Erza's POV

It had been about four days since we had dug Lucy out and brought her to the infirmary.

I hadn't gone to see her, not even once. I couldn't. I couldn't look at her and see the condition that she was in because I was to blame for it.

She had woken up a few times and Mira had said that she always asked about me and where I was when she went to check on her.

It hurt not to see her but I couldn't bring myself to.

"Erza?"

I snapped my attention to the takeover mage and blinked.

"Oh umm sorry Mira, I just sort of spaced out there for a moment." I said quietly.

"It's fine, but I've been told you have a visitor right outside of the guild." She said and nodded at the door.

"But before you go... I've been meaning to ask you something..." She said quietly.

"What is it?" I asked but I had a bit of an uneasy feeling because it sounded like a important question.

"Do you... Do you have feelings for Lucy...?"

"WAIT WHAT?!!" I exclaimed.

"SHH!" She hushed me.

"Now, answer the question." She said.

"No thanks Mira, I'm not getting involved with your match making schemes." I simply said and got up from the chair I had been siting in and walked outside to see a familiar hooded figure.

"Jellal, it's nice to see you again." I said with a warm smile, trying to forget Mira and I's little chat.

"I just couldn't help but come see you again." He said with a light chuckle.

"Oh really Mr. Fernandes?" I said with a smirk.

"I want to show you something." He said and took my hand and started leading me away from the guild hall.

My face was bright red the whole time.

About a few minutes later Jellal and I were in some sort of maze. It was almost dark now but he seemed like he knew which way to go because he didn't hesitate once with each twist and turn.

Soon enough we came to a clearing, in the center was a beautiful fountain and a table for two.

"Stay right here." He said with a smile and he went behind the fountain, bringing out a huge bowl of spaghetti and two plates, two sets of forks, along with serving utensils.

"I have to ask, did you make that or did someone do it for you?" I said raising a brow with a slight smirk. He never could cook so it was highly likely someone else made it.

"Meredy did it..." A light blush covered his cheeks and he set the table quickly.

I laughed and smiled. "I wasn't making fun of you." I said as I sat down in one of the chairs.

"I know I know." He said and laughed a little himself as he sat down in the other chair.

We had eaten and chatted for what seemed like hours.

These were the kinds of things I didn't get to do with him very often and I missed it.

We had known each other for what seemed like a life time because of how much we both changed, good or bad.

"I miss doing these things with you when you're away..." I said with a sigh as he cleared the table.

"I know... And so do I, and that's one of the reasons I wanted to spend tonight with you." He said and flashed me a smile.

"Thank you, it was nice of you to put all of this together." I said and smiled back.

He walked back over to me and placed his hand on top of mine, making me blush a bit as I stared at ours hands touching and then at him.

He smiled and took my hand in his, pulling me up so I was standing.

"Care to dance?" He asked with a small chuckle.

"There's no music." I countered back and smirked slightly.

"Just make up one in your head." He said and smiled before putting his other hand in the middle of my back as he started to lead into a slow dance.

I blushed a bit and looked down.

After a few minutes of dancing around he stopped and stepped back a bit and smiled at me.

"What?" I asked curiously with a smirk.

He took my hand in his again and slowly start to...

OH MY GOD

He got on one knee, smiling up at me as he reached into the pocket of his jacket, revealing a silver diamond ring in his hand. 

My face was redder than my hair as I looked at him. I was completely speechless right now.

"Erza Scarlet.... Will you marry me?"
