Gray Pov

I sat at the back of the class. It was English. The one and only lesson I had with Juvia away from her friends. My head laid down on the table and my eyes closed, trying to catch up on some sleep.

"Gray," a voice pulled me out of my dream, I looked up. "Can I sit here?" She indicated to the empty spot next to me, my eyes quickly ran around the room. I nodded and she sat down.

"Why?"

"Why what?" She repiled.

"There are still seats in the room." She looked down, her long blue hair covering her face.

She shrugged, "I know." I nodded and decided not to ask anymore.

"Can I ask you something?" She said after a few seconds of silence.

I nodded "What is it?"

"Its not something to ask here." Through my bangs I could see her face slowly turning pink. "Why don't you come over to my house later today?" My head shot up, my face in question. She nodded. I calmed down and lowered my head again. She took out a pen and wrote her address down on my notebbok.

Juvia Pov

"Juvia!" Wendy bounced up to me the moment I entered the house, warping her arms around me. "Play with me."

I smiled "Sure, let me go change first." She nodded her head and u went to change inyo my home shirt and shorts.

"Yay! Juvia! Let's play!" She held out one of her barbie for me and pulled me to the dollhouse sitting in the center of the room. We played till it was late afternoon, Wendy started to yawn so she went to take a nap.

Where is Gray? As if reading my thoughts,  the door bell rang.

"Gray." I breathed when I opened the door. I stepped aside to allow him to enter. Although his clothes were cleaned, I could tell from his fave that he has been attacked by none other than my gang.

"Juvia." He mumbled and stepped into the house. His eyes amazed at the sight in front of him.

"Take a seat." I gestured to the couch, my face heating up. "Can I get you anything to eat?"

"That would be nice." For a second, a second only, I caught a glimpse of his smile and felt my heart flutter. I came back with me a ham&cheese snadwhich.

He accepted it "Aren't you going to eat?" I shook my head. There was silence as he took serval bites.

"So, you wanted to ask me something."

Gray Pov

She dropped her head, covering her face with her hair again. Placing the snadwhich on the table, I held her chin and titled her till our eyes met. I flashed her a tiny grin and she chuckled a bit.

"You sure you want me to ask?" I dropped my hand and this time, I chuckled.

I pulled my sleeve up to my elbow "Its about this right?" Her fcae was shock written as she syared at the scars that covered both my wrist. Her gaze lifted back up to my face. "You want to know more about it?"

She nodded, embarrassed "If you don't mind."

"But it will cost you."

"What?"

"In exchange you have to tell me about you."

"What about me?"

"Don't play dumb. I know its you I heard in the barhroom the other day." Her fcae turned into a deep sheep of scarlet.

"We won't tell anyone about each other?"

"Deal?" She held out her pinky and curled it up with mine.

Wendy Pov

When I woke up and went down, I saw a strange guy with Juvia laughing. I felt my lips pulled up a little at the edge. Its been a long time since I saw her laugh.
