Leaving Hurts,
Hate Burns,
Love Heals

-->--<<-->>--<<-->>--

So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm makin'

To keep you by my side

To keep you from walkin' out the door

...

I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding

If that'll make it right

'Cause there'll be no sunlight

If I lose you, baby

There'll be no clear skies

If I lose you, baby

Just like the clouds

My eyes will do the same, if you walk away

Everyday it'll rain, rain,

ra-a-a-ain

-Bruno Mars - It will rain

Chapter 15: Couch

--<-><-><-><->--

Walking home with a light drizzle of rain, it hitting the floor creating puddles, didn't make Gray feel all too great.

Rain was what he had stopped for Juvia, and this particular rain shower was belonging to said person. Her water glistened, but was gloomy. Ran down your skin like it was running for the nearest puddle to join. This rain was Juvia's, no doubt about it. Which this made Gray feel all the more bad - if it was raining, and it was Juvia's....then that meant she was crying. It seemed there were fewer tears with how little the drizzle was, so that meant Gray wasn't making her cry that much, so that's a plus.

Speaking of Juvia....Gray had just barely left the guild after getting told Juvia had left 30 minutes prior without being noticed. It was Erza who told it, after finding out from Mirajane.

Erza had went up to Mira to see if the barmaid had seen Juvia - Erza wanted to talk with Juvia, and try a little bit to make Juvia understand more the situation, just to make it easier for Gray once he talked with Juvia again so he didn't get yelled at once more - but the pregnant woman at the bar just boar the news that the girl had left long before. So, Erza had told Gray to go home and at least try to work it out with his wife. Gray complied.

So that's where he was headed now; home.

Was he nervous? Yes. Would he chicken out? Probably not. Would he at least try and make a better understanding without having Juvia get upset? Hell yes. He was ready for any beatings, even ones from members at the guild who had been giving him glares all throughout the day. He wanted his wife back in his arms, and he would stop at nothing to do just that.

Once reaching the door to his house, Gray grabbed hold of the knob to turn it, and luckily, the door want locked like Gray half expected. Juvia was beautifully smart, knowing Gray would most definetley come home, so Gray thought if she was that mad she'd lock him out of his own home - keeping him from coming in.
