It was just another "normal" day at the mage guild Fairy Tail. Even though it was so early, Natsu and Gray still felt it necessary to be so noisy.

"Who do you think your messin' with charcoal for brains!" grey growled icily as he and Natsu were clashing heads….literally.

"Get out of my face you stripping loving snowmound!" Natsu was getting heated in the head as an evil figure loomed over them. It was Erza, the fire in her hair matched the way she handled these two perfectly. Once they realized the aura enveloping them their enraged faces went pale.

"Why are you two doing this so early in the morning.." she whispered menacingly, obviously annoyed that the room was engrossed with the sound of bickering , she was about to beat the life out of them when Mira got everyone's attention from behind the bar.

"Everyone I forgot something, today is a very important day! We will be starting once again the"" HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE!" Mira was interrupted by everyone's favorite blonde celestial mage bursting through the door, wearing what she had been planning to wear ever since she heard about the festivities on this day. Lucy was wearing a red u-neck shirt that dipped down below her chest and had a pink heart shaped shirt underneath, she wore a white mini skirt dotted with red hearts of all size, her boots and belt along with her key holder were bright pink. Everyone stared at her, eyes bulging at the sight of how beautiful she looked. From across the room Natsu just glared at her and the way she looked, he had seen that last night when he snuck into her room to sleep and found that on the couch.

I don't think I've ever seen her like this…. He just sat there dumbfounded, Gray did the same only not as long, he looked at Natsu and closed his mouth and whispered to the flustered dragon slayer "keep the shit talking hole close before you attract flies. Lucy had noticed the silence and was feeling a little embarrassed, "hey bunny-chan, *Gihee* looks like your face matches with the rest of the ensemble" her face turned an even brighter color of red as the iron dragon slayer flung his arm across her shoulder, irritating her even more. She gave him one good punch to the shoulder; even Gazille had to admit it hurt a little.

She stomped her way to the bar to visit with her team members. Each looking at her amazed at how far she was taking the festivities. When she sat down she got a little glare from Mira, obviously not knowing she interrupted her.

"As lucy had so bluntly said today is Valentine's day!" she shouted and the small guild erupted into cheer. " like we do every year on this day, every person in the guild has to partner up with another person of the opposite gender and compete in the valentine's day challenges" she scanned the room at all the people she could push to be each other's partners. Levy and Gazille, Natsu and Lucy, Grey and Juvia, even Wendy and Romeo. She was a little irritated though because of the fact that Alzack and Bisca were now married she had one less couple to push….unless a certain blue cat and white cat were in a romantic struggle. As she thought of the couples to push a evil looking grin sprouted on her face, not realizing that she still had everyone's full attention. Everyone just chose to ignore it and continue drinking and being loud.

"I wonder who everyone will pair up with." Erza said breaking the silence within the team.

"yeah I'm a little anxious too, not only am I fired up to find a partner I'm revved for the challenges and what juicy prize is put out this year for the champion couple!" Natsu stood on the barstool only to have it kicked out from under him by Gray. Lucy sat in silence playing over the image of entering the guild, once she opened the door to give a big greeting to everyone they all just stopped and looked at her, not in a bad way but as if they had their eyes on a goddess….. But she was mainly focused on the pink haired ruffian once she entered, and he seemed to be fixated on her as well….. He's never looked at me that way before… maybe it was something behind me…. She continued rattling her brain for any plausible answer…except the one she wanted to gear the most from him…. A confession…..of love.
