At the guild

Erza's POV

"Morning Erza!" Said Mira as soon as I walked inside the guild. I waved and sat down at the bar. Mira left already knowing what I wanted. As soon as she came back she handed me my strawberry cake. I ate it in silence as the guild around me caused a ruckus. As long as they didn't destroy my cake I was fine. My mind then began to wander to Jellal. I haven't seen him in awhile. My team ran into him on our last mission but that was about 4 months ago.

Of course I know that him and his guild are still traveling around but the wars over now, and Zeref and Acnologia are deafeated, what else could possibly be going on where he has to stay out of my life. "Erza! Someone's waiting outside for you!" Called Mira. I looked up. I didn't even notice Mira get up but, instead of waiting there in my own thoughts I decided to get up and not keep the person waiting who was outside waiting on me.

I got up and stepped outside and was surprised by who I saw. "J-Jellal!" I Said as soon as I saw him. Jellal kept his head down, his bangs covering his eyes. He looked sad. "Jellal, whats wrong?" I Asked. He shook his head. "Can we talk somewhere more private?" He Asked. I nodded and motioned for him to follow me.

******

I opened my door. I decided to take him to my place since there really wasn't anywhere more private than this. The guild members would be all in my business if I was anywhere else. I sat down on my bed. "You know you can sit down right?" I asked him although I wasn't sure if it sounded like a statement or an order. Hesitantly Jellal sat down.

No one spoke. For awhile it was just plain silence until I spoke up. "So what do you need to tell me?" I Asked him. Jellal sighed. "You know why I can't be with you Erza right," said Jellal pausing. I nodded. "It's because of how all the crimes and sins you've committed in the past but I've told you I have already forgave you for every single thing." I said.

"Erza it's not just that-" "Then what else could it be! I've waited for you to finally acknowledge that I don't see you as everyone else may do. I've forgiven you! How many times do I have to tell you that? I just wish you would stop being so dang prideful and scared and you would jut love me!" I blurted out, previously ticked off.

"And if you came to just talk about this you can probably just-" I was cut off by Jellal's lips on mine. I didn't mind at all though, I just kissed back. "I do love you Erza, and that's exactly why I came here. That's why I finally want to be in your life again." He Said as soon as we broke apart. Our faces were so close we were breathing on each other.

I smiled. "About time, Jellal." I Said we we leaned in for another kiss except it was rougher this time. The first kiss was more of our pain. The second one was filled with more love. As Jellal began lowering his way down to my neck I knew then this was gonna be one long night.

********

As soon as I woke up Jellal wasn't in my bed anymore. Exactly what I wasn't hoping for. I got up, and felt sore. "Ouch." I mumbled stretching a bit. I then threw on a overlarged shirt and went to the kitchen. On the fridge was a note. It was from Jellal and it said "Meet me at the cherry blossom trees, whenever." I smiled. Seemed like him. I then got up and took a shower and got dressed right after.

I was rushing a bit I guess. I just felt as if this was a moment Jellal and I have never had. It just something that might not ever happen again. And I'm scared of that. I mean he said he loved me, unless last night was a dream. I just hope it lasts.
