CHRISTMAS THREE

Lucy's P.O.V

I yawned and sat up. The embers were glowing warmly in the fireplace, and someone was calling my name. I got out of bed and went to the window. Happy

was hovering right outside. "Lucy! Hurry up! Get ready and come to the guild!" He said before flying away. I shrugged and got dressed and brushed my teeth

and hair. I pulled on my winter boots and ran to the guild because it was freezing and the wind was blowing hard. I slammed the door behind me and sighed.

"It's cold out there." I looked up to see everyone staring at me. "What?" I followed their gazes, and it led up to a plant above my head. "Eep!" I yelped, before

running away. The guild burst out laughing. "You're lucky a guy wasn't right there!" I nodded and hurried to sit with my team, but not before checking if there

was mistletoe. "God, Christmas is going to be some big make out session isn't it?" I asked them. Natsu nodded. "Yep, pretty much!" Why do you sound so

happy? I shook my head, changing the subject. "So, there's going to be a Christmas party, am I right?" This time they all nodded. "Yes, and it starts now!" Erza

said eagerly, (A/N I know 'eagerly' sounds weird.) before jumping up. The guild broke into chaos. Music, and dancing, and... mistletoe problems. What was

weird, was I noticed some girls trying to get away, then having to come back and kiss the guy. I looked at Gray and Natsu, who had an un-nerving mischevious

glint in their eyes. I think they're going to push you into the pond Lucy! Lissana's warning echoed through my head. I took heed of it and tried to stay away from

them. It worked through most of the party, but around one o' clock, Natsu started to walk towards me, grinning. Gray was nowhere to be seen. I walked away

slowly, avoiding eye contact and making it look like I was oblivious to his approch. Bam! I walked into something hard... and that 'something', hugged me from

behind. "Gotcha." I wriggled around to see dark blue eyes staring at me, a smirk planted on his face. "Gray! What on earth are you doing!?" I tried to get out

of his arms, but, I was weak, strengh wise, and he was strong, so, I had no luck with that. "Are you drunk?" I asked, getting impatiant. I heard him sigh. "I

figured you would ask that. Nope, completly sober." I frowned. "Then what are you doing?" "Luce...look up." I froze. I didn't need to look up to know what was

there. Nevertheless, I raised my eyes to see the green and white plant, hanging directly above my head. I pretended to squeak in pain, as though his grip hurt

me, and in that moment when he loosened his arms, I darted away, only to get one foot before slamming into an invisible wall. Letters that I didn't understand

momentarily flashed across thin air. "Whaaa? RUNES? Now that's not fair! Levy-chan, what do they say?" She smiled widely and began to laugh. "They say that

to remove the wall, you HAVE to kiss." And she broke down in a fit of giggles. I was completly dumbstruck. "Then don't tell me..." I turned and looked at Gray,

who had a satistfied look on his face. "That's what I wouldn't let you tell me yesterday! God I regret stopping you!" He shrugged. "I don't." I pouted. "Fine.

Let's get this over with." I slowly walked toward him and kissed him lightly. Gray shook his head. "Now that's not enough." He grabbed me once again and

actually kissed me, not just the peck on the cheek like I just gave him. I couldn't believe that I was actually enjoying it. I wrapped my arms around his neck as

the guild burst into cheers. All except one blue haired girl, glaring daggers at me from the corner. We broke apart. Gray caught sight of Juvia. "Boy, if looks

could kill, we'd both be long gone." I laughed, blushing. Lissana came up to me. "So that's what you guys meant when I heard those words. All I heard was

'Lucy, push, and cold.' I thought you were going to push her into the pond." She giggled. "Now I see. You actually meant to push Lucy under the mistletoe with

you! That's what Natsu meant by, 'cold'!" Gray frowned. "But I'm not cold. Why does everyone assume that just because I'm an Ice Mage, that I have to be

cold!?" We all laughed. And that's how my three days Of Christmas went. I gave out all the presents, got some, and went home. Oh, Gray and I dated for a

long time after that, and we, meaning the guild, would experience an interesting visit from some people soon. But that's a different story.

Mizu-chan- I liked this story.

Lucy- Surprisingly, so did I.

Gray- You liked it? Hell, I loved it!

Natsu- Pervert. I only did it to get a good laugh!

Erza- Mizu-san, what do you mean we're going to get an interesting visit soon?

Mizu-chan- (Sweatdrop) No need to say 'san', I'm fine with 'chan'. Oh, and that? You're just going to wait and see. (Mischevious grin.) Oh, and sorry this last chapter was short. Well, I hope you liked it, even If it's two day's off of Christmas!
