Gray's POV
"Get off of me," I heard Juvia speak. That's when I realized I was on top of her.
I stood up seeing Juvia's glare. I blushed a little.
"Sorry about that," I said.
"What are you doing here?," she asked as she sat up.
I offered my hand, but she stood up on her own.
"Nothing," I replied not wanting to sound like a stalker.
"Can you do nothing at home? If not I'll be going," Juvia said before walking out.
Juvia's POV
As I was about to stomp off Gray grabbed my wrist. I winced a little as my old cuts were still healing.
"Let go," I said.
I began to notice the crowd of people more. My heart began to race. I felt so alone. I flinched thinking he was going to hurt me. It felt like I was at school. All the hate and the hurt. I couldn't breathe. I automatically knew what this feeling was. It was another panic attack.
I pulled my arm out of his grip and took off running. There was no way I would let anyone see me like this. I had to hide.
"You're just an ugly nobody. You cheated on your boyfriend. What a wannabe," was all I could hear.
I ran out of the carnival towards the park. I remembered going there all the time when I was younger.
Clouds began to appear above me. It began to rain.
When I stopped running I didn't see anyone near by. I sat down on the park bench.
I covered my ears whispering "stop stop stop."
I felt as if I was going crazy. I felt so miserable and lost. I felt so in danger and alone.
I pulled my knees to my chest and tried to hide my face.
My tears mixed with the rain as I tried to calm myself down.
Gray's POV
I saw her flinch as I touched her. Oh what did I do to her.
Before I knew it she was taking off. Dark clouds began to appear from no where. The air became colder.
I ran after her scared of hurting her again. I didn't want her to be alone anymore. She just didn't have to be alone.
I continued running and running. I asked people if they saw her and I just kept running.
I finally saw her on that old wooden park bench. My heart felt like it was being stabbed repeatedly.
I sat next to her taking off my jacket. I placed it over her shoulders.
"You'll catch a cold if you stay out like this," I said.
She glanced at me and wiped her face. She nodded looking at the floor.
It was weird how beautiful she looked. I just wanted to see her smile.
We stayed silent for a minute just watching the rain pour itself among the park.
"I want to help you," I blurted trying to get rid of the silence.
She looked at me and then back to the ground.
"Are you just trying to help me for yourself or me," she whispered.
"What do you mean by that?," I asked.
"Are you only doing it for pity? To make yourself feel better," she said. I could hear sadness in her voice.
I began thinking to myself. Was I? Was I just trying to make myself feel better.
Of course being an impulsive idiot I immediately blurted "No it's just I've hurt you so much and I feel so guilty."
She seemed so hurt by my response.
"Oh so you feel guilty and you do want to feel better," she said standing up.
She sounded so hurt. I hear her pain.
"I should go," Juvia said crossing her arms and hugging herself and running off again.
"Wait Juvia. I didn't mean that," I began to say, but by them time I knew what to say she was gone. I began to walk back to the carnival with my hands in my pockets.
