Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail, Hiro Mashima does.

Morning came and Erza woke up. She muttered, "Zeke…" as she felt for him on her bed. He wasn't there, so she checked her bedside table for a note, but found none. She frowned, feeling a little disappointed that he left her. She sighed and made breakfast. After she ate, she heard someone knock on her door. She opened it and saw Mira standing outside.

"Good morning, Erza," Mira smiled sweetly.

Erza nodded and answered, "Good morning, Mira. What are you doing here?"

"Oh, I just came to tell you that Zeke is waiting for you inside the lobby," Mira explained.

Erza remembered that they were supposed to leave this morning. She answered politely, "I see. Thank you, Mira."

Mira smiled and said, "Have a good vacation." Then she turned around and left.

The requip mage took a quick shower, requipped into her white blouse and blue skirt, grabbed her things, and headed to the lobby. As she entered the lobby, she saw her boyfriend sitting on the couch. Upon seeing her, he went towards her and kissed her lightly on the lips.

"Good morning, Erza," he said as he smiled softly. The disappointment she felt earlier was washed away as soon as he kissed her. "Good morning to you, too, Zeke," she smiled back. He held her hand and they began walking to the station. They boarded the train and sat in their assigned seats. The train ride to Kanabe Resort takes one day. They spent the train ride talking, cuddling, and kissing each other. They also had their lunch and dinner on the train and they slept with their arms wrapped around each other.

The train stopped and Zeke stirred from his sleep. "Hmm. That must mean we've arrived…" He muttered to himself. He looked at Erza and saw that she was still asleep. He shook her gently and said, "Wake up, Erza. We're here."

Erza woke up and suddenly kissed him. "Well, good morning to you, too," he chuckled. He held her hand and slowly helped her up to her feet. They grabbed their things and headed for the hotel. They went to the concierge to confirm their reservation.

"Good morning, ma'am, sir. How may I help you?" A lady asked them with a smile.

"We have a reservation for two here. May we know our room?" The lightning mage asked.

"Yes, of course. What are your names?"

"Zeke Bolton and Erza Scarlet."

Erza noticed the lady smile even more sweetly at Zeke when the lady heard their names. She suddenly had the urge to brandish a sword at the lady, but decided against it, as she didn't want to ruin the vacation she has with her boyfriend. She smirked to herself at this thought.

"Your room assignment is 143, sir Zeke. Here is the key to your room," the lady said as she handed the key to the lightning mage. The lady's hand lingered on Zeke's a bit too long, but the lightning mage noticed this and pulled his hand away quickly. The lady looked embarrassed and Erza's smirk grew wider. It's too bad for you that my boyfriend's not a dense idiot. She thought. "C'mon, Erza," Zeke said as he grabbed her hand.

They walked through the halls of the hotel, looking for their room. "143, 143, 143… Oh, there it is." Zeke stated as he stopped in front of their room. He unlocked the door and the couple looked inside. The room was huge, with a king-sized bed, a couch, a television lacrima, a bathroom, a dining table, and a kitchen. There was also a closet for their clothes.

"Should we unpack now?" Zeke asked the requip mage.

"Yes, let's," the requip mage answered.

The couple unpacked their things and placed their clothes inside the closet. Afterwards, they flopped onto the couch. "Whew, that was one long train ride," the lightning mage said exhaustedly to the requip mage. "Do you want to rest up for a bit?"

"Yes, a little rest sounds good."

"Great. What do you want to do afterwards?"

"I heard that there's a nice restaurant nearby. We could have our lunch there."

"That sounds great. We'll leave in a couple of hours."

Erza leaned her head against Zeke's chest and snuggled to him. He tilted her head and kissed her sweetly, tasting her strawberry lips. "Mmm," she moaned contentedly and leaned back into his chest. He smiled and ran his hand through her beautiful scarlet hair.

After resting until noon, they got ready to leave. He locked the door and they left the hotel, searching for the restaurant. After a few minutes, they found the restaurant. It was named Al Fresco. A waiter greeted them as they entered. "Good afternoon, ma'am, sir," he bowed. "We'd like a table for two, please," Zeke requested. "Yes, please follow me," the waiter said as he walked. The couple followed and was led into a table at the corner of the restaurant.

"Here are your menus, just call for me once you are ready to order. My name is Marco, by the way," the waiter said as he winked at Erza. She raised her eyebrows and stared hard at the waiter, clearly not looking amused while Zeke shot a glare. The waiter pretended not to notice this and walked away.

"Damn waiter and his damn flirting," the lightning mage muttered angrily under his breath. Erza placed her hand on his and said, "Don't get yourself worked up about it. He's not worth your anger."

He took a deep breath and calmed down. "You're right. But if he - no wait, scratch that, if any guy tries to lay a single finger on you, I will beat them up."

Erza chuckled at her boyfriend's statement and said, "I won't stop you from doing that."

He grinned. "Now, let's order."

After deciding on their orders, they called Marco.

"Erza I have a plan," Zeke said with a smirk.

"What is it?" Erza asked curiously.

"Once he arrives at our table, let's kiss. Maybe that'll stop him from trying to flirt with you," he grinned mischievously.

Erza smirked. "That sounds like a good idea."

Marco arrived at their table, and right on cue, Zeke cupped Erza's face and kissed her gently. After five seconds, they broke the kiss and Zeke smirked to himself.

"Oh, Marco, you're already here," Erza said, acting innocently.

"Er, uh, y-yes," the waiter stuttered. "What will be your orders?"

"I'll have carbonara and three slices of cheese pizza," Zeke said casually.

"I'll have spaghetti with meatballs and a slice of strawberry cake," Erza added.

"Okay. I'll be back shortly with your orders," Marco said and walked away without any more attempts to flirt with Erza.

"It looks like it worked," Zeke grinned. Erza chuckled, "And what would you have done if he still tried to flirt with me?" Zeke put on a poker face and said, "I'd have punched him across the room." Erza laughed, thinking her boyfriend was cute when he got jealous. Zeke laughed along with her.

After twenty minutes, Marco arrived with their order. "Here are your orders, ma'am, sir," he said politely.

"Thank you," the couple said at the same time. Marco bowed and left the two to eat.

The two mages took their time eating and enjoyed their meal.

"So, what do you want to do after this?" Zeke asked his girlfriend while eating his pizza.

Erza had begun eating her cake and suggested, "We could go for a swim in the ocean."

"Sure, that's fine with me," Zeke answered with a smile.

They finished eating and called back Marco to pay for their order. "It will be 10,000 Jewel, sir," the waiter said. Zeke pulled out his wallet and the requip mage tried to convince her boyfriend that they will split the bill. The lightning mage rejected the offer fervently, saying, "It's only right for the guy to pay when he has a date with his girlfriend." The requip mage just smiled at his remark, then he handed the money to the waiter. "Thank you for eating here, ma'am and sir. Please feel free to come back anytime," Marco bowed. The couple voiced their thanks and headed back to the hotel. On the way to their room, a man and a woman passed by them and the two mages heard the conversation.

"I heard that there's going to be a ball later tonight here at the hotel," the man said.

"Oh, is that so? Is everyone staying in the hotel invited?" The woman asked.

"Yeah. I heard that they do this every year during this time."

"Maybe it'll be fun. Let's join!"

The voices of the two people faded into the distance and an idea popped into Erza's head.

"Did you hear the conversation of those two?" She asked her boyfriend.

"Oh, yeah. Why, do you want to go?" He asked her in reply.

"Yes, we don't have any plans for tonight yet, anyway."

"There's just one tiny problem, though. I didn't bring something to wear for this kind of event."

"Maybe there's a store nearby that sells suits here. Then we could go and buy you one before we go get changed."

"Sounds like a good idea. Let's ask the lady in the lobby."

They headed to the lobby and found the lady that gave them the key to their room earlier. The lady saw them approaching, then she smiled sweetly and asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Zeke answered, "Yes, I heard that there's going to be a ball tonight here at the hotel, and we were wondering if there's a store nearby that sells formal clothes for men?"

"Ah, yes. We have our own store here inside the hotel. From here, you just walk straight and turn left. You can see the store immediately," the lady said as she pointed out the directions.

"Thank you for your help," Erza said politely.

"You're welcome," the lady said as she smiled.

They headed towards the direction that the lady pointed and immediately saw the store that she mentioned. They went in and saw different kinds of formal wear for men. "What do you think I should wear?" Zeke asked Erza. She looked at him and thought of a suggestion. She suggested, "Why don't you wear a black suit? Since you always wear something black and I think it suits you." He smiled and said, "Thanks for the suggestion."

He grabbed a white polo, a yellow necktie, a pair of black leather shoes and the black suit. He went into the changing room and changed into his newly picked clothes. He went out and asked his girlfriend, "How does it look?" She smiled widely, grabbed him by the necktie and pulled him closer. "You look absolutely handsome," she purred then kissed him. "Heh, heh," he chuckled throatily as they pulled apart. "Now, go change back so we can pay for your suit," she said as she slapped his chest lightly. He had a huge grin on his face as he changed back into his normal clothes.

They had his clothes and shoes wrapped neatly as they paid for them. "That will be 30,000 Jewel, sir," the cashier said. Zeke pulled out his wallet and paid for the clothes. "Thank you for shopping here," the saleslady said as she bowed. The couple smiled back and headed back to their room to get changed.

Zeke wore a pair of black swimming trunks with a yellow lightning design on the right half while Erza requipped into her black bikini. The requip mage happened to land her eyes on the half-naked body of her boyfriend, and she could clearly see his scars. She didn't know why, but she found that the scars had made his body more appealing. He has a well-toned body and strong muscles and abs. She blushed and turned her eyes away.

Zeke grabbed towels, an umbrella, and sunblock lotion for Erza. He cast his gaze on his girlfriend and saw that she looked absolutely gorgeous in her swimwear. Sure, she always looked gorgeous to him, but this was a different case. Her beautiful scarlet hair flowed down past her waist, and he saw her beautiful body. He pushed those thoughts away from him, and asked, "You ready to go?" Erza turned to face him and smiled, "Yes, I'm ready." She looped her arm around his, and she felt his firm, warm skin, while he felt her bare, soft skin. He loved the feel of her skin against his; it felt so natural. "Let's go," he said and smiled softly at her.

They exited the hotel and headed towards the ocean, and Erza could see a lot of girls gawking at Zeke with heart-shaped eyes, which made her grip him tighter and pull him closer to her. Zeke also noticed a lot of guys staring at Erza. He even noticed that some were already having nosebleeds, so he shot glares at each of them.

I won't allow anybody to lay a single finger on her. He thought with determination.

If anybody tries to come near him or flirt with him, I will kill them. She thought.

They found an empty spot and Zeke laid down the towels and put up the umbrella. "Here's the sunblock," he said as he tossed the bottle towards Erza and she caught it. She smiled. "Thank you, Zeke." Then she began putting on sunblock on her body. She couldn't reach her back, so she asked Zeke for help. "Zeke, can you help me put this on my back?"

He smiled. "Sure." She lay face down on the towel and unlocked her bikini bra and he began putting on the lotion on her back. She felt his strong hands against her back, and she blushed. "There, it's done," she heard him say. "Thank you," she said as she smiled sweetly then strapped back her bra. She could feel the girls' jealous stares at her and she smirked.

He helped her up and they began trekking towards the ocean. Again, Zeke could see the perverted stares the men were giving his girlfriend, so he pulled her close and kissed her passionately. Erza could again feel the jealous stares of the girls around her, so she wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. They pulled apart and panted, gasping for air. "That'll show them that you're my girlfriend," Zeke muttered. Erza smiled, thinking once again how cute her boyfriend was when he got jealous. "And that'll teach the girls not to mess around with my boyfriend," she remarked. Zeke laughed, "Now, let's go for a swim."

The couple had fun swimming and splashing each other with water in the ocean. After a few hours of having fun in the ocean, they noticed that the sky was getting dark so they decided to stop and get ready for the ball. They dried themselves up with the towels they brought and went back into their room. "Is it alright if I shower first?" Erza asked her boyfriend. Zeke nodded and said, "Sure, go right ahead." Zeke sat down on the couch as he waited for Erza to finish her shower. After nearly thirty minutes, Erza appeared outside of the bathroom wrapped in a towel and was beginning to dry her hair. "Your turn," she said as she smiled at Zeke. He said nothing and gawked at her. She looked at him in concern, and asked, "Are you okay, Zeke?" Finally, he snapped out of it and responded, "Yeah, I'm fine." Then he added, "I'm gonna go shower now." Erza nodded and sat down on the bed.

She finished drying her hair off and put on a pair of silver earrings shaped like stars. Then, she requipped into a sleeveless black dress with a slit that showed her left leg. She tied her hair in a bun and let a few strands of her beautiful scarlet hair fall along the sides of her face. She looked in a mirror and smiled to herself. "Perfect…" She murmured.

Just as she finished preparing, Zeke came out of the shower. He saw his girlfriend in front of the mirror and saw how she looked so perfectly beautiful. He could do nothing but stare at her, completely speechless. Erza turned around and saw her boyfriend staring at her. "Cat got your tongue?" She teased. "You look absolutely perfect," he said in a voice barely above a whisper. She blushed and said, "Thank you." Then she pointed out to his body and said sternly, "Now, go get changed or we'll be late." He smiled sheepishly and changed into his suit. "You look absolutely perfect, as well," she said as she smiled. He kissed her deeply and whispered, "Thank you," into her ear. She giggled, which was highly unusual of her and it was his first time hearing her giggle. "Did you just giggle, Erza?" He asked while raising his eyebrows playfully. Cute. He thought. She answered his question with a glare and he gulped. "S-sorry," he said fearfully. She nodded and said, "You're forgiven." He sweat dropped and offered his arm out to her. She took it and they walked towards the lobby of the hotel.

A/N: And there's the end of Chapter 10! I added parts in this chapter that made Zeke jealous since it's always Erza who has been feeling jealous in the previous chapter. Hehehe. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and see you guys in the next one!
