Ice Melts into Water

PS: So you guys, we decided to divide the couple stories and make them into individual chapters. Do enjoy this GruVia chapter. The next chapter will be either LORIES or JERZA. Stay tuned. ^^

The beach was pouring with a lot people. The restaurant was packed!

"Hey! We have orders here!" yelled one customer at Juvia.

"Hai! Chotto matte kudasai! (Yes! Please wait for a while)" replied the bluenette as she tries to get the orders from her current customers.

By the corner, Gray was just looking at Juvia. He wanted to help her out but he thought that she may get scolded by the manager. He stayed put as another waitress gives him his order.

"Un…arigatou" stated Gray as he tries to focus on his food.

A few moments later, Juvia was called out by another waitress that the tray that she was carrying fell on the ground. The juice on the tray was spilled accidentally onto the manager of the restaurant.

"Kono onna! (B***h!)" exclaimed the guy as he looks at his stained shirt.

"Gomenasai! (I'm sorry!)" bowed Juvia as a sign of apology.

Her uniform was a very revealing on the chest. It was a V-neck that extended onto the half-part of her chest which revealed a lot of cleavage. Realizing that a beautiful and sexy young lady is in debt with him, the manager gives off a smirk and gets a very clever idea.

"This shirt costs $200 chicky. Do you know how much that is here in Japan?" asked the guy arrogantly.

"No" Juvia started to shiver.

"It's around 20,000 yen chicky. You better pay me now or else…" the guy's grin widened. He knew Juvia didn't have that much money.

"Juvia doesn't have that much money…" Juvia was in the verge of tears.

Suddenly, the man cupped her chin and stared at her from head- to- toe. He gave off a very perverted grin as he licked his lips.

"If you don't have that much money then I guess…" he was about to whisper into her ears when suddenly Gray stood up. Gray knew where this was going. He slammed a $500 dollar bill onto the counter beside the man.

"Here's $500. Keep the change. We're getting out of her" he grabbed her hand and led her out the restaurant.

"Now wait a second" the man was eager not to let Juvia go. He grabbed her left arm—tightly. Juvia twitched a little.

Gray karate chopped the guy's arm using his right hand. He glared at him.

"Don't you dare touch her" said Gray as he puts his arm around Juvia.

"Kono yarou! (You bastard!)"and with that Gray and this other guy started punching each other in the face.

Gray's top flew as he took them off—a sign that he was serious. A few moments later, Gray managed to finish the perv with one last blow.

"Warukunai. (Not bad)" stated Gray as he wipes off some blood on his mouth.

He picked up his shirt from the ground and took Juvia's hand and led her out of the restaurant.

Not realizing that they were still holding hands after minutes of walking, Juvia stopped in her tracks. She started weeping and her tears fell on the sand below her feet.

"Arigatou Gray-sama" she said as she covered her face with her both hands.

"Gray-sama? Gray wa ii yo. (Master Gray? Gray is okay)" said Gray as he scratched his head and blushing at the same time.

"Ne Juvia. Sono shima he iku. (Hey Juvia! Let's go to that island)" said Gray as he looks at the small island—minutes away from where they were standing.

"Shima? Juvia to Gray-sama to ishho ni…futari dake de…gyaaa! Musukashite…sono shima he…(Island? Together with Gray-sama…just the two of us…gyaaa! Could it be…that in that island)" Juvia's wild imaginations were at it again.

"Zaihou ga aru kana (I wonder if there's a treasure)" he was just interested in the treasure.

"Kiite nai shi (He's not listening)" Juvia was disappointed.

"Ne, Juvia…Donna dansei ga suki? (Hey Juvia…What kind of guy do you like ?)" asked Gray as he was still staring at the island. (Author: Love his randomness)

"Chotto…Gray-sama wa kizutsu? (Wait…Gray-sama, are you hurt?)" Juvia zoomed on the bruise on Gray's arm.

"Daijoubo yo! (I'm fine!)" said Gray as he pulled his arm away from her.

"Daijoubo janai yo! (No you're not!)" Juvia raised her voice as she took her the cloth that tied her hair.

She meticulously wrapped it around his arm. (Author: I don't know if you put wrappings on bruises but I guess, I just want to capture the romance here. Lol)

"Kore de ii. (This will do)" stated Juvia as she tucks strands of her hair behind her ear.

Gray knew that Juvia liked him. He looked away from her—avoiding her gazes.

"Doushite? (What's wrong?)" asked Juvia.

"Boku no shitsumon…kotaete kure(My question…please answer it)" Gray was not sure how to ask Juvia that question. He's not even sure how she will answer.

"Nani ka shitsumon ga arimasu ka? (What question do you have?)" asked Juvia with a confused look on her face.

"Juvia…Donna dansei ga suki? (What kind of guy do you like ?)" Gray was blushing at the thought of asking that question.

"Eto…Gray-sama to onaji. (Someone like you)" smiled Juvia.

Gray looked at her as if in a daze. What did she see in him anyway? He wanted to know what.

-"Doushite boku nano? (Why me?)"

-"Doushite kata iu to Gray-sama wa yuumei desu ga hokorashikunai desu. Juvia to Lucy to issho ni itsumo Madoushi Oujisama no konsaato he iku. Juvia wa Gray-sama no ichiban fan gaaru desu. Dakara, gakkou he atta toki, Juvia wa totemo ureshikatta desu. Juvia wa tada fan gaaru desu ga Gray-sama no koto ga aishiteimasu. (The reason is that Gray-sama is famous but he's not arrogant. Juvia and Lucy always go to Madoushi Oujisama's concert together. Juvia is Gray-sama's number one fan. That's why when I met you at school, Juvia was so happy. Juvia is just a fan girl but I love you)" Juvia was sure about what she felt for Gray.

Gray saw how much Juvia loves him. He can see it in her eyes. He didn't see that spark in any other fan—any other girl he met. He gave off a smile and went closer to her. He gave her a hug and said…

"Chigau. Omae wa tada fan gaaru de wa nai. Sore wa yokatta. (Wrong. You're not just a fan girl. And that's good.)"
