On the second day of Christmas I got today; two feet of snow and one intense flu


(Mira's POV)

It was another day in Magnolia. There are only 3 days till Christmas and everyone is excited. I've come up with a lot of plans for Natsu and Gray and I can't wait to unleash them. I'm excited about today's plan because it revolves around the weather. I'm pretty sure with the season were in you can take a guess at what I mean. I was cleaning the glasses behind the bar as I was thinking of what I plan to do today. I saw yesterday that Natsu was wearing a cat themed hat and gloves. If my theory is correct; hopefully he'll wear them today. I just hope that everything goes as planned this time. "Hey Mira." A voice said behind me. I turned around to see Natsu sitting at the bar.

"Hey Natsu. How are you feeling today?" I asked.

He smiled, "I'm feeling great. Thanks for helping me out yesterday." He said.

I smiled, "Thanks. But it was mostly Gray who healed you. Funny how he can heal and cause you pain." I said. He laughed and I chuckled.

"Yeah, I guess if you look at it like that." He said. I turned around and smirked. They've warmed up more than I thought. This plan of mine is working perfectly.

"Can I get you anything Natsu?" I asked.

"Um; yeah a fire whiskey." He said. I nodded and began to make his drink for him. As I was making his drink I was wondering where Gray was. He wasn't here and I need him here for the plan to work. Soon the doors opened and speak of the devil Gray walked in. He was wearing all his clothes but I assume that won't last long.

"Hey Gray." I called to him. He looked over to me and waved to me. He walked over to the bar and sat down a seat from Natsu. "So Gray, are you excited for the snow?" I asked.

"I'm not sure. It may be both because I love the snow but I'm afraid I'll strip out of reflex." He said.

I sighed, "Gray, you strip all the time whether it's hot or cold. It won't make much of a difference." I said.

He shrugged his shoulders, "That's true." He said. I put the whiskey in front of Natsu and he gladly drank it. Gray looked over to Natsu. "I never knew you drank Whiskey." He said. Natsu put his drink down and looked over at Gray.

"Only occasionally. I don't want to be like Gramps or Cana and get drunk every day." He said. They laughed but it's true. Those two can drink barrels of sake and still go.

"That's good we don't need another drunk." Gray said. I giggled at their conversation. Making fun of the guilds drunks is very entertaining to say the least. I looked out the window and smiled.

"Hey guys look." I said. I pointed to the window. There was snow falling from the sky in small white flakes.

Gray smirked, "Sweet! Let's head out. I want to go out and throw snow at people." Gray said. Natsu agreed and they got up from their seats and grabbed their coats. They put them on and Natsu put on his cat hat and gloves. I smirked, yes he brought them. Step one, complete.


(Gray's POV)

Ah, the snow. My training ground and my element; sort of. The cold is my home and it's always with me. I looked over at Natsu; he was wearing those cat things again. They're cute on him; I guess happy made a good choice getting those. He saw me watching him and he started to blush a bright red. I smirked and we continued to walk. "Natsu, I have a plan. But, I'm going to need your help." I said.

He smiled, "What are you thinking?" He asked.

"I need your help to make some snow balls to throw at everyone." I said.

He smirked, "Alright, let's do it." He said excitedly. I smirked and we ran to a spot where it had plenty of snow and we began to make snow balls together.


(Natsu's POV)

These must be good mittens because I'm not melting the snow. Although its freezing cold out here, my magic keeps me warm enough so that it's not a problem. But, I have to be careful because I just recovered from being sick. So I can't stay out here too long or I'll get sick again and being sick on Christmas Eve is not a plan I have. I formed a snowball with these weird cat hands and it actually helped shape it. When I was shaping it I didn't notice Gray was holding a snow ball over my head. He dropped it down and I gasped at the cold. "G-Gray." I said. I shakily lifted a hand to my head and felt the snow on my head. "Dude, I just got over a cold and you're trying to get me sick again." I complained. I felt tears forming in my eyes. "And right before Christmas no less." I said. I wiped my eyes and Gray put a hand on my shoulder.

"Hey I'm sorry. I didn't think you would react like this." He said. I smirked and smashed a snowball in his face.

"That's what you get you icy bastard." I yelled. I stood up and ran towards the guild and slammed the doors opened. Everyone watched as I ran towards the back of the guild. I slammed the doors open to the back and ran out. I sat down where the river used to be and tried to calm down.


(Mira's POV)

I was boiling mad, what the hell did you do Gray? I clenched my fists as I saw Gray running inside. "Gray, what the hell did you do?" I yelled. He stopped running and looked over at me.

"I have to talk to Natsu. I'll tell you later." He said. I sighed, at least he's going to apologize but I'm still pissed because he may have just ruined the plan all together. I saw him run into the kitchen and I raised an eyebrow.

"What's he doing now?" I asked. I sneaked over to the kitchen door to see what he was up to. He was over at the stove boiling water and has a packet of hot chocolate mix. He opened the pack and began to mix it in the water. "Oh, he's making hot chocolate for Natsu." I whispered. He grabbed two mugs and filled them with hot cocoa and headed for the door. I stepped back and he walked out. "Go get him Gray." I said encouragingly. He nodded and carefully walked to the back doors to comfort Natsu.


(Natsu's POV)

I wiped my face for what seemed like the millionth time that afternoon. Gray hasn't come to check on me yet so I guess he doesn't care. He will always be an icy bastard whether he knows it or not. I looked down in the snow, which reminded me that I was freezing sitting out here. I need to go inside before I get sick again. I was about to get up when I heard the doors to the guild open behind me. I don't care who it is I just want to go home. I heard there footsteps coming towards me and I hid in my legs that were pulled to my chest. They stopped behind me and handed me a hot chocolate. I looked up and saw Gray. "I'm sorry Natsu. I forgot you just recovered the flu." He said. He sat down next to me and drank his cocoa. I sighed and took a sip as well. The heat from the drink flooded through my body like a fire in my belly.

"It's ok. I take the chocolate as an apology. It's really good by the way." I said. He smiled and we drank our hot cocoa together and enjoyed each other's company. "Sorry, about the snow ball to the face." I apologized.

"It's alright, I deserved it anyway." He said.

"And I'm sorry for calling you an icy bastard." I said.

"No problem, I know you don't really mean it." He said. I stayed silent and drank my cocoa. He looked over at me. "Right?" He asked. I got up from my spot on the ground and made a break for it. He saw me and stood up. "Natsu." He called. He chased after me and I laughed. I reached the door and found it locked.

"Stupid door." I muttered. I looked back and Gray was right behind me. He pinned me to the door and my eyes were wide with fright and slight desire.

"I'm right, right?" He asked nervously. My heart was beating quickly and I was about to answer when the door behind me opened and we fell to the floor of the guild. When I opened my eyes I saw Gray was on top of me. He gasped and I was a blushing wreck.

"Ok boys; there's no place here for that." Mira said. My blush darkened and Gray stood up from above me and he extended his hand. I grabbed it and he pulled me up from the ground and I was still blushing since the whole guild saw it. Mira was smiling; Gramps was smirking and Cana she was still drinking so she didn't even notice. Everyone else was just a mix between shocked and what the fuck. "Ok guys, now that these two are back I have some news to tell you." Mira yelled to everyone. Everyone looked at Mira and she grabbed a big bowl. "We will be having a Christmas party tomorrow so I need to you all to pick a name and get that person a present. It's a secret Santa gift." She explained. I smiled big because I was really excited.

"This should be good." Gray said. Everyone quickly lined up to get a name from the bowl. I and Gray stayed back so we don't get crushed or stampeded on. After everyone got a slip of paper Mira walked over to us and showed us the bowl.

"Alright boys, there's two slips left. Pick one and hope you get someone good." She said. We reached into the bowl and we grabbed a slip of paper each and I read the name. My eyes widened and I smiled. Gray is what the slip said. I'm excited to get him something but what can I get him and when I only have a day to get it.


(Gray's POV)

What are the odds that I got him? My slip said Natsu and I was actually excited. But, what should I get him? I sighed; this is going to be harder that I thought. Mira smiled, "I guess that's everybody then." She said.

I looked up at her, "Did you get a slip?"I asked.

She nodded, "Of course, I got mine first." She said. I nodded and she walked back to the bar to serve thirsty guild members. I sighed and looked down at my slip.

"Well, I'm going shopping. Got to go and get a present."I said.

"You want me to come. I need to get a present too." He said.

I shrugged my shoulders, "Sure, who did you get anyway?" I asked.

He smirked, "That's a secret. You'll see tomorrow." He said. I frowned and he chuckled. We walked over to the bar and placed our mugs on the counter.

"We'll see you tomorrow Mira." I said. She nodded and we left the guild hall.


(Mira's POV)

I clapped my hands together. "Yes, finally." I said. I looked over and saw Master sitting on the bar.

"You've done well Mira. I never expected this plan to actually start working until later in the week." Master said.

I chuckled evilly, "My plans never fail. They will get together; I can feel it. And I'm glad Gray got Natsu upset or they would have never done that stunt where they fell on the floor. Ah, classic." I said.

"Yes, I was shocked that happened but they were more surprised." He said.

"Yes, I just can't wait for the party. The oldest party plan in the book is going to come into action." I said.

"And what would that be?" Master asked.

I smirked, "Mistletoe; baby."I said.


Me: Ahh, the old fall to the ground trick. Works everytime.

Natsu: That was not cool.

Gray: what? Why?

Natsu: No, not that. The snow ball to the head. That was so uncalled for.

Me: If i didn't do that the plot for the chapter would have sucked.

Natsu: *sigh* point taken.

Me: *Smirk* I can't wait for the next chapter.

Mira: Yep, Mistletoe

Me: Yep, Now question of the day. Is Juvia the most annoying charector in Fairy Tail (The guild)

Natsu & Gray: YES

Me: My point taken.

Mira: Review
