The King Of Fiore - Fairy Tail Fanfic

Chapter 2

I stood around, with no goals in mind, no idea on who to socialise with. Erza wasn't here and she's the only person I have any kind of friendship with aside from the rest of my guild, but they were all speaking to new people or other friends. I looked around the place and I notice that the Queen was about to trip over, not knowing what to do by instinct I run over there to catch her. I start shaking nervously and blushing as I hold her in my arms. "I'm... touching the queen like this...." I think to myself as we just stare deeply into the eyes of each other, blushing immensely "I- I'm sorry, your highness." I say as I let her stand up for herself "Why on earth are you apologising for saving me?" she says with a smile and slight giggle. I just stand there, looking at her in shock barely able to convey any sort of words "Uh.. well-" she cut's me off before I manage to explain myself "May I treat you to a dance?" she invites me and puts her hand out. What on earth am I supposed to do in a situation like this? I just got asked to dance with literal royalty, how could someone like me get such an invitation. "I-- I'd feel bad to say no to such an offer." I say, still shaking and blushing nervously. wondering if that was the right thing to say "That probably came off as an insult... Shit." I worry to myself, next thing I know I'm dancing with the queen of Fiore. How did things turn out this way? How was I invited in the first place? I'm trying my best not to step on her feet rather than have a fun time right now. "So... How are you...?" I stutter. I'm probably sweating right now... I can't believe this is even happening "I'm good, you?" she responds with a much more relaxed tone than anything I've said today. "I'm... I'm okay..." I respond as I look into her eyes. I can't help but notice Sorano and her sister staring at me with a surprised expression. I glance at them and give them a casual "Help me" look. "You seem troubled, is there anything I could help with?" she asks, why would someone like her be concerned about such a lowlife like me? "Uh... no, I'm fine really I am. You could say I'm just a bit shocked about this situation I'm in. Your highness." I respond in probably the most unintelligible way. I look into her glistening beautiful eyes, full of kindness and purity for a bit. "You can drop the highness, Jellal." Hisui says with a smile. My face goes a little less red and a bit of silence happens between us. for a bit we just stare at each other as we dance the night away.
