I waited outside her school gate dressed as Mystogan. I don't have the courage to be jellal at all right now.

I see students walking out and then I see Juvia. "Juvia!" I shouted and she ignore me. I follow her and stop her from her tracks.

She look at me and hug me. "Juvia?"

"Mystogan comfort me" she whisper "I'm sad"

I hug her back and patted her head "Whats wrong?"

"There's someone that I think I like" she whisper "but he obviously doesn't love me back"

"How about I treat you today? A date"

"I don't feel like it" she mumble and walk away like a lifeless person. I grab her hand and she stop walking.

"Thank you for being so nice to me" she say "Thank you but I don't feel it today. Sorry."

"I like you" I blurted out and begin to blush.

"Sorry" she say "I'm not in the mood for this"

I must've really hurt her. "Then I'll walk you home"

"No need" she say and walk away but I follow silently beside her.

Juvia stop. She look around I guess to see if theres anyone but theres no one around. She sigh and then look at me. " I'm sorry Mystogan."

" What for?"

" You just confessed to me and I rejected it. I'll give you a more clear answer"

I laugh " It's okay. I was just joking...I thought that would cheer you up. I'm sorry. Let's talk about your problem. What's wrong?"  

She smile " You know I was really falling for him. When we first met I thought it was fate like...we were both heart broken and I didn't really notice it at first but then I-I just fell for him hard"

"Who is it? Let me go give him a lecture" I say and Juvia just giggle " No need"

" Who is it?"

She look away "Jellal"

My eyes widen. Me? "Jellal? But-" I want to tell her that I'm Jellal and Mystogan. "H-How does he look like?"

She stare at me " Almost like you but he's got a mark right there" and she pointed to my eye.

"I see" I whisper. " But Juvia if you want you can-"

"Juvia!" shouted Gray from afar. He glare at me and look at Juvia " I was waiting at the gates for you but you were so quick I didn't see you"

"Sorry about that. I thought you were waiting for Erza"

" Juvia..."

" Don't worry Gray. I'm not mad" She smile.

"I heard from Erza that you and Jellal looked close"

" And? Jealous~?" she smirk happily.

" N-No. She also told me that you didn't know that Jellal was suppose to show up that day and she kinda ruined it for you. She felt bad and wanted me to comfort you because you didn't seem like your usual self after that"

"Thanks for caring but I have someone else to comfort me" Juvia hold my arm "His name is mystogan"

"Mystogan?" Gray's eyes widen he look at me.

"W-what?" I ask.

" You're that host!"

" And?"

"Juvia if you needed comfort you could've come to me not waste your money for someone like this to comfort you"

Juvia's grip on my arm tighten  "You really think so low of me? That I have no one to comfort me because I'm such a loner that I would have to do something like using money for someone to comfort me?!"

How sad.

"That's not what I meant Juvia"

" Then what do you mean!" she shout out and gray became silent. "I think you should leave" I tell Gray.

"Stay out of our problem" mumble Gray.

I frown " Last time I checked you were the one who broke Juvia's heart" I tell him " stop leading her on"

" I'm not! I'm just being a great friend and telling her that if she needs comfort then she can come to me!"

"Oh I see" I smirk " Well then thank you for your kindness but Juvia has me to comfort her and just to tell you I don't charge anything when it comes to juvia. After all she is my sweetheart and I love her"

"How can you go out with someone who sells his body?" mumble Gray and walk away.

"Now that's going too far" I mumble.

"Sorry" whisper Juvia.

I look at her to see her crying but trying to hold back her tears. " I'm so sorry"

"Did he hurt you that badly?" I ask and hug her.

"This is stupid but I'm just so hurt by all guys. I love them but they don't love me back. at first I thought that seeing gray with erza was the worst pain I've been through until Jellal came and he never showed up even though I was waiting for him. That hurt even more."

" Juvia...how about this" I started but stop. " Follow me" I tell her and walk away while holding her hand to a nearby public bathroom. " Wait for me here" I tell her and walk inside the bathroom. I wash off the makeup on my face and dry my face off. I walk out and Juvia's eyes widen.

"Don't worry it's me mystogan"

" You look just like him" She whisper.

"Don't I?" I smile. That's because I am him.

"Mystogan. You didn't have to..and how did you know how he looks like?" she ask.

" That's because....we go to the same school" I tell her.

"Oh I see..." she just laugh " You don't have to do that Mystogan. I'll be fine"

"No. I have to" I say " Juvia, use me"

she turn red.

" I love you but you don't love me the same so I'll pretend to be Jellal for you. I'll love you as Jellal"

" Mystogan..." her eyes begin to fill up in tears. " You really don't have to. Am I that pitiful?"

" No" I smile and wipe her tears that have begin to fall down " You are just too lovable to be left alone like this"
