Natsu's POV

  *knock knock*

  The door opened revealing a tired looking Lisanna. Her used to be bright blue eyes looks so red, dull and empty. She looked so depressed as if she's heartbroken. Her smooth skin are so pale.  Seeing her in this state makes me feel so bad. I mean, i'm was so happy these past few days with Lucy and here she was, locked up while crying her heart out. But why is she like this?

  "N-Natsu?" She said in shock. I watched her eyes widened in astonisment. I swear, she's gawking at me.

  "Hey, Lis." I greeted, though a bit awkward and uneasy. Who wouldn't? This is the first time i saw her like this.

  "N-Natsu, w-what a-are y-you d-doing h-here?" Stuttering, she looked away from me. I guess in attempt to hide her tear-filled eyes from my view. But it was too late. I already saw it.

  "Why wouldn't I? I'm your bestfriend, right?" I said. Upon saying that, she ran up to me and hugged me tightly. Like she doesn't want yo let go. Though, shocked by her sudden actions, i didn't push her away. Instead, i returned the hug. She cried on my shoulder while i patting her head in a way to comport her. I felt my heart race but not as fast when i'm with Lucy. Am i really inlove with Lucy or Lisanna? I'm so confused right now.

   After that little moment, she let me enter her house. We both sat on her couch.

  "So, mind telling me your problem?" I asked gently as possible. I don't want to force her, though.

  "Huh? Ah eh, i-ts just..." she was stuttering. Why is she so nervous to tell me?

  "Hmm?" I said, obviously waiting for her answer.

  "W-Well, my father is out of town for a couple of months. And you know how close are we, right?" She said. But i know she's lying. She was rubbing her palms together, a mannerism she often do when she's lying or not telling the truth. Though i caught her, i still didn't push her. There are things that needed to be dealt with alone. As much as i want to help, if she doesn't me to be involved in it, i just have to respect her.

  "Oh" i simply said, not bothering to hide the disappointment in my voice.

  "I just kinda feel lonely. You do know about our family problem. My parents are divorced. My mom lives with my grandparents along with Elfman while me and Mirajane lives with dad. Mirajane is hardly home since she works as a model so i'll be alone for sometime. But don't worry. I'll be fine." She said. I saw her lips were quite trembling meaning, she's hiding something. She's not telling the truth. But i don't want to invade her privacy so i let it slip.

  "As you all see, we have to organize a stage play. And ours will be Romeo and Juliet." Sir Gildarts said. A series of cheer, and some groans was heard.

  "So, who wants to play the lead roles?" Sir Gildarts asked once again. Number of students raised their hands. Though, i doubt theyir volunteering. My guess is their planning on pointing out people to play the lead. Sir Gildarts pointed at Levy.

  "I propose Lucy and Natsu to play the lead roles." She said cheerfully. I almost fell off my chair just hearing our names.

  "What?!" Me and Lucy yelled at the same time. We were standing from our seats, a look of astonishment and disbelief flastered on our face. How could they betray us like this?!

  "Since you both are the top 1 and 2 students of this school, it won't be hard for you to memorize the script." Levy reasoned out, receiving countless of 'yes' and yells of agreement.

  "And since you two are in a relationship, it won't be hard to act all lovey dovey. And it won't be awkward for both of you." Erza added. Many agreed.

  "So, it's settled. Lucy Heartfilia and Natsu Dragneel will play the lead roles." Sir Gildarts. 'What? I didn't agreed yet!'
