Lucy's PoV

When we run back into class, we are all breathing a little heavier than normal. "That woman scares the hell outa me." Levy sits back on her regular desk. "Yeah. How did she get a teaching job away? She seems to hate every human on this planet." I giggle. "I heard she was a school mate of Gramps. Maybe there were a thing?!" Juvia squealed. "Surprisingly, I don't see them being together, but love forms in many different ways." Levy giggles, making us all laugh with her. "Oh no. They were a couple." Mira interrupts us. "WHAT?!" We all scream. "Yeah. They dated for quite a lot in high school, but I don't think they could stand each." Mira chuckles. "REALLY?!" We scream again. "Hey Looney. What's with all the shouting? Are you alright now?" The new kids come up to us. "I'm fine. And my name's Lucy." I scowl before answering. "Wow you're rude. After he carried you all that way." The Raven one said. "He's the reason it happened." I mumbled, saying my thoughts aloud. "You can't blame him for what's wrong with you." He grunted again. "What did you say!? Monkey!" Levy stood up instantly, trying to get in his face. "Woah. Lev calm it down." Juvia pulled it back. "I'm sorry. Gary, was it?" I stand up to his. "This names Gray. If you weren't so blonde, you might actually be able to think of something smart." Gray retorted. "That's it!" Juvia rolled her sleeves up and almost ran up to him. Ersa had to hold her back. "Alright Mr Gray. How about we treat you to a little game?" I lean on one leg and put my hand under my chin. "What would that be?" The blue haired one asked. I looked at the other girls and they nodded. "We'll be holding a little... Show, at lunch. If you can get a performance ready by then, we'll see what happens. Deal?" I put my hand out to Natsu. "You're on. What time's lunch?" At the second he finished his sentence. "Now." I smirked and we ran out with the rest of the class.

After everyone in the room is out, we get to planning. "Okay men! We can do this!" I command, turning from the door and to my band. "What song are we gonna do?" Gray asks. "Should we do choreography?" Jerral asks. "I'll get the instruments." Gajeel finally wakes up properly. "You won't be able to beat them." I familiar female voice says behind us. We turn to teach's desk and see Miss Strauss sitting there. "DIDN'T YOU LEAVE?!" We all scream. "Been here the whole time. And again, you don't stand a chase." She giggles. "And why would that be?" Jerral asks. "They have the advantage." She starts collecting her stuff. "Look, just because they've probably planned this out. Doesn't mean we won't be ready. Don't underestimate us, lady." Gajeel grunts. "That's your disadvantage." She states again, getting up. "Then, what is it?" I ask. "They're Fairy Heart." She states blankly before disappearing from our sights.

What does that supposed to mean?

As we're dashing from the main music room to the cafeteria, Levy and I get to talking. "Are you going to be able to do this? You know, because of you migraines." Levy thinks aloud. "I'll be fine. I can only faint once a day." I chuckle. "Great!" She squeals. "Now let's get this show started!" We all shout, putting our hands in the middle and pulling them up.

We run in and pug our instruments into the amps, that were already there. If you wanted to know, we all play our individual instruments. Levy plays the bass, and back up singer. Ersa the keyboard. Juvia plays the drums and I'm the lead singer and guitarist. The only reason Juvia plays the drums and not Ersa, is because she'll probably poke a hole through them, with her sheer strength, just like every other time she's played them. I should also point out that we all sing. I put the mic on its stand, my guitar slung around my neck, and started announcing ourselves. We do this often, so no body's really that surprised, except for Dragon Slayers, who I'm surprised are here. "Hit it Lev." I tell her and we begin.


Throughout the performance I go up to the students, and up to Dragon Slayers, I also go on the table, which I'll probably be told off by Gramps later today.

When we finish, Mira jumps up to where we are, takes the mic from me, and we put our instruments down. As we walk to our table, which everyone knows not to sit in, we pass Dragon Slayers. "Good luck, hot shot." I smirk, 'accidentally' hitting him with my shoulder. "We won't need it." Natsu smirks back. I chuckle at his ignorance and we go sit down.

When Lucy said 'hot shot', a wave of nostalgia waved came me. What is this feeling? Why do I feel so happy, yet upset at the same time? I think, looking at my shoulder that Lucy had nudged after she walked away. "Hey buddy. You ready?" Gray puts his hand on my shoulder. "I'm all fired up." I smirk and we begin our song.

As we sing, I here the girls squealing our names and guys pumping their fists in the air. I look over the the Fairy Heart table and see that, it looks like Lucy's about to cry. What's up with her?

Lucy's PoV

How dare he play that song! That was the song we made together! That imbecile! (Imbecile is my new favourite song XD.) I scream in my head as I watch her play and the audience scream. "Lucy. Are you okay?" Levy puts an hand on my arm. "Yeah, I'm fine. What would give you the idea that I'm not?" I ask her, maybe telling a little white lie. "It looks like you're about to cry." Juvia says worried. "Really?!" I gasp, now feeling that my eyes are pretty wet. "It's the song, isn't it?" Ersa looks from the stage to me. I nod my head lightly, Levy and Juvia instantly bear hug me. "It's going to be okay Lu. We're here for you." Levy whispers and I squeeze them back.

When Dragon Slayers finish, Mira calls us all up to see who won. "Who's for Dragon Slayers!?" She cries, lifting Natsu's arm in the air. The crowd goes wild and the applause metre, that had magically appeared out of nowhere, goes almost to the top. "And the Fairy Hearts!?" Mira pulls my hand in the air. The audience goes completely crazy and the metre goes off the scale. "Well I guess that's, that?" I smirk, turning to Natsu. "Wha-What. How could we loose?" Gray whines. sweet dropping. "It was a pleasure to perform against you. Maybe we'll be able to perform with each other one day?" We shake hands.

Before I could reply, my friends grab my hand and we run back to our table.
