A/N: I've been planning this for a while, even before I got an account on this site, it's a little Jerza story, set in an alternate universe, where Jellal works in a cake shop and Erza is a student at the nearby university.

Chapter One: The Cake Shop

Erza first noticed the little shop when she was moving her desk in to her dorm. It was a tiny, pink-painted building nestled between a Famous Footwear and an LA Fitness. A sign hanging from the red and white striped awning read simply, "Cake Shop."

She nearly dropped her end of the desk and rushed right inside, but the glare her Aunt was giving her was enough to make ANY person, no matter how much they enjoyed cake, to focus on the task at hand.

The redhead made a mental note to visit soon.

But what with classes and exploring her school's campus and joining clubs and making new friends, the little pink cake shop slipped her mind completely.

The second time she noticed it, Erza was hauling an armful of study materials home from the library. A young man with what appeared to be BLUE hair was sweeping the front walk. Once again the red head nearly dropped her load and rushed inside for a slice. And no, it wasn't because of the cute guy outside… nope, not at all.

But she had a quiz in the morning and it was beginning to drizzle. Needless to say, she aced that quiz. And forgot about the cake shop…

The third time Erza noticed the cake shop, she was walking back from a concert with her friend and roommate, Lucy. The two girls where eating ice cream and talking about life.

That time, Erza dropped her cone and rushed towards it, leaving a dumbfounded Lucy at the curb. Unfortunately, the redhead was meet with a sign… a closed sign…

A/N: So this is a little plot bunny I thought up late one night and just HAD to make a story out of… The next chapter will actually BE the story, this was just a sort of teaser trailer… ANYHOO! Review, please!
