Chapter 9: An unexpected guest
Erza's POV:
After Mira and Kyoya's embarassing conversation, the three of us went to the Guild Hall leaving Mira and Kyoya behind. I sigh of satisfaction. This day has really come to a great start!
When we walked inside, I suddenly stop. My face became a little red.
"J-Jellal?"
He turns to look at me. "Oh hey, Erza! I've been looking for you."
"Y-You have?" I stammered, trying to ignore the fact that I was blushing. "Yeah." He surprizely passes me three, white boxes. They were neatly wrapped up and tied together with a red bow. "Here. I wanted to give these to you." "T-thanks..."I said, receiving the boxes.
"What's inside?" I asked. "Open it." he replies. I did as told and placed the three boxes on a nearby table. I carefully unwrapped the red bow, stuffed it into my pocket, and then I open one of the boxes. "They're cakes!" I said, surprized. "WOW! They look all delicious Erzy Senpai!! Do ya think I can have some?!" Honey says, his eyes big with excitment. I slowly nod. What is going on?
There were five different slices of cake in each box. I could reconize all of the flavors; Double Chocolate Fudge, Carrot cake, Strawberry cheesecake, Lemon cake, Chocolate Mousse, Red Velvet, Black Forest cake, Devil's food cake, Coconut cake, Tiramisu, Angel Food cake, Eclair, Sponge cake, Marble cake, and or course my all time favourite, Strawberry shortcake!
"W-What?... H-how?..." I couldn't have the words to express my feelings. I looked towards him. I could tell he was blushing. "I saw that page, on the Fairy Tail website, y'know, the one that said you love cakes so much, well, I uh, wanted to make you some cakes. As a gift." he says, smiling.
Are you kidding me? Mira's plan worked! That's a first. I shouldn't say anything about this to her. You know how she is going to go crazy over her ships, Erza! Just keep your mouth shut and it'll be all good!
"W-Why would you do this?! I couldn't possibly accept these! You took so much effort into making them! And! And-" "It's fine! Please, keep it. I hope you enjoy them." He says, interrupting me.
"I w-will!" I said, giving him a salute. He chuckles a little at my sudden action. I blush even harder. I then look at him. He looks at me back. My face grew even redder than my own hair. I can't seem to take my eyes off his. It feels like my eyes were made to only look at his eyes than anything else. All this blushing and staring went on, like, forever!
Honey's POV:
I look at Erza Senpai. Then at the blue haired guy who's name is "Jellal." Then at Erza Senpai again. Then at Jelly chan. Erza Senpai. Jelly chan. Erza Senpai. Jelly chan. Back and forth. Back and forth. I kept doing this until Mori puts a hand on my left shoulder which tells me to stop. I did, but questions began circling in my head.
Does Erza Senpai like this guy? Does Jelly chan like her back? How long have they known each other? Are they just friends or are they dating? Is this love at first sight? How long are they going to stare at each other? Does Erza Senpai like Jelly chan as much as me and Usa-chan and cake?
I was soon interuppted by some small snickers underneath the table next to me. I looked down and saw Lu chan and Levy chan. They were both holding cameras.
I croutched down and said, "Hai hai!" They both sushed me. "Sorry!" I whispered. Good thing Erza Senpai and Jellal chan didn't seem to notice. They were too hooked on their gaze.
"Why are you hiding?" I asked. "Because we want good pictures of the Jerza ship!" Lu chan whispred back.
"Jerza ship?" I asked, dumbfounded. "Mira wanted both of us to take photos of Erza and Jellal or 'Jerza' when we catch a glimpse of them together." Levy chan says, still taking more photos.
"But why would you do such a thing?" I asked, even more curious. "Because, if we don't do this for Mira; one she will kill us to death, and two, she said that she will stop blabbing about the Nalu and Gale ship." Lu chan said. "Oh, I see." I responded.
"But we are also doing it for ourselves too, just becuase it's fun! I really enjoy this task!" Levy chan said. "Me t-" "Wait, shut up! They're hugging!" Levy chan squeals, taking even more photos than before. "OMG! This is too good!" Lu chan replies, also taking as much photos as Levy chan.
I was pretty bored listening to all the clicks of the cameras. I carefully stood up, trying to not bonk my head, and whispered, "Mkay, well, Ima gonna tell Erza about this cool stuff righ-" "Honey! Don't you dare say anything!" Lu chan said, grabbing onto my arm. Her eyes grew large and very scary. So was Levy chan. I tilted my head a little in confusion. "Why not?" "Because Erza will kill us if she found us taking pictures of her and Jellal." Levy chan whispered, in an angry voice. "Ok.. I won't say anything." I said, shaking my head. Lu chan and Levy chan smiled. "Thank you!" they both said in relieve.
Then to our dissapointment, we all watch Erza Senpai and Jelly chan leave their conversation with each other and went back to their orginal lives. Jelly chan walks out the guild hall's door, and Erza watching him leave.
"Awww..." Lu chan and Levy chan said getting up from underneath the table. "Well, shows over. To bad we couldn't hear anything they said! Let's go give these pics to Mira right away!" Levy chan said, stretching her arms and legs. "Good idea!" Lu chan said, dusting off her skirt. I wasn't paying any attention to their conversation as I watch Takashi go up to Erza Senpai and ask her if she is alright. She nods. But I could tell she wasn't. She was redder than her hair!
Erza's POV:
Oh my god! I can't believe I would talk to Jellal like that again! My face was red. So was his. But when Mori came up to me and said, "Are you okay?" I just nod and smiled a little. Obviously I'm not okay. My face is still red, my hands are sweaty, I'm a bit dizzy, I need water, and I have to go pee! I just realized that the last part was too much information! Heh heh! *sweatdrops*
I sat down and asked Kinana for a glass of water. She quickly passes me a glass from her tray, and I drink it like there's no tommorow. Ahhh... That's better.
I stare at my empty glass, and very carefully and slowly spin it one way, then the other way. I can still remember every last detail of what happened with me and Jellal earlier. I smile.
~Flashback~
We keep staring at each other and I watch as a smile curled up on Jellal's lips. I do the same. He then looks down as a smile faded away, breaking our gaze. And then he spoke, "Erza, I just wanted to let you know that, I hope we meet each other again. I really do want to keep in touch with you and-" he pauses. "-And, I just don't want to lose you again."
Surprizely a small tear slowly runs down his right cheek. I didn't know Jellal cared for me that much and that he can be that sensitive. He is so sweet. He wipes away his tear quickly and forgets about it. "Jellal..." I said as I touch his left cheek, "I would like to keep in touch with you as well. And I would also like to say thank you." I said. He touches my hand, then lifts his head and gave me a confusion look, "What for?" I smile, "For everything. Like, for example, giving me those yummy cakes you gave me. I still can't believe that you can bake. How did you do it anyway?" "Magic!" he says, giving me mini jazz hands. I laugh a little. He sighs.
"Erza?"
"Yeah?" I responded looking at his amazing, dreamy eyes that always seemed to catch my eyes. He suddenly grabs both of my hands and leans forward a little. A little too close that we were just a few inches apart. He said as quietly as he can. "I really l-like you, Erza!" My eyes grew wide. Did I hear that right?
I smiled at him. Then quickly pulled his hands closer, bringing him into a big, warm hug. I rest my head on his shoulder and says, "I like you too." He seems startled at my sudden action but then falls into the hug as well, leaning his head on my shoulder. I felt like this is the wrong time to be doing this, but then again... Nah! (^ω^)
He surprizely pushes me out of the hug. Aww... hmph. He looks away and speaks again, "Well, I have to get going now. Sorry Erza. But promise me we will see each other again?" "Yeah..." I replied. "I promise." He smiles from ear to ear. "Bye!" He says, waving and walked out of the guild hall's door.
~End of flashback~
I sigh. I still can't believe I would fall in love with him. Of all guys it had to be Jellal. I shake my head a little. Calm down Erza. You just confessed to Jellal. Don't get so worked up about it.
