Loving The Idiots - Fairy Tail [Nalu, Gruvia, Jerza, Gale, Rowen & More!]

3,2,1, MODEL

April Fools day! Unfortunately I don't have any pranks for you all... Tell me what you've done to celebrate! Anyways, here's part 1/2 for the "model" thingy, idek what I'm writing.

Erza

I camouflaged behind one of the poles as Mira made her announcement. Millions had arrived in front of an invisible stage she was standing on, though of course it was no surprise since she used to be a popular model and had thousands of men trailing after her. Her brilliant smile lit up the whole atmosphere around her, and thrown to her were red, crimson roses and blow-kisses travelling through the air.

She was the sun, and the rest of us were the circling planets.

"Thank you, all, for coming here today and joining Fairy Tail's Couple Week! Laxus and I are your hosts. Mavis and Zeref are your judges! And Bacchus and Cana will be serving drinks! Today we will be introducing the partners taking part!" Mira announced, her hand over the black microphone to project her voice over the excited cries. She smiled at a man in the front row who literally confessed his "underlying love" for her—in which Laxus' reaction was to glare at him.

"Our first couple is... Team Jerza, aka Jellal and Erza!" Mira and Laxus edged to the side to allow Jellal and me to walk through. Even though my armour covered the majority of my skin, I shivered as cool air entered through the back of my neck. Jellal entered from the canopy of trees on the left side, and with slight hesitation I took his hand and started to walk beside him.

His hand was warm against my cool, rough pair. I blushed at how scarred my hand was compared to his, but shook it off. When did I get self-cautious? I asked myself, and laughed at the thought of it. I'm Titania. What is there to be afraid of? We were both in the center of our pathway, though we still did not say anything to each other. Jason's annoying "cool!" noises gave me an urge to punch his face.

Jellal wore armour, too—since we were a "pair", we were expected to wear similar things. He looked... decent in it, though his usual cloak suited him better. "This is pathetic," I sighed to myself and looked at our hands folded over each other. The metal we were wearing clanked at every step we took. I'd now grown accustomed to the buzz of the audience and now it was only a ringing in my ears.

"Everyone seems to be enjoying it," Jellal commented as he looked around the ecstatic people. He gulped as he caught sight at Mor who swooned at him, though she quickly looked away as we stared eye-to-eye to each other. Meredy gripped Mor by her arm and pulled her away—to that, I was grateful for.

Further ahead were the descending stair case, which signalled the end of our "modelling". I smirked as another large crowd gathered near the end. Letting go of Jellal's hand, I gave a pose I'd been practising that morning. Jason's voice seemed louder than it had been before.

"C-C-COOOOOOOLLLL!" He screamed as Jellal and I finished our modelling. "COOL, COOL, COOL!" Jason repeated again and again, and was forced back down into his seat by Laxus to get ready for the next couple.

"Next, we have Team Gale!" Mira cheered, ushering out an awkward Levy and Gajeel who looked as if he was in his doom. He took long strides and Levy tried her hardest to catch up. "Aren't they so cute? I knew opposites attract!"

"What books have you been reading now?" Laxus sighed, staring at the half-running Levy and the chill-looking Gajeel. Gajeel hadn't changed; in fact, he just wore what he usually did, which was black atop of black atop of more black. His long, messy hair dropped into his mid-back, his eyes were narrow and his facial expression seemed agitated.

Levy finally reached up to his pace, "Gajeel, you really have to wait up!" She said, flustered at all the movement.

"Jerza, huh," I heard Jellal mumble beside me. "You know, they really could do a much better job than that." I looked at him in disbelief, but after registering what he said, I smiled.

Jellal took a glance at my change of facial expression and seemed almost entranced by it. Quickly, I changed it back to a serious façade. "It's good," I said, staring up to the sky, "You're changing back to the Jellal you used to be." Curious, I asked him, "What ship name would you give us then?"

"Hmm," he thought, "something along the lines of "Erza Fernandez."

"J-Jellal!" I cried, blushing furiously. He smirked at my reaction and took a strand of hair from my neck. Examining it closely, I awkwardly looked away to Team Nalu who had just started their walk.

I snorted at Lucy's and Natsu's dragon suits; they looked absolutely ridiculous. Happy wore a mini one, too. "Natsu! I can't walk in this!" Lucy complained, almost tripping over her own feet. Happy and Natsu laughed at the way she walked—large sideway strides, almost a replica of an ape's.

Natsu was doing a weird dance with his tail from his costume. "C'mon Luce!" He tried to persuade her, wiggling his butt. Lucy raised an eyebrow at his actions but couldn't help but smile as Happy joined in, too.

"I'm not doing that!" She emphasised, gripping onto Natsu's arm to be dragged to the end.

"I'll carry you!" Natsu picked her up bridal-style before she could resist. The crowd started nose bleeding at the sudden contact they gave to each other. Natsu breathed out fire to add on to the "dragon effect"; Lucy seemed to want to escape from this whole experience as soon as possible.

They arrived next to us, Levy and Lucy blushing harder than ever. We seated ourselves onto the ground, looking across to Mirajane who opened her mouth to announce the next couple. I felt Jellal's knees lightly brush mine, and I slowly edged towards him at his touch.

Erza Fernandez, huh.
