"Natsu Dragneel.." I whisper automatically.

He widens his eyes and point straight at me.

"Pinkie!"

I sweat dropped.

"I knew it was you in disguise! I'm so smart!" he complements himself, grinning.

"E-Erza Scarlet.." the blue haired, Jellal, stutters.

Erza avoids eye contact and fiddles with her hands. That's rare to see.

"Hi, my name's Wendy Marvell," Wendy introduces herself to the young boy that was about her age.

His name was...

"Romeo. Romeo Conbolt," the boy replies, smiling.

"Yo, look, another blonde!" the blonde boy, Sting, pointed at Lucy.

"Ugh, it's not nice to point at other people!" she scolds, smacking him in the head.

"Juvia's name is Juvia Loxar," Juvia introduces to the older black haired boy.

"Uh.. Gray Fullbuster," he replies.

Juvia blushes and turns away, her eyes full with worry.

"Hello? You deaf or something?" a light annoyed voice snaps me out of my daydream.

I turned my head to see the pink haired boy, also known as Natsu.

"Oh.. Sorry, my name's-"

"Ariana Bloom, I know," Natsu interrupts.

I roll my eyes. Rude much?

"And you're name is-"

"Natsu Dragneel, but I already introduced myself like a day ago," he interrupts once again..

"Yeah, I remember.." I quickly say before he could cut me off again.

How annoying... -.-

"So how's your rehearsal going?" Natsu asks, looking bored out of his mind.

"Just practicing for our new album," I reply, glancing small looks towards him.

"Cool. Ignite's releasing a new album too. Fire up," he brags.

"Ah is that so?" I try to sound curious and it seemed like it worked.

"Yeah, Jellal was the one to make up the name. He thought because our group name was Ignite, which means fire, we should do something similar to that," he explains, rather descriptively.

I tried to come up with a nice answer or something like that when the only thing that came out of my mouth was, "Okay."

Natsu grinned and tugged on his scarf.

"Is that like your signature outfit or something?" I ask, trying to change the subject.

Natsu looks at me with confusion then realises that I meant the scarf.

"Oh this?" he points.

I nod, trying to get an answer from him.

"It was a gift from my dad. He died a year ago.. It was the last gift he gave before he passed away.." he sadly explains, avoiding eye contact.

I frown. I didn't know it would be like that..

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have asked.. How stupid.." I scold myself, fiddling with my hands.

Natsu smiles slightly. "It's fine. I have to stay strong for my dad. He told me to promise him that."

I smile and ruffle Natsu's salmon pink spiky hair, earning a surprised look from him.

"That's sweet. I'm glad you and your dad have a successful connection!" I complement, pink tinting my cheeks.

Natsu grins and takes my hand in his.

"Thanks. That means a lot, Ari."

My heart just skipped. Wait why? Get a grip, Ari!

"U-Uh, your welcome!" I stutter.

Natsu chuckles and takes his scarf off and puts it around my neck.

"H-Hey Natsu.. W-What are you doing?" I ask, stumbling a little from his sudden act.

"There! You look really nice like that!" Natsu complements nicely.

I blush, unable to control it.

"Thanks!"

Snap.

I blink my eyes from the sudden light and stand there, frozen.

"See? I'm posting this on Instagram," he murmurs before typing rapidly on his phone.

I finally regain control and try to quickly stop him but it was too late...

@natsudragneel9: It's @AriBCelest2 in my scarf. Isn't she adorable? 😍

I blush once again, my cheeks probably on fire. He said I was adorable... No wait, almost every boy idol star says that to girls. And yet I'm falling for it. How annoying... -.-

"Nice scarf, Ari!" Lucy teases, giving me a thumbs up.

I pour and puff my cheeks up when the blonde guy, Sting ruffles her head.

"Hey! Don't touch my hair!" Lucy scolds him, slapping his hand away.

"Meanie," Sting sulks.

I giggle at the sight and forgot about Natsu curiously staring at me.

"Hey, don't forget about me, Ari," Natsu whines, crossing his arms

I roll my eyes playfully and slap him on the shoulder.

"Don't try to flirt, I'm not falling," I tease him, grinning.

Natsu scoffs. "As if. You're way too out of my league."

I huff, puffing my cheeks out with annoyance.

"Now's who's the mean one?" I correct, crossing my arms, tightly.

"You are!"

"Am not!"

"Am true!"

"Ugh you're an idiot," I sigh, giving up on the argument.

"I know..." he replies, getting little giggles out from me.

He just agreed he was stupid.. xD. What's up with him?
