Chapter 4 - Zeref

Erza's POV

Too bad Jellal wasn't my first kiss...

Simon was my first kiss when he kissed me at the party. Speaking of Simon, here he was now at school. He smiled brightly when he saw me and wrapped his big arms around me. I awkwardly returned the hug because I didn't want to be rude and he was my friend.

"Hey Erza. How are you?" Simon greeted.

"I'm good, thank you" I replied.

"Are you free this afternoon?" Simon asked.

"No" I replied after some hesitation. Truth be told, I was actually free.

"What about tomorrow?" he questioned yet again.

"I'm busy" I said.

"With what?"

"I have a girl's night with Lucy and the others" I randomly lied. That was actually a good idea; maybe we can have a girl's night.

"What about the day after tomorrow?" Simon pushed again.

"I have a boyfriend" I blurted and then quickly covered my mouth with my hand.

That time I wasn't lying. Simon nodded slowly and stood up straighter. It was pretty obvious that Simon liked me in that way and wanted to go out with me. He wasn't my type though, he was being so pushy and persistent.

"Who is he?" Simon asked.

Should I tell him? I bet Lucy would spread it anyway. When I got home last night, Lucy was waiting in my bedroom. She told me everything about her date and I gave her the details of mine, including how I am now officially his girlfriend. Like me, Lucy is Natsu's girlfriend. Right now, I wore my scarlet heart necklace that Jellal gave me and it was safely tucked under my top.

"My boyfriend is Jellal" I said confidently. It felt weird yet good saying that.

Simon looked shocked but more than that, he looked angry. Why would he be angry? Does he have something against Jellal? Simon pushed me up against the lockers and pinned me in place. His eyes stared into mine, like he was looking deep into my soul and it gave me the chills.

"Simon" I murmured.

"Trust me Erza, Jellal is bad news. He's a very dangerous guy and you shouldn't be with him. I love y-" Simon said before I cut him off.

"Simon, Jellal is not dangerous. I've known him since we were little and I love him with all my heart, and he loves me too" I told him.

Then the bell rang and Simon finally let me go. After warning me some more about Jellal, he walked off to class. I watched his retreating figure a bit longer before heading to class as well.

Time seemed to fly by because it was already near the end of lunch and we finished eating a while ago.

"So Erza, I hear that you and Jellal are now together officially, right?" Ultear asked me.

"Um, yes" I blushed and looked down.

"Aw, that's so sweet" Meredy gushed.

You see, ever since those two girls found out about my relationship with Jellal, they have been pestering me with questions. They also sat with us at lunch.

"Erza. Natsu, Gray and I have a project to finish. We'll see you later" Lucy told me. I nodded and waved good bye.

Now that those three were gone, it left me with Jellal, Ultear and Meredy.

"So, how was the date?" Ultear asked. I groaned. Not more questions!

"I'm going to my locker because I forgot something. I'll see you in class" Jellal said before heading off to his locker.

Jellal, Ultear and I were in the same class next period, which was History. When Jellal left, the two girls went back to annoying me. They were never this annoying before!

"Poor Erza didn't get to kiss Jellal a good bye" Meredy teased and they started making kissy faces. I sweat dropped.

Gross! I stepped away from them and tried to run away but they were right up in my face. Then I excused myself to the bathroom but I actually decided to see Jellal. I sighed when my new pestering friends were out of sight. Jellal's locker was on the second floor of the building, if I remember correctly, so up the stairs I went. I turned the corner but what I saw made me hide behind the corner again.

"Zeref, what do you want?" I heard Jellal question Zeref. I peeked around the corner and saw Jellal talking to Zeref. Luckily, Zeref's back was to me so he couldn't see me but Jellal saw me.

"I want you to join our group" Zeref told him.

Zeref was a guy that was in my class and he was the definition of dangerous. He was in a gang who dealt with drugs and have murdered some people. I couldn't believe that Zeref wanted Jellal to join their gang.

"Group? You mean your badass gang that deals with drugs?" Jellal raised an eyebrow.

"Yes. You have experience with these things and I think you would fit in with us" Zeref said.

Jellal frowned. "I haven't dealt with the same things and I wouldn't fit in" he denied.

"Just accept it! Join us, Jellal, you know you want to" Zeref took a step closer. "We have a meeting on Friday afternoon. Meet me behind the school if you change your mind."

With that said, Zeref walked away and left Jellal standing there. When he was gone, I stepped out of hiding and approached Jellal.

"Jellal?" I asked cautiously.

"Don't worry, Erza. I will never join him" Jellal promised.

"Okay, I'm not worried anymore" I smiled at him.

Then he kissed me softly but like usual, I deepened the kiss. Fireworks went off in my head and I pulled my hands through his soft blue hair. He licked my lips for entrance which I granted. I got a bit nervous when our tongues met but Jellal made me feel safe.

"Eww! Get a room" Lisanna shouted as she passed us. I realised then that more people were coming into the corridor to get to their lockers. A blush appeared on my face as I saw that some people noticed us kiss.

"The bell's going to go soon. Let's go to class" Jellal suggested and I nodded.

We headed over to my locker so I could get my books and then we were off to class. My mind found it funny how ironic it was. Simon was really desperate for me to go out with him and Zeref is really desperate for Jellal to join their gang. Jellal's not actually dangerous... is he? I just have to trust him and hopefully our love will hold together.

Sorry for the short chapter! I didn't want to make Simon or Zeref mean and bad but Simon was the only person who would fit the character and Zeref... well, that's just who he is but I still like him. Vote! Comment! Thanks for reading  :)
