Gajeel's Gem (On Hold)

Chapter 5: Karaoke at Fairy Tail

Y/n's POV
"I'm feeling better now," I said. "Ready to sing too."

"Alright," Levy said. "Talked with Amethyst?"

"Yeah," I said. "I did. She told me to let those who care about me help me, and to have fun with my friends."

"Smart dragon," Gajeel said. "Now, break a leg, Crystal."

"Thanks, Gajeel," I said. "Play the song Levy."

"Right," Levy said, pressing play on the song. "Hey everyone! Y/n wants to sing a song that's very special to her!"

As soon as the words left Levy's mouth, everyone in the guildhall directed their attention towards me. And as soon as the music started playing, I took a deep breath and held the microphone up.

Determination to leave fills your heart
But I don't know if you're strong enough
It is a treacherous place outside
That's why I'm trying to close it off

Not the first to fall but I hope you're the last
Once you leave me here there's no coming back
Stay with me my child I will raise you as my own
My own

Refuse to let it take you
Like it took all the rest
The nightmare too familiar
Replays 'till nothing's left
Why wrap your heart into peril
When we can hide away
Refuse to let it take you
Refuse to let it take you
So won't you stay
So won't you stay

I want to keep on protecting your soul
And if you let me I'll keep you safe
These ruins they can turn into our home
Please turn back now it's still not too late

But if you keep on down this dangerous path
I can't shield you from their burning wrath
Stay with me my child I will raise you as my own
My own

Refuse to let it take you
Like it took all the rest
The nightmare too familiar
Replays 'till nothing's left
Why wrap your heart into peril
When we can hide away
Refuse to let it take you
Refuse to let it take you
So won't you stay
So won't you stay

Rest your head my child
And just stay a while
There is no rush
Close your eyes and sleep
Hope your dreams are sweet
Like butterscotch

Refuse to let it take you
Like it took all the rest
The nightmare too familiar
Replays 'till nothing's left
Why wrap your heart into peril
When we can hide away
Refuse to let it take you
Refuse to let it take you
So won't you stay
So won't you stay

Stay
Stay
Won't you stay
Stay

As soon as I was done singing, I could hear everyone clapping and cheering for me. Then I heard Master Makarov say something.

"Encoure!" Master cheered.

"Well," I said, turning towards Gajeel. "Ready for our duet?"

"I guess," Gajeel said, grabbing the second microphone.

"Hey Levy?" I asked. "Can we do What Hurts the Most by Rascal Flatts? Please?"

"Sure, n/n," Levy said, pulling up the next song. "Hey, everyone! Y/n and Gajeel are going to do a duet together!"
