A/N so here is the newest chapter hopefully it will be better than the last few :-)
Mirajane Strauss sat silently on her barstool making a plan, "First… no that won't work! Maybe... yes! That's perfect! Then...and...Then I'll need Erza's help...this is gonna work! But first I have to set up."
_Time skip_
Lucy and Natsu had come in just now and Mira smiled at her handiwork all these couples and none of them would make a move, she shook her head, that wasn't true Alzac and Bisca had gotten together on their own. She was sure someone unexpected would make a move for themselves.
But right now she had other things to do.
_scene change_
Juvia sat on her bed putting on her best dress (yes must of them were the same) but today she was going to wear a light blue sundress with a sash and two flowers on her right hip.
"Juvia loves this dress!" She smiled "it reminds her of Grey-sama!"
_scene change_
Grey sat alone on the empty pier kicking up water and freezing it in the air just to watch it fall back in to the water to make another splash that he could freeze.
The cycle was endless, but it was the only thing to keep Grey from thinking about a certain blunette who was usually with him at the pier. From a distance of course but Juvia was always with Grey, it made him feel warm inside that she cared, but then again he was *never* alone!
Grey shook his head if he couldn't get her out of his head then he would just have to go talk to her.
_scene change_
Lucy and Natsu sat alone at a table in one corner of the guild Gajeel and pantherlily sat in another corner one corner was vacant and the last corner was occupied by Laxus.
Mira looked around for Grey but he wasn't in the guild anywhere, just then a man burst through the door. "Speak o' the devil" Mira chuckled.
"Hey Mira" Grey walked in leisurely trying to seem calm and normal "have you uh, have you seen Juvia anywhere?" He looked around the guild hopefully.
"Why yes! I have seen her!" Mira smiled winningly.
"Really, where?" Grey asked eagerly.
"Over there Mira pointed to the poor sad girl all alone at a big empty table.
"Gee, she looks terrible" Grey said sadly.
"I know" Mira sighed "you should go ask her what's wrong."
"I should? I should!" Grey stood and swiftly but still with his uncaring facade walked over to Juvia to ask her if she was alright.
"Hey, Juvia are you alright?" Grey asked putting a hand on her shoulder and going right through the watery being "wha" Grey jumped but not too far.
"Juvia has no one to spend her birthday with" the water mage sobbed "and now Grey-sama is disgusted by Juvia's watery body!"
"Umm-uhh Juvia I'm not disgusted I just was surprised." Juvia was not listening. "Juvia I will hang out with you for your birthday!" Grey burst.
"Grey-sama" Juvia looked up at the flustered Grey "thank you!" Juvia tackled the ice wizard.
Mira smiled, "Making a girl depressed is so easy" She laughed "and making a boy want to make feel better is so much easier."
A/N we all know Mira can be devilish if she wants to I just wanted this to go smoothly. Sad girls will always love the boy who helps them and boys want to make girls feel better, it's just the way life works (Mira agrees with me)
_oh yeah time skip_
Juvia skipped along the meadow picking flowers and putting them in her hair that Mira and Lucy had done up for her "date" with Grey.
Grey watched Juvia he had never noticed how pretty she was with the flowers and her dress billowing around her with each step, he smiled she really was like water calm and graceful, gentle and cool.
"Grey-sama!" Juvia turned and gave him a big beautiful smile.
"Yes?" Grey said staring at her lovingly.
Juvia blushed "Grey-sama, your pants" she said shyly.
"Gah!" Grey cried "when did that happen?!" He jumped around looking for his pants, being nude was inappropriate when you are alone with a lady.
"We can go back to the guild if you..." Juvia started.
"No" Grey sighed "I found my pants but are you ok with being in public with a shirtless man?"
Juvia laughed "Juvia doesn't mind" she said "but the restaurant will so we will go shopping!"
Grey chuckled as the perky water mage grabbed his hand and led him to a clothes shop they browsed quickly then bought a light blue shirt that matched Juvia's dress.
"Now Grey-sama will be allowed to eat with Juvia" Juvia smiled.
Grey just smiled and followed the girl to the fancy restaurant at the far end of magnolia, it was one of the few Natsu hadn't destroyed.
_scene change_
Mirajane sat at the guild waiting for Grey and Juvia to come back.
At the moment Max, Macao and Waccaba were having another drinking contest.
"So Mira" a drunken Max looked at the former bikini model "you look a little lonely, do you wanna play?"
Mira giggled "oh Max I think that booze is getting to your head. You should go home and take a nice long nap" Mira's eyes flashed a demonic glint.
"Max you should run" Macao chuckled "its getting late and your getting drunk."
"Yes" Waccaba agreed "leave this to the professionals."
Mira chuckled and swiftly changed into the robust woman that was Waccaba's wife "but I'm so tired Wacky" she sighed "I need a foot rub" she slung her newly pudgy foot onto the counter.
Waccaba fell off his stool "I-I-I Told you we got a divorce!" he cried as his mug of booze fell on top of him.
Macao guffawed and Mira chuckled with her new laugh.
Suddenly Juvia burst into the guild "Grey-sama (pant) and Natsu-san (pant) are fighting (pant) and they (pant) are destro..."
The long time guild members didn't need the blunette to finish, Mira swiftly changed back and they ran out the door and easily followed the sounds of destruction.
Mira, Macao and Waccaba arrived at the fight just in time to see Natsu throw Grey into a burning street cart.
"NATSU! GREY! GET OVER HERE THIS INSTANT!" Macau yelled at the top of his lungs.
The two boys stopped mid swing and turned to face the former guild master.
Natsu turned but before he could take a step Grey kicked him in the back of the head and Natsu tumbled down the pile of rubble.
Natsu angrily jumped back up and punched Grey so hard he flew up into the air and landed right in front of Macao and Mira.
Grey started to stand but Macao grabbed him "that's enough boys!" Mira scolded.
Natsu pouted "he started it" Natsu pointed to the ice mage.
Grey jumped up "you were givin me a dirty look!"
"A pervert like you shouldn't be all alone at night with an innocent girl like that!"
"I wasn't going to rape her! We were hanging out for her birthday!"
"That's not what it looked like from here!"
"Hothead!"
"Freeze brain!"
"Both of you be quiet!" Mira yelled "I'm sure this was just a misunderstanding now the both of you need to go home and get some rest."
The boys stormed off in their different directions.
Mira turned to see poor Juvia all alone in the end "oh Juvia, I'm so sorry" Mira sighed.
"No no Juvia is fine she had a great day with Grey-sama and her birthday was very special. Juvia is not upset she is very happy. These things happen all the time."
Mira sighed "as long as you feel alright."
Juvia gave Mira a huge happy smile and then happily walked back to her apartment.
Mira watched the girl "I think that went pretty well actually" she thought "I can't wait for tomorrow!"
_time skip_
Mira had filled Lucy and Erza in on her plan for getting everyone together the next day at the guild.
Erza laughed "I was wondering how Natsu got the idea to ask Lucy out so suddenly."
"I know I know" Lucy said tiredly "you never thought he'd get the guts till much later and blah blah blah."
Mira giggled "so will you guys help me out?" The barmaid asked eagerly.
"Of course we will!" Lucy smiled.
"These boys do need a bit of help" Erza laughed "I'm in."
Mira smiled "great cause now I need your help with Grey and Juvia" Mira smiled "Erza? Will you help me?'
_time skip_
Erza led Grey and Juvia to her favorite picnic spot; it was in a large park in the center of magnolia with the cake shop on one side and the pet store with the dog that reminded her of Jellal on the other side.
The park itself was home to the rainbow magnolia trees.
Juvia and Grey picked a flat space and Erza spread out the blanket there was a lot of food and a cake.
The picnic started out quiet then Juvia and Grey started a conversation and Erza started to feel unneeded "guys" Erza groaned "I don't feel very well I think I'm gonna go back to the guild."
"No Erza-san Juvia will come too" Juvia said standing to leave.
"No Juvia but thank you stay and have a good time" Erza smiled then when she was almost out of sight she ducked behind a tree and waited to see what would happen and report back to Mira.
"So your family seems really nice" Grey told Juvia.
"Juvia's family was nice, now Juvia is an orphan." Juvia said sadly.
"I'm an orphan too" Grey sighed.
Juvia gave Grey a huge smile "Juvia is very happy to be here with you Grey-sama."
"Why is that?" Grey started "No I've got it you're happy because you're with me right" Grey said wearily.
"Do you know why Juvia loves you Grey-sama?" Juvia looked at Grey imploringly.
Grey only looked at the pizza he had been eating.
"Juvia loves you because you saved her, a stranger and one who tried to kill you at that, even though you didn't know Juvia or even if she was a good person you accepted that there is good in every body and you didn't let Juvia die because you believed that there was good in Juvia too."
Grey shifted uneasily "I think you made me a lot more heroic in your mind" Grey smiled "but Juvia, I think I love you too."
Juvia's eyes filled with tears "why Grey-sama?"
"Because you see the good in me even though I'm flawed and you love life even though it can be hard. You see the good in everything, just like you say I do."
Juvia smiled and Grey smiled back Erza couldn't take it any more "just kiss already!" Erza yelled in her loudest voice.
Before Grey could turn to see who it was Juvia-who had seen-leaned in and kissed Grey right on the mouth.
Erza squealed and ran to tell Mira as fast as she could.
**A/N so that's done I was gonna have it be longer but I got lazy so I didn't write more. Mira says to tell you she's working on Elfman and Evergreen next. That chapter will be a bit shorter. Please comment I like constructive criticism so please**
