Chapter 9

SPOILER ALERTS!

I was reading Fairytail and I saw a near kiss between Jellal and Erza… A near kiss… A NEAR KISS ARGH $$%%$##%! How irritating! If he wants her JUST GET HER! And he is not even free! The council still sees him as a fugitive! ARGH!

Spoiler end…

Anyways, thank you for reviewing. It always made my day. .


Erza sighed as she walked back to Fairyhill. She hated lying. Yet she was lying non-stop to Jellal.

She did not know how to face Jellal anymore. Her kind and gentle Jellal that always smiled at her even when she failed, even when she made a horrible mistake… But that was the problem, because she knew he would simply smile a sad smile, telling her it is all right or he forgive her or something like that... It made her feel worse than crap. She deserved to be lectured, punished or beaten for all that she had done.

She sighed heavily and entered into Fairyhill. She froze.

Juvia was standing in front of her, frozen.

"Juvia?" Erza called out, as she reached a hand to touch her.

Juvia's body was hard but warm. Erza moved towards her room, a sense of dread overwhelming her.

"Levy? Bisca? ANYONE?" She called out. Silence greeted her.

"Fairy?" Erza whispered. She heard a giggle coming from her room.

"Jellal?" She shouted out as she pushed open the door.

Jellal was glowing, basked in his magical powers. He looked horrified.

"Oooo The knight is here!" The black fairy was prancing around Jellal.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" Erza screamed out as she dashed across the room, ex-equipping her sword.

The black fairy laughed, "Silly me, I forgot I got a date! Gotta go!"

She swished her tail and disappeared

"No!" Erza cried as she slashed into the empty air.

Erza slowly turned to face Jellal.

Jellal was looking at his glowing hands. He took a deep breath and the glow around him disappeared.

"Judging from the fact that you lied to me about me being human…" He whispered, "…I am evil aren't I?"

"Jellal…" Erza took a step forward towards him.

"I killed Simon… Didn't I?" His voice broke.

"Stop it…"

"I must have hurt you too…"

"Jellal stop guessing." Erza took another step forward, hoping to embrace Jellal, to calm him down, to stop him from thinking but he took a step away from her. Rejecting her…

"Erza, I'm not an idiot. I know when something is wrong."

"Jellal… you have changed…you can start anew." Erza forced a smile.

"I really am evil" He laughed bitterly.

Erza felt like strangling herself, she had just confirmed Jellal words.

"Just because I don't remember does not mean I had not stain this hands before. I cannot atone for the thing I've done" Jellal asked, "Maybe I'm better off dead."

Erza flew forward grabbing him by the collar, "What bullshit are you talking about? If death is easier then live! You owe me! You owe me eight years of pain and suffering! Don't you dare talk about death! Live for me if you have to… " She slowly released her grip, "Don't leave me…"

She sobbed, "When have I become so selfish?"

Jellal touched her hands, "I'm sorry…I'm really sorry…"

She hugged him tightly, "Don't leave… Don't hurt me anymore…"

Jellal hugged her back, "I promise I won't… I'm sorry…I'll live for you…"


Erza walked into the guild, she heard Levy talking to Lucy.

"This morning is weird! It is really weird?"

"How weird could it get? I woke up with Natsu on my bed and me on the floor." Lucy snorted.

"Ah, you know that today I wanted to reach the guild at 9.30am?" Levy asked.

"uh huh…"

"I was leaving my room around 9am… and suddenly it was 10am… Weird isn't it?"

"Juvia thought so too…" Juvia nodded her head in agreement, as she suddenly joined the conversation.

"A mystery?" Lucy exclaimed, "Oh It is so interesting!"

"Juvia thinks it is a ghost." Juvia smiled sweetly.

"EEEK!" Lucy flinched.

Erza cleared her throat, "Everybody… I would like to introduce someone to all of you…"

They stopped to look at her.

"I hoping that you would welcome him as one of us" She smiled and motioned Jellal to enter "Come in now."

He walked in slowly.

"His name is Jellal Fernandes"

Jellal flashed a nervous smile, "Nice to meet all of you."

And the guild cheered.

Mirajane walked to him with a warm smile, "Welcome Jellal. We are please to have you here. Where would you like your tattoo to be?"

He lifted up his right palm for her.

"Are you sure you want it there?" Mirajane asked.

He nodded.

Mirajane smiled and stamp it down onto his palm.

Jellal smiled warmly at her and moved away to find Erza.

"He is Erza's boyfriend… But he looked kinda familiar… Hmmm…Where have I seen him before…?" Natsu asked himself.

"Maybe because he looks exactly like Mystogan?" Lucy suggested.

"Hmmm…Maybe…But no…"Natsu rubbed his chin in deep concentration, "hmmm…"

"Jellal, this is where you go to pick a job." Erza explained, as she pointed to the notice board.

"Can I pick one now?" Jellal asked.

"Of course!" Erza smiled.

He pointed to a notice which needs him to catch a bunch of bandits.

"Too dangerous" Erza replied.

He pointed to the one beside it.

"No."

He pointed to the one below.

"No."

He sighed and pointed to a notice which needs temporary actors.

She paused for awhile. If Jellal went to act…he would have to act in front of many ladies…and Jellal is handsome…so if they like him then…

"NO!" Erza shouted from horror.

Jellal chuckled, "Erza, why don't you pick one for me?"

Erza nodded stiffly and started scanning through the board, "No, no, no, no, no, this is also also a no…."

Erza frowned before pointing to the first notice that Jellal pointed.

"We'll pick this, but I'm coming with you." Erza demanded.

Jellal raised a brow, "Aren't you always coming with me?"

Erza blushed, "Yea…I guess I am…Let us get going."

And she stalked off awkwardly causing Jellal to grin.

The black fairy stood at the second floor of the guild, grinning like a mad man, "They were moping one second, next moment they are laughing…. How ridiculous…" And she disappeared.
