Hey guys! This will be my VERY first multi-chapter fic, and I'm really excited! I warn you, there might be out of character stuff, but I try my very best to keep them in character. This is more of a mature outlook on them, but also they are in the real world. So things are different. I hope you guys enjoy it!

Chapter 1: Cold Moments

"Can it, Ice-Freak."

"Shut it, Rain Woman."

A raven haired man glared at a blue haired beauty. They were both arguing about who would clean the dishes tonight.

"Look Juvia, I've had a long day, and I would REALLY appreciate it if you helped clean tonight."

"Look Gray, I've had a long day too. But it's no excuse to make the woman in this apartment clean up your mess."

"Technically it's both of our messes."

They glared each other down.

"I'll do them later." They both said in unison.

"Ugh, I'm going to my room. Goodnight Gray." Juvia sauntered off into her room. Their apartment was a quaint two-bedroom piece with one washroom, a kitchen and a decent sized living room. The walls were a pale blue and the place was averagely priced. The college roommates shared this apartment - even if they seemingly disliked each other's personalities.

Juvia closed her door behind her and landed on her bed. She looked to her left and glanced at the forming pile of work left on her desk. She sighed and turned away to look at her wall.

Pictures upon pictures of hanging with her best friends. Erza, Lucy, Levi, Cana, Ever, Mirajane, Lisanna and so many others. They were an odd bunch, but she wouldn't have it any other way. She then turned to other picture of her and Gajeel. Her best friend. They've been together since they were 5. Both being abandoned by their parents and left under Makarov, a college dean that took them in.

She then turned to another picture of her and her current boyfriend - Bora. They've been together for a year. It's almost magical being with him. He is so charming and sweet and -

"Oi Juvia! I'm heading out." Gray loudly yelled through her door. She scowled and replied with an okay. Way to ruin her thoughts.

"Gray is so mean to Juvia. Ah!" Juvia gasped as she found herself speaking in third person. Hard to break habits huh?

"Juvia needs to calm down..." She got up and decided to finish her work. A couple hours later it was 11:00 and she decided it was time to go to bed.

**The next morning

Juvia woke up and took a shower. It was 7:00 and she had one more class to go to today from 9-12. After that, Spring Break would start for her. Finally. She finished up her shower and put a loose blue t-shirt on with white shorts.

"Good morning sleeping beauty." Gray commented while eating a bowl of cereal. Juvia grunted and pulled out some cooking materials.

"Watcha making there Rainy?"

"I'm making pancakes. What's with you today?" Juvia retorted back while angrily mixing the batter.

"Well I have a date tonight."

"Another skank? Good for you. It's all you're good for anyways."

"That's harsh Juvia. At least she's nice to me unlike this one blue haired brute I know."

"At least I'm not a red head about ready to get you with her armor collection."

"Ouch. Touché."

They both sat in silence. This was a usual routine. Gray and Juvia would give each other insults, but still try to be civil.

"So what are you doing tonight after classes?" Gray asked.

"Bora was thinking about having dinner tonight actually! So that's what I'm probably gonna do." Juvia replied in a happy tone. Gray scoffed and laughed.

"I can't believe you're still with that asshole."

"At least I can keep a relationship. How many dates have you been on in the past month?"

"In my defense only 5."

"And how many of them were with the same girl?"

"..."

"Exactly." Juvia smirked and finished frying her pancakes. She brought out the butter and honey, and made herself a plate.

"Well, at least I have standards."

"Low standards at that."

"Oh c'mon Juvia. I'm not THAT bad." Gray gave her a playful smirk and he attempted to look suave by pushing his hair back and winking. Juvia looked at him and blanched.

"I'd rather stab my eyes than see you ever do that again." Juvia gave him a sly smile and happily stuffed pieces of her pancake into her mouth.

"Geez you could at least be nice about my repulsiveness. At least I'm not a pale skinned vampire."

"Your blood is pretty deathly, but you're all I got during feasting hours." Gray glared at her jokingly and waved her comment off.

"What a blood sucker. Well I'm off to classes. I'll see you later." Gray got up an grabbed his laptop bag. He grabbed his keys and headed out the door. Juvia waved bye and finished eating her pancakes. She put her hair up into a high pony tail with her bangs out and she put on some light pink lip gloss. They tasted like cotton candy. She grabbed her purse and headed out.

"Juvia! Over here!" Just as Juvia locked her door, she heard Lucy's voice and saw her in her Prius. Juvia smiled and headed over. Lucy smiled as Juvia slid into the passenger seat.

"One more class until Spring Break starts!" Lucy exclaimed excitedly. Juvia smiled.

"You just want to see Natsu shirtless at the poolside." Lucy gasped.

"I DO NOT. I swear living with Gray has made you snarky and extremely sarcastic."

"Please, I'm this way because I have to deal with that stupid stripper." Lucy snorted and laughed.

"Yeah right. Admit it. You like seeing him naked." Juvia became flustered.

"I-I DO NOT!" Juvia blushed furiously, "Besides Juvia has Bora!" Lucy laughed at Juvia's slip. Everyone knew she used to speak in third person when she was younger, but for years she's been trying to get rid of it.

"Oh yeah...you're going on a date with him tonight right?" Lucy asked.

"Yes! Juvia doesn't know what to wear though." Lucy's eyes gleamed.

"I can help you with that."

They arrived to school and went to their morning class. Noon hit and Spring Break had commenced!

"Juvia! Lucy!" Juvia and Lucy were walking when Levi came up to them.

"Ah Levi! What's going on?" Lucy asked.

"Well the gang might have a party! Whaddaya guys say?" Levi asked happily. And by gang she means the big group of friends that all came from Fairy Tail Academy. This university didn't have many students from FTA, so those that did come here stayed close. Especially since they all were close to the dean, Makarov.

"Um...Juvi- I have a date with Bora tonight! I'm so sorry!" Juvia bowed in apology. Levi put her hands up.

"Juvia! It's okay really! Have fun tonight!"

"She'll be with Bora, but after I help her get ready, I'll make my way over. Who's place?" Lucy replied.

"Probably Cana's."

"Okay! See ya later!"

**Later at Lucy's mansion

"You look so pretty!" Lucy exclaimed at her handy work. Juvia stood before her in a tight blue tube top. With it she wore a casual black zip up jacket. And she had a tight black leather mini skirt with killer high heel ankle boots to match. With it some bangles and a heart shaped necklace.

"There! It's only casual, but you look hot!" Lucy squealed with a thumbs up.

"Thanks Lucy! Juvia really appreciates it!" Juvia admired herself in the mirror and smiled. She left and went back to her apartment. Bora picked her up at 6 and they went to a fancy restaurant.

"Bora, this is fantastic!"

"I'm just a great guy, huh?"

"Of course you are! Juvia loves it!" Bora scoffed at her third person slip. He never really liked it. He thought it was childish and silly. Juvia winced at his revolt and tried to act normal.

"So after this, how about we go to my place?" Bora asked, changing the mood.

"I'm okay with that." Juvia quietly said. She was hesitant. She knows that he's been wanting to go further into their relationship for a while, but she wasn't really into the idea of it.

After some time, they left and arrived to his nice apartment. She stepped into his living room and it was pretty big. It was more of a penthouse, seeing as how Bora was actually rich. They both sat on the couch, and they enjoyed each other's company with small talk.

"How long have we been together?" Bora asked, his eyes suddenly half lidded.

"Hmm a year I believe." Juvia said with an innocent look.

"Then why haven't we gone anywhere?" Bora asked with a slight harsh tone.

"I don't think I'm ready for that." Juvia replied. Bora pulled her into a kiss (yulch!) and he wrapped his arms around her. She returned the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. He started the toy with the hem of her shirt and she placed her hand on his, pushing it away.

"Juvia it's been a year!" Bora stopped and looked at her incredulously.

"So what? I'm not ready for that with you. Why can't you just accept that?" Juvia replied with an angry look.

"Ugh, woman you are so frustrating." Bora pushed his hand through his hair and went into his room. Juvia sat on the couch frustrated. Then his phone vibrated. She decided to look at who it was.

Her name was Mina. The text read: "Bora hurry up! I've got something special 4 u tonight ) my place. Now."

Juvia gasped and stared at his phone. Bora came out and glared at the phone in her hands.

"Why the hell are you snooping through my phone?" Bora snarled.

"Who is Mina?" Juvia's tone grew tense.

"She's a good friend." Bora simply stated.

"Yeah, she sure sounds like one. You've been cheating, haven't you?" Juvia glared at him and he buckled under her piercing gaze.

"Well maybe if you decided to actually take a step in our relationship, this wouldn't have happened. Geez, you're so protective of yourself and gloomy." Bora smirked and said this with a nasty tone. He crossed his arms and glared right back at her. Juvia couldn't believe this. She grabbed her bag, threw his phone into his face and starting heading towards the door.

"We. Are. Over." Juvia opened the front door and slammed it.

I hope that was okay...thanks for reading guys! Chapter 2 will be up, hopefully within the week!

I hope you guys enjoyed it .

and I know - YUCK - I made her date someone else other than Gray. I promise there will be Gruvia.

Thanks guys! :D
