"Valentine's Day is coming soon…" said a young water mage with beautiful long blue wavy hair. Her dark blue orbs were staring out the window, noticing little red and pink hearts with cupids decorated on doors and windows from the stores. She sighed and a slight blush appeared on her cheeks when an image of the ice mage crossed her mind. "Juvia dislikes Valentine's day, nothing good happens. Juvia feels sad when she see's happy couples holding hands or kissing." She sighed once more and turned away from her window. "Juvia is always alone and rejected on Valentine's Day…" she mumbled and let herself drop on her bed. She turned and stared at her ceiling. "How is Juvia going to confess to Gray-sama? There will be a lot of girls behind him… Or Gray-sama may even ignore Juvia again!" she sat up and looked down at the floor with a sad expression.
She really deeply loved the ice mage whose name is Gray Fullbuster. She has been in love with him for two years now. Even though they go on missions together, and saved each other's lives, he still didn't feel the same for her, or so he says. When they are on the guild they do talk a bit, maybe even joke around but that's it. He sometimes ignores her or avoids her for unknown reasons. This hurt Juvia's heart, she just wants him to feel the same towards her and be together. But of course, who said love was easy? She has spent countless nights without sleep and even cried, thinking of all the possibilities of him dating another girl, which may be the reason of why he avoids her when they aren't in missions sometimes. Plus with all the girls he has behind his back following him, she wouldn't be surprised if one of them is his girlfriend or he has already had one night stands with some of the girls. The thought of him being with another girl broke her heart; she really wanted him and loved him only.
It was a week 'till Valentine's and she didn't know how to approach the ice mage. She sighed once again and got up from her bed. She went to the bathroom and took a quick shower, got dressed and walked out of her home and on her way to the Fairy Tail guild to meet with her closest friends.
Once she entered, she was greeted by a blond girl with busty figure and beautiful brown eyes named Lucy, one of Juvia's closest friends. They hugged each other and made their way towards the bar, where Mirajane, a model representing the guild in magazines with long, silver-white like hair and crystal eyes that sparkled every time she smiled, was waiting for them with drinks set on the counter in front of her. They both sat down and the three of them started to talk about what every other girl would talk with their best friends, clothes, accessories, tv shows (or in this case, they would talk about anime or doramas), interesting books, rumors, gossip, and finally end up talking about the guys in the Fairy Tail guild.
"Oh Lucy stop being so blind. It's obvious that Natsu does have a thing for you. He just likes to act childish and make people think he is… Erm… "Innocent " in some way, which of course, he clearly isn't." giggled Mirajane while trying to convince Lucy to just accept that she likes Natsu, and he likes her back. Juvia also giggled because she noticed Lucy's cheeks flush a red hue. Lucy didn't know how to counter that, so she just sighed in defeat.
Mirajane directed her eyes to Juvia and grinned a bit. "Lucy, I think we need to help Juvia-chan here with her Gray-sama." Lucy's eyes turned to Juvia and grabbed her hands in hers. "You must confess on Valentine's! This is your chance, Juvia!" said an excited Lucy. Juvia flushed, but looked down at her lap with sad eyes. "Juvia already tried last Valetine's and failed… Gray-sama doesn't like Juvia… Gray-sama prefers other pretty girls over Juvia… He won't notice Juvia not matter what…" said the water mage and sighed. Mirajane smiled at Juvia. "Juvia… You're wrong. You're a really beautiful and nice woman and you do really seem like you love Gray with all your heart. And trust me, he does too, he is just in denial, maybe even afraid."
Juvia looked up at Mirajane with a bit of tears on her dark blue orbs. "Gray-sama always gets the attention of many other girls! What if Gray-sama loves another woman? Or what if Gray-sama has already slept with any other girls?" Lucy scuffed a bit. "Oh c'mon Juvia, Gray isn't like that. He may always get naked out of nowhere and sometimes attract attention but he isn't the type of guy that will wound up with any girl that gets in his way. The reason why all those girls are always behind his tail and trying to hit on him it's just because he strips whenever. They don't love him, they are just attracted by his body and the way he is. You, on the other hand, you do love him and have been behind his back for two years now and you haven't given up. Don't give up now, Juvia-chan." Lucy and Mirajane both smiled at Juvia, who had little tears strolling down her cheeks but slowly a smile appeared on her face and her shine in her eyes came back. "Y-You guys are right… Juvia can't give up now." "That's the spirit!" said Lucy as she gave her water mage friend a thumps up.
"But… What should Juvia do for Gray-sama?" asked the water mage. "Hmm… Ah! You could make homemade chocolates for him or some delicious flan." smiled Mirajane. "Sounds like a good idea, and if you want you can add a little letter." "Juvia shall do some delicious flan and write a letter for Gray-sama then." Juvia stood up, smiling. "If you're gonna write a letter, I suggest you start off with that and don't wait for last minute, it isn't easy to pour your heart out when writing." said Lucy as she smiled at her water mage friend.
"Well, Juvia will go shopping for the ingredients and start on the letter!" The water mage was about to run off but Lucy stopped her. "Wait, have you even made flan before?" asked the blond mage. "Um… Juvia did once last year to experiment, but it didn't come out well…" said Juvia a bit embarrassed. "Oh don't feel embarrassed! The first is always a mess but you'll get it right in no time." smiled Lucy. "Besides," said the model from behind the counter. "The secret ingredient for it coming out delicious and special is love, if you put all your love ad dedication to that flan, trust me it will come out great and Gray will love it." "Love…?" Juvia blushed and smiled. "Juvia will pour all her love into making the flan!"
Mirajane and Lucy giggled. "Oh! Juvia, would you like to go shopping for the ingredients the day before Valentine's in the morning? If you do it too soon it won't be the same." said Lucy smiling. The water mage thought for a moment, she did have a point. The food always tasted better when it's fresh, plus the flan needs to be on the fridge for some hours, so she could put it in the fridge at night and it should be ready the next morning. "Alright! In the meantime, Juvia will start with the letter." She quickly said goodbye and ran out from the guild but not before hearing a "Good luck! You can do it!" from her two close friends.
The young water mage was on the way to Fairy Hills so she could start on her love letter for her Gray-sama on Valentine's. "Oh! Juvia hopes Gray-sama will finally accept Juvia's feelings. Ah! Just thinking about it is making my heart go doki doki!" She blushed to herself as she continued walking but suddenly she bumped into someone, making her snap out of her little thoughts and fantasies. "Oof!" the water mage fell onto her bottom and so did the person that bumped into her before dropping some of her stuff. Juvia quickly stood up and started picking up the stuff that fell that belonged to the stranger. "Oh! Juvia is so sorry! Juvia wasn't paying attention and—" "It's alright; it's my fault because I was in such a hurry." said a very sweet female voice. Juvia stood up from and held out her belongings that fell. She got shocked at how beautiful the girl was. She had long straight, smooth brunette hair that flowed so perfect and ended just a bit lower her waist. Her eyes were a beautiful emerald green. She was wearing a light blue simple dress that reached just before her knees and had black flats. She was just beautiful ad perfect, Juvia had to admit.
She shook her head a bit and bowed a bit, feeling ashamed. "But Juvia wasn't paying attention, Juvia is still sorry…" The brunette smiled and took back her belongings from Juvia's hands. "It's alright, really. And thank you for helping pick up my stuff. I should be on my way, I have to meet up with someone." The girl bowed and walked off, her hair flawless hair flowing with the wind as she walked past the water mage. "That girl is really beautiful…" Juvia felt her heart ache slightly but she shook it off. "Oh! Juvia must start with the letter!" the water mage continued her way to Fairy Hills.
"…Juvia didn't think it was going to be that hard to write a love confession letter for Gray-sama." She sighed in defeat and slumped in her seat. It was currently 8:46pm and she had arrived at around 3:40pm and the only thing she had written on the letter was:
Dear Gray-sama:
Juvia has something very important to say.
Juvia couldn't come up with the correct words to confess her love for Gray. She set the pencil down in defeat and looked out the window. An imaged of the brunette she had bumped into earlier came to her mind. "That girl was really beautiful… Maybe she was heading towards the guild? Will… Gray-sama also find her beautiful…?" her heart ached slightly again. She shook her head. "No, Juvia must not think negatively. Juvia will confess to Gray-sama and Juvia won't be beaten so easily!" she stood up from her chair and nodded to herself. "Hm, but Juvia must take a shower first, that'll help Juvia concentrate better on the letter." Juvia went to her wardrobe and took out her underwear, some night clothes and headed towards the bathroom but not before looking at her calendar. "In six days Juvia will confess. Gray-sama…" she blushed and continued her way to the bathroom. "At least read Juvia's letter on Valentine's, please…"
