Previously...

The sound of skin hitting skin could be heard.

I saved Lucy?

Nah.

I could see an incredible sight of Lucy stopping the blow on her own.

Natsu POV

"Now now, I was an invited guest, I assume you were too?" Lucy asked, cocking her head to the side, flickering her gaze to me.

Lisanna crosses her pale arms and looked to the side, making her short white hair whip. She shut her blue eyes and responded passively,

"Of course I was, I'm Natsu's girlfriend after all." Lisanna spat. "Uh Huh, I know, but I was invited because Wendy wanted me over and Natsu and I need to practice." Lucy explains.

Lisanna rolled her eyes and flared at the blonde headed girl. "Well, change of plans darling, Natsu's doing the talent show with me!" Lisanna smirked.

Lucy cocked an eyebrow and had painted on a smug smile. "Oh? Then you must know what he's going to be doing! Now tell me, what's your performance?"

Lisanna's smug smirk had turned into a face of panick and she quickly said the first thing that came to her mind.
"Piano!"

Lucy nodded and gave me a side glance. "Well, would you mind showing us your skills? Natsu is a very very talented musician in this instrument. Now, do you think you could keep up?"

"O-Of course I can! I bet I'm way better than you!"

Lucy clapped her hands together in glee. "Perfect! Let's go to the music room then! Since you're so confident in your skills, you should be just fine following after me."

Lisanna nodded angrily and stomped her way to the music room. I look over to Lucy to see that she's now carrying Wendy in her arms. She looks at me and gives me a smile.

I smile back and I swear I saw her blush. I swear! But, it left as quickly as it came so I had thought that I imagined it.

We finally reach the music room and Lisanna smirks. "Show me what you got bimbo."

I start shaking in anger and yell, "Wendy is here! If you want to stay in this house, you shut up! Or you get kicked out! You got that?! Oh wait, I forgot that you don't interpret smart talk!" But I only said it in my head, and no one could hear my shouts but me.

I simmer down as I notice Lucy covering Wendy's ears and I sigh in relief. I feel Wendy's arms wrap around me as Lucy walks up to the grand piano.

She goes to the shelf over to the side of the piano and gets out the binder labeled, "Classics"

"Hmm, this one!" She says as she sets the notes on the ledge of the piano and cracks her knuckles. "Lisanna, this is the level you need to be at to perform with Natsu." She smirks.

I take a glimpse at the title and gasp.

"La Campanella"

That was one of the hardest of not the hardest piano pieces to master. I had remembered, mom had always loved this piece and urged me to learn it, but it was too difficult. Lucy starts and I'm immediately mesmerized.

Wendy had clapped so loud I'm sure her hands were red. Lisanna was nervously scratching her neck as Lucy turned around. She smirked.

"Beat that Strauss."

Hahhh, it literally took me longer to find the perfect piano piece than writing the actually chapter...
