Day 6- Light
Gray sighed deeply as he stood in front of the door of the house he lived six months with Juvia. His dark marks were gone for good and his hair was back to normal, much to his relief. He hated that hair style. He was only wearing his pants, to the weird relief of everyone, but something was missing. And he knew where that missing thing was.
His hand reached for doorknob and taking a deep breath, he turned it and opened the door. He sighed in relief when he entered inside the house he lived for six months. He could hear faint voices coming from Juvia's room and he almost froze.
Taking another deep breath, he walked toward Juvia's room.
"Gray-san!" Wendy exclaimed happily with tears in her eyes when she saw him enter the room. She sat on a chair in front of Juvia, who was sitting on the edge of the bed. At the mention of his name, Juvia looked up with wide eyes and gasped loudly when she saw him.
Gray's eyes widen as well when he saw how bad she was. She was paler than usual, covered in sweat and her eyes...
Her eyes no longer held that sparkle of happiness she always had. Instead, her eyes were filled with sorrow.
Wendy excused herself, aware of the tension between them, and exited the room with Carla.
They stared at each other for who knows how long and the only sound was the pouring rain outside till Juvia decided to break the silence.
"I-is it really y-you, Gray-sama?" Juvia asked in a shaky voice, her lower lip trembling.
Gray swallowed and nodded, looking down at the ground.
Juvia sobbed and with woobly legs launched herself at Gray. He grabbed her waist to not lose his balance and hugged her back tightly.
Gray felt his shoulder getting wet and knew immediately she was crying.
"Y-you're back!" Juvia sobbed holding him tighter. He nodded again and stroked her blue hair.
"I'm back. I'm so sorry for lea-"
"You baka!" Gray was pushed back by small hands and this time he almost fell to the floor. He raises his head to see Juvia still crying but her eyes were filled with anger and frustration.
"Why did you leave Juvia?!" She punched him hard in the chest with each word she yelled. He let her. "Six months you left Juvia! She has been waiting for six months! You call Juvia a baka but you're a bigger baka than Juvia!" He winced with each word and punch she threw at him, but he didn't stop her. He deserves every word and punch.
"Juvia waited and missed you! Juvia missed you for so long! She missed you! S-s-she-I-I missed y-you..." Juvia was now breathing heavily and she fell forward but Gray catched before she could fall. He hated this. He hated that he was the reason she was like this. He hated doing to Juvia even if he wasn't aware of it. He hated himself.
"I'm sorry, Juvia... I'm so sorry you have no idea how sorry I am." Gray held her closer and she snaked her arms around his waist.
"Juvia forgives you." She whispered softly. "She will always forgivw you, Gray-sama."
"You shouldn't." He growled, "I wouldn't. I haven't forgiving myself yet. So how can you possibly forgive me?"
"Because Juvia loves you, Gray-sama. No matter what."
He smiled a little smile and hugged her tighter. "I missed you too, Juv..."
Juvia gasped softly at her nickname and smiled for the first time in six months. Suddenly, her eyes grew wide as if she had remembered something.
"Gray-sama Juvia needs to give you something." Slowly, she pulled away from him and walked toward the drawers. She opened one of them and took something silver with a cross out of it.
Gray sucked a breath at the necklace he had left behind. He had done that on purpose, so Juvia will have something of his to remember him by.
Juvia held the necklace tight in her hand before handing it to him. Hesitantly, he took the necklace from her and stared at it. This necklace has been with him since he was a kid, even before Deloria. It was also a family necklace that's been in the Fullbuster family for years. It used to belong to his father and he passed it down to him when he was five, just like his father's father did with him when he was five too. He put it on and smiled as the familiar cold metal laid on his bare chest.
He looked at Juvia and smiled, "Thanks for taking care of it."
Juvia smiled brightly, tears still in her eyes. "Anything for Gray-sama."
He smiled again and hugged her tightly. She hugged him back just as tight and they stayed like this for who knows how long, yet neither one of them cared. Both were in each others arms and for now that's all that mattered.
"Welcome back, Gray-sama."
The rain outside ceased and for the first time in six months, there was light in their home.
