It was another ordinary day at Fairy Tail.

Well close to ordinary.

The usually loud rambunctious guild was unusually silent as their mouths hung open to the sight that stood before them.

Freed and Evergreen hand in hand with alight blush adorning their cheeks.

The oldest of the Strauss siblings was happy for the couple but concerned for her brother. Whom had taken a week mission with their younger sister. She hoped that when they returned tomorrow that he'd be strong enough to move on.

Lucy stared at the couple for another minute before a smile adorn her pale pink lips as she stood to congratulate the knew couple. "I so didn't see this coming but congrats you two."

"Thank you, Lucy-san." Giving a slight bow Freed and Ever turned to the rest of the guild as they erupted in cheers.

"Another couple! Let's celebrate!"

Lucy returned to her seat at the bar as Mira placed another strawberry milkshake in front of her. "Thanks Mira, where's Lisanna and Elfman?" After the GMG Lisanna had become a close friend.

"They went on a mmission, they should be back tomorrow afternoon." A sad smile crossed the bartenders face before she could cover up her concern for her brother.

"Elman will be fine Mira, if there's one thing I know after getting to know him, he's a 'man' and will be able to move on." She smiled at the celestial mage's words. He was a man and had a caring heart he would be happy for Evergreen no matter his own feelings.

"Thanks Lucy." Mira began prying into the blondes love life, asking about Gray and Natsu, and if they've asked her to a date yet.

"Come on Mira," a red faced Lucy began "we're teammates and I only see them as brothers, its to weird to think about them like that."

Mira gave a pout as she thought of other males in the guild that would be a good match for the busty blonde.

"Is there anyone your interested in Lucy?" Mira saw the blonde stiffen slightly as she stood from her bar stool.

"Oh . . . uuhh um Erza's calling me Mira I'll talk to you later." With out a glance at the She-Demon, Lucy made a run for team Natsu's table before she could drag her back.

"Hey Luce! What's up?" Lucy looked at her pink haired friend and sweat dropped as he smacked the ice mage for stripping his pants while sitting next to him.

"Nothing just had to put some space between Mira and me before she started mmatchmaking." The group shivered as they remembered their own predicaments when Mira set them up.

Erza was most disturbed when Mira had locked her and Bickslow in the cellar for the entire night. Needless to say Bickslow was traumatized for life when the requip mage called forth her heavens wheel and threaten to remove his genitals if he so muched as uttered a word to anyone in the guild about it.

Gray on the other hand sat in horrified shock as he recounted how Juvia practically tried to rape him during the 7 minutes in heaven crap. Some how it became more 7 hours of trying to keep the rain women from jumping on his rod.

Natsu's shiver came more from the fear that was conjured up from his time with Levy. Mira nearly had him murdered, one thing you never do is mess with a dragons mate. Even a potiental one.

Gray was the first to be brought out of his thoughts, "Sit down Lucy, we'll try to keep her away." There was no way he was going to allow Mira to lock his little sister with some perverted bastard.

"Yea Luce, let's go on a mission!"

"Yes, it would put some great distance between Mira and yourself." Before she could give her answer the guild doors were opened as a familiar voice rang through the rowdy guild.

"Minna, we're back!" Natsu was the first to react. Launching himself off the table he threw himself at the unsuspecting take over mage.

"Your finally back!" Cried the fire dragon slayer as he toppled over the youngest Strauss sibling. "Lucy hasn't been nice at all, she wouldn't let me and Happy sleep in her bed, also she starved us! Look at me I'm withering away as we speak!"

Lisanna patted her pyro boyfriends hair as he cried into her abdomen. "STOP YOUR DAMN WHINNING, BE LUCKY I EVEN LET YOU SLEEP IN MY HOUSE AND PAID MIRA FOR YOUR FOOD." Natsu hid behind his white haired girlfriend as Lucy took menacing steps toward him.

"Uh L-lucy" the guild immediately went silent as the booming voice of Elfman echoed of the guilds walls.

Breaking eye contact with the pinkette, the blonde women turned to the towering man who still stood near the guild doors.

Giving him on of those blinding smiles that made his breath catch in his throat, Elfman stood frozen in place.

"Elfman-nii" Giving him a reassuring smile, Elfman took a step closer to lucy, arms length apart.

"The mission we went on had a c-celestial key along with the reward." Reaching his arm out, he opened his hand palm up. Revealing the bronze key, the tail of dragon making out the handle as the head lay near the tip emerald eyes staring, judging if his next key holder was worthy.

"I-it's Draco, the dragon." Picking up the key with her slim pale fingers, Lucy brought it closer to her face as she examined it. Staring into the emeralds that made its eyes, Lucy was taken back for a sec as she tried to process the 'wink' the dragon key gave her. "Are you sure?" Glancing up at Elfman, he gave her a slight nod before she launched herself into the chest of the take over mage.

"Thanks so much!" Laying a hand on top of the ex heiress' head, the buff man tried his best to fight the light blush that crept along his cheeks.

"N-no problem."
