Natsu's face flared as he watched Lucy snatch a full bottle of beer away from his scarred hands.
"No more, Natsu. You're going to be a handful if you have another cup," Lucy scolded. She pushed the beer across the smooth, wooden table towards Cana, who eagerly accepted the full bottle and pressed her lips to the orange liquid.
"This is why I love you," she mumbled between gulps. Natsu's eyes widened in shock as he watched his precious beer disappearing within seconds.
"But Lucy-" Natsu whined, "I just finished a difficult job!" He placed the back of his hand to his forehead, heaving a dramatic sigh. "I just wanted to have fun with everyone. Why are you doing this to me?" Lucy pressed her fingers against her temples. It was her turn to sigh.
"No. Natsu, no," she snapped. Natsu sunk back into his chair and pouted. Lucy could barely contain a smile that was teasing her lips. Instead, she turned her attention to Gray who was seated directly across from her.
"Gray?" Lucy raised an eyebrow as she watched Gray's unusual distance from the group. "Gray!"
The raven-haired mage whirled his head to face her, his eyes alert. "What's wrong?"
Lucy beckoned to Natsu, who was now banging the table aggressively and tugging at Lucy's arm whilst pointing to Cana, who engulfed another bottle of beer. "This. He isn't behaving today," she groaned. "What exactly did you do during the job?" The blonde found herself talking to air as Gray's eyes had sidetracked back to the crowd. Lucy frowned and decided to look in the same direction as Gray.

Through the colourful ocean of Fairy Tail guild members, standing near the entrance was Juvia. Her cerulean blue hair roamed along her shoulders and fell just above her back. She wore her usual thick dress and her hands were entwined nervously. Her ecstatic demeanor was replaced with anxiety which Lucy found peculiar. That was when she noticed an unknown man who hovered in front of her. His eyes occasionally wondered to her lips, her well hidden chest, then her hands, which he attempted to grab at.
Juvia took a step back, waving her hand away nervously. Lucy couldn't make out what she was saying but it was obvious that she was uncomfortable. The man, however, became persistent, reaching out to rest his hands on her shoulders.
Lucy immediately stood up, feeling defensive for her friend but Gray bet her to it, already at his feet and storming over.

"Juvia's in a hurry right now so she can't-" the water mage was interrupted by the man who gazed at her under his thick eyelashes. "I'm sure it'll only just be a minute. Just give me the chance, please?"
Before Juvia could reply, the stranger started to pull at her arm harshly, trying to pull her out the door. Before Juvia could resist the foreign touch against her back, his hands were shoved away from her and she felt a strong arm firmly wrapped around her waist.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?"
Gray's aggravated voice sent chills down the man's spine but it was the very deep voice which Juvia found comforting.
"I-I was just trying to-"
Gray furrowed his eyebrows and tightened his grip around the frightened girl, who snuck a quick glance at Gray. "Whatever you're doing doesn't concern me or her so scram."
"Who do you think you are?" the man snarled. He tossed away a strand of stray hair that escaped from his gelled up-do and puffed up his chest, attempting to assert dominance. "I'm sure this lovely lady here wouldn't like a rough man like you as company."
Gray's frown deepened as he watched the man shoot him a victorious smirk.
"Like I give a damn about her preferences. She's belongs to me, you understand? She's fucking mine."
The stranger's confidence immediately evaporated as he felt Gray's murderous glare and sent Juvia a look, to which Gray growled at.
"Goodbye, I'll see you around," he nodded quickly in Juvia's direction.
"No one's seeing anyone around," Gray barked. "The exit's behind you, now see yourself out before I have to stain my hands with blood."

The man eventually decided to leave and the moment he did, Gray's warm hold left Juvia's waist as he crossed his arms across his chest, shooting a disapproving look at Juvia, who peeked at him under her long eyelashes. "Gray-sama?" she whispered. "Are you-"
Gray interrupted her. "Of course I'm mad, Juvia. What do you think you were doing? Why didn't you do anything?" Gray tousled his pitch black hair and groaned.
Juvia couldn't help but grin, watching Gray getting jealous made her delighted, as she was glad it wasn't just her fuming over any potential love rivals.
"Gray-sama..." she paused, hesitant at first but curiosity got the best of her. "Are you jealous?"
Gray's eyes widened for a slight second and Juvia could barely see a blush form on his cheeks.
"Of course not, don't be stupid," he grumbled. Gray continued to brush down his hair, attempting to hide his face which was now burning as Juvia glimpsed up at him with her sapphire blue eyes. "Are you really not jealous?"
"N-no," Gray grunted. He was losing his composure.
Juvia finally let it go and revealed a set of gleaming white teeth. "In any case, Juvia's really thankful for what Gray-sama did."
Gray couldn't take his eyes off the girl now, his dark pupils scanned her up and down. He couldn't seem to get enough of her. He wanted to see every part of her, touch every part of her. He needed her right now. Gray almost lost it, his mind was conjuring outrageous fantasies about the innocent girl that stood in front of him. He could feel his blood boil as the thought of another man touching her entered his mind. Holding back his every muscle from exploring her at this very moment, he let out a huff before whirling back to the table where Lucy had watched from, a playful smile lingering at her lips.
"We should go back now. The other's are waiting," he muttered.
"Okay, Gray-sama!"
Gray's heart squeezed as Juvia linked her arm through his. Even through the thick fabric of her dress, Gray could already feel how soft and supple her skin was going to be against his. Her delicate voice echoed through Gray's ears and he could feel her breath tickle his neck as she spoke.
