Frozen Bliss: Gruvia Oneshot
after months of being frozen in my own self doubt, I have emerged for a second to give you this.
I do hope you enjoy. Its a little bit more poetic than fic (if that makes sense and yes I have been binge listing to TTDP)
thanks for reading <3
------
In her mind, she had thought love felt like she was evaporating. They said you know when the person you love stares at you and it feels like when sun creeps on your skin after being in the cold dark for hours.
She felt that with him. A blasting heat absorbing everything around her. Hot sun on her skin yet they had all forgotten that she was made of water.
And while they said she was glowing, they didn't see that she was fading away. Becoming so lost in the blaze of him that his smoke made her steam and loose the way her eyes sparkled.
She choked on a fire that she had helped build and the clean air they once had coated her lungs black until her knees buckled and she had gasped for air. Her skin bubbled as his so call love boil her at her seams. There was nothing to be left of her if she would stay.
He said no one could love her the way he did and she desperately hoped that it was true. The scorch of his fire was crueler than the years of a dark sky. She'd rather spend the rest of her life sheltered by the rain if it meant to keep his flame away.
For a moment, after she left, she was merely raindrops of who she was. Like a ripple in a lake that never settles to see the clear reflection. Water can retain any form and yet she barely remembered hers. She thought it would be best to join the water cycle and wait until she precipitated. Maybe then she would be like a fresh water spring.
There was no hope. A fantastical heat that made her feel warm for a moment left burn marks everywhere. She wanted her heart to be mended but not if it was forged from embers.
Heat rises, yet she felt frozen on that roof top.
Locked into a tundra she had never witnessed. Her own water boiled with anger and she hated the feeling of heat. Hated how he turned her own magic against her. A rage consumed by broken promises and remorses. Once a delicate rain cloud, now stood a violent mess of a tsunami contained in a cracked bottle.
But him.
He was cold.
He was frozen.
She was mesmerized.
An ocean is meant to be a plunging cold and while the burns were still fresh, she jumped.
They were scared that her water would break out into an icicle. That she would become an ice sculpture at the center of the table. Water into a solid form that could never be melted. Oh how they thought she was going mad for following him down that snowy path.
They said that no matter the weather, her rain would prevail. There was no room for growth or flowers to bloom as she drowned everything and took herself too.
But how wrong they were.
She had sunk so far down into the depth of her sea, she had almost forgotten that she commanded its waves.
Instead of blisters of heat, there were snowflakes dancing around her. Fractals of ice surrounded her world and danced rainbows across her skin. And for the first time, when his hand caught hers, she felt a warmth like never before.
It was beautiful and peaceful. Skating on a frozen lake but she never was scared if she fell in.
They said that opposites attract but she felt perfect with him.
Her heart became mended and crystallized in a way that enchanted her. Every burn was slowly cooled to where she almost didn't notice the scars. Her face had paled from the heat that when she stared at her reflection, her red cheeks surprised her.
Some didn't like seeing their breath in the cold, but she loved it. The higher the altitude, the shorter the breath. But here with him, she never felt more alive.
Water and ice. One in the same. She was frozen in his eyes and she had never felt safer.
For a man that claimed to have a frozen heart, it thawed instantly with her.
The cold could leave someone dead, but it brought out her pulse. A remembrance of how powerful she was came back in her own tears as he held her.
Her lungs flushed out of any smoke became resistant to heat. A flower that could withstand the frost. A beauty that embrace the cold. Every trace of her skin was covered in a blanket of his lips.
Love for them was clear and pure like ice. No longer does she squint within flames to see her own hand. She parades loudly through the snow knowing no harm will come her way.
She was eternally grateful to be caught in this frozen bliss.

:) Thanks for reading, let me know what you think <3

Gruvia fanfiction: hurt/comfort, sad and a little bit of fluff by the end.
Warning: mention of self-harm, depression, anxiety, bullying, and blood.
Original posted in AO3
____________________________________________
Juvia was never one to indulge herself into someone's personal business, unless she was asked for.
She was private herself, and she never wanted to ask for help or advice concerning her anxiety disorder, even if she deeply wanted to seek their comfort, but this isn't about Juvia.
it was about her only lover, her sweet man, and compassionate boyfriend.
Through out their intimacy and romantic relationship-which was still developing- they always tried to share their problems, their insecurities, it has been difficult for both, especially for a person like Gray, always wearing a ghost-like shield to separate his friends from his life.
Juvia could say the same thing about herself, mostly because she doesn't want to bother people.
But they went through this, they discussed about it and how they'll try to lean on each other when it gets too hard, and so far they have been showing a little bit of vulnerability.
At least that's what Juvia thought.
It was a late afternoon, Juvia was finally done with her classes and ready to join her friends in the FT salon room, and end the evening with a nap, she can feel a headache coming to upturn her night.
She wanted to take the stairs rather than the elevator, to get her legs pumping after sitting in the hard wooden chairs in her class, it makes her legs numb and uncomfortable, And once she was about to take the next stairs, she heard murmuring, two people were conversing in hushed tones. it didn't take her too long to realize who thery were.
Gray and Erza, of course no one can miss her orotund voice.
Juvia knows they were having a private conversation, something she shouldn't be listening to, but she couldn't budge from her crouching position ( how did she get to crouch in the first place?).
She wasn't jealous, she is very much confident about that, because she knows better than be jealous of Erza, and despite her overriding imagination and her traumatic past that deprived her from having any trust towards her new friends, she believed that Erza is better than a cheating friend. moreover, she wouldn't do this to Jellal, or Gray or to her.
But Juvia had a feeling that this might be something she had to hear, even if she'll feel guilty after it.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Erza asked, rarely does Juvia get to hear worry laced in her voice.
"Yeah" Gray replied, although it took him a brief moment to do so. Matter of fact, she noticed how tired he got in the last few days, but she didn't worry too much about it, she assumed it might be university loads of assignments.
"You know you can talk to me about anything" she assured the boy, a weird sense of worrisome began to crawl over Juvia; why is she pushing him to speak up? must there be some history that Gray didn't bother to mention to her?
"I am alright Erza... trust me" he responded.
there was quietness for a moment, Juvia urged to take a little peak from where she is hiding but she doesn't want to risk being founded, it will cause problems and Gray might even be disgusted and break up with her and all her friends will find her weird and leave her alone like before-
her exaggerated overthinking stopped abruptly when she heard the rustling of fabrics.
she carefully leaned to see that Erza was rubbing his arm in comfort. It was all peculiar to her.... well maybe not new but unusual, especially to Gray, she isn't that affectionate compared to Natsu and Lucy.
Well, if Juvia were to be general, the Red haired woman was never this gentle with anyone but she has her motherly moments.
so this was very surprising for Juvia, and it made the worrying pit in her stomach stronger.
"If ... you have the idea of doin-"
" I am not going to do it" he retorted, in a rather sharp manner, he sighed after a moment.
"I swear it's nothing like that... I'm just tired" he added, less bothered than before.
"Alright... let me know when you need me, okay?" gripping his shoulder gently, Juvia could see the nod of her boyfriend; he agreed.
once they started to move, Juvia panicked for a second, if they do find her here she'll throw a bunch of stuttering words thus making her look like an idiot and ending her perfect romance.
but instead, they both agreed to take the elevator down to the common room ( which made her remember to go there as soon as she undress from her outfit), fortunately for her, she doesn't have to stand in an awkward anxiety inducing situation.
Once she heard their voices disappearing and the sound of the elevator, she slowly left her hiding place and ran upstairs to her dorm floor, all while her brain is racking through what she had heard.
Gray is hiding something from her and he doesn't want to tell her. That's one thing she is confident about.
But what she doesn't know is the content, what he is going through, is it bigger problem than she can imagine? She has never seen Erza that worried and particulary towards Gray.
it says a lot.
the loud chattering of her friends didn't distract her from her circling thoughts about Gray, he was sitting next her, their knees touching while arguing with Lucy about whatever topic that Juvia didn't bother to listen to.
She doesn't know if she should ask him about it, she feels like she might be pushing him into a corner and making him pour out his stress out and that's not something Gray is found of, she knew that by experience and she doesn't want to make the same mistake.
However, she is scared, what if ... it's a huge thing that concerns his life? She knows that Gray tasted that empty sense of life once when he was young, he told her that and Juvia cried by the end which made Gray nervous.
And what if Gray isn't happy? what if he doesn't want to ... go on anymore? she can't always trust his pretty smile, she can't be reassured by that even if she knows him by the back of her hand.
"Juvia?" her beloved's sexy! voice called out to her, while nudging her knee with his slightly. She snapped out of her haze, and looked at him.
he didn't look all worried but the usual frown on his face slightly changed, something that meant that he was observing her silent demeanor.
once she immediately set her eyes on his beautiful handsome face, she fought against the overthinking of hers. Gray would do that no more, not after what he told her; the fact that she was here with him and breathing with him was enough for him to continue living (his words not hers).
so maybe Juvia is overthinking it.
"what are you thinking about?" , he asked.
she blinked, feeling nervous after she got caught dazing in front of her friends, although she couldn't see Lucy in her spot anymore.
"it's nothing, just some assignments to do" she chuckled to hide the nervousness from her voice, but she knows that she failed just by forcing that small laugh from her lips.
Gray kept looking at her, an invitation to vent about whatever is eating her up, but Juvia doesn't know how she can bring forth a subject that concerns him, plus how can she tell him that she was eavesdropping into a private conversation?
.... it's not like she followed them, it was a coincidence.
However, if she stores this worry to herself, it will haunt her tonight, and she has an assignment test tomorrow, she can't afford to go without sleep in her system (not like she never done that before).
Maybe stating it at first won't make it a problem.
"well... I heard something today" she began, fiddling with her fingers in her lap.
Gray leaned on his arms, his elbows on top of his knees, she felt a little bit comfortable talking with the fond gaze that he is wearing in his face.
"I accidentally heard you and Erza talk about something today, in the staircase.." she told him, not daring to look at his eyes.
"Juvia didn't mean to first of all, but based on the conversation, Juvia is feeling a little bit worried about you..."
she finally glanced at him and she felt the anxiety pile up in her stomach.
Gray's face was... conflicting, like he was scared but he is masking it with anger.
" you were eavesdropping? what the hell Juvia-"
"Juvia wasn't! I was taking the stairs!"
"you never take the stairs!"
"i do when I want to walk!" Juvia never wanted to raise her voice at her beloved, but the way he is taking the conversation was ... nerving, as if he is accusing her of discovering a secret door that holds his deepest scars.
he got up from the coach, ready to leave the conversation, running away from it.
"My love, Juvia was just asking!" Juvia tried to follow after him.
"don't ask questions I won't answer Juvia!" he looked back, harsh expression covering the fear in his eyes.
Juvia gathered a moment to breath in, she doesn't want her anger to control her emotion, but it made her feel so unfair, it was so unfair that she got to share her deepest scars, her trauma, her fear, her joy, her sadness.
and he offered her everything, so why is he pushing her away?
" what is it that you are hiding from me?" she asked quietly.
" I don't need to tell you"
"that's so unfair!" she yelled, her fists clenched from her sides, and she finally blurted it out, in she failed on keep her emotions controlled.
she can see her friends coming through the entrance door, concerned over the raised voices. It is actually way more concerning when it's the rarest couples who fight.
Gray looked taken back by Juvia's tone. She rarely does that to anyone, but if she did it towards him, it indicates that there's something bigger.
"i always reach out to you, even when I am afraid" she continued, she felt her face heat up like a furnace.
" so what are you afraid of?"
the question triggered something in Gray. She can see his usual frown vanish from his face, and for a moment she saw him scared, as if she caught a glimpse over his past self.
but Gray clenched his jaw and turned around to leave, Cana and Lucy didn't try to reach out to him, they just let him leave with their mouth agape from what they've witnessed.
Juvia felt the frustration hitting her at once, clenching her hair tightly, she can sense the painful clutch.
she fell back into the couch, huffing in disappointment.
It turns out asking him was a problem.
Gray is hating himself, no matter how much he blasts the music into his ears, it couldn't block the loud noises in his head.
he admits that this was the worst fight he ever had with Juvia, everything was sudden to him, like a slap to his face, Juvia never yelled at him with anger, actually, she never yelled at anyone before.
but it's his fault anyways, he was defensive because he was a coward, who didn't want to show his scars to her. how could he? Juvia was a gentle soul although she always tries to deny it with her past "Shameful acts" of whatever, but everyone has their own piece of tainted wrongdoings.
Gray doesn't care if she killed someone before, she is still that blinding sunlight that engulfs his cold chest with warmth.
and he is afraid that if he pulls up his sweater and shows what he did to his wrists will make her see him in a different way, whether with disgust, fear, or pity.
he had seen those people before. he met them, and he was friends with them before they stripped him from his secret self-harming and pulled down their masks to reveal their true colors.
pity, disgust, fear...
if only Erza hadn't stopped him in the staircase, if only she wasn't so frightened-
Gray sighed, he pulled his headphones away from his ears.
no he thought, here's no one else to blame but me.
come to think of it, Erza had the right to ask him about his wellbeing, he kind of found it hard to keep on the same damned routine of university, and on top of that the unnecessary load of assignments he has to do, it makes him anxious just the thought of them.
but it doesn't matter now, he had another problem to fix...
Gray was never a fan of communication, and after today? he can sure label himself as the worst at communication, he shouldn't have yelled at her, he shouldn't have looked at her that way, she deserves better.
maybe if he could just end it.
"when you face a problem with someone you love, you harvest your self-hater and think that people deserve much better than you do, and then you end everything."
she heard him coming closer to her place, where she is swinging her legs from the rooftop. She would have been terrified if there wasn't another rooftop built right under it, so the fear of breaking a leg or two from a fall is impossible to happen.
she felt a heavy weight over her body, warmth embraced her as she slowly tugged the coat with her fingers, although she wasn't feeling the cold.
she saw from the corner of her eye,Gray shifting his position over the railing of the roof, leaving his legs dangling similarly as hers. she didn't have the courage to look at his face again, which made her frustrated to death, because the silence hanging between them was driving her mad.
should she say something? should she start by apologizing? she could if the heavy lump didn't pressure her from forming words.
"I'm sorry", she heard him say, oh so softly that made her heart hammer with speed.
why should he apologize when she started this whole mess? she opened her lips to argue against who's fault it was, but he beat her into it, " I didn't mean to yell at you"
Juvia finally turned her head to look at him, he was avoiding her eyes and instead looking blowing them, his black messy hair was moved by the wind of the season, and it made him look so ethereal.
she shook her head instead and looked below them as well. She noticed a small creature-probably a squirell- settling himself in one of the tree branches, enjoying his treat.
"Juvia is the one who is sorry, I shouldn't have listened to your conversation.."
" I could have just explained what you heard instead", this time their eyes locked at each other, she feels the heavy awkward air began to shift away alongside the wind.
she would be lying if she said that she wasn't curious about their conversation because she knows that if they don't discuss it right now she will be left with a sleepless night, yet she doesn't want to push him into pouring down his scars if he doesn't want to.
"Juvia doesn't want to pressure you-"
"I want to."
he interrupted her, and Juvia doesn't have a choice but to listen and give in into her curiosity impulse.
Gray took a breath, and Juvia felt the nervousness seeping from him, so she hesitantly offered her hand towards him, she doesn't know if he is comfortable about it or not, so an offering is better than a bold move, like she usually does.
He looked surprisingly at her hand and smiled slightly, grabbing her hand while interlocking their fingers together, "you usually just hold it, why are you being polite?" he said, pointing out the fact that she is impolite when it comes to showing her affection towards him.
Juvia snort:" for now I'll be polite "
she grasped his hand for reassurance, and smiled at him.
"well.." he began, "since you know that I didn't enjoy my life in Korea, and that I had to work a lot and study everyday like some slave, and why my mental health was dropping all the way down" , he stopped for a moment, breathing in through his nose, and exhaling; and Juvia waited patiently, she could even wait for ages she won't mind.
"I used something so I won't try and kill myself"
Juvia's worrying pit started expanding, making her whole body tense with the thoughts running over her head about her beloved hurting himself.
" I used to self-harm."
the blue-haired girl remembers the feeling of being absorbed by fear, how her whole body freezes whenever she encounters a crowd, how the fright will make her shiver non-stop and her mind draws blank. She is familiar with this.
but she never felt fear choking her being like right now.
self-harm.
just the thought of seeing her lover sinking those sharp razors to his wrist so he wouldn't try suicide as an option, she felt like crying.
Gray broke the eye contact between each other, realizing how much of a shock that might have been to her, she can sense how tightly he is holding her hand right now, as if she would run away from him any moment.
"i am sorry" he apologized, he looked dejected, and Juvia could maybe see a glimpse of his old self.
but why is he apologizing? does he think that she'll run away out of disgust from what he suffered? does he think that Juvia would leave him because he had other means to keep himself from dying?
"Do you think that Juvia will leave you?" Gray didn't glance at her, so she grabbed his chin with her hand, turning his head to look at his grey eyes, they were red, ready to brim with tears. "This isn't your fault, and ju via wouldn't even think of leaving your side after opening up to me."
she can feel the tone of her voice quiver, but she held it because her sweet lover man is the one who has the right to tear about it, not her, no matter how much she wants to.
"you are very brave my love." she said softly, cradling his cheek, which were cold under her hand. she knows that he won't believe it, not now at least, it might need time for him to realize how courageous and strong he is, she is aware that he went through this all alone.
"i am not going to leave you alone, Juvia promises on her life."
the lid broke and everything in it scattered out.
Gray cried silently, and Juvia brought his head into her chest, to cradle him from all the pain and the danger of the world, she can sense her own tears ready to fall like a rain shower.
they held each other tightly under the glimmer of the stars and the dark sky, while the whistles of the wind gave them a bittersweet shiver, but all they could feel was each other's warmth.
Gray wants to not give in into his self-blame tendency, and while it's hard, opening up to Juvia made him feel that something clicked, like a puzzle joining to fill a whole picture.
Juvia completes him.
and so they cried, their fingers still locked together and the time passed not knowing for how long they were in each other's embrace. and nobody broke their heartfelt moment.

Body Swap
An imagined conversation because I’m too lazy to write a full fic lol. Happy new year, everyone! 💙
Tumblr media
Gray: ... so that's what happened.
Juvia: So Gray-sama is saying that the reason behind Juvia's transformation into Gray-sama wasn't because she was thinking of him so much?
Gray: That's right.
Juvia: Instead, it was because Gray-sama loves Juvia so much?
Gray: W-what? No!
Juvia: But you said the alchemist used Love Bond to swap our bodies?
Gray: Uh-uh...
Juvia: And based on the name of that spell, it looks like it will only work with the person you love...
Gray: Well...
Juvia: So if Juvia turned into Gray-sama and Gray-sama became Juvia... it means our mutual love for each other made the spell work!
Gray: Don't go jumping to conclusions!
Juvia: But how else would Gray-sama explain what happened?
Gray: ...
Juvia: ...
Gray: ...
Juvia: Woah! Then that means... G-Gray-sama loves Juvia?
Gray: I...uh... I...
Juvia: Gray-sama doesn't have to answer. Juvia understands.
Gray: ... you're the best, you know that?
Juvia: Ah, Gray-sama just complimented Juvia!
Gray: That's why I love you.
Juvia: ...
Gray: ...
Juvia: Gray-samaaa! Juvia loves you too!
.
.
.
Mira: Aww, finally! Smooch away, my dear lovebirds!
Cana: Looks like Gray finally grew a pair! Wait, let me take a closer look...
Erza: G-Gray! J-Juvia! W-why are you... this is n-not the p-place for that! 
Natsu: Ha, you really are such a pervert, Ice Princess!
Lucy: Will you two at least wear some clothes before you suck each other's face off?!

Gruvia Week 2023 - Day 2: Whisper
Faint moonlight cast a soft glow inside a small room of an old rickety inn as sounds of steady breathing coming from the silhouettes of two people sharing a single bed filled the silence of the night. Outside the old inn, everything was covered in white as powdery snow kept on falling from the dark sky. From time to time, the cold howling wind would blow giving the place an eerie vibe.
Such a scene was a normal occurrence up in the Northern Mountains of Fiore.
Back inside the small room, one of the two occupants was fast asleep while the other one was wide awake listening to nature’s creepy lullaby. Lying on their sides with their backs on each other, Juvia’s only indication that her ice mage companion was in slumber was his calm breathing. Unlike the unbothered man, the water mage couldn’t fall asleep.
Aside from the sound of the wind that didn’t really bother her that much, the fact that she was sharing a bed with the dark-haired man beside her was giving her heart an overdrive.
Earlier when they arrived looking for rooms to stay overnight, the cliché plot of not having enough available rooms occurred and left them with no choice.
They were on a mission to capture some rouge mages hiding in the snowy mountains and it was an easy job, but unfortunately, the weather hindered them from completing it on time.
Though the environment was to their advantage, risking being caught in a snowstorm was not part of their plan. Those fugitive mages they were tracking down won’t be able to leave the mountain anyway, so they decided to find a temporary shelter.
As the inn was the only lodging place they could find around the area, they didn’t have any options and it was Gray who decided that they would just share the room. It’s not like it was the first time they would be doing that.
It’s been a few months since the chaotic hundred years quest ended and Gray’s team returned. Within those months Juvia has gone on missions with the ice mage a few times.
The first one was her idea.
She noticed how Gray was no longer trying to pretend to avoid her or deflect her affections, so she tried her luck and asked him to go on a job together. He agreed, saying that would be a good way to catch up with each other after such a long time of not working together.  That one time was followed by another and then some more until going on missions more than a few times in a month became a routine. Unless necessary, Gray rarely went on a mission with his team. Most of the time it was him asking her to go on those jobs together.
To say that the water mage was happy about the sudden change between them was an understatement.
She was ecstatic.
In the past, it was always her initiating everything. She was the one asking Gray to go out with her, go on missions with her, and eat out with her. But recently it was him asking her to do things with him despite all the lame reasons he was giving every time that he did so.
Unable to force herself to sleep, Juvia opened her eyes and studied the empty wall of the room in front of her. Behind her, she could feel the slight rise and fall of Gray’s breathing.
When the battle is over, I’ll give you my answer…
She’s my power to live…
Out of nowhere, those words echoed in her head as her hand clutched the edge of her pillow.
Juvia knew without a doubt how Gray feels about her.
It’s certain that she occupies a place in his heart and she’s glad that Gray was getting more comfortable when it comes to showing his emotions. It’s just that she can’t stop herself from thinking of how long they are going to keep their unclear understanding.
With that thought, a wistful smile tugged on the sides of her lips.
Of course, if Gray didn’t want to do anything about it, she won’t force him. But at the end of the day, she’s still just a human and she could not avoid having hopes and expectations.
Deep inside her, she knew she was yearning for that answer that he promised her.
There were things she wanted to do and say but cannot due to their current relationship as nakamas who obviously harbor romantic feelings for each other but without an actual romantic relationship.
Her thoughts were futile.
There’s no point in thinking about such things. She had long proclaimed what she feels, and she already did what she had to do about her feelings in excessive ways. It’s no longer up to her how her relationship with Gray would further develop. If worse comes to worst, she could just continue loving him in her own way and cast away her hopes.
With that in mind, Juvia told herself to sleep and rest because she’ll need her energy to complete their mission when morning comes. She sighed once more and tried to block her train of thoughts that kept on nagging her.
When the wind blew once more, she unconsciously tugged her blanket to ward off the cold, but somehow it got tangled up with one of Gray’s legs and she felt the man behind her shift along with the force of her movement. He rolled on his other side and he’s now facing her back. She bit down on her lip when she felt his breath at the back of her head.
“Juv…”
Juvia’s body went rigid when she heard a low voice that seemed to be calling her name. Was Juvia dreaming already? She asked herself confusedly. Or maybe she was thinking too much and just hearing things?
But she was sure that it was Gray’s voice that she heard.
Was he sleep talking and calling out her name?
“Juvia,” there it goes again and this time it wasn’t just Gray’s voice that she could hear. She could also feel his hand on her side as his arm slowly moved around her waist. With a gentle tug, he pulled her closer to his chest and buried his face in the crook of her neck. “Can’t sleep?” he asked in a sleepy voice, his hot breath tickling her sensitive skin.
Juvia’s own breathing halted as her heartbeat hammered inside her chest, her face flushed and her mind frozen.
What just happened?
What is Gray-sama doing?!
Since Gray’s face was on Juvia’s neck, she felt it when his mouth moved, and a smile formed on his lips. “G-Gray-s-sama?”
“Hmm?”
Juvia swallowed hard when she heard his sexy hum. She was certain it was still snowing outside, and the temperature was still freezing cold, but she could feel herself heating up.
She had shared a room and a bed with Gray before. More than a few times, she had embraced and tackled him. They also shared a few physical contacts before, but as far as Juvia could remember, Gray had never initiated such intimate physical interaction.
“Gray-sama,” she called out again and though she didn’t stutter, her voice was a little hoarse. “Wh-why are you holding Juvia like this?”
Instead of responding to her question, Gray only tightened his arm around her. With how close their bodies were, Juvia could feel that she was not the only one whose heart was beating fast. After a few minutes of silence with only their breathing filling the room, Gray finally said something. “Am I not allowed to hold you like this?”
What?
Did she hear him right?
How was she supposed to answer that?
Obviously, she won’t stop him from holding her like that. But there’s more to that question that made her unable to think properly.
Juvia was just thinking about so many things, but why is Juvia’s mind suddenly blank!?  Juvia thought as she nibbled her lip.
The sudden turn of events was something she wasn’t expecting at all!
In the silence of the night Gray’s chuckle resonated within the room. “Don’t think too much about it,” he whispered. “I love you.”

Summary: Before Juvia knew it, she was in one of the private rooms of the church, getting one last good look at herself before it was time to begin her walk. She was never particularly happy with the girl who stared back at her. Still, today the mirror reflected an empty image, almost as if Juvia was never there, to begin with.

Pizza Date
Summary: Gruvia pizza date. That’s all! 
Also on: 
AO3 & FFN
He’s so pretty. 
Juvia idly stared at Gray while they were watching their current show together. Recently, Gray had ever-so-smoothly gotten into the habit of getting Juvia to come to his apartment for dinner most evenings after hanging out at the guild. 
They spent almost every waking moment together, until one of them went on a job or Gray said he would walk her home after they were done hanging out. She knew she just had to continue being patient and he would work up the nerve to actually say anything to her about his actions. 
For now, they were in a limbo of knowing each other's feelings and neither of them really doing much about it. 
Juvia’s attitude hadn’t changed, other than being more patient with Gray in moments like this. While Gray’s attitude was slowly evolving. He was treating Juvia like a boyfriend would - walking her home, taking her out for food, watching shows together, dancing exclusively together at events. The list could go on really. 
Juvia knew if she pushed him too far, all this lovely progress would be lost. So, she stayed as calm as she could when he asked her what she felt like eating that night when they were sitting together at the guild earlier that day. 
Simply stating she was a little tired and felt like a pizza takeout. Although her voice didn’t shake, her face was almost glowing red at that moment she was sure of it. 
They were currently relaxing on either end of his couch, as they usually do. With Gray focusing a little too hard on the show, and Juvia trying to watch the show but inevitably getting distracted. 
His shirt had been thrown off hours ago, Juvia was nearly 100% sure that he had left it at the guild this time. His black sweatpants were low on his hips as he slouched with his feet resting on his coffee table. 
It took all of Juvia’s strength to not jump into his lap and wrap her arms around him when he looked like that. He was being everything but physically attentive in recent weeks, which just made her want him that much more. 
As her finger twitched in consideration, just to lean over and touch his arm, his doorbell rang, making both of them jump and look at the wooden door to his living room. 
“Guess our pizza’s here. Do you mind getting plates?” Gray spoke smoothly, looking at her with his usual calm demeanour. Totally oblivious to the battle in her mind. 
“Yeah,” she managed to huff out and scurried towards his kitchen as he made his way to the front door. 
She quickly reached for two plates and placed them on the countertop in front of her. She fanned a hand before her face, trying to cool down and get rid of her impulsive thoughts so that she could try to enjoy the rest of her evening with Gray. 
“Alright, here we go.” Gray swerved into his kitchen with a large pizza box and various small boxes on top. “I hope you don’t mind a regular stuffed crust, they said they ran out of that garlic cheese stuff that you like.” 
He remembered my favourite cheese?! 
“I also ordered some cookies for us to have afterwards. I know you’re a huge sweet tooth and they’re also so good from this place too. You’d really like the-”
Juvia cut off his words by storming up to him, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling his face down to kiss him directly on the lips. 
He, first of all, made a confused step back which she mimicked by stepping forward, refusing to let him go. After a beat, he wrapped one hand around her waist and placed the other on the back of her neck. He kissed her back just as hard as she initiated. The force of his affection brought her back to the counter where he had placed the pizza. 
She let out a small moan as he slipped his tongue into her mouth. At the noise he grabbed her impossibly closer, his fingers grabbing her hair to tilt her head to his desired angle. 
Her arms detangle from around his neck to grab at his face, neck, hair, wherever she could reach during this mindless makeout session. 
Gray allowed her to touch him wherever she pleased in those moments, without hesitating she skimmed one hand down to the waistband of his sweats to pull their hips together, making him groan deeply into her mouth. 
This was officially the best day of her life. He was actually kissing her back! 
She pulled back suddenly when she realised what she had done. Staring up at him total shock, only to him staring down at her while heavy breathing. She blinked twice before looking down at their tangled arms. He still had one hand in her hair, while the other was so low on her back, he may as well take a handful of her ass while he was at it. 
“Well, that was overdue.” Gray breathed out, making Juvia look up at him again. A soft smile graced his face before he leaned his forehead on hers. “Sorry that you had to make the first move. I was really trying to find an opening without making it seem like I was only inviting you over to.. Well, you know.” 
“Juvia would be fine if you wanted to invite her over for that,” she smiled shyly up at him before removing her grip from his waistband to rest her hand on his chest. 
Gray chuckled at her statement. 
“Yeah, I know.” He muttered. “But I have more respect for you than to take advantage of that fact.” 
He kissed her softly on the cheek before burying his head in her neck. Juvia let out a breath before leaning her head against his and holding him just as tight as he was her. 
She was completely lost in the moment they were sharing. Thinking about how warm his body felt against hers, how surprisingly soft his hair was, and how his breath gave a slight tickle on her neck. 
While lost in her imagination, she heard a deep rumble come from between them and then a laugh burst from Gray. 
“Oh, I guess we forgot about the food!” He leaned back from her with a glowing smile on his face. “Come on, let’s eat.” 
He slowly let go of her and reached for a couple of slices of pizza to load onto his chosen plate. Juvia, now on auto-pilot, silently followed suit by arranging her own plate and then back to the couch. 
Without thinking, Juvia sat in her usual spot on the couch and rested her plate food on her lap. What surprised her was Gray taking the spot directly beside her to eat together, casually raising his closest arm to wrap around her shoulders while he used his free hand to eat his own pizza. 
Why is he acting like this is normal behaviour for him? 
She tried to keep up with the light commentary he was making on whatever show they were watching, even making some comments herself, although she had totally lost track of the name and plot by now. 
When her plate was empty, Juvia leaned over to rest her plate against the table. Gray quickly followed suit with his own.  
On his way leaning back, he used his free hand to lift Juvia's legs to rest over his own as he leaned in to kiss her again. 
Out of shock, Juvia leaned away and blinked at him which caused him to pause.
“You good?” She felt his thumb rub over her thigh as he spoke. “Juvia?” 
“What’s going on?” Juvia managed to stutter out. 
“Well, I was hoping we could make out on the couch right about now.” Gray said with a slight blush. “But no rush if you’re not ready!” 
He was about to lean back when Juvia grabbed him back. 
“No!” She yelled “I just- I really like this affectionate side of you. It’s really sweet.” 
“Ahh, sorry. I guess now that the ice is broken I was getting carried away.” Gray looked at her dead in the eye and tilted his head to the side. “But isn’t this how guys are supposed to treat their girlfriends?”
Juvia squeaked and covered her mouth with her finger tips. 
“Girlfriends?!” Her voice was muffled by her fingers and she looked at Gray with huge eyes.
“Well, yeah? I thought we were on the same page about that for a while now.” Gray looked more confused than Juvia looked surprised. 
“Wait, don’t tell me I forgot to ask you!” Gray, now looking back at Juvia with equally wide eyes, shot back and put his head in his hands. “Oh no, I really thought I asked ages ago. I had a whole plan and everything when we went to that butterfly exhibit.” 
Watching Gray be the one to freak out over the nature of their connection for the first time, made Juvia relax and even giggle a little. Which made him look at her with absolute devastation. 
“You know, you don’t really need to ask me. It’s not as if my answer is a secret.” Juvia smiled kindly and sat up straight on the couch. 
“Yeah, that’s true.” Gray smiled at her and grabbed both of her hands. “You deserve to be asked though.” 
“No.” Juvia shook her head. “I deserve you.”

Please may I have a Fairy tail fluff scenario and obviously the Gruvia couple are married and everything with two children, you (their eldest daughter only eight years old *she is a water mage and everything*) and Greige Fullbuster only a year old (their youngest son). It was when Lyon and Meredy came round to Juvia's and Gray's place for dinner with their daughter, Jane who is the same age as you (Jane is your childhood friend) and she wanted to test something out much to your confusion when she asked you to bring Greige to the living room *your parents trusted you considering how good you are with your baby brother and you are a good kid anyways*. You said that you didn't really believe that it was going to work considering that Greige was only a baby *you and Jane were sitting in front of him on the living room floor and in front of Greige was several items on a blanket that were meant to represent what he would value most in life..a pen meant that he would value a career, a dollar bill meant that he would value money and a felt heart would mean that he would value love etc..
Imagine your surprise when Greige practically pushed those items aside to crawl over to you..you didn't realise that you were one of the choices when he practically went over to hug you. You practically cried when he did that big time..it was a sweet sight to see, you told Greige that you loved him too *you hugged him in a gentle manner*. You almost worried your parents *they rushed into the living room* but they were quick enough to catch on to why you were crying a bit (once Jane explained)..it was rare when you cried so it was bit of a surprise for Gray and Juvia.

Knock knock.
Knocking could be heard from the door of the home Juvia was first to react to the knocking on the door. "Don't worry darling I'll get the door. Continue setting the table!" Juvia spoke as she approached the door to the home.
Unlocking the door and opening it the guests for tonight's dinner. It was Lyon and his wife Meredy. However, they were not the only ones as their daughter Jane was also with them.
Dinner is something that the two families would have often together. It was a good way to keep in contact and have their children play and get to know each other. Of course, just like the many precious dinner nights, Jane was excited to see Y/N and Greige.
"Ah Lyon, Meredy it's nice to see you again! Oh and if isn't little Jane look how big you've gotten please come in!" Juvia greeted the three of them as she led them to the dining room and closed the door.
Juvia turned to Jane and bent down to be at eye level with her. "Y/N and Greige are just in the living room go on in they'll be happy to see you!" Juvia spoke as she turned away and spoke with the others.
"Thanks!" Jane spoke as she held her backpack and went into the living room to see Y/N and Greige. Jane was your childhood friend and you trusted her very much. You got along well with her and were always happy to see her.
"Hi Y/N! Hi Greige!" Jane spoke as she entered the living room and sat next to you and Greige. "Jane!" You spoke happily as you hugged her excited to see your best friend again.
Greige didn't say anything instead just opting to wave. Jane laughed as the two of you parted from the hug. "I'm happy to see you again as well Y/N. But look here I've got something to show you!"
Jane spoke as she set down her backpack opening it and taking out multiple items. She placed all of these items down on a red blanket. "What's with all this Jane?" Y/N spoke confused as Greige just watched.
"Well, I'm glad you asked Y/N! All of these items represent your desires or goals. Such a dollar bill represents the need and want of money. Or this pen represents the want for a good career in your future!
"However this isn't for you but instead Greige! Yes, he's super young but still! I want to see what he would choose. So go on Geiger choose one if you have questions just ask!"
Taking a moment to listen to what Jane had to say Greige started to move. Both you and Jane watched him with curious eyes to see what he would choose. However, both of you were surprised when Greige moved the items out of the way and hugged you.
"I choose Y/N..." Greige spoke as he held onto you. You were shocked at first but that was soon overwhelming with happy tears. You hugged Greige back while crying.
"Oh, I love you too Greige! You are the best little brother I could have asked for!" Hearing the crying Juvia rushed into the room. "What's going on is everything alright?"
Juvia spoke in a panic worried one of you might have gotten hurt. "Oh no it's fine they were just..." Jane went on to explain what happened and why you hugged Greige. Now knowing what happened Juvia's heart melted at the sight and was glad you both got along so well.

hello, again - a nalu fanfic
synopsis: lucy heartfilia recently moved back to her hometown after leaving for the big city 6 years prior. she then runs into familiar faces like natsu dragneel- her old best friend- in the worst way possible. now trying to rekindle their friendship, will it develop into something more than just best friends?
chapter 1: hello
A little bit of background information: Magnolia -small coastal town
Lucy pov- 6 years prior, age 12
-
"Wait... what?" I said in disbelief. "We're... moving? Why?!"
"Your dads business is starting to grow honey! If we move to the city, he can make it grow even bigger!" Mom said. Dad nods his head in agreement, "If the business ends up growing bigger, you will be able to do anything and everything you've ever wanted!"
I looked at them both. They both had smiles on their faces trying to sell their argument, but it wasn't working.
"But what if I'm fine with the life we have now? Maybe I don't want to us to be super duper rich. Maybe I want to have a peaceful life in Magnolia. What if I'm not built for city life!?" I questioned hysterically. I didn't want to move- I wanted to stay here! Mom bit her lip and looked down. She knew I didn't want to move to begin with, and I think she doesn't want to leave either. She's probably going along with Dad so he's happy.
Mom opened her mouth to speak, but Dad cut her off, "Listen Lucy, we've already listed the house for sale and bought a new one. We're moving in one week so y..."
I just zoned out for the rest of his speech. I didn't want to hear it. I didn't want to be in this house right now. I wanted to go to our safe spot. After Dad stopped talking, I hummed to what he said and walked outside and down to the beach. I heard Mom yell after me, but I didn't respond. Just leave me alone.
As I walked, I texted Natsu: Lucy meet me at our spot, k? Natsu sure
Later
When I got to the beach, I went to our usual area and sat down in the sand. The sun was setting and the ocean waves were weak. I hugged my knees close to my chest and let the previous conversation sink in. We were moving and I had to tell Natsu. How would he react? Would he be sad, disappointed, angry, or all of the above?
"Hey Luce, what's going on?" Natsu said as he walked up and sat right next to me. I didn't respond at first, I just kept staring at the ocean. But then he started poking me. "Will you stop that!" I yelled, slapping his hand away. "Tell me what's wrong then dimwit!" he yelled back. I sighed and sat facing him, holding both his hands in mine. He furrowed his right eyebrow and looked confused. I took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and let it out speedy quick:
"I just found out that I'm moving in one week because my dad's trying to grow his business and thinks we'll do better in the city than out here."
He just stared at me for a second and then started chuckling in a low tone. "That's not a very funny joke Lucy. I know I'm usually the funnier friend, but you really need to tone up your jokes. Maybe you should start taking notes from me."
"Do you really think I would joke about this?!"
"Maybe...?"
I sighed again and frowned, "I really wish I was Natsu, but I'm being for real. I'm sorry."
I felt the tears in my eyes start to fall down my cheeks. He knew I wasn't joking now. He just squeezed my hands and brought me in for a hug. That's when I started to break down, started to cry hysterically like I had just broken a bone. "What am I supposed to do now..?!"
"I... I don't know." He said in a broken tone and dug his face into my shoulder, embracing me now since he wouldn't be able to in the future.
Present Day- age 18
It was raining when I strolled up to the old academy. I transferred to Fairy Tail Academy, which is a high school in my hometown. I was finally back! Would anyone remember me? Would Natsu remember me? Will he still want to be friends with me?
I took a deep breath and opened the door to my car and bolted to the front doors of the academy, trying not to get soaked. Dad drove in a separate car and arrived here before me so he could help me with everything. He was already in the front office when I got inside.
After meeting and consulting with the principal, I was given my schedule, a map of the school, and my dorm room number. By the time the meeting ended, it had stopped raining, but was still cloudy outside. We walked to my car and took out my belongings in silence.
We got to my dorm and I opened the door slowly. It was kind of a big room with two twin beds, two desks, two dressers, a couch, and a coffee table. Not gonna lie, I kinda vibed with it. We walked inside and placed my things down on the unoccupied part of the room.
"Ok Dad, I can take it from here. Thank you" I said. He gave me a sad expression and hugged me, "I'm gonna miss you sweetie. I know you're gonna be more happy back here than at home. Just try not to get into too much trouble- and no drugs!"
"I know. I'll miss you too," I chuckled and then looked up at him from the hug, " and I can't make any promises."
"Not funny. But I'll go ahead and leave you now so you can start unpacking."
"Bye Dad"
He waved goodbye and walked off. I closed the door to my dorm and looked around, observing my roommates decorated side. She had lots of books lying around and a framed picture of a jacked-up scary looking guy with lots of piercings snuggling with a black cat. It was kinda cute.
Suddenly, the doorknob starting jiggling and the door opened. In came a tiny girl with blue hair and two big books. She looked at me and her face started to light up.
"OH MY GOD! You must be Lucy!" she said, grabbing my hand to shake it. "My name's Levy, I'll be your roommate!" She's very lively, you can say that for sure.
"Oh, hi! Nice to meet you Levy."
"Do you need help with anything?" she asked.
"Uhh, not right now really. I was thinking of going to get a soda from the vending machine down the hall in a second, and then was gonna start unpacking."
"Oh, well the vending machine in the girls dorms is broken so we usually go to the boys to steal from theirs. I can totally show you the way!"
Did I want to go to the boys dorm? No. Did I want my soda? Hell yes. "Lead the way then!"
Levy nodded and I followed her to the building next to the one we were in. As we walked into the boys dorm, it immediately turned into a hectic scene; boys arguing in some rooms, loud music blasting from others.
I put my money into the vending machine and pressed the button for my soda. It dropped loudly in the machine, and when I opened it, it sprayed all over my face! How hard was this shaken beforehand?!
"ARE YOU OKAY LUCY?!" Levy asked frantically, "Hold up, I'll-"
She was caught off by someone bursting out into a fit of laughter. I turned my head to see the person and was shocked. He was bent over holding his stomach from laughing hard, and even though his face wasn't showing, I could tell who it was just from the hair color.
"Natsu...?!"
He finally stopped laughing and looked up. His face went blank as he looked at me with his mouth open wide.
"Lucy...?"
-

First date
Happy Gruvia day 2022! 🤍
A/N: I was supposed to post this during  Gruvia week but never did so this has been in my drafts for five months until I decided to finish this. I haven’t written in a year so this is super messy but I still hope you like it.
This fic is inspired by @annluvazzelvazzel ‘s art 🥰
___
Gray looked at the park clock when he arrived at the meeting spot. He was right on time and surprised him but what surprised him even more was that there was water mage in sight. She was always on time. By ten minutes, atleast, so this made him worry. 
He was pacing back and forth as uneasy thoughts took over. 
Was she okay? Was she hurt? Did she regret going on the date with him? Did she realise that… she didn’t love him anymore? 
‘’Gray-Samaaa!’’ Thank goodness a voice, a very familiar voice made him snap out of his terrible thoughts.
As he looked in the direction the voice came from, he saw Juvia. She was running as fast as she could towards him.  She was wearing black boots that came all the way up to her thighs, a black mini skirt with a pink ish turtleneck and to top it off, on her head she wore a black beret. Gray was taken aback by her outfit, seeing it be the complete opposite of what she usually wore but it didn’t make her any less beautiful. It suited her.
‘’Juvia’s so sorry she’s late!’’ She held her hands on her knees as she was breathing heavily from all the running. 
‘’That’s okay’’ Gray started ‘’By the way you… you look beautiful’’ He avoided eye contact as that took all of his courage to compliment her. 
‘’Really?! Oh Gray-Sama~’’ Juvia attacked him with a hug, making his cheeks turn bright red. 
‘’Juvia wasn’t sure if Gray-Sama would like her outfit because it’s so different than usual but that makes her so happy! Thank you! And Gray-Sama  looks very handsome’’ She complimented him back, flashing him the brightest smile. 
‘’T-thanks’’ Gray thanked her as they both let go of the embrace. ‘’Anyway…shall we?’’ He looked at her this time, with a little smile and held out his hand for her to take. 
‘’Yes, we shall’’ She placed her hand in his and they walked together  to begin their first date. 
A very special day that would never be forgotten.
