A week after Jellal first came to Fairy Tail High and he had successfully avoided Erza and her wrath. He was sure that she would still be angry at him, just like he was still angry at Siegrain. He also hadn't talked to Siegrain or Mystogan for a week, which was fine with him.
Jellal walked up to his locker and opened it, quickly changing out his books for his next class, history. The history book was like a rock, and his folder was already thick with notes he needed for the midterm, since he had missed a whole quarter of information. Jellal swung his locker shut, only to be scared out of his wits by Erza Scarlet, who was standing behind his open locker door.
"AH!" Jellal screamed, dropping his history book on his foot, and boom echoed through the loud hallway. "OW!"
"Oh, sorry!" Erza quickly apologized, picking up the history book and handing it back to Jellal. "I didn't mean to scare you."
"Its fine," Jellal lied, biting down the pain, and hoping that his foot wasn't fractured in any way.
"Is your foot okay?" Erza asked.
"I'll walk it off," Jellal lied again. He had no idea what to say after that, and neither did Erza because that was obviously not the entrance she wanted to make, which resulted in an awkward silence. Jellal decided to break it by saying something even more awkward, "So, uhm, hi."
"Hello," Erza replied. "So, I heard that you transfered here on Monday."
"Yeah, uh, Siegrain got me kicked out of Tower of Heaven," Jellal replied.
"I guessed," Erza replied, knowing Siegrain's tendencies well.
"Look, I'm sorry that I got you kicked out of Tower of Heaven," Jellal apologized. "Like, really, really sorry."
"It's okay," Erza replied. "I made many new friends at Fairy Tail Middle School, so it's fine. If anything, I like Fairy Tail better than Tower of Heaven. More freedom."
"Yeah, it was kinda like a prison at Tower of Heaven," Jellal agreed.
"Yes," Erza agreed. "So do you enjoy Fairy Tail High?"
"Yep, like you said, more freedom," Jellal replied. "Also, uhm, why were you hiding, behind my locker?"
"Well, I thought that you were avoiding me," Erza replied.
"I thought that you would still be angry at me," Jellal countered.
"No, no," Erza quickly replied. "I couldn't be angry at you."
They both became red. That sounded like something out of a romcom.
They were both then literally saved by the bell. The 2-minute bell rang and they both had to get to their classes.
"Well, uhm, I'd better go," Jellal managed to get out.
"Alright," Erza replied. "Me too. But we should hang out sometimes. Just like old times."
"Uh-uh-alright," Jellal stuttered. "Uh, bye."
"Bye," Erza replied and they went their separate ways, both red as tomatoes.
Okay so, Public Service Announcement.
I feel that I should give everyone the low down about what's going to go on for the rest of this fic.
So, in two days I go back to school. Right after Labor Day to be exact. I already know I'm going to have a big test the first week about the 200 words I learned over the summer for my AP History Class and I have three other advanced classes. Now you're worried about the progression of this fic. But I have to tell you my friends, there's no need to worry.
Because I'm done.
Now, I'm not going to upload it all at once. Because that would be a mess. I still have to go over the rest of them and decide whether I'm going to do an epilogue or not. So I'll try to continue with the updating every one to two days, because I'm pretty impatient and I want to get this fic out as well. So just watch for the rest.
Finally, I want to thank everyone who have commented and praised my work, because all of those nice comments actually gave me the motivation to finish this. Because I have a really hard time writing multi-chapter fics. So it's kind of a miracle that I finished this. So thanked you to everyone!
Author out!
(And yeah, Jellal and Erza are just going to get even more flustered in chapters to come)
