AN: Hey sorry I was so late to update! (Hehe that rhymed) Anyway enjoy and review!


"I'm sorry sir but there's really nothing else that can be done, you need to attend physical therapy." The chairman stroked his long gray hair as he placed some paperwork on the kings desk. "Look, I've already filled out the medical release forms."

The blue haired man snatched them up quickly and scanned over them. His eyes came to an abrupt stop. "It says here I'll be meeting with a certified trainer. Who's that?"

"Well since Edolas is further behind in medical advances than other countries we don't just have an abundance of physical therapists. So the hospital where you received your surgery has sent written instructions about the workouts and remedial activities you should do and such. "

"Chairman I asked who my trainer is." Jellal repeated calmly folding his hands.

"The council has assigned you one, their entails are at the bottom of the page." He pointed.

"E…K…" It took a brief moment for the king to process what E and K stood for. He let out a feeble laugh ounce a certain someone popped into his mind. "Well, this should be interesting."

The chairman asked. "What is?"

"Oh nothing." He smiled to himself and straightened out the papers.

Erza trudged back inside the castle with beads of sweat running down her porcelain skin. Her chest heaved from doing a job that normally takes three people, all by herself. The weather was getting warmer which meant hotter and longer shifts. She let out a long moan. Sometimes she hated her job.

"Erza!" A voice like nails on a chalkboard rang.

The scarlet beauty turned to see Hughes walking behind her. The man didn't usually bother to speak to her, so it was odd that he was approaching her now. Hughes was a smartass anyway so, Erza didn't miss the conversations between them. "Huh.. oh hey." She panted not really knowing what to say to him.

"Hey. You don't look too good." He shoved his hands in his pockets and bent down to her eye level.

"No it's just really hot outside." She remarked, fanning herself.

"Well perk up, you should feel honored. The council selected you as the kings personal trainer." Hughes eyebrows flicked up.

"I'm sorry what?" The scarlet knight waved her hand caressly through the air.

Shocked by her ignorance Hughes repeated himself. "You're the kings remedial trainer… to help him heal his injury."

"What?" She stepped back, her eyes hopelessly wide.

Hughes sighed once more. "I told you"

"No no." Erza interrupted. "I know what you said. I'm just surprised as to why the council picked me. Its not like I'm a doctor or anything."

"Beats me." He shrugged. "Lord knows you'll work the poor man to an ash the second you get a chance. But the you and I both know the council doesn't give a shit."

The scarlet knight rolled her eyes in agreement. "If it's my duty, then I won't question it."

The personal gym wasn't exactly a gym at all. Just another large and meager room inside the castle that no one bothered to use. In it sat various simple machines prescribed by the doctors. Jellal sat slouching over at a nearby bench taking sips from his water bottle.

"You haven't even done anything yet. Drinking water won't help you at all." Erza folded her arms over her chest.

He gazed up at the scarlet beauty. "Fine then. Lets start."

Jellal pressed his hands on his knees and stood up as Erza flipped through the large notebook of instructions. He heard Erza begin to talk but was too distracted by what she was wearing, skin tight black shorts and a form fitted purple shirt that had the sleeves cut off. Seeing her out of uniform sent chills down his spine. "Jellal! She snapped are you listening to me?

"Huh.. oh yeah… Keep going." He blinked.

"Okay, before the actual therapy starts you need to warm up with some stretches."

"R-Right." He stuttered with a light blush across his face.

Erza enjoyed his somewhat cute expressions. But she wasn't going to be the first to tell him that! Instead began to stretch over, touching her feet, then walking her hands out further.

"Erza…"

She looked up from her position. "What?"

"Forgive my youthful ignorance, but what are you doing?!" His brow raised.

"Stretching." She looked back down. "And you're the one who's supposed to be doing this not me!"

"Yeah. But I don't mind." He said with a cocky grin admiring her toned body.

The knight just rolled her eyes and let out a disgusted huff. "Whatever just do this with me before I send you back to the hospital.

Erza wasn't the type to make empty threats, and when she did make them Jellal believed every word she said. He adjusted next to the scarlet knight and mimicked the stretch she was holding, submissively following her orders. A small moan of pain elicited from Jellal's lips.

"Are you okay?" Erza squatted next to him.

The king let out a feeble laugh. "Worried about me are you?" He continued to stretch.

She blushed slightly. "What?! No. Just keep stretching."

"Okay then, what next?" The two came to a standing position as Erza referenced the large paper packet. The blue haired man peered over her shoulder as she thumbed through the pages. Once her eyes traced over what she was looking for she slammed the booklet shut causing a slight wind to blow her hair back.

"Now we do lunges." Erza sent one leg back behind her and kept the other at a ninety degree angle on the floor. Jellal followed, but not without struggling with the pain a bit, before getting into the stretch and putting his arms down to balance himself on the floor. Erza got up and walked over to where he was stretching. "Here stretch your arms up." Erza slid her hands up his arms to help him balance. Her wandering eyes admired his muscular arms. Her gaze traced over the muscular crevices of his arms.

"Erza." Jellal whined. No answer. "Erza." he called again. Still no response. He broke his stance and sat to face her. "Erza wake up!"

The knight shook her head. "Oh sorry, I trailed off." She held a palm to her forehead.

"What where you staring at?" He asked.

"N-nothing in particular." The knight avoided eye contact.

A blue eyebrow quirked. "Really. Nothing?" He leaned forward. "You seem flustered." His hand attempted to touch with her cheek before Erza slapped it away.

"Yes it's nothing at all, now can we just get back to work?" Her words icy, as usual.

Jellal came to a realization. "You weren't staring at me where you?"

"No!" She wanted to slap his smug expression. "Of course I wan't you idiot!"

"You sure." His hand stroked her hot face.

Erza clasped the kings wrist and squeezed it to the point of pain. "Yes I'm sure now get up and lets get back to work." The two stood and Erza quickly thumbed through the book. She wasn't going to let Jellal get off so easy for teasing her like that. And she knew the perfect punishment as she read the instructions for one of the longer and more painful exercises.


AN: I really had to wrack my brain for ideas to write this chapter. But all the favorites, reviews, and follows really get me going so review! Luv ya'll!
