Chapter 7
I spent the rest of my day asking people if they had seen Erza, no one had. I was starting to get really worried and went back to my room. Maybe she went into town or something. When I walked into the room there she was sitting on her bed with a bottle of beer in her hand. I looked over at the waist basket next to her, it was full of empty beers and over flowing. "hi I've been looking for you all day. How are you doing?" I slowly walked to her.
"I'm fine. Did you know … that the bar … is unlimited?" she said this slightly swaying back and forth with hiccupping at random times.
"ok I think its time for you to be done." I reached out and grabbed the bottle out of her hand. I placed it down on her desk also littered with empty bottles.
"you know he took the job before even talking to me about it. That fucker, I hate him so much." She started to get a little mad. I sat down next to her on the bed and got a face full of hair. Erza had laid her head down on me and started crying. "I hate him so much. Lucy?" she looked up at me with tears slowly falling down her check.
"yes Erza?" it hurt to see her like this and I had only known her for about a month and it felt like I have now her for years.
"do you love me?" my heart skipped a beat, all I wanted to do was say yes I love you with all my heart and if you weren't with Jellal I would ask you out. But before I could even start to say it Erza started talking again. "I mean like friends or even sisters?" I had just gotten friend zoned.
"Erza of course I love you like sisters. You're the older sister I never had." I smiled down at her happy I at least got to say I love you to her.
"good because I love you as well." Erza smiled back at me, her eye lids slowly closed. She was asleep in my lap. My heart was bounding so fast and loud I thought the sound might wake her up. I stared at her for about ten minutes, she looked so cute and peaceful in her slumber. Gently I lifted Erza off of me and laid her down in the bed. I put a blanket over her then leaned down and kissed her forehead. Then headed to bed myself.
