What I'm Really Thankful For

It's around Thanksgiving time. I was really hoping someone, anyone, would contact me. But no one did. Maybe they've forgotten about me.

I wish we could all be together. It was Thanksgiving and I wanted to spend time with my friends. After Tartaros the guild disbanded, and everyone split up. And I was left by myself. I did learn to survive. Loke and everyone were super supportive and stayed by my side.

When everyone left my spirits were my only family, so this year, I'll spend Thanksgiving with all of them. Though I can't summon them all at once. I guess I'm taking another trip to the celestial world. My hand unlocked my new apartment in Crocus where I now lived since Magnolia was in ruins and I decided to leave.

I locked the door and pulled out Loke's key, summoning him.

Loke appeared and smiled, pushing his glasses on his face. "Hey Loke," I greetes sitting on my comfy new bed.

"Hello Princess. How may I assist you?" He replied his hand on his chest. I giggled. Loke was always funny. Even in his own weird way. He was Loke, and Loke, will always be Loke. "I want a favor from you," I said kicking my legs up and down.

"What?" Loke asked furrowing his eyebrows.

"I want to spend Thanksgiving with all of you, but I can't summon all of you, so-"

"So you want me to ask the Celestial Spirit King if you can come to the celestial world. Am I right?" "You hit the marker."

His carefree playboy smile disappeared and was replaced by a serious stern one. Maybe the idea wouldn't pass. "That's something serious your asking Lu, but I can try asking. Do I get something special if I succed?" Loke inquired as his playboy smile returned. "Any special dish. If so I'll make it specifically for you and you alone," I answered.

"Hmm, deal." He complied as he disappeared in a shining yellow light.

Well, I guess it's a maybe right now, but that doesn't mean I still can't do any shopping. I changed my clothes into something a bot more reserved.

I put on some blue jean that hung from my hips and were tight around my thighs. A pink short sleeved shirt that showed no sign of cleavage. Some black Mary Jane flats and a black midriff jacket with my keys abd whip on my belt and my purse at my side.

Then, once again I locked the door and walked out with glee in my stride.

Even if I hadn't known what the Celestial Spirit King's answer was yet I had this feeling he'd just say yes. So how couldn't I be happy, I was just on a roll.

Though my friends aren't by my side I still have to do my best. I promised Natsu I would.

I was walking down the market jubilantly skipping picking up food supplies and other things. It was Thanksgiving and I had so much to be thankful for. For my survival, my friends and for my spirits and life. There were so many things, but where to start.

I just had to figure that part out.

Picking up various items that made me satisfied with my purchases after I decided to head back. I was walking back through the town square when I saw the girl.

She had dark long, blue hair and was with a white exceed, talking to a girl with pink short hair that I classified as Chelia Blendy from Lamia Scale.

Wait! Long blue hair, white exceed. I-it couldn't be. Then, I started stalking closer, in hopes that maybe, just maybe, it was Wendy and Carla. I appeared behind her in scared joy, while Chelia looked at me like I was a maniac.

My hands grabbed the girl's shoulders and I turned her to see her. I dropped my bags.

It was Wendy, and Carla was with her. This-this made me so happy I started tearing up.

"W-Wendy," I choked out as tears clouded my vision. Nothing could describe how happy I was to see someone from Fairy Tail.

"L-Lucy-san," Wendy replied as she also started tearing up too. "WENDY!" I exclaimed too happy if anyone stared or saw, I just held her in a tight embrace.

I was really thankful, wasn't I.
