The Ship Masters

The First Problem

~FAIRY HILLS~

Juvia quietly hummed to herself as she was cleaning her room. Yes, today is the day where Juvia will confess to Gray-sama.

She quickly dressed up into a smooth, satin fishtail dress with a sky blue top and a long, flowy, white skirt. Her hair was let down into perfect waves and she finished her outfit with white flats.

She walked out of Fairy Hills and made her way to the guild. About halfway, she met Gray.

GRAY-SAMA!!!!!

Gray groaned as he turned around to meet his number one fangirl. (A/N: which is me <3) He was stunned when he saw Juvia like...that.

She looked so perfect standing there. It was like...a dream. No, Gray,stop. You can't.

Juvia stuttered "Umm, Gray-sama? J-Juvia would like to know ypu to know that she likes you very much." She looked down at her feet and clacked them together softly.

Gray was not surprised this was coming. He knew that Juvia was obsessed with him, but he liked her too. She was smart, pretty, and strong, but he also knew the consequences if he fell for her. "Im sorry Juvia, but I can't return you feelings." And with that, he ran to the guild, leaving a very broken Juvia behind.

The sky turned gray, and it started to pour. Juvia stood frozen in her spot, not sure if she could even walk anymore. She slumped against a building wall, and sat there, in the gloomy rain, waiting for this to be over.

"Hello? Juvia?" Gray snapped his fingers in front of her face. There she was, drifting off to dream world again.

"OH! Sorry," After imagining the worst that could happen, she mustered up the courage to tell him her feelings. But, before she could say a word, Gray interrupted her thoughts.

"Hey, umm, do you mind if you go with me somewhere?" A slight tinge of red creeped across Gray's face.

"Uh-you mean-like, a date?!" Juvia asked with surprise in her voice.

"Um, yeah."

Juvia grabbed his arm and asked "Well, let's go then."

Gray smilied and they ventured off into the town.
