Song: Hey Juliet

By: LMNT

Okay, so I've been real busy and had a bit of block on what to write and how to write it. But I saw this MEP and fell in love with it so I typed this up. It's far from my best work and I know its kinda bare bones and real cheesy. But hey, its what I needed. And because I write so many shorts and am bound to write more I have decided to make this Fairy Tail shorts book! All prompts and feedback are welcome. Please, I mean it. I need prompts! Enjoy and give me a prompt! I'll give you a shout out if I use your prompt!

Natsu took a deep breath from his seat at the bar. Gray's hand clapped him on the back startling him out from his deep thoughts.

"You're gonna do fine, Flame Brain," Gray reassured him. "Just stick to the plan. Stick to what we practiced."

They both glanced back to Lucy, who sat by herself reading a book.

Mira rested a hand on both of their backs. "Calm down boys, practically the entire Guild is in on this plan you two came up with."

"You're right. I got this." Natsu nodded getting up and walking over to her. "I got this."

"Hey, Juliet," Natsu smiled sitting down in front of Lucy.

"Huh…" She looked up startled, having not fully heard him. "Oh, hey Natsu."

"I've been watching you," Natsu smiled.

"What?" Lucy asked.

"Every little thing you do."

"Natsu, that's kinda creepy," Lucy blushed.

"Every time I see you pass, especially when we're on an S-Class, makes my heart beat so fast."

"Natsu, are you feeling alright, you're talking crazy!" Lucy blushed holding the book up to her nose so he couldn't see.

"I've tried to ask you twice, but I see you roll your eyes," Natsu said sadly thinking of his last two attempts to ask her out. Only she thought that he was joking, and brushed her off rather snappily.

"Natsu," Lucy said worriedly. What was he talking about? What did he want now? Where the times he teased her, asking her out as a joke to mess with her feeling not enough? She liked him. A LOT. But he just didn't feel that way for her and she knew it. Making a bit… bitchy… towards him at times.

"Wish I could make it real," Natsu smiled at her.

Lucy remained silent, choosing to glare at him.

Natsu sighed. "But your lips are sealed, that ain't no big deal," He shrugged then perked up. " 'Cause I know you really want me. I hear your friends talk about me. So why you tryin to do without me? When you got me, where you want me?"

Lucy rolled her eyes and stood up. "Stop it Natsu, you know I hate it when you mess with me like this."

"Hey, Juliet!" Natsu yelled, catching her wrist as she walked away. "I think you're fine, you really blow my mind. Maybe someday, you and me can run away. I just want you to know, I wanna be your Romeo."

Lucy's eyes widened, then quickly narrowed. "I said quit it Natsu! I'm not in the mood for your pranks today."

Natsu looked worriedly to Gray and Mira while they pointed furiously at her as she began to walk to the door.

"H-hey Juliet!" Natsu yelled running in front of her and dropping to his knees to block her exit. "Girl you got me on my knees, beggin' please, baby, please. Got my best worst enemy saying-"

Gray popped up the side of Lucy startling her into dropping her book. "Hey, Juliet, why do you do him this way."

Lucy rolled her eyes at Gray to turn around and leave through the back door only to run face first into Natsu's chest. "Too far to turn around, so I'm gonna stand my ground. Gimme just a little bit of hope? With a smile or a glance, gimme one more chance?"

"They do say third time's the charm, don't they, Lucy?" Mira asked.

Lucy huffed trying to walk away only to have Natsu block her again. " 'Cause I know you really want me, I hear your friends talk about me. So why you tryin' to do without me? When you got me, where you got me?"

"Natsu-" Lucy huffed.

"Hey Juliet, I think you're fine, you really blow my mind. Maybe someday, you and me can run away! I just want you to know; I wanna be your Romeo!" Natsu tried harder, almost desperately.

"Natsu!" Lucy yelled exasperatedly. "Please, just stop. I get it, ha ha ha. Funny joke. You really got me. I actually thought for one minute that you could like me. Now can I go home and take a bath?"

Natsu blinked. She really thought he was joking? She looked so hurt so tied. He pulled her into a deep hug. "Hey Lucy," He whispered into her ear. "I think you're fine. You really blow my mind. Maybe someday, you and me can run away. I just want you to know; I wanna be your Romeo."

Lucy pulled back from the hug in utter shock. "I… do you really mean that, Natsu?"

Natsu gave her his trademark toothy grin. "Hey, Juliet!"

Lucy met his smile throwing her arms around his neck. "Oh, Natsu!" Her smile faded after a second. "Wait- have you ever actually read Romeo and Juliet?"

He scratched the back of his neck. "Well…. Uh… kinda… I got to the part where they fell in love and all that weird what's in a name crap then thought it was just perfect! They end up happily ever after right?"

Lucy blinked then smiled big at him. "Sure, Natsu, sure. But we will definitely have a happier ending."
