Chapter 1: She wants a baby.

~xxoxx~

Erza Scarlet wanted a baby. Seriously.

If you think about it, it would seemed unbelievable for someone like her, a beautiful, strong woman would like to bear a child. She just so unmaternal to look at, right? But she really does want a baby and it started this craziness a month ago.

She stood up from her bed and looked out to the window of her room seeing the beautiful Magnolia on the starry night. She moved on her own house a year ago so she can have her own privacy. Though, most of the time you could find her in the headquarters of the Fairy Tail Guild. Damn, it was so hard for her to formulate a plan to have a child when there are too much people who like to meddle in her own business.

She only wanted a child. The one she could call hers. The one she could take care and teach her magics. The Great Titania of the Fairy Tail Guild, Erza Scarlet at the age of twenty eight, single and uncommitted to anyone, seriously wanted to bear a child. After completing one of her important missions, Erza decided to put her confidential plans into actions. She knew she wasn't getting younger and if she really wanted to have the child, she must act very soon. But the question is... Who will be the father?

This was actually a serious problem. It was given that she wanted a baby yet marital commitment was impossible and farthest thing she will do. She didn't want a commitment and get attached to anyone. Honestly, it was something she didn't want to consider. She was quite happy and contented in her own so a long term relationship is a big no for Erza Scarlet.

The father of her future baby would most definitely not just some random guy. After all she wasn't just an ordinary girl. She is Erza Scarlet, one of the strongest mage of Fairy Tail. Anyway, the father of her child must be intelligent, powerful, handsome, caring and has the strength to stand against the great Erza Scarlet. She had considered Gray Fullbuster but since he was already engaged to Juvia, he was really out of the question.

However after several days of brainstorming, Erza would like to bet that she already knew a potential candidate to father her child. And that man is Jellal, her childhood friend.

She had known him since they were young and hell, he was the only candidate left for her to father her child. It was known to everyone that once Jellal was a dark mage that turned in the good side to atone his sins. He always had a special place in her heart but she knew well it would be impossible to be with him.

She wouldn't deny that she is attracted to him. In her opinion, he is really handsome. If she was to consider how she reacts whenever he is near her...damn... It is so hard to concentrate knowing he's around. And she wasn't the only woman that finds him attractive.

An eagle knocked on her window and she quickly took a letter tied on its foot. It was Jellal response to her request letter for a meeting. Erza took a deep breath. Now was not the time to get nervous, she should have prepared herself to his answer.

Opening the letter and reading its content, a faint smile passed to her lips.

Request granted.

~xxoxx~

The meeting with Erza Scarlet was a quite surprise to Jellal Fernandes. As far as he knew, they haven't anything to talk about and as he quietly took his steps towards the plateau near the border of Magnolia to meet her, he wondered why would she want to meet him.

Jellal and Erza usually saw each other once or twice every three months to discuss updates about the dark guilds. They kept everything on business without getting on their personal business. But he knew he loves her. He loves her for the long time.

Aside from she is one of the strongest mage of the Fairy Tail, Erza Scarlet was extremely beautiful. Even at his age, Jellal found it hard to control his hormones everytime she was around him. It was one reason why he kept his meeting with her short and strictly on business and kept a good distance between them. He had even dreamed having sex with her but making it into reality was impossible. Though their frequent short meeting did a little to quell his indecent fantasy with her.

Jellal took a deep breath and told himself to relax before meeting the red haired beauty.

~xxoxx~

Erza swallowed hard as she stared at Jellal walking towards her. He was dressed in his usual mage attire with a white shirt, which had two buttons open, allowing her to have a glimpse to his very nice chest. His blue hair looked very unruly as ever, but in a good way.

There was no arguing about it. This man really had an effect to her. And a shiver that run to her spine was a proof of that. As she looked at him, she knew that this wasn't gonna be easy. It would take a lot of nerve to ask Jellal something like becoming the father of her child. Nonetheless, she have to give it a shot. She just wished she have enough guts to make her offer. If he says yes, that would be great. If he says no, she would have to persuade him to agree. The thought that she might have failed worried her but she was decided that she would try her best.

"Is there a problem, Erza?" Jellal asked with a distinct of concern in his voice.

"No problem, Jellal." she assured him, keeping herself in control. "But I'm glad you were able to meet me even in such urgent notice."

"It's nothing but I can't stay long. Ultear and Meredy are waiting for me."

Erza nodded in understanding. Jellal was now with Ultear and Meredy forming the Crime Sorciere, that kept their main objective to eradicate Dark Mage Guilds.

Jellal smiled a little admiring the beauty of his childhood friend. She was pretty as always. Smooth white skin that has faded scars that were proof of her hardship, dark brown eyes that blaze keeping a warning to the others that she might be too dangerous for you to handle. A slender body has beautiful curves. Her most prominent feature would be her gorgeous red hair that cascades elegantly on her back. There were times when he couldn't help but to wonder what would it feels like to run his hand through them.

"Well then, Erza. If there's no problem, why excactly did you want to talk to me?" he asked curiously.

Erza composed herself. There was no turning back for her.

"I have a proposition, or much likely a request for you, Jellal. It's kinda personal actually." she said calmly.

He kept their eye contact.

"And that is?"

Let's make love so I can have a child, she thought but decided not to say for it might shock him. She took another deep breath and said, "Impregnate me, Jellal."

Or was it worst than the one she thought? "E-excuse me? Did I heard you right?" Jellal asked with a shocked expression in his face.

"Why, Jellal? Don't you want a child?"

"Wait. Wait. Wait." he said worriedly. "Why are you asking me this in the first place?"

Erza sighed. This was harder than she imagined.

"Well, everyone is starting to settle down. Natsu and Lucy married two months ago and are expecting a baby. Gray will be married to Juvia soon. Don't get me wrong, marriage will be the last thing I will do in my life but certainly, I want to have a child!"

He looked at her bewildered on her request. "Then why don't you have one?"

"Don't you get it? That's why you're here. I'm not interested to get married and I don't want just some guy to be the father of my child. I thought you are able to provide me the child I want."

Jellal crossed his arms in his chest and stared above the sky.

"So you want to have a child without having any marital obligations. Well, Erza, I do like the idea of having a child but I didn't expect to have it the way you want. So if I agreed, what would happen next?"

She handed to him two tickets and a brochure of a private beach resort in a secluded area on the eastern part of the country. He took it and scanned the information on the papers. He gulped. A private honeymoon activity for a week. Jellal looked at her with disbelieving eyes.

"Just you and me? Having sex in a week? Are you serious?"

"I'm dead serious." she replied not wanting him to doubt that she's out of her mind.

"This is unbelievable. Do you even know what are you asking me?" he muttered under his breath.

"Of course. I know exactly what I'm doing. I thought about it several times. I have a reason to believe that you are worthy to be the father of my child." she replied evenly, trying to suppress the growing blush in her cheeks.

Jellal rubbed his nape and let out a sigh. This was not the meeting he expected to hear.

"I'll think about it, Erza. To think you want a man someone like me who'd killed several men before to be the father of your future child? I don't know what should I think. How 'bout we meet here again tomorrow?"

"That's fine with me." He didn't gave her an answer but at least he was considering it.

"I'll see you then." and with that Jellal turned to leave, silently disappearing to the dark woods.

As soon as he disappeared from her sight, Erza embraced herself and felt the coldness of the night.

'I'm doing it right, right?' she thought.
