Training Together

[Y/N] = Your Name

[L/N] = Last Name

: = Dialogue

Now let the story begin.

The sound of metal clashing against metal can be heard as Erza Scarlet and her boyfriend [Y/N] [L/N], two members of the Fairy Tail Guild, are in the middle of a training session to help improve [Y/N]'s sword use.

[Y/N] pants as an hour of nonstop combat begins wearing him down.

Erza on the other hand, has yet to even break a sweat.

[Y/N] : How is it that you aren't even showing the slightest sign of fatigue babe?

He asks as he quickly dodges an incoming sword slash.

Erza : It all comes from practice and experience [Y/N].

She responds as she swings at him again, which he manages to block with his sword.

[Y/N] : Well, I hope I can get as good as you someday, because as of right now, my skill level kinda maxes out somewhere around mediocre.

He says half jokingly and half seriously, which his girlfriend takes issue with.

Erza : You are not mediocre [Y/N]! You're one of the best sword wielders I've ever met! Don't be so hard on yourself!

[Y/N] : You're only saying that because you're my girlfriend and you don't want to hurt my feelings. Let's be honest Erza, I just don't have much to offer in terms of skill.

Fed up with hearing the man she loves belittle himself, Erza grips her sword tighter and unleashes a fury of attacks at [Y/N], which he somehow manages to block with little effort.

After Erza finishes her barrage of slashes, [Y/N] wipes a bead of sweat from his brow and looks at her with wide eyes.

[Y/N] : What the heck Erza! Were you trying to cut me into pieces?!

Erza : No. I was just proving my point.

[Y/N] : Your point? What are you talking about?

She shakes her head as a small smile appears on her face.

Erza : [Y/N], you blocked each and every one of my attacks with hardly any effort despite already feeling winded from our training. Does that seem like something that someone who's, and I quote, "skill level kinda maxes out somewhere around mediocre"?

[Y/N] : N-no?

Erza : Exactly. You have a lot of skill [Y/N], and I know that you are capable of so much more, but there's one thing keeping you from reaching your highest potential.

[Y/N] : And that would be?

Erza : YOU'VE GOT TO STOP PUTTING YOURSELF DOWN!

She yells, causing [Y/N] to flinch.

Erza : S-sorry for yelling [Y/N], but it irritates me when you speak so negatively of yourself. And before you interject, no, I am not just saying this because I'm your girlfriend and I love you. I'm saying this because I've seen how amazing your swordsmanship is, everyone in the guild knows how skilled you are, except for yourself.

The red-haired mage takes her boyfriend's hands into hers and gives him a stern yet pleading look.

Erza : Please, I hate seeing you berate yourself when nothing you believe about yourself is even remotely true in the slightest.

[Y/N] looks down before shyly meeting his girlfriend's gaze.

[Y/N] : You really think I'm skilled babe?

Erza : Yes, and I will keep repeating myself until you believe me.

A smile forms on his face as he lets out a sigh.

[Y/N] : Honestly, how did I get so lucky to have someone as incredible as you in my life?

Erza : That's funny [Y/N], because I've been asking myself the exact same question since we first got together.

[Y/N] : I love you Erza.

Erza : I love you too [Y/N].

The two share a brief kiss before pulling away.

Erza : Would you like to continue your training [Y/N], or have you had enough for the day?

[Y/N] : Let's keep going, I'm not at my limit just yet, so come at me with everything you've got babe.

Erza smiles after hearing this.

Erza : Where did this sudden surge of confidence come from [Y/N]?

[Y/N] : I'm not one to back down, no matter what. Also, it helps to have a strong, beautiful, red-haired woman in my corner who believes in me and gave me words of encouragement.

His girlfriend blushes from his sweet description of her before she regains her composure and readies her sword.

Erza : In that case, it's time to show me what you are fully capable of [Y/N].

She runs at him and swipes her sword before getting parried by [Y/N] and knocked back.

[Y/N] : You've got to do better than that babe.

Erza smirks before changing into her Heaven's Wheel armor, causing [Y/N]'s confidence to drop like a stone in water.

[Y/N] : E-Erza, d-don't you think this is a little much?

He asks her nervously.

Erza : You told me to do better, so that's exactly what I'm doing.

[Y/N] : Oh crap...

She flies up and summons an entire army's worth of swords and launches them slowly towards [Y/N].

[Y/N] : Well, here goes nothing.

He channels all the strength he has and stands his ground, knocking away the swords Erza sends at him.

Despite doing so well, a sword manages to get past his defense and grazes his side.

[Y/N] : Gah!

He grunts in pain as Erza flies down and runs over to him.

Erza : I went overboard didn't I? I am so sorry [Y/N]!

[Y/N] : It's fine babe, I know you weren't going all out. If you were, I'd be dead.

Erza : But you're bleeding!

[Y/N] : Tis but a scratch.

He says, earning a chuckle from Erza as she takes him to get his injury healed.
