It's been two weeks since Ben had that "talk" with Levy and they both told Lucy about it when she cornered them. But fortunately for both Lucy hadn't gotten mad, rather she was glad Levy was feeling better.

Not to mention she now had someone to gab about Ben with, believe it or not since she found out Lucy and Levy have both had excursions with Ben. Much to his surprise, and sometimes with both of them at once, he must really be glad he moved out of parents house.

As of right now Ben had been at Plumber HQ, he wanted to give Erza her mail. Turns out the armor mage had gained a few fans in her short time here. She's considered the most powerful and most beautiful fighter in the Plumbers.

And recently she's also subscribed to a magazine regarding weaponry, and not guns or crossbows I mean actual swords and armors. "Let's see, where did Erza say she would be again?" He asked before hearing a familiar grunting noise. Looking ahead he saw his half tetramand friend Manny get thrown out of the training room.

"Ow... okay you win" he groaned waving the white flag of surrender. And out of the room strapped Erza "and was that so hard to admit defeat?" She asked. "Oh hey Erza" Ben called out, she turned her attention to him "oh hello Ben, what's going on?" She asked "Got four letters for you from fans and the new issue of that magazine you like" Ben answered handing them to her.

"Oh thank you Ben is well appreciated" she thanked "dude, your roommate is strong" Manny muttered getting up. "I was considered the strongest woman in fairy tail for a reason you know" the red head commented. "I'd say that's confirmed" Ben replied before Jeremy from inhuman resources bumped into him and made Ben nearly fall on Erza. Luckily he caught himself... but not without accidentally kissing her on the cheek.

the two separated blushing, Manny on the other hand whistled audibly, "Wow Ben. You are one sly fox" he said making the two fume in anger, then he was hit in the head by Hellen. "OW?!?!" He yelled in pain "Manny you do realize you're a pervert right?" She said judgmentally.

Later that night Ben had went to use the restroom when he heard something behind Erza's door. From the sound it was... sobbing, he gulped and gently knocked on the door "Erza, are you okay?" He asked.

The door opened to reveal said girl, only her eyes were watering "Erza what's wrong?" He asked. She hugged him "it... it's my... Jellal... he was a friend of mine back in our original world..." she explained. "You're boyfriend?" Ben asked, she sniffles and nodded "he was an enemy before but he changed..." she explained. Turns out the way Ben kissed her on the cheek had re-opened that wound.

"I guess a lot of people lost who they loved" Ben said, she looked at him "Levy lost Gajeel and was heart broken. And I know Lucy liked a guy named Natsu for a time" Ben said.

"And I also lost people who I loved" Ben added, "why does it have to be this way?" Erza asked wiping a tear from her face. "I don't know, but like you said, the only thing we can do is live so everyone can live through us" he said. Erza smiled "you remembered that huh?" She asked "I've been where you are, plus we're more similar that you think" Ben said. "Oh and how?" Erza asked, "Well for one according to Lucy we're both loyal friends. We always stand up for our friends and family" Ben said.

"Okay that is true" Erza said, "and Levy said our abilities are pretty similar, you can change into different armors that give you new abilities while I can turn into other creatures that have different powers" He explained. She then held up two fingers to count how many similarities they have. "Next was apparently our obsession with food, Lucy told me you really like strawberries, and I really like smoothies" Ben said.

Erza giggled at that, she couldn't deny it, "because we're nearly the same us adaptables should stick up and help each other" Ben said holding Erza's hand. She looked a little surprised, then nodded "yes... thank you Ben" she said.

And now that she got a closer look at Ben... he looked very... appealing to her, like a piece of her she never knew about had been attracted to him. "Hey Ben... has anyone ever said... you have nice eyes?" She asked moving closer to him.

"A few times" he replied, "well you do, not to mention your rather handsome, and you've got a good personality to match it" Erza added moving closer and put a hand on his shoulder. 'Wait... is Erza starting to...' Ben was thinking, 'I know you would've wanted me to move on Jellal, the only way I can is to open my heart to another' she thought.

"Erza, I... I..." Ben stuttered as the two leaned closer to each other "yes?" She replied as their breathing got heavier. 'I won't be able to hold back' he thought, 'kiss me you fool.'

The red head had gulped, then kissed Ben, he wasn't shocked this time though. He actually kissed back, 'wow, Ben's lips... his kisses feel so good' Erza thought as she let his tongue slip in. 'I never knew Erza could be this bold, now I believe what Levy and Lucy said about those novels she reads' Ben thought.

"Ben... if you would... do me a favor" she said before glowing a golden light. Once it died down Erza was... all natural... "Uh Erza" He said confused, "please, I... I need you" she said hugging him. 'I really can't stand to see Erza in pain, it's as bad when I Lucy crying for the rest of her guild or Levy crying over Gajeel' Ben sighed.

"I don't want to see you upset Erza, I'll try what I can" he said before hugging back. 'I don't know why but, being in Ben's arms feels right' Erza thought, the hero then brought her to the bed.

"Just as a warning Erza, this may hurt at first" Ben said, "it's fine, please" she said. Ben leaned down and kissed Erza, then she felt a sharp pain shoot through her and moaned, it stuck for a while then it slowly subsided. 'Ben has... has... he's made me... a woman...' Erza thought.

The rest of the night had resulted in a bizarre sound coming from Erza's room. But luckily her walls were sound proof, as to why I do not know.
