A/N: First of all, SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING! Uni has decided to squish my freetime out of existence once again... but I just had to write this chapter (14th chap!) specifically TODAY because it's 14th today! At this point I'm not sure whether I want to mention Valentine's (oh shoot, I mentioned it xD) Day since it's not exactly 'happy' for those single ones out there... but to those who are paired up, HAPPY VALENTINE'S! Anyways, hope you enjoy reading this - no fluff (even though it's Valentine's), but uh borderlining crack methinks ;)

- Chapter 14 -

"What the hell are we doing here?" the Fairy Tail iron Dragonslayer said the metal studs on his face bobbing up and down as he frowned, "oh a fight? Great timing, my skills are going rusty from disuse these days-!"

"You're staying right here," Erza grabbed onto the back of Gajeel's collar as he tried to jump into the Natsu-Loke vs. Gray-Hibiki fray, "good, looks like the kiss worked. Seems like the enchantment was flawed in its making, a kiss from anyone would reverse the enchantment-."

Lucy blinked at how casually Erza was taking the situation and how stupid she had been. Amidst her torrential feelings of embarrassment, shock and confusion Lucy wasn't surprised her brain was lacking a certain element of common sense.

"Gray, Hibiki! They just need a kiss!" Lucy yelled.

"We know that- crap! Ice Make, Floor!" ice sprouted from beneath Gray's hands as he momentarily lost ground. Natsu fell face first into the solid ground with a crunch.

"I mean a kiss from anyone! It doesn't have to be from me!"

"As much as I want to help you, I don't think I can help in that area…" Gray panted melodramatically, throwing more attacks at Natsu and Loke.

"That's kind of cruel Lucy considering Gray got his fair share," Erza smirked teasing a once again blushing Celestial Mage.

"And totally besides the point!" Lucy retorted back.

"Did I hear that I'm to receive a kiss? I'm definitely not losing out on this one! I refuse to lose to that perverted exhibitionist!" Natsu yelled, wiping away blood and ice from his face before altering his attention to a different victim.

"I-I didn't say that!" Lucy jumped avoiding the spew of fire that emitted from the fire Dragonslayer's nostrils in a moment of excitement, "Erza! Do you have my Keys?"

Single-handedly still restraining Gajeel, Erza tossed Lucy's Celestial Keys to its owner. Continuing to skip away from Natsu reach, Lucy headed towards the sea brandishing the Key of Aquarius.

"Oh I don't think so, my beautiful princess," Lucy cursed as she avoided Loke's outstretched hands. Damn it, Loke just had to be the more powerful one out of him and Aquarius! But Lucy's womanly instincts didn't desert her. Swiftly swiping her hands across her Keys, she swapped out another gold Key.

"Open the Gate of the Ram, Aries!" using the smoke from conjuring up the Ram Spirit, Lucy skidded away from a confused Natsu and Loke, "I'm relying on you, Aries!"

"B-But I can't do that-!"

"I'm counting on you!" Lucy's hand went to her Keys again for Horologium but she needn't have worried because her Celestial Spirits were forever dependable.

"Wow, Karen must have trained her well," Hibiki muttered watching Aries breast-tackle Loke to the ground, Erza nodded in silent agreement a protesting Gajeel still very much collar-bound.

"Lucy, Natsu's catching up to you!"

"Stupid cat, stop drawing the attention to me!" Lucy began running again as Natsu's fiery eyes fell on her.

"Run Natsu run!" Happy cheered punching the air with its blue fists.

"Oi, who's side are you on?" the Celestial screeched heading towards the floating Exceed and the forest behind him, Lucy much rather gamble on a game of hide and seek than trying to outrun a crazed Natsu.

"Please don't run Lucy, I would never hurt you!" Natsu pouted and whined.

"Your flame enveloped hands definitely says otherwise!"

"They're just a speed booster… Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!" Natsu shouted before thrusting his arms behind him as the violent burst of flames propelled him forwards.

"GET AWAY!" instinctively she squeezed her eyes shut, already bracing from the impact.

Knowing she was near the trees, Lucy scrambled around in the air for a branch to lift herself up. Having grabbed on, Lucy pulled her arms down with full strength.

A strange silence settled around the mages. Phew, at least I'm off the ground. That turned out better than I thought… I don't feel Natsu on me unless he did hit me and I died and now I'm in heaven-.

"YOU'RE HORRIBLE, LUCY!" her eyes flew open.

The Exceed was very much trapped between Lucy's deathgrip on his green collar and Natsu's lips which were sloppily stuck on Happy's.

Gray's heart settled like a huge weight has been lifted from upon it and a small smile flitted across his relieved face. In a moment of Lucy's genius, I'm definitely ahead of these idiots now.

"Well it's too late to go back to Fairy Tail now let's stay at the hotel for tonight. Besides we haven't celebrated Lucy's birthday properly since this morning," Erza said, having finally let Gajeel go instead was stopping Happy and Natsu from killing Lucy for her stunt.

"I think I've had enough of this birthday…" the Celestial mage replied weakly.

I don't want this fic to become LucyxAll-Other-Male-Chars, I want GraxLu... Lucky Gray to be the only one getting a snog from Lucy xD. But anyways, THANKS FOR READING - it was a really quick chapter and so the standard of it is pretty rubbish, forgive me for any mistakes in it!
