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

17: Loss of Love

________________________________

*Okay!! So for anyone reading this chapter, I'd like to give you a little heads up! The italicized words represent the inner Juvia, the one that loves Gray. The regular text is the current Juvia that is being a bitch. When her dialogue changes from regular text to italicized text, the inner Juvia is finishing the sentence. Therefore it be said with more emotion. And just to let you know. Not everything italicized is from the inner Juvia. It may just be enhancements on words. If you have any questions just ask! And get ready, this chapter IS GONNA BE A DOOZY!!*

*Juvia's POV*

This is ridiculous, the last thing I wanted to do today was to spend my evening with that numbskull Gary.
But Juvia loves Gray-sama.
No I do not! He is a disgrace, that putrid habit of his to remove his clothes is incredibly irritating. I want nothing more than to be as far away from him as possible!
But Mira said Juvia has to spend this evening with Gray-sama. Under the stars.
I'll tell her I won't go!! She cannot make me!
"Juvia? Are you feeling okay?" Lucy asks me. She's standing outside of my tent and peeking in from the door. I get up off of the floor and kick over one of my pillows.
"I'm just irritated. Please, leave." I say sharply.
She heaves out a breath and walks away.
Lucy is my love rival but that doesn't mean Juvia should be mean to her!!
It matters not, she is unaware of my current mental state and has no business of knowing. I will keep my personal information to myself.
I'm going to tell Mirajane.
No!
Yes! You cannot stop me. I have made up my mind.
I burst out of my tent and stride towards Mira. She is quietly sitting at a picnic table, looking at a clipboard of papers. She looks unfocused and flustered. I wonder what's up with her?
Forget about it, I don't care.
How can you be so heartless?!
After the lightning DragonSlayer broke Gajeels hand, Levy, Gajeel, and the black exceed went to the medical building a couple miles out. Wendy was too paranoid to try to heal him in his condition. Poor girl. Anyway, I solidly plant my feet in front of her an place my hand on my hip.
Do you have to be so sassy about it?
Of course I do. I need to make a statement don't I?
Ughhhh
Mirajane looks up at me and gives a tiny smile.
"Mirajane. I refuse to partake in this activity this evening with Garrrraaay.. Gray. Ugh! I do not like being around him, and insist you dismiss me from my involvement with him!" I say stubbornly, glaring down at her.
Do not sway my speech, what do I care if I don't pronounce his name correctly?!
You do not desecrate the name of my love.
She sets down her pen and looks back up.
"Oh Juvia, why so negative all of a sudden? You're normally all cherry and positive. I hope you're feeling alright. I'm sorry to tell you this... But there is no possible way that you can weasel out of this. I forbid you to exclude yourself. You will participate in this and spend the required time with Gray. Wether you like it or not." She says with a hint of darkness.
Yes!!! My beloved, we will not be separated!!
Damn. She's not letting me out.
"You're despicable, I will not enjoys this and you know it." I sneer.
Mira closes her eyes, shakes her head and smiles.
"You're so clueless... Pack your things, you will go down to the field in ten minuets. And don't doubt yourself, I know you'll have a fun time... Juvia."
She must've been speaking to me!!! She knows I'm still here! Bless you Mirajane!!
I scoff and turn to walk away. How childish of her to force me into something I evidently do NOT WANT TO DO. I stomp off to my tent and kick my pillow again.
"Errrghh!!! This isn't fair!!! What have I done to deserve this?!" I fall to my knees and cup my face in my hands. I can't do this.
Juvia can do this. It's only one night. Although I would like to be with my beloved more, I have no control. This mental state is proving to be difficult. But I will win. Gray and I will be together!!
It is only one night. And not even a full night. I will get through this. Gray may not live to see the end of it, but I can at least reign supreme. I know, I'll just ignore him the entire time. Yeah! Pretend he isn't even there, and that I was simply out on a stroll and sat to admire the stars.
Don't think it'll be that easy.
Of course it will!
I grab my blanket and a small pillow, and exit my tent. Mira stalks from a whiles away, probably watching for the Ice-Maker. It was getting pretty dark out, the fire in the circle of rocks illuminated brightly. Many of the wizards sat in camping chairs and talked. I looked at them not. I simply turned and strode down the footpath leading to the field. It's now or never.
My beloved I cannot wait until I lay my eyes upon your beautiful face!
Oh geeze.
I enter the clearing, a large tree stands toward the center. Lights hang from the branches and emanate a gentle glow within the area.
OHH!! How romantic!!!
I walk down the slope of the hill and up to the blanket laid out on the grass by the trunk. Gray sits with his legs crossed, staring at the sky. He turns his gaze and lands his eyes on me.
"Good evening- MY BELOVE-" I slam my hands over my mouth.
How dare you!!! I said I will not be interrupted!!
My love is here! And he gazed so passionately at me!!
That's what you think..

He looks as if he might run away.
And to think I can't even fully prevent myself from these sudden outburst! How ridiculous.
He's kinda slumped over, he slowly sits up and straitens his back. A panicked look on his face, and also confused as to what just happened.
"U-um.. Hi." He stutters.
I put my hands down and pick up my blanket and pillow.
Just ignore him!!
"Hmph." I burst.
I take a seat on the farthest part of the blanket, away from Gray.
Clutching my pillow in my arms, I lay the blanket across my legs and silently stare strait.
Gray, please comfort me!!
He will do no such thing, he's far too afraid of me.
I believe in him!! Watch this you savage!!!
My arm releases from around the pillow and gently lies on my leg, followed by my other arm, I presume a more relaxed posture. They move down and press against the ground. My body moves up and I scoot over closer towards him.
Stop it you wretch!!
My head turns to the left, met by the eyes of the Ice-Maker.
STOP!!
GRAY MY LOVE!!!
Our eyes lock, he looks hopefully at me.
"Gray, my dearest, please. Help me." I say to him.
He furrows his eyebrows and concern spreads across his face.
"What? Juvia, what's wrong? Are you okay?"
You will regret this!
He now knows, you have no way to prevent it.
I will not permit this!!
I jerk my head forcefully away, and regain a neutral facial expression.
"I'm fine." I say forcefully.
He backs off and sighs.
"What's your problem with me? Why do you hate me?" He says.
I raise an eyebrow and turn my head slightly.
Good question.
"You sir, are pitifully ignorant and absolutely clueless as to anything that's going on."
"What are you talking about? I know exactly what's going on! It's obvious that you have some dark and spiteful hate directed towards me, I'm just wondering why you're acting like this all of a sudden!"
I put my hand up to my forehead.
He's useless!
"Have you any idea how long I've waited?! How long!? Every day, every single day from the moment I met you. And not once, not once! Have you ever so much as though of how I'm feeling!!"
You're making him angry.
He's getting upset. Gray-sama..
He stands up and takes off his shirt.
"Really! At a time like this?!? You have no decency, none whatsoever!"
He's not even mentally aware of it. Normally I would be crying with joy, but he's only taken it off out of anger.
"You know what! I don't even care, I'm keeping my shirt off. And the real Juvia would normally be excited beyond belief. The real Juvia would be happy! The REAL Juvia would try to get my attention!! THE REAL JUVIA WOULD LIKE ME!" He yells in rage.
I can feel tears.
G-Gray... no...I-I'm still here...

I whip the pillow away in anger, stand on my feet, and throw my arms into the air. The tears stream down my cheeks.
"WELL MAYBE THE REAL JUVIA JUST WANTED YOU TO LIKE HER!!!!" I scream.
And before I could even think, my hands were curled into fists and my arms slamming into Gray's chest. My raw emotion wouldn't allow me enough strength to actually hurt him, but I still was trying to get him to feel something. He just took the punches, stared down at me and was silent.
"S-stupid!! You don't know!!" I yell at him.
His body was so tense, his veins popped out of his arms, his hands balled into fists and pulsing.
I give him a last pathetic punch, and try to push him away, but he catches both of my wrists and holds strong.
"Juvia.." He says in the darkest tone I've ever heard him speak in.
"Let go of me!! You insignificant heartless-" I struggle to get out of his grip and lose my balance. We both are sent tumbling down the hill and into the tall grass.
And by the heavens grace, he happens to land on top of me- of course.
I try to roll out of his way and leave, but he puts an arm down and stops me. My face is wet with tears, and my body aching.
....G-Gray...
I look up to see him glowering at me. His facial expression dark, sad, and... I guess.. sympathetic.
"Get off of me!" I yell.
"Juvia! Listen to me!" He pleads. He grabs both of my arms and pins them down.
I can't take this.
Leave.
Get away from him.
He doesn't understand.
He will never understand.

"Get! Off! Me!!!" I scream, prying my arms away and pushing him off. I stand up and run. To where? I don't know. I don't dare look back and I don't answer his yells for me to stop.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING!! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, HE WAS TRYING TO-

"JUST SHUT UP!!! I CAN'T DO THIS! I'M DONE!!" I scream aloud.
I run through the bushes and trees, tripping over logs and branches. It's dark out, I can't see anything. My mangled sobs sound all around me. I can't think, I can't hear. My foot makes contact with something and I'm sprawling onto the ground, sticks stabbing at me, rocks bruising me, and mud grinding against my skin. I try to get up, my arms are too weak. I lay on the forest floor, sobbing my heart out.

Mirajane lied to me...

I shut my eyes, and they don't open again until next morning.
