Lucy giggled as the cold breeze pass by her. It's December 24 and 1 more day to go and it's Christmas. Lucy had done her Christmas shopping a few days ago and she really knew what to go give to her fellow Fairy Tail members:

Cana: new sets of Tarot Cards

Elfman: Barbell

Mirajane: Strawberry scented lotion

Lisanna: Apple scented lotion

Juvia: a new blue dress

Wendy: an album with pictures of mostly her and Fairy Tail

Charlotte: a ribbon with matching outfit

Levy: 3 new Magic Encyclopedias

Jet: a coat

Droy: a hat

Loke: A pair of new sunglasses

Happy: new sets of fish

Natsu: a knitted sweater (he's gonna need that)

Erza: a sword made of platinum (collector's item)

And the list goes…

Huh? What's that? What about Gray? Well… she haven't got any for him. Heh… ironic right? She and Gray were pretty much close than before and closer than her and Natsu. They would bond together, both equally lecturing Natsu (despite Erza's threats), agree with each other and would most likely praise each other's both combat and non-combat skills.

After all their bonding time Lucy came to the conclusion that she definitely has a liking for the ice-mage but she wouldn't tell him that due to the fact that he was dating Sala, a new comer in the neighborhood but she wasn't a mage nor a member in Fairy Tail Guild.

Of course, she was jealous, she admitted. How could she not? Sala was prettier than her, she wore simple dresses and she had smaller breasts, her eyes would sparkle like the seas, and her orange-flare hair would always be straight and let down, she's caring, sweet, kind, understanding and friendly. Unlike Lucy herself, she was JUST pretty, she would wear revealing clothes, she had disgusting big breasts, her eyes were dirty chocolate, her blonde hair is just boring in many ways of hairstyles, and she maybe caring sweet, kind, understanding and all but she has this way of being over-reacting over simple things and she would be a burden to her friends.

Lucy sighed and went on her way back to her apartment. She was about to go to the guild but after the thought of being a burden and of Sala, she had changed her mind. She might just catch Gray and Sala there, holding hands or Sala's head on Gray's shoulder or Gray's arm around either her shoulders or waist. Her heart clenched in jealousy just by the thought of it.

"Hey Lucy!" a familiar voice exclaimed behind her 'What a surprise… I was just thinking about him and Sala… *sigh* how could this day get any worse?' Lucy thought mentally screaming in her head. She slowly turned and put on a fake smile. "Hi Gray! Hi-!" Lucy cut herself off to only see Gray himself holding a handful of groceries, NO Sala. Lucy tried not jump in joy and do the happy dance in front of Gray.

"Hi, what are you doing here Luce?" Gray asked. Lucy shrugged "I was about to go the guild but it suddenly went cold so I decided to go back to my apartment" Lucy lied. 'Well it WAS half-true' she thought. Gray smiled "Why don't you come home with me and accompany me at home. It's pretty lonely there" Lucy happily nodded but then frowned when Gray wasn't looking 'Lonely? What does he mean? And where's Sala?' Lucy thought as they walked to Gray's apartment.

Gray and Lucy entered Gray's apartment greeted by warmth 'And I thought Gray liked the cold' Lucy thought while taking off her boots and loosening her pink scarf around her neck. "Please make yourself at home" Gray said as he opened the lights revealing the blue walls and a small coffee table near the door and some decorations hanging on the walls. Lucy went into the living room only to find the curtains closed in and the room a bit dark. Lucy went to the curtains and drew them open. "Heh, I like more the dark than the light" Gray said as he set down a cup of tea for Lucy.

"I can see that" Lucy said as she took a seat beside him on the couch. She took the cup and gave it a sip "Mmmm… it's good" Lucy said. Gray nodded in agreement "It's green tea. It's good for the body, it has magic to keep the body warm" Lucy giggled and took another sip. They stayed silent for a while and it kept Lucy from thinking of Sala. But something in her made her look at Gray and into his eyes… sadness… pain… hurt… anger… that's all she saw in his eyes. This gave her the courage to know WHAT HAPPENED and why Sala isn't with him.

Lucy gave an ahem after what seemed to be an eternity "So… uh… Whe-where's Sala? I-i-is she shopping o-or something?" L:ucy asked awkwardly but she went silent when she saw that Gray's eyes were covered by his bangs. Something was DEFINITELY up "She… she… she's…" tears started to cascade down his face with anger in his eyes. Lucy settled down her teacup and started rubbing his back "She's with another man! She's a cheater! A BACK STABBER AND A BIG FAT LIAR!" Gray stood up with range and threw the teacup on the floor, breaking it into pieces.

Lucy stood up and tried to calm him down "Sh…. Gray… Shh…." Lucy victoriously calmed him down and laid his head on her shoulder letting him cry there and rubbed his head. "She's a-a-a…." Lucy shushed him down before he could say the forbidden word. Once Gray had calmed down, he wrapped his arms around Lucy's waist and rubbed his face on her neck making her blush. "G-g-gray?" Gray looked up at Lucy and pressed his lips to hers which made her surprised. After a bit of a while, Lucy melted into the kiss and kissed back.

After a while which seemed eternity they pulled out of their kiss. "I love you Lucy" Gray said as he kissed Lucy's forehead "I love you too" Lucy buried her face into his neck. "Merry Christmas, Lucy" Lucy looked up at his eyes and rubbed her nose into his "Merry Christmas to you too" Lucy pecked his nose. Gray chuckled at her cuteness and savored her scent. "You know, I haven't got you a present" Lucy said. Gray chuckled "I haven't gotten you one as well" Lucy giggled "Well, I just might have the best present" Lucy kissed him and Gray kissed back "Hmmm… I guess, I could live with that" Gray kissed Lucy again.
