05 - I Like You.

OH how Juvia hates P.E. subject so much. First of all, she isn't into physical activities, more like she'd probably pick hitting books than encountering sports since she is so bad at it.

Strangely, the teacher had all of us remain in the classroom says he have something to announce. It had Juvia go curious that for the first time in the whole school year, she paid attention to the PE teacher.

"I've created a proposal for the Principal to approve that we are going for a camping to some place." Silence dwelled in the atmosphere to have the teacher go on further details before they'd probably start bawling out in excitement.

"Since our topic is all about Outdoor Activities, I've thought of that idea. And I had the venue set for us to stay for a night. This activity is not only for us to have fun but also to educate you. Also please keep in mind that all the things that we're going to do in there are graded depending on your performance."

"OMG, I feel so excited!"

"Ugghh why do I have to be older than you two?"

Juvia watched her friends in silence chattering about things like these and that. They're always like that and she just have to get used to it. While they're at it, she thought of how exciting the camping's going to be. Especially they're the first batch to experience such as the activity. The day is due next week and she just couldn't wait. She was so caught in a trance that she didn't heard her friends' calling her, "Juvia!"

"Y-Yes?"

"I was asking how the blind date went? How's the guy?" Oh right, the date that she awkwardly and at the same time fun had with Lyon, "Oh, it's fine."

"That's all you're gonna tell me? It's. Fine? You know I'm asking for the details like gurl tell me everything the two of you did. Did you kiss? Hug? Hold hands?" Lisanna on the other hand just had to face palm herself, muttering words like 'Is she really my sister?' and 'She's insane.'

Only nervous laughs left the bluenette's mouth, sweatdropping in the process. She most likely doesn't want to tell the embarrassments she did in their date and Gray showing up on to their sweet moment as well. Mirajane looked at her in anticipation but no matter how long her mind choosed some words to explain how the date went, she could only think of nothing.

A hand landed on the oldest shoulder, making her turn to the owner who has a beam painted on her lips, "M-Mira-nee, remember telling me you had to meet up with Laxus around 12? You might wanna head to where the both of you are meeting up."

"Oh my, you're right. See you two later. Got some business to do. Bye!" The two of them watched until her figure disappeared from the sight when Juvia heaved a sigh of relief, "I'm so sorry about my sister, Juvia. She just wants to make you happy. More like, making you fall in love with the right person this time. You know she's known as a matchmaker, right? Well, that's what she does. Apparently she enjoys it but she also knows the limits, okay? You can be honest with her if you mean to tell that you didn't actually enjoyed the date."

In disapprovement, Juvia motioned her hand in the air whilst replying, "No. To be honest, Juvia enjoyed the date but it somehow...doesn't feel right."

"Oh you'll get a hang of it soon when you get to know him better for sure. It's just a matter of taking little steps to pursue a relationship. It's not like you'll actually start dating him now." The white-haired girl giggled followed by the other, "You're right."

Even so, Juvia doesn't intend on falling in love with Lyon-sama.

Spending time in the library is perfect if Juvia seeks the calmness she's yearning for when she's at school. Plugging onto her earphones, she flipped the book open, beginning to read a romantic novel on her hands.

Juvia was in the verge of squealing from the events happening in the story when someone took the seat beside her, "Hey."

"Lyon-sama?"

"What are you reading?" Resting his chin on the top of his palm, he questioned.

She took off one earphone to answer, "Simply a romantic fiction book."

Lyon could only hum as his response when the bluenette came to recall the things that occured last night, "Lyon-sama,"

"Yeah?"

"If you don't mind Juvia asking you this but, what do you mean by what you said last night? Y-You said that you know...that Juvia is your blind date?" Her fingers absentmindedly played on the long wires of her earphones out of edginess.

"Uh, about that..." The guy happens to feel the same way as well that he brought a hand to rub his nape.

Juvia thinks that she shouldn't have bother to invoke him out of a sudden, "Forget about it! You don't have to answer her! She knows she's making you uneasy. Juvia's just curious that's all."

In attempt of bringing her earphone back on her other ear, her wrist was nabbed by the guy, stopping her from doing so, "And that's why I need to answer your question."

The action made her freeze and waited for him to continue as he drew a deep breath, "I might sound crazy since I asked for Mirajane to set us up. As for me, it totally wasn't a blind date since I really knew and expected you to show up. Juvia, I actually don't believe from such words like love at first sight but now I do."

Juvia could only gape her mouth in surprise, somewhat forgetting how to speak, "Juvia, I like you."
