It's All About The Music

Chapter Four – Eye Twitches

I woke up to a series of buzzes coming from my phone. I lifted my head in annoyance and grabbed my phone. The bright light burned my eyes and I checked my messages.

Hey! It's past 11 and we decided to get here by 10!

"Oh crap! I overslept!" I shouted to myself as I grabbed some clothes and pulled them on. I didn't have time to brush my hair so I pulled it into a pony tail. I put my boots on and ran out the house. I skidded as I turned the corner to go the way to Lucy's house.

I ran up to Lucy's house breathless and knocked on the door. Lucy answered and grinned smugly at me.

"Overslept?" Her happy voice rang out. I glared at her still trying to catch my breath. This reminded me to much of yesterday. Lucy walked into her house and I followed her in, closing the door behind me. Her house was so big and luxurious; it was much bigger than my apartment. She took me to her massive garage which was slightly less luxurious than the inside. Natsu and Gray were sitting down on a massive couch. There was no car in the garage probably since there was a couch in there.

"She finally turns up!" Natsu said showing his toothy grin. Gray looked pissed off but he normally looks pissed off. "Cough up!" Natsu stuck his hand out towards Gray.

"I don't even care. It's only 5 bucks." Gray rolled his eyes and placed the money in Natsu's hand.

"You were betting on when I was going to turn up." I said angry with my eye twitching. I recently found out when I'm angry my eye starts to twitch.

"No. I bet that you would have your hair up since it would be messy if you had it down because you slept in." Natsu explained and I face palmed.

"Why would you even bet about something that stupid?" I said a bit less annoyed.

"It doesn't matter okay!" Lucy said grabbing hold of the handle to her garage. "Because we have…" She flung the garage open and my eyes widened. "Auditions to take place!" Lucy then turned to 'the massive line of people'. She looked confused.

There was a guy with black spiky hair was standing there. He was wearing black baggy pants and a maroon hoodie. My eyebrows were brought together at the top of my forehead. I stared at the boy standing there with disgust.

"Gajeel." I growled in a quiet voice. He walked into the garage uninvited. What's he doing here?

"Are you here to audition?" Lucy said smiling that at least one person turned up. Gajeel nodded his head and took his bass off his back. It was a wooden bass guitar that was painted the same colour as his jacket. The paint was flaking off at the sides. I've never seen a wooden bass before so I got transfixed on it.

Lucy tugged on my arm and I came back to reality. She pulled me down to the sofa and I crossed my arms.

"So can I have your name and year?" Lucy asked as she picked up her clipboard and pencil.

"I'm Gajeel Redfox, first year." He said in his gruff voice. Lucy jotted it down and nodded her head with a smile indicating that he can start to play

He cracked his knuckles and started to strum some notes. He was really good, for Gajeel. He started to play faster and faster. He went so fast I could barely see his hands move. He's the best bass player I've ever heard and his personality matches the basses! No I we can't just have him because he's good at playing, he has to prove he's a good person.

He stopped suddenly with his face still the same as it was before. Lucy smiled at him and made a group huddle.

"I don't know if that was good or not because I don't play guitar or anything like that, so was it good?" Lucy whispered.

"Yeah it sounded kind of low and nothing like Gray." Natsu said clueless.

"That's how it's supposed to sound" I whispered back in annoyance.

"It was amazing." Gray whispered in awe. I nodded my head slightly in agreement but pouting. Lucy broke the huddle and turned to Gajeel.

"Gajeel you've been accepted into Fairy Tail!" Lucy said smiling. My eyes widened. We never decided he would join!

"Welcome! I'm Natsu, I play the drums." Natsu said sticking his tongue out at Gajeel in a jokey manner.

"I'm Gray, guitarist." Gray said raising his hand slightly, he was obviously bored.

"I'm Lucy and I sing." Lucy said smiling happily. It was now my turn to greet our 'new' band member. I won't accept a delinquent like him into our group even if he is amazing at the bass!

I crossed my arms over my chest and turned my back to Gajeel. I could feel a presence behind me. I turned round and saw Lucy retching towards me. Her hands dove into my stomach and she started to tickle me repeatedly.

"Introduce yourself right now and stop being so rude!" Lucy said laughing with me.

"F-Fine!" I yelled while laughing so hard I was crying. Lucy stopped tickling me and I brought my composer back. "You didn't need to tickle me." I pouted and she pointed to Gajeel. I rolled my eyes and turned towards him. "I'm Levy and I play piano, guitar, drums and violin." I said unamused. Gajeel smirked at me and my eye started twitching again.

We all stayed in Lucy garage and talked about stuff. Well it was more me, Lucy and Natsu chatting and Gray and Gajeel just sitting back. A girl with pink short hair walked into the garage wearing a maid outfit.

"Princess, I have prepared food for you and your friends but if you don't need food then punishment will be required." She said bowing at Lucy.

"Oh thank you Virgo!" Lucy said smiling at her maid. Her maid brought in a tray of sandwiches and a tray of drinks.

"Punishment?" Her maid asked. Lucy shook her head vigorously. Her maid walked out the room after bowing.

"You're a princess?" Natsu said amazed. Lucy rolled her eyes.

"It's just a nickname Virgo gave me." Lucy said picking up a sandwich and started munching on it.

We all talked for hours and it was time to go home.

"Everyone meet here tomorrow at 10 and Levy, don't sleep in this time!" Lucy glared at me playfully. I rolled my eyes and smiled. "Also Gajeel and Gray bring your instruments, I'll provide for Levy and Natsu" I looked at her confused but I shrugged it off.

Me, Natsu and Gajeel started walking home in the same direction while Gray went the opposite way.

"So how do you like Fairy Tail so far?" Natsu asked Gajeel smiling. Gajeel just shrugged. My eye started twitching again.

"We're only just a shrug! We must be better than that, well you haven't heard us play so I guess that's it." I shouted crossing my arms and sticking my tongue out a Gajeel.

"You're pretty loud, for a shrimp." Gajeel said laughing to himself.

"Well you play well, for a metal face." I said walking faster than the other two.

"I've gotta turn this way, so see you tomorrow! Oh and Gajeel stop meaning mean to Levy or I'll get Lucy on you." Natsu said turning down the road. Thanks Natsu for leaving me with Gajeel.

"You don't like me do you." Gajeel said from behind me.

"Not one bit." I said bluntly. I mean the others can be friends with him but I for one will not!

"Why?" He said and I could feel the annoyance in his voice.

"Because you distract me in lesson." I said after thinking for a while.

"Oh I distract you?" Gajeel ran in front of me and raised an eyebrow with a sly smile. I snorted.

"Only because you hum and are annoying." I said walking past him. I heard him grunt behind me in disappointment. Sorry but not everyone is likes the delinquent type.

I got to my apartment and walked up to the door.

"You can go home by the way." I said as I felt his eyes burning the back of my head. I turned round and glared at him. He turned the way we came and left. Do you mean he walked all the way to my apartment just to go back to other way? My eye started twitching again. I slapped myself to stop the twitching.

I noticed there was a piece of paper on the floor. Did someone shove it through my letterbox? I picked the piece of paper off the floor and was disgusted. It was a flyer for 'Karen and the Hot Chicks'. It had Karen in the centre with her name above her head, to the right of her was Juvia, to the left was the green haired girl from yesterday apparently her name it Bisca, to the side if Bisca was a girl with dark brown hair her name was Cana and at the back sitting behind a drum kit was a red headed girl. I didn't even need to look at her name to know who it was. Erza Scarlet, the devil woman from my elementary school. I shuddered as I looked at her. Well they're all are very pretty.

I screwed the flyer up and chucked it in the bin. I never want to look at that flyer again!

It was about 9am when I woke up. At least it wasn't past 10. I poured myself a bowl of cereal and slowly munched on it. I got dressed and brushed my hair. I got my boots on and was about to walk out my apartment when I heard a knock on my door. I rushed over and opened it. A spiky hair, metal faced boy was standing there.

"Gajeel." I snarled. He kept his straight face. "What are you doing here?" I said in a monotone voice.

"I was seeing if you were awake since I had time to spare." I rolled my eyes at his response. I grabbed my bag and stepped out my apartment. I locked the door and walked away from the stranded Gajeel.

I could hear his loud stomps behind me. I stopped and turned to face him.

"Why did you want to join Fairy Tail?" I asked, squinting my eyes at him.

"I had nothing to do and I saw your poster, so I decided to join." He said walking past me with his hands behind his head.

"Well if you miss even one practise, you're out. No acceptations." I said walking behind him angrily with my eye twitching. He turned his face round to see me.

"Do you have an eye problem or something?" He said turning his head back round.

"It's just that my eye starts twitching when I get mad." I said mentally slapping myself to stop the twitching.

"How long's it been doing that?" He said out of curious.

"Since two days ago." I said. I saw Gajeel miss a step as the realisation hit him that he was to blame for my eye twitching.

"Oh." He grunted.

"Oh indeed." I replied back at him thinking I'm so witty.

We arrived at Lucy house and I knocked on the door. She answered and looked confused that I was with Gajeel. She let us in still confused and led us into her garage. There in the middle of the garage was a keyboard and a drum kit. I looked at Lucy with amazement and she stared back at me with excitement.

"Do you like it? I've also got a grand piano is well but I just thought we would use this for today." I moved over to the keyboard and stroked the keys.

"Did you buy them?" I asked still in awe.

"Err no. They were my mom's." Lucy said shrugging her shoulders while smiling.

"Well she has very good kept instruments." I said not noticing that Lucy had become very quiet and contempt. I was going to change subjects but someone interrupted that.

"Remember I need to meet your mom soon." Lucy said going back to normal.

"Well she's on a 'business trip' right now." I said. I wasn't technically lying.

"Cool, where?" Lucy questioned with sparkles in her eyes.

"I think she's in Cleveland, America." I said and I still wasn't lying.

"Hey that's where MM's next concert is." Lucy said fascinated by are conversation.

"I didn't know that." I finally lied. There was a knock at Lucy's door. She rushed off to get it. I sat down on the couch and Gajeel just stood around being awkward.

"You're pretty awkward ain't ya." I said lying down on the plush, red sofa. I swear it was a different couch.

"I'm sorry little miss eye twitch." He said snarling at me. My eye started twitching in annoyance and Gajeel laughed his weird little laugh that sounded like 'Ghehe' but it didn't suit him but it did at the same time. He's so complicated.

Gray and Natsu walked in and stared at the instruments in awe. Lucy the instruments sink in to their thick skulls.

"Right we need to start practising!" Lucy said snapping them out of their trance. "Levy don't you need to write the chords for Gajeel?"

"I don't know them." I said sitting up off the couch.

"I can write them but I need to know the tune." Gajeel said in his low masculine voice.

"Fine, come with me." I said sitting down at the keyboard. I started playing the tune before Gajeel could grab a paper and pen. He finally found one and started jotting down chords.

I finished and could see Gajeel didn't get the start.

"Can you play the start again?" He asked.

"Tch." I rolled my eyes. I felt something hit my head I turned round to see who it was. Lucy.

"Just play the start! I wanna practise!" She said jumping up and down like a little kid on a sugar rush. I sighed and played the start until Gajeel said stop.

"See was that so hard, shrimp?" He mocked. My eye almost started twitching but I held it back.

"Right now Gajeel you stand here and Gray stand here." Lucy said pointing to different spots on the floor. She grabbed a camera. Lucy pressed record and propped it on a shelf at the side of the garage.

"1…2…3...4" I said and Gray started to strum the guitar.

"Manage me, I'm a mess
Turn a page, I'm a book
Half unread

I wanna be laughed at
Laughed with, just because

I wanna feel weightless
And that should be enough" Lucy sand perfectly. Me and Gajeel then started in.

"But I'm stuck in this freaking rut
Waiting on a second hand pick me up
And I'm over, getting older

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over, getting old" Natsu then started banging the drums.

"Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here

Make believe that I impress
That every word
By design
Turns a head

I wanna feel reckless
I wanna live it up, just because

I wanna feel weightless
Cause that would be enough

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over, getting old

This could be all that I've waited for
And this could be everything
I don't wanna dream anymore

Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I've been going crazy
I'm stuck in here

Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here" Lucy finished out of breath and walked over to the camera and stopped the recording. She smiled excitedly at us all. From what I could tell so far is that it went really well.
