Jellal woke up. He stretched out and realized Erza wasn't there. He freaked out "Erza !" He said getting up looking for her. That's when a nurse came. "She's getting her wounds patched in the other room" she said jellal got up and quickly went to the other room. "Where Erza where is- he stopped as he saw the nurse patching her wounds she arched in pain holding it in. Jellal eyes soft she was so broken so hurt "Erza" her name escaped his mouth. Erza looked up and meet his eyes. It's been a long time since he last seen her long time since he last looked into those eyes and he couldn't described the pain he felt looking into her eyes you can see all the pain. "Jellal" she said her voice still gentle still warm. "Excuse me your grace I shall leave y'all to alone my king" the nurse said and left the room both of them in silence sits been a long time since they were till close and alone. He looked at her body she was only in her bra and panties. She noticed him staring and covered up. He walked a bit closer to her and removed her hands and got a good look at her. lots of bruises covered her body, lots of scratches and lots of marks, lots of scars, lots of deep cuts and bite marks dug into her beautiful soft skin, marks left on her wrist from the shackles that held her. "What have they done to you Erza" jellal said he felt so horrible it was all his fault she was like this all his fault "Please don't look at me.. I'm a mess" She softly said. "I think you're beautiful" jellal said and tried touching her but she didn't let herself, she began trembling. "Erza, what happen to you?" Jellal said. "I'm fine" Erza said she tried standing up but than she tumbled Jellal caught her in time. She could hardly move she was so weak she began to grow warm. "Erza you're warm.. Let me take you to my room" he said he stood up with Erza in his arms and places her on his bed and sat aside her and touch her forehead still warm. "Erza .. Please tell me what happened I know you're not okay ..." Jellal said. Erza was shaking badly she couldn't stop shaking. She sat up "Jellal can you please give me clothes I can't stand to be like this .." Erza said. Jellal went to his drawer and gave her his shirt "I'm sorry I don't have any clothes for girls ." Jellal said "it's fine" Erza said she tried to put it on but was so weak "here let me help you " jellal said He stood her up "grab on to me so you won't fall" he said Erza grabbed on to him. And raise one arm and jellal put the shirt on and then the other. His shirt felt to her thighs it was pretty big he then sat her down once more. "Erza please can you tell me what happened"
