One shot
Making a snowman in the shape of plue
Celeste: hi guys and welcome to the first Christmas one shot. This one is for all you NaLu fans!
Mira: I wanna be in it too!
Celeste: fine but only because it's Christmas and I'm feeling generous.
Lucy: what are you going to do to me?
Celeste: oh you just wait and see my dear Lucy Mwahahaha! Well I don't own Fairy Tail or the characters but let's read and find out what festive things happen to Lucy and Natsu!
Normal POV
A wide yawn emitted from a sleepy Lucy as she stretched out her body in an attempt to shake away the soreness residing there. She had been going on so many missions with team Natsu in order to get present (and rent) money, she's had no time to relax and recuperate as she usually would.
Usually it wouldn't be that bad but when the team tries to be nice and get in the Christmas spirit by letting Natsu choose the mission, they ended up regretting it. He went straight for the hardest one he could find each time he got to pick, resulting in deadly fighting and many wounds Of course they tried to stop him but every time they did he reminded them Fairy Tail mages never go back on their promises. No one was in great spirits after them missions and to make it even better they had to go on twice as many than they expected to because Natsu (being the idiot he is) decided to destroy at least half the town on each mission, consequently leading to only half the payment.
After slowly opening her eyes she decided to keep the curtains closed in order to block out the light, Lucy stumbled out of bed and grabbed a bowl of cereal. After eating it in a sleep ridden daze she dragged herself to the bathroom so she could clean herself up.
A low groan escaped her lips as she saw in the mirror the mess her hair had entangled itself into over the course of the night. After brushing her teeth she slipped out of her pyjamas and jumped into the shower, quickly turning on the tap for the hot water. As it hit her back Lucy screamed slightly, her whole body going into a state of shock before she awakened completely. In her half asleep state she had forgotten that it takes time for the water to warm up..
"Wow! I really did just have a dumb blonde moment there." She giggled to herself as she began scrubbing her body with vanilla shower gel. (A/N no offence meant, I'm a blonde too ha ha)
Lucy lathered her hair in shampoo and carefully washed it out. She then poured at least half of the conditioner that was in the bottle on her hair in hopes of making the process of brushing the knots out much more easy and less painless.
Lucy's POV
I began to think about what I should do today as my fingers worked on separating the knots. I am so glad I can finally have a day off, yes Natsu is my nakama but god can he be annoying at times especially when it comes to missions! Pushing the thoughts of mission out of my head once again, I began to get excited. What should I start with? I could finish the latest chapter of my novel, update fanfiction and maybe write a letter to my parents.
I washed away the last remnants of strawberry conditioner before turning off the taps and clambering out the shower into a white, fluffy towel. I can already sense that today is going to be good...
Over at the guild...
Natsus POV.
I burst through the guild doors with Happy following close behind to find everyone hanging the Christmas decorations all around the room in a happy mood.
"Hey Natsu I'm going to get a fish from Mira, is that ok?" Happy asked.
"Yeah sure, I'm going to find, Luce, Erza and Gray. I'll see you later!" Happy walked off towards the bar and I stood where I was for a while in order to try and find Lucy before the others. Honestly I would prefer it if it was just me and her going but I have my eyes set on a really hard request.
I can't wait to find her, I really want to head out on another mission as soon as possible! I glanced around to find her no-where. After sniffing the air to search for her scent I only found faint traces from when she was here yesterday.
"Hey, metal head! Have you seen Luce anywhere?" I shouted over to Gajeel who was sitting in a corner tuning his guitar. I just hope he doesn't start playing it.
I heard him growl before answering."No, she hasn't been around here today. Now get lost flame brain before you burn down our decorations!" He returned to tuning his guitar and as much as I wanted to go and beat him up I needed to get going on this mission.
I saw Erza and carefully walked over to her. She was leading the guild decoration party by ordering them around with one of her many frightening swords. So many nightmares they have given me, so many nightmares...
I managed to stutter out a nearly in-audible question,"U-um Erza d-do you want to go on a m-mission with m-me, Lucy a-and Gray?"
She slowly turned to face me, the air around her suddenly turning black, the sword which was once pointing to various decorations was now aimed directly at my neck. A voice which could easily give someone a heart attack, started to speak.(in italics)"NATSU, how dare you! Do you know how much chaos this will cause, NEVER interrupt me when I am busy again or there WILL be consequences. How dare you even think that I would have any more time, now go and annoy Gray!" Erza returned to her normal self before going back to order everyone around.
At this point I was a cowering mess on the floor. I swear my life flashed before my eyes! Mental note to self never... Hang on what did I do to Erza again? Oh well it can wait for later.
I picked myself up from the floor and made my way over to Gray who was sitting in his pants, drinking a cup of ice cold water.
"Hey stripper how's it going?" I asked, a smirk appearing on my lips.
"What the hell Natsu, I am not a... WAAAH where did my clothes go?" Gray desperately scrambled to find his clothes before returning to his seat. "what do you want match stick?"
"well as much as I don't want to ask you, I was wondering If you wanna come on a mission with me, Happy and Lucy?" I sat down beside him trying to restrain myself from starting a fight. Something about his face was just... Hitable!
"have you even asked Lucy yet? Besides I can't be bothered today, I have enough money for now so get lost and go find your girlfriend." wow that's three times today I've been told to get lost, don't people want to be around me?
Then I realised something."Hang on I don't have a girlfriend." I was so confused at this point.
Gray let out a long sigh before explaining." it was a joke. God the amount of times you're clinging to her she might as well be your girlfriend!"
"He llllllikes her!" Happy said whilst rolling his tongue and flying in circles.
"Oh you're back!" I hadn't realised Happy was there until he began shouting.
"Aye! I finished my fish. Can we go see Lushy?" he landed on my head, leaning over and showing me his pup... Actually I guess they're kitty eyes. Who could say no to them?
"Yeah, that's a great idea! Let's go, see yah ice princess." Gray only grunted before I ran out of the guild and started going in the direction of Lucy's apartment.
Back to an unknowing Lucy...
I had just finished everything I wanted to do on my list and was starting to get a bit lonely. I Picked up my keys from the edge of my desk and grasped one of them in my hand. "open the gate of the canis minor, Nikora!" After the puff of the white smoke disappeared, a shaking plue replaced it.
I picked plue up and gave him a hug."plueee"
"hey I haven't seen you in ages! Isn't it great that I have a day free!" I began having a conversation with him in great depth. Of course he only replied with 'plue' but I knew what he was saying... I think.
Just as I was about to tell plue about all the missions we have gone on, a certain pink haired idiot burst through my door (the window was still shut) and landed on top of me. His legs were now straddling my hips and his face was too close for comfort.
I felt the heat rising to my face as I stuttered out my thoughts."W-what the h-hell are you d-doing Natsu!?"
"Hey Luce! I need to ask you something." Natsus breath brushed across my face. The smell of fire, coal and something so nice it's unexplainablflow retook my senses.
"f-fine but GET OFF ME" I shouted whilst attempting to throw Natsu off my body by jutting my hips up, but this only caused him to fall further onto me. I felt something soft touch my lips. My eyes grew ten times bigger as I saw an equally surprised Natsu staring down at me.
"mwoove wour wips!" I muttered against his mouth which was still pressed against my own. He immediately jumped up from me as if one of Laxus' electric bolts had ran through him.
" I, am, so, sorry!" Natsu immediately began apologising. His face was as bright as his hair and I suppose so was mine.
"He lllliikkkkes you!" Happy chimed.
"Shut up!" Natsu and Lucy shouted in unison leaving Happy in bursts of laughter.
"Natsu! You just stole my first kiss!" I groaned looking down at the floor, not wanting to make eye contact just yet.
"your first kiss... Ha ha anyway do you want to go on another mission with me?" Natsu laughed nervously before changing the subject.
"does it look like I want to go on a mission? And what's so funny about it being my first kid huh?" I asked, sarcasm coating my face.
"nothings funny and it was my first kiss to, it just reminded me of something Gray said earlier and ummm... Yes." Natsu answered nervously.
"No you Baka! Now leave!" I shouted as I chucked a pillow that I had been sitting on at him.
"ok fair enough what if we do something else?" He pushed the pillow away and asked with his eyes full of want and pleading. Wait! I know them eyes! It's the eyes Happy uses when he wants something, but then again, who could say no to them?
"what do you have in mind?" I asked curiously.
"hmmmm how about, building plue a friend?" Natsu said as he saw plue shivering in the corner of the room.
"What the hell are you going on about? We can't make celestial spirits y'know!" ok Natsu has officially gone crazy. Maybe all the knocks on the head from battles is finally getting to him!
"No, no, no! Out of snow! You did know it has been snowing all today, right?" He went over and sat down on my chair, resting his hands behind his head.
"What!" I clambered over to the window and threw open my curtains. The scene I saw was majestic. Small white flakes of snow tumbled from the sky like millions of diamonds coating the ground in a white blanket.
"Yes, yes, yes! Let's go Natsu!" I grabbed his hand and began dragging him towards the door.
"Woah, woah, woah! Luce I think you need to put different clothes on." I looked down to see I was still wearing my slippers, a vest and some shorts. Wow that was close!
"Plue!" plue said as he agreed with Natsu.
"Oh crap! Thanks Natsu and thanks plue!" I bent down and stroked plue on the head.
"hmmm I don't like the snow, it makes my fur go all fuzzy and I end up like a ball of fur, so I'm going to see Carla! See you Natsu and Lushy!" Before Natsu or I could say anything he flew out the door which had been left open from Natsu bursting in. He shrugged his arms and I started to change.
Normal POV
After Lucy had quickly pulled on long jeans, white snow boots, a warm top and jumper, her and Natsu set out to find a clear space of grass to build a little snow plue.
"Where do you think we should go?" Lucy asked looking for a clear patch but was un-succesful. Every spot was occupied by either snowball fights, snowmen building or some sort of snow activity. It was kinda amusing to watch the little kids running around with the look of pure joy on their faces.
"Ummm how about outside my house? There shouldn't be anyone there because it's deep in the woods." A small puff of steam escaped his mouth as he talked. He looked so cute in the snow, his scarf wrapped tightly around his neck, he is so very handsome... Wow, wow, wow, what the hell am I saying! Maybe I had a few knocks on the head as well.
"mmmm okay!" Lucy said after giving it little thought.
After ducking a snowball which was flying in his direction Natsu chuckled and turned to Lucy."how about we have a race to my house?"
"but I'm not as fast as you!" moaned Lucy a pout appearing on her face.
"Fine, instead of that we will..." Natsu grabbed Lucy's hand and started running. She just about managed to grab plue before she was being dragged behind Natsu, plue was flying in the wind, barely hanging on to Lucy's hand.
"WAAAAHHHH, NATSU!" Screamed Lucy as she nearly fell face first into a heap of snow. They earned a lot of weird stares from the parents and passers bye but they were to caught up in the moment to care.
Natsu soon let go of her hand as they came to a stop outside his house. Lucy rested her hands on her knees to try and catch her breath after carefully dropping a dazed plue on the floor.
"wooo, that was fun!" Natsu pumped his fist in the air, his signature grin appearing on his face.
"Don't... Ever... Do... That... Again!" Lucy panted through rugged gasps of air.
"yeah, yeah. So let's get going with this snowman!" Natsu began rolling the crisp and untainted snow into a perfect sized ball. Lucy laughed and began doing the same. Plue slowly stood up, digging for small round black pebbles for the eyes and a stick to draw the mouth and eyebrows.
After much hard effort and a few snowballs here and there the plue duplicate was finally finished.
"wait! We need a nose for it!" Lucy exclaimed.
"oh, I know! Wait right here Luce." Natsu rushed into his house, re-emerging a few minutes later with a carrot in his hand. "here you do it." he said as he handed her the carrot.
"seriously? Are you sure you don't want to do it?" He just shook his head. She placed it on the snowplue and admired their work for a few seconds.
"thank god!" Lucy collapsed on the cold floor and dragged her hand across her forehead.
"wow we did great!" Natsu said enthusiastically, placing his hands on his hips and marvelling at their work. Lucy began to feel the cold getting to her but when she looked over at plue he wasn't even shivering in the slightest.
Natsu noticed this and said,"Here have this." He unwrapped his scarf and tried to hand it to her.
"no it's ok, it's too special to you I will be fine!" Lucy exclaimed feeling touched at the tender notion.
"just take it! I don't need it, after all I am a fire dragon slayer. Plus I don't want you to catch a cold." after Lucy still refused, he unwrapped it from his neck and bent down to gently place it around Lucy's neck. Staring into her warm, chocolate eyes.
Plue waddled up to the replicate of himself and gave it a big hug. "Awwww that's so cute!" squealed Lucy breaking away from Natsu, her heart beating extremely fast.
One moment Plue was hugging the small snowball and then the next there was a poof of smoke and then Plue and the snow plue disappeared.
"Hey! Get back here with our hard-work!" cried Natsu in dismay as he ran over to where the snowplue used to stand.
"just leave Plue, I mean we did do it for him. Can you help me up?" Lucy asked pushing her hands towards Natsu like a child in need.
"sure, Luce!" He made his way back over to where Lucy had sat down. Natsu grabbed her hands and tried to yank her up, failing and once again falling on top of her.
"Natsu, that's twice today! I think you have serious balancing problems, now will you get off me!" Lucy said, a slight pink tinge arising on her cheeks.
"hmmmm, no!" Natsu smiled, a devious smirk appearing on his lips.
"what do you mean, no?" Asked a confused Lucy.
"Well I quite like it here, but I think one more thing is missing." Natsu's face got closer and closer, his warm breath caressed her lips as he leaned ever more closely, his nose brushing against hers. At first Lucy tried to struggle but she slowly succumbed to the warmth emitting from his lips.
A tingle ran through her body as his moist mouth closed slowly round hers, forcing her to inhale through her nose. The kiss was gentle yet insistent, loving and possessive, such a strange combination. His tongue lightly swept across and between her slightly parted lips. There was an edge of urgency about his kiss, a hunger that might suddenly rage out of control, yet strangely tender and sensuous it reminded Lucy of a loving dragon, her dragon. She felt him move his lips over and round her mouth, tender firm kisses working from the corners, slowly but deliberately nibbling at her, tasting her lip gloss and her natural taste. A small moan escaped her mouth making Natsu inwardly smirk.
Lucy's mind was in over load. How did her cute and dense best friend know how to kiss like that? What the hell just happened? Lucy had finally admitted to myself That she has a crush on the dragon slayer but she pushed it to the back of her mind because she thought he liked Lisanna and didn't want to ruin their friendship.
They both broke the kiss in order to breathe."Natsu when did you... How... Why... Do you even know what you've just done?" Lucy asked breathlessly.
"I'm not as dense as everyone thinks! They only thought I didn't know what love was because I had to keep denying Lisanna, PRETENDING, to be ignorant. Everyone wanted us to get together but-well- to be honest I have been in love with you since the day we met."
He rested his head against Lucy's as she asked."But how?"
"Well dragons only have one mate, they know as soon as they meet them. They get addicted to their scent. slowly losing control of their senses, becoming intoxicated and then they snap. I guess today was that day." he pecked her on the lips, this kiss was simple and sweet compared to the passionate one they shared just a moment ago. Both different but equally as satisfying.
"oh thank god!" Lucy laughed to herself, earning a confused look from Natsu.
"why?" Natsu asked, yearning for an answer.
"w-well, um I have kinda liked you for a while now but, ironically I thought you liked Lisanna!"
"ha ha, silly Luce!" Natsu ruffled Lucy's hair before pushing himself up and yanking Lucy from the ground. "Let's go into my house."
"Yeah okay." they walked hand in hand through the blanket of snow as some people who were spying began to quietly clap.
"I knew it!" whispered an ecstatic Mira.
"Kawaii! I want someone to love." quietly squealed Levy.
"oh don't worry I will get to you next..." whispered Mira.
"sorry did you say something Mira?" Levy asked.
"Nope. Nothing at all!" Mira said cheerfully.
"see, I told you this was going to happen! Natsu was talking about it in his sleep last night." Smiled Happy proudly.
Unexpectedly a fire ball flew through the bush nearly burning the hair of the three supposedly hidden guild mates.
"Get lost you three! Don't think I can't hear you, remember my dragon senses!" Growled Natsu.
The three of them went running away in a fit of screams whilst Natsu re-joined Lucy to cuddle on the sofa whilst watching an anime called soul eater.
So love really does blossom in snow.
