You woke up slowly, unsure of what time it is. You look around for a clock to see, but something hit the back of your head and it is followed with Erza's voice.

"Come on (Y/N)! We're losing day light here!"

You grunt and look at Erza, asking her,

"What was that for?!"

"You were asleep, and me whispering your name, then loudly yelling at you, telling you to wake up didn't work. So I went for the pillow and hit you. Got an issue with that?"

You sigh and shake your head. You look at her, telling her,

"Go be with Lucy and the others or something. I need time to change you know."

Erza laughs and smiles, nodding her head. She leaves the room and you sigh and get up from the bed. You changed into different clothing and not a moment later, join Erza out in the hallway. You looked around for the gang, yet there was no sight of Gray, Natsu or Lucy. You looked at Erza, asking her,

"Where are those three?"

"Eh, probably asleep. I would wait for them but this is one of the few chances I would relax, so why would I throw that away? Natsu would know where to find the food since he always sniffs it down like a dog. Those two will follow. Now as for you, let's get going since SOMEBODY is ready."

You shrug and nodded your head. You walk with Erza down the stairs, going into the lobby, looking around for the breakfast area. You and her finally found it and gotten your breakfast items. You sat down at an empty table, which is designed for two obviously. She sat across from you. You look at her plate and she has more then you, and you looked at her with an eyebrow raised.

"Erza you sure are hungry huh?"

Erza looked at you, swallowing her muffin, 

"Well yeah. I'm not a heavy eater but since I have to keep Natsu and Gray in check, let alone the monsters and villains that come around, I need the energy." 

You nodded your head and continue to eat. By the time you and her are finished, she gotten up and grabbed her plates and yours, to put them where they belong. She walked back to you, sitting across from you. She looks into your (E/C) pupils, as you stare back into her brown eyes. You started to feel queasy, but you're unsure of why. You shrug it off looking at her. She flashes a smile, asking you

"So, how do you feel about swimming?"

You shrug and nodded your head.

"I can but at least let the food settle. Let's go and change at the least, maybe by then the food would be digested."

Erza nodded her head in agreement with a smile. You and Erza gotten up and went back upstairs to change into decent bathing outfits. You chose (F/C, being either bikini or swim trunks) while Erza came out with a yellow bikini. She looks at you and shrugs.

"Nice pick, now do you have towels? Since we're going to need them."

All you could do is stare at her. You saw Erza as a friend so far and sure she has her moments of being scary and beating up Natsu and Gray, but she also has her moments of being really nice. Maybe cute...Wait cute? You shook your head to get that thought out. Cute is a death sentence when it came to her. The way she acts, is fine but you don't want to be on her bad side ever. You look at her and nodded your head. You walk to the bathroom to grab a few towels for you and her. You hand her one and she grabs it, nodding her head.

"Alright (Y/N)! Let's get going before the pool is filled with people! Last one there is a sinker!" 

She chuckled and starts for a dash to the door to run out. You gasp and run after her. You refused to lose, but damn she runs fast, but as if you were going to give up that easily. You ran by what seems like Natsu and Lucy but you didn't mind them too much since you had to beat Erza in that race. By the time you got there, it was a tie but Erza was already saying

"I won! Looks like you're a sinker and not a swimmer (Y/N)!" 

You chuckled shaking your head. You look out at the pool, expecting something bland like every other pool. But it was beyond boring. Your jaw drops to see the multiple water slides and how big the pool was, let alone having a glass roof over it. Words can't express how amazed you are at the sight. Erza tilted her head a bit, looking at you. 

"(Y/N)? Are you alright?" 

You nodded your head saying 

"Yeah Erza, I'm fine. I'm just amazed at this. I thought it would be some cheap community pool, but I was proven wrong..completely."

Erza chuckled and smiled. She looked at you, saying,

"Well, let's go find some chairs to put these towels down and let's go ride the biggest and longest water slide!" 

You nodded your head and followed her to some chairs that were near the water slides. She put her towel down next to yours once you had put it down. By the time you looked at her to ask if she was ready, she was already running to the slides. You blinked, and sighed, running after her. After running after her, You finally caught up to her and queued the line for the water slides with Erza. She looked at you with an exciting smile, asking you,

"Are you scared? I'm not! I'm beyond excited!"

You looked down while walking up the steps. Okay it was a bit high, even to your liking. You looked at her which, her eyes were gleaming with excitement. You didn't want to be that person to ruin her joy, so you sigh and chuckle.

"Yeah, I'm beyond excited Erza."

She smiles at you. By the time you both gotten up there, it was stated that two people at a time can go. She looked at you and smiled, asking,

"So you ready for this (Y/N)?! I'm so pumped for this!!"

You gave the best smile you could, being quite unsure how the ride was going to go. She sat down in the front and you right behind her, the life guard telling you to hold onto her tight. You looked at her and slowly hold onto her by the stomach. Once given the go, Erza leaned in forward, dragging you with her. You looked over at the sight and it was so high up, you felt as if your heart just dropped. But it was too late. You dropped along with Erza, as she had her arms up, screaming in joy as you had your eyes widened, not sure if you were suppose to scream in fear or in joy. You hoped for it to be over but it was far from over. Let alone, far from being okay. It looked like as if Erza's top was snagged on something and your eyes widen. The only thought that went through your head was

Shit 

You looked ahead to see how far it is from landing in the water. It looked like it was going to be a long way. You panicked internally, as Erza didn't notice the situation that was going on. You had to think of something, and something fast. You looked at her top as it was halfway coming undone. You quickly used (Insert your power here) just a bit to snip at the string that was snagged. You sigh in relief and held onto her. By the time you two hit in the water, you pulled her close to you and whispered into her ear,

 "Your top got snagged while riding the water slide. It's half way undone so I'll bring you your towel so we can go."

 Erza looked at you, blush creeping on her cheeks, out of embarrassment of course. You looked at her sighing, hugging her, feeling bad for her that it happened. At least there isn't much people in the pool since she wanted to wake you up at the crack ass of dawn. You walked out of the pool, Erza following up to a certain point. You grabbed her towel and walked back to her, for her to cover her top. She wrapped the towel around her and looked at you.

"Thanks for covering me (Y/N)...I don't know what I would've done without you." 

Erza's words made you feel as if you had butterflies in your stomach. You know it's a death wish to like the woman. All you could repeat in your head was

You don't like her, you don't like her, you don't like- God damn it! 

You nodded your head at her while she was walking out of the pool. You blushed lightly while looking at her. Erza may be scary but she's the scary you were looking for all your life. Your only question is how to tell her without being pummeled if she rejects you. At least, you hope she doesn't reject you that is.
