Alright guys! After a unanimous vote from the comments I recieved, here is the Jerza themed chapter like I promised! (Please remember that it is in Erza's POV now and not Lucy's like it normally would be! After this chapter then the rest of the story will be in Lucy's POV - unless otherwise told)

Please enjoy chapter 19 (a.k.a Chapter 18.5!)

Erza POV

"THE MAGES! Meaning All Fired Up are your number 2 slots for these charts!" I can't believe it! We have won it! We have a number one album and single in the charts! This is just incredible! I just grab the girls and hug them tightly as champagne is popped and passed around to us all, everyone congratulating us.

I watch as MiraJane and Natsu say a few quick interviews on the phone, but at the moment, I am not fussed about what they say! I am so happy that all of our hard work has pulled off! I take it in turns to hug everyone…. until I get to Jellal. We sort of awkwardly shrug shoulders at each other and smile. He holds out his hand for me to shake. "Congratulations"

I slowly grab it and mustering up all of the pride that I have, I smile and grab the outstretched hand and shake it confidently. "Thank you"

We stare into each other's eyes for a moment or two, none of us daring to make the first move to leave or end the now non existent hand shake., We are just holding hands now as my face starts to heat up and feelings that I thought that I had lost for this man immediately shoot me straight in the heart again. Why am I still in love with Jellal? It took me all of this time of hating him, ignoring him and cursing him for making me feel so heartbroken and yet, the second that I get some happiness back, I welcome him back as if we are talking normally….But we are not talking normally. We are acting like strangers. I know that Jellal has been trying to apologise for so long to me but I was always having none of it. I didn't want to know. I have been so angry with him, that I have blinded myself with what was in front of me.

For the first time in a little over a month I take a full look at Jellal. His skin is paler than it should be, his hand that I am still holding feels a little weaker than what I knew. I look around his eyes. I can see black shadows indicating that he is not sleeping well. What has happened to him in the last few weeks? Did I do this to him because I was not listening to what he had to say? Should I hear him out so that I can try and get him back to the man I know him to be?

The next thing I know, we are thrown off by the sound of glass clinking and we both snap out of our staring contest to look at Lucy who is holding a drink in her hand. "Thank you. I just wanted to say to you all thank you for everything. Without the girls over here and their hard work, we would not be here today, thank you to MiraJane for being an amazing manager and kicking our butts when we have seriously needed it, and also thank you to Makarov and the boys, for their amazing support in everything that we have done as a band. If we had not gone on the tour with you, who knows where we would be right now and whether we would actually have met. So I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you. TO OUR NUMBER ONE ALBUM AND SINGLE!" Lucy shouts out, in which we all shout out and cheer in response.

Once again I go round clinking everyone's glasses together and I get to Jellal's again who happens to be next to me. He takes a sip, waits for me to take one and motions his head to a quiet part at the back of the bus. "Can I talk to you in private?" He asks. I look him over and realise that he is shaking with nerves. Something tugs in my heart and I nod in acceptance as he starts to walk to the back of the bus and I follow. We both end up standing, leaning against a bit of wall, still holding onto our champagne glass and beer bottle.

Knowing what he wanted to talk about, I decide to get it over with "What's up?" I ask nonchalantly

"I wanted to say congratulations" That shocked me. That was not what I expecting from him first off.

"You have already congratulated me." I state. I know that I am sounding petty but I am nervous

"I know. But I wanted to tell you that again when I'm sure that no one was watching. I wanted to tell you that I am really happy for you and that I am really proud of you"

Inside I smile, but I am master of composure, showing nothing but a straight face "Thank you"

"I know that you do not want to talk to me and that's okay. I understand. I just wanted to talk to you again as adults now that hopefully everything has calmed down. Has it?" He asks

I shrug "I am not sure"

"I just want to know that we are okay Erza. You have been ignoring for me for the past month and it is killing me. All I want to do is apologise to you about everything that I said and you will not let me in." I 'tch' silently at that comment but I let the moment pass. I need to let him say his peace "I want you to know that I am so sorry and that I such a foolish man for thinking that something like distance should even be an issue between us. I want more than anything for us to be back together but I know that you probably do not want that so I will leave that up to you. I want you to decide where we stand. I want you back Erza and I will do anything to get you back" Jellal says and inside it is breaking my heart in two. I know that despite everything he has put me through, I still love him and want nothing more than to take him back. But I have one thing bugging my mind.

"How do I know that you are not going to do this to me again?" I ask

"Because I never will again. I am a man of my word Erza and I promise you that if you let me, I will never let you go again. I know what it is like without you and it is killing me slowly every day knowing that you hate me. I should never have broken up with you. I should have fought for you and I will do whatever I can to avoid that happening again."

I nod slowly taking in everything that he has said. I want to believe him. I want to know that what he is saying is true.

"I leave it up to you Erza but I just wanted you to know that I still love you and I want us back together."

I look straight into his eyes and all I see is the truth. He IS hurting. He does still love me. He is feeling exactly how I am aswell.. so why are we both torturing each other when the answer is so simple?

I shake my head slowly as I think of how I felt when he broke my heart in two. I gasp as I feel his hand on my face cupping it gently as if to soothe my doubt. I almost sink back into the heat of amazing touch right there, but inside of me reminds me that we are not back together and he can still hurt me.

"I still love you too Jellal but I need to know that you are not going to hurt me again. This past month has been too much for me. I have spent too long crying over this and I don't want to be doing it again if anything happens for you to break your word."

"Then trust me Erza. I want more than anything for this to work again. I was a fool for letting you go and I promise that I will make it up to you in whatever way I can. I will call you every single night to make sure that you know that I love you. I will let you beat me black and blue for making you feel this way. I will send you a strawberry cheesecake every day to the bus if I have to" I giggle, making him smile in return.

"Please give me a chance to make it up to you"

I give him one last look in the eyes and I know that I am a goner. I love Jellal too much to say no to him. I want this to work as much as he does.

"Okay. But if this happens again I will kick your ass"

Jellal smiles broadly "You will never have to Erza."

Then he leans forward and kisses me tenderly on the lips. I smile in delight and familiarity. It is just as I remembered. I feel the electrical pull between us reminding me that this is right as he pulls away too quickly and instead grabs me into a hug. I can not contain the beam on my face as he whispers 'thank you' repeatedly in my ear making me smile again. Just hearing that in my ear makes me realise that I definately made the right decision.

With that, no more words were spoken. We knew where this was going next. We need to be more alone than what we are right now and I need him now. Jellal links our hands softly, while kissing the tops of my knuckles in the process. He starts to pull me and I follow with no regret in my heart. We walk past everyone still hand in hand, knowing full well that they could see that we had decided to get back together. No words were spoken from them as they watched us walk up the stairs to the bunks upstairs.

I hear them slightly out of ear range high fiving each other and our of the corner of my eye hugging each other again and I smile to myself. I know how they feel. They are just as relieved as I am that this is all over.

As I continue to climb the stairs I think just one thing.

Finally

So what dya think! I never write Jerza stories so this is my first Jerza only chapter! How did I do? I absolutely love Jerza and ship all of the others so badly, I really do hope now that a lot of things will come to light now from chapter 400 in the manga! (I won't say anything to avoid ruining it for everyone who has not read it but YOU MUST READ IT! IT IS BEYOND AWESOME! It is a guaranteed cry-fest! I will admit that I cried because it was that awesome! Who else here did?)

Anyway! Next week's chapter will be back to the current time and it will now be following the story back in Lucy's POV!

Love to all and thank you for the votes! For those who voted I want to know what you thought!

Usual: I have nothing to do with Fairy Tail! But I am currently obsessed with the current Fairy Tail opening song!
