We're A Mess (MiRza/ErMi)

"Hey, Lisanna, I'm staying over at Erza's place tonight. Be sure to tell Elfman when he comes home. No, no, I'm fine, Lisanna, you don't need to worry. I'll be back in the morning. Right, bye. Good night." Mirajane said through her communication Lacrima Device.  "I was just talking to Lisanna, telling her that I'd stay at your place tonight." Mirajane said to Erza, who was watching her.

"I have ears you know, Mira." Erza replied sarcastically. Mirajane giggled, linking her arm with Erza's and playfully bumping her.

"Oops, my bad." Mirajane smiled. She held Erza's hand, just to see what Erza would do. Erza blinked, looking at their hands for a second in confusion before apparently shrugging it off. Mirajane couldn't help but notice the very subtle shade of pink that touched Erza's cheeks.

"I'm going to go get strawberry cake just like I promised, Mira. You stay here. Maybe take some rest or something. It's getting dark anyways." Erza said, heading to the door. Mirajane didn't really want Erza to leave right now, but Mirajane was not usually one to argue, and she didn't really have any strength or will to talk back at anyone right now. Her break up with Laxus had left her feeling so.. empty. Honestly. Mirajane was the one who broke up with Laxus! Why did she feel like this? Mirajane knew the reason, but couldn't help but ask it to herself. She had loved Laxus, and Laxus had loved her, but had gotten his true feelings for her confused with the feelings for someone else. Mirajane hadn't told that to Laxus. She had just told him they weren't working out, which too was also true. Ever since she realized the situation Laxus was in, she felt a little.. detached to him. That little feeling of detachment had turned into the messy situation that Mirajane was in right now.

About half an hour passed and Erza had finally came back. 

"Alright, I'm back, Mirajane!" Erza said, only to find Mirajane resting on the sofa. Mirajane brightened as she saw Erza.

"Oh, Erza, you're finally back!" Mirajane said, smiling happily. Erza looked a little confused. Mirajane wasn't really the clingy or lonely type. Perhaps she was taking time to recover from her break up, which was understandable. 

"Yup! I brought strawberry cake and noodles, so let's eat!" Erza said.

"Hey, Erza, can I sleep with you?" Mirajane asked as they finished eating. Erza shrugged.

"Sure, why not?" Erza replied casually as she got up. Mirajane noticed that there was a bit of icing on the side of Erza's lips. Mirajane was about to mention it when she had a better idea. Mirajane too stood up, making her way to Erza just before Erza could make it to the kitchen. With her finger, Mirajane swiped the icing off Erza's face, and licked her finger, waiting to see how Erza reacted. Erza turned to look at her in utter confusion. Realizing what Mirajane had done, Erza's cheeks heated up a little. "Wha--..??"

"There was something on your face..  And I can't help but tease you. You're so adorable when you're flustered, Erza." Mirajane replied. Erza cleared her throat, clearly embarrassed.

"Can I deny allowing you to sleep with me?"

"Nope~"

Mirajane realized, as she wrapped her arms around Erza's waist and rested her head against Erza's shoulder and neck, she was getting herself into another messy situation. This time, with Erza.
