Chapter 10:
A Christmas Happy Story

Just in the pass two weeks, Natsu had found a perfect house, closed on it and began moving stuff into it. Today however, Lucy told Natsu that they had to take a break from moving stuff because it was Christmas Eve and Happy had been looking forward to it for over a week. "I hope get it," Happy mumbled to himself.

"Hope you get what," Natsu asked as he looked at Happy in the rearview mirror.

"My very own mini helicopter," Happy spoke and he smiled wide.

"Hmmm, well did you tell Santa that," Lucy asked and Happy looked at her with an even wider smile.

"YES and he said that he will see what he can do," Happy responded and Lucy and Natsu gave each other knowing looks.

They arrived at Igneel's home, and Happy ran to the door with excitement breaking out as he knocked on the door like crazy. "I'm coming, I'm coming," Igneel called out as he made his toward the door.

Just as Lucy and Natsu caught up to Happy, carrying gifts, Igneel opened the door as Happy said, "Merry Christmas Igneel!"

"Happy, Natsu, and Lucy! How wonderful to see you two," Igneel greeted and he picked up Happy.

"Great to see you too, dad," Natsu replied with a big smile and a little bit of snow began to fall.

"Oh where are my matters," Igneel spoke then he moved out of the doorway so they could get by.

"Why thank you Igneel," Lucy replied as she made her way in followed by Natsu and Happy, "I'm guessing Grandeeney is in the kitchen."

"You bet," Igneel responded and Lucy went off to the kitchen.

A while later Wendy and Romeo arrived, followed by Gajeel and Levy and not long after that they sat at the table for Christmas eve dinner. At the end of the dinner, Igneel looked around and asked, "Who is ready to open presents?"

Happy immediately started jumping up and down in his seat as he cheered, "I do! I do!"

"Okay then," Grandeeney spoke cheerfully and Happy dashed toward the living room where the Christmas tree was set.

"Happy slow down," Lucy said but Happy was already to far away to hear and everyone else started to for living room.

As everyone took a seat, Happy bounced up and down as he sat next to the tree and reached for his presents. "Happy…," Lucy spoke and Happy looked at her, "Maybe you could pass everyone's gifts around."

Okay…," Happy mumbled and he passed everyone's gifts around.

"Thank you Happy," Grandeeney spoke.

It was just over two hours and Happy opened his last gift, he already got Zoomer Dino, a minecraft hoodie, and a build a bear workshop gift card. "I hope this is it," Happy whispered as he quickly started to unwrap his final gift.

"I think you'll really like this one," Levy said and Happy looked more excited.

Then Happy cleared up all the wrapping paper off the gift and he saw Lite Brite and he looked at it with confusion. "What is it," Happy asked and Lucy smiled brightly.

"Its called Lite Brite," Lucy explained, "You use the pegs to make pictures, it is a lot of fun."

"Yeah," Natsu said as he ran over and sat next to Happy, "I use to make dragons and other cool pictures like that."

"I guess it's cool," Happy responded and he put it aside.

"Whats wrong," Natsu asked and Happy sighed.

"I was really hoping for the helicopter," Happy replied, then he plaid his head on Natsu's arm.

"Hey buddy, don't forget that Santa comes tonight," Natsu told Happy and Happy's face lite up.

"Thats right," Happy cheered and he smiled.

"Thats the spirit," Natsu said as he gave Happy a hug.

After a while, Natsu, Lucy, and Happy headed to the car as Grandeeney said, "You three have a safe trip home."

"Don't worry, mom," Natsu replied after putting Happy in his car seat, "I'm gonna stop at the new house then take Lucy and Happy home."

"Why are we going to the new house," Happy questioned and Natsu smiled.

"I gotta drop off the toaster," Natsu replied as he carried the new toaster that had Grandeeney had given Lucy for christmas since Natsu had broken her old one.

"Oh, Okay," Happy said then Natsu got into the car, started it up and drove off into the snowy night.

After 20 minutes of driving, Natsu pulled up in front of a small two story dark brick house which had a chimney and an amber colored roof. "I won't be long, but how about all we go in, just to have a quick peek around," Natsu said as he got out of the car and turned to get Happy out of the back seat.

"Sounds like a good idea to me," Lucy spoke as she got out of the car. Natsu got Happy out of the car and set him down, then went to the back and got out a new toaster.

Natsu walk up onto the porch and unlocked the door then flipped on the entry way light. "I'm gonna take the toaster to the kitchen," Natsu said then he marched down the hallway to the kitchen.

"Hey Happy, you want to go run around for a bit," Lucy asked and Happy nodded his head and took off but stopped after he passed the living room. Happy turned around and picked into the living and his eyes went wide.

"NATSU! LUCY!," Happy shouted, his excitement filled his voice.

"What Happy," Natsu asked as he and Lucy walked to the hallway.

"SANTA'S BEEN HERE," Happy yelled.

"Thats great," Lucy replied with a smile.

"So do you want to unwrap some more gifts," Natsu said and Happy ran off into the living, "I'll take that as a yes." Afterwards Lucy and Natsu followed him with smiles on they're faces.

When it seemed that Happy unwrapped all his gifts, he looked around sadly and sighed. "Whats wrong," Lucy asked.

"Santa didn't get me what I really wanted," Happy responded.

It was at that moment when Natsu got up and said, "Hey, whats that in the fireplace?"

"What," Happy said as he followed Natsu with curiosity.

"Looks like there is one more gift here," Natsu spoke as he pulled the gift out of the fireplace, "And its to you Happy."

"Really," Happy responded then Natsu handed him the gift and Happy read the gift tag which had his name on it, "It really is!"

"Go ahead," Natsu told Happy, "Open it."

Happy ripped the paper and stared in amazement at was before him, it was a Brand New 3 Channel Gyro mini Metal rc helicopter. It was exactly the helicopter Happy had asked for and he was stunned. "You okay, Happy," Lucy asked with a big smile.

"He actually got me… I can't believe it," Happy stuttered, "A Brand New 3… Channel Gyro mini… Metal rc helicopter…"

"So would you want to take it out for a test drive tomorrow," Natsu asked and Happy set the box down and ran to Natsu and gave him a big hug.

"You better believe I would," Happy responded.

All the while, Lucy fought off tears as she whispered to herself, "I hope I get to spend more Christmases with you Happy."

Dear Readers,

So I wanted to finish this a month ago but time and writers block got in the way. I am sorry. But here it is, a christmas chapter! I hope you guys enjoyed it! Onto to reviewer response:
~snowfairy65- Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter!
~SleepinBeautyK- I get that how shyness coming off as rude thing, my boyfriend when we first met in high school thought I was snob because I was too shy look at him let alone talk. So I totally understand! And yeah, the whole reasons Zeref and Mavis aren't together anymore is because of the reason they aren't getting back together. I'm not gonna into detail on the back story in the story so I might as well tell it here. After Zeref was disowned by Igneel, Zeref's personality changed completely, he began fighting for the wrong people in court and he became a somewhat dark person causing him and Mavis to drift apart and break up. How that makes sense because a quick little summary of Zeref's history. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chapter and continue reading!
~NaluFan4Life- I totally understand what you mean, when I first started writing fan fiction, I told myself that I would never write AU/modern stories but then I got ideas for an AUs and Modern stories and I wrote them. LOL! I am glad you are enjoying this story and I hope you continue to read it!
