Gray X Reader: My Protector (Wattys2016)

Chapter 41: Lucky guess?

Your POV

Master allowed me to re-join the guild thankfully and now I was sat with Mira, Cana, Erza and Lucy.

"Hey (Y/N), how about a sleepover?" Lucy says " the five of us!" She smiles. I look At Lucy uneasily, this was a random invitation... is she up to something?
"Er, sure why not..." I say "but... one thing I will say is I cannot be trusted after midnight." I say.
"What do you mean?" Erza asks.
"I start mumbling deep stuff about my emotions and stuff, so whatever I say ignore me, okay." I laugh slightly.

The girls all smile at each other and nod.
"Don't worry (Y/N)!" Mira laughs "it should be good fun!" She says.

I then think about Mira. Will she be okay with the baby? Is a late night really the best option for her. Not to mention Mira is scary when she gets angry... if she's stressed and has the baby to worry about...

"Mira...are you sure a sleepover is the best with the whole..."
"With the whole what?" Erza demands her eyes on Mira.
"I'm pregnant." Mira says quietly with a small smile "Laxus and I are having a baby together." She says.

At this point I can't tell weather Erza is happy or annoyed but one thing that I do know is that tears are overflowing in her eyes.
"MIRA! HOW COULD YOU NOT TELL ME THIS? HOW COULD I NOT HAVE KNOWN? HOW COULD I HAVE NOT SEEN THE SIGNS."
"Hey! Big sis is trying to keep it as a secret!" Lisanna giggles walking over to us.
"BUUUUT MIRA-"

There's a opening of doors and some blue haired guy with a mask walks in. I've never seen him before, but I know of him.
"I'm back." He says and with that he takes off his mask. There is a boy with blue hair and a red mark on hid face.
"Hey Jellal!" Natsu says "I'm glad you're back from your three month job, how'd it go?" He asks.
"Good thanks Natsu, but I'm glad to be back." He smiles.
"So... how about you fight me now, huh?" Natsu grins.
"Sorry Natsu, I'm too tired, maybe later." He smiled politely and started walking over to the bar where we were sat.

Jellal. I've heard of that name. I swear I have I mean... they talk about him in fairy tail all the time. So... who!
"I remember! Jellal is Erza's crush!" I say a bit too loudly.

Erza, who was already slightly pink went a crimson red colour and Jellal also went slightly pink, but still he ignored my remark and carried on walking over to us.
"So, we have a new member of fairy tail?" He asks with a small smile.
"Yeah! (Y/N) joined whilst you were away!" Lisanna smiles.

Jellal sticks his hand out for me to shake,
"I'm Jellal Fernandez." He smiles.
"I'm (Y/N) (L/N)." I say returning his smile and shake his hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, I see you're a friend of Erza's?" He smiles.

I don't know. Am I? We haven't really spoken since the whole possession thing. She got with my boyfriend... and tried to kill me... but then again, she was possessed, and we were friends before all this happened...

"Yes, I am!" I say in my usual tone. He smiles slightly.
"I see, well I trust you're a good person then, after all Erza has a very good judge of character." He said.

Erza blushed a deep deep red and looked away from Jellal because of the compliment. I look over at Mira who was staring straight at me and I'm guessing we both thought one thing. We need to get them together!
