At the guild known as Fairy Tail a pink haired mage stands at the request board with a little blue cat.

"Hmm which job do you think would be good for us to do Happy?" the pink haired mage said to his little blue friend. "Gee Natsu I'm tired of jobs for now I just wanna hang out with Carla for a bit maybe share a fish." Happy said with stars in his eyes fantasizing about sharing a fish with the white cat named Carla.

A beautiful blonde mage stood behind them. "What are you doing now Natsu we just came back from a job." Natsu turned to her with a smile "I need more food money of course check this job out Lucy! " he handed her a request

"Haunted cave mystery that needs to be solved, however, you need to come in two groups one male and one female in each group Reward 700,000 jewel"

After Lucy read the request and the big reward she got excited even if they had to share the job with two other people she would still get 175,000 Jewel which could pay her rent for almost 3 months PERFECT! "All right Natsu you talked me into it lets do it" she said with a smile.

"Oi, I'm going with you on this job too." They turn around to see who said that when they see a dark haired mage with no shirt on standing behind them. "Gray where are your clothes?" Lucy said with her hand to her face. "GAH!" he shrieked in surprise not remembering how he lost his clothes in the first place. After finding his shirt he put it back on over his sleek muscular frame.

"As I was saying I'm going on this job too I don't think it's right for you two to be alone on this mission." Gray smiled towards Natsu he knew that it would get on his nerves for him to come too.

"Stupid frosty bastard always butting into our jobs." Natsu said under his breath. "WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU FIRE FREAK OF NATURE!" Gray said in Natsu's face. "I SAID WE DON'T NEED YOU TO COME ALONG SO JUST MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS YOU NAKED LOSER!" Natsu said back.

"Ummm guys the job did say they needed four wizards two males and two females so it's ok if Gray comes with us, but we need to find another girl since Erza is on one of her S-Class jobs." Lucy said a little nervously she didn't like to get between them during their fights since you could feel the heat from Natsu and the cold coming off of Gray.

From the corner of Lucy's eye she saw a familiar sight as she turned she saw Juvia watching Gray from a distance as usual. Since they needed the extra female assistance Lucy went to Juvia to ask for her help as Natsu and Gray stared each other down.

"Hey Juvia would you mind helping us with this job request it requires two males and two females to explore this mysterious cave." Hearing that it required two groups of a male and female in each Juvia fell into one of her fantasies about alone time with her precious Gray. Oh Juvia is so thrilled to have alone time with Gray-sama. As we walk through the cave together I can hold on to his arm and he will hold me close to protect Juvia and... "Juvia hey Juvia are you in there hello?"

Juvia was shaken out of her fantasy looked back at Lucy, Natsu and Gray who came over to make sure she was alright. "Yes so sorry I'm alright." She said after obviously being embarrassed about being caught up in fantasy.

"So Juvia you gonna come on this job with us or not? Really we could use the help and we need another girl involved." Gray said to her cooly and waited her response. 'Gray-sama asked me for his help he asked for me oh my oh my I have to help I can't disappoint Gray-sama and did he say he needed me!'

After realizing they were waiting for an answer Juvia collected herself and calmly agreed to help them in this job. "All right! I'm all fired up now!" Natsu said with fire shooting out of his mouth. "Lets meet at the train station tomorrow and head to the job be there at 9am." Lucy said to them as she headed back to her house to prepare for the job tomorrow.

Natsu called for Happy to come along back to their house and left Gray and Juvia at the guild. "It's gonna be nice to work with you again Juvia" Gray said with a smile. "Yes, Juvia thinks so too." She said to Gray slightly blushing. Juvia turned to go back to the girls dorm when suddenly she was stopped by a cool hand against her arm.

"Gray-sama what are you doing?" she said in surprise. He looked into her eyes "Juvia... You were about to slip on the spilled beer on the floor you might have gotten hurt." She looked to the ground and saw the beer spilled on the floor. She was a little disappointed that it was to tell her about the spilled beer but, happy because he cared enough to stop her.

"Oh, thank you Gray how kind of you." She said looking away to hid the fact she was blushing. "Hey no problem we are partners now on this mission I gotta look out for my team mate right?" He said letting go of her so she can stand on her own feet now.

"We...we are partners?" Juvia said as bright as ever. "Yeah we are just like Lucy and Natsu are my partners in this job tomorrow as much as I hate being in a team with Natsu he is also my partner in this job." Gray said looking at Juvia.

Juvia lost thought after saying Gray was her partner she was practically screaming in her head. "I'm his partner I'm his partner Juvia is his partner not Lucy or any other girl only Juvia is Gray-sama's partner and no one else!" She looked at him and gave a small smile. "Well, I'm gonna get going see you tomorrow Juvia." He lifted his hand as he was walking out through the doors of the guild leaving Juvia to melt at the thoughts she was having about being Gray's partner even if it was for a job.
