Character(s): Gray, Juvia
Grayâs hand hovered over the door right as he was about to knock. A knot formed in his stomach as he continued to stand there, hesitating.
Should he knock? Would this be a good time?
Gray bit his lip, cursing his nervousness. His hand wouldnât move.
âH-hey, Juvia?â he called through the door, his voice inadvertently cracking at her name. âAre you in there?â
There was no answer forthcoming, and after about another couple minutes of standing out in the hallway, he could no longer stand the pressure. His hand that had been frozen over the door swiftly moved down to the doorknobâwhich he turned and clicked open before he could think twice.
He pushed the door open slightly and peered inside brieflyâand he could indeed see Juvia there, sitting at the foot of their queen-size bed. Her light blue summer dress was rumpled against her figure, presumably from all the time sheâd wrung her fingers into the thin fabric. Her long navy blue hair cascaded down her shoulders and face, so Gray couldnât make out her expression. Her hands were tightly folded in her lap, her body posture tense and guardedâit was clear that she didnât want to be disturbed.
She didnât seem to notice him there, but he couldnât just leave her there alone after seeing her like this. He entered the room, carefully shutting the door behind him as he did so, and sat next to her on the bed. Gray tried to get a good look at her face, but the tangled locks of hair were making it difficult.
Juvia didnât indicate that she was aware of his presence.
ââŠJuvia.â Gray placed a hand over hersâJuvia flinched at the sudden contact and raised her gaze to meet his in shock. Her eyes were red-rimmedâsheâd been crying.
âG-Gray-samaâŠâ She lowered her head again, fiddling with the hem of her dress. âDidâŠdo you need something?â
ââŠYeahâŠjust one thing.â He took her hands into his and lifted them, surprising her once again into meeting his gazeâand this time, he made sure to hold it. âStop beating yourself up over this, okay? Itâs not your fault.â
Juvia could do no more than simply stare at him, stunned for a good minute before she bit her trembling lip and averted her gaze. âB-butâbut weââ
âBut nothing!â Gray abruptly released his hold on her handsâonly to pull her into a tight embrace. âListen, Juvia; not you nor anyone else is to blame for this, okay? It just so happens that this is how you were born. I know you feel otherwise, butââ His arms tensed around her still form. ââIâI donât mind at all. If we canât conceive on our ownâŠwe can always adopt. We can still raise a family.â
Juvia was silent at his words for a brief moment, but Gray could soon feel her trembling beneath his arms.
âGray-samaâŠ!â she whimpered, burying her face into his shoulder and weeping profusely. âJuâJuvia is s-sorryâshe justâIâonly want toâwant to h-have a babyâ!â
Juviaâs sobs grew until she could no longer speak coherently. All Gray was able to do now was hold her in his arms and provide her with whatever comfort he could offer.
They would never have children of their ownâŠbut that didnât mean they couldnât start a family.
