Chapter 5

Then

? ゚ヤᄎ

Lucy got a new outfit because of the drink spill on her previous outfit. Natsu is loving the outfit and then they went back onto stage. The band played a really awesome song and the crowd went crazy wanting more.

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

Another instrumental break with everyone playing

Day for the dead

To dance among the living

Day for the dead

To dance among the living"

Everyone went crazy for the song and the girls on the side were ecstatic. The song was amazing. As the stage dimmed so the band could quickly run off stage so they can take off the outfits the crowd grew louder and louder. Natsu stopped by Lucy for a quick smile and then went back onto stage.

Now

? ゚ヤᄎ

Natsu smiled at the audience as they were going crazy wanting more. Looking over at his band mates he nodded and said 'one more for them' they all nodded and headed back to their "stations" to get ready for the next song. The curtain went back up from just recently being lowered.

Natsu walked up to the microphone and acapella'd the beginning with a single note being held as he started

(Natsu:) Had lips like candy

(All joined in:) Hair floated like water

Skin like velvet made

The whole damn world slow down

She was a preacher's daughter

Never did what daddy taught her

And the rebel in her soul

Brought her to me

The guitar started

(Natsu:)The river was cold

And the river was wide

She flowed from the mountain

Straight across the great divide

And her heart ran cold

But her love runs deep

She's fire on the mountain

Wrecking everyone she meets

She's like rain when she rolls in

But that sunshine in her thunder

Makes the loneliest heart wonder

If the ride is worth the pain

Might not be storm clouds in sight

Oh but don't you worry friend

She's coming around the bend

She's holding lightning in both hands

The guitar starts to strum more notes

(Natsu:) Lord please know

It's not time for me to go

The river has my heart

She's the keeper of my soul

On one side of the water

Sweet everlasting grace

The other side could end your life

Or steal your breath away

She's like rain when she rolls in

But that sunshine in her thunder

Makes the loneliest heart wonder

If the ride is worth the pain

Might not be storm clouds in sight

Oh but don't you worry friend

She's coming around the bend

She's holding lightning in both hands

As the instruments come back to do their "solo" Natsu has a sudden urge and runs off stage. He reaches the side stage where the girls are at and grabs Lucy's hand and pulls her onto stage with him. He then holds onto her tight and starts to move with the beat making her sway with him. He then picks up the microphone and starts to sing the last part.

She's a natural disaster

She'll tear the land in two

She's running to be running

Cause it's all she knows to do

She's a tumbleweed rolling

A river running wild

A hurricane blowing

She's the calm after the storm

Under an Appalachian sunset sky

All the instruments stop

(Natsu)She's like rain when she rolls in

(All join in)But that sunshine in her thunder

Makes the loneliest heart wonder

(Instruments startup) If the ride is worth the pain

Might not be storm clouds in sight

Oh but don't you worry friend

She's coming around the bend

She's holding lightning in both hands

She's like rain

She rolls in

But there's sunshine in her thunder

She's coming around the bend

She's holding lightning in both hands

~on the side stage~

"oh they are so amazing." Lucy smiles greatly as she sways back and forth to the song.

Levy smiles and nods as Erza and Juvia smile and sing with the boys.

There was people running everywhere getting ready to lower the curtains and to grab the instruments so that they can be packed up. The band was almost done with the song when Natsu showed up and pulled Lucy with him. She yelped and then stood rigidly next to him as he starts to finish the last few verse. After a few seconds of unconsciously swaying with Natsu she smiles and starts to enjoy being next to him feeling his warmth as it radiates off of him and wraps around her. She then starts singing along next to him as he finishes the last verse.

The crowd went wild and the curtain lowered for the last time. Natsu smiled brightly at Lucy and turned around to his band mates. "That was awesome guys. Yeah!" He high fived everyone and they all started off the stage. Erza and Juvia were already waiting for Gray and Jellal, so when they reached close to the side stage they rushed to them and hugged them tightly talking about how wonderful they were and that they were just so on beat with everyone else this concert. Loke walked behind the stage to look for Aries but Lucy could barely make out what was being said and going on as she kept finding her mind veering off to the certain singer that was still clinging to her side. She didn't even notice when Gajeel walked past her and lifted her best friend up and kissed her right on the mouth. She only focused when she heard her friend squeal in delight and hold him tightly. Smiling gently at her friend she thought, 'Oh that is way too cute. Go Levy!' She silently cheered.

Natsu smiled down at Lucy and tried to get her attention, when gently calling out her name didn't work he didn't think but instantly pulled her to his chest and gently tilted her head up to look at him. "Hey, Luce wanna go somewhere after all this stage stuff is done?" Luc nodded her head and blushed as she smiled up at him. "Good." Natsu then leaned down and kissed her gently at first but as she responded he deepened the kiss.

~After about 3 weeks~

All Lucy and Levy thought was 'This is gotta be a dream' as they walked around with their new boyfriends. They were both ecstatic and every day go to bed wishing that this dream would never end. And for them it didn't it just got better.
