Here is another Nalu oneshot I based off of the following prompt! I hope you enjoy!

"I'm in my apartment trying to sing all the parts of this musical number and i was pretty sure that these wall were thick except now you are singing too and we are having a duet together!? WHAT?"


Natsu stepped into the shower with a relaxed sigh. His work day was long, and incredibly busy to say the least. Any day with around three fires in a span of 3 hours was a busy day. Especially since there wasn't many people on hand today, himself being one person on call. He had planned on spending the day playing the new beta of Battlefield that had just released, only to get called out as soon as it finished downloading.

However a job was a job, people needed him and he was going to do everything in his power to help them. Not to mention the money was a necessity to keep the roof over his head, and it was his job that also provided him with the ability to buy the damn game in the first place.

Sitting under the blazing hot water coming from the shower head he groaned in delight with how it felt against his skin. It traveled down his body, washing away the grime from running back and forth. One house fire had flames bursting through its windows, smoke completely darkening the sky above, and a child trapped inside. Luckily he was the guy who wasn't afraid of fires and rushed into the house, finding the child and throwing his own protective gear on him to protect him from any other harm. Ash was always on his skin, and if it wasn't for being a pyromaniac he could blame a few burn marks on his arms and hands from being on the job too.

He sighed again, loudly this time, at how nice the water was and closed his eyes, enjoying the pressure against his aching muscles. With a smirk he dried his hand on a towel and shuffled the playlist on his phone. Seeing as he was going to be in here for a while washing away the grime, he might as well play some tunes.

As if the Gods were giving him a break, his favorite song was the first to play. He began to tap his foot, feeling the rhythm pound in his chest as the heavy guitar and drums began the song. With his hands in his hair washing the soot from it, he prepared for the verse, feeling the lyrics come naturally to him like breathing itself.

"Target on my back

Lone survivor lasts

They got me in their sights

No surrender no

Trigger fingers go

Living the dangerous life

Hey, hey, hey

Everyday when I wake

I'm trying to get up, they're knocking me down

Chewing me up, spitting me out

Hey, hey, hey

When I need to be saved

You're making me strong, you're making me stand-"

"Never will fall, never will end" The song continued for a few seconds while his mind processed the voice coming through the wall.

There was no way someone was singing too.

The walls were thick, at least he thought they were seeing as no one ever complained about his electric guitar but, he could have sworn he heard a woman's voice from the other side. He continued singing easily, waiting for another part to hit for a female voice to verify his suspicions before he began to believe he was going crazy.

"You make me feel invincible

Earthquake, powerful

Just like a tidal wave

You make me brave

You're my titanium

Fight song, raising up

Like a roar of victory in a stadium

Who can touch me cause I'm-"

"I'm made of fire"

"Who can stop me tonight"

"I'm hard wired"

"You make me feel invincible"

"You make me feel invincible"

"There is a girl!" Natsu shouted out loud.

A shocked squeak came from the other side of the wall where Natsu had heard the first sound of the woman's voice. She was singing his song with him and she didn't just sing it, she harmonized with him. It was exhilarating at the same time as weird, seeing as the woman must be directly next to him for him to hear her.

Instead of stopping, he continued easily, singing through the rest of the song and listening to the woman pick up where she was needed. She missed a verse most likely because she was embarrassed but seemed to continue when he made it clear it didn't bother him. And it didn't, to be honest he had never imagined the woman would be singing this song next door to him. From the few times he had seen her she was wealthy, at least wealthier than he was. He had often heard a lot of classical music from right outside her door when he passed by, but never when he walked into the apartment. Perhaps it was only here where the walls were weak?

He quickly finished up his shower, feeling the need to formally introduce himself to the mysterious woman next door to him. She seemed to have enjoyed their little duet as much as he did. With hurried hands he grabbed the closest shirt, the one with a ferocious red dragon and a pair of comfortable dark blue jeans before bounding out of his apartment.

He didn't even hesitate to knock on the door, giving it a simple three knocks before waiting impatiently, his hands tucked into his jeans, and his bare foot tapping on the floor in the same familiar tune. He could hear the familiar voice curse a few profanities and a few objects falling to the floor as the footsteps came closer to the door. The woman gasped, probably looking through her peephole to see him standing there, clothes just thrown on, and hair still wet. He heard the chain lock release and the blonde beauty emerge from the other side.

Her cheeks were flush with a gorgeous pink blush that covered her soft cheeks and her brown expressive eyes downcast. He could have guessed she was beautiful from the side profiles he had caught every now and again, but he didn't think she was well...gorgeous.

She clutched the door strongly in her small hands before muttering a small hi.

"H-Hey…" he replied back weaker than intended.

He just remained there, staring at the woman in disbelief. He would never have imagined she listened to that kind of music, but it was clear as day from her dripping wet hair and makeup less face that she had just came out from the shower herself. Maybe that was why he could hear her! The acoustics in the bathroom were the best, and it was where he often played his guitar, or at least just outside. Had she heard him play his guitar too then?

"U-uhm can I help you?" She asked softly, albeit with some nerves mixed in.

Natsu didn't even think twice. He had to get to know this girl. "Do you want to come over for dinner?"

Her brown eyes widened at the suggestion, but after examining his face she must have seen nothing threatening in his eyes because she relaxed almost immediately. She smiled softly, sending his heart racing against his chest at the brilliance of it. She nodded, tucking a wet strand of hair behind her ear before laughing. "Should I make some dessert?"

He couldn't stop the ridiculously large smile from spreading across his face. "Hell yeah! And bring that guitar of yours over too!"

She froze in shock but realized that he had a clear view of her living room with being at least a half a head taller than her. She laughed happily, "Okay. I'll be over a little later then...uhm?"

Natsu turned his gaze away from the bright blue colored electric guitar decorated with stars back to the owner. "Natsu Dragneel. Sorry I haven't introduced myself."

The woman held out her hand, shaking his own warm one and smiled with that attractive blush. He could tell immediately that his life was going to be different after this, that for once fate had thrown him someone who didn't want to fight all the time, or talk about books until ears fell off. This time he knew he was going to make a great friend, a best friend.

"Lucy Heartfilia. It's nice to meet you Natsu."
