Erza's point of view

The clock strikes to eight, i cant stay here anymore. I pull the necklace and stare at it , he  give it to me that night. I just can't believe I lost him again. The Diamond is red more lighter than my hair, it shines like a star.

Lucy come into my room, she smile sadly and sit to the chair beside me. I smile back, her eyes is swelling sign that she cried.

"Erza, I want to visit you before I sleep. I'm sorry about Natsu, he was really worried to you and afraid that he will loose you." I nod and look away. I'm really sorry Natsu, thousand of people will suffer in Jellal ' s hand and I'm just one

"I understand, so how's the guild? " I ask her, she shake her head and look sad

"Cana, Juvia and the others were badly injured including Mira, they fought the monster. We were lucky Laxus, Gajeel and Natsu are helping to defeat it. Master and the other members visit you here often. Wendy was not here to heal you, she went somewhere with Carla, Natsu said he don't know" I wish I was there to fight

"Lucy how come I was badly injured? When Natsu and Gray was attacked by jellal too?" It is really bothering me since morning. Lucy put her hand to her chin

"I forgot to tell you,Natsu told me Meredy and Ultear protected them so that's why they were only light injured that time" I nod. I must thank Meredy and Ultear

"By the way where are they? And how did they escape??" I ask

"Since that day, we did not see them again. Natsu said they woke up without them and Jellal"

"I hope they were fine" Lucy agree. Speaking of Gray I will ask Lucy

"Lucy, Gray visited me last night and he is drinking booze" Lucy is shock and scratch that back of her head

"Drinking booze? Gray? maybe it was just a dream" I blush when I I remember what happen last night, I will definitely cut him with my sword.

"No it was real, I felt it" my eyes widen when I speak the last words. Felt it when he was on top of me, I felt his breath to my neck. I hate him

"Is there something wrong Erza? you're blushing" she stand and move close to me. I raise my hand

"No I'm fine, it's just.......I want to know if he is fine" she sit down and cross her leg

"Gray went to my apartment this morning, he looks like he don't feel well. We'll anyway he is fine but he didn't talk and smile to anyone. I'm kinda scared to him so we don't talk these days, he totally ignore us. I'm surprised that he went this morning just to tell me that you are waking up this morning." Is it my fault?  I feel guilty I don't know why.... I should talk to him

"Where is he when some of them were fighting on the demons?" She paused and think

"Natsu said he helps, he leaves to help some people evacuated safely" I nod.

Silent taken over us. I hold the bracelet Gray has given to me, I hope he is okay.

"That is one beautiful necklace you got there by the way" Lucy smile and move closely to take a good look at the necklace. I hold the pendant and stare at it too

"Jellal gave it to me" her eyes widen and move away

"He gave it to me, the night of my birthday." Lucy look down

"Oh.....I'm sorry I ask" I smile at her and touch her hand

"No it's fine......" she smile back and I pull away my hands

"He climbs to the roof and give it to me. He said he can't come to party, some of the members of Magic Council was there" I smile as I remember that night. Oh I wish I could bring back time

"Erza I know jellal is a good guy, it is all Zeref ' s fault. Not him. The way he look at you is different" Lucy smirk to me that makes me blush

"What did you mean different? " I ask trying to hide my embarrassment

"Well he looks tough mire than Gajeel, he looks like a snobbish kind of guy. But when he looks at you I see a different jellal, I see soft hearted and loving jellal." I smile at her, that is true that he has a very soft heart and loving.

"Lucy can you help me get up, I can't sleep in infirmary I want to go home" I try to stand but I really can't. Lucy stand up and shake her head

"No erza you can't! You need to stay here and rest" I did not listen. I step my other feet and I fall to the ground making a loud thud on the room

"Sorry Lucy I really can't stay here" I crawl and trying to stand up. Lucy was helping me but we both fall, she is exhausted too

I heard the door open and a pair of feet is in front of me.

"You really are such a hard headed" It was Natsu, he don't sound like before, he sounded like the usual happy Natsu and I'm glad

"Yes I am" I look a up and smile at him, he smile back. He lifted my arms and put me into his back. I put my arms to his shoulders to prevent me from falling. Lucy give me a smile and tears are forming to her eyes, she looks happy. Natsu walk and Lucy follows. I rested my head on his back.

"Natsu.....Thank you....." I said

"Anything for you" he turn his head to look at me and smile widely.

We just got out to infirmary, I look around Lucy was right, good thing it was just a light damage. It was not like before. Before even though it was night this city looks full of life but now it was dark and out footsteps are the only sound here. Before it was full of light from the store and houses but now the only light is the streetlights and the moon.

After minutes of walking we reach fairy hills.

"Alright here we are" Natsu cheerfully said and Lucy step forward to knock the door twice. Juvia open it

"Erza I thought you were in the infirmary?, come in Juvia will prepare some tea" Juvia open the door wide and walk away to get her tea.

"Come here Natsu, follow me" Natsu follow Lucy, Lucy walk upstairs

When we reach my room Lucy open the door, how did she get my keys? She walks and Natsu follow her. Lucy open my room and wait outside, Natsu slowly put me down to my bed.

He cover me with my blanket

"Get some sleep, I'm going to fight you tomorrow!!" He smile and walk away, I quickly grab his hand that makes him stop

"Natsu........I'm sorry..........Thank you" he chuckle and pat my head. He turn around and walk

"We're leaving now, happy is waiting for me. Good night Erza"  he close the door.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's midnight when I wake up, I feel that I'm not alone in here like someone is watching me. I close my eyes and trying to sleep. I feel air right in my face like breathing. I open my eyes and found Jellal he was floating to air and his face were just inches close to mine. Am I dreaming again?

"Jellal is that really you??" I whisper and cup his cheek, my tears began to flow when my hand touches his skin. I see evil smirk play upon his lips and froze, goosebumps travel through my body.

"Erza. You will be mine" I feel the spell is traveling to my body, wait I know this spell this is bindsnake he used it in me before. His laugh is low and deep.
