I own nothing. :D

Jump Then Fall

The sun streamed happily inside Fairy Tail. It was just another day at the guild. Gray was stripping, Juvia was fainting; Cana was drinking, Levy was talking to Gajeel, Wendy was smiling at Happy's attempts to give Charle the fish he caught and so on.

Lucy sat at the guild's counter looking pretty bored. On her right side sat the ever oblivious Natsu eating a torch and in front f her, who was busy polishing the glasses, was Mira. Mira looked closely at Lucy and smiled.

"Lucy, you look beat today. Is there anything wrong?" Mira asked as she placed the now polished glass on one of the shelves behind her. She glanced behind her just to see the blond raise her head at the question. By this time, Natsu was at his second torch.

Lucy looked at the Boy behind him then sighed; a small smile crept on her face as she turned to face Mira before hitting her forehead on the innocent counter and began to ramble about how Natsu woke her.

"I was having the best dream." Lucy started. "Just when I heard someone call me too. And when I figured out who that was." – Lucy glared at Natsu who was already at his 6th torch – " A certain person broke in. When I looked at the clock" – She glared once more at the obtuse boy beside her and sighed animatedly – " It was only 4:00 in the morning!" She finished, again attacking the innocent counter with her forehead. Natsu stopped eating his 13th torch and looked at her.

" Lucy, are you feeling weird again?" Natsu simply asked the blond while Mira shook her head. She turned to look at Lucy and see what she could do.

"Tell me, what was your dream?" Mira asked, leaning forward. Lucy just stared back at her before blushing madly; her eyes seemed to go insane. Natsu stopped once more just to look at her.

She can look really cute if she wants to. He thought as a mischievous grin appeared on his face. Warren suddenly spoke up from the crowd.

"Hey everybody! I really think that Natsu's inlove with somebody!" He yelled at everyone who turned to look, except for Natsu who looked away. "I can hear Natsu thinking that 'She can be really cute if she wants to' to one of the girls here." Warren announced everybody muttered at the odd situation before returning back to what they were previously doing. Mira glanced at the salmon-haired boy who decided to finish his 23rd torch before turning to look at Lucy, who sighed when she figured out that Mira would press her.

"Well," Lucy looked at the ceiling and touched her lower lip while trying to remember. " I was dreaming that I was getting married. I couldn't see his face or his hair 'cause a flower was covering it but he was dressed nicely. And when he said my name he sounded just like.." Lucy glared at the pink haired teen beside her. Mira simply chuckled and walked to the back, leaving Lucy in deep thought. Could it be that she'll marry her beloved nakama? Sure she's turning nineteen in a week or so.

Natsu looked at Lucy at gave her a grin, fire can be seen in his mouth. Lucy looked at him before sighing, again.

"I think I've had enough." Natsu said, rubbing his stomach. Lucy sighed. Anyone who could eat 36 torches would sure be full, when you translate it, 18 helpings of food.

The salmon haired boy blinked at her. She seemed to be spacing out. "Lucy, are you sick?" He asked. Lucy was still dazed and didn't answer him. This was already worrying him. He turned to look for help, only to find Lissanna beside him. She winked playfully at him and whispered something in his ear that made him blush. The white haired girl grinned.

"Go give it a try." She said, gently pushing the boy with the salmon colored hair and face towards the spaced out blond. Natsu blinked thrice and moved closer, until their faces were an inch apart.

"Lucy." He said, his breath whispered in her face, behind him Lissanna ran off giggling. And for once lucy snapped out. Upon seeing the dragon slayer this close to her, she doesn't know whether she should slap him or lean forward. Before she decided to see on what he would do, only to find his face turn the same color as his hair. Think Lucy! How can you get out of this mess? Think!

To be honest, Mira felt sorry for her two friends who can't share their feelings. She walked up to the stage and decided to get everyone's attention.

"Mina!" She called out. More than eighty eyes looked at her, including Natsu and Lucy, who both gave her a grateful smile. She grinned. This will be hilarious. "Everyone, Lucy will sing a song for us today!" She announced, her grin growing wider as the entire guild cheered. Lucy's Jaw simply dropped.

Natsu grinned at her. "Good luck Luce." Mira smiled at the two as Natsu practically dragged her up the stage. Lucy growled at Natsu and asked her what song. She obviously had no choice with such popular demand. Mira smiled. This was getting better and better.

"You'll be singing.." Mira said while whispering something to the bird band. The creatures nodded and started to play. "Natsu, you stay on stage." She ordered, causing the two to flinch. She looked at Lucy.

"Sing with action. Use Natsu as your prop if needed." She told Lucy and gave her Erza's or else look. Lucy's face dusted itself with pink and so did Natsu's. Mira was making it hard for her alright. Lucy blinked twice and proceeded to sing, twitching at the lyrics. The spotlight zoomed in on her and Natsu. She sighed and moved her body to the beat, He just tapped his foot.

I like the way you sound in the morning
We're on the phone and without a warning
I realize your laugh is the best sound I have ever heard

Natsu grinned at her, asking a secret question that she nodded to. She grinned and continued.

I like the way I can't keep my focus

She said as she shook her head as if trying to focus

I watch you talk you didn't notice
I hear the words but all I can think is we should be together

She grinned fondly at her best friend, who in turn, entwined her hands with his. There were whistles and catcalls from her guild mates as he practically wrapped her with one arm.

Every time you smile, I smile
and every time you shine, I'll shine for you

She turned around to face him with a fond smile. He grinned at her. She turned back to her guild mates, grabbed the mic with both hands and swayed to the beat.

Whoa oh I'm feeling you baby
Don't be afraid to jump then fall, jump then fall into me

Baby, I'm never gonna leave you,
Say that you wanna be with me too
Cause I'm gonna stay through it all so jump then fall

At the last word, Natsu pulled her too close for comfort. Their faces inches apart. She grinned and he showed her his infamous canine grin. She gently pulled some of his bangs over his face as he frowned and returned his hair to their original style.

Well, I like the way your hair falls in your face
You got the keys to me I love each freckle on your face, oh,

She turned away from him and tossed him her keys while pulling away. She silently asked her keys to do a specific job.

I've never been so wrapped up,
Honey, I like the way you're everything I've ever wanted

She turned to face him as he went forward and strapped her keys onto her belt.

had time to think it oh-over and all I can say is come closer,
Take a deep breath and jump then fall into me

She once again grabbed the mic, but a strong arm snaked around her waist, pulling her close. He grinned broadly, she smirked. This is gonna be fun.

Every time you smile, I smile
and every time you shine, I'll shine for you

She turned to face him. The mic was the only barrier between them, minus the point five centimeter space between their faces and the mic.

Whoa oh I'm feeling you baby
Don't be afraid to jump then fall, jump then fall into me

She pulled away, but still held his hand. Whistles could be heard from the crowd. She could see Erza and Gray nod to each other in agreement. She turned to face Natsu, but it looks like she didn't need to. Holding both her hands and the mic, he cut her off and began to sing the rest of the chorus.

Baby, I'm never gonna leave you,
Say that you wanna be with me too
Cause I'm gonna stay through it all so jump then fall

She gently shook her head as if to say 'I know that already, you idiot'. He just grinned at her as she continued to sing the rest.

The bottom's gonna drop out from under our feet
I'll catch you, I'll catch you
When people say things that bring you to your knees,
I'll catch you
The time is gonna come when you're so mad you could cry
But I'll hold you through the night until you smile

He raised a brow at her in confusion. His eyes asked her if she just meant what she sang. Lucy grinned at him and nodded. His grin returned to his face, this time, pink dusted itself on him.

Whoa oh I need you baby
Don't be afraid please
jump then fall, jump then fall into me

His face was being blocked by the mic. His uneasy breathing can be heard through it. This will be exciting alright.

Baby, I'm never gonna leave you,
Say that you wanna be with me too
Cause I'm gonna through it all so jump then fall

She gently grinned at him and vice versa. She lowered the mic by an inch.

Jump then fall baby
Jump then fall into me, into me

Every time you smile, I smile

By now the mic was below her chin. Their voices mixed together, it's melody was filled with joy.

and every time you shine, I'll shine
And every time you're here Baby, I'll show you, I'll show you
you can jump then fall, jump then fall, jump then fall into me, into me

Yeah

She stopped singing and looked straight at the pink-haired-and-faced dragon slayer. She grinned. Obviously, they had the same face color right now. Their attention was caught when the entire guild erupted into cheers, whistles, catcalls and squeals. She could see Mira and Erza grinning at each other. Just by reading their mouths, she could say that they were pleased. She glanced back at Natsu who gently pulled her off the stage.

Once off, the rest greeted her with smiles and hugs. She hoped that she looked as fine as she could say she was, but she wasn't sure. The dragon slayer held her hand the whole time.

~five minutes later~

Mira and Lissanna were singing a song about the seasons when Natsu came to sit beside Lucy at the bar counter. She looked at him and smiled.

"Hey."

"Hi." He grinned. His dark eyes were playful. "I'll get you for that." He said as a small, happy growl escaped from his lips.

She looked at him, trying to process what he meant until she finally understood. Her face flushed and she began to stutter a no, putting her hands in front of her as defense. Just her luck though. A certain feline flew overhead, Screaming "You liiike him!"

She sighed. This was going nowhere, she should at least call it a day and get home.

Meh, I suck. But this is the first time I've posted something like this. Anyways, thanks to . Please review. And tell me what and how do you think Natsu will respond in the 2nd chapter. Click this:
