Gray woke up with the wail of a baby and expected his wife tell him that she was going to take care of their daughter since he's got her the night before, but recalled that Juvia was out on a mission for three days – the blunette was supposed to come back home the night before and if she didn't return the next day, he would go try to find her – and it meant that he was the one who needed to get up and calm Ursula down.

Groaning when he sat on the bed, Gray took a moment to sigh and massaged his neck right before got up from the bed and leave his room to go to his daughter's, which was down then hall.

Ursula was sitting on her crib; red faced as thick tears fell down on her cheeks. His heart broke every time he saw his baby girl crying, he felt like his world was falling. She was almost an exact copy of her mother: the same white skin and shape of eyes, plus the pink lips and curls – except that Ursula had her hair in a much darker shade of blue. The ten-months-old child was wearing a pink onesie with blue stars and her pacifier was forgotten on the side of the crib.

"Hey, Little Bear." Gray said as soon as he entered the light purple bedroom and the child turned her head to see her father and cried louder – theatrically, no doubt – and the man smiled softly to her. "Did you have a bad dream?" He picked her up and kissed her cheek.

"Mama." Ursula sobbed.

Gray sighed. "Your Mama is on a job, Little Bear." He picked the pacifier and gave it to her. "She will be home soon, but for tonight you will have to settle with me." Ursula rested her head on Gray's shoulder, hid her face and put a tiny hand on the other side of his neck, grabbing his hair and pulling it slightly – like she liked to do when in that position – and she whimpered once more. "I know, I know. I miss her too." He caressed the child's back tenderly. "Now you have to sleep, Little Bear." Ursula whimpered again, moving her legs in an impertinent way and Gray sighed; it was going to be a long night.

When Gray woke up in the morning, he frowned when he didn't feel his wife's body curled against his and groaned when he realized that she was still out on a job. Five years of being together made him very used to have Juvia by his side when he woke up in their home.

Decided to get up and prepare Ursula's bottle, Gray sighed and looked to the bedside clock, noting that Ursula had overslept for an hour – which wasn't much of a surprised since he took about that much time to put her back to sleep that night.

He got up, made the bed and went to the bathroom before going to the kitchen and was about to begin preparing the bottle when he heard keys juggling on the front door and then a knob being turned. Gray immediately left the kitchen just in time to see his wife enter their apartment. The man smiled as he saw her put her bag on the floor before turn around to see him.

"So… You remembered that you have a house and decided to come back to your husband and daughter, huh?" Gray said with his arms crossed over his chest and with a raised eyebrow as the blunette giggled. "I thought I'd have to be a single dad."

"Don't be silly, Gray-sama. It was just one extra night; Juvia didn't run away with the client." She stepped close to him and threw her arms around his shoulders and her husband quickly put his own around her small frame. "Juvia missed the last train yesterday, but took the first one back home."

"Good." He kissed her lips and he almost melted on her embrace; those days she took away from home were awfully long for him. When did he become so dependent of the Water Mage? "I missed you." Gray whispered to her.

"Not more than Juvia missed you." The woman giggled and kissed him again.

Gray grabbed her hand and led her to their couch. "Are you alright? How was the job?" He sat down and made her sit on his lap, his arms around her waist as she wrapped her own arms around his neck.

The blunette groaned. "That man had more than two hands, Juvia swears." She told him. "I slapped one away, then another time, than another, plus another. It always seemed to find my ass."

"Excuse me?" Gray raised an eyebrow.

"Don't." Juvia sighed. "I just want to forget about it. That man was disgusting and all Juvia wanted was to come home to you and Ursula-chan." She frowned. "Where is she, by the way? It's too late for her to still be asleep."

Gray kissed the hollow of her neck. "She is, though; last night she woke up crying – I think she had a nightmare – and took me a long time to put her back to sleep, so I'm letting her sleep in for a while, otherwise she will be cranky all day long."

"She gets that from you, you know?" The woman chuckled. "You get all cranky if you have a nightmare during the night and you still have to wake up early."

"Well… it sucks." Gray kissed her jaw. "I'm glad you are home." Juvia hummed in agreement. "The next mission is mine, but I will take it only in a few days, it's been a while since the three of us had more than a day together."

"That will be nice." Juvia agreed and was about to kiss his lips when they heard their daughter.

"Da!" The girl yelled from her bedroom and Gray groaned, knowing very well that his baby girl was calling for him.

Gray his face on the crook of her neck. "Remember when we returned from missions and all we did was tearing our clothes off with no interruptions?" The girl called her father one more time. "Why do we keep her again?"

Juvia laughed, getting up from his lap and offered a hand to him. "We love her."

"Oh, right. That." Gray said with a resigned sigh and accepted her hand to get up as well. "Now that you are here I don't need to prepare her bottle, so, let's go see her."

"We will have time tonight to be together." Juvia assured her husband and he pulled her to him one more time before their daughter called for him once again.

"Come on." He pulled her towards their baby's room. He opened the door and saw Ursula up in her crib, her hands grabbing the bars, her pacifier on her mouth and her hair in a mess of curls – she looked adorable – and she smiled a bit when she saw him. "Hey, Little Bear, look who I found." Gray opened the door even further to reveal Juvia.

Ursula's expression was the most adorable thing Gray has ever seen. Her eyes widen, her mouth opened so wide that the pacifier fell out of her mouth, a moment later, Ursula gave them the biggest smile they ever seen and started to jump on her mattress.

"Ma!" The girl said raising her arms and opening her tiny hands towards her mother. "Mama!"

"Hey, baby girl." Juvia stepped inside the room and walked towards the crib where she got her daughter, raising the baby up and Ursula giggled in delight, moving her legs in excitement. "You look so big."

"It's been four days, Juvia." Gray rolled his eyes. "She didn't change."

The woman started to kiss the baby's face all over and the child laughed and even Gray smiled with the interaction between mother and daughter. "Ursula-chan looks more beautiful every day." Gray agreed. He saw his wife put Ursula on her hips and paid attention as the baby started to babble nonsense.

"Da." Gray stared at his daughter as the blue haired baby pointed to her mother. "Mama!" She said, excited.

"Yes, I saw her, Little Bear." Gray chuckled and kissed the top of her head. The man watched as mother and daughter exchange kisses and tickles and put an arm around his wife's shoulders. It would never stop too amaze him how much his two girls could make him feel like he never felt before.
