me. I can't get close to a man or want to be touch."

To what Lucy seen in the last half hour she allowed Gray to touch and hold her. That didn't make any sense at all. She was going to strike while the iron was hot and ask her the next question.

"Amber have you ever thought about..." The door opens up and Lucy couldn't finish. Gray walks in and sees Amber crying. He was gone for only a short time in hopes that the hot coca would work and they will be doing girl talk. This wasn't what he had in mind at all.

"What did you do Lucy I wanted her to calm down?"

"I feel bad and I wanted to know why she wasn't dating."

"Lucy no."

"She told me about Dan."

"Shit!"

He sits down beside her and hands her a other tissue. Yesterday he felt her shaking when he held her hand. Was she feeling the same emotions as before. "Amber are you alright?"

"It doesn't get easier telling of my past. Lucy you can't spread this around."

"Believe me I will keep it to myself."

"The same way you blurted out me being pregnant."

"This is on a whole different level and having a baby is happier news."

"Lets get you to the hotel I am done talking to Sting. We will not know more until they do there investigation."

"Gray, I want to be alone."

"First we get settled back in our hotel room. You can put your feet up on the couch, watch t.v."

"I would stay in my room not to venture out anywhere. To shun the memories away takes time and right now I feel so drain. It's like they suck the life out me when they are brought up."

Lucy sees the look of worriment in his face, if only she didn't pressure her. How was she suppose to know the events of the past. It explains a lot of her actions towards to the whole male species. Never would she image this, her hope it was a bad break up in which the guy cheated on her.

"Again I am so sorry. Didn't mean for you to get upset."

"You didn't know Lucy and I prefer people not knowing. Gray only found out a couple months ago as well. It was that day he had that commercial with you."

"Ahhhh, when you left and didn't come back."

"That is right. I went home, phone my brothers and hide."

"As of this moment you will not be doing that Amber. I will take you to the sedan and we can go."

"Gray, what did Sting say?"

"Not much, Our only clues will be in what they find or don't."

"That's not reassuring or a good prospect. Better then nothing I guess." Moving forward to stand up from the couch. It was best to leave for now, there wasn't anything more they can do. With her hands she pushes up from her seat to stand up. Gray is right there when she wobbles a little, bracing her up with his hands on her waist.

"Amber are you alright?" Lucy was now getting worried herself. The pregnancy must be affecting her this way. Like Gray told her, not allow her to have any stress.

"I am fine Lucy, didn't have breakfast this morning."

"It's after twelve now you should eat?"

"It's hard at times not able to keep things down. I know in a few weeks it will past, holding out until then." Gray helps puts on her jacket and they walk over to the door. Again he goes first to helps her down the two stairs.

"Next time Amber we will talk about something else or go maternity shopping."

"That will be nice Lucy. I will let you know next week, enjoy your time off." They both wave bye to her and Lucy closes the trailer door. A phone call to Erza was in order, not to tell her about Dan. Though it would be a good idea too, but a promise was made. When she let out the news about her having a baby, boy she was mad at her. Lucy wanted Erza option on what she witness and maybe help get them together.

The door gets open for her and she gets up into her seat. As she was putting on the her seat belt and Gray shuts the door to walk around to the driver side. That same feeling reappears, it nags at her, the one that makes her feel like she is being watched. Still she couldn't pin point where it was coming from and to why it was happening. When he gets into the van himself he turns to look at her and finding that she is searching the area. "What are you looking at?"

"I thought I saw chipmunk with a nut in his hands."

"Must still be collecting food for the long winter months."

"Food is a necessity for them." A lie she told well, if Gray found out about this. Who knows what he would do. It might end her days of going anywhere. There was no point in telling him anything if what she was perceiving could be wrong.

In behind a big oak tree he was watching from a distance. Setting the trailer on fire worked, it got her to come back. He came like everyone else to see the damage caused by his handy work. It was brilliant, a masterpiece in his eyes. The shouts could be heard from here of Gray's arrival. He knew if he was here, so was she.

"Not having a clue to who would have broken into the playboys trailer. I wonder if your small mind can handle this. This is still the begging of much bigger things to befall on you. How I can make you suffer from sending me to prison you bitch." A branch gets snap off by his animosity towards his ex lover. The lengths he will go through to send her into misery, it wasn't enough for him. What he did to her in the past only intensify his need now for control over her. "I may not be able to hurt you physically now but I can hurt you indirectly by those around you. That tall actor that is always beside you is on my list along with others. Be weary, be fearful, be the lonesome pathetic person I know you are."

Throwing the branch into the near by ditch he walks away from the site. He got what he wanted from coming here. Knowing that she's back and able to keep her here for a little while more. A working plan was already forming in his mind for the next encounter. Snickering as he walks down the middle of the road, causing people to honk their horn at him. In return he just gives them a finger. "See you on site Amber...hahahah"

A blue winter jacket was on her but she felt a chill went down her spine, like someone was talking about her. It was very eerie responsiveness that had her rubbing her arms. "Are you cold, I can turn up the heat for you?"

"It's alright, it will pass."

"I'll do it anyways. We will be at the hotel in a few minutes bare with it." Heat was on full blast and the hot air was touching above her ankles. Not wearing the best of winter boots, they were old and tread was wearing off. It was her favourite pair to have and dare not throw them out. With the heat on her the sensation she was getting was dissipating.

They arrive at the hotel and Gray found a parking spot near the entrance. He didn't want her to walk far encase the snow level was higher then her boots. The van gets turn off and she was already missing the heat. If she walks fast enough to get inside to have the warmth of the hotel replace what she minus in the vehicle. She didn't bother to get her luggage out of the back. Gray would tell her no, and not temp to touch it. Started picking up her pace to get into the front lobby. Again not taking into consideration the man that was with her and not witnessing that he didn't grab their belongs. His focus was on her and wanting her inside as well.

Something always forthcoming happens when they are near each other. This is was becoming the norm with Gray, there to catch her when she falls. A few feet away from the door there was a ice patch on the ground that was covered by snow. Her foot slides out from underneath her and she starts going backwards. Closing her eyes to feel the hard impact of her bottom hitting the ground. She was caught in his arms before hitting the ground.

"Careful there Amber, don't want a other twisted foot."

"That was close."

"Sure was, but you were going a little fast."

"The heat from the van was gone I wanted to get inside." He sighs knowing that she was cold, it was good thing on his part to follow her in. If he didn't they would be asking for ambulance to make sure not only was she unharmed but his child too.

"We are five feet from the door." Points with his finger to the sliding door that a man in business suit just open and head to his taxi. Not before the man was giving them a strange look. "I'll get the keys from the front desk you go on up."

They both walk and the lobby was change to Christmas theme already. It wasn't even December yet. There were Christmas trees place in different areas, led lights dangling from the ceiling. At lest there was no jingle bells being played yet, that will happen on December 1st. Gray goes over to the young host working behind the counter. She was tall, dark brown hair, green eyes and he was giving her one of the many smiles she has seen from him. "Good Day Mr Fullbuster, you have return early?"

"We have some urgent matter has come up. The time off was cut off short. Can I have the keys to the room."

"Certainly, here is yours and one for Miss Fernandes. Also your guest just arrived not long ago and head up to your room."

"Guest? We didn't ask for anyone to come by."

"Oh dear, well she said that she had permission to enter your hotel room. One of our bell boys accompany her to the room." If Amber was here instead of Gray she would be insisting the hotel wouldn't be so lax in outsiders entering ones room with out proper notification from them. The fact that receptionist said it was a she would mean one thing.

"Was this person a blue hair women with big eyes and talked in 3rd person."

"Yes, but she talked normally Sir."

"I will head up to know for sure to whom it could be. Next time if this happens we refuse all guest until we arrive understood?"

"It will be done sir and we will make a note of it in the computer." The elevator was starting to close and he makes it in by putting his arm in first. The doors retracted allowing him to go freely and pushes the button for the top floor. What awaits him when he gets there he does not know, it doesn't take to long to get there. Stepping out of the doors, he could hear Amber yelling. This wasn't good and he walked briskly down to the open door.

"Juiva! Why again are you doing this. Put some clothes on for christ sake, and how did you get into this room." There was a couch pillow covering the top portion of her body and the rest was still visible. Covering her eyes not wanting to see her naked body for the 2nd for 3rd time. Warning her of her actions has not been effective.

"Juiva wanted to surprise Gray. Saw Gray on t.v and Juiva had to come over."

"Did you not see me in the car with him?"

"Has eyes only for Gray, Juiva does."

"That does it, I have enough of this. Should not have stay in this room. I am going back down and getting my own."

"I say no." They both turn to see Gray coming into the room and shutting the door behind him. The winter jacket comes off and he flings it at Juiva to cover herself up. She feels his hand go on her arm and he takes her over to her room. "Stay right here."

"Gray I think it's time that I get my own room. You two can do it on living room floor for all I care."

"Enough! You have dealt with a lot these few days."

"Should I have that written across my forehead. I know very well what I have been up too, don't need a remainder."

"I will talk to her. You take off your jacket and shoes in lay down on that bed until I get back."

"But Gray..."

"No buts." Pushing her lightly into the room and closing the door. A hard thump against the door was heard.

"Ouch." Allowing that to go by for the time being Gray turns in Juiva direction. Yeah he has put up a lot with her as well and trying to maintain each other feelings, it might be time for a chat. Juiva is the women he is seeing and dating as he pleases, but he has to make Amber a priority too. Juggling between women was hard and one of them he is not even sleeping with. Sometimes he has a side dish with a third person if they were both willing. Right now there is to much going on and he was thinking of putting the breaks back on and slowly things down again.

"Juiva you should have called me. Instead of showing up like this again. Remember last time she let it slide."

"Juiva saw Gray on t.v was happy to know you were back. So Juiva drop what she was doing and came over."

"Does Zeref know?"

"Ummm Juiva didn't tell him."

"Amber will be getting a phone call from him soon."

"Juiva will say sorry."

"You will have to convince him of your apology." Juiva didn't want to talk about her manger or no one else. Dropping the pillow and jacket unto the floor she puts a hand on her hip and motioning with her finger for him to come closer. It didn't work, Gray wasn't enthralled by her beauty and he didn't make any movements to get closer.

"Juiva not now."

"Juiva wants to be ravish by Gray. It's been so long, Juiva wants Gray in her." To her dismay Gray didn't fall for that either. Usually taking off a few pieces of clothing had him taking off the rest off her. He would start sucking on her breasts or lay her down somewhere to start playing with her pussy.

"Like I said, not now. Juiva you have gone against what Zeref has told you not to do. If you have left a job because of me, don't do it."

"Gray hasn't been here in while and Juiva wanted to come over."

"We could have plan something in more of a decent way. If you please, can you put on your clothes. I am going to start running water into the tub."

"A bath sounds lovely! Juiva doesn't need to redress." Picking up her clothes she starts heading towards the bathroom. Gray gets in her way and holds up his hands. Not to sure why he was stopping her she gives him a curious look.

"The bath is for Amber, she was feeling cold on the way here from seeing Sting."

"What? Why not for Juiva?"

"We are going to have a chat for a bit." Her eyes turn to anger and she marches off to his bedroom and slams the door.

"Great! Can't please both of them." Goes down to the bathroom and starts filling the tub with water and bubble bath. In optimism that it will do the trick and get Amber to relax for awhile. That he can deal with his second problem before a other might arise. Breathing in deep he walks over to her door.

"Amber?"

"What!"

"Can I come in."

"If I told you no, you will do so anyways. Like I have a say."

Her eyes were at the door when he opens it up and walks over to the bed. Laying on top of white duvet and holding onto a pillow. The room didn't have any of her personality in it, since it was a just place for them to stay until going back home.

"How is your hand?"

"It's fine."

"Did you hit it hard enough?"

"It's fine."

"Take your word for it."

Reaching for her hand and pulling her off the bed. Not telling her anything he leads her out of the bedroom down to the bathroom. "Gray..."

"You will see."

Smelling the scent of her bubble bath as he gives the door a slight nudge. Stepping back for her to move forward in to see all the bubbles and the steam. It made her turn around to look at him. "You were cold when you left the van. Here you can warm up and enjoy time on your own. Plus Juiva will not be in your hair or vise versus."

"This could have been for her Gray?"

"I think you need it more. Go on, get in."

"I shouldn't."

"Amber when was the last time a man did this for you? Have any kind of special treatment?"

"Dan never did this, the guys before that where all high school boys that had sex on the brain. In a way, you and those boys do act the same."

"You are saying I am boy?"

"Your tenancy yes. Always about sex and nothing serious."

"I could stand here and argue it with you. I have Juiva waiting, do get in." Motions with his hand for her to get into the tub.

"How can I get in with you standing there. I also don't have my suit case."

"They are still in the van. I'll get them." At the door frame he gets stop by a hand on his back. What could be wrong this time he thinks to himself. It was a different response instead but a more happier one at that.

"Thanks Gray. There is no point for you to do this. I could have done it, slip away in here while you two where talking. I will say it's very kind of you, I appreciate it."

"Your welcome, stay as long as you want."

Locking the door when he leaves Amber strips down to nothing. The water touching her toes felt wonderful, it was the right temperature. Getting in and laying back had her body at ease right away. For the next hour the tension release in her body. Her thoughts were on him and why he went to the trouble. "I am not getting you Gray. What is going?"

During that time a discussion was underway in his room. Gray didn't want the wrath of Zeref down on him or thinking it was their fault that Juiva drop everything to come see him. The last time it was bad as is and didn't want a repeat. Juiva didn't see what the big deal was about, it was her life and she could do whatever. What got to her was the fact that Amber got in her way. That bath should off been for her not his manger. If this continues she will let Amber know that Gray belong to her and her only. There was nothing she could do about it. How wrong Juiva is and not knowing the truth.
