Chapter 1: Juvia's Happiness

In the simplest of words, it was a beautiful day in Magnolia. The sun was shining brightly in her room, causing the rays to bounce around the metal objects creating her own personal rainbows. White fluffy clouds can be seen casually floating through a never-ending crystal blue sky. A woman with hair that could compete with the radiant azure sky got to enjoy the luminous view from her room and she couldn't be happier. Ever since her Gray-sama took away the dark, torturous clouds that always followed her, she couldn't help but constantly smile in the sunshine. The blue haired woman slowly glided away from her window stopping to smile one last time at the sun before putting on her usual attire, getting ready to head to the guild and see the man of her dreams along with her closest friends.

While she looked at her reflection she admired every aspect of her likeness. She loved the way her hair flowed, how her dress fit, her slender legs, but what she loved the most was the guild mark on her thigh. Fairy Tail has been so good to her, everyone there has treated her like the family she never got to know.

Juvia might never admit this out loud but she was grateful she got to truly know them after her rain left and not a moment before, because if they were to meet her sooner, they might think she was a gloomy mess just like everyone else who was part of her old life. Putting on the final touches and her always present butterfly, Juvia ran out of Fairy Hills, out into the sunshine to start her day.

"Juvia is very happy today," She whispered to herself gleefully, marching down the path that leads to Fairy Tail. She hummed a gentle tune as she enjoyed the soft summer breeze flowing through her hair. Her eyes followed the happy, cheerful people walking down the street, and the wildlife scurrying around her feet. It wasn't long before she started to see the bright lights of Fairy Tail and her heart fluttered. Just looking at the giant welcoming place always made her smile. This was where she meet Gray-sama and the first place that accepted her for her.

She walked through the grand oak doors taking in the everyday image in front of her. The boys were fighting, yelling at everyone that crossed their path. The girls gossiping in a corner about the new Sorcerer Weekly magazine. She walked over to the bar, smile still on her face and asked Mira for some water.

"Hi Juvia, how are you today?" She asked while she handed the bluenette the glass. Juvia took a sip, letting the cool water run down her throat, quenching the thirst she started to feel and smiled up at Mira.

"Juvia is very happy today," She replied smiling brightly. She could tell today was going to be a good day. She would spend it watching her love until he realized his feelings for her. Her mind filled with images of Gray declaring his love for her on the rooftop. She could see him pulling her close to his chest, and running a finger through her soft locks. She would smile up at him, telling him she loved him with her eyes and he would then whisper that he felt the same before screaming to Magnolia that they were in love. He would pull her to the cathedral and bind their love through marriage. A random work of color brought the dazed woman back to reality. Juvia was so focused on her day dream that she didn't notice a hand in front of her face.

"Hey Juvia, how are you today?" A quiet bookworm said when Juvia looked her way. The water mage smiled at the small girl, glad that her best friend's Levy-sama was talking to her.

"Hello Levy, Juvia is great today! The sun was shining when she woke up, and Mira gave her this delicious water." She taller girl said showing Levy the glass Mira had given her. Levy let out a small giggle before picking up her own glass.

"You know Juvia, I have always admired the way every little thing brightens your day, people should write a book about it," The two girls laughed, as they continued their daily chat. They talked about everything from Levy's latest book to Juvia's latest daydream. After Levy went off with the rest of her team, Juvia spent the rest of the day talking to everyone around the guild.

She talked to her Love Rival and made sure to threaten her a few times for good measure before moving onto her best friend. The larger man was hurled in a corner ranting about the quality of spoons the guild had, making her laugh at his weird antics.

"And Gajeel said Juvia is the one with a wild imagination," She whispered to herself as she headed back to the bar to get some food. Mira appeared next to her handing her a plate of fried rice and teriyaki chicken as if by magic. She never realized it but Mira was really good at her job. Juvia said her thank you as she started to slowly eat her food.

"So Juvia how are things going with a certain ice mage?" Mira asked, her eyebrow quirked in amusement. The poor girls face turned beet red as she stuttered over her words.

"Did Gray-sama say something to Mira? Is he thinking about confessing his love to her in front of the guild for everyone to see? Oh my, then Juvia will tell him how much she loves him and they will get married right then and there. Oh, my Gray-Sama is so romantic planning a wedding inside the guild. Gajeel will be my maid of honor while Gray will look so handsome in his tux. Then we will honeymoon on a mountain-"

"Hello, earth to Juvia!" She blinked a couple of times, not really sure who just cut her off. She looked to her left before noticing a hand that was connected to the man she was just thinking about. She looked around the bar for the woman who was just next to her but apparently Mira had left to serve the other members of the guild. She looked back at Gray who was staring at her with an amused look in his eye. Her face tinted slightly pink, and she focused instead on the food in front of her.

"Hello Gray-sama, how are you?" She asked, focusing all her energy on not going into another daydream. Gray must have noticed her behavior because he let out a deep chuckle.

"I'm fine Juvia, how are you?" She looked up at him brightly, her fear of daydreaming long forgotten.

"Juvia is very happy today!" She said her dreamy voice taking effect. "Juvia woke up and saw the sun shining, then she had a wonderful walk to the guild and got to talk to Mira and Levy. Now Juvia is talking to her beloved Gray-sama which she knows is going to be the highlight of her day and-" She stopped herself seeing a very serious and confused look on Gray's face. Right before she was able to speak up Gray surprised her with a question.

"Why do you say always you love me?" At first Juvia was taken back by the question, it was just out of blue, but then her facial features softened and she looked at the ice mage with loving eyes.

"Because Gray-sama took away Juvia's rain," She said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. He looked more puzzled and his face was tight in concentration. His silence was starting to worry her. Did she say something wrong? Finally, Gray looked up and they locked eyes.

"I'm sorry Juvia but that doesn't make any sense. That's not a valid reason to love someone," He said bluntly before walking off to fight with Natsu again. Juvia's face dropped while her heart sunk to the bottom of her stomach. Did she just hear what she think she did? Did Gray just tell her that it was stupid to love him because he took away her rain? Did he not know what that meant to her? Without another word Juvia rose from her seat and headed to out of the guild, her happiness left back at the table with her half eaten food.

Her feet took her around the town and onto the beach. The air was filled with a salt water smell, a cool breeze carrying the aroma around her frame. Juvia slowly took off her shoes and walked further into the water until it reached right below her knee. The cold chill numbing her limbs, taking her focus away from her mind. Her toes curled along the sand and the water waved around her legs. She felt her heart start to sting and she had to force herself not to cry.

"Juvia can not get sad, if Juvia gets sad the rain would come back, Juvia must relax," she said out loud forcing herself to calm down. She fought with the tears and scolded herself when she felt one slip down. Taking a deep breath, she stood in the water meditating her thoughts, keeping her mind blank. When she felt herself relax slightly, she walked out the water and headed to her room in Fair Hills.

"Juvia is happy. Juvia. Is. Happy," She repeated like a mantra with every step. She thought about Gray's words and how each one cut her soul like ten knives, but she had to fight off the feeling. She had to stay strong and in good faith, but she couldn't help but feel like she should have seen it coming, everyone always leaves Juvia. The second she got close to someone they left because the rain was too much. No one understood what it was like to be a rain woman. No one understood what it was like to live a lonely life.

When she got back to her room, Juvia stripped her clothes, laid down and decided to go to sleep early. As she laid her head on the bed her mind filled with memories of her by herself. Nights crying herself to sleep, days hidden in a corner so no one would criticize her. Her mind replayed the words he spoke to her.

"That's not a valid reason to love someone" she repeated to herself in the darkness. A tiny raindrop fell on her window sill as Juvia fell asleep with one final thought.

"Juvia is sad."
