Chapter 6

Juvia's POV

I was in shock to see Gray this close to me. "G-Gray, what are you doing here?" I ask.

My friend Lyon and I decided to come to have some fun; but, Audrey insisted to come with us. It wasn't a choice in the matter. Andrew came with us as well. What are you doing here?" He asks me.

"Well Erza and I decide to come here to relax as well." I reply.

Gray shudder.

"What? You don't like her?"

"She scares me."

I laugh.

"Oh, so you're laughing at me, huh?" Gray started to splash water at me. I splash at him back. We're all laughing and having a great time. We stop for only a second and looked into each other eyes. Time stood still for us. We're waiting for one of us to do something to the other. Gray suddenly touched my face and continues to look at me.

A voice quickly snaps me back into reality. "Juvia!"

I turn to see Natsu and Lucy waiting for me. "Do you want to speak with them?" I ask Gray.

"Why not."

Gray's POV

I was walking back with Juvia. And to be honest, she was the most beautiful woman I ever seen. Her body was so silky. And when I touched her, I was in a whole another place with her. In my heart is saying go for it. There may not be a second chance again.

As walked up, we're greeted by Lucy with a warm smile.

"Well, look what the cat dragged in. Girlfriend is giving you a hard time." said Natsu.
"Well, at least my girl is beautiful and I treat her with respected unlike you, flame head."

Natsu tackled me to the sand and we've a fist fight.

Hey, would you guys stop? People are watching us." Lucy said to them. But we didn't respond.

Then, a large shadow was hovering over us. We look up to see who it was and it was Erza. And boy was she furious at us.

"What the…hell…are you doing?!" She said to us.

We instantly froze in fear and immediately got back up to our feet. "We're sorry." We said in union.

"It's surprised to you here, Gray." She said to me. "Audrey with you?"

"Of course. And Lyon and Andrew are with me as well." I responded.

"Great. We can play some volleyball today." Said Natsu.

"Are you sure?" I ask him.

"Why not? I mean going out for a swim is fun but. But, it gets boring for a while don't you think."

I scratched my head. "Okay. You do have a point. All right, I'm in. But, let me check on Lyon. Who knows maybe he might join in the fray." I turn away and glance at Juvia again and headed on back.

Across from where was walking, I see Lyon looking for something. "What's going on?" I ask.

"It's Audrey. I can't seem to find her."

I was baffled. "How did this happen?"

"Well, while you're swimming in the water. Audrey and I were walking down by the beach and we saw a friend there that she knew. She said she was going to be right back. And told her not to go. But, she wouldn't listen." Lyon explained.

I face palmed. I couldn't believe this. I was supposed to be watching her. Moreover, if she spills some of my secrets, I can't afford that to happen. "Have you seen Andrew?"

"He's searching for her now."

"All right then. I'll go find her as well. And could do something for me while I am gone?"


Juvia's POV

I was sitting in the sand looking at the sunset soon moving in and people relaxing on the beach. I let out a deep breath and smiled. I hope Gray comes back soon. Lucy sat down with me.

"Are you okay?" she asks me.
"Yes, I'm okay. "

"Listen about what I said to you earlier I'm sorry. But, you really dance with him didn't you."

I sighed in defeat. "Guilty. But, it was something different. Like something inside of me came out like I've never seen before. I was kind of surprised by this."

"Well as your friend, I'm happy for you. But to warn you, you've to be very careful. Some of them have secrets and those secrets can hurt you."

And believe you me and could understand that. Lucy date a man named Loke many years back before she met Natsu. They were dating a while back but she caught him cheating on her with another female. It broke her heart and she broke up with him.

I was very angry at him for doing that to him. So, I've got to be careful with his especially when he's getting married.

Erza was stretching out of her legs, getting ready to play when she accidently bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry."

She turns around to see Jellal was standing behind her. "J-J-Jellal?"

He chuckles at her. "Go to see you too, Erza."

"What are you doing here?"

"I came for a little swim. But, it seems the beach is staring to get a little crowed. So, playing a game of volleyball?" he responds.

She nods. "Good I'm in. Who are we playing against?"

Natsu was on the other side of the net. "You're playing against me and Gray." He said to them.

Unfortunately for you, Gray can't come to play at the moment so I'm taking his place."

I turn to see the man that Gray was talking about. Lyon.

Natsu pouts in disappointment. "He's with Audrey, right?"

Lyon nods. "Apparently, she got lost and he and Andrew are searching for her."

She got lost. Natsu laughed. "What's she five years old?"

"Natsu! Don't say that." I said to him. "Maybe she it was first time back here. You never know."

Natsu went silent and quickly looked at Lyon and then back at Jellal and Erza. "So, are we ready to play some volleyball? They nod and Natsu made the first serve.

Three hours has passed. And everyone was all ready to head home. "Juvia, thanks for invite Natsu and I to come out here." Lucy said to me.

"No problem. Drive safe." I replied as they headed out.

Erza walked up to me. "Juvia…Jellal ask me to go out with him for a while. You wouldn't mind going without me do you?" she asks me.

I smiled. "Go ahead. I'm going to leave anyway."

Erza smiled and gave me thumbs up and left with Jellal. As soon as I was about to leave, Lyon stops me.

"Can we talk?" he asks.

"Go right ahead."

"You know, Gray told me about this woman that made him happy and more relaxed. He couldn't give me the details but I could make a guess. Juvia, were you the one that made Gray that way?" he asks.

I was startled. I didn't know what to say. As I was about to say something, When Gray's voice echoed out at us.

"Hey." He came running towards us.

"Hey, you missed a good game. Where's Audrey?"

"He's with Andrew now and apparently, she is now drunk."

Lyon and I looked at him. "Don't ask." He said to us. "Anyway, he said to me he was going to take her home now."

"Well then, I guess I should head home as well." said Lyon.

"All right, see you later. Gray and Lyon gave a fist punch and he left us.

He then looks at me. "It's not easy handling a woman you're about to married to." He slightly chuckled.

"Well, anyways I should be going home now. I've got a lot of stuff to do. Good night, Gray."

Gray suddenly stops me. "Wait. Can I come by your place? I mean I've got nothing better to do right now. Would you mind?" he asks me.

I look at his face. How could I say no to him. "Sure. You can come." I told him.

"Great. I'll grab my car out of the front and I'll meet you there."
