"Stop eating my friend's face!"

   I sweat-dropped at "The-Slanty-Eyed-Lizard-Midget"'s voice. Jellal was scarlet, his face rivaling my hair, and I couldn't help but laugh.

   "Natsu!" I grinned, "I never thought there'd be a day when I'd be happy to see you, for once!"

   "Hey!" Natsu laughed, "But seriously, why was Jellal attached to your face? Like, he's either eating it, assaulting it, or... Were you two kissing?!"

   I nervously laughed, as the truth dawned on Natsu's face. Jellal stepped away from me, rubbing his arm, scarlet tracing the dimples on his cheeks.

   "Nevermind that, Natsu," I said, trying to take attention off of us, "Don't act like you don't snog Lucy behind the banisters."

   Natsu spluttered, while I shot Jellal a sideways-grin, which he returned gladly. "Hmph. Hurry up and take my hand, Erza, we've been looking for you for ages!"

   "Okay." I accepted his hand, as Natsu pulled me. It took him longer to pull Jellal up, as Jellal was definitely heavier than me. I scoffed as Natsu finally pulled him up, only for Jellal to fall on top of Natsu.

   Oh my...

   Did I mention, that they accidentally kissed?

   "Mmpmmph! Gerrof me!" Natsu hissed, shoving Jellal off, and feverishly rubbing a hand over his lips, "Ugh! That was awful, Fernandes! Honestly, get better at kissing. That was so..."

   "Wet?" Jellal 'helpfully' suggested, making Natsu spit, and glare. 

   "Erza, Mira's waiting, a little onward. You're actually pretty lucky that we went camping," Natsu said, "also, Ultear and Meredy said that you were fine... so we didn't worry about your disappearance, but it was definitely fishy."

     I furrowed my eyebrows, frowning, "That's fine. We'll deal with them later. I feel like strangling Mirajane right now."

   Jellal hurriedly followed me, "Yeah, let's-"

   "Oh no, you don't!" Natsu grabbed Jellal's collar and swung him precariously close to the ravine cliff. I yelped, ready to punch some Dragneel butt. "I'm watching you two, no close contact. We don't want children, too soon..."

   I gulped, and without a second thought, turned around and left Jellal whimpering in Natsu's talons.

   I know right, I'm such an awesome girlfriend.

~~~

   "Let me get this straight..." Mira popped a marshmallow into her mouth, "Your parents were the Belserions, who somehow killed Sieg and Jellal's parents."

   "Yup," I winced, faintly.

   "Somehow, you and Sieg met again, he became your boyfriend before you came to our school, he turned abusive, made fake letters about you 'cheating' on him, threw a butter knife at you, made you get a fake eye, and made you lose most of your memories?"

   "Uh-huh,"

   Mira opened and closed her mouth, nodded her head, and picked at her stick, "Then, you came here, you fell in love with Jellal-"

   I glared at her for this, however, she merely continued; It was, of course, the truth.

   "Mystogan, alias Siegrain, started threatening you, he tried killing Jellal, where Jellal found out the truth about your parents, started hating you, but that turned out to be Siegrain. Siegrain somehow, once again, kidnapped you, tried killing you and Jellal, Jellal killed him, you two escaped, and we're here now?"

   I nodded, digesting everything Mira said, repeating the story I had told her. 

   "Have a marshmallow, Scarlet."

   "Huh?"

   "I said, have a marshmallow."

   I had a Marshmallow.

   "We'll head back to the school tomorrow," Mira's usually cheerful grin was gone, as she stared out to the distance, "Gramps would like to hear about this."

   I nodded, "Yeah," from the corner of my eye, I could see Jellal grumpily sitting next to Natsu, who seemed to be enjoying ordering him around. 

   I glanced back, Mira was giving me a sweet smile, and I smiled back.

   "You know," she started, "I think you really love Jellal..." I grinned, "It'll be good for him, after losing his brother."

   I sighed, "I guess it will."

   Mira laughed, "I know it will."
