It felt like a big weight was finally off my shoulders. I knew the truth, and I was satisfied; I never wanted Jellal to be the one I would want to despise. I walked back to the guild with him -it was already evening, so everyone would go back again- with a big smile on my face. I was happy, for some reason that would sound strange to anybody.

When I opened the door and some guild members saw me holding hands with Jellal, their jaws dropped, and I felt my cheeks burning, but his tender touch on my back calmed me down. I saw Lucy pop out from the back, and she was equally surprised.

"That's something I didn't expect to see soon", she said. "But I'm glad you guys figured things out, it would be a waste if you fell out for good." She giggled, and I lowered my head feeling my face flush red.

"Master", I said, when I saw him walk towards us too. "Why did you keep it all a secret?"

"Well", he began, scratching his beard, "there were many reasons. To begin with I wanted to help you find your memories yourself, hoping that you would remember, but I guess you already knew that." He came closer to me, climbed on a table and patted my shoulder.

"But mainly I wanted to see myself how you would act in this sort of tough situations. Because we all know who you are, you're Titania, I knew you could to it yourself."

"Well, technically I didn't do much", laughed and held my head in my hand. "I just recalled.."

At that moment, it felt like a wave struck through my body, I felt light headed and weak. It was so sudden that I had to take a second and sit down.

"Erza! Are you okay?" Lucy said, running to me to see what happened.

"I remember..", I mumbled.

"You remember what?"

"Everything... And I mean...everything! " The sound of fear in my voice turned to happiness, as all my memories started flowing in my mind and blowing up like fireworks. I recalled everything I had forgotten: about how to requip, about my friendship with Jellal, about getting into Fairy Tail, about all the memories I shared with the guild. Everything I had forgotten, from the moment I remember myself until the day of the accident.

"Are you serious!?" Jellal asked, as surprised as everyone else, and I nodded. It was so sudden but it felt like those memories were never absent. It didn't take long until everyone got excited and started reveling, shouting "Erza is back". It was such an amazing moment I couldn't hold back my tears.

The feast went on for hours -Fairy Tail always looks for reasons to party anyway. When the sun had finally set and the guild members started heading back home, I remained looking at the roof for a while.

"Must feel good, huh?" I heard a male voice behind me, and lowered my eyes to see Natsu. I didn't reply, but instead I smiled widely. It really did. He sat upside down on a chair and stared at the ceiling with me, as if we were looking at the stars in the night sky.

"That must have been quite a rollercoaster for you wasn't it?"

"You bet it was. Short lasting, but it was." I extended my arm in the front, looking at its colorless image. "I may never be able to see colors anymore, or I might just be able to see them again at some unexpected point, much like today.." I turned to Natsu, and looked at him deep inside his big eyes, with a smile on my face.

"But I'm so grateful my memories are back. No way in hell could I bear with the pain of never recalling such valuable memories as those I shared with the guild." I took a strand of my hair and looked at it for a while. "So many memories..." Natsu got up quickly, and took my wrist, trying to get me to stand up.

"What are you doing?"

"Taking you home to get rest."

"You? Now?.. Why??"

"Because I got us a mission." I looked at him for long, until he gave me a lively, wide smile.

"What sort of mission?"

"How does you, Jellal, Lucy, Gray and I kicking Zeref's ass sounds to you?" My eyes widened and I remained silent for a while, before I smiled back at him warmly.

"Wonderful."
