Fairy High Love (Fairy Tail Fanfic)

Chapter 8- Maybe just maybe

Erza POV

I head towards the town Dojo for my Karate practice. I have states next weekend and I need to practice to get the gold again.

It's a cold day toward. Overcast and incredibly windy. I scrunch up in my jacket with my heavy bag strapped to my back. It's also really quiet for some reason. Usually the afterschool traffic would still be pretty busy but I guess people are walking home today.

I get to the street near my dojo and I see some thugs come up towards. Oh great. I ignore them and keep walking. It gets a bit hard to keep walking when they start to surround me. They have smirks on their faces and they idiotically giggle at me. Men.

"Hey pretty lady, do you want to have some fun?" A man who looks about thirty says as he walks in front of me blocking my way.

"Would love to but I have better things to do" I say trying to barge my way past the man but he wouldn't budge.

I can't show fear. I'm stronger than this. I am not going to be taken advantage of. Not now, not ever.

I do a few swift hits and knock him to the ground. I run straight for the dojo where I'd be safe. I'm almost there, just another 10-20 metres. I'm almost there. I can hear them following but thankfully they aren't gaining. I still can't slow down though.

I am very close to being safe when I trip causing me to scrape a lot of arm and leg skin off. It hurts and I can't get up.

I feel weight lean against my back and force me towards the ground. I'm helpless and I can't do anything about it. "You shouldn't have done that sweet heart" Says the man leaning on me. I can smell the alcohol in his breath.

I get pulled up onto my feet and the man smells my neck. "Damn you smell sweet. We have a good one guys" Says the man yelling back to his friends.

"You might not wanna do that" I look forward and see a man, the same age as me with blue hair, standing right outside the dojo.

"Jellal" I whisper to myself. I'm safe now I know that for sure. He comes over and the men instantly backing away and leaving me to fall to the floor. Jellal has a reputation of kicking people's ass and holding the title for one of the world's strongest.

Once those idiots are gone he walks over to me, puts my arm around his neck and takes me inside. "Thanks for the help" He grabs out a first aid kit and starts to patch me up.

"It's alright, I can't have one of my students be mistreated can I?" He smiles at me and sits down next to me. He is a really good temporary doctor.

"So I guess you won't let me train today?" I say with a poutful look on my face. I really enjoy training, especially with Jellal.

"I'm sorry Erza but I can't let you train when you're not in a good condition" He says sympathetically. I sit there with my arms crossed and I look away sternly.

He laughs at me and shakes his head. "Get in my car, ill take you home" I obediently get up and limp to the back of the dojo. I see a brand new Honda Civic parked there and hop in. Jellal gets in and starts the car. Its weird being in a vehicle with him but it's not the first it's happened. He quite often takes me home to save me walking.

We arrive at my house and I open the door to get out. I look back at him with a smile "Thank you for helping me out, ill see you tomorrow maybe?"

He looks to me and smiles back sending butterflies through my stomach. "Yep but if you are still hurt ill have to take you straight home again" He says somewhat sternly.

I laugh and roll my eyes. I get out of the car and walk to my front door. I wave and yell "Bye". He smiles and waves back before driving off.

I will make sure I see him tomorrow.

I won't be updating as quickly because I can't keep up with it but I will do it frequently still.

Till next time,
