Chapter10

The blonde knocked the door as it was open wide but just knocked to get her friend's attention. Lucy was wearing a long purple dress and curling her hair into a beautiful bun. She smiled when her friend moved her head to look at Lucy who suddenly came. She let out a nervous smile and then returned her head back to the mirror. Lucy walked to where the redhead sat and smiled. "Erza, you look gorgeous!" she broke the silence as she hugged her friend from the back. "Do your best, Erzaaaa~!" Lucy rubbed her shoulders and rested her chin on the redhead's shoulder lessening her worries. Erza stared a little at the ground and then looked at the mirror and smiled warmly.

"Yeah"

Lucy stood up raising a thump to Erza and then she waved her hand to Erza and left the room to Erza and went back to her friends. Today was Natsu's and Erza's biggest day. It was their wedding and Erza was super nervous and afraid so much. She looked really gorgeous. She was wearing a long bride dress. It was white of course but not only any white. It was pure white that would make anyone fall in love of how dazzling it was. Erza looked at herself in the mirror and forced a smile. Today she will Natsu's bride and will not be single anymore. She won't cry at night because of being alone. She won't have hardships in looking at couples who hold each others' hands. She won't feel loss or being lost. She won't miss him anymore, she won't miss Jellal anymore. She won't call his name. She won't dream of him. She won't imagine their life together anymore. That's right, she always wished of him as her husband but not everything you wish could come true. She will have a man who will protect her from everything. She is not sad that she is gonna marry. She is happy to be with Natsu. She is happy that he asked her to marry him. She is happy that they will build their life together. They might even be parents of a child.

Erza's face exploded red as she felt embarrassed imagining having a child from her dear friend and husband. Erza's face turned around when she suddenly heard another knock from outside. She looked at the door to see Natsu. He was blushing of seeing her wearing the wedding dress and was still standing at the door unable to enter. Erza let out a soft smile with a pink blush curled on her cheeks as she saw him wearing the wedding suit. You can't imagine how handsome he was. She stood up on her foot as she kept staring at him waiting him to advance to her. Natsu let go of the door and stepped to the front and kept staring at her with a blush speechless. Erza was silent sharing the same look. She looked down at the wedding dress and then raised her face to look at him.

"What… do you think?" she asked with a blush on her cheeks.

"Y-You l-look… gorgeous!"

She laughed and then he let out a laugh. Both of them stared at each others' eyes unable to speak words. Then, Natsu remembered something made him feel uneasy.

Flashback

"Oi, flame-brain! Stop acting like a little child!"

"No, I don't want to… Erza is gonna reject me anyway" Natsu said as he started to take apart the buttons around his neck preventing him to breath. He then rested his back at the wall and his sweat started to drop from his face. Gray felt so uneasy seeing his friend/rival like wreck. He was afraid that Erza would say no in the last moment. It was his right to be afraid but, where did he get that idea from? She would never take her words back because she is Erza. When she accepted his propose, she was damn serious. So why does he feel like this even he knows her better than anyone does. Gray sighed and stood heading to where the pink haired salamander stood. He raised his hand to the air and then smacked him on the head.

"Ouch!" Natsu fell down to the ground and then raised his hand to rub his head to ease the pain. He raised his head to look at the black haired ice mage. He sent him a glare and then stood up pushing Gray from his place to the back. "You want to fight; I'm not in the mood for that!"

"Yeah, you aren't in the mood because you are going to marry." Gray said walking away from him. "Ah, I can't believe that you will be controlled by Erza after all." Gray let out a laughletting Natsu's rage got higher.

"What do you mean by that, bastard?!"

"Nothing, just… you are going to marry Erza. Imagine that you will do whatever she wants not what you want."

"Erza is not like that, idiot!" Nastsu spoke glaring at the ice mage who was trying to tease him. "And I'm not like that too!" he then walked heading to the door and passing out of it. And behind him Gray was smirking knowing that his plan had successes with Natsu because when something fails to success with others, it successes with Natsu. He is an opposite person.

End of flashback

"Y-You really mean it?" Erza said nervously looking at her clothes and looking at her reflection in the mirror checking her makeup. "I feel like I'm horrible!" Natsu stared at her while she was looking at herself in the mirror and then smiled softly and that caught Erza's attention. She looked at him while he was still smiling and that made feel strange. "What are you laughing at, idiot?" he grinned widely and then sat squatting and looking inside her eyes. He grabbed her hands touching them softly and still looking into her eyes.

"When I propose to you, I did that when you were wearing normal clothes. I didn't expect that much of you but, you answered with yes." He said with a gleam in his eyes. "That time I wished to see you with the most charming look you have." He smiled and a blush darkened on her cheeks.

"Natsu…"

"Today, I'm so happy to see the most beautiful woman ever." He continued. "Thank you for letting me sees you like that Erza."

Natsu grabbed the back of her head and brought her head nearer and then he placed a kiss on her forehead.
