Chapter 4: Friends

"To the fans, Lyon Vastia is their lover. So, how about customers being able to personally give their homemade chocolate to him?" I said discussing the plan to the team

"That sounds good." They said

We all agreed to that plan and make a 'Track Chart' for the ticket sales. I posted the posted on the hotels bulletin board.

"This is Lockser from Fairy Hotel's Event Planning Department. Is it possible to arrange a meeting tomorrow to discuss on the matters for the event?" I even make phone calls and errands for the preparation of the event.

Finally we've sold out all 200 tickets for the Valentine Event with Lyon Vastia! "Everyone, we've sold out the tickets valentine event! What's left is to wait for the day to come." I said to the team. We all clapped in our success.

"We did it!" Erza-san said

"Hey, Hey! Lockser-kun." Sir. Macao called

"Yes?"

"Jenny Realight's office contacted saying she will only be around until 7. Wasn't the event until 9 pm?!" he asked

"Yes, Juvia made them clear the schedule for the whole day. I already e-mailed them."

"Did you properly confirm it face to face?" Gray-sama asked

"I'm sorry."

"What do we do then?! We can't give out refunds, that'll cause too much damage!" Sir. Macao said

"It was too much for her. They probably thought she was just a newbie and didn't take her seriously." Gray-sama said

"Then what do we do?" Sir. Macao asked. He seems frustrated at this situation.

"Let me fix this. I'll do something about it." I said and immediately went out to talk to the Chief of Ms. Jenny

"Excuse me, please. Can I talk to the Chief?" I ask to personnel as soon as I came to them

"The Chief is busy." He said

"Please it'll be only a minute."

"No way."

"Please." I tried to plead him

"It's impossible." He said. I wait for the Chief outside the company. It's getting cold out here.

"Ah! Chief Ichiya-san! Can't we do something about Jenny Realight's schedule?" I catch up to him as soon as he went out.

"You're so persistent!" he said

"Please! We don't want to betray the fans expectation to be able to meet her." I pleaded more.

"Sorry, it's already decided."

"Please."

"No way." He said getting into his car.

"Chief! There's..." the guy from earlier came out and called for the Chief

"What???"

"I'm sorry, but it's something..." he said and the Chief went back inside

When the Chief came out, his tone change from being aggressive to lovely tone. "Well~ Sorry about that that. You know, we've been affiliated with your hotel for a while now so, I'll do something about it." He said

"Really?" I asked. I'm still curious but at the same time relief. "Thank you very much!" I said and bowed to him

Gray's POV

Geez. Do I really have to do everything myself? That girl is really hopeless, isn't she? My phone rings...and speaking of the devil...

"What is it now?" I asked

"Ah! Gray-sama? Juvia just got an okay. I properly corrected my mistake." She said

"It's only natural to correct a mistake." I said

"But still..." she said and I hang up the phone. Geez. That woman... I looked at    Ultear and she has this mischievous smile at me. I came to see her to fix Juvia's mistake again. Can't she grow up a little?!

Juvia's POV

The event is successful. I'm glad everything went out perfectly. They are currently heading the event. The fans are getting up the stage, giving Lyon their chocolates and Lyon is giving them hugs and kisses in return. I went to the backstage to carry the gifts Lyon gets from the fans. I looked at the schedule at it's about time that the event will finish.

I saw a notepad on the table and grab my pen on my pocket. "A little message won't hurt." I wrote what I want to say to him on the paper. I was surprised when someone snatches it from my hand.

"You could've just said it yourself."

"Lyon!" I said and tried to get the paper back from him. "Give it back!"

"Come on, you were going to give it to me anyways, right?" he said

"Still..."

"I didn't become great or anything." He said

[Lyon, congratulations. You turned out great, it surprised me.]

"I was surprised the other day." He said

"Eh? So you noticed Juvia after all."

"Yeah, I thought shoooot!"

"Are you properly dating that actress after that?" I asked in crossed arms and lean on the table

"We weren't dating in the first place. Rather, how about you? Do you have a boyfriend?" he asked and I turned to look at him

"I do. Even I do." I said and put my hand on my coat pocket

"hmmm...." He said and I went out to look for Gray-sama. I saw him standing in front of the elevator talking to one employee. I point him out to Lyon but Sir. Macao gets in the way. I gestured him that it's not him but Gray-sama.

"Oh! That guy..." Lyon said

"Ah! No no! It was the guy behind. He has a scar on his forehead." I said and called for Gray-sama

"Gray-sama! Gray-sama!" I called but he ignores me and step inside the elevator

"You're not being loved, huh?" Lyon laughs

"That's not it. That's just how he is!"

"Rather, stop talking like we're strangers. We're friend, aren't we?" he said, like nothing gone between us before.

"Friends?" I asked and paused for a while "You're right." Then an awkward silence filled the place.

"Your uniform looks good on you." He said and went inside the room again "You really worked hard huh? You got a full-fledged job and all. You're all grown up, huh Juvia?" he said and I just smile and nodded at him.
