Prologue
It was another evening in the city of Magnolia. The city was bustling with people as they hurry to rush to their homes for the day.
In a cafe nearby ,there was a man and a woman sitting at a table with disguises.Why? Because they were famous.
They would attract lots of attention so it'd be best if they wore disguises.They were holding an open audition for a coming-up movie. They thought it would be best if an ordinary woman could play as an important role in the movie.
However it was really difficult finding one....
"I am totally perfect for this part.I can totally nail it!"said a girl with her face caked up in makeup. Her eyes beaming with excitement was enough for the man to roll his eyes in frustration.
"Ok then try reading this"said the older woman as she handed her a paper.
"Yes okay... 'I strive for perfection and I do not slack off work like a-'"
" Ok we've seen enough"the guy stopped her with low voice
"B-but I just started"
"And we've seen enough.You can go now"he gestured towards the door
"But- but- oh forget it who cares about this stupid role anyway"and she stormed off the place. The woman sighed in frustration
"Natsu you always do this.Whenever we find a candidate who seems to fit the role, you always interrupt them saying you're not interested in them"
"Wha- but its not my fault they dress up like sl*ts and put up some accent which I'm sure is absolutely fake"he argued
" *Sigh* what am I going to do with you?"she replied as she took a sip of her coffee
Natsu just looked around the restaurant hoping something would come his way when someone suddenly caught his eye. It was a blonde haired girl at the counter ordering coffee in the evening.Now that was something you don't see everyday. And her face..... there was no make up. Just some lip balm which gave her lips that glossy look. But what captivated him the most were her eyes...so soft as velvet yet he could catch a glimpse of something unrecognizable in them. 'Interesting' he thought as he observed her.
"What about her?"he said
"Who?Where?"she looked around
"Her"he pointed at the blonde haired girl. The woman then turned to get a closer look at the girl Natsu was pointing to.
"Well......it's worth a shot" She looked to call someone
" hey sir?"she called the brown haired waiter who busy scribbling down orders
"Yes...Can I help you?"he responded looking at her
"Could you please call that blonde haired woman over there?"she pointed towards the blonde haired woman who was paying at the counter.The man nodded and then went to the girl and tapped on her shoulder. The blond haired woman stared at her in confusion before nodding and following him.
"Here she is"
"Thank you..... Shouta" she smiled at him after which left to resume to his work
"Right so moving on....miss you can sit down"she gestured her to sit down
"Oh okay..." as the woman took a seat, she observed the man and the woman who appeared to look like con-men...and then felt uncomfortable as she noticed the man looking straight at her
"So.... why did you call me?"she asked
"We wanted to talk to you about something"
"Okay.. and that is?"
"Something.Can you please introduce yourself"
"Alright. Ummmm my name is Lucy Heartf-Heart...uh I'm 22 years old and I work as an editor"
"Okay so.. Ms.Heart was it? Here you go"she handed Lucy the paper
"Now I want you to imagine that if you were in a movie and you had to say these lines in front of a man"as she gestured her to start
"Oh......but...okay fine I guess..."she took the script. She then proceeded to read the lines.
" I....actually before that...could you please stop staring at me like that? It sort of feels...uncomfortable" she looked at the man who was still staring at her
"Really?"
"Yes..really" it was then the older woman began to feel irritated
"Oh for the love of Mavis! Natsu stop staring like that!" she yelled. Natsu widened his eyes before muttering stuff that seemed as if he wasn't the one at fault. He then shut up and looked out the window before the woman sighed in relief. Lucy then took a deep breath before she continued.
"I strive for perfection and I do not slack off work like a lazy buffoon I have doing this my entire life and I am very good at it very much thank you" she said as she read the lines
Although Natsu was looking out the window the entire time, he eyes were still focused on the girl's eyes as they reflected on the window...eyes dark as a doe. And the way she read those lines....just like a true actress would do.She was.... perfect
Mira looked at Natsu and then had this look on her face
"You done checking her out Natsu?" Mira said with an evil grin
"W-what!? Why would I even do that!? I j-just uugghh I'm gonna pay the cashier"he abruptly stood up to go to the cashier's counter. Mira smirked
"Yeah sure you were well then.... Lucy"the white haired lady put her hand on Lucy's shoulder causing the girl's eyes to look at her in confusion
"You're hired"
"Wait what?!I'm what!?"
"You're hired"she repeated
"I-Im so sorry I don't need to be mean but....I'm just an intern a-and-and if my boss finds out about this...he'd blow up" Lucy said as she bowed her head in apology but Mira was not having it.
"I'll take care of it so for now,you're our girl" Mira replied with a smile
"I'm what?"
"You're perfect for the role you sound totally like the character for our upcoming movie but for now I'm gonna need you to answer some questions"
"Wait...character!? movie..eh!?" the woman ignored Lucy and asked her
"First question: Lucy are you in a relationship?" at the mention of the question, Lucy blushed like a tomato
"Wha- nooo" she shook her head like a meerkat looking for predators
"Second :are you on drugs?"asked the woman as she peered at Lucy
"A-a-hhh noooo"
"Third :do you smoke?"
"Noooo"Lucy held her hands while she shook her head side to side
"Then...that covers it. You're fit for the role!So Lucy come with me "She gestured Lucy out the door . Both of them then approach a huge car with the valet opening the door for the lady.
"I need you to be at Fairytail productions tomorrow at 10:15 am and do not be late okay?"
"Wait I don't know what you're even talking about and and I don't know who you are and-" Lucy was interrupted
"Ssh not to worry. I got it all covered and speaking of that.. since you're now working with us, we might as well introduce ourselves"
Both the man and the lady remove their disguises showing their true forms.Lucy's eyes widen in surprise.
"Mira Jane the director of Fairytail productions! It-it-it's an honour to meet you and- " Lucy shouted before she turned to look at the boy who now flashed his infamous salmon-hair colour.
"Natsu Dragneel!?"Lucy was in shock. Two famous people she thought shed never get to meet in her life now stood before her
"Yup that's me "he said with a grin
"So Lucy you will come tomorrow right?"Mira Jane asked
"But I have work and-"
"Didn't I say you don't have to worry about that?"She sighed. Lucy then nodded her head as she knew she couldn't fight with the lady.
" Then it's decided! You will come tomorrow and we'll take it from there. See you tomorrow then"She waved before she got into the car.
"Hey uh..I'm sorry if I offended you that time by staring at you like a creep" he apologized as he scratched the back of his head. It was then Lucy noticed the tips of the guy's eyes were beet red. She giggled
"Oh no.. it's fine. I'm sure you had a reason for doing that" Natsu then sighed in relief at the mention of her response
"I look forward to working with you"Natsu held his hand and smiled at her. Lucy took his hand and shook it as normal as she could cause she was too nervous but failed miserably and that made Natsu smile at her. 'Cute' he thought as he shook hands with her.
"Oh and before I forget...here's my card...I've added Mira's number too in case you need it so call me or her if you need anything kay?" Lucy nodded before taking the card
"Okay..I hope we have a great time"she replied with a smile.He nodded and went inside the car. The valet then bowed towards Lucy in respect before taking off
"What a day...." she sighed
Meanwhile in the car

"So did you ask her out?"Mira said with a cheeky grin. Natsu blushed furiously
"Mira!I just met her today!"the boy shouted in embarrassment while Mira laughed . And with that, Natsu couldn't get peace and quiet all because Mira kept teasing him.
