Violet: My Love My Pain My Life

Chapter 1

Erza's POV

I walk down the hallway with my head up tall, fixing a stern glare at anyone who dared to observe me. The ditzy pop star beside me laughed at me.

"You are always so fierce, Erza~" she giggled, twirling a lock of golden blonde hair with a slender finger.

"You need to take things more seriously." I replied with a shake of my head. We walked out to the parking lot where a limousine and a chauffeur were waiting.

"Good morning, Gray." Lucy said cheerfully.

"Good morning, Miss Hart. " He replied, fiddling with the cuff of his suit. He glanced over at me. I cross my arms and glared at him. Immediately, he opened the door for Lucy. She giggled a little and stepped into the limo. I got in beside her and Gray shut the door. He got into the driver's side and started up the vehicle.

"4263 Roastbry Drive." Lucy instructed.

"Yes ma'am." Gray replied and pulled out of the parking lot.

"What's my schedule for the day, Erza?" Lucy asked, filing her nails. I take out my mini laptop from my bag and boot it up.

"You have a meeting with Miss Levy about your novel. You have a meet and greet to go to as well. You are recording in the studio at 6:00 pm precisely." I read. I turn to look at Lucy. She appeared to be deep in thought. "Lucy?"

"I have a feeling that you're forgetting something." she said. I pull my scarlet hair up in a high ponytail and adjust my glasses. I turn back to my laptop and scan the files. I never mislace anything. I've always had Lucy's schedule perfect. Lucy was the one who was ditzy and forgot everything. I never misplace anything. Lucy was laughing. Was she playing a trick on me? I turn to her and glare.

'Lucy!" She burst out laughing. Catching her breath, she wiped her tears away.

"Oh that was priceless!" she exclaimed. I powered off my laptop and stowed it away angrily. I turned to glare out the window, completely ignoring the annoying pop star. She pulled on my sleeve. "C'mon, Erza. Lighten up." I blatantly ignored her. "Fine fine. Remember I have myself a date today! With a wealthy businessman too. Ah~ it's every girl's dream!"

"What?!" I exclaim, turning to Lucy. "You have a what?!" Lucy pouted, her golden hair falling in a frame around her face. She looked at me with sad chocolate brown eyes.

"Are you that surprised that I have a date? Did you think I was ugly or something?" She whimpered and slumped down in her seat.

"No! Of course not!" I exclaimed, wringing my hands. The last thing I wanted was a bawling pop star. Lucy giggled.

"So she does have a heart." She said with a wink. I rolled my eyes.

"So when is this date of yours?" I asked. Lucy tapped her chin with one finger.

"Hm...I believe it is at...our destination. Is that alright with you, Miss Schedule?" I ignored the nickname and opened up my laptop again. Gray, happening to overhear the conversation, speaks up.

"You wouldn't be happening to be going out with some wealthy businessmen now would you?" He asked. Lucy looked surprised.

"Yes! In fact, I am! How did you know, Gray my wonderful chauffeur?" Gray blushed at the compliment and scratched his head nervously with one hand, keeping the other on the wheel.

"You wouldn't happen to be going with a certain Natsu Dragneel, would you?" He asked. The name sparked my attention. Lucy replied,

"No...well yeah kind of-"

"You're going with Natsu Dragneel?!" Gray and I exclaimed in unison. Natsu was our childhood friend. He was impulsive, hot headed, egotistical, and a complete screw up. Who knew that Lucy would have a thing for him?

"Hm. Well. You suit each other." I say thoughtfully. Gray nodded in agreement.

"You cancel each other out." He said.

"A match made in heaven." I finalize. The limo stopped. We had arrived at our destination. Gray got out and opened our door. A hand that wasn't Gray's reached to help Lucy out. I climbed out after her. I look to see Natsu and a blue headed man. The blue haired man was kissing Lucy's hand while she blushed. When he straightened, Lucy took his hand and turned to me and Gray.

"This is my date." She said with emphasis on this. I dropped my clipboard in shock as I realized who it was.

"J-Jellal?"

"E-Erza?"
