Ice Always Needs Water

She's Done

  It was a bright day in Mongolia today.

Citizens enjoy one and another while laughs and cheers fill the atmosphere.

At a local magic Guilds, Fairy Tail was louder than ever. The guild members did their regular fighting with Cana betting with old Marco and Wakaba. With the two bookworms, Levy and Lucy, reading and chatting.

But something seem different...

A certain water mage wasn't stalking a certain Ice mage.

Juvia sits in front of Mira and sighs, grabbing Mira's attention. She grabs a dusty mug and starts to clean it with a rag before talking to the water mage.

"Are you alright Juvia?" Juvia looks up at Mira as if searching for answers before shaking her head and rubbing her eyes.

"Juvia is done..."

"By 'done', what do you mean?" Mira tilts her head cutely, placing the now clean mug with the others.

"By done... Juvia means that she's done with Gray-sama..." Mira's eyes widen as she drops the rag on the floor before staring at Juvia in concern.

"Why would you give up on Gray? You love him right?"

"Juvia does love him but she can tell that he doesn't like Juvia like that..."

Mira huffed and stares at Gray in the corner of her eye. "Have you tried telling him your feelings?" Juvia rolls her eyes before standing up.

"From the way Juvia has been acting, She thinks she made it obvious. Juvia thinks it's time to move on..." Mira tried to say something but Juvia already left to the request board and grab a mission paper before leaving.

"Juvia..."

The next few days, Juvia has been ignoring Gray and not stalking him anymore which went unnoticed to him.

"Hey, guys?" Gray ask the rest of his team. They were coming back from one of their missions but without a rewards... again.

Lucy was the first one to hear him and nudged Natsu to listen. "What's up Gray?"

"Do you feel like something is missing?"

"No. Is something missing?" Gray thought about it for a minute but shrugged and continue to look out the window.

The thing is that Lucy knew what was missing, practically ever girl in the guild knows what was missing. When Gray shrugged, Lucy tried not to knock some sense into him.

She tried, really hard.

But she couldn't help but throw a stray rock, laying on the floor at Gray.

"Ow! What was that for?"

"For not noticing..." Gray eyebrows flew to his hair line, questioning what Lucy was talking about but she kept her mouth sealed.
Once they walked into the Guild, they were welcomed with 'welcome backs' and 'hellos' but Gray didn't hear a single 'Gray-sama' anywhere.
In fact, he hasn't heard Gray-sama in a few day now?

"Hey, Mira. Have you seen Juvia?" Mira stops cleaning the bar table and looks up at Gray, flashing him a smile before going back to what she was doing.

"She not here."

"Where could she be? I haven't heard from her in three weeks."

Mira drops the dirty rag before getting another barrel of alcohol for Cana. "For three weeks? That's odd because she been the whole time."

"Then why haven't she talked to me?"

"I don't know." Mira shrugged and starts to clean a glass mug. "At least she isn't stalking you like you always wanted. That is what you wanted right?"
