Farfetched, don't you think?

"Sit." He commanded, his steely golden eyes bore into her skin. she gulped nervously before taking the seat opposing his, her eyes never leaving his.

"You are well aware that I have saved your life, right?" He confirmed clasping his hands in a professional manner.

"I am aware of that." Erza mumbled, silently wishing he had left her out to rot.

"I've helped you, now it's your turn to help me." he spoke with full authority, slipping a small a red box onto the table before her.

She stared at the box before replying.

"Marriage is a little farfetched, don't you think." Erza shot back, struggling to keep her voice calm.

He let out a frustrated sigh.

"Fine. I will provide for both you, and your family, in terms of money." He spoke in frustration. leaning back in his chair, brushing unwanted bangs out of his face.

Erza raised a thin eyebrow before she felt a sudden familiar throbbing in her head, and instinctively she shot her hands up to head, memories of people she had just vaguely recognized flooded at a breath taking speed.

"I knew it. You don't remember them do you?" Jellal spoke knowingly.

"What's wrong with me?" She whispered, but his ears had caught her words.

"Probably related to that gash that was cut open in the back of your head when I first found you." he answered, propping himself up on one elbow. She slowly raised her arm to rub the back of her head and surely there was a large rough bump.

"Don't touch it, the stiches are still fresh." he warned, she took heed to his warning and placed her hands back onto the table.

"Just because I don't remember anything doesn't mean I'll marry you." She growled a low unfeminine growl.

"I saved you life."

"I never asked you too."

"But I did."

She looked at him, then at the box.

"Fine, this is temporary right?" She mumbled, averting her gaze, a blush creeping up her cheeks. A wide grin spread upon his face.

"Yes, just until my brother..-Just for a bit." He finished, standing on his feet approaching a blushing Erza.

He gracefully flicked the box open before grasping Erza's hand in his own and gently slipping a small silver ring on her fourth finger.

She turned a furious red and refused to make contact with his golden eyes.

"Feel free to explore the house, the basement is off limits though, If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask, alright?" He smiled a sincere smile, but his eyes remained cold.

Lucy had spot the small ring on Erza's finger and squealed in delight.

"Good going girl!" Lucy cheered, only to find Erza blushing once more.

"C-can you show me too my room?" Erza stuttered, desperately wanting to escape the near to death awkward situation.

The room was fairly clean, the walls were plastered with different decorations, a flat screen, and a king sized bed.

She walked into the bathroom, to find it much like the bedroom, fairly clean. That's when it hit her, this was Jellal's room. SHIT. she quietly peeked out of the bathroom door, only to find Jellal sitting on the bed entranced by the television. She cleared her throat before walking out of the bathroom, trying her absolute best to look professional, effectively capturing Jellal's attention.

he placed his hand on the spot beside him, indicating for her to join him. She took the seat beside him but kept a professional distance away from him.

"Now, now we don't look like a couple at all, c'mon I'm sure you can do much better than that." Jellal teased, snaking a hand towards her waist and pulling her closer, close enough that their shoulders were touching.

A small blush made it's way towards her face, only earning a chuckle from Jellal. Oh, how fun she was to tease.

He brushed his lips against her ear.

"Your really cute when you blush." he whispered into her ear, in a soft fox like way. This only caused her to turn a deeper shade of red, he stared into her eyes, which seemed to be purposely focused on the television.

"Hey Erza?" Jellal questioned.

"Yes?" Erza mumbled still quite flustered, staring at the television.

"Look at me." He spoke in a way which Erza found seductive.

As soon as Erza had turned her head, he pounced on her getting on his all fours. Her Scarlet locks sprawled upon the bed. A look of fear, maybe shock had crossed her face, oh how nostalgic that look was. It disgusted him.

his lips subconsciously formed into a thin line as he pulled away from her.

I won't hurt you. So don't give me that look." He whispered a hint of pain lingering within his voice. She immediately felt sorry, but before her mind could come up words, he stood and made his way towards the bathroom.

"I'm taking a shower, feel free to do whatever." He spoke blandly, not bothering to look back at her once
