Chapter 58

"Erza I'm sorry I'm sorry I didn't value you, I'm sorry for hurting you and lying to you, if you can hear me I just want to say I'm sorry and I love you please open your eyes I want to see them once more those eyes that looked at the world with hope, I want to see you smile that smile that would light up the whole world, I want to see your Scarlet hair flow in the wind dancing which such grace please wake up erza wake up I'm sorry erza!! IM SORRY!!"

Erza woke up she dreamed about when she was in coma someone had talked to her she was so sure it was Grays voice but when she woke up, she woke up seeing Jellal she wasn't sure who it was and she didn't know why she had dreamed about that. She sat up was there something today she felt like she was forgetting something and that's when it hit her today was her date with Gray she moaned she was hoping maybe he would forget and she wouldn't have to go through with this but that's when her phone vibrated and she saw it was gray

"Don't forget about our date at 6:00"

Gray

Erza signed she really hoped it wasn't a bad idea and no matter what she just couldn't forgive Gray it was to much every-time she sees him she was reminded of what had happen it had scarred her bad. She got up and did some laundry today she didn't have work and it was going to be a long day until the date.

Gray was at practice. They were suppose to be rehearsing the dance moves he was suppose to do at his stage but instead he couldn't help but think about the date with Erza. He was nervous he hoped he wouldn't mess anything up and that everything would go smoothly. "GRAY!" "Huh?" Gray said "spaced out again that's the 3rd time this week!"the choreographer said "sorry it's just I have something important tonight" gray said. "What can be more important that a rehearsal?" The choreographer said.
"A girl.." Gray said. "A girl? There is plenty of them out there" they guy said. "But not like her she's .. Different" gray said. "Awwww" the girls dancers said everyone amused about this girl. "Can you tell us about her?" One said "yeah I wanna know!" Another said. "NO NO NO ITS REHEARSAL TIME!" The guy said pushing them all in there places
"I hope everything goes good" was all Gray could think. 

Lucy invited Erza shopping they were walking around the mall. "So what are you really going to go?" Lucy said as she looked through the dresses "I'm not so sure.." Erza said. "What do you mean you're not sure?" Lucy said Erza stayed looking down. Lucy placed her things down and dragged Erza to a nearby bench and sat down. "Let's talk for a moment, so you're engaged to Jellal but you're still in in love with Gray" Lucy said. "I don't know if love is what I feel that's too strong maybe a Like "Erza said. "Does Gray know you still like him?" Lucy said "no! And he most defiantly can't know! Because he'll think his chances are from 50/100 when in reality I won't give him another chance" Erza said "then why are you going on a date with him if you won't give him another chance?" Lucy said "simple because he invited me since I helped him back to his hotel" Erza said "but that's doesn't justify anything Erza you could have easily refused his offer and told him no you can easily cut him off and not ever speak to him again and give him the cold shoulder so why aren't you doing that?" Lucy said. "I- I don't know" Erza said. "You do Erza you just don't want to admit the fact that you want Gray back and you want to be with him" Lucy said. "No I don't! I made my decision when I said yes to Jellal that I would not take Gray back at all" Erza said. "Do you love Jellal?" Lucy said. "No, But I'm getting there.. I think" Erza said. "Then why would you marry a man whom you don't love marriage isn't a game Erza marriage is the real deal you have to love him in order to marry him" Lucy said. "I will love him it'll just take me time if I loved him once I'll probably love him again" Erza said. "Did you really love him Erza? Because it's been a year and you still don't love him and your heart is still longing for Gray do you really think you can love him?" Lucy said. "I just don't know if I'm making the right choices anymore .. I want to say no and not go on that date but deep down inside I want to go" Erza said. Erza looked at the water fountain where young kids were. A girl and two boys both fighting for her and she was happy with it playing with their little hearts. "Wish I could turn back time and just remain young I wound have to worry about no bills, no stress, no love nothing. I'd lay down on the soft grass with my mother and father how happy I was back then when I was just a twelve year old girl living a free life but all that went away" Erza said Lucy looked over too. "I know that's everybody's wish but we aren't kids anymore we are young adults were our lives our barely starting I have a few regrets I carry with me but I wouldn't change a thing I'm happy with my life married to Natsu I found the love of my life if you make the right decisions too I'm sure you would be happy too don't you think?" Lucy said. "But how do I know if I'm making the right decision?" Erza said. "I think you know" Lucy said as she pointed to Erza chest "inside there is a heart all you have to do is follow you heart and the voices of it" Lucy said. "But how can I follow my heart, if my heart is shattered into a million pieces, which piece do I follow then? Erza said. "I'm just over thinking things I'll get back to myself I have to go I'll chat with you another day" Erza said and she got up but stopped "Lucy I think you should talk to you dad it's time you fix the things that were left unsaid you can't stay mad at him forever because one day he won't be here anymore and you'll regret it" Erza said. "I guess you're right.. You should really go see yours too I know you haven't been since you were 12, it's been years since you last went to visit him.." Lucy said. "When the time is right I'll be able to go see him and take him flowers but I can't go.. Not with the regret I have in my chest" Erza said and walked off. She got to her house and took a nice hot bath and began to change she changed into a pastel pink dress that was long sleeve and lifted her hair up. She looked at her engaged ring. Should she wear it? She though she placed in on her finger "yes I have to so gray can know his place" Erza said. She wore some black heels and she heard her phone go off she check it Gray had sent her the address.
