There he was, sitting at the exact same spot, eating the exact same thing, with the exact same person. I smiled to myself as I thought of the past few weeks. I might be stalking him but who cares .

His lovely smile stole my heart the very first time I saw him, exactly one year ago. Back then, I didn't even know who he was. All I knew was that I've fallen in love at first sight with a stranger .And when he smiled at me before he left, he stole my heart, my mind, my soul.

I didn't meet him again until a few months ago, when a friend of mine told me that about a cute worker in a book shop few blocks away from ours.

After work ended that day, I hung back . As I sat there, sipping a glass of orange juice, someone came towards my table and sat down in front of me.

I ignored him as I was not in the mood to entertain anyone. I was in a bad mood,. I raised my head to ask him to leave, when I saw who it was. It was him! The apple of my eye! Gray fullbuster.

I stared at him, speechless. His stare caught me off-guard, and I melted on the spot. Oh my God, if he stays there for a second longer, I think I can fall right through the floor! I thought to myself as I try to bring myself together.

"Hey, you're juvia, right?"
"Y-Yeah..." I couldn't bring myself to answer him. OMG, he knows my name!!!
"Are you... Err, are you waiting for someone?" he asked, looking around.
"Err, kinda..."
"Oh, okay then. Em, I was about to ask you to join me for a cup of coffee, but never mind. I guess I'll see you around," he said with a dejected face. He stood up abruptly and started to walk away.
"gray !" I heard my voice calling out his name without realising it.
"Yeah?" He stopped and turned in my direction.
"Em, how does lunch on Sunday sounds?" I asked.
"Sunday ? Hmm, yeah, lunch sounds nice," he answered. "I'll see you again here?"
"Saturday, 12:30pm, yeah?"
"Yeah, sure. See you then." He smiled at me and walked away.

I sat at the table, starstruck. I could not believe that I just spoke to him. I pinched myself in an attempt to wake up from the dream, but all I got was pain. So, it wasn't a dream after all. I smiled in the direction he left as erza and Lucy came up to me.

"Hey! What are you smiling at?" lucy asked, dropping her stack of books on the table, waking me up from my daydreams.
"Eh! When did you guys get here?"
"Long enough to see you drooling. What happened?" erza said while removing her glasses.
"gray He talked to me."
"OMG, HE DID NOT!" lucy shrieked.
"What did he said?!" erza asked.
"He wanted to have 'a cup of coffee' with me today, but I told him I'm meeting you guys," I said.
"WHY IN THE WORLD DID YOU SAY THAT?!?! Come on juvi ! You've been waiting for him for a year! And now, you have a chance to talk to him and you blew it off?!"
"I didn't. We're having lunch on Sunday ," I added with a smile.

"Aren't you psyched you're finally getting a chance to talk to him?"

"Psyched? Guys, I can't even feel my face at the moment! I couldn't even LOOK at him when he came here, he was too handsome for words! I melted straight away."

"Yes juvia we know," said lucy and erza in unison, laughing.

I grinned at them as I stood up, gathering my books. I was in a better mood, all because of a guy named gray .

**********

The time passed by, and suddenly it was Sunday. I woke up at 8 morning.I make myself a pancakes. I went to get ready for the date .

I guess I'm a little bit early. Oh well.

I sat on a bench facing the park. My mind started to wander off, and I didn't notice someone walking up behind me and sat down on the bench next to me.

"I see you're busy thinking..."

Startled, I turned to face that person, who turned out to be him. I blushed, and looked away.

"Do you always have to scare me like that?"
"Aww, I'm sorry juvia, it's just that I think you're so cute when you're blushing," he said, straightforward.
My cheeks began to feel hot.
"Stop joking around gray" I said, blushing hard.
"I'm not joking juvia..." he said slowly, looking straight into my eyes.
"......" I stared at him, speechless. His deep stare went straight into my heart, and I swear, I'd never forget this moment for the rest of my life.

The next few hours were a blur to me. Gray took me to a restaurant for lunch. It was not a fancy, 5-star restaurant, but the food was quite nice all the same.

I later learnt that he had been keeping an eye on me for the past few months. I was embarrassed to admit that I, too, have been admiring him from far. He told me that his mornings have been brighter ever since he saw me walking past his bookstore.

"I still remember the first time I saw you, at the bookstore. You were wearing that light blue hoodie with cute little nerdy glasses searching for your books ," he told me.

I was speechless, I couldn't say anything back. There I was, having a lunch date with the guy of my dreams. And he was the one telling me how he has been waiting for me for months. It was just too good to be true.

A year after that meaningful day, we were separated. He went to study abroad and I went to study abroad too but different countries.he got Australia and I got Korea .

We might have been thousands of miles apart, but somehow we stayed connected through messages and video calls . It was the first time I had to be away from him ever since we got together, but I know, nothing will change between us.the day past by our relationship build with trust and love .

The years we spent away from each other taught me the meaning of loyalty and trust. I learnt to trust him and prayed that our relationship would last forever. True, we couldn't meet each other as often as we want to, but the fact that we share a special connection between us kept us strong throughout the years.

Three years later, we were united once more in a simple yet elegant wedding. We owed it all to Lucy and her sister, Aquarius, who worked as a wedding organizer. They managed to transform our dream wedding into reality, complete with the garden reception and a little party for our drunk and wild friends

Family and friends came from all around the nation to celebrate our special day. The day I've been dreaming about ever since he entered my life. Our wedding day .
