Teenage Minds

Chapter 10- On October 4

Jellal

A golden light shined into my face. I sighed. I pushed my Azul bangs out of my eyes and looked at my calendar that read October 4. I felt the cool, autumn breeze blow against my bare torso. I haven't felt this relief in awhile. There's something about the fall that makes me happy. Then I remembered, its time to go to school. I groaned in agony. But I should go, today is Friday, your favorite day of the week bud. Why do I always do that now?! Lately, I've been talking to myself as if I was another person. Like having these conversations. Sometimes, it keeps me up at night.

Maybe moms right. I should get counseling.

I hopped out of bed and into the bathroom I went. Surprisingly, Erza was not in the bathroom. Usually, she'd be taking her sweet time in the bathroom doing whatever girls do in the morning. I entered and began brushing my teeth. Once I was done, I brushed my hair and took a shower-not in that order. I threw on a baby blue button up and some black pants, topped with a sweater. This new no uniform policy comes in handy when you wanna look good, I heard. There it is again...

"Who are you talking to Jellal?" I asked myself. I exited the bathroom, into her room I went. To  no avail, there was no Erza. I jogged downstairs to see Sting, Rogue, dad and mom sitting at the table eating eggs Benedict. "Good morning sweetie," mom smiled. "Good morning, where's Erza?" I asked, taking a seat between Sting and Rogue. "Someone's got the early morning jitters," dad joked, mom giggled. "She went to school early for an assembly," Sting informed. I nodded and began to chow down. I wonder where she'd be going that early, the voice said. "I do too," I mumbled.

I walked into advisory, greeted by the normal. "Jelly-Sama!" A group of girls swooned at a table. "Jellal, over here!" I saw Erik wave. I went over to our normal table, B-41. There sat Meredy, Sorano, Erik, and Macbeth. "Did you see assembly?" Meredy asked as I sat down beside Macbeth. "No, what happened?" I asked. "The Fall Ball Queen Debate," Macbeth informed. "There was tea, and drama," Sorano sipped from her milk carton. "Or, everyone's totally voting for Erza!" Meredy clapped. "She outnumbered Minerva's vote count, so far," Erik added.

"Where is she?" I asked, curiously. I looked around and spotted that the tables were more isolated than usual. "All the candidates are in the auditorium, let's go see," Sorano stood up, we followed.

There I saw Minerva, Kagura, Risley, Sherry, Laki, and Erza lined up. I saw Erza look up from a paper and wave at me, cheerily. Isn't she adorable, you don't deserve her, my smile turns into a frown. "Shut up," I grunted. "You alright Jelly bean?" Meredy asked as we took a seat in the front row. "I-I'm fine," I lied to my best friend before guilt overtook me.

I saw Erza step up to the podium, paper in hand. I saw a half-in-half response. Half clapped and cheered, half rolled their eyes in jealousy. "Hey Jellal!" Levy whisper yelled from behind me. "You guys are here too?" I asked. "Why wouldn't we be? She's our best friend," Natsu chimed in.

"Hi. My name is Erza Scarlet. I am running for Fall Ball Queen. I feel I am the most suitable because I give the school 50/50. At times, I can be cheery, enterprising, and care free. At other times I can be serious and well sought-out," Erza started, "if I am to be Fall Ball Queen, I am to be honest with you. I wouldn't be much reliable for emotional advice on a professional level, but more on a level from experience with any experiences you've had. If anything, you'd go to our school counselor first, Miss Vermillion. If I were to take place, I would want the best for our hierarchy secondary school," Erza said.

"For the best school changes, I think you should vote me, for Fall Ball Queen. It would be much appreciated if you did. And remember, think bolder. Think Scarlet," Erza smiled charismatically. The crowd erupted into claps and cheers. I was certain I haven't heard her speak so professional.

As the other candidates made their speeches, I'm sure Erza should get the most votes. Her speech was the most humble and mostly relied on what she knew she could do instead of why you should vote for her. I stood up from my seat, along with Natsu, Lucy, Levy, Erik, and Meredy. Sorano and Macbeth had to leave early. Gray and Juvia sat on the other side of the auditorium. Probably to play tonsil hockey. We approached the scarlet haired girl, she was so happy. "I'm glad you could make it, Jellal," she said to me.

Then, I looked at her attire. I couldn't help but blush and feel flustered. "Y-you did good," I managed to say. "We'll leave you two to it," Lucy said as she walked away with her crush and best friend. Meredy and Erik followed. I looked at her navy blue cropped top that stopped just below the chest. The top had white ruffles on it and butterflies were covering it. The skirt matched.

Her sexy, slender legs worked a nerve in my body. "Thanks," she smiled. I swallowed a lump in my throat, my breathing hitched a second before I was able to speak. "Follow me," I insisted, taking her warm palm into my sweaty one. We were both on the third floor of the school. I knew where I wanted her. I wanted her sweet, innocent face and mind to myself. I wanted her sexy, petite frame, all to myself. The next stop was the janitors closet.

Janitor Leal's closet.

I pulled into the dark, but spacious closet. "J-Jellal? What're you doing?" She asked. I felt her tense up at my touch, her breathing getting less steady as I look into her fiery, amber brown eyes. "Let me perform." I said to her in a seductive tone. I leaned so close to her, I felt her ice cold breath against my lustful lips. I kissed her lips. I explored her moist cavern.

As the kiss was deepened, the more I saw her doe eyes turn wanton. I pulled away from her mouth, my lips traveling down her collarbone, leaving purple markings. A moan escaped her plump lips. I felt my want for her grow at the sound. Right then, I hungrily took what I want, right there in old Leal's closet.

We made love in a janitor closet. Not the ideal place, but it felt magical.

The assembly started at 7:45 am. We got finished doing that at 8:20 am. I should've made it snappier. We have classes to get to. I pulled my shirt over my head and Erza pulled her skirt over her bottom. You don't deserve her, the voice appeared. A frown formed on my face.

Erza looked at me. "Jellal," she started. "Yeah?" I asked. "You feel guilty don't you," she told more than asked. And before I was able to give an answer, she said something to me that stuck to me my entire life.

"Don't feel guilty. For you are my sin, and I am yours."
