Hello my Lovelies, so this addition to Holidays with Fairy Tail is for Thanksgiving - i apologize that it's a few days late i've been busy with some family events-. And just for readers to know usually when I put a horizontal line (on fanfiction it looks like a light line through the screen) that's me cutting the paragraph or moving to a new point of view (as in like going from Natsu's thoughts to Erza's) which I think some of the readers don't realize so just to clear that up. I read these two stories recently that I really like it, (both stories are like the same general plot) it's where Lucy is paying off a debt and so Natsu being the CEO of a Fairy Tail decides to help her if she marries him. One of them is completed the other one is on it's eighth chapter last time i check and they're both in my favorites. For those that are reading Role Reversal the next chapter is up (I know took forever Kayla). Anyway make sure to leave a review:

I do appreciate what a Guest said (they left two reviews) about breaking up the paragraphs and the dialogue how you should have a sentence sometimes when I write dialogue I try my best to do what I have learned in my Comp class and apply different aspects on how you can use dialogue (ex: Gray interrupting Natsu) and sometimes it doesn't happen or I miss some. So I will try with this one to keep those thoughts in mind.


Fairy Tail always have been busy but it always was more busy as a year was coming to a close. Usually when the month of November would come they would have done some Fall get togethers with the city of Magnolia but this year the guild has decided on having a get together with all of their friends from other guilds; Sabertooth, Blue Pegasus, Mermaid Heel, and Lamia Scale. Deciding on having a fall bash for them the guild members have been busy all of November to prepare their guild for the arrival of their friends. Master forming the groups as follows:

Cooking led by Mirajane followed with help from Erza, Kinana, and Lisanna

Decorations Outside led by Freed followed with help from the rest of the Thunder God Tribe and Laki

Decorations for the second floor led by Gildharts with help from Cana, Elfman, Wakaba, and Macao

Decorations on the first floor led by Levy with help from Shadow Gear, Gajeel, Lily, Romeo, Wendy, and Charla

Getting supplies for everything led by Lucy with help from Natsu, Happy, Gray, Juvia, Alzack, Bisca, and Asuka.

Communications led by Warren with help Max, Nab, Vijetter, and Reedus.


A Week Prior to guest arriving at Lucy's

"Natsu what are you and Happy doing in my apartment?!" before I could tell her anything I feel a foot connecting to my cheek before a flash of Lushi's apartment goes by and my body hits the opposite wall. "Ouch Luce that hurts." slowly rising rubbing my cheek while Lucy put her arms under her chest, "Answer my question. Why are you guys here?" Why are Happy and I here? Oh wait never mind I know, "Master said yesterday that we are hosting a Fall Bash with all of the other guilds and you are in charge of getting supplies so that's why Happy and I are here. Wait were is Happy?" looking around not finding him but I can smell him. "Happy get out of my fridge!" looking over Lucy's shoulder to see Happy's body in the fridge.

"But Lushi I'm hungry and you have salmon." the whining in Happy's voice rising at the words hungry and salmon.

"Well Happy that salmon is meant for another day." her arm reaches out and pulls Happy out of the fridge before dropping Happy into my arms. "Some of us actually have to watch what we spend due to things like rent and grocery shopping."

She went to the stove to start a pot of tea before sighing and turning to look at me, "So explain to me what I'm doing for this Fall Bash." smirking in response I start telling her all the details that the first master told me.


A few days before the event

"I can't believe that Mira needs this many eggs!" my eyes were bulging at the amount of eggs that Mira requires to make the food, doesn't ten dozen seem an awful lot for a party.

Bringing the list closer to my face to read off what Mira needs I barely notice Natsu's right arm going around my shoulder and Happy resting on my head, "Come on Luce you know that Sting and I will probably be eating most of that."

"You know Flame Brain has a point for once." looking over my shoulder seeing Gray walking with Juvia next to him. His facial expressions showing no amusement but deep down I know he is looking forward to this event.

"Watch it Popsicle." I shake off Natsu's arm due to the slightly escalated temperature he was producing before wrapping up the parchment into a scroll and hitting both Natsu and Gray in the head. "Knock it off! You guys are going to set a bad example for Asuka." pointing at the said girl who was laughing at the guy's expressions.

Asuka being in between her two parents but seeing all that had just happened gave a smile before we finally walked in the store that the master told us was expecting this order. The bell rang when Bisca opened the door before in front of us stood a tall dark haired man. In fact he looked a little intimidating with his dark irises to match his dark hair along with his built body.

We all see him take a deep breath before a small sweet almost a little kid voice comes out, "You must be the people from Fairy Tail Makorav told me about?" he looked at each of us before he decided on introducing himself, "My name is Ryo, I own the store."

Juvia was the first to awaken from our own stupor, "Yes Ryo-san we are here to pick up the food supplies for Master-san." Ryo nods his head before he heads to the back.

After receiving the packages I tried to pull out the jewels but Ryo just waves my hand away, "Oh no Fairy Tail has always helped out my shop when needed count it as my thanksgiving to your guild." all of us saying our thanks as the guys grab the bags and we start leaving mentioning quick Happy Thanksgiving to him.


"Hey Mira where is Lucy?" Lisanna was pulling out the mixing bowls that they would need to make the cornbread. Mira looks on as the guild doors open to reveal Lucy and her committee. The boys holding the bags of groceries while the girls were talking and playing with Asuka.

"Why Lisanna they're right on time." I smile as I motion for them to head to the kitchen in which the guys quickly drop off the items before heading to the bar while the girls stay and chat for a little bit.

"So Mira how's the cooking going in here?" Bisca mentions looking around seeing a lot of flour on the counters.

"Oh just fine Erza finished all the deserts." pausing to point at the redhead sleeping on a table in the middle of the guild hall. "Kinana is working mainly on getting the fruits and vegetables ready." looking over my shoulder as the said girl comes rinsing some veggies before heading back to the cutting board. "And Lisanna is working on all the cornbreads seeing as how much the guys eat." giggling as I see the Gray and Natsu were trying to grab some food before Lucy had slapped their hands away, "What about your group?"

Juvia was just about to answer my question before Natsu interrupting her holding up a sheet of paper, "Hey Luce, Freed wants us to go and get some supplies."

Lucy groaned as she took the list out of Natsu's hand looking over the items, "Ok this doesn't need all of us… Bisca," the green head lifted her head at the mention of her name, "Do you think that Alzack, Asuka, and you can take care of this. After that is done you guys can head home seeing as I know how you guys wanted to head home early."

Bisca nodded her head before whistling getting the attention of both Asuka and Alzack who were horse playing on the floor, "We got a job to go do guys." all three of them headed to the guild entrance to go, grab their things before waving good bye to all and heading out.

"Lu-chan!" Levy came running through the hall before hugging Lucy while Lucy's face was slowly turning blue.

"Lev… do you think you could… let me go?" Levy looks up to see Lucy's face becoming purple before she realize gasping as she let go and mentions a quick sorry.

"Shrimp we're out of lights." I look over the counter to see Gajeel walking over with his hair even more messed up than usual.

"Oh right Lucy we have some more items that we need to your team to go get." Levy was hesitantly holding up the list knowing how much stress Lucy was receiving in the past few weeks of the amount of supplies that everyone needs.

Natsu grabs the list with Lucy still trying to catch up with her breathing, "Eh don't worry about it Levy, Lucy, Happy, and I can take care of it."

"Yeah right Flame Brain."

"What did you just say Popsicle!" i see Natsu lighting his fist before heading over at Gray.

Thankfully Lucy stood in between them before they could continue their argument, "Yeah that's fine Levy, we will take care of it." Happy flew to land on her shoulder while her right arm was pulling Natsu towards the exit.

I give a small giggle before continuing with the cooking, "Ah young love."


"Lucy why didn't you let me teach that Glacier a leason?" the whine in his voice was clear as a bell.

Happy interrupted him before he could continue on, while I handed the merchant the money in exchange for the supplies. "Natsu face it. When do you ever teach Gray a lesson?"

I laugh at that before seeing the sour face on Natsu watching as he grumbled out in a low voice, "You are suppose to be on my side Happy… traitor."

"Oh Natsu don't be so serious you know Happy would root for you in a heartbeat if you and Gray ever challenged each other." leaving both of them flabbergast while we started on our way back to the guild.

"What's happened to our Lushi?" the corner of my eyes see Happy talking to Natsu in a not so secretive way.

"I don't know must be something she ate." Seeing Natsu shrug his shoulder at Happy's question before placing them behind his head I decide to interrupt were Happy's mind would most likely go next. "You both realize I can hear you right?" looking over at my shoulder to see them freaking out in a second before both of their mouths went to a capital 'O'.

"What cat's got your tongue?" I smirk at my own little joke before looking at them seeing still the same expressions. "Guys?" i move to stand in front of them and wave my hands in front of their face before Natsu breaks out of his daze.

"Luce turn around." his voice showed that what would happen next would surprise me as I slowly turn around I understand now why they were amazed.

The guild had different lights showing the change that this season had brought to us. The symbol of the guild in a bright yellow followed by the words to spell out our guild an orange hue to them. The doors colors change to a dark brown to hint the coming of winter season with no leaves in the trees. All surrounding the guild were pumpkins with a scarecrow that looked like the handy work of Bixlow. The entrance of the walkway to the guild had two fairies with tails on them created by stone with runes crossing over their bodies to make it look like they could come to life at any moment. As the three of us walked closer to the guild I could see that they very top of the guild had green lights in the shape of leaves following by every few minutes the fairy tail symbol would glow to burst out a bolt of lightning having sparks descending from the skies.

"Wow….. Fairy Tail likes to go all out don't they?" looking over at Natsu and Happy who both shook their heads still looking around at the scenery I look at the sun setting behind the forest that led to Natsu's house. "We should drop these off for Levy and then we will be done for the evening." i walk forward a few more steps before looking at Natsu and Happy still standing where I had left them. Well this is going to be a long night.


"Natsu!" I finally tear my gaze away from the outside exterior of the guild to see Lucy at the front doors as she starts mentioning about us going inside Laxus and Freed's little enchantment went off blinking my eyes I see the sparks going around Lucy showing off just how blonde her hair was and how pretty she was. I break out of my gaze when she motions me to follow her but for some reason even after the little enchantment finished I still felt sparks flying in my chest. Hm might have to ask Mira what's happening?


The day of the event:

"Natsu why are you in the kitchen? You know if the master or Erza catches you in here then you are dead right?" i nod but still stood in front of Mira who was going over her check list before she looks to see that I am not planning on moving anytime soon.

"Ok Natsu," she places the paper and pen on the counter before pulling out a bar stool sitting before she looks up at me, "What can I help you-"

"HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE?" I didn't even realize that I was yelling until i saw her leaning away from me. I mumble a soft sorry finding interest in what my feet was doing scruffing the floor.

"Well to answer your question Natsu.. I would say that you feel a flutter every time you see them." her pointy finger resting on her chin before she looked at me.

"A 'flutter'?" confusion coming across my face thinking back on everything that has happened since that spark.

"Yeah like a pull of your heart strings or could even be a spark in your chest at an angle." she got up from the bar stool placing back under the counter while her left hand grabbed a washcloth to clean the counter. "Why do you ask Natsu?"

At this I look up from my foot to see her curious face, "What do you mean 'why I ask' can't a guy ask a question about love?"

Her right hand came up in a signal of surrender, "Yes, but you don't really ask these type of questions so I'm just wondering what brought this question."

I was quite for a few minutes before I figured I could trust Mirajane, "I um… maybe had a spark recently on one of our fellow guild mates."

That's all it took before Mira was in my face asking a bunch of questions; when? Where? Who is she? Does Lucy know? Wait why would she ask me if Lucy knows?

"Mira one at a time, let's see it was yesterday in front of the guild… wait why would you ask if Lucy knows?" i look at Mira to see hearts forming in her eyes.

"Well Lucy and you are partners so wouldn't it make sense for her to know?" her eyes clearing up while a blush was forming on my face. Damn it she noticed, "Unless Lucy is the girl that you had sparks for?" my face turned red as Erza's hair before i was fiddling with my scarf. She yelped of joy before invading my space, "It is Lucy isn't it!" i slowly nod to confirm her hypothesis, "I knew it. I have the perfect plan for you and Lucy to get together."

"Are you sure that's a good thing what if Lucy doesn't-" I couldn't even finish my thought before Mira interrupted me.

"Natsu Dragneel." her voice is scary, "Don't ever assume Lucy doesn't have those feelings for you. Who was the one that saved her from Phantom Lord? You. Who is the one that caught Lucy when she was falling from the sky after Michelle? You! And who is the one that always make sure that Lucy is taken care of? You. Who was the one that brought her to Fairy Tail in the first place?" she looks at me pointing at me before I whispered in a kid voice "me."

"That's right. Now go get Happy so I can tell you to the plan." her once scary voice gone and her smile came back. I quickly nodded heading into the hall to grab Happy.


"Lucy can you come with me?" I look up to see the one guy that I wanted to hang out with the whole night, "Sure Natsu."

I follow behind him as we make our way to the area behind the guild seeing a bunch of different lights surrounding a little blanket. "Oh Natsu did you do this for me?" looking at Natsu who takes my hand to head to the blanket, "Well I had a little bit of help."

After we sit on the blanket I could Natsu was a little nervous while I lay on the blanket looking up at the stars. "Um Luce." I hummed in response to show I was listening, "What are your thoughts on dating a friend?" at this I crack one of my eyes open to see Natsu messing with the strands of his scarf not noticing me watching him with a blush blooming on my cheeks. "Um well I guess it would depend on who it was with?"

"Who it was with?" Natsu looks at me while I avoid his eyes, "Yeah I mean I'm friends with Romeo but I'm not going to date him." He gives a small chuckle before going back to messing with his scarf. "Why do you ask Natsu?" his head sweeps up to see me looking into his eyes.

"Uh well I recently had um a flutter for one of my friends." I felt all my hopes on us every dating go to the pit of my stomach before I mention a small oh. "What's she like?" i look away at Natsu so he couldn't see me trying to hold back a cry of pain.

"Um well she has been my friend for a while and is a little bit of a weirdo. She though has a kind heart and patience of a saint to deal with me since we first met. Happy likes to talk about her weight even though I weigh a lot more than she does." at this i could feel the tears coming down my face before hearing him mention one more thing as he gliding my chin to face him, "Did I mention that Happy and I always sneak into her apartment and eat all her food?" I slowly feel a smile breaking my face while tears of joy were sliding down my face.

We both layed next to each cuddling while the night went on hearing the shouts from the guild members with the other fellow neighboring guilds but didn't pay any mind to it.


So this one-shot is finished and I am going to go and try and finish Batter Up along with the next chapter of Role Reversal. Even though I am most likely going to be coming back quickly to do the Christmas one-shot and NYE & NYD. Can I talk about how one of the recent chapters of Fairy Tail I'm like a little upset about ( the one where Natsu gets a look into his heart) and confuse: First off I thought that Hiro Mashima did a separate short manga of like part of the story of Zeref and Natsu's family before Zeref became the person he is and Natsu being reborn. Maybe that isn't true but I thought that was the case because in that one the dad had Natsu's hair and looked a lot like Natsu except with black hair while the mom had Zeref's hair and looked like him but had Natsu's hair color. Secondly I'm a little confuse with what was going on with Natsu I know that he is most likely going to either a) die soon (which I'm not looking forward to if that's the case or b) turn into END but like I'm not getting the whole thing that is happening with his heart and how Zeref showed up and the Sting but yet nowhere is Lucy who is calling for him to wake up.
