~BAD*SS TIME SKIPPING TO TOMORROW CAUSE I'M KINDA LAZY!~
I walked into class today, because I wasn't late. yay. I sat down, yawned and had a boring art class where he just talked about all the things we would be doing and that soon we would do a sculpture out of clay. I have a few more classes after that and then lunch with Flare (No one else had this time period for lunch on Dark Angels). We talked about writing a song together as a band and ate our lunch.
By the end of the school day I was practically bouncing in my seat, and I almost ran to the music room. Yes! Everyone was there. Minerva, Gajeel, Zeref, Flare, and me. I got out my book and we instantly jumped into ideas on what to write about.
I thought it was pretty good. I quickly matched together what sounded good as a song, put them next to other lines, repeated the chorus, checked to see if the beat was good. It wasn't finished yet but we already knew it turned into a loud, hard, rock song. Awesome! I sang it and they came up with the music to go along with it. It was turning out great. We decided to practice one more with our skills by playing 'Iron Walls' again, we really enjoyed the song.
While playing, I noticed Zeref was smiling, he seemed to really like music. We were about halfway done with Minerva now singing backup when Ms. Lyra, the music teacher, opened the door. We froze but she smiled at us. "YOU SHOULD TRY OUT FOR THE SCHOOL'S BAND!" She looked super excited and really happy. (The school had a band that represented it at concerts and festivals).
Minerva and Flare were excited and Gajeel was too, even if he tried to hide it. I glanced at Zeref, and we both had the same thought. I have stage fright. I looked back at everyone else who was waiting for us to agree. I rubbed my hands together nervously. "I… don't know… it's different… It's one thing to be playing with your friends alone, than to play for… That many… people…" I shuddered.
Minerva gasped and pulled Zeref and I's arms. "YOU BOTH HAVE STAGE FRIGHT?!" We nodded. "Well, then as my position as best friend, I must help you overcome this fear! Let's go jump off something tall while everyone's watching!" We stared at her in shock. "WHAT?! THAT'S SOUNDS CRAZY!" But she just shrugged it off. "It's alright, I'm sure we'll be fine." Zeref said quietly. I nodded my head and we turned back to the teacher.
"Soooo… sign up! And I so give you permission to use the band room as full time detention!" She winked at us. Gajeel and Minerva smirked while Flare and I smiled. A small smile had drawn itself across Zeref's face. I like his smile… wait what? nevermind… I gave a confident smile. "Where do we sign up?"
~We practiced for weeks, (I didn't even need to ask the teachers to let me join detention because I ended up fighting with Natsu… again…)~
~TIMESKIP TO A FEW WEEKS LATER CAUSE NOTHING IMPORTANT HAPPENED!~
I woke up, an instantly felt nervous. Today was the day of the competition. Team Natsu won every year (Yea, they named it after that arrogant B*stard…) but this time it was gonna be different! THE DARK ANGELS ARE WINNING THIS YEAR! I jumped out of bed and fell on the floor, and then springing up from that and almost knocking into the closet door. I was hyper today! I got on Black short shorts, a white crop top with 'Dark Angels' written in red dripping letters, and black combat boots. My mid back length blonde hair was kept out and flowing, I looked good.
I heard a knock on the door and checked the time. It was Zeref. I opened it up and we walked jogged ran sprinted flew to Min-min's house. He was also dressed for today. He had on black skinny jeans, black sneakers, and a black T-shirt that had 'Dark Angels' written in red dripping letters. We finally got there, out of breath, and opened the garage.
Inside was a set of drums, a keyboard, a bass guitar and electric guitar, and lastly a microphone. I pulled my book out of my backpack as we greeted each other "Hey Gajeel, Min-min, and Flare! WE'RE HERE!" I said and they all greeted us. Min-min was wearing ripped white skinny jeans with black splatters on it, a black T-shirt like Zeref's only it was tied to one side with a rubber band, black ballet flats, and a black headband. (We decided that these were the colors we would wear)
Gajeel's T-shirt had no sleeves and was white with red letters. He was also wearing a pair of plain black jeans and black sneakers. "Alright. Let's practice hard before tonight, and then after we can have a massive ice cream party!" Min-min shouted. "Alright! LET'S ROCK!" Gajeel pumped his fist in the air. "We will win for sure!" Flare said. She was wearing a red crop top with 'Dark Angels' in black, a pleated black skirt, and red insanely high wedges. "YEA!" I shouted, and raised my eyes expectantly at Zeref.
He sighed. "Let's do this!" He said in a normal voice, which for him was like shouting. "YES! Let's go!" We got into position with our instruments and played for hours, doing every song we could think of. Time flies and before we knew it, it was time to leave for the performance!
~AND NOW WE'RE AT THE CONCERT~
First on the stage was Team Natsu, they were singing some overused love song that we hated. I looked at the crowd, I didn't think there would be that many people there! I started to panic so I tried to take deep breaths, which didn't help. I felt someone grab my hand, it was Zeref. I could tell that he was silently telling me: Good luck! You'll be all ok! Don't worry! through his eyes. I nodded at him and smiled. He gave a tiny smile back.
They called out "PLEASE WELCOME A NEW BAND: DARK ANGELS!" I could hear the whispers from here. We walked out on stage and Zeref had to let go to settle at the keyboard. Flare grabbed the bass guitar, Gajeel grabbed the electric guitar, and Minerva settled herself on the stool behind the drums with her drumsticks ready. I grabbed the microphone and took a deep breath, and stole a tiny glance at Zeref who was silently cheering her on.
The lights dimmed and the bass started strumming with the beating drums and keyboard. The electric guitar came in and I started singing. (Lucy, +Minerva)
Sparkling angel
I believe
You are my saviour
In my time of need
Blinded by faith
I couldn't hear
All the whispers
The warning's so clear
I felt more at ease. I danced to the beat and let the words come naturally…
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
Now mercy no more
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn to real
You broke the promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie
Sparkling angel
Couldn't see
Your dark intentions
Your feelings for me
Fallen angel
Tell me why?
What is the reason?
The thorn in your eye
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn to real
You broke the promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end
This world may have failed you
It doesn't give the reason why
You could have chosen
A different path of life
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn in to real
You broke a promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end
I sang out the last lines and had my hand raised in the air. The crowd burst into deafening applause and I breathed deeply, trying to catch my breath. I had a huge, stupid smile on my face as I walked out with the rest of my team. "THAT WAS AWESOME!" Minerva shouted. "Gihi. We were awesome!" Gajeel stated with his arms crossed and a smirk on his face. "I think we definitely won!" Flare was jumping up and down. "I loved it." I said with a smile. I didn't make Zeref say something this time, his eyes said it all.
His coal colored eyes were shining full of joy, and that's all I needed to see. We walked back to Minerva's with happiness written all over our faces (Or eyes). "So, how much ice cream do we have Min-min?" I asked. She beamed at me and opened the freezer chest. She had tubs full of Mint, Oreo, Strawberry, Cherry, Chocolate, Rocky road, vanilla, and more. "MY STRAWBERRY!" I instantly grab it and hug it protectively with both my arms and legs wrapped around it. Everyone laughed at that, even Zeref.
"num num num…" I was in ice cream heaven. I might have eaten about 2 tubs of ice cream as did everyone else. Until this happened. FLICK. a piece of mint ice cream landed on Zeref's nose by Minerva. I had to hold my mouth to keep from straight up laughing at him. He threw some choco cherry at her, and there began the ice cream war. I was currently hiding under a table with Zeref. We almost burst out laughing at the sight of each other, covered in ice cream.
Minerva suddenly threw off the table cloth and saw us. She first looked surprised, then had an evil look on her face. We both gulped and she dragged us out to the others. She plopped us down on a couch next to each other and smirked. "Ohhhh Gajeel and Flare! What are we going to do with them." She shook her head at us. "If you two wanted alone time you could've just said so!" She smiled at us with an evil glimmer in her eyes.
Our eyes widened and we turned pink. "W-we weren't doing a-anything under there, I swear!" Zeref nodded madly and the others looked amused. Flare yawned and Minerva decided that we should get cleaned up and hit the hay. The girls went to one bathroom and each of the boys took the other two. We, of course, took the one with the huge bathtub so we could all talk while wiping ice cream off our faces.
I relaxed as I rubbed strawberry shampoo in my hair, we talked about anything and everything. I was using cherry blossom soap and strawberry shampoo/conditioner while Flare used cucumber lime soap and A LOT of green apple shampoo/conditioner and Minerva used mango soap and coconut shampoo with tangerine conditioner so the bathroom kinda smelled weird with all the scents.
We all got into our pajamas, (nightgown- me, baggy shirt and shorts- Flare, full long sleeve pajama set- Minerva), and headed downstairs to watch a movie. We picked out a scary film, and as it was already like 1:00 in the morning, I was completely freaking out.
Gajeel sat in the big comfy chair, Min-min and Flare were on one side of the couch, while Zeref and I were on the other side furthest from the couch. I unconsciously hugged Zeref when it started getting scary and by the end of the movie I was holding on to him like my life depended on it with my face buried in his chest.
Everyone else had fallen asleep by this time, so it was completely silent. Zeref hugged me and rubbed my back to calm me, telling me that it was only a movie and everything was fine. I calmed down and my breathing evened again. We both fell asleep holding each other, my head on his chest and his chin on my head. We are definitely getting teased about this tomorrow.
