Move to the beat
Lucy P.O.V.
My last day of summer vacation at Magnolia and my best friend Levy is begging me to go to the beach. This was not actually the kind of thing I wanted to do on my last day. My dad has a late meeting till the evening so that gives me the chance to stay here late.
So here we are walking on the beach with little miss ' i wanna go to the beach' right next to me. I wear my pink bikini and damp shorts, as a group of guys pass us. Levy smiled at them, gaining their attention. I hit her soft on her head.
"the hell is that for Lucy?" the guys were gone , they walked in one of those stores at the boardwalk.
" Levy, this is my last day and I'm at the last place where I want to be! Can't we do something fun? Oh and PS : stop trying to get some attention from boys"
" okay you can choose an activity " I happily smiled , took her hand and ran to the boardwalk. There we entered a building. They have this awesome arcade games. I walk to the shooting game and insert a coin.
"Come on , Join me! I can't kill the dark knight alone!" she rolled her eyes. Levy doesn't like video games or any game at all. She likes to read. I also like that but video games are just really awesome.
Levy also inserts a coin and the game starts. We stand in front of a giant castle full of monsters controlled by the dark knight. The castle is made of different floors. Every floor has a new challenge. Every floor is harder than the one before. There is a total of 100 floors. At the last floor you meet the dark knight. Nobody knows how to defied him, hell nobody ever came that far to actually try to beat him.
After 75th floor my stamina almost runs out. I tried to save Levy but she died at the 43th floor. Now I was standing alone against more than 70 monsters in front of me ready to kill me while I'm dying. One of them jumped and I die.
"DAMNIT! I almost beat my record !" I sigh frustrated and Levy giggles at me. This feels nostalgic. A group of laughing /yelling girls passes us. They are obviously excited about something. They run to the side of the boardwalk. Then they disappear behind the wall.
There is probably some event at the moment. On the board walk are usually live shows, concerts, singers, dancers, people who think they can do magic tricks.
" Hey Lu what do you think it will be this time?" Levy pulled my arm so we could walk outside the arcade.
" I don't know maybe a monkey who has a strange hat and dances like just being drugged?" I mumbled. There is a nice warm breeze outside that brings my hair to tangle.
The board walk is crowded with many girls. I look behind to see another group of girls running this way. " What the heck is going on?" I ask no one I particularly.
We walk in the same direction all the girls were going to. The farther we go the more I wanted to go back. The closer we got , we heard the music.
"Levy Look!" I poke her. On the board walk was a giant circle . Many girls were standing around something . They are all cheering , drinking and dancing.
Levy grabs my arm pushes the two of us to the front to see what was going on.
"Is it a band?" I ask because I couldn't see what was happening. Levy pushed another girl out of the way and I saw it. There was a girl who had beautiful long red hair , along with a girl who had blue hair and also dressed up in blue clothes, a guy with dark spiky hair who doesn't have a shirt on and a handsome guy with pink hair. Although the pink hair looked a bid weird he still was gorgeous.
" I don't think they are a band Lu. There are no mic's or instruments." I scanned the place and she's right. But they had one thing I common . They have this weird symbol on their skin.
The girl with red hair grabbed a mic. " Okay Are you guys ready?" All the girls screamed. Next to us were a couple of friends arguing who was hotter of the boys, and that the 2 girls were o so lucky to hang around them.
My phone vibrated and I look at the ID . " Levy it's my dad I've got to take this!"
"Dancers" She mumbled.
"Hello?" I yelled trough the phone the music was just getting harder.
" Wait, Okay I'm at theā¦.." I want to turn around and walk to some place quiet but someone grabs my arm and my phone falls on the ground. I yelped and the next thing I knew is that I was standing in the circle in front of the pink haired guy who dragged me into one of his dance moves. I meet his onyx eyes and he smirks while doing another dance move. Standing there was awkward so I turn around meeting Levy's eyes while she was yelling something.
"Do something ! Don't just stand there like an idiot ! DANCE !"
The two guys were done and walks to the crowd for more shears while the two girls were in the middle doing a synchronic moves. They mimic each other . I turn to them watch as they do their moves. I memorize their difficult moves and started to dance sync with them.
The red head looks at me in disbelieve, and then she smirked. She did a couple of moves followed by some flips. I look at the bluette and then before I knew it I do the same moves and flips.
I look back at the bluette , she starts do to some moves as she huffs. Of course I copy them.
Then the song comes to an end. I do a final flip but fell . The people around the circle walked away. The event was over and Levy run up to me.
"Since when can you dance?" She ask in excitement. She gave me a hand to stand up.
" I ..I always could." I murmured . I walk to my phone that was still lying on the ground.
"Come Levy I have to go" I grab her arm to walk away and feeling several pair of eyes looking at us.
"hey w-wait up!" A boy called. It was the boy who dragged me into that stupid dance. We walk away . Away from their eyesight.
" H-hey Lu why did you walk away ,Natsu wanted to talk to you!" Levy ask as we enter the Lobby of the hotel.
"Wait you know these guys?" I watch her in disbelieve As we waited for the elevator to come down.
" Yeah they are in the same school as me. "
As we enter my room my suitcases were already packed and ready to go. " Look, I have no deal with them nor with dancing anyway I have to go to Mira . My father is going to pick me up there." Levy helps me with carrying my luggage.
As we finally arrive at Mira's bar we walk up to her. "Hi, Levy, Lucy!" She looks at my luggage and looks sad.
"You know I'm gonna miss you!" She hugs me and then serves our drinks.
"You know Lucy danced today !" Levy bragged " She was really awesome she got dragged in a performance with Natsu."
Mira raised her eyebrow
" Look it was just a performance can we forget about it and besides-"
Levy cut me off " No, You got pulled in by Natsu and you were so good and he wanted to talk to you afterwards! Why didn't you?"
Mira smiled" Wait you just walked away from Natsu? How could you ! He's your Soul mate!"
"What are you talking about? I don't even know the guy." I exclaimed.
" But if Natsu was wanting to talk to you afterwards you must be interesting for him!"
I just sighed as I get a text from my dad. "Okay guys I got to go the car is almost here." I walk outside the bar with Levy and Mira behind me.
A black car pulled over and stepped out.
"Lucy Heartfillia ?" He asks " Yeah that's me." He walks to my side and take my luggage. I help him getting everything in the back of the car when I saw a girl with blue hair falling down.
" Hey! You okay?" I bend down to see if the girl was okay. She just has a wound on her knee.
"Let me help you with that." I help her up and put her on the trunk of the car. I open my bag to pick some disinfectant and a bandage.
"What's your name sweetie?" I ask to distract her a little from the pain.
"I'm Wendy, and you are?" she asks shyly back. I cover the wound with a bandage and it's ready.
"I'm Lucy , voila it's all done! So where are you heading?" I close my bag and help Wendy of the trunk. Levy gives Wendy a glass of water.
" I lost my brother so I came here to find Mira. She can help me find him."
"WENDY!" A guy from behind yells.
She steps aside to see her brother running her way.
They hug each other " I thought I'd lost you! What happened?" The guy whispered as he looks at her knee.
"It's okay I fell and Lucy helped me." She giggled.
As they broke the hug he saw me standing and of course I recognized him. It was the same idiot who dragged me into that stupid dance event.
" Hey! You were the girl who danced with us!" He said in excitement. He has a big toothy grin on his face. " I'm Natsu Dragneel, thanks for helping my sister!"
" I'm Lucy heartfillia and it's no big deal. " I show a little smile.
"Lucy we have to go now." The chauffeur demanded. " Okay I'll be there in a sec!" I ignore Natsu and walk up to Levy and Mira.
" I'm gonna miss you guys!" I give them a tight hug and then I stepped away.
" Wait Lucy, the way you danced earlier , that was so amazing! How did you mimic Erza en Juvia's moves without knowing the routine? " Natsu asked
"I just have a really good memory, it's easy to remember the steps and then predict the next one." I felt a little uncomfortable because actually my dad doesn't know I dance so I don't like to talk about it.
" Okay then , I want you to join Fire beat!" He said and crossed his arms.
" Wait fire- what?" I ask shyly.
Everyone sweat dropped " How come you don't know the most famous dance crew?"

Ellie says: Hii , I thought let's do something different and make a dance fic ^^ Well the idea isn't originally mine actually . Once I read a dance fic. I think it's called rythm? I don't know anymore and I was inspired by that.
Tell me what you think ^^
