*Gen POV*

One month passed by, Juvia is already working on moving on. Team Natsu went on a job requested by Yajima. It actually made things easier for Juvia because Gray is not in the guild.

"Ne Juvia, its late. Why are you still here?" Asked Cana.

"Well, I can't sleep and Gajeel-kun is out with Levy, Lily fell asleep," the blunette replied.

"Well, come on and join me!" offered the brunette and gave her a mug, "its been a while since we talked."

"I guess a few drinks won't hurt," Juvia sat down and drank with Cana.

"So, how's it going? I mean with you and Gray?" She asked.

"Juvia, I mean, I don't know Cana-san. I'm trying to move on like what he said when we faced him back in Avatar and I'm trying to leave him alone, like he requested. It hurts so bad but I need to," Juvia sadly replied.

*Sigh*"Some people just don't know what they have. You can always drink with nee-san if you're feeling down and don't bother Gray. You can move on and you can be happy. Just don't forget that you have a family here in Fairy Tail," the older mage winked, "Wait a sec, what about Lyon?"

Juvia looked back in confusion at the older mage,"What do you mean 'Lyon'?"

"I mean, he's been in love with you forever, why don't you give him a chance?" Cana suggested.

"I don't know Cana-san. I like Lyon but I'm still moving on. If ever I will be loving another person, I want my full devotion to him. I don't want to hurt him. For now, we're good friends and if fate would lead us together, then that's it," she answered.

"Makes sense," Cana said then swallowed her beer, "but I'm sure that if you get physically frustrated, he can definitely help you out. Man, he's hot," she winked naughtily.

"Cana-san! Juvia... I mean... I don't think of Lyon-san that way," the blunette blushed madly and took a gulp from her mug.

"Come on! Don't tell me you never checked him out? His stripping habits are as bad as your 'Gray-sama'" Cana teased.

"No no no no. I know that but I never even dared to look," she said and drank her beer.

"Maybe you should," Cana said seriously, "Not just with Lyon, but maybe with other guys."

"I hope I can do that. But not yet," Juvia sighed.

They both sat down in silence and drank their beers then Cana broke the silence, "if you want, we can team up as a tag team with Lyon," she teased the blunette who's blushing madly.

"What 'tag team'?" a dominant familiar voice asked.

"Erza! You're back! Come on, grab a mug!" Cana offered.

"Thanks. Hey Juvia," Erza sat down and greeted the blunette.

"Erza-san! How are you? How was the mission?" she asked the requip mage as she filled their mugs.

"It was successful," the red head gulped her beer, "difficult but successful."

"Really?! Tell me more!" the brunette asked with enthusiast.

"Long story. Some other time. Too tired," Erza drank more of her beer.

"To make the long story short, we all swapped bodies because of some bastard with a weird magic but still we were able to save the village," a certain blonde wizard joined in, "How is it going girls? Can I drink too?" she asked with a sigh.

"Sure! There's more for everyone!" Cana said, grabbing a mug for Lucy while Juvia filled it up.

"Its been a while since we completed a mission without destroying major stuff," the sky dragon slayer sat down with her exceed, Carla, sleeping in her arms.

"Agreed," Erza replied as she chugged down her beer.

They were drinking their beers in peace and talking about the mission when their so called "peace" was destroyed by the familiar argument.

"Who do you say is better?!"

"You heard it correctly flame brain! I'm better!"

"Why don't you say that to my face, popsicle?!"

"I JUST DID, LOSER!"

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A LOSER?!"

"YOU ARE, FRIED ASS!"

"OH YEAH?! YOU WANT SOME?!"

"I'LL GIVE YOU SOME, BASTARD!"

Gray and Natsu were about to start the usual brawl when Erza stood up from her seat and shouted, "SHUUUUUUUUT UP!"

"Yes ma'am," the two mages squeaked in unison.

*Sigh* "Those two are hopeless," the red head sat down and went back to drinking her beer.

Feeling uncomfortable, Juvia stood up, "Ne, its good to see you guys back. Ju- I mean, I have to turn in. Cana-san thank you for accompanying me. It was great to talk with you again," she politely said.

Cana understood why the blunette was leaving and she only sighed in both annoyance and understanding (annoyed that Gray drove her out and understanding that Juvia is not yet okay with Gray around),"Fine Juv. But think about what I said okay?" She smiled and mouthed, 'TAG TEAM WITH LYON'

Juvia understood what the brunette meant and blushed madly and bid farewell to everyone.

When Juvia left, Lucy sighed, "She's still uncomfortable with Gray around."

Erza nodded sadly, "Can't blame her," she sipped on her beer.

"I'm just curious," Cana said, "What exactly happened in Avatar?"

Erza and Lucy looked at each other and told the brunette everything.

"He did whaaaat?!"

"Yes he did," Lucy said.

Cana stood up in anger while Lucy and Erza tried to stop her but to no avail, she went straight to Gray and punched him right in the face.

"What the fuck Cana?!" He said, rubbing his jaw, "What the hell is your problem?!"

"You fucking deserve that! Juvia was nothing but sincere with loving you! She always gave out her best each day to see you and to make you happy... To protect you, to make sure that you are okay!" The brunette raged on, "She was even hoping that you would take her when our guild went on hiatus and she really was happy! She hoped so bad!"

Gray was about to answer but he realized that he has no words for what his guild mate said.

"I'm glad she's moving on and I hope she does Gray," Cana said as she turned her back on him, leaving the guild hall after chugging the remains of her beer.

"Can't say that you don't deserve it man, because with all seriousness, you did hurt Juvia really bad," Natsu sadly told him.

"I fucked up this time, didn't I?" Gray sighed and sat down in defeat.

"Big time, ice princess," Natsu grinned, "I think before there's just rock bottom, but now there's rock bottom, 50 feet of crap,... then there's you."

"Fuck you Natsu," he replied weakly, "What am I gonna do?"

"Just make it up to her," Natsu said, "Be a man."
