My past does not define me

Gone

{Erza's pov}

Juvia hasn't been to the guild since two days ago, she's usually here everyday. The only cause of this could be Fullbuster, but I know he's been through a lot as well. This puts me in a rough situation. Who's side am I on? This question bounced around in my head until it dissolved. I don't need to pick a side. Maybe I could invite everyone over to my house, and it'll work itself out? Just....maybe?

I walked into the hall to see very few people except Gajeel, Gray and Levy. It's to be expected, it's very early in the morning. "Hello, Levy. Gajeel" I greeted the two while sitting down. Gray sat alone at the bar. "Hello" Levy answered with a frown. "You two hook up yet?" I asked bluntly. "Erza!" Levy slapped my arm while blushing. "I'm kidding I'm kidding" I defended. I saw Gray look in my direction, he looked upset but....angered. I turned back to the others with a smile. "You guys wanna come over to my house today?" I asked willingly. "Umm, sure? What for?" Levy questioned my intentions. Gajeel just gave a weak frown. "Well, we all haven't hung out in awhile, so why not?" I countered with a grin. "Gray you wanna come over?" I yelled to him. His head shot up at hearing his name. "Uh...sure, I guess" he responded casually. "Great I'll see you all at 5:00" I said while sprinting out of the guild. I made a few phone calls to Natsu, Lucy, and Jellal  they all said they could come. I just need to get Juvia to come. Now all I have to do is prepare dinner and games.

"Am I early?" Lucy asked as she flopped onto my couch. "Nope! Right on time. The others should be here soon" I reassured. "Did you invite Gray AND Juvia?" Lucy asked with a worried expression. "Well.....yes" I said while smiling. "Erza! There not getting along lately. What are you planning?" She asked suspiciously. "Just some games...." I replied. "What do you me-" Lucy was cut off by the door bell ringing. I reached my hand out and turned the knob. It was Jellal. "O-oh h-h-hi" I greeted nervously. "Hey" he said casually while walking in. "Lucy is in the living room" I stated. "Hey Jelly!" Lucy shouted. "Quite calling me Jelly!" he yelled back. I couldn't help but giggle.

After around 10 minutes, Natsu, Gajeel and Gray showed up. "We're just waiting on two more people" I said while laying on the floor for some reason. "Who else is coming?" Gray asked. "Uh....Levy and......Juvia" I whispered the last part quietly. I could see Gray's expression change from neutral to angry. "I'm leaving" he stated flatly. I grabbed his shirt and pulled him back into the living room. "You're staying here" I said evilly. Then a knock was heard at the door. "Oh! Hey Levy, where's Juvia?" Lucy asked. "I tried to find her....but she's not at the guild or her dorm. I even checked stores, and the train station but no one has seen her" Levy said while furrowing her brows. "Where could she be?" Jellal asked. "I'll call Kaito" Natsu stated while pulling out his phone. After a couple rings he picked up. "Hey! Have you seen Juvia?" Natsu asked while walking into the kitchen. "Yeah, I'll call you when we do" Natsu walked back over to the others. "She's not with him" He finally said. I could see the worry in Gray's eyes. "I'll call her" I stated. "No use....I've tried a million times!" Levy yelled. Then Gajeel received a phone call. "Hey, right? She what?! No, no I'll be there" and he hung up. "It was Mira....she found Juvia" he replied while running out the door. "You guys stay here" I stated while running after him. Of course Gray followed. We arrived at Mira's house. "Hey....she's in my room right now" Mira said with a worried look. "Is she ok?" Gray asked.

"I found her passed out in the guild's bathroom last night" she explained while we all sat in her living room. "So I took her home....she wasn't waking up, so I called Wendy over to heal her....she said she ingested multiple pills and alcohol" she continued. My stomach sank. "She....overdosed?" I questioned. "Well.....she is conscious, so I hope she recovers....you guys wanna see her?" She asked. "I will" I started. "Gray I don't think you should see her yet" I said sympathetically. "What do you mean?!" He yelled at me. "You seem angry at her....your the last person she wants to see"
