Lucy couldn't stop laughing.

For real.

From the start of the video, she hasn't been able to stop. So much for a kind-of-professional, to be fangirling over someone's video.

But how could she not, when it was him on the screen?

She laughed at what he said, again, and she even had to pause it for a minute to calm herself down. It was not her first time doing so. She did it when she read, when she watched something, or when she did anything at all.

She had to stop, take a deep breath, and restart.

Though this time, she stopped a little longer. She'd paused it on the right moment: he was smiling sheepishly, an adorable blush on his cheeks, as he scratched his scarf adorned neck.

Sometimes she felt stupid for acting like that over a boy who wasn't a proper celebrity -he was just a boy who enjoyed uploading videos on YouTube.

And a boy who had a million subscribers, also.

Okay, so he was a kind of celebrity. There was no person on YouTube -or Tumblr or Twitter- that hadn't heard of him at least once.

Because FireDragonSlayer was someone who was well known. And Lucy was his fan.

His videos weren't serious. He didn't make charity projects nor analysis about shows or video games. He wasn't a critic nor a tutorial maker.

As Lucy had discovered, he only was a guy enjoying his life. Most of his videos showed that -a handful of random moments on his life, pranking his friends or doing weird stuff. Yes, he sometimes talked about his favorite animes -another reason why Lucy liked his stuff so much- and he answered a lot of questions his fans made him.

He was one of Lucy's favorite channels since the moment she created her own.

And Lucy was proud of her own achievements. Her channel, called CelestialSpirits had its five hundred thousand subscribers.

Her videos were about her talking about anime, shows, movies, mostly books. People said she was pretty funny, too. She still wasn't sure what had gotten her so many followers, but it filled her with warmth happiness every time she gained a new one, or someone liked her stuff.

She clicked the play button again, hugging her pillow to her chest.

If someone saw her like this, they'd think she was such a creep.

Screw them.

He was reading some random questions his subscribers made him now.

With those random questions, she'd learned his name was Natsu, he was seventeen years old, he liked to eat a lot and that he owned a blue cat named Happy.

"Your favorite food?" Natsu read on his own screen. He smiled happily, before shouting, "Of course it is super spicy chicken!"

Lucy coughed at that. Sometimes his replies were so… shocking. Maybe that's why he was so famous, too.

"How did you get Happy? Why is it blue?" Natsu read.

Ah, Happy's story was something Lucy always wanted to hear. Why the little, cute cat was blue was one of Lucy's biggest mysteries unsolved. Could she get what she wanted now?

"Ah," Natsu smiled, but it was so fake. Everybody could notice that. "My dad give him to me, and he's blue because I was a curious kid, I guess."

Lucy frowned, hugging the pillow closer. She tried not to dwell too much on his words, or his sad expression, but her trash mind didn't stop. She wondered who was his dad, or the exact reason why Happy's flurr was a beautiful shade of blue.

"If you could give advice to your followers, what would it be?" he read."Uh well, it's easy. Dragons are the good guys, not the princes. Don't let classic stories mess with your mind."

At this, Lucy couldn't help but laugh again. Oh, if only she had the courage to send him some questions. She didn't know why shyness took over her every time she went to his Tumblr and into his ask box.

She didn't follow him there. It would be meaningless, considering she barely used her Tumblr either. Only to share her newest videos, or to check if she had any asks too. She rarely reblogged stuff.

She liked using Twitter better. And YouTube, of course.

"Which are your favorites channels?" Natsu read, before chuckling.

Lucy's heart stopped.

"Oh, it's kinda difficult. I like, there are a lot of wonderful ones out there. Let's see… uh, I like TwinSlayers, Sting and Rogue are idiots. LittleSky is cool, Wendy's my favorite cousin after all. And so many more, like AnimalShifter, DemonGoddness, ScarletHair… But definitely the worsts are IronMetal and the bastards' IceMage."

Lucy's heart both laughed and sunk at the same time. She knew all the channels he mentioned, and they were brilliant too. Even the ones he didn't like, though she knew he said it because she's seen the three boys fighting.

But it hurt her somehow that he didn't know about her existence. She wasn't a phantom on YouTube…

"Oh, and I discovered one recently that's pretty cool too. And funny. It's CelestialSpirits." Natsu added.

Oh my God.

Almost instantly, Lucy's phone rang at her side, making her jump out of her state. Pausing the video, she grabbed it to see what she expected. A message from Levy.

Levy was her school friend, but gladly, Levy was a Youtuber too. They'd met after Levy commented on Lucy's video, and they became friends, chatting via Skype. After a while, they crossed paths on their school, recognizing each other for the first time. They became the best of friends.

"Did you see it?" Levy's message read.

Lucy excitedly typed back, "I'm dead."

"How does it feel that your crush noticed you? Lucky girl."

Well, her cheeks hurt for smiling so much. "Amazing,"

Though it made her feel kind of bad. She knew deep inside that her tiny friend found attractive the YouTuber named Gajeel, or, IronMetal. But since Levy didn't have much subscribers, Gajeel didn't even suspect about her existence.

Lucy related.

Until five seconds ago.

"I'm so happy for you, Lu!" Levy sent her. "Do you plan on thanking him on your next video?"

Lucy stopped to think about it for a second, but she shook her head, even though no one was seeing her.

"Nah," she texted. "He didn't subscribe to my channel, and if I do it'll look like a desperate fangirl of him. One of the thousands," she sighed.

"You're right, Lu, always so smart!" Levy sent back.

Lucy smiled, and dropping her phone to her bed again, she continued to watch the video to the end.

It was more of silly questions, and he replied to each one with an unexpected answer or a funny comment. When it finished, Lucy scrolled down to see the comments below.

"Natsu, slay me with that smile."

"You're always so funny XD"

"You look so hot~"

"Watch my videos!"

"Ah, I wish you were my boyfriend :s"

"You're awesome as always!"

"Nice video. It's always nice to know a little more about you. Thanks for liking my videos." This one was from Erza, or better known as ScarletHair.

Lucy closed her laptop. She didn't know why she read the other's comment when herself wasn't brave enough to say something. Even after he said that about her…

She bit her lip, smiling again. Her cheeks already hurt for doing so.

A knock echoed into her room, and she straightened up. "Come in," she called.

One of her maids entered, smiling politely at her. "Good evening, Miss Heartfilia. Your bath is ready."

Ah, for a moment she'd forgot about her real life. Of course she still was living in her empty, boring mansion, while thousands of maids worked around, her father secluded on his own office, working and working without end.

The whole reason why she'd created her own world on the internet.

"I'll go on a second," Lucy said, dismissing the blonde maid.

When the door closed again, Lucy sighed and grabbed her phone, checking her YouTube profile. Just some thumbs up on her latest video yesterday, but not the subscriber she wanted.

Maybe it still was a hopeless dream, after all.

Pursing her lips, she placed her cell phone in her nightstand, before exiting her room.

Someday, maybe...
