Chapter 2: Lyon Vastia

Juvia woke up the next morning and got out of bed. She didn't have to go to work today because it was the weekend and she doesn't work on weekends. It was good that she didn't have to go to work. She felt empty inside. Her co-workers would have noticed this and she didn't want them to worry about her. She also didn't want to tell her friends what happened between her and Gray. Especially Gajeel. He would march over to Gray's apartment and beat the shit out of him for hurting Juvia. But Juvia didn't want that to happen beacuse she was the reason that they fought in the first place. She walked to the bathroom to brush her teeth and take a shower. She didn't feel like eating at home, so she went out. She didn't take her car because she needed time to clear her head. As she was walking, she saw a small cafe across the street. It was the same cafe that she had met Gray in. She ran across the street and into the cafe. As she walked in, she was hit with the smell of freshly brewed coffee and baked pasteries. Not a lot of people were in the cafe so she quickly ordered a latte and a croissant. She took her order and sat at the table in the back. As she drank her latte, she couldn't help but remember what Gray had told her when she asked what type of coffee he liked.

'I like my coffee black. I like the bitter taste of it.' After he said that, Juvia felt the need to know more about him. She wanted to know what he liked, what he didn't like, where he was from and so on. She wanted to know who he was. When he told her his name, she knew that she was in love. Not only was he attractive, but he had a certain feel to him. Juvia sighed and rubbed her face. She quickly pulled her hands away when she realized that she was crying.

''You know, a beautiful girl like you shouldn't cry.'' Juvia's head shot up. Standing in front of her was a man with silver hair and dark eyes. The man was of average height and he had pale skin. She hadn't even noticed him. The man sat down and smiled at her.

'' You are definately one of most beautiful girls that I have ever laid my eyes on.'' Juvia gave him a small smile.

'' Thank you. Juvia doesn't mean to be rude but, why are talking to her?''

''I'm talking to you because I saw you crying. I couldn't just leave someone like you to be all depressed. Would you mind telling me what's wrong?'' Normally Juvia would say no and say that he was being noisy, but she was just too depressed.

''Juvia had a fight with her boyfriend. He said that we should take some time off from each other. It was our one year anniversary to.'' Juvia said.

''Oh, well I'm sory to hear that. Maybe I can cheer you up? I think that you could use a really good laugh right now.'' Juvia thought about it. ' Juvia really doesn't want to go home and be by herself again. But then again this man could be some physcopath or something.' Juvia looked at the man sitting in front of her. ' He doesn't look crazy. Oh what the hell.'

''Okay. Juvia will go with you. But you aren't going to try and kidnapp her right?'' The man looked appalled by Juvia's question.

''Kidnapp you? Of course not. I'm not one of those people you see on the news. I just want to cheer you up.'' Juvia smiled.

''Well that is very kind of you. Not everyone will do that.'' The man smirked.

''Well, I'm not like everyone else. I'm Lyon Vastia. And your name is Juvia right.?'' Juvia's eyes widen in shock.

''Have we met before?'' she asked. Lyon looked confused.

'' I don't think so. I would remember meeting a girl as pretty as you are.'' Juvia's cheeks turned pink.

''But then how do you know Juvia's name?'' she asked. Lyon started to laugh.

''It's because you talk in third person silly. And you just told me your name right now.'' Lyon said while trying to control his laughter. And Juvia didn't know why, but she began to laugh as well.

''See? You look so much better when you're happy. Now shall we get going?'' Juvia nodded and together the two of them walked out of the cafe.

Lyon had taken Juvia to the aquarium. It was so nice to see the different types of fish. The tropical fish were beautiful and colorful. Juvia suddenly stopped. She had just saw a fish that was just absolutely beautiful. The scales of the fish was mostly lavender with the tips of its fins taking on a darker shade of purple. There was also little patches of lime green and red on the fish's face and fins. Lyon noticed that Juvia had stopped walking. He slowly walked up and stood next to her. Juvia did not take her eyes off of the fish.

''You like that fish?'' Lyon asked. Juvia nodded.

''Well you certainly have good taste. C'mon there are more fish to see.'' Juvia looked at the fish one more time before she followed Lyon. They were walking beside each other, admiring the beauty of all the different fishes in the aquarium. It was silent between them. At some point Juvia decided that the silence was enough.

''So, what does Lyon-san do for a living?'' she asked.

''I'm a doctor.'' Lyon said. Juvia's face lit up.

''Really? Juvia is a doctor too! Well , a doctor of animals. Juvia is a vet.''

''Oh? Well I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. You look like an animal lover.'' Juvia giggled.

''So, is there anything that you specialize in? Like oncology or something?''

''I specialize in orthopedics. So I have to deal with a lot of broken bones. A lot of my patients are kids that play sports.'' Lyon said.

''Oh, that must be nice. Do you work in a hospital?'' Juvia asked. Lyon shook his head.

''No. I own my own office. Now how about we go see some more fish Juvia-chan.'' Juvia blushed.

''J-Juvia-chan? W-Why is Lyon-san calling Juvia Juvia-chan?'' Lyon chucked.

''I'm calling you Juvia-chan because I think it's cute.'' Juvia huffed and looked away.

''Well Juvia doesn't like it. So don't call her Juvia-chan.'' Lyon looked amused.

''Alright, I won't call you Juvia-chan.'' Juvia nodded and the two of them began walking again. After looking at a few fish tanks, Lyon stopped walking and turned to her.

''Why did you agree to come here with me? I could have wanted to kill you. Or I could have been a rapist. Is there a reason why you decided to come with me?'' Juvia was silent. She didn't even know herself why she had agreed to come. Lyon was a complete stranger and he could have done something terrible to her. Juvia sighed.

'' Juvia doesn't know why she came. Maybe she decided to go with you because she wasn't ready to go home yet. Also, Lyon-san seemed nice enough so why not except? Besides, Juvia doesn't think that you would hurt someone. '' Juvia said. It was the only answer she could think of.

''Thank you for saying that. You know, I also went through a bad break up.'' Lyon said.

''Really?'' Juvia asked. They had stopped in front of this large fish tank. Juvia was fasinated by it. ' To think that all these different types of fish could co- exist peacefully.' she thought. Lyon's voice snapped her out of her thoughts.

'' Yeah. I had a girlfriend. We dated for almost 3 years but then we got into this huge fight. After that we broke up.'' Lyon spoke. He had this faraway look in his eyes.

''How did you handle it?'' Juvia asked.

''I spent a lot of time at work and with my friends. I didn't like to come home because there was so many memories that I didn't want to deal with. But eventually I got over it.'' Juvia was midly surprised at how open Lyon was being.

''Did you ever date anyone else after you broke up?'' Lyon, who had been looking at the fish tank since they started this conversation, glanced at Juvia before he turned his attention back to the fish tank.

''No. But she did. Less than six months later I found out that she was already dating someone else.'' Lyon said and Juvia couldn't help but feel sorry for him. If she had found out that Gray had moved on with someone else after they broke up, then she would have been heart broken. ' Juvia wonders how Lyon must have felt. Just talking about this must bring up some bad memories.'

''Juvia is sorry.'' she mumbled. Lyon was confused for a second.

''What are you sorry for?'' he asked.

''Juvia feels bad for Lyon-san. It must have been very hard for you.'' Lyon smiled.

''You don't have to feel sorry for me. It happened over a year ago. I'm over it. At first I was angry and hurt but I have gotten over it.'' Lyon said. After that they didn't say much. They just walked around, staring at the tanks full of fish. After a while Lyon spoke up.

''Do you want to go to the park? I have about 30 minutes before I have to go back to the office.'' Juvia thought about it. ' Juvia doesn't have anything better to do so why not.' Juvia nodded.

''Okay.'' she said. Lyon grinned.

''Then lets go.'' Together they walked out of the aquarium and headed to the park. When they reached the park, Lyon had bought Juvia ice cream and they sat down and talked. Juvia even opened up to Lyon a little. Lyon had been doing most of the talking though. He told her about some of the patients that he had. Some of the stuff he told her was pretty funny. At some point Lyon looked at his watch and sighed.

''I should probably get going now.'' he said. Juvia frowned a little. She was actually having a good time.

''That's a shame. Juvia was having a good time talking to Lyon-san.'' Lyon smiled.

''Yeah, well I had a good time also. ''he stood up and Juvia stood up as well.

''Oh, I almost forgot to ask you. Did I manage to cheer you up?''Juvia nodded.

''Yes. Juvia feels better now. Thank you Lyon-san.''

''There is no need to thank me. It was nice to be in the presence of such a pretty girl.'' Juvia blushed.

''Stop it.'' she said. Lyon chucked before he handed her a card.

''It's my business card. It's one of my special cards that has my phone number on it. You can call me anytime you want. And you know, if you ever break a bone just let me know.'' Juvia giggled.

'' Juvia will make sure to call Lyon-san if she ever did break something. But lets hope that that doesn't happen.'' Lyon smirked.

''Of course. Well I'll see you around Juvia-chan.'' Juvia scowled.

''Don't call Juvia that!'' she shouted after his retreating figure. But even she couldn't resist laughing. She turned around and began walking home. Not only had she made a new friend, but now she felt a little better after what happened with Gray. But only a little.

Chapter 2 is complete. And Lyon's ex was Sherry. And in later chapters I'll have Juvia start calling Lyon Lyon-sama instead of Lyon-san.

Please read and review.

See you all next time!
