Jellal's P.O.V.

I laid down in the bedroom in our hotel room, completely and utterly exhausted. The ceiling seemed to swivel, almost, as I sprawled myself across the bed.

How did I end up here?

How did I allow myself to get into something as horrendous as this? 

I couldn't recall a time in my life where I'd ever felt so... Defeated. 

This is it.

I can't do this anymore.

I was so tired I could barely walk anymore. My arms, legs, shoulders- no- let me just be brief and declare that everything hurt. My eyelids hovered wearily over my vision, threatening to put me to sleep.

I should probably explain.

I had to cook for Erza and Natsu when we got back. When I was cooking, the others could smell the food being prepared. They casually let themselves in, requested I make them dinner as well, and took a seat to wait for their food.

Even the exceeds wanted something to eat.

For the past couple of hours, I'd been stumbling about the kitchen trying to serve everyone as fast as I could. 

I'm a fairly-decent cook; my mother taught me the basics when I was young, and I've learned over time. However, I was never prepared to serve as many people as this. And the dragon slayers- They eat as much as ten individuals!

Once I was done, I'd lead myself here and plopped down on the comforter with a reassuring plop.

"Kill me," I mumbled incoherently towards the empty room. 

"You really shouldn't joke around like that, Jellal," Erza remarked as she shakily entered the room. I glanced over to her tiredly, before jumping onto my feet promptly.

I rushed over to her side immediately, "Why didn't you call me? I thought I told you to call me if you needed anything! That includes walking!"

"I've got to start walking on my own sometime; besides, you're acting like I can't do anything on my own anymore! I'm sure you'd breathe for me if you could," 

"Can I?" I asked her, picking her up and carrying her to the bed.

"Breathe for me? No!" She replied, giving me a sideways glance.

"Maybe Meldy has a spell that could-"

"Jellal!" She cried, staring at me with defensive eyes.

"What!" I laughed, turning away from her to pour her a glass of water, "I'm just messing around with you."

'Hey Meldy, is there a spell that you can cast between two people that allows one to breathe for the other?' I telepathically asked her. She was in the other room with everyone else, enjoying a warm meal.

While I was standing at the dresser getting her water from the provided pitcher, Meldy popped her head in, "Jellal, if I cast that spell I don't think you'll survive once Erza finds-" She paused, seeing Erza on the bed behind me, "...out. Hey... Erza..." She waved shakily before slowly exiting once again.

"'Just messing'!" She repeated to me, throwing a pillow harshly at me. Damn, she caught on!

"Hey- hey! I'm pouring water, I'll spill!"

"'Just messing'!" She said once again in a more exaggerated tone as she launched another pillow at me. I barely dodged it, getting hit in the thigh.

"Erz- Hey!" I filled the glass and put the pitcher down. With my newly freed hand, I grabbed one of the pillows she tossed at me, and threw it back at her.

She smacked it away and shot another in my direction in the same movement, causing me to duck as it hit the wall behind me. I kept myself cautious so that I wouldn't spill, but picked up another pillow from the floor.

I closed the seemingly small distance between us, only for her to pick up her last pillow and throw it at me as hard as she could. It smacked me dead in the face before falling to my feet with a puff.

Surprisingly, I didn't drop the glass of water.

I set it casually on the nightstand next to her, before locking my eyes with hers, "Alright, that is enough from you!"

I grinned evilly as I picked up the pillow from the ground and began hitting her with it repeatedly. She laughed and screamed as I did so, which I found adorable. 

I eventually threw away the pillow and threw myself at her, tickling her to the point of tears, "JELLAL- JE- JELLAL I SWEAR!"

"You swear what, huh? You swear what?" I taunted, laughing as her body jerked in attempt to avoid me.

"I-I-"

"You what!?" I asked her as I poked her sides and the inner curve of her neck. I was laughing almost as much as she was; seeing her squirm like a little kid was just too much for me to handle. 

"I- CA-CAN'T BREATHE!" She screamed through fits of uncontrollable laughter, "J-JELLAL!"

"Whaddya gonna do, huh?" I talked to her like she was really a kid, "Whaddya gonna do!?"

"I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" She giggled as she fought ferociously against my tickling.

"I'd like to see you try!" I chuckled as I watched her jokingly suffer at my hands. 

I thought she was going to play right into my palm.

Until her body jerked in an unpredictable way, kicking me off balance and backwards, until I fell on the floor beneath her nightstand. Just when I thought it was over, the cup of water leapt over the edge and splashed all over me; ending it's short fall on my stomach.

I froze for a second, taking in the idea that what just happened wasn't just in my head. I was soaked. 

Erza peered over the bed curiously, the corners of her eyes still smiling. Until she saw what I looked like. Then her eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her hands, "I'm so sorry!"

I narrowed my eyes at her playfully, "Sorry isn't good enough."

She blinked a few times, "W-What?"

"I don't forgive you," I stated more clearly, removing the cup from my stomach and placing it to the side.

"I-I'm sorry, I really am! What can I do to-"

"I don't think you understand," I kept my expression low and my smile coy as I got to my feet. I went over to the bedroom door and locked it, just in case any of our friends wanted to barge in.

"What don't I understand?" Her expression was still blank, wondering what was going on.

I took off my wet shirt and threw it to the side as I stepped closer to her. She turned a vague shade of pink, looking away from my face to glance at where my shirt once was.

"I want revenge!" I laughed cheerily, swiftly hoisting her up and over my shoulder. It took her a moment before she snapped out of the daze she was in and began fighting back.

"What are you doing!? Where are we going!? Jellal!" She whimpered as she punched my back and lightly kicked her feet. I carried her over into the bathroom and turned on the shower.

She then understood what was coming next.

"DON'T YOU DARE!" She shouted, "I'm still in my clothes! You're going to get my clothes all wet and-"

"Would you prefer to not be wearing clothes?" I teased her, laughing once I saw her face go red. I felt the water to make sure it was warm. While I did want revenge, at least I was polite about it.

With a quick movement, I let her down from my shoulder and into the shower water, "JELLAL!!!" She screamed as the water sprayed her.

I couldn't contain my laughter until it was hysterical, to which I covered my stomach with my hand, "P-Payback!!" I told her before turning away to get her a towel.

"Is that so?" She questioned before I felt a tug on the back of my pants. Before I could object, she managed to pull me into the shower with her. With a sudden gasp as the water hit my skin, my laugh soon came to an end.

I was now facing her, both of us getting drenched by the shower. My hair now hung around my face in a darkened shade, full of water. I already got my shirt wet, and now the rest of my clothes? What a mess.

I slowly moved closer to her in the small area that was available in this tiny shower. She tried to back away from me, not knowing what plan I was up to.

"You know," I mumbled as I moved closer to Erza, "You really shouldn't have done that."

"Why's that?" She asked, staring up at me with wide, innocent eyes.

"Because I might do this," I smirked, grabbing her hands with my own and pushing them against the wall. I nudged her with my knee, causing her body to follow in pursuit.

"J-Jellal," She whispered frailly as I felt her pulse quicken in her wrist. I kept my eyes focused on hers and nothing else as I leaned into her. 

My face was barely an inch away from hers as our lips grazed one another, "Do you want me to stop?" I asked her with a sly expression.

She seemed to be too surprised to speak.She kept her gaze fixed on me, without making a sound.

"Come'on, Erza," I bit my lip in anticipation, "I'd never want to do anything you didn't want."

She paused for a moment, before her lips twinged and a whisper escaped her, "N-no,"

I gave a small laugh at her shyness, "That's what I wanted to hear."

Not willing to wait any longer, I gently pressed my lips against hers. The familiar warmth and movement of her lips against my own was enough to put me on edge.

The feeling must've been mutual, as we both began pushing the kissing deeper. I could feel her heart racing, and how her breathing had hitched. 

Pulling away with a pant, I tugged her soaked shirt over her head and let it fall on the floor. I immediately placed my hands on her skin and pulled her back into me. 

Her fingers ran along the back of my neck roughly, and I could feel her nails leaving light, thin trails behind. With that, our lips met once again. In the heat of the moment, I bit her lip tenderly and listened as a subtle moan escaped her.

Hearing it, I pushed myself on her more deliberately, kissing her with a deeper passion. I ran my tongue along her bottom lip to ask for access, which she responded to by slightly opening her mouth more.

Steam bathed our bodies as we became lost in each other. Our tongues fought against one another playfully before I pulled away to breathe. As I did so, she reached for the clasp of my belt.

"I never thought this..." I gestured downwards with my eyes, "Would happen."

She pulled the belt away and tossed it on her shirt, before looking up at me.

"Do you want to stop?" She asked, trying to sound calm and collected. Her cheeks were tainted red and her hands still remained at my hips.

"Funny," I smirked at her as I cupped the sides of her face, "You asking me that."

I firmly kissed her once again, allowing myself to show how badly I was craving her.

She used her hands to pull the jeans I was wearing down until I kicked them away. Smiling mischievously at her, I then reached forwards helped her out of her own pants. 

I was still letting it all soak in that I was standing, near-naked, in a shower with Erza. Normally, I would be terrified of this moment. I'd be calculating every move I made and nervously stumbling about my actions.

But being here, in this moment, I can't describe it any better way than stating that-

It just felt right.

I lifted her up slightly, letting her legs wrap around my hips. I held the back of her thighs firmly as I pushed myself against her once again. Judging by the face she made, I'm assuming she could feel that I was more than a little excited.

I smirked at her reaction before leaning into her and pressing my lips against her neck. I began gently biting at her skin, and sucking on it just before it began to hurt. 

"J-Jellal!" She gasped, roughly running her fingers through my hair. Her body tensed up at my touch, which I found amusing to play with. I moved my hands further up the back of her thighs and squeezed her tightly, which caused her to hold back a loud moan.

When I was finished with her neck, I massaged the hickey I'd just made with my tongue. It was still a dark pink, not yet setting in. I gave my work a delicate kiss, which then led into a trail of kisses past her collar bone, ending in between her breasts.

I moved one of my hands to the clasp of her bra, and held it in between my fingers.

Before continuing, I looked back up at her, "Are you sure?" I asked her once again. I want her consent the entire time, because I never want to hurt her like this.

In response, she leaned into me and placed a forceful kiss on my lips. One that was as equally as desperate as my own. She used her tongue to play with me before releasing, "I'm sure," She reassured me with a devilish smile.

I allowed my fingers to gently unhook her bra, and kissed her collar bone as I delicately pulled it away from her. To feel her bare skin against my own made me want her in ways I can't explain.

Her legs wrapped tighter around my hips, "I can feel you," She whispered in my ear while throwing her arms around my neck, "It must be pretty uncomfortable with those boxers still on." She ended her sentence by quickly giving my ear a subtle bite.

I stared at her for a moment, taken off guard by her control of the situation. Before long, however, I smirked back at her as she held herself against me, I kept one hand on her bottom and used the other to fondle her breasts one at a time.

As I did this I continued kissing and biting her neck, reveling in the reactions I got from her. I rocked my hips back and fourth against her, knowing she could feel every movement.

'This was going to be a very long, very heated, but most of all- a very, very fun night.'  I thought with a dirty smirk as she reached for the band on my boxers.
