Broken Then Fixed: Gruvia

Chapter 7:

"Hey Juvia, what are you doing?" Levy asked.

"I was just scrolling YouTube after checking my Wattpad account. Still not many views on my story, but I only just started so it's expected. Plus I know that two of the views on every chapter are you guys." I said, laughing awkwardly. 

Let me explain. My other Wattpad account had a story that didn't have many views. Last time I checked, I was at 53 views, so yeah, not that many. I was an okay writer when it came to making up a story. I've been told in the comments for my nonfiction story that I was an excellent writer, so I guess I am good at writing when the plot actually happens to me. That's the best way to be descriptive, after all. You can remember things and describe them more clearly when you actually experience it. 

They nodded. "Don't worry. You've only just started, and over 50 views is great, especially since you've only published the first chapter a month ago! You're story is coming along fine!" Levy said, giving me a thumbs up. They helped me scroll on YouTube some more, and eventually Lucy told me about this channel that does funny skits. A lot of the skits have to do with and revolve around being Latina, and it's hilarious to watch. We were watching this one called "Parent Teacher Conference," and all of the parents were acting just like their kids. The skit started with the teacher calling all of the kids brats. We laughed when one of the dads shot a tranquilizer dart at the teacher, making her instantly fall asleep and fall sideways on the ground.

Unfortunately the video ended, and Levy and Lucy had to do what they originally came to the library to do. Lucy apparently accepted to be Natsu's tutor in math, so Levy was helping Lucy pick out textbooks for their first lesson, which was after school today. I wiggled my eyebrows at her and told her to tell me how it went afterwards. She blushed crimson and left with Levy. I chuckled at her reaction and began scrolling YouTube again, looking for more of those skits. 

I heard more footsteps, and turned around thinking that the girls forgot a book, but came face to face with who was beginning to be my worst enemy, Lyon fricking Bastia. I immediately frowned at him, and turned back around to continue scrolling through the skits. He grabbed the back of my chair and turning it around, with me in it. It didn't really help that I was in an office chair. Now that I think about it, why does this school even have office chairs in the library? It was odd, but they were comfy so I didn't mind it much. Right now I did. I sighed, knowing I couldn't get out of this one. 

"What, Lyon?" I said, obviously annoyed.

He frowned. "Can't I see what my girlfriend is doing alone during lunch?" He asked innocently, putting his hands up.

I glared at him. "You know damn well I am not your girlfriend. We aren't even friends."

"Ouch." He said, amused.

I took a quick glance around the library to see if Miss Mira was still here. And wow, what luck, she wasn't.

"Release him and I might consider not hating you for eternity." I growled at him.

He pouted. "Aw, but if I do that then the game will be over. I like a nice long game." He said.

I stood up suddenly. "Lyon! This is not a game!" I shouted. I lowered my voice, aware that Miss Mira would be back any second now. "We are playing with lives here." I said. I tried to stay calm, even though his mere presence was fueling my anger.

"Sweet Juvia, if I let him go, he will run to the police and explain exactly how he went missing. I would go to jail, lower my chance at getting into my dream university and job, and lose my chance to be by your side forever. I'd rather not risk any of that, especially that last part." He said, smirking.

I remained calm, although on the inside I was fuming. "You already lowered your chance with being by my side forever, and if you release him now, then I will make sure you will get a shorter sentence." I explained, trying to strike a deal.

He just laughed his haunting laugh and shook his head. "In due time, Juvia. In due time I will get exactly what I want." With that, he walked away, leaving me puzzled and furious. I narrowed my eyes at him. "And in due time I will get my brother back, you son of a- " The slam of the library door cut me off. I usually didn't curse often, but that guy made my blood boil. I jumped at the sound of the warning bell, which signaled that lunch was almost over and to start getting ready for 4th period. I logged off of my laptop and powered it off. I picked up my water bottle and threw it away, and walked towards the exit of the library, with my bag and laptop in hand. I gave my goodbye to Miss Mira, who had come back when the bell sounded. On my way out, I stopped in front of the double doors leading to the now busy and noisy hallway. I sighed.

"Why are you always everywhere." I whispered. "Don't talk to anyone about this, understand?" 

I walked out before he could respond. Towards the end of the conversation between me and Lyon, when he was walking out to be exact, I had seen a flash of the raven hair I loved so much behind a bookshelf. Gray just has to be everywhere, doesn't he? I sighed, knowing I couldn't do much about it. I just have to assume he caught the whole conversation on video. I needed to get Jamie out of this mess fast, before Lyon finds out about the recordings.
