New chapie time! I hope you enjoy! And also, I only managed to finish this since I was sick. TT^TT I don't own Fairy Tail!

Everyone at the guild felt miserable. There was some sort of virus going around and with the amount of people who came through Fairy Tail for a job, well, it hit them pretty hard.

Due to this fact, everyone in Fairy Tail was quarantined. Meaning, stick Natsu, Gray and the rest of Fairy Tail together, for days.

Let's just say the bills were piling up.

"Flame *achoo* Brain wanna *groan* go?" "Bring it *cough* Ice *sniffle* Princess!" The two weakly started to move to each other, not even bothering to sum up magic power.

Everyone's magic power was low between being sick, fighting, trying to stop fights, and more. Sadly, this didn't even stop people from fighting.

Master had gone to his office, shut the door, and started sobbing.

Levy had found a corner and hid in it with a pile of books. Gajeel had joined her later, and they were both asleep on each other's shoulder.

Juvia had taken to staying in the pool area and lying miserably by the water, watching her beloved Gray-sama.

Wendy stayed in the infirmary, slowly healing people and once they were healed, they ran out of Fairy Tail as fast as possible. Romeo, Charle, and Happy were keeping her company, tired of the constant fighting downstairs.

Lucy, Erza, Lissanna, and Mira had simply claimed the bar, and anyone who tried to get near it met the wrath of Titania.

Of course, Gray and Natsu were just fighting, catching their breath, then fighting again.

Requests were piling up on the board, no one being well enough to take them. The mages who hadn't been in Fairy Tail when the virus struck, were staying as far away as possible, including all of Magnolia.

Perhaps the only positive attitude was Mirajane. After all she had this many people stuck together, with sooo many potential couples. What other way to solve the boredom than by stories? More specifically, stories about fellow guild mates.

She rushed to the lacrima and brought up her lmail. She quickly typed in her username and password (demoness and matchmaker), and scanned her mail.

The second email from the top was addressed from pineapple2819 and excitement bubbled up from Mira.

She scanned through the story and found who it was about. With a smirk she flipped around and got everyone's attention.

"MINNA! A new fanfic is in!" For once every single person was excited, they were tired of being bored and stuck with Natsu and Gray.

A flash sparked in the guild from the pool as Juvia ran over "GRAY *cough* -SAMA!" She hopped onto Gray and hugged him as he shoved her off. (A/N Gray why you gotta be so rude? Don't you know Juvia's human tooooo? 3)

"Anyways, someone go grab everyone in the infirmary and someone else go grab Master!" People shot off, looking for any way to curb the pain.

Once Romeo, Wendy, Charle, Happy, and Master had been gathered, the reading began.

Dear Fairy Tail,

I heard how sick you guys were so I decided to send a fanfic over. I picked an extra fluffy one! Enjoy! Also please keep anyone mentioned in fanfics on watch, I don't need another set of guys to break into my house and destroy it! *cough* Gajeel *cough* Laxus. Oh one last thing! This one is AU or Alternative Universe, it won't take place in Magnolia or at least the Magnolia you know. It's a world different from yours!

Everyone was sort of annoyed. There was no hint as to who was going to be in the fanfic!

"Hey Mirajane! Who *cough sniffle moan groan* is in the fanfic?" "You'll just have to wait and see!"

Suddenly everyone noticed something very weird. Mira didn't even seem like she was sick. Oh well.

This Ain't No Shakespeare By: OMGimsosickrightnow

No POV

"We begin our story in a land far, far away, known as Edolas. Here unicorns run free and rainbows are everywhere."

At least that's what Wendy read at the beginning of the book she checked out from the library.

The guild burst into cheers (mixed with moans, coughs, sneezes, and a whole bunch of other stuff). How much cuter can you get than Romeo and Wendy? After all, who else can you pair with Wendy?

Wendy was blushing profusely and Romeo looked shocked. "You likeeeeeeeeeeee her!" Happy trilled. Romeo flipped around to Happy and stuck his awful smelling fire underneath Happy's nose.

As Happy fainted out of disgust, all the dragon-slayers simultaneously groaned. Especially Wendy who was right next to Romeo.

Romeo seeing Wendy's reaction to the fire, look alarmed and quickly stopped and started apologizing.

A chorus of AWWW erupted from the guild and Mirajane took a camera out of nowhere and started taking photos.

Noticing the people staring, Romeo and Wendy backed away from each other, refusing to look at each other, both blushing.

Another chorus of AWWW's circled around the guild. "Alright, alright, let's give them a break," Mira said.

The guild turned to her in amazement. Someone had taken over their take over mage. Mirajane would never stop a moment like that.

Mirajane just chuckled. Her plan had to be finished first so Romeo and Wendy could look even more adorable.

She wrinkled her nose in disgust and chucked the book on her bed, until she realized what she just did and picked the book up and placed it down somewhere nicely.

Once her mind stopped focusing on the awful book, she thought about tomorrow. Butterflies, no dragons flew in her stomach. They rammed into the side of her stomach and roared as loud as they could. Her mom had asked her five times if she was hungry.

Quite the opposite in fact. Wendy had never felt more nervous in her life. She wasn't hungry at all, and she felt strangely full of energy and depleted of it.

Looking at the clock, she noticed it was late. That meant sleeping, and sleeping meant waking up, and waking up meant that it would be tomorrow. And tomorrow meant, well tomorrow meant try-outs.

But sleeping late would only make her tired and make it harder to make it through tomorrow.

And so, she slept.

Romeo's POV

I walked to school that morning with a frown plastered on his face. Thanks to a stupid dare I had to try out for the school play.

The dare was that I had to go ask his crush out. But I chickened out at the last moment as soon as I saw her eyes.

"WHO THE HELL DO YOU *moan* LIKE ROMEO, AND WHY ARE YOU *sneeze* BREAKING WENDY'S HEART?!"

"HOW MANY *achoo* TIMES IDIOT?! HOW MANY FREAKING TIMES DO I *sniffle* HAVE TO TELL YOU?! THESE ARE *cough* STORIES!"

Everyone shied away from the very angry Lucy and the cowering Natsu.

"Wh-why don't we *sniffle* continue?" Levy asked. Yes, Lucy was Levy's best friend, and everyone loved their sweet stellar mage, but when she was angry, she was as scary as Erza.

Mirajane agreed and the story continued…

So I lost the bet. And now I was about to be publicly humiliated. I have never tried acting before, and I was positive my singing voice sounded like a cat was dying. Times infinity.

But as I was a member of the club at school called Fairy Tail, I was obligated to go through with my promises.

Or risk being stuck with Bob, the teacher who sponsored the Blue Pegasus club. That was considered the boy's punishment.

The girl's was to be stuck with Ichiya and the Tri-Men.

As I would really like to avoid that punishment, I decided to try out for the school play. And fail miserably. But hey, at least if I messed up enough, I wouldn't get stuck with a part.

Now I just had to finish the school day, try out for some annoying play, and not have my life be any different afterwards.

Wendy's POV

Oh Mavis. I was pacing like a mad woman. I was at the auditions and all the people had gone before her. That mean I was the final one.

The audition was a no theme audition. No one knew what the play was, and they just tried out with a script that the judges made. And you were supposed to audition with a partner.

I walked onto stage as the previous audition finished up and looked to see who my partner was.

To my surprise and embarrassment, it was none other than Romeo, the Prince of the freshman at Fiore High.

See each grade had a Prince and Princess. They were elected at the beginning of the year, more like a 'who's the most popular' contest. Or the cutest couple. And Romeo, being amazing at sports and studies, not to mention pretty good looking, had won it easily.

There was also the King and Queen, who were the seniors that were elected. This year the King and Queen was Natsu, her older brother, and Lucy, his girlfriend. Natsu was captain of the football team and Lucy was head cheerleader.

"Hahaha Lucy, are you sure *achoooo* you aren't Natsu's caretaker?" "Yeah he still *moan* hasn't matured!" Lucy's face was covered by her hair as she got up and stalked to the people talking. Anger sure gives an energy boost. Noticing a detail on their face she smiled. "Hey Erza, I found *cough cough* who stole your *sniffle* cake earlier. Heh heh these two have *achoo* cake crumbs on their face!"

A look of horror dawned on the two boys as Erza stood up. Earlier some idiot made the mistake of stealing her cake and she had been fuming in a corner ever since. She was so mad, she failed to check on whether Lucy was telling the truth or not.

All that Erza was sure of by the end of the minute, was that the infirmary would get two new guests.

"Ahem, well now that that's over, I'll start reading."

See what she means by popular contest? It's all the clichés of high school wrapped into one nicely tied package.

Anyway back to the audition.

My mouth hung open as the Prince walked on the stage with an annoyed face. That is, until he saw me. His face brightened a little, and he didn't seem so grumpy. Oh wait, that's because the directors were right behind me.

He was probably happy that he could try out now. Yeah that was it.

I was amazed that he was interested in acting though. I had never pinned him as an actor.

I mean, it's not like I would know that. That would be creepy and stalker-ish. I didn't watch him or anything at football practice, heh heh.

I just watched to make sure my brother was okay. Yeah that's it.

"Aww, Wendy *cough* has a crush!" Erza squealed. Her hand flew to her mouth. Did she just… squeal? Everyone stared at Erza and burst into laughter.

Who knew she could be so cute? And who knew that fanfiction meant blackmail? Also has everyone had noticed at this point that Mira didn't seems sick at all. She managed to read all that without and coughs, sneezes, or anything.

Mirajane noticed a look of realization upon people's face so she continued in the hope of distracting them.

I turned to Romeo and we started the lines.

Romeo's POV

As soon as I saw Wendy, I knew I had to try. After all, what better way to um, oh! What better way to get in good graces of the football captain than spend time with his sister? Even though I was already in Fairy Tail with him but no matter.

It's not like Wendy was my crush or anything. Yeah that's it.

So as soon as they began to read, I got that rush of adrenaline that I get before a big game and I powered through the lines. I read them fluently and with emotion.

I was shocked, I never knew I could possibly act. Psh I blew that audition out of the water.

Wendy of course, was amazing and adorab- I mean amazing and really good.

The directors simply smiled and waved us off-stage. Well the bets done, I get to hang out with Wendy, and the school day is over. Yup this was a good day.

As I went to sleep that night, a smile was displayed on my face.

Wendy's POV

Oh Mavis, the results were going to be posted today. What part would I get? Would I be a side character or the main character?

My friend Chelia came up to me, and she also tried out. "Wanna go check?" she asked. I nodded and we marched determinedly to the list.

Play: Romeo and Juliet

Juliet: Wendy Marvell

I stopped reading as soon as I saw that. The world felt like it was moving in slow motion around me. I- I got the main part? And of Romeo and Juliet, one of my favorite stories?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

"Good job *sniffle* Wendy!" "Um, *cough* thanks Natsu-san?" "Sigh, not even going to try."

Romeo's POV

I walked to the list that morning. I saw the play name: Romeo and Juliet. Ha, not only are my acting skills awesome enough to get me the main part, it was made for me. It's called freaking Romeo and Juliet.

I smiled as I saw Wendy got the main part. Well obviously I need a good Juliet.

I looked down one line to the Romeo part.

Romeo: Ryo Kuro

Eh? Wait then who was I?

Tree: Romeo

EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

"HAHAHA! Romeo, you're *cough* a chip of the old block!" Wakaba laughed.

"HEY I COULD EASILY *sniffle* WIN THAT AUDITION!" Macao screamed.

"DON'T COMPARE ME TO *achoo* HIM!" Romeo screamed.

Wakaba felt the full brunt of the father-son relationship as two fists slammed into his face and sent him flying. He flew through the infirmary doors and landed on the floor. At least they wouldn't have to bring him up there.

Luckily I don't have to go to the stupid practices for the play, but I found out I can't drop out. Well at least I have an excuse to talk to Wendy.

Because it was club time, I headed to Fairy Tail. I walked in to see Natsu dragging someone in the room.

"Minna! I finally got my sister to join! Welcome Wendy!" Everyone cheered as the new Juliet walked into the room.

She looked nervously around until Natsu shoved her towards me. "This is Romeo! He's also a freshman. You guys can be friends!"

I waved to her and she looked up. With a shy smile she waved back. "Hi Romeo. How did your audition go?"

I sheepishly rubbed the back of my head as I explained the outcome of my audition. She looked guilty as she started apologizing. "I'm so sorry that must have been rude of me to ask!"

"No it's fine! Really!" I exclaimed, watching the girl bow fifty times. She stopped bowing and straightened up.

"Well Romeo, to be honest, I was really excited that you were going to be in the play. I mean! You know, since we've never really talked."

"Yeah…" I responded.

With that, we talked until club time was over. She was surprisingly easy to talk to. We never really paused once.

Wendy's POV

As I walked out of Fairy Tail, I knew I would love that place. Everyone was really nice.

Today though, practice started for the play. I walked over to the auditorium and peeked inside.

People were painting, practicing lines, acting, and doing whatever. I walked inside and a burst of cheer met me. "Juliet is here! That means we can start!" the director announced.

First she walked over to me. "Hi I'm the director, but you can call me Mirajane. I am so excited to start. Aren't you?"

And so weeks of practicing passed, along with going to Fairy Tail and I grew bonds with all the actors and club members. Finally, it was the night of the play.

I was soooo nervous. Can I go on? Do I want to go on? Will I barf on stage? I paced like crazy, not able to stop myself. Suddenly I felt hands latch onto my arms and hold me in place.

I turned to meet the eyes or Romeo. He chuckled, "It's hilarious when you do that. You look like a bulldozer ready to mow down anything in its path."

"Hey calm yourself, you are a fabulous actress. If you need support, just look at the tree. I'll be the roots that hold you down. Get it? Roots?"

I laughed way too hard for such a bad joke, but I felt the tension leave me and I felt ready to be Juliet.

I walked on the stage and started in my beginning pose. And right before the curtains went up, I saw a tree, who gave me a smile and winked.

"That was by far, the sweetest thing evaaa!" Mirajane sang. "Mira, you *cough* aren't really sick are *sniffle* you?" Levy asked.

"What *cough are *cough you *sniffle* talking *sneeze* about *achoo?" she asked with a grin on her face.

Romeo's POV

Wendy glowed on the stage, she was the play. That Ryo kid was meh not that great.

When the play was over, is sprinted to my locker and grabbed the thing I needed.

That rush of adrenaline was back as I flew through the school halls in an attempt to find Wendy.

Once I located her I called out to her, "Wendy!"

She turned, with her costume flowing around her, and at that point, she looked like a princess.

"Yes Romeo?" she asked and tilted her head to the side.

"Well, I'll just spit it out otherwise I'll never say what I'm trying to say. Will you be my Juliet? But not like married, like my girlfriend."

"No." What, she just said no? Why? I thought, well I guess I assumed…

"No because, I'm not Juliet from Shakespeare, and you're not Romeo. I'm sure that we will get a happy ending!"

The guild was dead silent, for probably the first time ever. Then suddenly, "That was freaking *cough* adorable!" "OMG I so *achoo* ship it now!" "How kawaii!"

"What should their ship name be?" "Ooooh how about *sniffle* Rody?" "Nah Weneo!" "Nope Rowen!" "Yeah Rowen!"

Wendy and Romeo watched this scene unfold in front of them and stood unmoving. Romeo turned and looked at Wendy, and for some reason, that story made him feel different. She was no longer cute, she was pretty.

Wendy noticed him looking at her and blushed, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed him on the cheek. Then she sprinted to the infirmary and locked the door.

A grin exploded on Romeo's face as he felt his cheek.

All of a sudden, everyone didn't feel sick anymore. Their bodies felt normal and no one had the urge to cough or sneeze. The power of Rowen cured them! This meant that those two had to be together!

Meanwhile Mirajane cackled in the background.

Reviews are awesome!
