Forget the love (FairyTail Fanfiction •Gruvia•)

Bet

"Drip, drip, drop..." Juvia chanted as she kept walking straight to anywhere it led her. "Oi." A raspy voice called out from behind.

Juvia turned to see a man clad in black, iron piercings everyone, and has long spiky black hair. "Who are you?" Juvia asked. The man clicked his tongue out of irritation. "Even you've forgotten bout me huh...." He scratched the back of his neck.

"The name's Gajeel. We used to be the bad guys but we're the good guys now." Gajeel said point a thumb at himself and she notices the Fairy Tail mark on his bicep.

"Are you here to ask Juvia to come back?" Juvia asked.

"Ya want me to?" Gajeel crossed his arms. "It doesn't matter to me if you've forgotten or not. I just wanna clarify some things ya know."

Juvia was silent for a while and finally made up her mind. "Let us go find shelter and Juvia will tell." Gajeel followed behind Juvia and they walked quietly until they found a bridge. They took shelter under it.

Juvia closed her umbrella and set it down. Gajeel leaned on the wall with his arms crossed, "Where do ya plan to go?" He asked right away.

"She doesn't know." Juvia responded right away, "anywhere far from pain." She added.

"Is Fairy Tail a pain then?" Juvia winced at the question. "So you haven't completely forgotten." He snickered.

"I may not have but that doesn't mean that Juvia can still feel" she furrowed her eyebrows, the rain poured down a little stronger than usual now.

".... Let's make a bet." He smirked. Juvia became cautious but curious now.

"Luce? Lucy!" Natsu shook the dazing blonde by the table in the guild and snapped her back to reality. "You okay?" He asked. She shook her head, still depressed to what happened to Juvia.

Natsu scratched the back of his head, thinking of what to do with the sighing blonde. "Hey~ happy! Help!" He said to the blue winged exceed. "What am I suppose to do?!" Happy asked.

"I dunno! Cheer her up!" Natsu answered back. Lucy has yet again sighed. "Lu-chan, cheer up!" Levy appeared beside Lucy.

"How can I?" Lucy sighed again, "seeing Juvia like that, I couldn't even say anything to convince to come back..."

"I doubt that!" Levy said cheerfully and the doors creaked open revealing the iron dragon slayer and the water mage. Lucy looked up to see and her eyes widened seeing how unbelievable it was to see.

Lucy stood right away from the bench and came rushing to Juvia. "I thought you weren't coming back...." She cried embracing Juvia. "But why?" Lucy asked.

Juvia glanced at Gajeel who just smirked with a glare. "Lockser shall see for herself, if Fairy Tail is worthy of Juvia once again." She declared. "Worth to have Juvia's heart."

"I know we're worth it!" Lucy guaranteed without a doubt. "You'll see why she came to love this place!"
