Complications For Me & You (Gruvia)

Ch. 6

The next day, Gray was on his way to Juvia's place to pick her up for their mission. He sighed, seeing his breath in the air from being so cold. Meanwhile, Juvia had just woken up, she turned over, and rose out of bed to go shower. Juvia undressed and grabbed the fluffiest towel she could find.

"Juvia needs to be extra clean and beautiful today!" she said aloud to herself.

The water mage wrapped her naked body in her towel and was about to walk in the shower when she felt a cold wind. Juvia looked around to see her window had flown open. Juvia reached out to close the window when suddenly a hand gripped her window. She slightly screamed until she saw it was Cana.

"Cana? What're you doing here?" Juvia asked her fellow Fairy Tail member.

Cana didn't respond but with a hiccup, she rose her body up and held an empty bottle of liquor.

Cana pointed at Juvia with red in her cheeks,
"Haha...Juvia hey! Mind if I crash here?"

Juvia was a little flustered as Cana fell through the window and into Juvia's apartment.

"Ah! Cana!" Juvia paniked as she was now in her apartment.

Cana stood up lightly and waddled over to Juvia.

"Cana. You're drunk," Juvia tried telling the stubborn alcoholic.

"As if I would get drunk like...this-" Cana fell over on top of Juvia.

Juvia slightly sighed as she tucked her towel in and picked up Cana.

"You can rest on Juvia's couch okay," she told the unconscious drunk.

She plopped Cana on the couch and covered her in blankets. Juvia raised up her towel and headed into the bathroom for her shower, leaving the door unlocked for Gray.

After awhile, Gray was finally at Juvia's door, knocking on it.

"Juvia?"

Juvia could not hear him for she was showering in the bathroom.

Gray sighed and let himself in as he saw someone bundled up in a blanket on the couch.

"Seriously? She's still sleeping?"

Gray walked over and tapped her,
"Hey, Juvia."

To his surprise a liquor bottle fell out of the blanket and rolled across the floor.

"Juvia!"

Gray got worried until he sees Cana shoot up from the blanket,
"Ow! Dammit Gray! Why are you being so loud?"

"Cana? What the hell are you doing here?"
Gray asked her.

"I could ask you the same thing pretty boy."

"Where's Juvia then?" Gray questioned.

"Hell I don't know! Now let me go back to sleep..." Cana answered as she slowly rolled over and snuggled deeper into the blankets.

Suddenly a door slammed open and Juvia was in a bath towel. Gray turned and saw Juvia, feeling his face turn red.

"Ah! Gray-sama!" Juvia squealed.

She held her hands up and suddenly her towel slid off her nude body. Juvia quickly reacted and bent down to cover her chest. Gray panicked as blood shot out of his nose from the sight of the naked rainwoman.

Juvia was slightly embarrassed and hurried across to her room to get her clothes on,
"Juvia didn't know Gray-sama was coming this early! Why didn't Cana tell him I was showering?"

As Gray laid there on the ground with a little bit of shock in his eyes, Cana was busting out laughing on the couch,
"Oh man! I forgot she was in there. Well did you at least like what you saw?"

Gray turned red as he proudly stood up and faced the wall.

"Psh please." he continued, wiping the blood off from under his nose.

Juvia quickly got ready and reopened the door to her room to face Gray. She was so excited to be going on a quest alone with her beloved Gray-sama,

"It'll be just Gray-sama and Juvia! Kyaaa! Juvia can't wait!!"

Juvia and Gray walked together to the guild with melted snow still covering the ground.

"Gray-sama, what is this quest going to be about?" Juvia asked him.

"Deliora."

"The demon who attacked Bargo in the North?!" Juvia asked in surprise.

"Yea. Do you know why Gramps told me to finish the job? He challenged me to a rematch," he answered.

"Rematch? What do you mean Gray-sama-" Juvia was interrupted as Gray opened the door.

"It doesn't matter, " Gray retorted

Gray and Juvia went to Makarov's office as he sat in his chair.

"Now listen you two, this quest will not be easy, even if you both are strong. This is a demon from the Book of Zeref we are talking about," Makarov said.

"Where is he?" Gray asked the old guild master.

Mavis sat atop the front desk and looked at Gray closely,

"We are unsure where he is, but i have an idea."

"An idea?"

"I felt a strong surge of magical energy towards the North, where your village used to be. I suppose he is waiting for you there," Mavis said.

"I guess we will have to catch a train to the closest city and walk the rest of the way on foot," Gray sighed.

"I do not think it would be wise to take public transportation. If Deliora manages to even find you, you wouldn't want to endanger the community," Mavis reasoned with them.

"Juvia doesn't mind when it's with Gray-sama!" Juvia said trying to be positive.

"Then it's settled. When would you want to head out?" Makarov said.

"Juvia and I will head out now, I don't wanna waste any time. I'm taking this bastard down," Gray replied.

Juvia slightly grinned as they both left his office.

Gray stuffed his hands in his pockets,
"Sorry about leaving so early."

"No no. Juvia understands. I'll go pack now!"

"Meet me back here in an hour," Gray asked of her.

"Sure thing Gray-sama!" Juvia agreed.

"Wait Juvia," Gray called.

She turned around.

"Are you sure you wanna go with me? I don't want to-" Gray paused as he saw Juvia smile brightly at him.

"Juvia will go anywhere with Gray-sama, no matter what..."

Gray nodded with a blush as Juvia left out the doors of the guild hall to go and get ready at her apartment for the long journey that lied ahead.
