DISCLAMER: I DONT OWN FAIRY TAIL OR ANY OF THESE GREAT CHARACTERS

Masters P.O.V

As the 14 of Febuary loomed closer i worried what mira had in store for this years valintines day. It was her favorit holiday since she didnt get yelled at for being match maker( which she loved being)and got to do what she wanted to everyone.

I felt sorry for all the young ones. i chuckled to my self darkly as i watched the she devil work behind the bar, probably planning in her head what to do this year.I couldnt do anything for the guild members to prepare them so i just sat back and drank my liqure

Lucys P.O.V. SKIP TO MIDNIGHT

I woke up in the middle of the night after i had a feeling that i was being watched.i scanned the dark room and found nothing there so i tried to lay back down and fall alseep. the stange thing was that the bed felt warmer then usual and when i rolled over there was a moron in the bed next to me. Natsu was fast asleep as if it were his bed and not mine. i bent over and picked up the book i was currently reading up off the floor and smashed it over his head. he woke with a start nocking me out of the bed when he jumped up.Clearly awake i yelled " GET OUT OF MY HOUSE" " why are you so mean lucyyyy?" Natsu asked, rubing his head where i hit him with the book

Grabbing him by the scarf i tried to pull him out of bed and only succeded because he relentlesly got out of the bed. i open the window and told him to get out. he left looking tired and when he jumped down he walked off towards his house. I closed my window and went back to sleep.

when i woke up in the morning i felt tense so i took a nice and long shower.as the water slide down my back i was relaxed. i went and got dressed soon afterward and went to the guild.when i opened the door i went to sit across from natsu and next to gajeel and levy. wendy soon joined us along with happy,carla, and lily.gajeel made a face.

" Hey lucy since when did you smell so much like flame brains over here?" he asked reminding me of natsu sleeping in my bed.

"since he's been sleeping in my bed!" everyone at the table looked at us in suprise and i relized my bad choice of words.I quickly explained what i meant before they told mirajane

just then master stood up and yelled, " SILENCE!"

mirajane stood up on a table and stated to talk about how the next week would go on.there would be a series of compititions and contests to see who could win the prize of 1 million jewel.when she said the reward a lot of heads turned towards her, intrested.

"But", she warned," the teams must be a boy girl pairing by cana. if she doesnt draw your card and anothers though that means you cant compete."

"Im over here and im not coming towards you guys soooo!"cana called from the bar area. everyone lined up waiting for there turn to be matched or let down.

jet and droy agueed in line about who was going to partner up with levy .natsu wasnt going to lose to gray and visa versa.i did it to have something to do. and mira silently laughed to herself because she only told cana that whoever was partnered were to be a couple till valitines day and i would soon find out.mira went first and her partner was laxus which she had no problem with at all and frankly he didnt either. he had a red face too.

when the pairings were done they were put on a sign that was then hung up on the job board. It read:

Couples for the torniment:

Evergreen and elfman

freed and lissana

mira and laxus

juvia and gray

erza and jellal

natsu and lucy

carla and happy

wendy and romeo

gajeel and levy

eveyone in the guild were silent as they read the heading for the chart.expecially those whose names where on the board.me in particular.It said COUPLES???!

Most of the guild turned to Mirajane ,dumbfounded but what they signed up for.I started to feel a slight blush creep up my face. I had to act like me and natsu were a c..cc.oup no i couldnt even think it. I new i made a very shocked face.

"what else can we expect from mira" someone muttered. some of the crowd wasnt mad at the couple fact but that they didnt get to be someones couple. example; jet and droy were glaring pointedly at gajeel where as happy was glad to be with carla.gray look med like he wanted to vomit and natsu looked... well confused.

"ok everyone if you want to win the 1 million jewel you have to sign your name and the board stating that no matter the challeng you have to do it or get discualified."mira told everyone in a voice full of athority.

Since i needed the money i was going to do it i just thought about who my partner was. i was gross being forced to be his ...his.. girlfriend for the challenges. i really hope natsu wasnt that dense not to understand what was happening. everyone about signed their name on the board when mira handed out the paper with the order of contests.the first one was dancing so that was ok. the second one was a quiz which shouldnt be to bad. third was bathing TOGETHER! that was to wrong and then last was which couple kissed the best! I dont think i could survive this.not at all.

Natsu P.O.V.

When i read the list i really didnt see a problem at all. I mean it is'nt like i havent seen a naked lucy but the kiss was a problem because i was told by igneel that you only kiss those you love, right?but i wasnt about to lose to gray.and dancing was easy because lucy and me danced before. we were going to win this!

mira made everyone but the contestents move from the middle on the room. from what i remembered from lucy about dancing was that i had to rest my hands on her hips i think . i could see gray was trying not to rurun away from juvia's grasp while wendy and romeo looked awkward together. I stuck my toung out at gray when the music started. lucy led the dance because it was easier.she smelled good. and was warm.

by the end of the dance elfman and evergreen were out because ever turned elfman into stone mid dance.everyone else earned one point.next was the quiz.damn i suck at quizes.

master asked the questions after all the "couples" had sat down.

"first question, what color are your partners eyes, this ones for the girl."

lucy said onix-correct

erza said brown- correct

wendy said brown -wrong

carla said blue-wrong

mira said blue-correct

lissana said green-correct

juvia said blue-correct

levy said red-correct

Next round the questions were for us boys

the question was what time the girls went to bed each night.

i said really quickly 8 pm on a good night after she writes something down- correct!

gajeel said 9pm-correct

gray said never under his breath-wrong

jellal said 7 pm-wrong

happy said 8pm - correct

romeo said nothing-wrong

laxus said 9 pm-correct

freed said 9pm-wrong

after that the scores were counted and wendy and romeo were out from the contest and i think it was for the good because they were still young.wendy and romeo both let out a sigh of relif after being disqualified.

Lucys P.O.V.

i didnt want to do it but mabye if i dont look and cover myself then i wont die! I was going to win this I mean i had to after the amount dedication i put into it.one couple went in at a time. erza and jellal went in first after erza blurted out that she would go in first. she dragged a half consiouse jellal with a face as red as erzas hair in to the spring. after 30 minutes they came out but jellal was uncounsous, poor thing i thought

an unhappy carla and an estatic happy went into the spring next and came out a little while later.a depressed gray was being dragged into the sping by juvia as she mutter " gray sama is takimg a bath with juvia"to herself. natsu choked on a laugh besides me.next came gajeel and levy who looked so imbarresed as gajeel walked to the spring with her over his shoulder. jet and droy weremoping in the corner the entire time they later came out signaling for mira and laxus to go next. laxus had on a face that was sllightly confused and something else. they didnt taka long either.

i grew more and more nervous when lissana and freed came out it was our turn. you could feel the tension and antisapation in the air as we bith walked to the spring i was pretty much being dragged though.then the torture startes

"Hey natsu you turn around when i change and ill do the same for you k?"it wasnt as if he had a choice because if he didnt he new i would kill him.

He turned around and i quickly striped myself of cloths and stepped into the spring gingerly. I turned around in the water and curled up so he couldnt see me that well.hearing the water he probably got undressed because a moment later i heard him enter the water.i turned around to face him but i lowered myself into the water for just in case.

he didnt do anything but lounge in the water like it was nothing.he was really calm about being in the same water with me .i closed my eyes and went deep in thought for a while. How come he new when i went to bed and what i did before bed also?Talk about stalker status.I wasnt paying any attention to my sorroundings when.i was thinking so i almost jump out of the water when Natsu's voice could be heard next to me.

"Thats it turn around im getting out I think I have been tortured long enough!"i declared ,covering my breast in the proces.

"I don't know what your problem is but suit yourself."he turned while saying this leaving me to blush at his stupid comment.

Climing up the side i dried off and put my close on. "You can come out to you know." i told him on my way out.He seemed to heed my advice becauae i could hear him getting out of the water as i walked out of the room.

I ignore as many people as I can as I storm out of the guild hall, face a blaze.
