EDIT: I added a video on the side and the end of it left me blushing 'cause they were fighting together! >///< I stopped paying attention after that

I watched as he let Juvia hang all over him, usually I hid my intense jealousy by picking fights with other guild members, but I wasn't in the mood. He wore a smile even though it wasn't wholehearted, like something was still missing, almost like he didn't want it 100%. Though I was probably imagining it. My cheeks began to heat up as he shot a small smile at me. My heart was about to burst, so I looked away, my heart still pounding. I went to the job board, and grabbed a request before yelling to Mira, then running out the door.

After getting a better look, I could tell it would be easy, but there was an odd feeling settled in the pit of my stomach. I went to the address printed, and ended up at an old shack on the edge of Magnolia. The job was to help the landowner with some experiment, I guess. The wooden door looked so old and feeble, I almost didn't want to knock. So I put on my idiotic grin, and gently tapped the door. After waiting about five minutes, an eerie looking woman with silver hair, answered the door. Her voice was rough, and scratchy, it almost hurt my ears. She told me to come in, and immediately after entering the cottage-like shack, I was hit with a wave of uneasiness. I asked her about the experiment thingy, and she said I was just going to test a potion before she put it on the market. The knot in my stomach grew. Something wasn't right about this. I smelt the potion before anything else, not noticing the small smirk she was hiding. It smelt like sweets, and it made me dizzy. I asked her what the potion was for, and she said it was "simply an enhancer for magic energy. The side effects would be slight dizziness and/or nausea." I still wasn't sure. She also mentioned that it could temporarily cure sea sickness, and motion sickness. Even with doubt still weighing me down, I went against my instincts, which was probably the worst decision I could've made. 

I used the table to steady myself as I was overcome with dizziness. My vision blurred, and I was swaying back and forth until I dropped to the floor. I took one last glance at the woman, a maniacle grin was plastered on her face, as she peered down at me. My head pounded as I tried to stay awake. The last thing I heard was a hoarse whisper, coming from the woman.

"Mission accomplished."

I knew this wouldn't end well, my body was stiffening, and I could no longer move.

I had one last thought before letting the darkness consume me.

Gray...Help...

Then everything went black...
