I smacked my alarm clock off, I mumbled about never getting enough sleep and got out of my comfy bed. I had a really hard time getting to sleep last night, an image of that handsome blue haired man kept appearing in my mind every time I closed my eyes.
I sighed and got ready for work by getting on a pair of black jeans, and a pink t-shirt. I tied my scarlet hair into a high pony tail, and brushed my teeth and washed my face. I had a lot of baking to do this morning, so I decided to run by McDonalds for breakfast.
Once I got my food, I started eating my breakfast burrito in the car, occasionally taking a sip out of my coffee, which might I say wasn't as good as Mira's. I arrived to a building with big scarlet letters spelling out 'Scarlet's Treats' I smiled to myself, and unlocked the door. I got started right away on making red velvet and lemon velvet cupcakes. Since it was late July, I decided to have a summer themed cupcake.
Meredy walked in and yelled out 'ERZ! I'M HERE!"
I greeted Meredy, and asked her if she could get started on the fondant decorations for the cupcakes. My good friend Lucy came in next.
"Hey Erza! Sorry I wasn't here yesterday, I wasn't feeling too great and Natsu insisted that I stayed home!" Lucy whined
Natsu is Lucy's boyfriend, they've dated for 11 months and their 1 year anniversery was coming up soon.
"Don't worry about it, can you get started on some shortbread cookies?" I asked her
"Of course! I can also start on some lemon cookies as well" Lucy stated and got to work after washing her hands.
My other employees came in, Milliana, one of my child friends came in a little late.
"Sorry Er-chan!" she apologized.
I shook it off, and asked her to make sure the tables were cleaned.
Soon I went to the front door and turned the closed sign so it read "Open"
Customers came in one by one, everyone ordered their desired treat, and sat at tables, working or chatting with friends. At around 1, I decided to take my lunch break.
"Do you guys want anything from Wendy's? I asked Lucy, Meredy and Milliana.
They nodded their heads, and I headed out the door, already knowing their orders. When I pulled up to Wendy's, I parked my car and went inside. I got in line behind a man with blue hair, I slightly chuckled, "Why is blue hair so popular now?" I accidentally thought out loud.
The man with blue hair turned around, I gasped in shock. It was the guy from yesterday! The one who ordered the last cupcake! I flushed with embarrassment.
"S-sorry did I offend you?" I apologized while bowing
"Oh no! I just thought I recognized your voice. You're the one who works on Scarlet's Treats right?" he asked.
I quickly smiled and nodded.
"That was one of the best cupcakes I've every had." He told me with a smile.
I slightly blushed, and thanked him.
We started talking, after I ordered my food, I found out his name is Jellal, and that he is the CEO of Fiore Enterprise. When he told me, I gasped in shock, the well known Jellal Fernandez complimented me on my cupcake! I squealed inside my brain. Once I got my food, I bid my farewell to him.
"Oh wait! Here you go Erza." He said while giving me his business card. I thanked him and left.
Once I got in my car, I had a slight fan girl moment. I then started driving back to my bakery, once I arrived I got out of my car, and got the food and brought it inside.
"What took you so long Erza!" Lucy complained. She quickly dove into her food, a spicy chicken salad. She is really into spicy food, due to her boyfriend being obsessed with spicy foods.
"Sorry I... ran into somebody" I replied while blushing slightly.
"Oooooh has Erz found a lover?" Meredy smirked while coming to get her food
"W-w-what! N-o!" I stammered while blushing furiously.
"Whatever you say Erz" Meredy said with her eyebrow raised.
I went to put Milliana's food in the refrigerator since her lunch break hadn't started yet. I worked hard for the rest of the day, delivering orders too and fro. Until finally it was closing time. I locked up all the doors, and put away all the food. I started working the the wedding cake order I had. I made the cake part, and then put it in the oven. While it was baking, I cleaned up.
Right when I took the cake out and covered it, I heard a knock on the door. I silently peeked my head out to see who. And much to my surprise, I saw Jellal. I quickly opened the door and let him in.
I smirked, while I asked him "Are you back for another red velvet?"
"You know it!" he replied with a friendly grin.
I got his red velvet, and he wolfed it down within the minute.
"Ahh, that was so good" he praised to me.
I blushed slightly and nodded my head.
He went to his suits pocket to get his wallet, I quickly stopped him and told him it was on the house, he hesitantly put his wallet back. He got up, and thanked me. I got up to leave too, deciding I had finished baking for the day. We both left together, while I locked the door behind me.
"Well, goodnight Jellal!" I smiled towards him
"Night Erza" He smiled back with his dashing grin
I got into my car, and drove home, as soon as I got home, I sprawled out onto my bed, completely forgetting to change and eat dinner. I fell asleep quickly with a smile on my face.
