Levy Mcgarden and Gajeel Redfox didn't exactly get off to a great start...but they have come a long way since that first fateful encounter. But is friendship enough for the two mages? It will take rehashing the past and a lot of working toward the future to figure out whether they are destined to stay by each other's side or...to part ways forever. Set sometime after Tenrou. Gale.

When Gajeel walked into Fairy Tail on December 22nd and saw the majority of his fellow male mages sitting on one side of the room wearing what looked like dorky Christmas sweaters, he just sighed, ordered a beer, and joined them.

The holiday spirit rampages and Levy can't speak of the obvious. Happy belated new year!
