Natsu X Ultear
"speaking"
""thinking""
On with the story
It was winter in Magnolia as the snow started to cover the streets and homes
"snow!" Aya screamed as the child jumps into the snow while wearing warm clothing as she started making snow angels on the snow
"Aya, don't play in the snow too long" Meredy said as she was in the middle of making a snowman that had a particular someone's face put on it "you'll get a cold"
North barks as the wolf roll around the snow and tried to make a snow angel with his body
The time of the year spelled fun for the Dragist as the family welcomed the first day of winter with open arms
"Aya won't get a cold, her father is literally a walking oven, he'll just warm her up in no time" Ur said with a smile while only wearing her underwear on
"put on your clothes will you, grandma" Meredy said to Ur as the woman was still a stripper like her student
"snowball fight!" Aya shouted as she threw snowballs at her sister and grandmother
"why you!" Meredy retaliated back as the threw her snowballs at her little sister
"let me teach you why I was the champion on snowball fight!" Ur shouted as she rapidly fired snowballs at her two granddaughters
While the three played around out in the snow, Ultear was in the home sitting on a rocking chair as she preferred staying in the warm and cozy home
She was currently knitting a sweater as she planned to give it to her husband even though the man can't be affected by cold since he was a Fire Dragon Slayer
Natsu was currently out as the man had some groceries to get
Soon, Aya and the rest came in while covered in snow
"so cold!" Meredy exclaimed as the girl was shaking in her boot
"it wasn't that cold" Ur said as she carried Aya who was fine
"for you two, yeah" Meredy said as she went to the fireplace to warm up her body
"ahhhh, that's the stuff" Meredy rubs her hands together before leaning them towards the warm fire as she can feel her body heat rising up
"when is Papa coming back home?" Aya asked her mother while getting the snow that was covering her, dust off by Ur
"probably a few minutes or so" Ultear replied to her little girl while focusing on knitting the sweater
at Magnolia's street
Natsu was in the middle of the street with a grocery bag in his hand as the man was in the middle of going back home
A couple of kids went running past him as he looks to them and smiled a bit before continuing going home
His ears then picked up a familiar voice as he looks in an alleyway and sees Gray talking to Juvia who was holding a scarf in her hands
"Gray? Juvia?" Natsu muttered as he sees Gray rejecting the scarf before leaving away
Natsu walks towards Juvia as the woman was still on the ground
"what are you doing here, Juvia?" Natsu asked the woman who was surprised to see him
"Natsu-san!?" Juvia exclaimed in surprise before she got up and dust off her clothes
"you didn't answer my question" Natsu asked again
"ah, Juvia was trying to give Gray-sama this scarf, Juvia made!" Juvia said as she picks up the scarf and dusts off the snow that was covering it "it was to celebrate our 413th anniversary of meeting each other!"
"413th anniversary, I see" Natsu said before he closes his eye "today for Gray it's a different anniversary for him"
"a different Anniversary?" Juvia repeated Natsu's words
"today is the anniversary of the day his parents died" Natsu told her as this surprised Juvia "it'd be better if you just leave him alone for now"
"Juvia..didn't know" Juvia said in sadness as she tried to celebrate a happy occasion without knowing what the day was for Gray
"he rarely talks about his parents to Ur-san, Lyon and even me" Natsu said as he turns around "he'll come around the next day for now, don't bother him"
Juvia nodded sadly as she wipes a tear from her eyes
Natsu looks to the girl before sighing as he started to walk away
"if you like, come and join my family dinner party tonight. I'll have an open seat for you" Natsu said as he leaves Juvia there and focus on going back home
With Gray
The Ice Mage was walking in the streets, minding his own business before he looks up to the cloudy sky as he sees the snow that is falling
"it sure is snowing," Gray said as his breath colds up
He then hears children screaming and running around as they played in the snow
Gray then spotted one child was with his parents as the mother was wrapping a scarf around the child's neck
Flashback
A 10-year-old Gray was getting his shoes as the boy was excited to go out and play in the snow with his friends
"Gray, stop right there!" Mika, Gray's mother called out to her son as she stopped him from reaching for the door
"what is it, Mom?" Gray asked his mother
"you forgot your scarf," Mika said as she wrapped the scarf around her son's neck
"why do I even need it? It's not like I'm going to freeze out there" Gray said as Silver, Gray's father puts on a snow cap on Gray's head
"you'll need it if you don't want a cold the next morning," Silver said to his son with a grin
Gray stick out his tongue at his father before Mika caresses Gray's head
"now you feel warm right?" Mika said to her son with a loving smile as Gray nodded while touching the scarf around his neck
Flashback ends
Gray then makes a quick turn as he started running to where he left Juvia at
Juvia was walking home as the Rain Mage puffs out her breath into her hands before continuing to walk as she was going towards Natsu's home for the invitation Natsu gave to her
Gray was digging away the snow as he found the scarf, Juvia made for her
He dusts off the snow from the scarf before he put it on
"it's warm" Gray said as he wears the scarf before he walks away
At the Dragist's home
The family was having dinner as Juvia was in
Natsu was setting down a plate that had roasted turkey on the table as Aya drools to the delicious looking meal
DING DONG!
The doorbell was rang as Natsu went to answer it
He opens the door and sees Gray and Lyon at the door
"got room for two more?" Gray asked as Natsu nodded and lets them in to join his family in their dinner
After the family had dinner, they were now in the middle of playing some poker and Lyon with Gray was losing very quickly
"I win!" Aya shouted as she won another round of poker
"to lose against a child.." Lyon grumbled as the man lose 5 times already
"this game got to be rigged" Gray said as he keeps getting a bad hand
At the house's backyard was Natsu as the man just sits back and watches the snow falling down the ground
"you were here" Ultear comes in as she sat beside her husband "what are you doing here?"
"just watching the snow" Natsu replied as he continues to watch the snow
Ultear smiles before the takes out the sweater she made for her husband
"I made you something" Ultear gave the sweater to Natsu as he takes the sweater from her and puts it on but the sweater was a bit big
"looks I made it a bit too big" Ultear said as Natsu takes it off
"no" Natsu said as he puts the sweater on Ultear and joins in the sweater "this is more warmer"
Ultear giggles to her husband as she leans her head to Natsu's chest as she was warm with her husband
Natsu hugs Ultear as he pulled her closer to him
The two stayed there as the snow keeps falling down from the sky and covered the ground
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
