Happy Nalu week! This is my first prompt for Nalu week which is Lucy's birthday. Hope you like it. Oh and I do not own Fairy Tail and the characters but I do own this plot.

Natsu Dragneel ran a hand through his spiky pink hair for what seemed like the hundredth time of the day. Today was his girlfriend's birthday and usually he would just be smiling with glee at the thought of free cake and drinks but not this day. The pink haired man rummaged through his pockets to make sure that his gift to her was safe and then he began his walk towards her student dorm.

Natsu had always liked picking out gifts for Lucy's birthday, he felt a great pleasure seeing her open them and smile brightly at him no matter what he gave her.

When they were seven and he just had gotten to know Lucy he gave her a flower bouquet because his dad Igneel had told him that girls loved flowers.

Lucy was no exception and she giggled while placing the flowers he picked for her in both of their hairs.

At the age of nine he gave her a little teddy bear that she could hug since her mom just had passed away and she was lonely during the nights. What bugged him a bit was that she still kept that little teddy bear by her bed even though she had him to cuddle now.

By the time of Lucy's twelfth birthday he gave her a red ribbon to tie her hair with since it had grown past her shoulders. Gray and the other boys had mocked him when he helped Lucy tie her hair up but he quickly shut their mouths with swift punches that earned him a scolding from their teacher.

On Lucy's fifteenth birthday in high school Natsu confessed to her and gave her a charm bracelet. He could still remember the kiss she gave him as a thanks and how she said that his confession was the best birthday present ever.

And now at the age of nineteen and in college he hoped that she would think of this birthday gift as the best present ever.

Natsu stopped in front of the room his girlfriend shared with Levy McGarden and took a deep breath before knocking.

"Happy birthday Luce!" He greeted her as she swung the door open.

"Thanks Natsu! You're early. Levy just went out to buy stuff for a birthday breakfast." Lucy pecked his lips as she dragged him into her dorm room.

"Well yeah I wanted to give you my gift before we meet up with the others." Natsu felt his nerves wrecking but silently ordered himself to stay calm.

"Really now? Okay then this got me excited." At her comment he couldn't help but smirk. "Oh I bet I can make you excited." He grinned devilishly at her.

"Natsu you perv! Just give me my gift already!" Lucy blushed at his remark.

"Fair enough." Natsu muttered as he got down on one knee. "You remember how you said that my confession was the best birthday present ever Luce?"

She looked so astonished and could only nod and let Natsu continue.

"Well then, see this as a sort of continuation." He fished up a little box from his pocket and opened it to reveal a ring inside.

"Lucy Heartfilia, will you marry me?" Lucy was quiet for a few seconds before she jumped at him while shouting "Yes, yes! Of course I'll marry you idiot!"

Natsu laughed and hugged her tightly. "Maybe we're a little bit too young but I don't give a shit about that and I couldn't really wait." He grinned and she kissed him feverishly in return.

When they finally separated Lucy quietly whispered "This really is the best birthday gift you can give me."

"I'd like to bet you on that." Natsu answered and kissed her again.

There you have it. Happy birthday Lucy! Thanks for reading ^^
