A/N: So um. Happy Thanksgiving, guys! I hope you have a great holiday and you guys definitely deserve it. I'm really thankful for all my readers and reviewers c:

I'm gonna go camping tomorrow so yup. And I've been having a shitty day lol. I was like 3 points away from making the math team (like the mathlete I am) and then I lost my phone so I'm in this pissed off yet disappointedly depressed mood. Er...yup. Enjoy.

"No, Erza...that's not what I meant..."

Jellal chased after her as she ran through the upper school courtyards. Man, could Erza Scarlet run fast. 10 bucks that she could run faster than the track team's ace. Wait no. This wasn't the time, FOCUS JELLAL, FOCUS. But his little mental slip led to him running into a bunch of rose bushes.

"Mmphgasdfghjklasd...!"

The bluehead stumbled into the sharp bushes, barely escaping the wrath of the tiny little pricks. Dammit! He had holes everywhere on his pants. That certainly wasn't attractive. For a few seconds the student council president stood there internally debating whether he should continue looking for her, or get a new pair of pants before getting expelled for remote public nudity.

He chose the later, of course, because if he got expelled, he'd never be able to see Erza again. Cutie.

Jellal swiftly plucked a rose from the stabbers of his pants and began speed walking to the dormitories. Not running, speed walking. He was the student council president for god's sake! He had an image to retain. A reputation to uphold. Speed walking, cool. Running, lame. But then again, minuscule holes in your pants...ultra lame, as Levy would say.

So he decided to be a smart cookie and risked being the lame dude who was running like a maniac, instead of the lame dude that had holes in his pants. Wise decision, Mr. Fernandez, must've taken years of experience to figure that one out.

Meanwhile, our friend Laxus, the blondie, stood there dumbfounded, still, like the true blond he was. "Er...what just happened...?"

On the other hand, Erza had already made it to the student council room, more so pissed than depressed. She harshly pushed open the double doors and stormed inside, each step practically starting a miniature earthquake.

Levy rushed to her side, already knowing what probably happened. You see, she actually made a chart of the various times and reasons where Erza Scarlet, the ever so mighty 'Scarlet Princess', never phased by anything, stormed into the council room. Here's how it went:

15% B on a Calc test (Surprisingly, the quick witted girl did in fact get B's on math tests. Tsk, tsk.)

20% Hibiki was hitting on her with the cheesiest of the cheesiest pickup lines.

65% JELLAL. (Oh yes, he had his own category that was the cause of half of the breakings of various objects. i.e., tables, stairways, heads...tables and stairways and heads simultaneously.)

"Awwww, Erza-chan, what did Jellal do this time?"

"He...that little weasel (weasel?) thinks that you have to do whatever you need to do to get what you want! He thinks it's right to be nice to someone with an ulterior motive in order to get what you want!"

"...Well, yeah. Erza, that's kinda how life works."

"I BET HE'S DOING 'THIS AND THAT'** WITH ULTEAR!"

Lucy giggled and sighed, realizing the real reason behind the redhead's stress.

"It's 'cause you like Jellal, isn't it, Erzaaa?"

"...what."

"Don't deny it ;)"

"Did you just say semicolon parentheses?"

"Uh...no...greater than period greater than...awks...(. this face lol)"

"Lucy..."

"What?"

"You've been texting Natsu too much..."

"Uh...no I haven't...Natsu...less than three underscore less than three (3_3)

"Just shutup."

"Hey, don't hate me 'cause I'm blond."

"Whatever."

"Fine, ask Miss Bookworm over there, I'm right, right, Levy?"

"Sorry blondie, I don't respond to that."

"Levy..."

"Yes, Lucy?"

"JUST TELL HER SHE'S IN LOVE WITH JELLAL DAMMIT."

"Erza. YOU ARE IN LOVE WITH JELLAL, DAMMIT."

"Guys!"

"Girls."

"Ugh. Whatever. I'm leaving."

"WAIT NO! WE NEED SOME PAPERS TO BE FI-" and the door shut as the 'Scarlet Princess' left the room.

"This is your fault."

"Shutup, blondie."

...

"Er...Mr. Fernandez?"

"Yes, sir?"

"Wha...why...how...happened?"

"Well you see, I was talking to Laxus-"

"Oh boy."

"And Erza-"

"I get it. You need new pants right?"

"Well, obviously."

"Alright, that'll be 45 jewels."

"Kay, 45- WAIT WHAT?"

"Yes. F-o-u-r-t-y-f-i-v-e. What, does Levy do ALL the math for you student councilers?"

"I...I don't have that much money."

"Oh, so sad. Would you like a cookie, and some play doh?"

"Don't give me attitude. I'm Jellal freaking Fernandez, I can lower your pay."

"Oooh, I'm supposed to be scared of a 5 foot bluehaired man who's broke?"

"WHAT. EVER. And by the way, I'm 6 feet and just about the sexiest man you'll ever meet."

And right as he was about to storm out dramatically, he realized. Holes in pants. Damn. What was he to do? He couldn't go out like this! Hmm...who to call, who to call. Well, who has money?

Erza...nah, she was pissed.

Levy...nah, she would charge 200% interest

Lucy...nah, she had no money.

Natsu...nah, he'd give all his money to Lucy.

Gray...hah, where would he keep it?

asdfghjkl out of options.

Hm...Well if he called Erza over it'd be a GREAT conversation starter. Could result in a few laughs...or a few more holes. Eh, what the heck, why not. Jellal flipped out his cell and scrolled down his contacts (A/N:I wish I had my phone TwT) and texted her.

ERZA! URGENT NEED FOR HELP. COME TO THE UPPER SCHOOL OFFICE ASAP!

...

Scarlet felt her phone vibrating (A/N:heh, my phone's on vibrate right now. in the hands of some stranger. gah) and read his message. She smiled lightly before stopping herself. No, Erza, don't be happy he texted. He's bothering you.

She ended up in the upper school office anyways, muttering to herself, "freaking' Jellal and his urgent needs for help." But alas, her trip was not for nothing. The instant she opened the doors, Jellal stood up, and his hole-y mishap was now apparent. Extremely apparent. Perhaps, transparent. Oh Erza, and her clever mental puns.

"Pfft...Dude, what...ahaha...what happened to you?"

He relaxed ever so slightly when hearing her sweet laugh and chuckled along.

"You see, while I was chasing after you, I fell into a bunch of rose bushes...AHAHAHAHA FUNNY STORY, RIGHT?"

"Hahaha, yeah-...WAIT WHAT? When you were chasing after me?"

"Mhmm."

"Oh...So this is my fault...Jellal, I'm so sorry."

"Nah, it's alright. My precious face that is adored by you has not been defaced."

"Ha, yet."

"Buttt, what you should do to make up for it."

"Yeah sure, what? I'll buy you lunch or something."

"No. I need you to buy me pants..."

"...I what."

"...or something."

"Sure."

"Deal?"

"Sure."

"Not mad at me?"

"Sure."

"Friends?"

"Sure."

"Go out with me?"

"Yeah, yeah, I said sure alrea- WAIT.WHAT?"

"Victory!"

And cute little Jellal fist pumped while Erza's face turned as red as her hair.

A/N: Lol this is pretty cliche but whatevs, I'm phoneless and not on America's second best math team. boohoo. Happy Thanksgiving, review please c:
