JUVIA'S DADDY
Chapter 1: You're my Daddy
It was a simple morning in Fairy tail, the guild members are having their usual celebration drinking booze, talking about the request they had just finished and how strong they have improved. Natsu's team is just chilling out eating their breakfast. Happy is happily eating a fish meal, Natsu is eating meat, Lucy is having her salad diet, Wendy is having waffles and Gray is just sitting with them while drinking some hot coffee.
"I wonder when will Erza arrive?" Lucy asked as she watched Natsu eating his meal. Erza has been gone for a month with Gajeel, Lisanna and Juvia to the neighboring land of Bosco to do a job for a farmer who is need of help catching the thieves who stole the crops and make it deliver to the northern land of Bosco. The reason why Natsu, Lucy, Wendy and Gray didn't come because Erza has just tagged along with Gajeel's team because Bosco have a monthly sale of new weapons and armors that Erza couldn't resist seeing them.
"I believe they just arrived Fiore and will be here any minute." Mira Jane said smiling cheerfully at them. "Lisanna told me they're just at the neighborhood and they're very busy, so let's just wait."
"Busy? Why would they be busy? They just finished the job right?" Natsu said muching his meat.
Gray just shrugged. "Who knows, maybe he just got dragged by the girls into shopping."
Natsu thought of this slowly looking at the ceiling then he laughed. "I bet that idiot is all tired out of carrying Erza's heck load of stuff by now!" he said imagining the situation Gajeel is in which is enjoyable to him.
"I kinda felt bad for Gajeel if that happens." Wendy said innocently.
Gray just sneered. "You're just happy you're not carrying her things as usual."
"You're carrying it at well!" Natsu said preparing his fists and knuckles.
"Are you looking for a fight?" Gray asked angrily as he removed his jacket as usual but he felt something grabbed his leg. "What? Stop!" Gray yelled as he looked down and blocked Natsu's attack.
"Stop the fight morons!" Erza's voice roared in the building. "Don't you dare fight with a child nearby!"
Natsu crouched down to see the little girl clutching the Ice mage's leg and smiled cheerfully at her. Lucy and Wendy joined him and the three of them looked at the little child. The other guild members were surprised as well whispering to each other but they watched the little girl from their view.
The girl has blue short curly locks, her eyes are in deep dark blue and her face is very much familiar to the guild. She's wearing a baby blue sailor dress, black doll shoes and a blue Cossack hat.
"Hey Erza, is this Gray's abandoned child?" Natsu said in a teasing tone.
"Shut up idiot! I don't have a child! This is a complete stranger!" Gray said angrily blushing red.
"Aww, she's cute, snuggling Gray's leg like that." Lucy said adorably.
"Erza who and where did you find this kid?" Wendy asked but before Erza can answer Gajeel and Lisanna arrived, looking tired.
"Erza, do you already found Juvia?" Lisanna asked tiredly.
"That brat's running off and it's making me mad." Gajeel said as he panted tiredly then he saw the girl sticking her tongue out to the iron dragon slayer. "There she is! come here you brat so I can give you a piece of my mind." The girl then magically uses Water magic and attacked Gajeel making him head straight out of the guild soaking wet. Erza and Lisanna quickly dodged it.
"That young girl is Juvia Lockser." Erza said blankly. Most of the guild members was quite shock at their water mage's sudden appearance.
"That's Juvia!" Lucy shouted causing the little Juvia to flinched. "How does she become so young?"
"While we're shopping at Bosco, she accidentally drank this free potion which turnsout to be a youth potion." Erza explained.
"That potion will turn every people 10 years younger so right now Juvia is 7 years old." Lisanna said finishing the explanation.
"And she turns to a really stubborn kid with a wild attitude." Gajeel said laughingly but Erza smack him.
"She's not stubborn, she's scared of you!" Erza shouted.
"Hey it's not my fault that I make fun of kids." Gajeel shouted back as he went to a bench and lie down. He looked at little Juvia still holding Gray's leg as Natsu, Wendy and Carla talked to her. "Well I guess Juvia's attached to Gray now."
Gray looked down and crouched. He looked at the little girl who stared at him blankly with curiosity.
"Papa!" Juvia said cheerfully and hugged Gray that made everyone surprised. Natsu began to smirk and Gray was shocked at what he just heard.
"Did he just call you papa?" Lucy asked in surprise.
Lisanna looked at the potion bottle which Juvia drank from that town. She asked the bottle just in case there's precautions in the label. She began to read what it says. "Please be warned that the person will lose half the memory once drank if it turns into a toddler or child. He/she will not remember clearly for he/she will have a childish mind. This will last for exactly one month. "
"A month?" Natsu repeated. "That's a long set of days."
"Since Juvia has quickly attached to Gray, I advise he will take care of her until that day comes." Erza said disappointed. Her expression obviously shows she wanted to take care of Juvia instead but unfortunately, Erza took two days to earn the little Juvia's trust while Gray only had a second.
"What! NO WAY! Why me?" Gray asked in surprised.
"C'mon Juvia, I'll give some delicious sweets." Mira said as she approached the little Juvia and carries her but Juvia started to struggle from Mira's hold and went to Gray once more and grabbed his a part of his pants and pulls it showing that she wants Gray to come along as well. "Oh dear, I guess she wants to be with Gray."
"Papa ! Papa ! Cake! Juvia wants cake!" Juvia said in her excited child version voice looking at Gray with excited and determined eyes. Gray looked at hid friends seeing Natsu signaling him to go on, Erza looking very disappointed about the cake that Wendy patted her comfort.
"It looks like Juvia knows her name." Lucy said. "But she didn't remember who we are. That's just selfish!" she pouted the fact that Juvia forgotten who their friends are.
"Well, what do you expect? She's a kid now a toddler so of course she don't remember."Natsu said in a matter of fact. "So good luck on taking care of your daughter Gray!"
Gray cast a glare at the pink-haired wizard. He is now sitting at the counter with little Juvia who's eating the slice of cake. As he looked at Juvia once more, he was surprised that she finished eating and now sewing a doll. He remembers that doll. That doll was the doll that Juvia held when he first met Juvia. When she was still an S-class mage of the Phantom Lord guild. He also realized, Juvia's cheery expression has now turned into a lonely and sad expression. The sky began to go gloomy as well that it started to rain.
"What's wrong Juvia?" Gray asked worriedly.
"I'm fixing Teru teru…he always help me to cheer up." Juvia said sadly then she showed the doll to Gray. "He just brings Mr. Sunshine to cheer Juvia up!" then she continue back to sewing and she started crying, remembering the children teasing her. "They just teased Juvia all over again." She then sewed faster.
Gray looked at her worriedly and ruffled her hair. "Hey don't get those word over you." Gray began and Juvia looked at her. "I say, the reason why they tease you because they're just jealous at how strong your magic is or something so don't let it get to you."
Juvia looked at her and nodded, having a little smile appear on her face. Gray smiled back knowing he made Juvia happy even a little bit. He also enjoys watching the little girl chant as she chant Cake to tell Mira she wants to eat more but it surprises him seeing Erza joined as well.
"Erza, what are you doing?" Gray asked looking at the red haired woman.
"I'm just joining my niece to eat cake right Juvia? Aunt Erza will join Juvia for cake." Erza said looking happily at Juvia. Juvia didn't mind this at all.
"Fine, but so you know, too much cake will leave you with cavities or something." Gray said but was shocked as he realized Erza ignored him. He also noticed Juvia's eating a whole bunch of seconds so he took Juvia and joined Natsu, Happy, Elfman and Lucy to their table.
"That's too much cake for you." Gray said to Juvia as he took her leaving Erza enjoying her paradise.
"So how's Daddy Gray treating Juvia?" Natsu asked looking down at Juvia. Juvia glared at Gray and they had a glaring contest. "Did Daddy Gray forced you to stop eating cake?" Juvia nodded still glaring at ice wizard.
"Don't go give me that look." Gray said hopelessly. "Hey don't start crying!" Juvia then started to cry causing it to rain once more.
"Papa is so mean to Juvia!" Juvia cried as she cry in tears.
"She's crying…"Wendy commented looking at the window. "The skies are crying as well."
"I heard Juvia was known as the rain woman. Her feelings is expressed by the rain." Lucy said as she wondered.
"A REAL MAN WILL NEVER LET A CHILD CRY!" Elfman roared.
"True but too much cake will be dangerous!" Gray said gritting his teeth. He then took Juvia's doll and and showing it to Juvia, making her to noticed the Teru teru bozu doll. He didn't look at Juvia as he showed the doll.
The rain stopped and so does the crying. Juvia took the doll and began to pet it like a pet dog or something. Gray looked at this and smiled relieved, ignoring the whispers of his friends about his sudden attitude.
