Chapter 1
A/N: Hey guys! u This is my first fan fiction EVER, and I'm pretty much a die-hard Jerza fan.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN FAIRY TAIL- IT BELONGS TO HIRO MASHIMA!
It was the beginning of a new semester at Fairy Tail University. Erza was bubbling with excitement upon stepping into her dorm room; it was hard to believe that she had been spending the past three years at F.T.U (Fairy Tail University). This is the year that she would graduate. Nothing made Erza any happier than this.
"Long time no see, Erza."
Erza nearly dropped her belongings when she heard her roommate's voice. "Mira!"
Mirajane giggled and briefly hugged Erza, only stopping to help pick up her books. Erza thanked her, and continued to unpack.
"Senior year, huh? I can't believe that we made it this far together!"
"Don't be silly, Mira. Our futures are ahead of us! There are lots more to do."
"Oh?" Mirajane smirked. "You don't even have a boyfriend yet!" She teased.
Erza flushed. "Mira, you know that's almost impossible for me."
It was true; almost everyone at Fairy Tail University feared her. She, Erza Scarlet, was the president to the student council, and her words were absolute. If there was a time when someone broke the rules, she would be the first to notice. Because of this, nobody dared to step out of line; unless if it was Natsu or Gray of course.
"Speaking of boyfriends, you don't have one yourself, Mira."
"In fact, I do."
"Y-you're kidding me! Since when?"
"I just met him during my summer job last month; nothing special. We've been together ever since!"
Erza was stunned. Mirajane actually got herself a boyfriend. For three years at F.T.U, she was oblivious to the fact that most men were heads over heels for her. It was surprising to hear that Mira actually found "the one". Erza sighed. It was about time, anyway.
Her eyes moved slowly towards the clock. "Oh no, I'm going to be late!"
"What are you talking about, Erza? It's 7:58 a.m; our classes start at 9!"
"That's not it... I'm one of the tour guides for the incoming freshmen!"
Erza groaned. She was always so punctual, but it looked like she wasn't going to make it this time. Plus, she wasn't even finished unpacking!
"Tell you what: I'll help you unpack while you're gone."
"Are you sure, Mira?" Mira nodded.
"Thanks a bunch! I owe you."
...
Erza sprinted down the hallway, ran down 4 flights of stairs and walked into the auditorium. Thank god; she was a minute early.
Principal Makarov was still on stage wrapping up his speech. Erza quietly made her way to the front where the other tour guides were. As soon as she got there, Erza received a light nudge from Bisca, and looked at her in surprise.
"Hey."
"Long time no see, Erza-san."
"Yes, it has been awhile." Erza smiled. "How are you and Alzack?"
Bisca blushed and put her finger to her lips. "U-um... We're alright."
Erza laughed and decided to stop teasing her for a bit. Besides, she could always continue another time.
"Alright freshman, listen up!" barked Principal Makarov. "When I give the signal, I want all tour groups to be assembled. Please find the tour guide with the number that we have assigned you. Tour guides, if you will."
Erza and the other tour guides stood and held their numbers up for all to see. Makarov whistled, and the freshmen immediately sought for their tour guides.
...
Mirajane slumped on the couch of their dorm room and sighed. Ever since Erza left for the tour, she was stuck unpacking countless boxes.
"Thanks to you, I don't have to worry about unpacking anymore," said Erza. "You really are something."
Mira smiled. "That's what friends are for, right?"
"Yeah."
"Seriously, how long do you plan on staying single?"
Erza coughed. "Shut up."
Mirajane laughed. "I think I've finally found your weakness, Erza."
"Oh? What is it?"
"Men." She smirked.
"Oh god... Don't remind me of HIM."
Mira was confused. Erza couldn't blame her; after all, she hadn't told anyone about this incident.
It all happened when Erza was a freshman at F.T.U. At the time, Erza was one of the members of the girl's fencing club who were chosen to participate in the annual state championship games. This wasn't surprising however, for Erza was athletic. Just before her match started, a man named Ichiya from Blue Pegasus Academy appeared out of nowhere and fancied Erza for her "parfum". It was especially annoying when he said the word "men" at the end of his sentences. Erza wasn't fond of his appearance ever since that incident. Thinking about it was enough to send chills down her spine.
"Erza? Erza!"
Erza snapped out of her trance. "S-sorry! I was just thinking..."
Mirajane gasped. "Could it be? Erza was thinking about a GUY?!"
Erza shot a glare in Mira's direction. "No, I don't think of Ichiya in that way."
"Who's Ichiya~?"
"You'll find out at the state championship games. Anyway, it's time to go. We only have six minutes."
"See you soon then, Titania."
Erza smirked. She had received that title at the games: "Queen of the fairies". "Bye."
Little did she know that she would soon meet her true love...
