ca·ress (kə-rĕs′)

n.

A gentle touch/gesture of fondness, tenderness, or love.

Her scarlet tresses is one of the assets that she is really proud of. Aside from its bold and striking colour, it makes her stand out from the rest. In addition with her surname Scarlet, the first thing they would associate to the shade of red is her, but the first thing that comes into her mind is him.

Just after their lovemaking session, the first thing Jellal would do is gently comb his fingers through her hair. Erza would just give in to his caresses and hum in satisfaction and while he's hand combing her hair, she would give him a kiss wherever her lips will take her, but it mostly lands on his lips, which he really likes the most.

She warmly caresses his lips before she kisses it with her own. Closing his eyes in contentment and giving in to her kiss, he stops combing her hair and instead he gently massages it and appreciate its smooth texture. Even if his hands are satisfied in caressing her hair, he knows that he still gets lost in her lips. They're sweet and soft and he knows he'll never get enough of it. Basically, it's a drug that only he can taste.

While his hands are lost in the wilderness that is her hair, he uses it to pull her closer and deepen the kiss she implanted on him. After a few seconds of just appreciating the emotional contact of each others' lips, they take a break and both heave a euphoric sigh of relief and contentment. Even though they got lost in each others' heat in euphoria a while ago, they know to each other that nothing beats their kisses, and of course, his gentle caresses on her hair.

Jellal then caresses her hair and gives her a loving glance saying, "I love you so much, Erza Fernandes.".

Erza smiles and returns the loving gaze, "I love you too, Jellal Fernandes.".

As soon as they exchanged their 'I love you's, one of his hands reaches to her right hand and lovingly caresses the golden band that sits on her ring finger. He kisses it affectionately and she instantly blushed at his ministrations.

"God, what did I do to deserve this? To deserve you?", Jellal sighs as he takes all in in what's happening.

Erza pulls a frown, "Jellal-".

"I just went all the way to your body-".

"Jellal!", Erza interjects. He pauses for a bit before he realizes that he had made her upset.

"Erza, look I'm sorry. I'm just-"

Before he got to finish his sentence, she wraps her arms around him and pulls him into a deep kiss. Jellal widens his eyes in surprise for a second before he savors the kiss and returns it. He closes his eyes and just appreciate the way Erza was actually kissing him with so much love. Running out of air, they both pull back and let themselves gasp for a little air.

Erza then decides to break the silence, "Jellal, we're already married now, a-and-", she pauses for a bit then blushes. She turns away yet her husband pulls her into a warm hug.

"Sorry Erza.", he whispers into her ear as he gave it a light kiss that sends shivers down her spine.

The redhead breathes a sigh, "Hey, don't call it going all the way. You're my husband now, a-and we just made love.".

The bluenette's eyes widen by her choice of words and his heart rate shots up instantly. Blood rushes to his cheeks as she mentions those words.

All of a sudden, she places her hands on his ultramarine locks, to his utter surprise and gently massages his scalp and the lush hair that's all around it. He purrs in contentment as his hands once again make its return to her scarlet tresses and caresses it all the way up to its tips. Erza closes her eyes to feel his gentle hands on her hair and Jellal smiles at just how his wife reacts to it.

"Do you really love caressing my hair that much?", Erza fondly teases as he slightly blushes in embarrassment but continues to stroke her hair as much as he loves to.

Jellal then smirks then slowly drags his hands from her hair to cup her face. He rubs both of her cheeks and leans forward to give her a peck on the lips.

"Of course I love your hair. My hands easily gets lost on them, because of it I gave you a surname…", he blabbers continuously as he states all of his reasons for loving her hair that much. Erza giggles at his blabbers with fondness.

'Oh god, I love this man so much.', she mindlessly thought as she gives in to his massages.

"-and they look utterly beautiful. The most gorgeous I've ever seen and touched in my life.", Jellal proudly states as Erza finally released a laugh that she was trying to keep. Panting from all of the things he said about her hair, Jellal gave a sheepish smile before he gave her another peck on her lips. Gosh, how he loves those lips so much.

"But not as beautiful as you.", he finally says, emphasizing the 'you' part with whatever he feels for this woman. She embodies all the positive in life that eradicates his darkness away. He is imperfect but so is she, but he loves the way how they are in sync with each other, how they perfectly fit into each others' arms, and basically how they made each other feel, even if it only was a single caress.

Erza blushed so hard and contagious that Jellal basically blushed as hard as her. Her heart swells because she knows that what he feels for her is authentic, and he is expressing it.

She sheepishly laughs, "Oh y-you're such a dork!".

"And I love you too.", he replies as his hands crawl their way onto her skin through her bare breasts. It sent shivers down her spine and she moans in delight as his fingers made its way to her thighs, slowly wrapping them around his waist. She looks at his eyes and she notices the glint of both love and lust in them. He smirks before he passionately kisses her with all his heart. She releases a guttural groan as she replies to his kiss with the same burning passion as his.

She then wraps her arms around his neck, pulling him closer so as to deepen the kiss. In return, he clutches his hands back to her hair, holding them and tugging it as if it's his life source.

As they ran out of air, they both gasped heavily for air, the air that was already getting more hot, rich and steamy. As soon as they caught up with each other, they gazed lovingly at each other.

"I love you, Jellal.", Erza breathly says, but with passion.

That was all what he needed.

"I love you too, Erza.", he hoarsely says as he gives her an authentic smile.

And that was all what she needed.

And then another round of love has begun. (I would leave that to your imagination tho)
