Zervis one-shots (Book One)

Forever and always (Season Final)

"I'll come back I promise, and when I do we can be together."

"I'll wait for you, even if it means years. I'll wait for you to return."

We had one last kiss before he boarded the plane. He took one last look at me, gave a warm smile then disappeared. I held those words close to my heart, I know he'll be back. He wouldn't forget to come back for me right?

"Mavis!"

"Ah, What."

"You were spacing out again. What is on your mind that is more importation then your wedding."

Zera placed her hands on her hips waiting for my response. "It's nothing important anymore. sorry, what were we talking about?" She rolled her eyes then went back to fixing the plates on the table. In a few day I'll being getting married to Yuri, someone I've been friends with for a long time. About a year ago he asked me to marry him, I don't know why I said yes, but I did.

"Wow this place looks wonderful."

Zera and I both saw Yuri walk in and look at everything in the reception hall. "Good Job Mavis, and of course you too Zera." Zero just nodded her head and continued working, I felt his arms wrap around my waist and kiss the side of my head. "I can't wait, you'll be my wife and I'll be so happy. Wont you?" All I could do was nod, I didn't want to say what I was really thinking.

"Yuri, I gotta go check on something for the wedding. I'll see you later."

I got out of his grasp, kissed his cheek, then left him alone. Walking on the sidewalk, I went to my favorite spot a bench overlooking a little river. The sun was hitting it just right, making the water look like diamonds. This spot became my favorite after him and I sat here all night and talked, this is also the place where he told me he loved me.

"Where did you go Zeref? It's been years sense I've heard from you. Did you forget about me and move on to someone better?"

A lump formed in my throat, thinking about him with someone else hurts my heart. I left the area and ran home with my head lowered from others. I got to my place, but someone was at my door. I thought it was the drunk neighbors thinking that my place was their place, but something about this guy seemed different. "Hey, get away from my door!" He turned around to see who was talking to him and when he did my eyes grew wide. "Zeref..."

He to got wide eyes and ran over to me. He engulfed me in a tight hug and sobbed quietly on my shoulder. I buried my head into his chest and cried harder than ever. He cupped my checks into his hand. "Mavis I-I'm back."He leaned in close to my face, he was about to kiss me, but I turned my head out of his hands. "We need to talk, lets get inside." I moved pass him so I can unlock my front door. He followed right behind me then shut the door.

"This place hasn't changed much." He picked up the picture by the door of Yuri and I at the beach last summer. "Huh, look at Yuri and you. Nice to see you were not alone when I was gone." He set the picture down a little hard, while I went over and sat on the couch with my knees brought up to my chest. "Zeref..I need to tell you something." He looked a little panicked when I said those words. I have to say something. He came right over to me and crouched down so he can see me better. "What is it."

"I don't know how to tell you this, but- I'm getting married in a few days."

A shocked expression shadows his face, I didn't want to look at him directly, I knew if I did I'd see pain and sadness in his eyes. "Please say something..." Why didn't he say anything right away. Maybe he doesn't care about me anymore. "Congratulations. I wish you two the best." He keeps his head down and goes towards the door. That's it, no yelling or anything?!
