Juvias POV
I woke up at 4:00 am to start cleaning. When I opened my eye I looked around to find a sleeping Gray-sama next to me. His arms that were wrapped around my waist tightened as I tried to get out.

"Gray-sama" I whisper trying to shake him awake.

"Don't go yet" he said nuzzling into my hair.

"But  Juvia has to work" I said getting nervous.

"She does, does she?" He asked as he flipped me onto my back.

"J-Juvia talks in third person when she's nervous" I said blushing madly.

"Why would you be nervous?" He asked as he lowered his head.

"J-Juvia really has to go to work, she'll get into trouble" I say as he smirks.

"You should talk like this more, it's cute" he said with a smile.

"Please don't tell the king, he'll punish Ju-me" I said worried. He go off me and looked away.

"G-Gray-sama are you ok?" I asked and he shook his head.

"You should go" he said without emotion. I sat up next to him and pulled his chin towards me, his eyes looking at me longingly.

"Juvia I-" He was interrupted when We heard a knock at the door. I got off the bed and pretended to start dusting.

"Come in" He said as the door opened.

"He Prince Charming the king wants to see all of us" Natsu said walking out of the room again. I sighed and followed him. We all walked to the kings room where we met up with Lucy.

"What's happening?" I asked and Lucy shrugged. She knocked on the door and was asked to enter. We entered the room and the bowed to the king.

"I've asked you in hear to tell you that the kingdom in which the Fulbuster family rule over and the kingdom that the Heartfillia family rule over have decided to unite the two and become one" the king said as my heart fell.

Lucy's POV

"W-wait that mea-" I begun but my father cut me off.

"You will be married in a week" he said as I glanced at Natsu. His eyes held the emotions of anger and hurt.

"Bu-" Juvia started before the king had turned around and slapped her. I saw Gray hold back and Juvia regains composer.

"The deed is done" he said as he gestured for us to leave. Before we left he had asked Juvia to stay behind. I nodded to her and kept walking with Natsu and Gray on both sides of me as we walked in silence. We went to the main room and sat on the couch.

"Natsu I-" I tried to explain but he shook his head.

"I knew it was coming, Gray's parents sent me along to make sure you guys got together" he said looking down.

"I can't" was all that Gray said.

"Why don't we leave, the four of us I mean?" Natsu said with a tear in his eyes.

"Ok" I said with a smile and walked up and sat next to him.

"Where would we go?" Gray asked looking at Natsu.

"We'll go to your palace" He suggested with a smile.

"But his parents-" I was interupted by Natsu.

"Don't know what you look like" he said as Gray and I looked at him surprised.

"We tell them that Juvia is Lucy and Lucy is Juvia, that way we all get what we want" Natsu said as I just stared at him.

"Ok, we leave first thing in the morning" Gray said with a smile.

"Great I'll tell the king" I said with a smile walking off. I walked to thee kings room and heard him talking to Juvia.

"You will go with Lucy and make sure she marries that spoiled brat. I want all the money he has, once she's married I don't care what happens to her!" he said angrily and I looked through the crack of the door to find him gripping Juvia's arm.

"Gray-sama isn't spoiled and there is no way Lucy would do as you asked. She's not your puppet and once she hears what you had to say she'll take you down!" She yelled trying to escape.

"That's it, if you won't co operate..." he said walking to the window.

"P-please" Juvia let a tear drop as he held her near the window.

"Don't you take another step" I said walking up to them.

"L-Lucy" Juvia said surprised.

"How dare you let a slave talk to you like that" the king said getting mad.

"She's not a slave, she's my friend" I said sternly. Juvia shook her head as the king grabbed a bunch of her hair and yanked her off her feet, slightly hanging her out the window.

"Juvia!" I yelled gritting my teeth at the old man.

"It's a shame I could have sold you but no one wants a maid who doesn't know where she stands" he smirked as he let go of her hair letting her fall out the castle window.

"Juvia!!!"
