The guild was lined with garland and warm white lights, they spun up each pole and covered the stage in a warm christmas beauty. Mistletoes hung randomly around the guild, and a smile tugged on Lucy's face as she walked into the bright guild, Natsu by her side. Lucy spotted out of the corner of her eye a mistletoe hanging just above where the two normally sit at the bar.
"Natsu, Lucy~" Mira sang wiping the counter.
"Hey Mira!" Lucy yelled, walking over to the blond haired mage.
Natsu sat where he normally did, as did Lucy. Mira giggled and pointed to the mistletoe hanging above their heads. Though it was fairly early in the morning every member of Fairy Tail was currently in the guild. Natsu and Lucy looked at each other before slowly leaning in and kissing each other passionately. Mira screamed in excitement causing everyone to look at the couple that was now making out.
Lucy pulled away, a string of saliva still connected the two before it fell, clinging to their chins. Happy flew into the guild, carla closely behind, scolding him. Happy smiled wildly at her causing her to stop and smile warmly at him.
"Hey little buddy what's up!" Natsu yelled waving at his blue friend.
"Hey Natsu I have something to tell you~" Happy sang flying over to him.
"What is it?" Natsu asked.
"Carla's pregnant," he whispered so quietly natsu had a hard time hearing it.
Natsu smiled wildly and said, "So is Luce!"
"N-Natsu not so loud!" she yelled throwing her hands in front of her face.
"Aw Luce you know they'll find out soon enough~" Natsu sang happily.
"What will we find out?" Mira asked.
"Luce tell her," Happy laughed.
Lucy sighed heavily. "I'm pregnant," she said quietly.
Natsu teased her. "Sorry Luce what was that."
The group had once again gathered the attention of the guild as Lucy yelled, "I'm pregnant!"
Natsu bushed. "I said louder not yell it…"
Tears built in her eyes. "That loud enough?"
"HEY! LUCE DON'T CRY!" Natsu yelled throwing his hands in front of his face. "Luce…" he said apologetically.
Lucy thrusted herself into his arms, burying her face deep in his chest. "I love you Natsu," she smiled.
He hugged her his mind racing to what he would soon ask her. "Shit!" he yelled jumping up, and breaking the hug.
"What?" she asked looking up at him.
He smiled down at her. "Don't worry I just forgot something at home I'll be back soon," he said waving to her before running out of the guild happily, Happy following him.
"Hey Natsu what'd you forget?" Happy asked, catching up to his friend.
"I forgot to bring Lucy's ring," he said a smile spreading across his face.
"You're gonna ask her!?" Happy yelled, excitedly picking his friend up and quickly flying to Lucy's house.
In under five minutes the two arrived, Natsu searched for the small wrapped box, the sun would soon start to set and if it did before he found the ring his plans would be ruined.

The sun was setting over the hills of Magnolia as Fairy Tail's newest couple finished their picnic. Natsu was hesitant as he reached into his pocket and said, "Luce I wanted to give you your present now if that's ok," just when he said that Happy and Carla flew over them, and released bags full of small snow like ice particles.
Lucy stared at him with a questioning look. "What is it?"
Natsu handed her a box that when she held it her fingers could not quite touch. She, with shaky hands unwrapped the bow placed neatly on the top of it. Her shaky fingers curled under the flaps of the box as she opened it, revealing a small black box. Tears filled her eyes as she picked it up off if the white fluffy, fake snow. Natsu moved closer to her, as he wrapped her in a hug.
"Lucy," he started.
He used my real name?
"Will you marry me?" he asked as she opened the box.
Tears spilled from her eyes when she finally put the ring on. Lucy said nothing in response to him, she just continued to cry into his chest. "Yes," she finally choked out.
"Yaha!" he yelled flopping onto his back as he hugged her tightly.
