Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail

(Natsu's pov)

"I…..I….I LOVE YOU!"

"...WAIT WHAT?!"

Her words caught me by surprise. I was not expecting her to say that.

"Y-You m-mean as nakama right?", I stuttered as I tried my best to keep myself cool.

I was really hoping for her to say yes, but my heart sank when she shook her head.

"N-No…..I love you!"

'Oh no! No…..No…..NO!'

My eyes widened as my palms became sweaty.

This couldn't be happening…

'Ok calm down Natsu! Remember all those romance animes you watched with Lucy! There was always a rejection scene! Just act like the main character and turn her down slowly!'

I took a deep breath in and looked into Lisanna's pleading eyes. It made me feel uneasy but I had to go through with this.

'Ok Natsu remember…...take it slow….don't be blunt!'

"Uhh…..Lisanna? I'm dating Lucy"

Step 1: Turn her down slow…...Failed!

Lisanna's eyes widened as she looked at me with a shocked expression.

I could see the hurt in her eyes and on her face.

'Shit! That wasn't slow at all! I guess I have to rely on step 2!'

I put a gentle hand on her shoulder as I tried my best to muster up a sympathetic look.

'Tell her there are other fish in the sea'

"Lisanna I'm sorry….but hey! There's other fish in the sea"

Lisanna pushed my hand away and let her white bangs cover up her eyes.

I saw a single lonesome tear stream down her cheek before she bolted right past me, with her hands covering her face.

'Shit! I feel like I did a horrible job!'

"Lisanna! Wait! Let me talk to you!", I called out as I rushed after her, but unfortunately I lost her.

I slammed my fist on the nearest wall and looked at the ground in frustration.

'Great! A love triangle! Just what I need!'

'How the hell am I going to solve this?'

There was only one person I could turn to.

…

"Natsu~ So you finally learned the value of my parfum~", the man that I didn't want to turn to said as he pulled off a manly pose.

I sweatdropped, "No that's not the reason why I'm here Ichiya"

"It's Ichiya-san~ Natsu-kun~"

"Yeah I'm not calling you that"

"Why not~"

"That doesn't matter right now!"

"You're right~ So why are you here Natsu-kun~"

"Well, a lot of people at school call you the harem master, so I thought you could help me with my problem"

"You came to the right place Natsu-kun~ Ichiya-sensei will help you~"

"O-Ok…"

"So what is your problem~"

I rubbed the back of my neck awkwardly as I sighed, "Well you see…...I'm dating someone right now..but this other girl confessed to me earlier….so I did the only thing I could do"

"You rejected her~"

"Yeah….but I hurt her feelings, so I want to know what I should do"

"I see~"

"So can you help me?"

"Men~", he said as he smirked a wide grin.

"All you have to do Natsu-kun~ Is introduce her to someone else~ Somebody else she can love~"

'Wow! That actually sounds like a good idea!'

"Wow! That's a great idea! Thanks!"

"Men~ Anytime Natsu-kun~"

"Wait but how do I do that?"

"You have to figure that out by yourself Natsu-kun~"

"Really?! You can't help me out with this one?"

"Nope~ But~ I can probably lend you a hand~"

'Wait a minute! I have an idea!'

"Actually that's not going to be necessary Ichiya….because I have a plan", I sent him a smirk before I made my way to Ms. Evergreen's room.

…

"Hey Grandma! Can I borrow your classroom tomorrow after school?", I asked Ms. Evergreen making her glare at me.

"Who you calling Grandma?"

"You...duh"

"I told you I'm not that old!", she seethed.

"Yeah whatever, so can I?"

"Why?"

"It's a secret", I sent her a toothy grin making her angry expression turn into a much calmer one.

"I don't know….."

"I'll talk about books with you during P.E. if you let me"

"Hmm…"

"Please…..", I gave her one of my biggest puppy eyes.

"Fine….but you better not make my room into a mess!"

"I would never! I always teach you with respect"

"Sure~", she mumbled under her breath making me smirk.

My plan is coming along now. All I need to do now is to put it into effect.

…

The Next Day After School

(3rd Person Pov)

"Oi! Jellybean! Are all the contestants here yet?", Natsu shouted as he peeked out of Ms. Evergreen's classroom.

"Oi! I told you not to call me that!", Jellal retorted back as his face became flushed.

"But Erza calls you that"

"Y-Yeah! Because I let her!", Jellal's face became redder and redder by the minute.

"Anyways! Are they here yet?"

"Yeah, but I still don't understand why we're doing this", Jellal said as he sighed.

"I told you, we're trying to find the best suitable boyfriend for Lisanna"

"And why exactly are we doing this?"

"Because we're men~", Ichiya cut in from behind Natsu, "Now let's get this started~"

"Yosh! Jellal send the first contestant in!", Natsu ordered as he went back inside the classroom, and sat down at a table where Gray and Gajeel were already seated.

"Oi! Hot sauce! Why do we have to be here?!", Gray asked.

"Because you guys are going to help me judge the contestants"

"Why?!"

"Because you guys are my friends"

"Tsk! I'm only doing this because Levy said that I should help out", Gajeel huffed as he crossed his arms.

"Well that's good enough for me! So let's get this started!"

...

"Ok tell me a little bit about yourself", Natsu asked the orange haired boy right in front of him.

He scratched his cheek and sent the three boys a smile, "Well for starters I like ramen!"

'Ok...he seems normal'

"And I guess you could say I'm kinda hyper!"

'Does hyper seem like Lisanna's type?'

"And the final thing you should know about me is that I want to become Hokage!"

"Wait what did you say?!"

"Uh…...I said I wanted to become Hokage!"

'Oh no!'

"Nope! Sorry! You can't date Lisanna!", Natsu shouted as he pushed the orange haired boy out of the room, "What?! Why?!"

"Because you're in the wrong story!"

"Next!"

…

"What type of boyfriend are you?", Gray asked the black haired boy with a white eye patch over his left eye.

"W-Well I-I'm not sure", the boy whispered as he played with the book in his hands.

"Ok maybe this will help. Are you the romantic type, the hilarious type, or the cuddly type?", Gray asked the now blushing boy.

"I-I'm not sure! I only came to this interview because Touka-chan said that getting a girlfriend would probably help my self-esteem!"

"Then maybe you should hook up with Touka-chan"

The black haired boy blushed madly as he got up from his seat and bolted out the door.

"Man that kid was really shy"

"Tsk! None of these wimps are good enough for Lisanna!", Gajeel exclaimed.

Natsu groaned as he rubbed his fingers through his hair, "We just have to keep trying"

…

50 Contestants Later

"Please tell me there isn't anymore contestants!", Gray groaned as he leaned back in his chair.

"Ughh...we just have one more….."

There was a knock on the door making everyone heads perk up

"Come in!"

The door opened revealing a tall boy wearing a weird looking mask.

"Yo! The name's Bickslow! It's nice to meet you all!"

'I think he might be the one!'

A/N: If you can guess the first two boys then you have an awesome taste in Anime :)
