She placed her hands on his cheeks. Gray pulled her more closely. Their lips grazed eachother, before...

"GRAY DID YOU FIND HER?!" Natsu called out running to the bridge, Juvia and Gray quickly broke apart. Natsu stopped beside Gray.

"Did I ruin something?" He asked, Gray and Juvia grew a dark blush across their cheeks, and shook their heads vigorously. "Not at all" they said in unison. Natsu's eyebrow rose. "Ok then"

"Anyways, it's getting late. Gajeel wants Gray to come over for dinner." He said before turning and walking off the bridge. Juvia and Gray looked at eachother before blushing harder, and following behind Natsu.

"Did Gray apologize" Natsu said turning and looking at Juvia, she blushed slightly and nodded. "Yes." She said quietly.

"Good, I didn't feel like beating him up tonight." Natsu replied putting his arms behind his head. Gray looked over at Juvia, and quickly looked at the ground.

Once they reached the house, and went inside. Natsu sniffed the air. "Smells amazing. Levy must coming by." He said.

Gray looked over at Juvia and mouthed. "Levy?" Juvia eyes widened. "You have t met her yet! She's Gajeels fiancée!" She squealed. Gray nodded. "Oh ok! That's cool!" He said.

Gajeel came into the room, wearing a frilly apron. "Wash hands, and face. Especially you Natsu." He said pointing at them. The three nodded, and went to the bathroom to wash their hands, and face.

After washing and drying their face, and hands. The three returned to the living room to find, a small petite girl with blue hair. "Gray this is Levy, Honey this is Gray." Gajeel said, introducing the two.

"Nice to meet you Gray, I've heard a lot about you." She greeted. "Nice to meet you too Levy." Gray replied, the two shook hands.

After the meet, and greet, the five of them sat at the table. Gray was between Natsu and Juvia, while Gajeel and Levy were across from them.

Natsu dug into his food immediately after blessings, and choked a little. Juvia ate a bit. Gray coughed and ate some. "This is really good, Gajeel." He said. Gajeel smiled and teared up.

"Finally someone appreciates my food." He said. Everyone bursted out into laughter. Juvia stopped, and stood up.

"Juvia, whats wrong?" Levy asked, Juvia touched her head. "I'm kinda dizzy." She said before collapsing. Gray caught her as she fell.

"Juvia?" He said, shaking her abit, but no response came, the girl was unconscious. Gajeel disappeared and reappeared on the phone. Natsu was panicking, and Levy was getting Juvia's coat.

"Gray pick her up, and carry her." Gajeel said, and went back to talking to the paramedics on the phone. Gray picked her up bridal style. Gajeel hung up the phone. "They'll be here in 6 minutes." He said.

"That's too long!" Gray said before dashing out the door, Natsu followed him closely behind.

"Open the car door Natsu" Gray yelled. Natsu ran ahead opening the door. Gray gently slide him and Juvia into the back seat. Natsu crawled into the drivers seat.

Natsu turned the car on, and slammed it into gear, and raced out of the driveway, towards the hospital. Once they reach their destination. They ran into the building. "Someone help us!" Natsu yelled.

Doctors and nurses came running over, they saw Juvia, one yelled. "Get a gurney, and an I.V. Drip fast!" Moments later more nurses and doctors appeared with a gurney, and the drip.

Gray laid down on the gurney, and the doctors raced off with her. Gray and Natsu stood there in shock. Neither one speaking, just watching as the doctors and Juvia disappear off into the hospital.

"Natsu, tell me. What's wrong with her, she's sick isn't she?" Gray asked looking at Natsu. Natsu stood there.

"She is. Extremely sick." Natsu choked out. Gray's heart throbbed. He backed up against the wall. "I knew it."

Gray slid down the wall, and sat on the floor. "She has bone marrow failure." Natsu said. Gray looked up at him. "No, it can't be." Gray said, Natsu nodded.

"No." Gray whispered. Natsu sat down beside him. "Gray?" Natsu called out.

"This damn illness is taking another one from me!" Gray yelled. Natsu jumped. "You mean to tell me your mom." Natsu started his sentence.

"Yes." Gray replied hitting the back of his head against the wall behind him, and looking at the ceiling.

"She died, the night of state championships, I've hated basketball ever since." Gray said, Natsu looked up at the ceiling. "That's why you get mad at everything relating to basketball." He said.

"Bingo." Gray replied. After a few minutes Gajeel and Levy showed up. "Any news?" Gajeel asked. Both boys shook their heads.

About an hour later a doctor came out. "Are you here for Juvia?" He asked them. They all said yes.

"Juvia's bone marrow scan came back poor, she's not doing well. The scans showed very little marrow, and it's causing her to go into seizures, right now she's in a medically induced coma. We had to, or her heart would've gave out." The doctor grimly spoke.
