Here With You

Here With You Part 5

They didn't let go of each other's hands until they were back in the room. Gray locked the door behind them as Juvia slipped off the suit jacket and placed it over a chair.

 "Ju-"

"Gra-"

They both started to speak and then stopped, smiling. Gray nodded to her.

"You first."

"No, Gray-sama please go ahead." He stepped closer to her, his hands in his pockets. He'd lost his shirt somewhere on the way and his cross pendant glinted in the moonlight from the tall windows.

"Thank you for coming here with me, I'm sorry it was a bit of a trick."

"Oh no, Gray-sama, it was the most wonderful surprise! Juvia is so happy that Gray-sama would do all this for her!"

"Why wouldn't I? You're my girlfriend aren't you?" he stepped closer, so they were toe-to-toe. Juvia felt light-headed and she swayed slightly towards him.

"Yes." She breathed. She heard Gray take in a sharp breath and she raised her face to his. He took hold of her upper arms and she felt a slight tremor in his hands. 

"So I suppose I should treat you like it."

 "Yes." Juvia placed her hands on Gray's chest. His skin was hot, she could feel his heart beating beneath her palm.

 "Close your eyes." He said hoarsely. She closed them.

"Yes." She said, her voice barely above a whisper. A heartbeat later, Gray's lips were on hers. She heard herself moan as her breath was stolen away. Whatever she had imagined Gray's kiss would feel like, she was unprepared for the heat of his passion. His tongue met hers and intertwined, she fell against him as her knees buckled and his arms clasped around her back, holding her against him as they kissed. After a while they parted and Juvia clung to his shoulders.

"Gray-sama!" She panted. Gray tightened his grip around her waist and looked down into her face. 

"Tonight, how about just 'Gray'?" He said and reached up to the ribbon that fastened her dress behind her neck. Juvia's skin prickled with a rush of heat as he pulled the silky bow loose and her dress fell open, exposing her breasts. Her nipples hardened as the air touched them and Gray made a low sound in his throat as he slid his hand up, pushing the fabric away and cupping her breast in his hand.

"Yes... Gray." She murmured feeling a sharp jolt through her body as she spoke his name so simply. She had never acted so shamelessly in her life! But the feel of Gray's hands, his lips and his eyes on her was intoxicating. In response, Gray growled and buried his head in her shoulder, nipping at the delicate skin there with his lips. His mouth was right next to her ear as he whispered.

"I love you, Juvia." His voice was barely audible but his words cut straight to her heart. She realised that what she had felt for Gray at first was mere hero-worship, an infatuation. But in getting closer to him she had seen his faults and strengths and true love had began. Somewhere along the way, he too had seen into her heart and found something to love.

"Yes, Gray. Juvia wants to experience more of this love with you, with her body and yours."

"It's the same for me." He murmured and they moved together towards the bed. Juvia's dress slipped down to her ankles and she fell back on to the bed, naked. All of Gray's clothes were gone. He climbed up on the bed, kneeling over her. 

"You weren't wearing any panties." He said huskily. Juvia blushed. 

"It would have spoilt the effect of the dress." She said, looking away. Gray put his hand on her naked hip, his thumb rolling over the soft swell of her hip bone. She shivered and arched her back at the sensation. Gray breathed in sharply. 

"You're beautiful. The most beautiful woman I've ever seen." He said. 

"Juvia is embarrassed." She said, lifting her hand to hide her face. But she couldn't keep her eyes off Gray's well-muscled body and her gaze was drawn irresistably further down and then her eyes widened in amazement. She squirmed, wriggling her hips in agitation.

"Are you afraid?" He asked her. She shook her head. 

"Juvia wants..."

"What?" A wolfish smile was spreading over his face. Juvia pouted. He was enjoying her embarrassment! 

"Juvia wants Gray's..." 

"What?" He leaned his face closer and started kissing her neck, her collarbone, moving down towards her nipple. "I won't understand if you don't say." Juvia beat on Gray's shoulder with her fist.

"Don't make Juvia say it!" Gray chuckled and lay his body over hers, landing light butterfly kisses over her brow. 

"Alright, why don't you just show me?" He said, taking hold of her hand and leading it downwards. 

"Gray..." She whispered and her breath caught in her throat. Gray moaned and their lips met again in a passionate kiss. Beyond the window, the night sky was brimming with stars, twinkling gently as the two lost themselves in each other. The night was theirs alone to love and caress.
