Gray's P.O.V
It pissed me the hell off. The way she smiled, the way her hair fell perfectly around her pale face. What was wrong with me? I hadn't the slightest clue. I reckoned it was just raging testosterone or something like that. I would've thought someone would've noticed by now, to stop me from what I just did. Lucy. Lucy, you know. Why didn't you stop me? Why didn't anyone come after me? Sure I'm a guy, but what the fuck? I have feelings to ya know. I breathed heavily, still trying to calm down. It sure did hurt to see her like that. No, screw that. What am I saying? Didn't feel a thing. Cold as ice. Of course, that's what I'm known for that naturally. I just needed some space to think honestly. It was getting to be too much and she.. she just wouldn't let up. Other girls would give up and just move along but she just kept going, waiting to be loved. I chuckled darkly. Love. "Such a shitty word." I said aloud. I didn't notice how far I walked until I ended up on the edge of town to be greeted by the open forest. Did I love her? No..yes? Fuck! I mentally screamed as I turned around, clenching my teeth together. Why does it make me so angry? Why does it hurt to love? Was it because I was always abandoned? To be left alone? First my parents, then Ul. I had to hold back the tears, I almost choked on a sob but held it in. Am I afraid to lose again? I made my way to the edge of the river and watched the sunset sink into the trees, like my heart into my stomach.
Juvia's P.O.V
I heard yelling. Damn it, a girl can't get some decent sleep. I groaned, opening my groggy eyes to what I wasn't expecting. I was still laying there, in the green filled forest, being stared down by a toad. I felt mushy from all the mud and water. I sat up, my whole body felt sore and my head was throbbing. "Feels like a bad hangover" I thought. "Juvia!" I heard another yell. Utterly annoyed, I walked toward the voice. My feet sloshed through the mud and leaves. I swayed a little, trying to get my balance. I felt like utter shit. I spotted her tiny figure then. "Juvia?" Wendy asked with her sad eyes trailing my body. I gave her a weak smile. "Hello Wendy." I barely choked out. She let her face be covered by her hair, not allowing me to see her expression. She walked over without a word and took my hand. She led me out of the forest and down to where all the others were looking for me. All their concerned faces mocked me as the spoke my name softly. I gave them a small smile to ensure I was fine. None of them were convinced. Erza was the first to speak. "Elfman, carry her to the infirmary. Wendy, I want you to stay by her at all times." "No I'm fine, really." I barely whisper as I stumble to move forward. Elfman winced at my state and scooped me up in his arms. He was warm. Gosh, I never realized how cold I was. I let my eyes droop down and starting falling into a vast sleep. In my dream, it was warm. I was being held, but it wasn't Elfman. It was him. Him..
Erza's P.O.V
Her state was gruesome and painful to see. Her blue eyes couldn't be seen through the swollen and red eyelids. Her complexion was paler than usual, as if she had been sick for weeks. Her hair tussled around her head, tangled and covered in mud. In fact, she was covered in mud head to toe. Her body flailed and she could barely speak. I hate to say this but she looked like a living corpse; just resurrected from the dead. She had to be taken care of. "Elfman, take her to the infimary. Wendy, I want you to stay by her at all times." I said firmly. Juvia barely spoke as she stumbled forward trying to prove she was ok. Elfman winced. No one liked seeing their nakama so.. so broken. My eyes trailed them as they walked back toward Fairy Tail, hoping she would be alright. I heaved a huge breath of vengeance and gritted my teeth. "Natsu, how far is he?" I almost growled. Natsu looked at my slowly with fiery eyes before sniffing the air and replied: "He's close." I took a look at Lucy, who's expression was hard to make out. She seemed angry nonetheless but there was a hint of sadness and fear. I then looked forward and we began forward where Natsu caught Gray's scent.
