“Dude, could you have choosen anyone more hotter?” Loke smirked at
his best friend who was getting his hair done by his stylist, Freed
Justine.
“Shut up, Loke.” Gray grumbled, annoyed at Loke for
calling Juvia hot. He knew she was hot, sexy in fact, but he didn’t like
it when other guys, especially his friends, called her that. And it
annoyed him that he got angry for something so stupid.
“Just
saying, amigo.” Loke sat down on the chair beside him and looked at
himself in the mirror, fixing his hair. “Though, for a girl with that
kind of body, she’s very nice and sweet.”
Gray raised an eyebrow at him, “You met her already?”
“Don’t move, Gray.” Freed said firmly. Gray rolled his eyes and stood still.
Loke grinned, “Yup. Even had breakfast with her.”
Gray tried not to overthink the words, “Glad you two got along.” He better not try anything with her.
Wait, where did that come from?
“She’s a good friend.” Loke smiled and winked at his own reflection. “Anyway, enough about her and me.” That little… “What about you and her?” …w-wait what?
“What do you mean?” Gray asked nonchalantly, moving to face the mirror.
“Don’t
move, Gray.” Freed repeated firmly. Gray sighed and watched Freed do
his hair in it’s usual spikes. It doesn’t matter how many times he does
it, his spikes have always been a challenge with Freed. It may take him
20 or 25 minutes to do his hair but Freed got his spikes better than
anyone. Not even the best stylists could get them right like Freed.
“I
mean what’s going between you two? Are you friends? Want more? You know
the usual.” Loke smirked as Gray struggled to keep his cool but only he
could see it because he knows Gray very well.
“You’re an ass you know that, right?” Gray said coolly, though he was anything but.
Loke
chuckled, “I’m just saying, amigo. You got one hell of a sexy girl
here, which may I remind you you choose her to be here, and you’re
telling me you’re cool about it?” He snorted and Gray just glared at
him.
“She’s not the first sexy girl I’ve seen in my life, baka!”
“Yes but this one is special. You choose her.
It might seem stupid to others but I know you too well to know she
isn’t just some girl.” Loke placed his hands behind his head. “Admit it,
man. You’re interested in her.”
Gray growled low in his throat. “Am. Not.”
“You’re pissed. That means yes.”
Gray growled again. “I hate you.”
Loke smirked victoriously, “I hate you too.”
“Aand
done!” Freed put down his comb and smirked proudly at his work. Gray
looked at himself in the mirror and grinned when he saw his spikes, just
like he liked them. Not too messy. No gel. Just comb and brush. And
only Freed could pull it off
“Amazing as always, Freed.”
Freed stood proudly, “Well, of course. No one’s better than me with hair.”
“And
that’s the only thing you gonna get.” Evergreen, his fashion stylist,
snorted. “You barely even know how to dress properly.”
Freed
gasped, “I do not!” Evergreen raised an eyebrow at his white button down
shirt with dark purple bermuda shorts and pink vans.
“Yeah, okay,
if you say so.” Evergreen lifted her chin up and turned around to the
eight racks of clothes, still looking for a good swimsuit for his
photoshoot with Juvia.
I wonder what kind of bikini she’ll be
wearing? A purple one like the photo? A blue one to match her wavy blue
curls and blue eyes? Or pink like her favorite color that also matches
her soft pink lip-
The hell what was he thinking?!
She’s
just a co-worker, for a week. He shouldn’t be thinking about her that
way. Hell, he’s been in the same room with the world’s hottest female
models and not once has he ever thought of them that way.
What the hell is she?
“Perfect!
Come on, Gray! Put this on!” Gray stood up from his chair at
Evergreen’s command and looked at the piece of clothing she choose. It
was a swimsuit, obviously, a blue one with splashes of pale blue here
and there. On her left hand, she held a dark blue beads bracelet.
He smirked and took the swimsuit and bracelet, “You always know how to make me look sexy.”
Evergreen
smirked smugly and waved her hand, “Please, darling, of course I do.
Now, chop chop, you only got thirty minutes left to get ready.”
Gray nodded and made his way to the dressing room of the tent when Evergreen called him.
“Oh, Gray?”
Gray raised an eyebrow, “Yeah?”
Evergreen
smirked wickedly, “Nothing. Just thinking about the outfit Juvia will
probably be wearing. Heard she looks sexy in a small bikini.” And with
that she winked at him, proud of herself when his cheeks turned pink.
Gray glared daggers at her, cheeks still pink. “Fuck you.”
“Love you too, hun.”
He dropped the curtain down, hoping he could vanish into thin air. He could hear Freed and Loke laughing faintly outside. Those bastards. I need new friends.
But even as he said it, he knew it was a total lie. He couldn’t ask for better friends than them.
He
sighed and turned to the swimsuit and bracelet, staring at it as if
wearing those piece of clothing will change his world forever. Maybe it
would. And hopefully this time, for the better.

“Oh my god, you look absolutely stunning!” Chelia squealed when Juvia walked out of the mini dressing room inside the tent.
“And let’s not forget sexy.” Sherry winked and Juvia blushed at the compliment.
She was wearing a dark purple bikini with black splashes and some silver bracelets on her right hand.
Juvia
couldn’t believe she was doing this. She was actually doing this. She
was going to be part of a photoshoot. With Gray Fullbuster.
As she took her seat on one of the chairs to get her make up and hair ready, she took deep long breaths to calm herself.
“Aww,
honey, relax,” Sherry smiled as she went through all her hair products.
“It will all be alright. The only bad thing that could happen is if you
fall into pool. And with your body it will only make you look sexy as
fuck when you come out.” Juvia blushed so red Chelia and Lisanna laughed
at her red cheeks.
“The
first time is always the hardest.” Lisanna said laying a hand on her
shoulder. “You will get insecure and think about all the worsts
scenarios but by the end of the day you’ll find yourself wishing for
more.” Juvia relaxed visibly at her words and smiled at her from the
mirror as Sherry began working with her hair.
“Thanks,
Lisanna.” Lisanna smiled brightly, which reminded Juvia of her older
sister, and nodded before excusing herself out of the tent.
“She’s
right, you know.” Chelia said, looking through millions of eyeshadow.
“I remember my first job as a make-up stylist. I was so nervous I
thought I was going to ruin the bride’s face! But the moment the brush
touched her face I forgot all about it. When I was done, I saw that I
had done a work of art, a masterpiece. The bride was beyond grateful.
After that I wanted to do more and more jobs. And I got it by coming
here!” Chelia grinned widely at Juvia, who had a smile throughout her
story. “So what I’m saying is that you may be nervous now but later
you’ll be having the time of your life you’ll be begging for more!”
Chelia laughed and continued to go through her ton of make-up.
“Juvia appreciates it, Chelia. Thank you.” Juvia said sincerely, smiling at the young pink haired girl.
“Anytime, Juvia!” Chelia winked at her.
Twenty
minutes later she was ready. Even though she spent fifteen minutes on
her hair, Sherry did her blue hair messy yet still beautiful and
delicate with her blue curls framing her face and falling down her back.
Chelia went light with her make-up. Her blue eyes, thanks to the black
mascara and eyeliner, seemed more brighter, especially with the faint
grey eyeshadow. She had only a bit of blush on and pink lipgloss. She
couldn’t tear her gaze away from her face in the mirror.
“Sooooo, whacha think?!” Chelia chirped, clearly excited and proud at her work.
Juvia blinked, crashing back to reality, and grinned widely. “Juvia loves it! Thank you, Chelia! Sherry!”
Chelia
squealed happily and Sherry smiled sweetly, “No problem, hun. Now, get
out there and show the world how sexy you are.” She winked at Juvia, who
blushed red.
“E-eh, right. Thanks again.” Sherry chuckled and patted her shoulder reassuringly.
“Is
Juvia ready?” Lisanna asked pushing aside the tents drapes. She gasped,
“Oh my… Juvia you look amazing! I can tell this photoshoot is going
to be a success!” Juvia blushed again and nodded, smiling shyly.
Lisanna
walked toward her and took her by the arm. “Come on. It’s time. We need
to get you and Gray on the pool now.” Juvia nodded and stood up from
her chair as Lisanna dragged her outside but not before waving goodbye
at Sherry and Chelia, both girls sending a thumps up her way.
~
Gray didn’t know how he didn’t fell into the pool the moment he saw Juvia.
He
was standing on the edge of the pool, talking with Laxus, the
photographer, about the shoot when she walked out of the tent with
Lisanna. He swore everyone’s eyes were on her on that moment. And why
not? Juvia looked like fucking water goddess, maybe a goth one but
still.
Her cheeks turned red
and she smiled shyly at everyone. Some of the camera crew dropped the
equipment or almost dropped it at the sight of her red cheeks and shy
smile. He narrowed his eyes at them but he didn’t had to punch them
because Laxus made his way toward them and started yelling to be more careful and to stop
oogling the model.
Gray
watched as Lisanna directed Juvia toward Laxus who was still yelling.
Lisanna introduced Juvia to Laxus and they made small conversation.
After that, Laxus pointed in his direction and Juvia turned her head to
look at him. He sucked a breath at her very blue eyes but composed
himself by smirking his usual smirk and waving in her direction. He had
the pleasure to see her cheeks turn pink as she made her way toward him,
he assumed Laxus told her to get ready beside him.
When Juvia was in front of him, he smirked. “Well, look at you, already making boys trip over their own feet.”
Juvia
blushed, “J-Juvia didn’t mean to. Ugh. Juvia is nervous wreck right
now.” She wrapped her arms around herself and took deep breaths.
Gray
laughed earning a surprising glare from Juvia. “It’s not funny, Gray!
Juvia has never done this before so I have every right to be nervous.”
Gray
held up his hand in surrender. “Alright alright, I get it. I was
nervous the first time too.” Liar. Back in that time he was very much
aware of his body and had no shame in showing it. But something about
Juvia, something in her voice made him lie, just to see her more
relaxed.
Her glare soften, “You were?”
Gray nodded, “Yeah. I mean, who wouldn’t?”
Juvia visibly relaxed and nodded, “Alright… Juvia will try not to puke on the spot.”
He chuckled and patted her bare shoulder. “You’ll be fine.”
Juvia
smiled brightly and she looked so beautiful in that moment that he
didn’t give a fuck if someone caught him staring at her bright blue ey-
“Alright people! Let’s get this shoot started!”
Gray
blinked and saw Laxus giving instructions to his crew to get the
reflectors and wait for further instructions. Laxus turned to them.
“Alright,
I want you both to get in the pool and sit down on the stairs. You,”
Laxus pointed at Gray. “will sit on the third step where the water will
reach till your belly. And you,” He pointed at Juvia. “will sit down on
the second step, above Gray. Do that and wait for me. Don’t fall into
the pool and don’t get your hair wet.” With those last words he spun
around and yelled for someone to bring him his camera along with its
lens.
Juvia gulped and Gray rolled his eyes. Taking hold of her elbow, he lead her away from the edge and toward the pool stairs.
He stepped in the water and turned his head when he heard Juvia hiss.
“It’s cold.” Juvia pouted cutely.
Wait, huh? Did he just said cutely?
“You’ll
get use to it later.” He got to the fourth step and slowly sat down on
the third step. He looked up to see Juvia very slowly dip her feet on
the water. She shivered and raised her head when he heard Gray chuckle.
“How are you not cold?” Juvia pouted again.
Gray shrugged, “The cold never really bothered me anyway. Now come on. Unless you want Laxus to shove you into the pool.”
Juvia
eyes widen and she quickly sat down on the second step with a squeak.
“Shit, this is so cold!” Gray laughed loudly and she glared at him
though he could see she didn’t meant it.
“Alright!
Let’s get this over with!” Laxus strolled toward them and knelt down
beside the pool’s edge but not too close. “Okay. Juvia, stretch down
your legs and Gray sit between them.” Juvia blushed but did as she was
told as Gray settled himself between her legs. “Don’t stiffen you legs,
Juvia. Let them relax and move them closer to Gray’s hips.” Still
blushing she did as told. “Good. Bent your right knee a little till your
toes feel the third step, yes, like that. Now move a bit foward and
Gray lean back on her.”
He
did as he was told and when he made contact with Juvia’s exposed belly
he knew he had it bad. His heart started racing so fast he almost froze
from the shock. He have leaned on lots of girl models and yet this one
in particular, who isn’t even a model but sure as hell looks like one,
makes his heart race like a teenage boy sitting next to his crush.
“Gray,
wrap your right arm around Juvia’s leg and lay your hand on her shin.”
He blinked and did as told. When he did he heard Juvia gasp at his touch
and his heart lurched from his chest knowing he had an effect on her as
she had on him. “Good. Juvia, place your hands on either side of you
and lean your back, as well as your head, back slightly.” Juvia did so
and leaned her back, as well as her head, back slightly. “Good. Now tilt
your head to the right just a little. Perfect! Gray, just stare at the
camera and do your thing with your face.” Laxus stood up and walked
toward a few feet away and spun around, kneeling in the ground.
“Bickslow!
Get on the pool with the reflector.” A tall guy with a blue mohawk
nodded and got into the pool as someone handed him a silver reflector.
Careful not to get the reflector wet, Bickslow walked toward them and
paused at their right holding the silver reflector till Gray could feel
the sunlight slightly on his face.
“Perfect.
Now give me some sexy looks.” Laxus raised his camera to his face and
both him and Juvia turned to the camera. Laxus took twenty shoots and
lowered the camera. “Alright, now, Juvia, wrap your arms around Gray’s
shoulder, tilt your head to the left and also moved your hair to the
left. Gray, lean back on her right shoulder and both stared at the camera.” They did as told and Laxus nodded in approval. “Perfect. Now,
sexy.”
Laxus took twenty
shoots again and lowered the camera. “Alright, now, Gray sit on the
second step and Juvia sit on his lap.” Oh fuck.
To
his surprise, Juvia nodded without blushing and stood up, her wet legs
looking ten thousand times sexier than dry. He stood up as well and sat
down on the second step. Juvia turned around, giving him a good view of
her behind and sat down slowly on his lap, her cheeks now a tinge pink.
He bit back a groan when she sat down on his lap. She just felt so good
over there…
Don’t! Not here. Please fucking don’t. Out of all the times to have a motherfucking boner-
“Gray
wrap your arms around her waist and lay your chin on her shoulder. And
Juvia put your hands over Gray’s and lean your head next to his.” Both
did as told and he felt Juvia tense under him just the slightest.
Good.
Feel my pain as well. Her waist was small and fit perfectly in his
arms as well as her small hands were so soft and warm he felt
butterflies in his stomach…
Stop! Focus on the shoot…
“Perfect. Bickslow move a little to the left… Stop. There. Okay let’s go. Aaand, sexy.”
~
160 shoots, 1 lunch break and 6 poses later, they were done for the day.
After
they got a few previews of the shoot everyone started congratulating
Juvia. The camera crew, her stylists, Natsu, Loke, even Laxus, for doing
an amazing job. She spot Gajeel on the back with two more bodyguards
and he gave her a thumbs up and his typical smirk.
She blushed the whole time and said ‘thank you’ to everyone. But the best one was from both Mirajane and Gray.
“You
were amazing, Juvia!” Mirajane squealed. “You looked like a complete
professional!” Juvia smiled and gasped when Mirajane hugged her tightly.
“J-Juvia c-can’t b-breathe..”
“Sorry!”
Mirajane laughed then saw something, or rather someone, over her
shoulder and winked before disappearing in one of the tents.
“Hey.”
She turned around and saw Gray grinning at her. “You were amazing out
there. You’ll be surprise by how many models still don’t know how to do a
proper pose.” She blushed and grinned back at him.
“Thank
you, Gray.” He nodded and bit his lip like he wanted to say something
else, maybe it was just her crazy imagination, before turning around and
going to his tent.
With a sigh, she did the same and went to her tent to change from her swimsuit into more warmer clothes.
Juvia
had to admit she was disappointed that it was over. She wanted to do
more shoots. Lisanna and Chelia were right, at the end of the day she’ll
be wishing for more. And she was.
Yes,
the whole point of this was to meet and do a photoshoot with Gray
Fullbuster. But the moment the camera clicked she lost herself in the
world of modeling and camera flashes. It was such a strange feeling. She
was always the shy girl, running away from any kind of attention. Her
best friends attention was all that she needed. And yet here she was,
posing for a magazine in a swimsuit, and not once did she felt embarrassed by her appearance. Nervous, yes, but embarrassed, no. And it
scared her. In a good sort of way. It almost felt natural. Like she was
made for this kind of thing. Posing for photoshoots, been in the cover
of magazines, have interviews, everything that makes the modeling world
the modeling world. And she wanted more.
Juvia knew it was crazy. But she would rather do this than become an English teacher. She didn’t know why. She just knew.
She
would get so focus in the shooting that sometimes she even forgot she
was with Gray Fullbuster, except when she had to sit on his lap and he
wrapped his arms around her.
It
was such an intimate position and she was very disappointed when she
had to move away from his arms. She couldn’t erase the thought of how
perfect his arms around her felt. Like they were made for her and only
her…
No! This is a one time thing Juvia. Don’t let your imagination get the best of you. It’s only for a week. Only a week…
The
realization washed over her like a wave again. This was only for a
week. A week. The camera flashes, the clothes, the hair and make-up,
the shoots, everything. She wanted so much more than a week.
And worse, Gray, Loke, Natsu, Lisanna, Chelia, Sherry and Mirajane were her friends… for only a week.
The thought upseted her more than she wanted to.
Juvia sighed and went to the mini dressing room in her tent to change.
Twenty minutes later, she walked out of the tent in the same clothes she came with. It was 3:00 and
she was hungry so she bid farewell to Lisanna, Chelia and Sherry before
leaving the tent. As much as she loved hanging with them she was still
sad with the thought of leaving them in a week.
It
was crazy. She only knew this people either a day or a few hours and
they were already friends. She sighed again and walked out of the
gardens, her hand brushing over the flowers every once in awhile. Once
inside the hotel she made her way to the elevators to change clothes
again when someone got in her way.
It was Tyler, one of Mirajane’s bodyguards.
“Miss Lockser.”
Juvia tilted her head, “Yes?”
“Some
girls are asking for you. They claim to be your 'bestie best friends forever and ever’” He said trying to keep a straight face.
Juvia eyes widen and she gasped. “Where are they?”
He pointed over his shoulder. “They’re waiting in the lobby.”
Juvia sprinted past him, but stopped and turned and said “Thank you!” and sprinted again toward the lobby.
She
gasped and squealed loudly when she saw three girls on the lobby’s
sofa. Two with books in their hands and one with a beer in hers.
“Girls!”
“Juvia!”
