•Erza's P.O.V•
We are currently still playing truth or dare. Seriously.. how long can one game last?

"Natsu, truth or dare!" Levy asks.

"Dare. Duh." He smirks, arrogantly.

"Are you sure about that Natsu?" Levy smirks deviously, despite her position with Gajeel.

"I'm perfectly sure." He replies.

"Ok then. I dare you to... go to Erza's room and steal her hoard of strawberry cheesecake."

My eyebrow twitches. A glare aimed at both Levy and Natsu made its way towards them.
"Do that. But I won't hesitate to kill you." I say simply, hoping he would understand. Jellal chuckles at my so-called "Childishness".

"Levy! I can't do that! I'll end up dead!" Natsu whines.

"Ok, do truth then." Levy says.

"Fine." He agrees.

"Ok then, tell Lucy how much you like her. Its obvious that you like her."

"W-What are you talking a-about?! I don't like Luce.." he laugh and stutters nervously.

"You do like her so man up and tell her." Gray says.

"Uh.. umm.. well.. fine!" He groans. "Luce I do like you- more than friends so yeah.." he blushes.

The girls all swoon including me. That was pretty cute to be fair.

"N-Natsu.." Lucy starts, blushing ferociously. "I-I like you too.."

"Really?! Wow Luce! Thats awesome!" He says happily, with a toothy grin. "So that means you're my girlfriend?"

Yeesh, I thought, that escalated quickly.

"Umm I guess.." she replies, stunned. "If you want me to."

Without a response he races over to the sofa she and Levy were sitting on. He picks her up and twirls her around and kisses her.

After they were done I decide to break the slightly awkward ice,
"Well, that was cliche."

Everyone laughs with me.

"So, Elsa, truth or dare?" Natsu seemed to challenge.

"Dare me flamebrain." Gray smirks.

"I'd lose that smirk if I were you, stripper. I dare you to kiss Juvia."

Gray's smirk falters and he looks away. I see a faint tinge of pink dusted on his cheeks. I silently laugh to myself. Soon I feel Jellal's chest vibrate, indicating he was laughing too.

"Who knew someone as icy as Gray Fullbuster, could lose his cool like that?" He whispers, between laughs,into my ear. I turn around to agree and then remember how close we are. My eyes widen and quickly snap my head back around again. The memories of earlier came rushing in, from earlier. From the kisses, to the hugs, to the slight pink I saw on his face.

"I-I'm gonna go get a drink." I say hastily, needing to get away.

"I'll come with you." Jellal said.

"No, no! Please! I-I mean.. its perfectly fine. I am capable of getting a drink on my own." I stutter, my voice full of nerves and I don't even understand why.

"Its ok, I'll come with you." He says and before I protest he walks towards me. I don't know what I'm thinking but I run to the kitchen without him.

I let out a sigh of relief. That is. Until I realise he followed me!

"L-Leave me alone." I whisper weakly.
