Chapter 16:
Waaattttttttt!!!!!!!!! Gray is my tutor! It's been awkward between us ever since I cried that day. Well at least for me it was. Not sure how Gray feels about that. "Umm, wh- who again?" I asked already knowing who it was. "Gray Fullbuster, he's the guy who has dark blue hair an-" "Yes I know who he is" I cut off Mr. Makorav. "Okay, oh and your first day is tomorrow after school he said to meet at the county library right after school ends!" "Do I need to bring anything?" Am I dumb, of course I need to bring my books and worksheets. "I'm not sure he didn't tell me" "Okay, thank you Mr. Makorav." I then went back to my seat and I guess I did need special help because I couldn't focus for the rest of the class. After school I went home and did the usual, except talk with my mom. She was still upset with me. After a silent dinner with my mom I went to bed.
The next morning I woke up and got ready before school and before I headed to school I packed some extra stuff for the tutoring after school. As I waked to school I got a notification on my phone. It was a post Evergreen made about me. I opened it up. She ease dropped on me when Mr.Makorav told me I needed tutoring! She recorded it and posted it online! Now everyone is gonna think I'm stupid! Already a bunch on comments and reposts were popping up! The comments were saying things like "Wow! Guess she really didn't pay attention in class" or "Lol! She maybe cheated when she used to be top" the only reason I'm failing is because of these posts and comments! I'll just try to ignore them for the rest of the day. "Hey look at this post! I guess the rumors are true!-laughs-" already people at school were talking about it! Now how will I ignore this! When I went to class Mr. Makorav was teaching us something new. He called on students to answer questions. I took notes and tried to focus but then something came into my head, how did she ease drop? I remember the whole time we were talking the only person near by was-wait a minute! It was the girl who told Lucy, Erza, and Natsu the rumors. Laxus or someone must've asked her to record! I do remember her holding a phone with the camera towards us! "Juvia, JUVIA!" I looked up it was Mr. Makorav he called on me and I didn't pay attention. "Huh! Umm sorry yes!" "What is the answer to the last problem?" I looked at the last problem and I had no idea what we were learning about because I was not paying attention. This is exactly why I need tutoring! I stayed silent. "Juvia! Just say an answer. If you don't know, staying silent isn't any better than just guessing!" "Uhhhh... 5.9274...?" I totally messed up. The rest of the kids in the class giggled. "Juvia I'm sorry I'm going to be honest with you but your not even close." He continued on teaching. My face was as red as a tomato. I was so embarrassed!
After class I grabbed the worksheets and textbooks from my locker and walked to the library. When I got there I tried looking for Gray but I couldn't find him. Finally I saw him walking through the door. I went to him. "Hey Gray your supposed to be tutoring me! I got the textbooks and worksheets ready. Where should I start?" He looked surprised. "Wow, you didn't have to bring all this. I wanted the first day of tutoring to be us getting to know each other better. I know we've been friends but we never got a chance to get to know each other. I was actually thinking of meeting you here and then we'd go to the café." What! I brought all these books and worksheets for nothing which all together probably weigh how much my backpack does coming home from school which is pretty heavy. "Okay..." Yep that totally sounded like I was okay with it. "Sorry for the trouble"
We then went to the café and we ordered. Gray ordered first, "I'll get a small coffee and a muffin, Juvia?", "Oh, umm I'll get a latte with a large chocolate chip cookie" when the waitress left Gray looked at me weirdly "What? Why are you looking at me like that?" I seemed nervous. "Sorry it's just that it seems your always in a daze... It seems to effect you a lot, especially with your study's." Wow, he's right. I need to stop going on and about and instead pay attention to the things that really matter li- wait I'm dazing off right now." Yeah I'm trying stop it and focus more" I replied early enough before I went off again. "What do you think about when your going like that?" I never really thought about it. Well recently it's been about why kids hate me and why my friends are the only ones that stand up for me or why I just suck sometimes. But I can't tell him that. He'll think I'm crazy. "Oh just about my old friends and where I used to live" what 'old friends' I had no one then... I felt tears coming up, for no reason. Again just like a few days ago. I couldn't control it. I didn't know what I was upset about. "Excuse me" I quickly ran to the bathroom with tears already coming out. I went into a stall and tried to stop crying. I couldn't. Now it was too late. My face was already red and my nose was already sniffing. If I go back out even when I stop crying, everyone will know I was crying. I stayed in the bathroom for five minutes which gave me long enough to have my face clear again. I went out and I saw Gray at the table already with our orders. I went to the table and sat down. "Sorry about what happened 5 minutes ago. Hope you didn't mind" he probably did mind. "No I don't mind but what happened? You just started crying out of no where and zoomed away for five minutes." Darn it noticed. "Oh, umm, those were tears of...happiness! Yeah...umm... I was so happy that I have new great friends!" He's never gonna buy that! "You sure? It seemed more serious than that." I don't even know if it was serious. "No seriously I'm fine lets just continue in where we were before I left." I said, trying to change the topic.
After we ate our food we went to the park for a walk. We talked and got to know each other better. We went to his house after that and we made ice crystals for fun and we played some video games. "Hey Juvia, I had a lot of fun with you today" i felt my pulse go a little faster. "Yeah me too, this is the most fun I've had in a while!:)" He dropped me back to my house and I had a good rest of the night.
