Juvia Lockser felt her heart pounding strong in her chest. She had been waiting for the day Gray Fullbuster would return from his mission for days. She couldn't even tell how much she missed seeing him on the balcony in the apartment across hers every morning. She opened the front door of her own apartment and immediately glanced at the outside area of it, noticing there was something on the floor. As she walked towards it, she felt a pain through her heart, for not seeing him yet. Juvia bent down and picked up what seemed to be a yellow paper plane. She picked it up and opened it. Her heart began beating faster and faster as she unfolded the paper. She could barely control her smile while reading its content and ran to the edge of her balcony as soon as she finished. The smile on her face immediately faded when she realized there was no one around. That he wasn't around. About two minutes later, when she returned inside, Gray walked out of where he had been hiding – and watching her – the whole time. He was holding a few colored papers in his left hand.
Hours later, Gray finally arrived at his house. He let himself fall on the couch and watched some TV. At some point, he glanced at the window and saw something outside it. He jumped out of the sofa, rushing to it. A smile appeared on his lips when he saw it was a paper plane. She had written one and threw it towards his apartment. Still smiling, he returned inside.

A few days had gone by and Juvia couldn't help but feel a little upset because she didn't get any other paper planes. But then again, she hasn't sent any as well. She was making her way to a table at the bar when something came flying and landed on her seat. She immediately put her glass on the table and picked the light yellow paper plane, unfolding it right away. Her heart was full of love and she pressed the letter against her chest.
"Hey, Juvia." Lisanna approached her, with a large smile on her face. "Is that a letter from a secret admirer?"
"It's from my lovely Gray." Juvia said excitedly and pressed the letter tighter against her chest, crushing the paper a little. "Juvia loves it very much."
"I can tell." The other woman smiled wider. "You really like him, don't you?"
"Juvia does!" She exclaimed and started looking around, searching for him. "I can't find my Gray! He's not here."
"I saw him leaving. Maybe if you hurry, you can catch him."
"Juvia is out." She stormed out of the bar, desperately looking for the object of her affection.
Juvia looked all around herself when she walked outside, her heart pounding and aching at the mere thought of not finding her favorite person. Desperation taking over her, as well as the tears in her eyes, until another paper plane landed on her feet. Her heart beating even faster as she bent down and picked up. Her eyes were fixated on the light blue paper in her hands, but she could still see a pair of legs walking out from a house and stopping some meters away from her. She would recognize them anywhere. A large smile appeared on her face even before she locked eyes with him. She briefly felt breathless as she stared at his bare chest, which she adored.
"My lovely Gray! Juvia missed you so much!" She ran to him, closing their rather long distance. "Are you okay? Did you get hurt on this mission? You look so pale! Juvia will take care of you."
"I'm fine." He assured her. "It was an exhausting mission, but everything went fine. I'm here now."
"Juvia is so happy!" She squealed, in complete bliss.
"So do you want to get it on?"
"Get it on?" She repeated, her cheeks blushing heavily and affection overwhelming her. And soon, she passed out.
"Juvia, are you okay?" Gray held her in his arms, shaking her lightly. "Juvia, wake up."
The blue haired woman slowly opened her eyes and her whole face went red with their proximity. Never had she ever stayed so close to his chest before, let alone being held by him.
"Juvia is not fine." She managed to say, despite all the feelings their proximity brought to her.
"You're not gonna pass out again, are you?"
"No." Though she felt like she could easily do it again, due to how inebriating his scent was. She wondered what it was of.
"So, you still haven't answered my question." He offered her his hand and they both stood up. Juvia couldn't help but rejoice on the fact she was actually holding his hand. It felt so soft and warm. "Do you want to get it on?"
"Uh…Juviawouldloveto." The words came out of her mouth altogether, due to how nervous she was with such offer.
"Sorry, I don't think I heard you." Gray said in a light tone, though deep down he did hear what she said.
"Juvia would love to." She said it again, more slowly this time.
"Great." He curled his fingers around her palm and brought both their hands down. "Also, you still haven't read the last paper plane."
"Oh." Juvia looked down to the paper she was still holding in her right hand and let go of him to undo the plane. Her eyes went wide while she silently read it, and her cheeks blushed violently. "Gray." She looked up at him. "Did you really mean that?"
"Of course I did." He looked down at her. "All this time I was away made me think 'why not'? And it felt good. It felt right."
She looked at his hand stretched at her for a moment and then into his eyes again.
"So what do you say?"
A warm smile appeared on her lips as she took it. "I say that's all I've ever wanted."
