I'm writing this GrUvia fanfic for my twin sister, cause she'll undoubtedly see it. It's still for everyone who reads it too!
Gray stood outside the guild's building, leaning against the wall as he brang out a carton of cigarettes. Bringing out a lighter from his pocket, he sighed, thinking about the wonderful water mage that occupies this thoughts every now and then. He started his little habit of smoking a few months back, around the time of his mentor's death anniversary. He didn't like smoking, but he just couldn't help it. Alcohol didn't work too well, and usually he would get caught for that because of Mira. He thought about the love of his life while looking down at his feet, lighting his cigarette in a quick motion. His mind was racing, he thought of her constantly now, she wouldn't leave his thoughts. Her soft blue hair, her beautiful eyes.. He remembered every little thing about her.
He heard the guild's door opening slowly and dropped his cigarette in a flash, stepping on it so whoever came around to the side of the guild didn't see him in his pathetic state. Turns out, it was the obsessive water mage that he had a thing for. "Um.. Gray-Sama.. Juvia is confused on why you are outside here.. There's a party going on in the guild.. -" She stopped, wincing at the ground. His lighter fell out of his pocket. Gray moved towards her, his foot leaving the burnt-out smushed cigarette. "Gray-Sama.. Is that a cigarette?.." Juvia whispered, shocked but also in a state of confusion. "J-Juvia smokes too..! Please let her partake in this with Gray-Sama.." Juvia closed her fist tightly, putting on a demanding but caring face that made Gray's heart soar. "Juvia!.. I wasn't..!" Gray denied, the love of his life found out the truth. "Oh? But Juvia seen the cigarette and the lighter.." Juvia mumbled. "But please, Gray-Sama, let Juvia smoke with you!" Juvia demanded, accepting the fact that her handsome ice mage smokes. "Okay..?" Gray mumbled, reaching into his pocket for the carton from before. "Thank you, Gray-Sama." Juvia stood infront of him politely.
Gray picked up his lighter from the ground and grabbed two smokes from the carton, he handed one to Juvia and lit both of the ends. Gray took a breath from the cigarette, zoning out slowly. Juvia took one big breath in, and coughed. Gray stood there, oblivious to her coughing. Juvia shook in the spot she was standing in, coughing more than when she started. Gray was completely zoned out. "G-Gray-Sama..." Juvia coughed, grabbing his hand tightly, coughing more and more. She nearly lost herself before punching herself in the stomach to possibly stop coughing. "O-Ow!.. Juvia is in pain from the smoke.. and her fist.." Juvia whined, tearing up. "Juvia's.. Gonna go.." Juvia coughed again, dropping her cigarette on the ground as it was still lit, blazing about like a little flame. Gray noticed the cigarette and picked it up, staring blankly at it before snapping out of his trance, running around the guild to the guild doors to check if she was there. And there she was, looking down at a table drinking whatever was in the cup in front of her. "Juvia tried to impress Gray-Sama, Erza.. Was Juvia successful?.." Juvia muttered, coughing a little bit, and then resorting to taking a sip of the contents in the cup in front of her.
'She.. Tried to impress me..?' Gray thought, shocked. 'She doesn't smoke after all..' he added. Erza rubbed Juvia's back soothingly, comforting her. "What did you do to try and impress that fool?" Erza asked, taking a seat beside Juvia. "Juvia smoked.. But Juvia kept coughing..! Is smoking bad for Juvia?" Juvia worriedly asked, very scared. "I'm sure it is if you kept coughing, Juvia." Erza patted her guildmate's head. "I'm going to have a little talk with him later today, would you like to join me?" Erza asked, worried for her friend's safety. "Y-Yes please.. Juvia will like that very much.. Because she has things to say of her own too.." Juvia smiled at the scarlet haired fairy queen. "Juvia, I think you should rest for a little bit because those cigarettes seemed like they harmed you enough.." Erza told the water mage all the while having a worried expression crossing her face.
Later that day, Juvia got up from the bed she was resting in, she had a slight headache but she got up anyways even though sleep would of been the best thing for her. She walked up to the door, opening it slightly. "Erza!.. Juvia's ready for the talk with Gray-Sama." Juvia announced to her best friend. "Alright." Erza said, walking up the stairs to face her. "Lets go then, I think he's at the back of the guild or something today. I seen him a few times this week next to or beside the guild.. How.. Pathetic, right?" Erza sighed, running her hands through her long scarlet hair.
"Shall we?" The redhead reached out her hand to the water mage who slowly took it and had help from Erza to walk down the stairs.
I didn't think it would turn out this way. Well anyways, I hope you enjoyed the first chapter of this lil story!
