Chapter 15: Scold
Juvia's POV
It was lunch by the time we arrived at the hotel, for your information, so here we are now, sitting at the hotel's cafeteria and wow, it doesn't look like a cafeteria at all. It looks like a restaurant. As expected from Gray-sama.
Speaking of him, he didn't join us for our brunch. He said that he needed to get something done and is now on his CEO office on the hotel.
Juvia takes a bite on her bacon and eggs and eats a spoonful of rice. Juvia was sitting next to Lyon and Mira-san was on the opposite side, carefully observing the two of us.
"Juvia-chan, do you want anything else? Just tell me and I'll buy you some." Lyon asked worriedly.
I declined his offer in a good way. "Don't worry. I don't need anything."
"Eh? Are you sure? You looked like you wanted to eat some more."
"J-Juvia's on a diet..."
"Diet?! But you'll get thinner...! You're not fat, Juvia-chan."
"Hey, tell me this honestly." Mira-san cut us off while massaging her temples and then I think I saw a dark aura around her. "Are you two... Really not dating?"
"No---"
"We are dating, Mira!" Lyon said happily and puts an arm around em and pulled me close to his chest. "Wah, you smell so good."
Juvia gently pushes him away, fixed her clothes that got creased a little when he hugged me and said, "Juvia and Lyon are not dating."
"Good." Mira-san smirked.
"EH?!" Lyon said and cried quietly.
"Besides, why is Gray-sama still working? Lyon proposed this to him so he couls rest and enjoy but... All I can see is work." I asked them honestly since I couldn't stop thinking about it.
"Ah, he said that he'll finish it all up today so he won't do anything tomorrow and the other days." Lyon said amd finally went back to his usual self.
"Gray is such a serious man. Guys like him are so rare these days." Mira-san giggled.
"I am here too, Mira-san! I'm serious about my Juvia-chan!" Lyon defended himself and shone right in front of us. I couldn't help but blush a little. He's too straightforward. And to think that he was once a playboy.
"But is she even serious about you?" Mira-san asked back with smirk.
Lyon's eyes widened and sulked at my side. "M-Mira... You're so cruel."
"The truth hurts, bro."
Oh, so Gray-sama is finishing it all up for today. But still... I'm sure that he is hungry today since we didn't eat anything earlier at the helicopter.
I stood up from my seat and carried my tray along with me. I told them, "I'm going on ahead. I'll give Gray-sama a brunch too since he needs it."
"WHAT?! BUT JUVIA-CHA---"
Mira-san quickly covered the mouth of Lyon to stop him from talking and smiled at me. "Sure! Take your time, Juvia! Do your best!"
I nodded and quietly laughed at what Mira-san did to Lyon. I quickly ran towards the cashier and bought another set of meal and they put it on a tray.
It won't be bad to give him a tray of food now. I am his P.A. I have rights.
His office is at the top floor of the building and I decided to go there through the elevator. Good thing, there wasn't a lot of people in there who goes in and out. There's this couple who made out in front of me and I'm so grossed out. Even my friends won't do that in front of me with their husbands.
Once Juvia is already on the floor, she walks directly towards his office. It has a different concept than the other one. You can't see him unless you go in. Unlike in Japan, you can steal glances at him because his wall is transparent.
Juvia prefers his office in Japan.
I knocked on the door twice before opening it. He was there, wearing his usual business look on hos face and I could hear the countless typing on words on his laptop. He is wearing his reading glasses.
"G-Gray-sama? Juvia brought you your brunch." I tried to call out but he didn't even take a look at me or even say something.
He must be really, really busy. I shouldn't really disturb him. I'm such a nuisance. So instead of waiting here all day and wait for him to notice me, I walked inside his office and puts the tray on his coffee table.
I was about to get out of his office for good but... I was stopped.
"Ms. Lockser!"
He shouted at me for the very first time and it seems like he was angry. With shocked eyes, I turned around to see a very furious Gray-sama. His hands were both on his table and he was glaring at me.
I froze at my place.
"Why do you keep on disturbing me?! I already told you that I won't be eating anything for today and yet, you still came! Use your common sense, Lockser! Or don't you have any of it?!" He shouted at slammed on his table once again, making me flinch and shiver in fear.
I was already on the verge of crying but I stopped myself. "I-I'm sorry, M-Mr. Fullbuster. I-I didn't mean to make you angry." So the rumors are true... He does look very scary when he's angry. Like reaper just came to you to collect your soul. "I-It won't happen again."
He sighed in depression and sat on his chair again. "Dismiss yourself and get this food away. I don't need this shit."
"Y-Yes, sir..." I quickly took the tray of food from his coffee table and I quickly took off from his office.
That's not the Gray-sama I know. He must be so stressed because he's going to be doing an all-nighter. Juvia was wrong... I shouldn't have brought him food while he was working on the things he does in just a week and he'll be doing everything of it in just a day.
I pushed on the buttons of the elevator and a few minutes later, I reached the floor where the cafeteria is. Mira-san and Lyon were still there, eating.
She turned to me with a smile when I approached them and I put the tray on the table. She quickly lose her smile when she saw the tray. "... Gray didn't eat?"
I frowned and kept on stopping my tears from falling. I was very scared, okay? He was scarier than my dad. Even my previous boss didn't scold me like that.
"Juvia-chan, did something happen?" Lyon quickly stood up from his seat and went to my side, touching me on my right shoulder. "You look... Paler than usual."
I forced a smile and shook my head at him. I don't want to be pitied on because of what he just did. "You must be imagining things, Lyon. I'm fine. I'm pale because of my skin color."

"Then, what are those tears for?"
I flinched when he touched me on my cheeks and wiped the uncontrollable tears falling from my eyes. I couldn't stop them. "I-I'm sorry... This is nothing."
He furrowed his eyebrows and I could see coldness in his eyes. Mira-san also stood up from her seat and quickly goes in front of me. "Juvia, what did Gray do?"
I shook my head and I lied. "N-Nothing! He did nothing!"
"You stuttered, Juvia-chan." Lyon said and gripped on his fists. He wiped the tears that kept on falling from my face and gave me a kiss on my forehead. "Don't worry. I'll talk to Gray."
"No, Lyon! Please, no..." I begged him. "He just scolded me for disturbing him while he was working. And he called the food shit and I was practically wrong so---"
"WHAT?! HE GOT MAD FOR YOU BECAUSE OF THAT?!" He exclaimed in anger, causing the other employees to look at us. Good thing the other customers are at their rooms.
"Juvia, you're not wrong. You were just worried. Gray is the one who's wrong." Mira-san said in frustration. "Gosh, he always does this to his Personal Assistants. You were bringing him food everyday at his office so I thought he stopped and now..."
"Don't stop me. I'm really going to knock the hell out of my cousin's handsome face." Lyon said and gave a squeeze on my hand before walking towards the elevator.
"Juvia, don't worry. I did this before with him too when he got angry at his Personal Assistant." Mira-san gave me a reassuring smile and wiped the few tears on my face. "You can stop crying now. Lyon will just talk to him."
Oh, I hope so.
