Hello everyone! Thanks for the Faves/Follows/Reviews! It made me very excited to get your notifications from this story. So here's chapter 2 freshly written and ready for you all to read. Remember Review please!
"Drip, drip, drop."
Rain drops lightly tapped on the window sill as Juvia stared out of it looking fondly at the city she barely knew. It was an easy job to complete just routine bandit catching within the city for a hearty reward. The blunette laughed as her stomach growled with hunger after the days long activities. It had taken both of them some time to find the bandits' hide out, but took even less to capture them and collect their reward money. It was the first mission they had been on together alone. It was indeed a smashing success. Juvia turned from the window as Gray Fullbuster her partner for this job walked into their room carrying food for them to eat.
"Smells delicious," Juvia walked to the ice wizard offering help with the bags. She could smell the sauce through the bags and was excited to finally get what was in them. Gray merely followed her as she led him to the tiny table within their room. They unpacked their dinner and began eating away. Times like these were still a bit awkward for the water mage. It was difficult for her to not blab on about her undying love for the wizard in front of her. She was however slightly proud of her self for making it this far through the job without annoying him with it one.
"This is nice." Juvia almost spit out her food when he spoke to her. The whole time she had been making attempts at small conversation but nothing too big. She had been failing realizing even though she had practically stalked this man in front of her for months she didn't even really know that much about him other than about his past. Making small conversation was proving quite difficult due to that little misstep.
"Yes, it is." Juvia turned to look out the window again at the rain softly tapping on the window. This rain was peace full not at all like the gloominess of Juvia's rain.
"So I remember you like to cook…" The rest of the evening consisted of simple small talk and of her and Gray learning the small stuff about one another that each of the never really paid attention to before.
The guild hall was bustling like any other day when they walked through the doors. Returning from their job Levi and Gajeel walked in to the hall looking for a certain water mage looking to make good on the promise they made a few days before. Looking around neither of them could seem to locate her. Levi quickly walked over to Mirajane.
"Levi, Gajeel you guys are back how did the job go?" Mira putting on her everyday smile with genuine intrigue about everyone's lives.
"Easy peasy, anyway have you seen Juvia around we can't seem to find her?" Levi asked leaning over the counter.
"Actually she hasn't been here in a couple of days now that I think of it and she hasn't taken a job lately either." She responds pausing in her cleaning of the beer mug she's holding.
"Thanks" Gajeel hastily drags Levi away from Mira.
"Gajeel what are you?" Gajeel drags Levi across the guild hall.
"Go ask Lucy and Titania if they had fun at the party." He responds looking to the two girls sitting by themselves.
"Why me?" Levi jerks her arm out of his hold.
"I have a bad feeling it never happened and they've known you longer." Levi understanding where he's coming from walks over to the two girls.
"Hey guys!"
"Oh hi Levi." Lucy looked to the girl.
"Hello Levi." Erza responded kind of coldly to her.
"So how was Juvia's birthday party?" Levi jumped right into it hoping for an explanation for Erza's attitude.
"What party?" Lucy quickly asks. Looks like Gajeel was right it seems the party never happened.
"Party dinner same thing. She invited me and Gajeel to come as well but we were heading out for a mission and couldn't go. We promised to take her out for dinner when we got back but we can't seem to find her." Both of the girls looked at Levi like she grew another head.
"Juvia never invited us to any party." Erza stated losing the attitude and looking a bit hurt for a lack of invitation.
"Yea she did I saw her going to your table when Gajeel and I left she had your invitations in her hands. It was you Natsu, Lucy, and Gray." Lucy started to look worried at this point and Levi knew something wasn't right.
"Levi, what day was this?" Lucy asked shakily.
"Three days ago why?" Panic spread across both of their faces.
"Um well you see..."
"They all insulted Juvia to the point of her leaving and throwing all of our invitations in the trash." Natsu piped in showing up out of nowhere. Lucy and Erza jumped three feet off the ground.
"I see so that explains the rain some Nakama you all are." Levi walked away meeting Gajeel at the door knowing she didn't need to explain the dragon slayer could hear it all from across the room.
"Drip, drip, drop." Juvia repeated again for the thousandth time. She had barely moved in three days just watching the rain fall. She only moved when Mirajane showed up per Natsu's orders to make sure she was okay after Gray's outburst. The outburst she could handle but this one was uncalled for. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock at her door. She just ignored it but the knocking kept coming so finally she answered it.
"There you are Juvia you had me worried I haven't seen you in days." She couldn't believe the sight in front of her. How dare he show up here after what he said about her? It was astonishing the audacity he had to say the things he said and then show up talking as if it never happened.
"What are you doing here Gray?" Juvia asked intrigued by what he may come up with.
"We had plans last night but you never showed up so I came to check on you." That's right they were supposed to go see the new play that just came into town. Oh well.
"Why would I come? It's not like were even friends?" Juvia said very cold to the ice mage giving him a run for his money.
"Juvia what's gotten into you of course we're friends." He looked hurt. Aww poor baby.
"Yea friends don't treat one another the way you all treated me, Good bye Gray don't come here again." She slammed the door in his face as he tried to stop her asking what she meant. She turned around and slide down the door tears streaming down her face again as the rain outside started pouring even harder than before.
"Drip, drip, drop.."
