Hey! This is an Erza X Jellal; it is more dramatic than the last one. And I guess in one way or another has a touch of tragedy. This I think isn't really a one shot, it's more of a situation regarding two characters. And they don't even really verbally speak to each other. But, whatever. SHF. Hope whoever's reading this enjoys.

ALSO! It's been requested I do Gray and Cana. NOW: I rarely take requests, BUT I actually DO have a Gray X Cana Oneshot pre-written as chapter seven. So, you can expect that to be posted soon. :D

She opened the letter, Erza's jaw dropped and her hand quivered as she looked at the letter. She felt her eyes well up with tears, but none would reach the surface. She whispered to herself "J- Jellal."

Dear Erza,

It's been over a year since I've last seen you. I guess in some way or another, it's just what I deserve. I don't deserve you.

After the pain I've caused you and your friends at Fairy Tail I can't ask for your forgiveness. I can't and I won't, because as I already stated, I don't deserve you. But I will ask of you one favor. Simply, to read this note if you are interested enough.

There are many things I didn't get to tell you when I should have.

You're always the only thing on my mind. You're everything I think about. But I cannot, unfortunately only remember your smile. I remember your tears, your pain, your losses. And it almost kills me every day to remember I am the reason for so many of those terrible things.

Writing this letter to you was an act of selfishness in some way or another but I still had to have you know.

I love you, Erza Scarlet. This is my cowardly confession, I love you. And I can't be with you. Because I know, that would only cause you harm.

When I did not return your kiss, it was not of anger. It was of guilt.

Hopefully now, you are on a path much astray from mine. Maybe our paths may cross and it will be for the better. But for the better, I utterly doubt. So I'll try to keep path away.

But that does not change matters, Erza. I love you.

And I probably always will.

Your guilty acquaintance,

Jellal.
