It was just a normal day in Fairy Tail guild as always. There is fighting,screaming and war as always.its evening time right now. Lucy and Levy looks at everyone being rowdy and sighs but smiles
Gray and Natsu are busy fighting and Gajeel joins them too.
Lucy"This is quite normal. Afterall fairy tail wouldn't be fairy tail without these fights?"
Levy"Right!"
Erza sighs"They are quite rowdy".
Wendy "Its probably we are all finally together in the guild again" she smiles
Suddenly Wendy spots Juvia sulking alone on a table. Juvia has her buried on the table with her hands over her head.
Wendy says"W-what happened to Juvia-san?"
Levy,Lucy and Erza turns to see Juvia.
Levy "She has been like this for a while now..."
Carla"That's unusual she is so lively"
Lucy"But she was fine in the morning what happened to her all of a sudden?"
Erza"Let's check on her if she's okay"
They all sit with her on the table. Juvia doesn't seems to notice and she still has her head buried on the table and one
Levy"Hey.... Juvia are you okay? What's wrong?
Lucy pats Juvia's back rubbing it"Did Gray said something to you?"
Erza" I can have a talk with Gray if you want? What happened did you guys fought?"
Juvia shakes her head but doesn't raises her head
Wendy notices Juvia rubbing her abdomen.
Wendy"Juvia-san does your stomach hurts?"
Juvia shakes her head again
And Suddenly Lucy realises"Wait! Juvia...."She whispers"Are you on your period?"
Juvia nods
Levy gives a sigh of relief"Oh.... I thought something terrible happened."
Carla"Same."
Erza pats Juvia"Don't worry it will get better soon".
Juvia sniffs"It hurts..... Juvia had never had such painful period cramps before. Its hurting her back and its down her legs"
Wendy"That sounds terrible. I can use my healing magic to relieve it for a while"
Wendy uses her healing magic on Juvia and it did relieve her cramps
Erza"You could have just went home if you wanted you know Juvia?"
Juvia"It hurts so much that Juvia didn't had the strength to move. It never hurt this much before. So why is it hurting so much now?"
Levy smiles assuringly"Sometimes it happens"
Erza"Juvia just go home and have a nap it will be better"
Juvia"Where is Gray-sama?"
Wendy"Oh... Gray-san already left"
Juvia sulks even more"He didn't even care to check on Juvia?"She pouts.
Carla and Wendy gives an awkward smile
Erza"Actually I did saw him looking at you when we came here to check on you and he looked quite concern. He probably didn't come over since he saw us taking care of you."
Juvia now happy"Juveen". Suddenly cramps kick in again and she screams"WAAAAAAH!" She sulks again
Levy"Oh dear"
Lucy pats her"Hey take it easy go home safe and take a rest. We still have things to take care of in the guild."
Erza gives Juvia a reassuring smile"Reach home safe and eat something warm"
Juvia pouts sulking"Okay...."
Juvia leaves. Its 6 pm right now. As she walks for a while suddenly the cramps get worst maybe Wendy's healing wore off? Her abdomen and back are hurting and the pain touches her nerves reaching down her legs. She tears up a bit"May be Juvia should get some pain-killers."
She keeps walking but her legs starts shaking a lot. That she falls on her knees"It hurts... It hurts a lot...."
Suddenly Gray who was also walking in the snow spots her and he remembers how sulky she was in the guild he runs towards her.
"JUVIA!"Gray shouts"WHAT HAPPENED?!Are you hurt?." Gray bends down to her fallen figure and grabs her hands.
Juvia looks at Gray with tears in her eyes and she is shaking"G-Gray-sama...."
Gray suddenly getting all protective"Juvia.... Who the hell made you cry....? I will....."
Juvia"No... Its uh.... Girls problem"
Gray calms down"Oh..... Cramps? Does it hurts?"
Juvia nods"A lot." Juvia legs are shaking from the pain it had reached from her abdomen to back to her legs via nerves.
Gray concern looks at her"Would you be able to wal-"
Before Gray could finish his sentence Juvia suddenly collapses.
"JUVIA!"Gray shouts.
Gray picks her up and carries her and starts walking towards his home. As Gray carries her he wonders"It must really hurt a lot if it caused her to faint."
Gray reaches his home with Juvia in his arm and Juvia is conscious again
"Gray-sama......"
Gray gives her an assuring smile"Its okay... Everything will be fine."
Gray lies her down to the couch and ask
"Have you eaten something?"
Juvia shaking"N-no... Juvia didn't feel like it...cause she felt nauseous."
Gray "You should eat something." Gray goes and comes back with a warm melon bread and gives it to her.
"Here eat."
Juvia bites it and she sniffs tears forming at the corner of her eyes as she chewed on the bread.
Gray wipes her tears and pats her"Don't cry it will be okay."
Juvia blushes hard"Juvia is embarrassed."
Gray pats her head"There is nothing to be ashamed of its normal."
Juvia sulking"It never hurt this much before.... Why now....?"
Gray gives her warm milk to drink
Juvia"T-thank you".
"You should probably sleep"Gray says.
"You can sleep on my bed tonight."
Juvia suddenly blushing"JUVIA AND GRAY-SAMA ARE GOING TO SLEEP TOGETHER!!!!"She exclaims excitedly. Suddenly the cramps kicks in again hitting her nerves again and she screams falling on the ground"WAAAAAAAAH!!! IT HURTS"
Gray catches her"Hey there.... Easy. Don't move too much you are in pain. I will sleep on the couch."
Juvia looks at Gray with puppy eyes"You will leave Juvia own her own.....?" Gray blushes a bit looking a bit annoyed.
Gray carries her towards his room"If you need something just wake me up." He tucks her to the bed putting the blanket around her giving her a head pat.
"Goodnight." He smiles
As Gray leaves the room he realises maybe he should give her a hot water back. As Gray warms the water he hears snifflings. Gray concern goes back to the room and shes Juvia cover her entire face sniffling. Gray goes towards the bed and finds are crying and shaking.
Gray concerned" Hey.... Does it really hurts this much?"
Juvia"Y-y-yes....."
Gray wipes her tears and says"Just wait for a moment.... I will get the hot water bag for you."
Gray goes back and brings the hot water bag"Here...." He gives it to her slightly blushing.
"T-t-thanky y-you...." She takes it with her hands shaking.
Gray suddenly tells her"Move over".
Juvia confused does as he says and Gray lays next to her. Juvia flustered
"EH?!"
Gray blushes"Shhh....." He holds her.
"Just try to fall asleep okay?"
Juvia nods tiredly. Her energy seems to have left her body.
Gray presses his chest against her back as be holds her and pating her occasionally. Gray wonders"She must be so tired. Her usually energetic gesture is gone... Atleast she is asleep now. Hopefully she will get better by tomorrow."
The day its morning and Gray wakes up with Juvia in his arm. She looks peaceful as she is asleep. On an impulse Gray suddenly kisses her forehead. Gray realises and he gets up flustered"What did I just do?!" He wondered.
Gray goes out of the room and starts preparing breakfasts. He later comes to check on Juvia and she is awake. When Juvia sees him she screamed for joy and dashed towards him"GRAY-SAMA!!!!!!"
But cramps kick in again(It was just the 2nd day after all) and she sulks again falling on Gray due to the pain and they both fall on the floor.
Gray irritated"Juvia.... Don't do this you are still in pain."
Gray brings her breakfast to eat and she barely was able to eat like her appetite was completely gone...
Juvia says"Gray-sama.... I think Juvia should go back to Fairy Hills".
Gray concerned"Why? What's wrong being here? Are you uncom-"
Juvia hesitantly"No..... Its just that Juvia needs........"she whispers"pad".
Gray"Oh.... You should've told me.... There was no need to be be so reluctant".
Juvia"Sorry....."
Gray pats her head"I will go to the shop rn and get it for you."
Gray goes to the market and he sees the pads but he get confused seeing all the different brands and wonders
"Which one am I suppose to get.....? He is confused and his head is spinning.
He picks up one packet"May be the cotton one? Or the gel one? Damn... I have no idea."
Gray suddenly alarmed"Wait! I need to be quick I can't have Juvia keep waiting! But I am not sure which one to get......" Gray's head starts spinning trying to figure out until Lucy spots him.
"Gray.... What's up? What you doing here?" Lucy asked and Cana is with her
Gray"Oh.... I was trying to......."
Cana smirks"Juvia....? So she's with you...."
Gray flustered and irritated"No...I mean..."
Lucy says"There is no point in denying its too obvious."
Gray hides his face with his palm"Stop..." He then realises"Crap! I am taking too much I can't keep Juvia waiting"
Lucy"Oh you wanna buy pads?" Gray nods"Yes."
Cana raises an eyebrow"Then just buy one why the fuss?"
Gray"Cuz I don't know which one to get..."
Lucy and Cana looks at each other and sighs.
Cana facepalming"You are a complete idiot you know who could have just picked up anyone of these its no big deal..."
Gray astonishing"Really?"
Lucy picks out a random pack and hands it over to Gray"Yes... Just take this... You didn't have to fuss so much over this...."
Gray embarrassed"Oh okay.... Thank you..."
Gray leaves and Lucy and Cana laughs softly to themselves.
Gray reaches the home and hands over Juvia the pack and Juvia goes and change. Juvia in her mind"Gray-sama took too long it almost leaked" Juvia groans in pain "owwwwww."
As Juvia is done Gray sits beside her"You should probably rest.... Just lie down."
Juvia eyes are droopy staring at Gray she suddenly looks pale
Gray"Juvia.... Ok what's wrong with you?!" He grabs her by the shoulder"Juvi-"
Without warning Juvia suddenly pukes on him.
Gray screams"ACKKKKKKKKKKK!"
Juvia realised what she did and she's embarrassed and her face is all red"GRAY-SAMA! JUVIA IS SO SORRYYYYY" Her cramps hurts again "Owwwww!"
Gray awkwardly lies her down to the bed"Its okay.... You are sick..."
Gray goes out of the room to clean himself"Damn.... Period cramps really sucks doesn't it...?"
Gray after he cleaned himself goes out of the bathroom and enters the room to check on Juvia and he sees her lying motionless,her eyes open and looking full and she is not moving...
Gray extremely concerned comes near"Juvia..... Are you alive...?"
Juvia turns to Gray and giggles"No one dies cuz of a period cramps Gray-sama."
Gray grabs her hand and brings it closer to his face. Gray pouts blushing a bit"Well you were acting like a dead person...."
Juvia giggles"Gray-sama is worried about Juvia....." Period cramps hurt and she sulks"AHHHHHH........."
Gray holds her hand rubbing it"Shhhhhhh I am here...... Just sleep."As Juvia falls asleep Gray kisses her hand and then leaves.
Juvia sleeps till the afternoon and she wakes up fine and the cramps doesn't hurt that bad either.
Juvia hugs Gray and he awkwardly let's her hug him. Juvia exclaims"GRAY-SAMA!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING CARE OF JUVIA,SHE IS SO GRATEFUL!!!!!" Gray blushes and pays Juvia's head"Well it was my...job...."
Gray asks"So you can go back now...?"
Juvia nods"Yes... But Juvia wants to be together with Gray-sama......" She pouts.
Gray pats her head"We will soon be..."
Juvia looks at him turning all red"eh?!"
Gray smirks ruffling her hair"Not so bold now huh?"
Juvia's blush deepens further and Gray gives out a soft chuckle"I will walk you till Fairy Hills."
As they both walk towards the destination and reaches the place Gray suddenly pulls Juvia by her hand and says
"Take care. Sleep a lot and eat a lot okay? Stay safe you are still not fully recovered you are still tired."
Juvia says"Yes!" happily"Once again,Thank you so much Gray-sama."
Gray gives her a last head pat with a smile"You are welcome...."
As Juvia goes inside and Gray starts to leave he thinks about Juvia and all the moments he shared with her and walks home smiling like a fool.
