Mwah~

Laxus sighed and slumped further onto the bar as he watched her walk by, not even really taking notice of him. She just kept on walking over to the other guy. The one he wanted to be right now. He sighed again and looked away from the white haired female when he saw her giggle at something he'd said.

Lucy noticed her friends distress and patted him on the back as she saw Lisanna talking to Loki. "Aw don't get so down in the dumps, I heard she has a crush on you Laxi." Lucy smiled reassuringly at her friend.

Lucy and Laxus had been friends since middle school, they were now in high school with Laxus being a year ahead of Lucy. Laxus had been nursing a crush on the youngest Strouss sibling for a few months now, and her constant flirting with Loki wasn't helping his sour mood lately. "Come on Laxi-poo, we'll be late for band practice." Lucy hopped off the bar stool at their favorite diner, Fairy Tale, and awaited her friend to do the same.

Time Skip

Laxus and Lucy arrived a few minutes late, as usual, at Grey's house fro their rehearsal. The band was made up of four people: Grey, who played the bass, Natsu, the drummer, Laxus, the electric guitar, and Lucy as the lead singer.

"Come on guys, couldn't you be on time for once? Today's important, we've got a gig next Friday and someone coming by that wants to try out. Now hurry up and get ready." Lucy turned to Laxus and mocked Grey as he berated them.

Once they were all seated, awaiting the new arrival, Natsu came in from the kitchen and sat and started stuffing his face. "So when is Juvioli supposed to be here?" Natsu spat crumbs everywhere as he spoke."

"It's Juvia and she should be here"- the doorbell rang-"right now." Lucy smiled as she jumped up and opened the door, expecting another rocker chick like herself but stopped as she noticed Juvia's strange get up.

"U-uh hello." Juvia bowed and blushed, obviously nervous. "Juvia is here to try out for the band 'Magic Wreckers'." Lucy slowly nodded and let her in then sat back behind the table and cleared her throat.

"Well.. uh… what do you play?" Lucy smiled encouragingly, trying to give her the benefit of the doubt.

"F-flute."

All four existing band members shared a look and sweat dropped.

"I'm not sure you're quite cut out for our genre of music Juvia."

As son as Grey started speaking Juvia locked on his every word and started blushing profusely.

"I-If Grey-sama would let me demonstrate, you may be wrong." Juvia smiled and then took out her flute.

…..

Natsu was awestruck. Lucy was gleeful. Grey and Laxus were confused. They were all convinced she was a rock star and that their band needed that funky flute, no matter how strange the player.

"Welcome aboard Juvia!"

Once everything clamed down, they got right to rehearsing for their gig.

Friday at school, a week before the gig.

Laxus was in the hallway after school hanging up posters to advertise their band. Lucy had created them and printed them. They were all bright colours, with short and to the point information in big letters. He'd already seen quite a few kids checking them out in the hallways so he guessed Blondie knew what she was doing.

He looked around for where to hang the next one when he saw Lisanna checking out one of the posters. Taking a deep breath, he walked over.

"Hey Lisanna."

"Oh, hi Laxus." She smiled at him, causing him to get even more nervous.

"I-I was won-wondering if you w-were going to that concert next week. Y-ya know with all the bands playing?"

"Oh, I was just reading about it actually, I might go with a couple friends."

Laxus swallowed hard. "Th-that's cool. M-Maybe I'll see you there." He smiled awkwardly then quickly walked away to hang more posters. Lisanna giggled.

"How adorable," she mumbled to herself.
