The One Who Sings


When you are

happy, you

enjoy the music.

But, when

you are sad,

you understand

the lyrics.


Lucy's POV

"C'mon! We gotta get you ready for the audition," Levy says, as she grabs my hand.

"L-Levy!" I shouted, as I followed behind.

"The others are waiting in your apartment!"

"Ugh..." I mumbled.

She ran, I followed, people looked. I couldn't believe that my friends will do this to me. From all of the people! Sure I can sing "good", but I don't want to audition for this band called "Fairy Tail", plus, it's a weird name... We stopped at a two story building, or, my apartment.

"Finally! Come on! We need to get you ready," Mira said.

I gulped, you could hear it echo through my mind. How am I suppose to get out of this trouble?!

We entered my apartment, only so Mira could grab my hand to the bathroom, followed by Levy, Erza, Wendy, and Juvia.

"H-Hey!"

"Sit," she commands.

I sit alright.

"Alright... I'll be doing the make-up. Juvia, you do hair. Levy, you choose a song for her to sing. Wendy, you choose what she's going to wear, and remember, nothing to flashy, yet boring. Erza... Err... You can eat your strawberry cake..." Mira explains.

"Yes!" Erza muttered, posing a 'victory pose'.

"Let's see..." Mira mumbles as she opened the drawer.

"Mira... Please nothing to exotic... Natural... please?" I begged.

"Sure!" Shen replied, grabbing a make-up brush.

~~30 minutes later...~~

"There! Done!" Mira says, as she fixes my outfit.

I could hear some gasps from my friends. I gulped, as Levy gets a large mirror.

I opened my eyes, seeing my outfit. I was wearing a white button up shirt, showing a bit of my lace bralette, with a purple skirt. There was also a beige sweater, around my hips. My hair was pulled up into a side pony tail.

"Whoa..." I muttered.

"Who knew you had great taste of clothing, Wendy!" Mira said, slapping Wendy in the back, making her tumble forward.

Wendy puffed. "Thank... you...?"

"Juvia is jealous of Lucy!" Juvia whined.

I chuckled. "Anyway, what song will I be playing...?"

Levy grinned. "It's a surprise."

My eyes grew big. "Oh..." I said.

My friends giggled as I sighed.


Natsu's POV

"Okay, kids, In about a hour, the auditions would start," our manager, Laxus said.

Everyone groaned.

"Stupid, Angel! She left us right 3 months before the concert!" Gajeel whined.

"Ugh... Can't believe her!" I shouted.

Laxus rolled his eyes at us. "Hopefully, we will find someone..." He muttered.

"This is going nowhere... If people we hired people, and the next day, they back up on us, we're practically doomed... Last time, it took about 5 days to hear a decent voice!" Jellal points out.

Laxus nodded, in defeat. "I understand your wrath but we need to find a singer ASAP!"

An idea pops in my head. I gave him a sly smile. "This is the 5 audition of the year, and who had to hear pretty bad voices within the year, so, I think it's only fair, you hear the people sing, so you could feel our frustration!"

Gajeel looks over at me, and gives my a grin. Gray, know, looks interested on where this is going. Jellal, he does what he does.

"W-Wha-"

"C'mon boss! You might hear a good voice!" Gray begged.

Laxus clears his throat. "I- Fine..."

We all cheered. we high-fived each other.


Lucy's POV

Mira stopped and parked the car.

"Whoa... That's a lot of people..." Juvia whispers.

"Yeah..." I mumbled.

"Don't be such a downer! C'mon! Let's cheer our friend!" Mira says as she head towards the building.

We got in line, waiting to register.

"Lighten up... Lucy..." Erza whispered to me.

"I hope..." I replied back.

I man in a black suit came to us, handing us a clipboard with papers. "How many people?"

"One," Mira replies.

"Friends?" He asks. Mira nods.

"Alright, you guys would go inside the theater and take a seat, while you," he says as he points at me, "fill out this paper form. When your done, go give this to the front, and get a piece of paper," He explains.

"Oh... Um.. Can I fill it out?" Levy asked.

"S-Sure...?"

Levy winked at me as she filled the paper. We went to the front after she finished. She handed me the number. "Number 32..." I mumbled. She gave me a last wink as she went inside, as I went backstage.

If I did the math right, each song is about 2-3 minutes times 32 is... I had to wait for... about one hour... Great...


Laxus's POV

I took a sit as the curtains reveal a girl, around her teen years, with blonde hair. I turned around to see the boys, but of course, they had their jaw drop to the floor, specially Natsu's. I chuckled.

I saw that she was looking around the theater, looking to a bunch of teens, probably her friends.

She hit the mic a few times, making sure it was working. "Uh... H-Hello... My name is.. L-Lucy... H-H-Heartfilia..." She stuttered, as she gave me her registration paper.

I chuckled. "Alright, you might begin..."

The music started to play, making my ears, wiggle. The boys looked impressed, which made me think that this girl wouldn't be too bad.


Lucy's POV

I scanned the room, looking at my friends, which gave me a thumbs up. I smiled.

When the music started, I was startled. LEVY!

Take away your things and go
You can't take back what you said, I know
I've heard it all before, at least a million times
I'm not one to forget, you know

I looked up at my friends again, squealing.

I don't believe, I don't believe it
You left in peace, left me in pieces
Too hard to breathe, I'm on my knees
Right now, 'ow

I'm so sick of that same old love, that shit, it tears me up
I'm so sick of that same old love, my body's had enough
Oh, (that same old love)
Oh, (that same old love)
I'm so sick of that same old love, feels like I've blown apart
I'm so sick of that same old love, the kind that breaks your heart
Oh, (that same old love)
Oh, (that same old love)

I looked down at the boys, jaws in the floor. I guess I was doing good? I closed my eyes.

I'm not spending any time, wasting tonight on you
I know, I've heard it all
So don't you try and change your mind
'Cause I won't be changing too, you know

You can't believe, still can't believe it
You left in peace, left me in pieces
Too hard to breathe, I'm on my knees
Right now, 'ow

I'm so sick of that same old love, that shit, it tears me up
I'm so sick of that same old love, my body's had enough
Oh, (that same old love)
Oh, (that same old love)
I'm so sick of that same old love, feels like I've blown apart
I'm so sick of that same old love, the kind that breaks your heart
Oh, (that same old love)
Oh, (that same old love)

I'm so sick of that, so sick of that love
I'm so sick of that, so sick of that love
I'm so sick of that, so sick of that love
I'm so sick of that, so sick of that love

I'm so sick of that same old love, that shit, it tears me up
I'm so sick of that same old love, my body's had enough
Oh, (that same old love)
Oh, (that same old love)
I'm so sick of that same old love, feels like I've blown apart
I'm so sick of that same old love, the kind that breaks your heart
Oh, (that same old love)
Oh, (that same old love)

The music stopped, making the audience silent. I opened up one eye, looking at everyone. "Was I really that bad...?" I mumbled.

15 more seconds in, someone, one of the boys, started to clap, it was a raven haired guy. One clap, two claps, and 200 claps. I smiled. I looked at my friends, who cheered the loudest.

"Huh... T-Thank... You... You may go know..." Their manager stated.

I headed backstage, feeling like I lost all of my breath. "Man! Singing is hard..." I thought to myself.


Mira's POV:

Yes! You go girl! Show them how you ca sing!

I looked over at Levy, who had a sly smile.

"You knew she enjoyed that song, huh?" I asked.

She giggled. "Yep!"

I rolled my eyes at her. I thought Lucy had the best voice from all of the people that already made, not just because she's my friend, but because it was true.


Laxus's POV

That took us by surprised... I looked over at them, who were, practically speechless.

"That girl has talent..." Gray said.

"What was her name?" Gajeel asked.

"Whoa..." Natsu said.

"And her, she knows how to sing!" Jellal nodded.

"Yes... You are right, but let's see some more..." I said, frustrated.

I wanted to be in our band already, but that wouldn't be fair for the other 100 people... In the end, I'll need an ear massage.


Words: 1630; I hoped you enjoyed! This is an edited version from my other one, with the same title, but I took it down...

By the way, the song is called, 'Same Old Love', by Selena Gomez
