Chapter 7: The Sudden Duet

Start from the beginning
                                    

Gajeel's POV
After about 10 minutes of silence, I heard whoever it was playing some music.

"I know this song," I thought to myself. "It's Between the Raindrops by Lifehouse featuring Natasha Bedingfield. It has to be Fairy Girl on the balcony. I just know it."

Eventually, I heard the first verse play, so I started to sing along to it.

Narrator's POV
As soon as the first verse of the song started playing, Gajeel began singing.

(Author's Note: bold is Gajeel, italics are you, and underlined is both)

Look around
There's no one but you and me
Right here and now
The way it was meant to be
There's a smile on my face
Knowing that together everything that's in our way
We're better than alright

Walking between raindrops
Riding the aftershock beside you
Off into the sunset
Living like there's nothing left to lose
Chasing after gold mines
Crossing the fine lines we knew
Hold on and take a breath
I'll be here every step
Walking between the raindrops with you

"Wait, I just heard Gajeel singing," Y/n thought to herself. "M-Maybe Gajeel is underneath the balcony and heard me turn on my music. Well, singing does help me think clearly, so I guess I should start singing the next verse. I just hope that Gajeel's gonna be singing the chorus with me."

And so, Y/n started singing the second verse.

Hey
Take me now
The world's such a crazy place
When the walls come down
You'll know I'm here to stay
There's nothing I would change
Knowing that together everything that's in our way
We're better than alright

As soon as the chorus came on again, Y/n heard Gajeel singing with her, causing her to blush and smile.

Walking between raindrops
Riding the aftershock beside you
Off into the sunset
Living like there's nothing left to lose
Chasing after gold mines
Crossing the fine lines we knew (Oh oh, oh oh)
Hold on and take a breath
I'll be here every step
Walking between the raindrops with you

As the two kept singing, Y/n started walking towards the rope that was tied to the railing of the balcony and started sliding down the rope while still singing.

There's a smile on my face
Knowing that together everything that's in our way
We're better than alright

Once Y/n's feet hid the ground, she started walking towards Gajeel. After about three feet, Y/n was standing next to Gajeel, still singing the song with him. Y/n put her hand on Gajeel's upper arm, letting him know that she was next to him.

When Gajeel felt someone's hand on his arm, he flinched a little, but soon saw that it was Y/n, Gajeel relaxed, knowing that she wouldn't judge him for singing with her. In fact, Y/n liked singing with Gajeel, and he liked singing with her. Everyone at the guild could tell, especially the girls.

Walking between raindrops
Riding the aftershock beside you
Off into the sunset
Living like there's nothing left to lose
Chasing after gold mines
Crossing the fine lines we knew (Oh you, oh you)
Hold on and take a breath
I'll be here every step
Walking between the raindrops with you (Oh)
Between the raindrops with you
Between the raindrops with you
