Fairy Tail Camping (Nalu, Gale, Gruvia, Jerza, Miraxus, ect)

8: Cold Hands

*Gray Fullbuster's POV*

"Ice-make, SHEILD!"
"Gray-sama!!!"
"Ughhhhhhhh."
"Someone pleaseeee, get her away from mee."
This is getting very annoying. Juvia has been following me, stalking me, and freaking me out. And now, she's ATTACKING ME, YELLING AT ME, AND SHE WON'T GO AWAY.
I put a hand to my forehead. I'm still in the campsite, Mirajane said that I can't go on the canoeing trip because Juvia has to stay here. I tried to tell her that Juvia would be fine, and it be better if we didnt take her, but she just turned around and fricken soul-death-glared at me and said, "Stay. With. Your. Partner." So here I am. Trying to keep this phsyco away from me.
"Master how long did you say the effects could last????" I ask. He's sitting on top of a picnic table drinking a bottle of booze.
"Did she eat a lot of those beeeerries?" He asks in a slur.
"I don't know, she had a little handful. But I don't think she ate too many." I say from inside my circle of ice shields. Juvia had resorted to sitting on the ground in front of them, staring at me.
"Ughhhh, I don't want this to last much longer.." I groan.
"Mirajane said that that canoeeeeing trip was supposed to be a bonding activity right?" Master says.
"Yeah, I guess."
"And you couldn't go, am I right?"
"Yeah. So..?" Master slams his bottle on the table.
"Then do some bonding!!" He shouts.
I shake my head and sigh.
"Master you're drunk." I say.
"Do it! I want all of my children in Fairy Tail to be friendsss. Take down your shields, talk to her."
I turn to look at Juvia, she has a frown on her face and she's looking around, kinda confused.
"What..? I don't remember..?" She says quietly.
The effects of the berries must have worn off!!!! Yeeeeeess.
"Master what's happening? Where am I?" She asks. Master hiccups and points to me.
"Why don't you ask him?" She turns and gives me a confused look.
"G-Garson...? Gary.. No no, ummm.... Gray right?" She says looking up at me.
Oh my god what's happening?
"Yeah, Juvia are you alright?" I ask, raising an eyebrow. She closes her eye tight then slowly opens them.
"Yeah, I just can't remember how... Or when..." She trails off, looking around. She stops and takes a look at the circle of ice around me, gazeing at the scratches and gashes. Then she looks at her hands, they were scratched up quite a bit, the tips of her fingers were red and turning blue.
"D-did I-I do this?" She asks.
She doesn't remember?!
"Master what's going on? Why can't she remember?" I ask.
He has his hand on his chin, apparently thinking.
"I've heard of this. The effects of the berries can induce powerful changes in the brainnnn. Although they normally don't last long." He says.
Then what am I supposed to do? Master's drunk, everyone else is off on canoeing trips, and I'm stuck here with Juvia!
"Ughhhh!!" I push my palms against my ears.
"Are you alright?" Juvia asks.
I look up and she's pressing her hands together trying to warm them.
"Just fine." I snarl. She looks insulted.
"I'm sorry is there anything I can do to help?" She asks quietly.
"Yeah, go away. You've been driving me out of my mind for the last hour!!!" I yell. Juvia's face falls and she looks at her hands again, they were shaking badly.
"I'm sorry...I can't remember... What happened to my hands..? They hurt, I-I can't feel my fingers! Master h-help!"

She seriously doesn't remember??? I need to do something. But what if she turns crazy again. I look at her, she tries standing, her legs pretty beaten looking. They buckle and she falls.
"Juvia!" I dissipate all of the shields and I'm at her side.
My inner voice screams inside my head. What are you doing??? Get away she's insane!!!

She has tears in her eyes.

"I can't feel my legs, my hands.... Gray what's happening?" She whispers.
"Don't move, I'll help. Just relax. I'm sorry I said that to you, I didn't realize you can't remember..." I say, slipping a hand behind her back.
I tilt her forewords and slip my other arm under her knees and gently lift her up.
"Thank you." She says.

Okay so what now??!? I have no idea how to fix this!!! Stupid!!! I don't know the first thing about medical crap. I mean, I know she needs to rest, but she put like seven thousand locks on her tent. How the heck am I supposed to get her in there?! Wait a second. We're the only two here, (other than our drunk Master) and I can't get into her tent... That means she's going to have to lie down in mine. Ughhhh.
I walk over to my black and blue tent, skillfully unzip the door with several of my toes, (because I'm just that amazing.) and set her on the air-mattress.
"Gray I-"
"Go to sleep, you need to regain your strength. Ill tell you what happened when you wake up." I tell her. I drape the only blanket I own onto her, pull off both of her boots, and push the door open to go back out, but cold fingers catch my left wrist.
"Don't leave. I want to you be here." She says softly.
I sigh.
"Fine. It's not like I can leave anyway."
I plop down on the edge of the mattress and lean my head back on the wall of the tent.

So the berries wore off, but now she can't remember anything?!?? At least she's acting a little more normal now, better than her stalking me. But then again, I wonder if she'll ever actually go back to her regular self. Not that this version is bad, her not going out of her way to be crazy about me is pretty nice, I just can't really get it out of my head that she forGOT MY NAME. REALLY. I'm actually feeling a little insulted right now. But anyway, this whole camping thing has been a nightmare so far. I just want to go back to the Guild and go on a job.

I feel a slight warmth on the bottom of my back. Juviaaaa.
Her entire foot was pressed against my back. I turn and grab her ankle and her leg jerks. I drop it and she slowly curls back into a ball. I can't believe she's actually asleep. Her arms and legs pressed together under the blanket. That mess of blue hair was all over her face, carefully I lean inwards and brush the cold strands out of the way. She looked so peaceful. My eyes catch on her hands, they were a dark blue at the fingertips.
"What am I supposed to do?!" I whisper.
Without thinking, I take both of her hands in mine and gently rub them together. If she couldn't warm them maybe I could. Her hands are so smooth, like porcelain.
My hands seem so rugged and different compared to hers. I can feel my cheeks start to get warm. Am I blushing?!? Is this because of J-Juvia?!? No, it couldn't be. It's just because my tent's like 300 degrees, yeah. Having two people inside this little tent can increase the heating rate by a lot. I shut my eyes.
Your just lying to yourself.
Trying not to think, I stay like this for a while, our hands together. Every once in a while, Juvia's hands would tighten around mine, almost like she knew they were there.
And to think that just a half an hour ago, she was trying to attack me. And I was calling her a phsyco and crazy. If she was to hear that now, I think I'd make her cry.... And that would not be good.
I hear rustling from outside, it sounded like footsteps.
"Where are you Gruvia...?"
Oh shit it's Mirajane, what do I do?!? That devil is going to start screaming if she sees this.
I let go of Juvia's hands and slowly stand in the tent. I may not be able to hide from Mira, but I may be able to out-smart her.
Grabbing a belt that I never use, I open the door slightly and throw it as far as I can manage and then wait. I hear it make impact several meters away.
"There you are you hiding-sweet-hearts!!" She shrieks as she bolts after the noise.
Seizing the opportunity, I shoot out of the tent and behind the nearest food carton, rummaging through I grab a thing of frozen peas and try to casually look like I just found it.
"Here you are!" I say purposefully loud. Mira hurdles over to me and heaves in a breath.
"So Gray!! How his Juvia doing with her little berry problem..?" She asks a little too innocently. She's definitely hiding something. I clench the bag and roll my eyes.
"She's fine. The effect wore off and she just can't remember anything, she was beaten after her little rampage so I carried her to my tent." I say.
Mira's face contorts into a look between horror, joy, excitement, and wonder.
"Carried, her, your, tent, she, you..."
She takes in a huge breath.
Oh god.
"15 POINTS GRUVIA!!!" She screams in my face.
"Shut up!! She's sleeping!!" I yell,
"What is this point thing you keep talking about?!? And besides, aren't you supposed to be with Laxus!!" I yell over Mira's deranged wheezing.
She spikes to attention at the sound of Laxus's name.
"I'm over here you dork." Laxus says from behind me. He's sitting at a picnic table, looking at some papers.
"This doesn't bother you?!?" I yell at him, motioning to Mira. He doesn't even look up.
"I don't particularity mind it, I find it rather amusing actually." He says.
"Figures..." I say.
"Mira when's everyone else getting back?" I ask. Her breathing slows a little and she stopped shaking, so that's better.
"The last group was just launched and the first group should almost be here, so I'd give it about another half hour until everyone is back." She says.
"Wait don't you two still have to go?" I ask.
"What?" Laxus says.
"The canoeing thing, you guys still have to go right?"
Mira looks at Laxus then back to me. I give her the eyebrows. She gives me a mad look then turns to Laxus.
"Lets go, we're having a canoeing trip!!" She yells at him.
"Are you serious!?" He stammers.
She grabs his wrist and pulls him down the path.
Oh this is going to be funny.
