Prologue

Gray was sipping his usual drink at the guild's bar. The teen had just got back from a mission, along with his team and aside from the usual vibe inside the guild, there's something that was bothering the ice mage. He let his forehead slam against the wood, he tried to suppress the feeling deep inside him.

This day won't be officially usual if there's no certain water mage around him.

Two weeks ago, when the King threw a party for the wizards, everybody was vibrating with joy and excitement.

A lot of things happened, chaos and tragedies and everybody doesn't want to be reminded of the said 'dragon's incident', including him.

He promised that he will no longer hold back on things he doesn't like and Juvia caught his attitude that day, she witnessed the venom on his voice. He remembered her confessing in a very surprising way... He's not entirely guarded at that time, the whole thing surprised him.

And in the end, he gave her a direct answer. No.

The words slipped without a notice and before he could explain things even more, she already switched her 'fan-girl' mode on at him.

The ice mage doesn't know how to react so he continued his way to the crowd.

It's flat clear, he rejected her. Straight in to her face, which is adorned by a bright blush and her wide eyes known to be staring only at him.

Somehow, a part of him regretted what he told to her. He even considered that Juvia was just pulling a bright atmosphere around him, but deep inside, the blue-haired girl was certainly hurt.

He looked on his side, sensing something. His eyes narrowed when he saw Juvia waving at him when she entered the guild doors. She plopped gracefully beside him, and despite the heart-shaped eyes, she managed to control herself from snaking her arms around him in a very intimate way.

He nodded at her when she called him, the hearts on her eyes became larger, her cheeks were flaming incredibly.

"Welcome back..." Juvia simply stated, smiling shyly at him, her blue eyes couldn't contain the love she's directing at him.

From his point of view, Gray was nothing but confused. The girl clearly knows everything but to give up.

That made the ice mage smile, he nodded again before sipping his drink.

After that Juvia had began to tell him stories about her previous mission. Gray enjoyed how concentrated her mind was, focusing on each description she shares with him.

In the middle of her talking, she suddenly stood up. Gray guessed that she remembered something unsual, or maybe she forgot about something?

She confusedly looked down on her toes and he heard her whisper something.

"What am I... doing in here?" Her eyes became very large, brows knitting together.

"Hey Juvia," he was about to place his hand on her shoulder when the said girl suddenly turned around. Her eyes were fixed on the floor she's walking on.

She was confused. Gray watched her as she bumped into one of the tables, and he immediately got up from his seat, calling her name in alarm. But the water mage didn't bother to look back at him, she continued to walk around the guild, now both her hands were clipped together right in front of her chest, as if she was praying.

Gray's dark eyes followed her every movement.

Gajeel who was sitting at one of the benches called her too, observing her unique behavior.

Juvia stopped, blinking her eyes rapidly.

This time, Gray finally moved. He made his way towards her and reached a hand, placing it on Juvia's shoulder. She flinched at the touch, she turned her head around at him and her eyes were wide and unblinking.

Gray narrowed his eyes, "Are you alright?"

She bit her bottom lip before looking at the hand placed on her shoulder.

She looked so lost.

Juvia opened her mouth, attempting to speak. She closed it again after a few attempts, not knowing what to say.

She started to fiddle her skirts in an awkward manner. At the corner, Cana stopped her drinking, she straightened herself from her seat. "Oi Juvia, what's happening to you?"

Gray only stared at the water mage. There's something wrong about her; something weird that he can't explain.

Suddenly, she lifted her head and turned to him fully. She looked at his hand on her shoulder before a smile appeared on her face.

"Y-you..." she spoke, blinking her dark blue eyes in the process.

Gray furrowed his eyebrows deeply, looking at the water mage's eyes straightly.

Juvia looked down again, she didn't know what to say... She's confused, she didn't know what she's doing, she didn't know where she was.

And then, with a blink of her eyes, everything returned to normal.

She looked up at Gray, a nervous smile on her face.

"G-gray-sama...?" she asked, unsure if she called the guy in front of her correctly.

Gray scowled, "Yeah?"

A sigh of relief was the only reply he got from the girl.

"Nothing," she smiled.

Gray nodded, still looking at her. "Don't just go walking around the guild and cutting yourself in the middle of your talking, you're weird."

Yes, Juvia knew it. She's weird, and back at the moment she's strolling around the guild, stood up from her seat, stopped telling her previous mission to her Gray-sama, she knew something is weird about her.

At that moment, it was crystal clear to her. She forgot everything, her mind became a white, blank paper.

A/N: I know your'e all confused -_-" I don't even know if I explained things correctly... but this fic needs to be out of my mind~! Mou~ this is so difficult, Im sorry if you didn't understand it fully... Especially the 'walking around the guild scene' but- waaah! Just bare with me please. OK, I'll just give you all a hint... This piece involves around Juvia being forgetful and later on, forgets everything... it's not a disease or something but Ill explain it all to you in the future chapters. This will be full of heartbreak and heartbreak and heartbreak... Tell me, what are you going to do if the person who's always on your side, not leaving you and doesn't give up on you suddenly stops? Because suddenly, he/she no longer recognizes you or something like that? Answer me your opinions and comments and reviews~! Thank you!

(Sorry if there are spelling, grammar mistakes... Im not in the mood to be so perfect when I posted this, forgive me...)
