I don't own fairytail or the songs in my story

GMG: Fifth Performance: Love Song

The next day, it was the love song category. Blue Pegasus got voted out which was no surprise, they were a boy band incapable of rapping. But this new category shook the team to their bones.

Usually, it should be no problem right? I mean, with the connection Natsu and Lucy had they where a shoo in! But, because of their fight, NaLu has been on the outs. Natsu was trying unbelievably hard to corner Lucy and make her talk to him. Lucy on the other hand was doing the best to avoid Natsu as much as possible. She just couldn't forget, she was finally over the whole Lisanna thing, not to mention how angry he got.

The whole band was worrying about it aswell.

"Lucy get up!" Erza yelled, shaking Lucy. "I'm up I'm up!" Lucy screeched and sat up rubbing her eyes.

"It's the love song category today let's go!" Erza yelled enthusiastically. "*yawn* I think I'll pass today. I'm sure you can get Lisanna to sing with Natsu." Lucy scoffed, turning back over in bed.

"Oh no you don't-" Erza yelled grabbing Lucy's ear and pulling her outta bed "- you and Natsu are still together and so help me god I will fix your stupid issues!" She screeched, walking to the boys room.

Natsu and Jellal were lying on their respective beds. Unaware that Erza had suddenly barged in dragging Lucy. "Erza what the hell let her go!" Natsu yelled, stunned by the sudden entrance. Erza lifted Lucy up and plopped her on the bed beside Natsu. All Lucy wanted to do was go back into bed.

"Now-" she said, grabbing "-Jellal and I are going to go pack the costumes, alright? Ok." And just like the the red head had dragged out the Bluenette unwillingly.

A very awkward silence enveloped the two. Surprisingly, it was Lucy who broke it, "so, does your hotel room lock from the outside errrr." She said awkwardly. "It was Erza who installed it herself." Natsu sighed. "Righttttt" Lucy sighed.

"So, uh... are you excited for today?" Lucy asked this time, awkwardly as ever. Everything and anything about this whole situation is awkward. "Lucy stop forcing small talk and actually have a conversation with me" natsu demanded angrily. He was about as angry as a raging bull.

"Leave it alone, Natsu. Let's just go over the lyrics and prepare for today, I'm done talking about this."

It was time. All of fairy tail was huddled in their dressing rooms. To be truthful, it was a ball of nerves back there. No one was cheering or being goofy like usual. Everyone was studying Natsu and Lucy to see what they'd do next.

Lucy was already changes into black, ripped high waisted shorts, a white tank top with a ripped wool crop top with a heart in the middle. She was currently curling her hair and finishing her make up, silently. Some could say that she was scowling in the process. Others could say that's just the way she puts on make up.

Natsu had just exited the changing room. He had on black jeans and a red and white raglan shirt that was pulled up to his elbows. He had on a pair of red Osiris. And honestly couldn't keep his brows for knitting together, he was a mess of nerves.

But he couldn't talk to her about it. She didn't want to that was quite obvious from this morning.

"Fairy Tail. You're on next." The stage manager knocked on their door. Everyone int he band nodded and followed him out and waited at the door, they could barely hear Makarov calling "Good luck!" after them.

Lucy watched as Lamia Scale came off the other side, they had just finished they're performance, now it was Fairy tails turn. 'Ok Lucy, you're going to go out their and pretend everything's ok. And you're going to kick ass at this performance!' She mentally gave herself a pep talk as the Passionate band headed on stage. They got set in their positions and the band started to play.

(* is Lucy singing + is Natsu singing)

.

*Sometimes I hate every, single stupid word you say.

(Lucy shrugged and sat on the second step)

*Sometimes I wanna slap you in your hole face

(Natsu did the exact same as Lucy)

+Theirs no one quite like you

(He nudged her in the shoulder)

+You push all my buttons out

(Luc poked him in the arm and smiled)

I know life would suck without you

(They both stood up in sync and linked hands)

.

+At the same time I wanna hug you, I wanna wrap my hands around your neck

(They hugged and Lucy walked away while Natsu made a choking manor)

*You're and asshole, but I love you and you make me so mad I ask myself

(Lucy made a glare at Natsu but then made a heart to the audience)

*Why I'm still here

+Oh we're could I go

(Natsu walked beside Lucy)

You're the only love I've ever known

(They turned and faced eachother)

*But I hate you

(She poked him in the chest)

+I really hate you

(He poked her in the collar bone)

So much I think it must be...

And with that, the stadium went completely dark. You could hear millions of fans scream from the sudden change in light. Lucy stood frozen on stage, everything was black.

She felt a tight grip on her arm and let out a scream, which no one could hear thanks to everyone screaming, it was so noisy. "Relax Lucy it's just me." Natsu voice came warmly from around the area of the grip.

She should've knew it'd be him.

"Why'd the powers go out?" Lucy yelled to Natsu over the madness. "Beats me! Let's get out of here-" Natsu said, pulling Lucy towards him. She resisted, "no! If we keep moving we could fall off the stage!"

Suddenly, a soft buzz came over the headsets. Everyone in the band had one for vocals but they could also be used as walkee talkee's.

Erza: everyone ok?

Jellal: ya I'm fine.

Gajeel: all good here

Wendy: I'm good.

Natsu: Lucy and I are good.

Lucy: yep.

Lucy: what happened?

Erza: I don't know, think the power went out. My amp isn't making any noise.

Natsu: we need to calm this crowd down. The speakers are battery run right?

Gajeel: what you got in mind flame face?

Lucy: I think I know...

She grasped Natsu's hand firmly and cleared her voice. "I need everyone to be quiet!" She yelled into the microphone, the crowd recognized the singers voice and their noise subsided.

"We don't know how, but it seems the powers out. We need everyone to stay calm. I have to ask you, if you have a cell phone please turn the screen on or the flashlight." She spoke clearly once again.

It was like magic. All of these small, white lights filled the stadium. Natsu gasped in awe, it reminded him of that night after clash of the bands when Lucy and him were watching the stars.

"Doesn't this make it better everyone? Why don't we all do something together to pass the time huh?" Lucy called, the audience cheered loudly. Besides, who doesn't want to pass time with their favourite celebrities?

"any suggestions?" He yelled, as the other band members joined Natsu and Lucy on the lower half of the stage.

"SING!" A bunch of the crowd yelled. Lucy blushed heavily hearing the positive feedback. "W-what song?" She stuttered. The audience stayed silence, no one could agree on just one song.

"Why don't we let Lucy pick?" Natsu yelled over the mic and the crowd cheered. 'I swear I'm going to choke Natsu when I get out of here.' The blonde whined inwardly.

"U-um, well, how about this lullaby my mom used to sing to me? Jellal how bout you grab your keyboard and just unplug the amp?" Jellal nodded, smiling, he did as Lucy said.

Their was no need to prepare. When the 6 had a sleepover a month ago they had a jam session over this one song. Once Jellal got down everyone set up. Erza grabbed an acoustic guitar and Gajeel had some big bongo drums infront of him.

Underwater/Nikki Flores)

(Lucy's taking main vocals but everyone's harmonizing)

.

.

If I could draw a line around myself

If I could be invisible no one can hurt me now.

I would never need nobody else

But it's too late

You're everything I swore I'd never be

You're making me want something I was doing fine without

You're like a wave crashing over me

But it's too late

It's too late

.

I'm over my head

And there's no way out

It's like I'm underwater trying not to drown

The harder I fly

The deeper I fall

Why am I so afraid to fall?

I wish that I could breathe

But I can't remember now

And the tide can't save me now

I'm under water

.

.

Suddenly, once again interrupting, the lights flickered on and the crowd cheered, but where secretly sad because they were basically getting an exclusive with their favourite band.

Natsu and Lucy sighed, it took awhile to have their eyes adjust to the bright stage lights. Lucy sighed inwardly 'he came for me in the dark...' She couldn't help but remember his warm voice when the lights went out.

"Relax Lucy it's just me."

Why was she calm when it was just him? She should've been angry, they're in a fight right now. 'I know all too well how this will end. We rushed into things, dating when we'd known each other a day but still... Why does he make my heart beat so fast.' She thought, gazing up at her partner.

A buzz came over the announcements and a scratchy voice came over.

"Bzzt, our apologies Fairy Tail. The wires were cut and we found the culprits. Raven Tail is out of the pool. To make up for the loss of songs. We will be continuing to the next round which is Slow Songs in which Lamia Scale, Sabertooth and Fairy Tail will be battling to get into the finals bzzt"

And the voice cut out.

How was it?

First song was True Love by Pink

Second song was Under Water by Nikki Flores

I thought I'd switch it up because the last few chapters where merely just singing and I though they needed to touch base with their fans!

Can't wait for the next round. Who do you think will get into finals?

I wanna know what you think please review!

Sorry all the songs are so outdated, don't get me wrong I like the music of today I just don't think it's as genuine and heartfelt as the ones of before. Nowadays everyone is just trying to sleep with eachother. Anywho I also wrote these awhile back so yeah.
