Part 2: Chapter 9: True Confession.

Since they had been back in the guild Erza was kind of avoiding Naruto. She would go on job requests with Natsu's group than talk to Naruto. He even offered a joint trip on an S class but she turned him down. He was kind of hurt by this. But he knew that chasing after her even more like a love sick man would only chase her even further away.

He explained the whole story to his grandfather. Even about him being able to use magic. But Makarov was worried. Laxus was affected by the lacrima that was implanted inside of him. He didn't want his other grandson to seal the same fate. Naruto was currently in the bar inside the guild. He was talking to Mira about what had happened with Erza, looking for advice.

"She's most likely mad at you."

"What makes you say that?"

"Well for starters you nearly died in front of her and your last words were 'I love you.' Yeah that's real romantic!" Mira tried to put as much sarcasm into the last part.

"Well.. I've.. Never really felt this way before. I almost don't know what to say when we're alone y'know." Naruto felt really embarrassed to say this in front of someone. Luckily he was speaking to Mira. Sometimes she could be a bit of a gossip but she also knew how to keep secrets when she needed to.

"You really do love her don't you huh?" Naruto didn't answered back. He just continue'd to stare into the glass of cider in front of him. "So... You decided on what magic your using?"

"I'm going to use it along with my chakra. I was thinking of two thing in particular. Re-quip for my kunai and other weapons. That way I don't have to worry about carrying all my gear around. And the other was Wind magic."

"Wind magic? Why that?"

"Well since Jiji uses it I think he'd help on that front plus if I feel my strongest melee attacks are wind based so why not. Beside I prefer hand to hand fighting. I only use fire attacks when I'm with Natsu or I haven't marked them." Mira found it hard not to agree with his point.

"Why not ask Natsu?"

"Cause he's a dragon slayer. I'm not looking to kill dragons. I'm just looking to improve what I have."

"What about you rasengan? Or flying raijin?"

"I don't know to be honest. I can separate my chakra and magic for the raijin but not the rasengan." Mira remembered Naruto showing them the glowing gold rasengan he made when he told everyone he could use magic. "I'm trying to add it to the rasengan."

"But I thought the rasengan was complete?"

"It is but since I can't separate magic and chakra I might as well try it." Naruto shrugged in his response to Mira. Little did he know that Erza's group had just arrived back from there job request at a restaurant. When he called for Naruto he couldn't believe his eyes. There was Erza standing in front of him in nothing but a skimpy orange waitress outfit.

"Naruto this is for you." Erza handed Naruto a letter but his eye were gazed in the pair in front of him. "I swear if it was anyone else he'd be dead by now. NARUTO!" Erza mumbled the first part to herself so no one could hear and roared the second.

"Yes!" Naruto rose to attention. See the letter in Erza's hand she gave it to him. When Naruto opened the letter he seen Yajima appeared in a projection from the letter. Before he speaks he cleared his throat.

"NARUTO YOU IDIOT!" Yajima roared at Naruto who let go of the letter. He caught it again before Yajima continue'd. "If it wasn't for the fact you worked under me for four year or that your makky's grandson I wouldn't bother messaging you like this but. What the hell have you been doing?! I want you to talk to me in private. Most likely you've been stupid enough to open this letter around other people. In that case I've embarrassed you enough. Now hop to it. I'm not getting any younger!" Naruto dropped what he was doing and what to his house as fast as he could to find his communication lacrima once he found it. He bought it a while ago but he was never actually ever able to use it. It bought it so people would be able to contact him. Not the other way around. Soon he found Yajima on the other end. "So you've got my message then."

"Hey Yajima what's up?" Naruto was nervous.

"What have you done with Erza?" Naruto didn't know what to say. "She been here three times working in my restaurant and each time she's gotten more depressed. Now I know you care about her. I've known for a while. That's why I asked you to go bring her the magic council several times in the past. Now tell me what's happened. I'm worried about my number one waitress!"

Naruto sighed he had no choice. He told Yajima everything. He started off with Akane, then the Tower, the Etherion, the fight with Jellal, the escape and the aftermath. Yajima said nothing and took all the information in. "Well Naruto I don't really know what to say. Women are confusing creatures... Honestly I don't know how to help you. If I could I probably wouldn't cause I'd be too busy enjoying myself hehehe." Naruto sweat dropped as he seen Yajima's perverted side. "I can only say that you have to talk to her Naruto. But don't push to hard. and come visit some time." Yajima then ended the call with Naruto. taking several minutes to think about he was was going to do he had made up his mind. He was going to talk to Erza.

Naruto made his way back to the guild when ever he opened the door everyone turned to face him. Their was silence in the guild hall. It was creepy, almost unnatural for this to happen. Naruto made his way towards Mira standing at behind the bar.

"Hey Mira do you know where Erza is at the moment?"

"She's in Fairy Hills at the moment." Mira answered with her normal smile. Naruto knew he couldn't get into Fairy Hills. It was women only. He thought about using his transformation jutsu but then again if he was caught the chances of Erza ever talking to him again would be out the window for good.

"Is there any way I could talk to her?" Mira thought about this for a while but was cut off before she could answer.

"I'll help you lover-boy."

"What's up with the new nickname Cana?" Naruto knew Cana was messing with him. She was one of his oldest friends and former team mate.

"Relax I'm only joking. Come on I'll get her." Naruto followed Cana to Fairy Hills just outside of Magnolia. Cana told him to wait by the giant tree by the back. Naruto sat under the tree and waited. He stared up into the sky. The sun was slowly setting in the horizon. Erza then appeared.

"Erza... I need to talk to you about what happened in the Tower."

"Before you begin Naruto if your going to apologize I forgive you."

"No... It's not that. It's about what I said." Naruto was nervous. Erza noticed this but still didn't know what to expect. "I meant what I said Erza... I love you. I know it seems crazy that I'm saying this but I really do mean it. I'm not really used to saying things like this y'know. Truth is I've never really felt this way before. Now I know you've been mad at me since I've said it and I don't know when I've started to feel this way but." Naruto didn't get to finish as Erza hugged him.

"You're an idiot Naruto." Erza spoke into Naruto's shoulder. "Truth is. I feel the same way. I was just jealous that you confessed first when I wanted to as well."

"Erza. Can you be my girlfriend?" Erza was shocked when Naruto asked. She slowly started to cry as she still held onto Naruto.

"Of course you idiot." Erza and Naruto stared into each other's eyes as they kissed as the sun set from the crimson sky. Little did they know that Cana, Levy and Juvia were sitting watching the whole thing unfold from lobby window.

"It's so romantic. If only that were Juvia and lord Gray!" Juvia started off wondering into her day dreams again.

"It's about time those two hooked up!" Cana sighed with relief as she sat down on the couch.

"Didn't you once kiss Naruto?" Levy pointed out to Cana.

"Yeah but That was different. and besides you've been closer to him for longer than Erza. Why did you make a move on him?"

"Naruto kind of treats me like a little sister. and to be honest I kind of like that."

"Well Who do you think will be the next two love birds?"

"Hmm... ooh I got one..." Levy then started to gossip with Cana other who they thought would match up together.

And Cut. Well its now fully confirmed ladies and gents NaruErza! Now I know this chapter is short and a bit chatty compared to what I normally write but its to set up the next few arcs. Anyway here is this chapter's Q&A!

1) Will Naruto get back to the hidden leaf? No Naruto won't be going back to the hidden leaf. reason is he was brought to Fiore by Kakashi and Obito. He would have no clue how to return back.

2) Will Naruto be getting dragon slaying magic? No. He also won't be getting gold slayer or devil slayer either. he doesn't need it for what i have in mind lol

3) Why make Naruto like Gajeel singing? Honestly I like jazz music. There's a big jazz/blues festival that goes on every year in the city I live and I think it's class. plus they always writer are looking to put a bit of themselves into their work so Naruto sense of music is like my own lol.

4) Team Light or Team L? Oh Easy. Team L! How could you not love L! Like I know Light was the main character but come on. Once L died the series sniffed a bit. Plus even though he died he still actually won!

That's all for this chapter folks. I've hoped you've all enjoyed it. Till next time!
