Geez, this isn't working at all. I don't know who said counting sheep helps you fall asleep, all it did was frustrate me.
I let out a sigh. Because I had slept with Gray the night before, sleeping alone felt strange. I couldn't get comfortable, and I felt cold without his body heat.
"Hmph..." I turned over with a huff. When did my bed become so lumpy?
I bit my lip as a though began to nag at me. I wiggled around again in an attempt to get comfortable, but it didn't do anything to help. Finally, giving up I pushed the covers off of me and stood up. I shivered as my bare feet touched the cold floor; and I began walking down the hall.
Soon enough I reached the last door on the right, and I hesitantly opened the door.
The room was dark and cool as the fan blew the air downwards. As I crept into his bedroom I felt my heart flutter. Softly, I closed the door and made my way over to the right side of the bed and pulled the covers back. I stilled for a moment, suddenly unsure of my action. Just as I began backing away, a hand shot out from under the duvet and grabbed my wrist. With a gasp, I looked down and locked eyes with Gray. He had a small smile on his face as he used his other hand to grab my other wrist and tugged me towards the bed.
My heart filled with warmth at his obvious encouragement of me sleeping with him. No longer worried about him being upset with me, I crawled into his bed and turned on my side to face him. We smiled at each other for a moment before he pulled me closer by my waist and wrapped his arms around me.
"Hey..." He spoke softly and rubbed his nose against mine. "Your freezing, Juvia."
"I was cold without you." I said while I ducked my head under his chin in embarrassment.
"Here, does this help?" He began to rub his hands up and down my arms.
"Yeah." I said as I snuggled deeper into his arms and let out a content sigh.
"Wanna hear a secret?"
"Mmhmm." I nodded my head against his chest.
"I couldn't sleep without you either." As he spoke he ran his hands through my hair.
"Juvia, Juviaaaaaaaa." Gray softly called as he rubbed my head and ran his fingers over my face. I cracked my eyes open and saw Gray sitting behind me against the head board as he woke me up with sweet words.
"Hmm?" I hummed in question.
"I made you breakfast in bed today. Here sit up." He helped me sit up and placed me between his legs.
"You did? Thank you, Gray."
"'Course." As he spoke he handed me a cup of coffee. As I took a sip, my eyes widened in surprise. He made my favorite coffee. Had he really paid so much attention to all of my quirks that he even knew how I liked my coffee?
"How did you-?"
"Every morning when you make my breakfast you always are on your second cup by the time I'm up. And everyday you make it exactly the same, the coffee almost filling the entire cup, two scoops of sugar, and three creamers." As he spoke he fondly played with my hair.
"Gray, does it ever, shock you on how far we've come in the short time we've known each other?"
"Everyday, Juvia."
"Me too." In response he put a tray filled with all of my favorite dishes on my lap, and pulled me closer while laying his head onto my shoulder. I took a bite of the pancakes he made and moaned at the flavor.
"You like it?"
"I LOVE it, this is delicious." I turned my head as I spoke to him, and as I finished he leaned in and gave me a kiss. My eyes flew open in shock before I closed them and leaned into it. As he pulled away he brushed away strands of my hair from my face and gave me another peck.
"Juvia, I think I'm falling in love with you." My heart jumped as he spoke and my breath caught in my throat.
"I understand your feelings completely." As I spoke I smiled and laid my forehead against his.
