No one's POV"You got this Juvia! Just walk inside!" Juvia said to herself. She had been standing there encouraging herself to walk in for about 20 minutes but she couldn't bring herself to open the door. "Oh come on Juvia!! This is not that difficult, why are you making this harder then it has to be!" Juvia yelled at herself. After another 30 minutes she thought she would try again tomorrow and starting walking home.
💙Juvia POV💙
Maybe it's better that I didn't head inside, what if they rejected me the same way Gray did? What if they laugh at me for crying or not being strong enough? What if...they rather not see me at all? Those thoughts consumed my thoughts as I was heading home. After walking for a bit I hear a familiar voice coming from behind me. "Juvia is that you?" The familiar voice calls out. I turn around and see one of my friends, Lucy Heartfilia. "Oh, hello Lucy." I said without showing much of a expression. "Where have you been? Natsu told us that you got sick I think we all know what actually happened.." said Lucy looking down at the floor. "Oh really now? Then why did you feel the need to ask?" I said kinda of annoyed and sad. She looked at me in shock because of what I said. "Im sorry Juvia...I didn't mean anything bad by it" Lucy said while looking away from me. "Come around the guild sometime k?" She said somewhat quiet and walked towards the guild. Darn it. I was rude to her just because of a question she asked. Me being heart broken is not an excuse to be mean to people I care about. I'll have to apologize to her when I see her again.

Instead of going straight home I decided to stop by one of the parks and sit on the bench. I looked at the well in the center of the park and waa mesmerized by it's beauty. It's water flowed so swiftly but at the same time so delicately. For some reason it reminded me of Gray. I don't understand why he didn't love me like I loved him. Maybe I was to clingy? Or maybe even annoying? Doesn't matter anymore, he rejected me and I don't think I'll be able to make him think of me of something more than just a fellow member of the same guild. After 20 minutes of me just thinking about Gray I heard someone call out my name. "Hey Juvia!" He said. I turned around and saw Natsu walking towards me. "Hello Natsu, how have you been?" I said while flashing him a small smile. "I should be asking you, you've been okay?" Said Natsu. "I've been okay, thank you for asking." I said while Natsu sat besides me. "You should come around the guild sometime. Gramps said he wanted to talk to you." He softly said while looking at the well I was looking at earlier. "Master wanted to see me?" I asked somewhat confused. "Yeah but don't worry about it, come around the guild when you are up for it." He flashed me a friendly smile. Natsu stood up, "Don't blame yourself for what Gray said, you have a lot of people who care about you and we don't want you to think like that. You are important to all of us so don't think lowly of yourself." Natsu said as he made his way towards the guild. I sat there shocked about what I just heard. A few tears had ran down my cheeks without even noticing. I felt so low these past few days and those words had just reminded me that I'm not alone. I was never alone, not even for a second. I had not wanted to see them because I was afraid. Afraid that they would reject me the same way Gray did. But that's not the case at all, is it?

I ran, tears still running down my face. I was looking for Natsu, I needed to thank him for those kind words which reminded me that I will never be alone. I made my way towards the guild. I wasn't ready to face everyone but that's the only place I could think of that Natsu spends most of him time at. Soon enough I was face to face with the doors for the guild again. All of the fear I was feeling didn't matter in that moment. I slammed open the doors and all went quiet. People had been staring at me but I just scanned the room for Natsu. I then saw him near the stage in the back talking with Lucy and happy who have not noticed me open the door because they had been so focused on the conversation they were having. I didn't care that almost everyone was looking at me, I ran towards Natsu with all of my speed. As I got closer he turned around and saw me as I jumped on him while hugging him. (Think of that one time when Lisanna came back from edolas and hugged Natsu) "Natsu, thank you so much..." I told him while letting out my teary smile.
