A/N:
Hello guys, I hoped you enjoyed chapter one. Well here's chapter two (obviously),
Chapter 2
~ • Narrators POV • ~
Erza spent the remaining 6-7 months of the pregnancy by spending lots of time at Porlyusica's place. She didn't really know what to do so the old woman offered her help to the shocked Mage. The time flew by quite quickly and without many difficulties besides Erza's constant mood swings. To deal with them, Porlyusica simply dragged Erza outside to a bench and sat her there to look at the forestry and think. And to much surprise, it mostly worked.
Erza was very nervous to be in this situation and didn't know what to do. She decided to take one step at a time towards wherever those steps will lead her. Erza was enjoying the time away from humanity and got to know the real side of ms Porlyusica.
The birth was easier than expected and the 9 months of pregnancy flew by pretty quickly.
~ • Erza's POV • ~
"One more push Erza" I heard Porlyusica tell me.
Sweat drops were breaking out across my forehead and tears were building up in the corners of my eyes. Soon this will be over. Soon my baby will be brought into this world.
"AAAGGGHHhh" I pushed one last time.
"That's it good girl" Porlyusica said.
The room was then filled with baby cries and the purple haired women brought out my child and wrapped him up in a blanket.
"It's a healthy baby boy, congratulations Miss Scarlet" Porlyusica handed me my baby and went to wash her hands.
I looked down. There he was. A little purplish haired boy with Jellal's tattoo over his right eye. He seemed to have my eyes. He was beautiful. He was perfect. I gently caressed his cheek.
"Reiki. His name will be Reiki" I whispered. My little Reiki.
He looked up at me. His crying had stopped. I guess he approved of the name.

One week after his birth and Porlyusica already has Reiki and I out of her house and back into the big wide world.
On they way to my house, Reiki was snuggled into my arms sleeping soundly. I was very happy but my only regret is that Jellal doesn't know his own son.
I got a weird feeling like I was being watched but it passed and I just shrugged it off.
Once I reached my house, I realised that I had absolutely no baby stuff whatsoever. Well I guess I'll spend the afternoon shopping. I found a scarf thing and tied it around my waist to comfortably fit Reiki in as I was shopping. He seemed to like it and made some 'happy noises before falling asleep. I had quite the golden baby.
~ • Time Skip ~ •
Shopping was exhausting and I came home with quite a lot of stuff including baby clothes, baby furniture, diapers and more.
I placed the stuff in the spare room of my small apartment and then decided to rest.
Even though I have a crib for Reiki, he slept in my arms on my bed.

(5 Months)
~ • Meredy's POV • ~
Hargeon is a really nice city. Crime Sorciere is staying in a small secluded in for a few days. I have decided to treat myself by wandering the markets while Jellal scouts around to make sure we are safe enough.
The markets are nice and I bought a leather wrist band thing for Jellal. He never treats himself so I'll just do it for him.
I was about to head back to the inn but first I headed for a park to enjoy the peace. It beats battling with dark guilds any day.
I walked around some cherry blossom trees and then I saw a very familiar colour of red hair blowing in the wind behind a tree. Erza.
I rushed over to say hi.
"Erza... Hey Erza!" I called as I reached the tree.
"Meredy," Erza exclaimed happily as she put down a book that she was reading.
"Where have you been for nearly a whole year. Not even Jellal could find... you..." I looked down at her stomach and saw a purply red haired baby laying face down snuggled into Erza. A baby. Erza... Has ... A ... Baby!?
"Meredy!" I heard Erza shout before I fainted.

I opened my eyes and blinked. I was in the room that I shared with Jellal in the inn. Erza was standing by the window gazing outside.
"Hey Erza, how did I get here?, what happened?" I asked
"Well you.. Ah.. Fainted so I looked in your coat pocket to see if I could find where you were staying so I brought you here. Are you feeling alright?" She asked slightly concerned.
"Um, yeah thanks". And then I remembered why I fainted
"Oh my god Erza, why did you have a baby and we're is it now!" A practically screamed out of curiosity, excitement and shock.
Erza just smiled at me but then walked over to the small couch in the corner of our room. That's when I noticed that the baby happily playing with a plushy cube.
"Come on Reiki", Erza whispered as she picked him up "let's meet one of mommy"s friends".
I sat up in my bed as Erza walked back over to me. So she was his actual mother which meant that Erza my be with someone that's not Jellal! I mentally cried.
"Meredy, meet Reiki" Erza said as she passed him to me. He made cute little baby noises.
"Don't mind me asking but who's the dad?" A reached for his little body and sat him on my lap. Realisation washed over me. "Oh my God Erza!" Reiki had an identical mark to Jellal over his right eye. I was speechless.
~ • Erza's POV • ~
"Oh my God Erza!" Meredy barely breathed out as she was staring at my son.
I chuckled lightly as she finally got a chance to see the mark. I don't know what kind of reaction I was expecting but she definitely managed to amuse me.
I sat down on the end of the bed and waited until she would speak again. Her moth opened and closed a couple of times without producing any noise while Reiki sat in her lap happily sucking his tiny thumb.
"When, were, why, how...?" Meredy finally said after a while. Then a bunch more questions followed after while she was also answering some herself "Does Jellal know? No he couldn't have, I would have noticed something weird. How old is he? Gosh he's a cutie. Is this why we could find your location? Probably or else the media would have said something about Titania being pregnant. I can't believe you and Jellal would do, um, yeah. Where is Jellal? We gotta go tell him!"
"Slow down Mel" I cut her off before she could say anymore. "I'll try to answer as many questions but don't tell Jellal, not yet anyway." I said trying to calm her. "When this, uh, happened was at the Grand Magic Games. I don't think I need to answers were or why or how. No obviously Jellal doesn't know. Reiki is around 5 months old. Yes he is cute. And yes, I was staying with an old friend of fairy Tails in a forest during the pregnancy and stayed kinda 'down low' science the birth. I don't want Jellal finding out over the media." I answered.
Meredy just looked at me processing for a while. Then she squealed and picked up reiki to hug him. "I'm so happy you and Jellal managed to do some couple stuff" she said excitedly.
I blushed. This was going to be an interesting afternoon.
