You're All I've Got

Chapter 14: Trouble Date

Erza's P.O.V.

I sat quietly with Jellal frozen beside me. Obviously he was finding a way to communicate with the couple across us. I was, too, but the thought of Ultear being paired up with someone as nice and kind-hearted as Gray, stops me from concentrating on reality; on what's happening right now.

Which, by the way, seems kind of off for the said couple.

"Is either of you going to speak? I knew from the beginning that these raccoons aren't going to go well with each other."

I balled my fists and attempted to look as calm as possible.

Raccoon? Seriously, a raccoon? How immature can she get?

"Watch your fucking mouth, you skimpy bitch. If you're going to try to even touch Erza, today won't be your lucky day."

Gray sighed, draping one of his arms around Ultear's shoulders.

"You guys, can we all just get some peace and unity here? We haven't been seeing each other much, lately. I think it's best that we all get along, alright?"

Gray gave Jellal and Ultear a disappointed look and sighed again. I felt glad to know that Gray was taking the role of the mature adult here. Otherwise I'm going to have a deja vu of my previous fight with Ultear.

Jesus.

I personally think that this whole date that Jellal and I decided to go out on in the first place was originally meant to be spent together, alone.

If they're just going to reel in and ruin our shit, then they might as well just scram and find another table to screw with before I rage and murder people. Who do they fucking think they are?

"Okay! So, uh, Erza! It's been a while, how's it going? Are you and Jellal together? If you don't mind me ask-"

"Yes, we are. Is Ultear here your fellow slut to keep you company? Oh, Gray, you made a mistake. It wouldn't have hurt if Juvia were here instead, rather than that naggy, immature fuck you brought along with you-"

I was interrupted by the sound of a slam on the table. I cocked my head at the side and saw Jellal's palms, pressed at the surface of the said furniture. I knew at one point he'd do that, Jellal was one to lose his cool.

"Look. We're all causing trouble here. If we may, Erza and I can leave you two with your privacy or some shit so that everything ends well. Okay? Okay-"

"I have an idea. It's going to be really fun, I guarantee," Ultear joins.

I mentally facepalmed myself as Ultear started bickering about going to different places I could care less of because, Hell, I just wanted to be with Jellal.

Is that so hard to ask for?

Jellal's P.O.V.

We found ourselves walking along the sidewalk to reach the forest Ultear told us about. She said it was her and Gray's hang out place. Oh and she mentioned that they were actually a thing now; which wasn't at all surprising.

A couple of minutes passed by and we were following the path towards the cabin they found not so long ago. I reluctantly agreed to this expedition that Erza didn't want to cooperate with, in the first place, but eventually she gave herself into temptation; after much convincing of course.

Erza was by my side, trailing behind Gray and Ultear as we followed them to whatever direction they were leading us to. I gotta admit though, those two look good together.
