Minerva was pacing while Gajeel sat on a large amp that wasn't connected to any instruments.
"yo, she-Demon, cc alm the he'll down, she'll be here, " he said pinching the bridge if his nose in annoyance. her pacing was making him ancy.
"I know but Sherry and Ren already went and bacchus is performing right now and after him it's just Zeref and Yukino, " she said exasoeratedly.
Gajeel groaned at her and looked out the side of the curtain while a rick song played with Bacchus singing slightly off key.
He made eye contact with the cute girl from before, Ash, he had a date with her after the competition.
"Gajeel! Pay attention! " Minerva scolded and Gajeel rolled his eyes.
"to what? Chill out Min, it'll be fine, " he got a loud groan from her in response.
The crowd applauded for the school drunkards counter-part, signalling the end of his performance and the start of the next.
"Dude, it's Zeref, calm down and support the guy, " Gajeel told Minerva who nodded in agreement and stood next to him watching as Mira announced the next performer.
"Next up is the keyboardist for Misslent Gifts, Zeref!! " she cheered in her always happy manner.
Zeref walked slowly on stage. He wore a simple black t shirt and black skinny jeans which showed off his lean figure yet muscular arms and legs.
"who knew he was a closeted hunk? " Minerva said alpreciatively.
Gajeel snickered, "I bet Bunny girl did, "
Minerva smacked him as Zeref stood behind the microphone stand and music started to play,
You tell all the boys noMakes you feel good yeahI know you're out of my leagueBut that won't scare me away oh noYou've carried on so longYou couldn't stop if you tried itYou've built your wall so highThat no one could climb itBut I'm gonna tryZeref finally opened his eyes as he sang looking out into the distance at an imaginary person.
Would you let me see beneath your beautifulWould you let me see beneath your perfectTake it off now girl, take it off now girlI wanna see insideWould you let me see beneath your beautiful tonightMinerva smiled softly, she knew who the song was meant for.
You let all the boys goMakes you feel good, don't it?Behind your Broadway showI heard a voice say please don't hurt meYou've carried on so longYou couldn't stop if you tried itYou've built your wall so highThat no one could climb itBut I'm gonna tryGajeel shook his head at the teen. He was so deep, luckily he knew that Bunny girl was involved just as much.
Would you let me see beneath your beautifulWould you let me see beneath your perfectTake it off now girl, take it off now girlI wanna see insideWould you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
Zeref took the microphone out of the stand and sang with his eyes closed.
Oh, tonightSee beneath, see beneath,I Tonight II'm gonna climb on top your ivory towerI'll hold your hand and then we'll jump right outWe'll be falling, fallingBut that's okayCause I'll be right hereI just wanna knowThe dark clothed boy sang softly looking down, his eyes closed, though no one could tell.
Would you let me see beneath your beautifulWould you let me see beneath your perfectTake it off now girl, take it off now girlCause I wanna see you sayWould you let me see beneath your beautiful tonightHe looked up and belt out. It was the loudest and probably most any of the students had ever heard from him.
Tonight, see beneath your beautifulOh tonight, we ain't perfect, we ain't perfectWould you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
the crowd was silent for a few seconds before a single clapping was heard in the crowd. Gajeel and Minerva got out of their stupor and clapped along with the lone clapper until others jloned in and a huge noise of applause was filling the theatre.
The two smiled at their blue haired band mate who sat in the crowd with his red haired girlfriend who was clappingvas loud as everyone else.
Jellal winked at them, showing his encouragement and Gajeel two finger saluted back.
Zeref left the stage as quietly as he'd appeared, stopping next to his bandmates.
"Dude, that was awesome,!" Gajeel kudoed, and Zeref shrugged nonchalantly.
"Seriously Zeref, it was amazing, you have a beautiful voice, " Minerva acknowledged.
Zeref smiled softly, "we'll, I do not only play the piano "
Gajeel laughed, "oh we know "
Zeref looked at him confused before Gajeel laughed harder.
Mira had gotten on stage and started to announce the next singer, "our next and final performer for the Solo section is our very own solo, Yukino !"
The three band mates applauded politely for the shy white haired girl who shuffled to the microphone.
The three shared a look as Yukino struggled to get the mirophone out of the stand.
Once the girl got it out she took a deep breath and nodded to the unseen dj, and music started to play.
There's an "S" under my clothesOn my chest where nobody else can seeI light up when the doors are closedI am free, yeahYukino hasn't looked up aat all as she sang timidly. And I wish I could make my moveI can tell that you're really into meAnd I don't got a thing to lose, in my dreams, in my dreamsAt the change of the beat, her voice egot stronger and louder. her foot tapped with rythm and a spunk no one recognized from the usually timid girl.
I'm a bad ass, jumping off the moving trainI'm a Jane Bond, putting all the guys to shameI'm a wild card, and I'm gonna steal your gameYou better watch outShe quickly shifted her peircing gaze at the crowd, finally, as she sang, letting them know it was true, that she was stronger than they think and she was done with steriotypkcal shit.
I'm a fire starterMake your blood run fasterI melt hearts like waterYeah yeah oh whoa yeah yeah, oh ohI'm a fire starter, I'm a sweet disasterI melt hearts like waterYeah yeah oh yeah yeah, oh yeahShe loosened up and walked around making jerky movements, such as air punches, and a finger gun as she sang.
I might look all innocentBut the embers are burning inside of meAnd I'm ready to take that step, can't you see, can't you see?She smiled and threw her little jacket off showing her pale slender arms.
I'm a bad ass jumping off the moving trainI'm a Jane Bond, putting all the guys to shameI'm a wild card, I'm about to take my aimYou better watch out, watch outI'm a fire starter, I'm a sweet disasterI melt hearts like waterYeah yeah oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeahI'm a fire starter, I'm a sweet disasterI melt hearts like waterYeah yeah oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeahShe sang not holding a anything back. Minerva couldn't help but think she reminded her of Lucy a little bit.
I'm so high, I'm burning up,Kiss your lips, I'm waking upThere's nothing more to be afraid of
she calmed down slightly and sang looking at Sting specifically, from in the crowd.
There's an "S" under my clothesOn my chest where nobody else can seeThen she moved her gaze away a little too late to see the proud smike almost split his face I two.
I'm a fire starter, make your blood run fasterI melt hearts like waterYeah yeah oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeahI'm a fire starter, I'm a sweet disasterI melt hearts like waterYeah yeah oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeahShe had held nothing back in her song, and she felt amazed at how light her body ffelt as she finished.
I'm a fire starterThe applause that came next was mind blowing. Whistles, screams and shouts came, the loudest comming from the familiar voice of a certain Dragon.
Yukino just stood there in her finishing pose as she took deep breaths her chest heaving and a huge beautiful smile on her face.
She felt like a brand new person.
Like nothing could touch her.
She quickly ran off the stage and past the Misspent Gifts Band Members.
She ran out the door without sparing a glance at anyone.
They heard the doors to outside open and heard a joyous, free howl of pleasure. One they all knew she deserved.
"I always knew she could do it, " a sweet voice that was slightly winded commented causing Zeref, Minerva, and Gajeel to look over and see their favorite blond lead vocalist standing there with a bag in her hand and hair array.
"Lucy/Bunny girl! " they all shouted happily in unison.
Quickly Jellal ran up and joined them, taking deep breaths at his sprint to get there quickly.
"When did you get here? " the blur haired teen asked, giving the blond a side hug.
Lucy smiled, " during Yukis performance. she was amazing wasn't she? "
"Astounding yes, " Minerva said before she was interupted by Gajeel.
"how was the funeral, are you okay? "
Lucy nodded somberly, "yeah, I think I'm going to be, "
Zeref looked at her with unreadable eyes. She met his gaze head on.
"hi"
"hi"
"oh for gods sake kiss already! " Lisanna said from her slot across the room where she stood with Natsu and Erza who smiled kindly at them.
Lucy smiled softly and Zeref practically leaped to her, pulling her to him and planting his lips onto her is a chaste yet passionate kiss.
She reciprocated with vigor and licked his bottom lip.
He made a suprised noise that Lucy found adorible and opened his mouth so they could deepen the kiss.
before they could get too into it Gajeel cleared his throat, "okay so um, we have to go on in a few minutes after Mermaid Heel soo, please stop sucking face, "
Lucy and Zeref selerated with matching blushed that the others just looked on in amusement.
Lucy sighed and nodded, "so, Let's win this thing! "
