It has been six months since Tartaros and the disbandment of Fairy Tail. In the first, it was hard fot the fairies to accept but like Master said sometimes they have to move on and get stronger. Everyone of them move on and walk on their separate ways. It was hard at first for the certain red-haired mage to cope not being with the guild. But as time passes, she slowly adapt as she travel around Fiore. The Titania even read Lucy's article that made her believe that the guild will come back, soon.
Today, in the middle of the night, she's in the middle of the forest waiting for someone who has a blue hair.
It's been six months since he last saw her. He motivated her and disappear with his guildmates. During that time they've been busy hunting down dark guilds because the main ones are down on the count. They've heard a new dark guild forming. It's not like the ones they usually they go after.
This time, the heavenly body mage is alone, walking through the forest. He send his comrades on a mission while he ask Erza, to meet up with him at the woods. There in the moonlight he saw her. Her scarlet hair flowing with the wind.
"Erza." The blue-haired mage whisper.
Finally, the requip mage thought as she look at the voice's direction. There he was the one he was looking for. Her heart beating faster as she stare at him.
"Thank you for coming. I thought you'd never come."
"Of course I would."
Silence fill the whole area. All you can hear is the wind blowing.
"I need your help."
"What would it be then?"
Jellal lean against the nearest tree and begin to speak, "There is these cult called Avatar. This one is different from the guilds we've infiltrate. From what we've heard, they had different branches. We can't distinguish where is their main branch. They're gaining more followers to invoke Zeref."
Erza approach closer to him.
"Zeref." She remark. "Did you track him?"
"Not yet. We've been focusing on this cult. This is a grave threat for Fiore."
The blue-haired fugitive sit on the root when he feels Erza's presence moving closer.
"So..." She said, still leaning on the tree. "You need my help infiltrating this cult."
He gave her a nod. "I'm in." She add.
Jellal stand up, not looking at her. "I'll just contact you again for the next step." He said before walking away.
Erza watch as he begin to walk away. She felt like being stab in the heart as he walk farther. She always knew why he's putting some distance between them. It's his way of punishing himself. It hurts her see him doing that. Half of her still waits for him to forgive himself. But the other half wants him, now. She finally decide to do the step she should have done before. She run forwards him and grab his wrist.
Jellal stop as he felt Erza's grip on his wrist. "Wait." She says. "Look at me." She said, pleading to him to look.
He turns to look at her. What he saw was Erza's eyes looking at him with forlorn and melancholy. It's all written on her face, the sadness and the loneliness she's feeling. He knows he's the one who cause it so he crush her on his chest and gave her a hug.
She was surprise by the sudden gesture but she melt in his arms. "Stay with me." She beg him.
He was shock by the sudden request, even if he wanted to stay with her, he know he can't."I have a fiancee." He said without thinking.
That cause her to put her hands on his shoulders and push him away. "Not again with your pathetic lie. I know that it's hard for our circumstances but please just tell me the truth." She said almost crying but fighting the urge to let the tears out.
"I don't have a fiancee." He confirm that cause her to chuckle. "What's so funny?" He ask raising an eyebrow.
"I know. You've always been a horrible liar." He just gave her an embarrass smile.
"I've been always in love with you, Erza. I always think of you, day and night. I just don't deserve you and I don't want to hurt you anymore. It's the for the best for both of us."
"No, it's not." She said furiously. "Did you even think how I feel?" Tears begin to spill out of her eyes. "I always loved you. I've been in love with you since you've name me Scarlet. For years, I've been trying to get over you, but no. Everytime I saw you, my heart beats uncontrollably. It has always been you Jellal." She wasn't giving up on him. Not anymore.
"I'm sorry, Erza. I didn't meant to hurt you." He said, wiping the tears on her face with his thumb. "Please don't cry. I'll make it up to you." He said with sincere.
"Stay by my side." She said softly. That's all the red-haired mage wanted.
"Of course." He respond and kiss her forehead then, her cheek that are stained with tears, then the other. He ran his hands on her hair, feeling its softness.
He hold her face as the moon shine on her. It isn't the first time that it struck him, how beautiful she was. He isn't going to push her anymore. This woman just break the walls he build around himself.
"Erza." He said before closing the gap between them and press his lips against hers. The requip mage jolt at the sudden contact but slowly close her eyes and kiss him back.
Her hands drape on his neck as his hands moves from her face to her waist. He push Erza on the nearest tree.He pull away and they take that moment to catch their breathes. "I love you." They both said. She blush madly and he just chuckle at her cuteness.
She yawn. "Tired already?" He ask after he saw her yawn. "Yeah."
"The house I'm currently staying is near." He said. "You can rest there for tonight."
"Thanks, Jellal." She said, smiling at him. He smile at her, the smile he gave her when they were kids.
He carried her bridal style and use Meteor to get to their destination. She felt drowsy as they get near and slowly flutter her eyes down.
He gently put her on the bed and realize she was sleeping already. He look at her face and notice she was smiling. She must be dreaming, he thought as he lay himself to the bed next to Erza. He grab a blanket and put it around them. He lean closer to the sleeping mage and wrap his arm around her. "Thank you, Erza." He mumble before drifting to sleep.
