Jellal's POV
Tonight was going to be the dance. Obviously I'm going with Erza, but I'm so nervous and I don't even have a suit yet... I wonder if Erza has picked out a dress. Luckily its Saturday so I have all day to go buy one at the store.
Since I'm not too good with this stuff I decide to call a few of my friends. I have a feeling Gray would be the best choice when it comes to style... I should give him a call. I run up to my room real quick which is filled with study notes. Where's my phone?
I finally find it under my Under armor hoodie.
-dials number
"Hey Jellal! What's up man?" He answers nonchalant
"Well I called because I thought maybe you could help me find a suit for the dance tonight?"
"Sure bro, meet me at the mall in half an hour."
"Okay thanks." I sigh relieved while hanging up.
I decide to eat a bowl if ramen before I head out. I can't help but wonder how beautiful Erza will look tonight, what color of dress will she wear? White, black, blue or red? It doesn't matter since I'd love her even if she came in her ripped jeans and sweatshirt.
When I finally finish eating I brush my teeth and head out the door grabbing my motorcycle keys. I turn on the ignition and start driving towards the huge mall located in the middle of town. It takes me roughly fifteen minutes before I get in the driveway. There I see Gray with his leather jacket and cigarette waving at me.
"You ready? Remember stay close or you'll be trampled alive by a mob of girls" he explains with a chuckle.
He wasn't kidding either. As soon as we step in all we could see were teenage girls trying to get to the clearance racks for dresses.
"Over here." Gray says directing me towards a fancy store for men.
"By the way, have you even gotten yours yet?" I ask him
"Nope! That's why I thought it was a good idea when you called... I almost forgot."
"Were you going to go without a shirt again?!" I tease him
"Maybe!"
We walk around a bit until we cone across the tux shelves.
I watch Gray look through the different styles. "What color you going for?" I ask him
"Blue. Ice blue to be exact." He holds up a suit with a tie a light shade of blue. "What about you?"
"I was thinking scarlet..." it would compliment the color of Erza's hair and my tattoo. Its my final decision.
We buy the suits and head the heck out of there before the huge tital wave of girls would appear again.
Erza's POV
"Why is this so uncomfortable!" I mutter in frustration as I try to adjust the dark blue knee-length strapless dress. My girl friends, Mira, Lucy, Levy and Juvia helped me finding it earlier at a chick boutique downtown.
I stare at myself in the mirror in shock. I don't look like Erza Scarlet. I barely recognize myself in this beautiful flowy dress and with my hair tied up in a bun. I almost forgot one last thing, my diamond shaped earrings from Jellal. I spin a couple times. I'm right. I'm not Erza,
I am Titania queen, of the fairies.
I couldn't wait to see my handsome prince tonight in his suit. Even thinking of it made me jitter inside.
I decide to spend the rest if my afternoon helping Lucy find a dress. In the end she buys a long puffy beautiful soft pink dress that falls to the ground when she wears it. I'm sure Natsu will love it.
By the time we're finished the dance starts in an hour.
Exhausted, I take a quick nap on the couch.
-----------------------------------------
"Shoot!" I look at the time and there's only twenty minutes left! I run upstairs and get into my dress real quick, tie up my hair in a perfectly messy bun, put on my flats since I can't wear heels... and run out the door.
Luckily the school is only a five minute walk from my house. But then before I start walking I see Jellal standing across the street on his motorcycle waiting for me with a huge bouquet of flowers. I can't help but notice how handsome he is with his hair flowing in his face and that tux.
Over joyed I start running across the street to meet him. His face quickly changes from happy to frightened. He gets off his bike running full speed in my direction.
"ERZA! MOVE!!!"
It was all too quick. By the time I know what's happening a bright light blinds me as what feels like a ton hits me so hard I fall strait to the ground in a big pool of blood. Unconscious.
Jellal's POV
"ERZA...!" Running towards her as fast as I can, I see her covered in blood, lying there motionless. Mixed emotions flood me. Sadness, anger and fear. I reach for my phone in my pocket and call 911 with my shaking hands.
"911, what's your emergency?"
"M-my girlfriend! She got hit by a truck!! I-i am currently at St Peter's road!"
"We are on our way! Make sure she doesn't loose too much blood!"
I hang up and quickly rip off the white T-shirt I had under my suit and use it to soak up the blood on her body. I hold her cold hands in mine.
"Stay with me Erza..." I beg wiping the tears that have formed in my eyes.
I see the ambulance taking Erza away from me and placing her on a stretcher. "We have a 44!" A women screams. I try to follow her but they won't let me. I stay there in the middle of the street completely wet from the rain that started until the white vehicle disappears from my sight.
"Stay strong, Titania"
