Chapter 1

A Painful Confession

The crystal moon shone brightly across the darkness of night, as the frosty stars burned dimly for midnight was approaching the city of Magnolia.

In the middle of the city of Magnolia – sirens screeched out loud, police forces, ambulances, fire brigades and hundreds of people crowded around the most horrific car crash in time!

People of authority lines the streets like stitches, as the dead, injured, lost and survivors of the car crash scattered everywhere. Medics, doctors, fire rangers, police, families, friends, and even ordinary strangers all tried to help the authorities sort out this awful mess!

But… in the distance… a dark figure stood there watching the catastrophe and grinned wickedly. "Another one down…. two more to go." And walked off, smiling at his sick victory….

The night went on as the authorities tried hard to sort out this terrible mess.

Gray Fullbuster, one of the richest men, leader of the Fullbuster Clan and owner of the Fairy Tail Corp. was present at the car crash site.

He received emergencies calls that his arranged future wife to be was caught in the car crash – Juvia Lockser.

Gray drove to the private hospital that he ordered Juvia to be escorted to, and now he was there. He reached Juvia's room without much trouble, and went in – to find her asleep.

Juvia was definitely asleep. Gray looked at the woman he knew all his life, and never loved more than as a cousin. The car she was in crushed her whole figure. Her face had horrible cuts and bruises. He instantly knew that there was little chance that she would survive….

As midnight passed over, Juvia woke… her dark blue eyes searched the room she was in, and rested on the dark figure standing by the window. She instantly knew that it was him….

"Gray-sama…." Juvia's voice was very weak, she didn't even recognize her own voice!

"Are you alright?" His voice came from the window, as she felt his eyes snapped to her.

"For now… yes. But – but – " Juvia was breathing swiftly, trying to speak.

"Stop, Juvia. Just rest." Came a strong firm order.

"Listen to me, Gray…." Juvia whispered urgently, the pain from the car accident rapidly stabbed her injured body. She felt she had little time….

"Not now, Juvia. Just rest!" The voice answered back a tired, but firm reply.

"No! You and I know that I don't have much time!" Juvia rasped out painfully.

"Don't talk like that Juvia!" The replying voice ordered firmly again.

"But Gray, I have to tell you something! Its about – " Juvia tried again, pain spread through her body as she tried to sit up.

"Enough!" Gray's voice cut through the room like a blade. He took long strides next to Juvia's bed, and pushed her down softly. Then he spoke in a much calmer, but still firm voice. "Juvia, you have just been pulled out of car accident! Just rest, ok?"

"No! I need to tell you something! Gray, I'm not going to survive! You and I know that! Stop refusing me!" Her voice was like a final plead, and sent pain bombing on her lungs for air.

"Alright, Juvia. But only a few words." Gray sat down on a chair next to Juvia's bed. His attention focused on his dying cousin, and arranged fiancé.

"Lucy Heartfilia…." Juvia spoke her name out like a curse.

"Excuse me?" Gray's face darken with an anger expression, his eyes grew cold and empty. His mouth pressed into a thin line.

"You – you know that night? That night when she left?" Juvia hesitated a lot knowing Gray never spoke about Lucy Heartfilia or that awful night.

"Yes." Gray's voice was tight, under control and full of anger and hatred. "Why are you talking about that woman now, Juvia?"

"Because she is innocent!" Juvia's voice rang out into a deadly silence. "I lied to you!"

"Innocent…? Lied to me…? Juvia, what the hell are you talking about?" Gray tried to hide the shock in his voice, but couldn't quite do it.

"I lied. She wasn't – wasn't the one in the photos, Gray. She never was with that man… never in the photos… never like that." Juvia took a deep breath and continued slowly. "I set it up, with your sisters… to get – get her out of your life."

Silence. A silence that stretched out uncomfortable settled in….

"Why?" The word painfully escaped Gray's throat – a throat that tightened with a wild melee of surging hot emotions. "I loved her, Juvia."

Gray rose to stand up. His hands clenched tightly turning white, barely able to control the burst of violence erupting inside him. If Juvia wasn't half – dead already, and if she wasn't lying helplessly on the hospital bed….he would..

"Why?" Gray harshly cried. The old powerful anger and hatred turned on, and was building…. Struggling to understand what Juvia was saying, what she meant, where this was leading….

'Juvia, and my own sisters!' Gray thought angrily. The woman, his own cousin and arranged fiancé that he trusted! And his own sisters! His own flesh and blood! He trusted them before Lucy Heartfilia… because they were family! Family! And family honour meant that his commitment and trust went to them first!

"What satisfaction could it have given you? Destroying my love and my trust for her…." Gray tightly threw at Juvia. 'That stabbed me so deeply in my heart… I never let any other woman into it.' He thought savagely afterwards.

"I love you, Gray! I wanted you!" Juvia choked out painfully, the pain yet relief of finally confession dug deep in her.

"What about my sisters?" Gray asked her, ignoring her outburst of love for him. His voice under tight control again – masking his emotional state. 'If she really loved me, she would have wanted me to be truly happy.'

"Aunt Ur wanted her out." Juvia replied quietly. "So, your sisters helped me to get rid – rid of her." Each word caused her relief but then pain, emotionally and physically.

"Mother…?" Gray questioned with disbelief coursing through his tensed up body.

"Aunt Ur thought Lucy Heartfilia is never – not suitable for you. She – she had already wanted you to marry… me." The reasons of the truth about Lucy Heartfilia felt like hot stabs to Gray's heart.

"I was… jealous of her, Gray. I saw you fall in love with her. You loved her. I wanted you… to turn to me… fall in love with me…." Juvia breathed out softly, guiltily.

Gray only shook his head, not knowing how and not wanting to answer. His troubled mind was spinning wildly, trying to put the pieces together….

"Doesn't matter," he finally growled out, dropping back onto the chair under the weight of crushing despair.

Six years has passed since then, and life has moved on. No way in hell, Lucy Heartfilia would ever consider getting back together with him… after the way he'd brutally sliced through everything she'd said, and rejected her.

"I forgive you and my sisters, Juvia." Gray continued but he voice was forced under control again. "I'm sorry that things… have come out the way it is…."

Gray had to bear with this… his cousin and now in his mind ex – fiancé was slowing leaving him…. Let his cousin be at peace with herself now… and his sisters are at peace in their graves now….

"Its not your fault, Gray." Juvia whispered gently, at last she was accepting fate. "But there's only more thing I got to tell you – "

"You'd said enough." Gray cut in tersely, wanting to block out thoughts of Lucy Heartfilia and trying to save Juvia from any more extreme distress.

"No, please listen…." Juvia's dark blue eyes begged patience. And Gray waited, hating the way Juvia dragged in more air in effort to say more.

"Lucy… was – was pregnant…."

"What?" Gray felt his whole world turned completely inside out, and his troubled mind spun again. 'She couldn't of been pregnant! She didn't look pregnant! It was our first time for fuck's sake!'

But Juvia's eyes told him another story and the certainty in her orbs was undoubtedly real! This made him ask bizarrely. "How do you know?"

"Her stepmother came to Aunt Ur… with proof." Juvia replied at once.

"Why not to me?" Gray continued.

"The bitch was… after money." Came her rasped reply.

"Did she get it?" Gray's deadly curiosity made him speak.

"Yes. I don't know if Lucy – Lucy gave birth… but you might be a father, Gray." Tears filled her eyes, she closed her eyelids as her breathed in deeply and choked out. "I'll never be a mother."

"Don't give up, Juvia!" Gray commanded. "Don't you dare give up! You're my cousin –damnmit!"

"I was… never… never your fiancé." Juvia returned back as her body flooded with pain. "I was… just… just – your cousin."

"Then stay here and be my cousin, Juvia!" Gray noticed her eyes growing dull, her face filled with pain, and her body was going horrible weak. He reached out and grabbed Juvia's fragile hand, willing his own powerfully strong life – force to go into the broken, injured body on the hospital bed.

Juvia smiled a weak, faint smile.

Gray simply looked at her, knowing what would inevitably happen… he placed a genuine smile on his despairing face.

Juvia drew in a last breath and she spoke her final words between them….

"Find… Lucy."
