Hello, Friends! Here's the next chapter in this series. Hope you will enjoy reading it. It's a little short though.

Lucy: *coughs* well…

Okay dear… I'll say it! But only this one time.

I do not own Fairy Tail or anything other than my bizarre thoughts.

"Cold! Cold! Cold!" Lucy kept babbling while getting ready for her date. "It's damn cold! Cold! Cold!" then, she heard a light knock on her door.

"Lucy, are you ready?" it was Gray's voice. "Yeah, j-j-j-just a minute!" Lucy spoke aloud. Damn! He's so early. "I'm looking good. Pretty!" Lucy talked to herself while appreciating her image in the mirror. Then, a cold breeze blew and touched her. She froze. "It's chilly! Cold! Cold!" she screamed.

"Lucy, are you alright?" Gray shouted as he heard Lucy's scream. He brought his ear close to the door.

The door opened. "Yeah, I'm fine" she spoke. A huge creature wrapped in several layers of wool appeared before him. He backed away a little with a fighting stance. "Is that you, Luce?" he asked, completely bewildered by her outfit. "Yeah, it's me." Lucy answered, moving her woolen scarf below her mouth so that she could speak. Gray burst into laughter. "You look so funny… like a giant snowball." He said, fighting back the tears that started filling his eyes. She became angry at the remark. "I'm not an Ice mage like you. So, I do feel cold." She said. "By the way, where's your shirt?"

"Damn!" Gray spoke as he realized he had stripped off his shirt again, unconsciously.

"Why are we here?" Lucy demanded a reply. "Because you were getting cold, I thought a cup of coffee won't do you any harm." Gray said coolly. The waitress came to the couple with a menu in her hand.

"Good morning. Welcome to our café!" the waitress greeted them with a gentle smile.

"Thank you. Can I have the me…?" Lucy moved her hand to take the menu but the waitress handed the menu to Gray.

"Anything you would like to order, Sir?" she asked Gray with a smile too sweet. He took the menu and started reading it. Bitch! Lucy thought.

"A cup of coffee, please!" Gray said without paying any attention to the waitress.

"Anything more, Sir!" she said.

"Yeah, make it quick." He said in annoyance. This set her temper off and with a stamp of her foot, she went away. Lucy giggled. Gray looked at her in confusion. "What?" He asked. "Nothing. It's just that… forget it, just forget it." She started laughing uncontrollably. "You are weird. Do you know that?" he said bluntly. The comment triggered Lucy's angry mode. "And you're a..." she spoke in fury, only to be stopped by the arrival of another waitress. She placed the coffee on the table and went away. Lucy calmed down and took the cup of coffee in her hands. WHAT A RELIEF! She thought while sipping her hot coffee slowly.

"Hey Gray!"

"Hm…!"

"I may sound weird. But why do I feel like we're being watched?" she said with a serious tone.

"You'll get used to it." He mumbled while turning the pages of the menu.

"What? You mean someone's actually wa…" She said out loud.

"No. Don't be stupid." He turned his attention away from the menu and looked at her. "How can be anyone watching us when there's all snow around this café?" he spoke and pointed at the window. "See!"

Lucy gazed out of the window. "There's no snow." She hissed.

"Say again." he smirked and snapped his fingers in a quick motion. The whole café got covered in snow instantaneously that left Lucy and all the other people utterly bewildered. "Cool, isn't it?" he said with a wide grin, probably feeling a great pride in his act. "Have you lost your mind?" Lucy cursed him. "You do realize that your stupidity has entrapped us here; inside this…this mess of yours…" But then, she paused. "Did someone just call your name?" she asked him.

"You're imagining things." he replied nonchalantly.

Somewhere outside the café…

"Gray-SAMAAA!" the water mage standing outside the snow-covered café, screamed in pain, who had been following the couple till then. "Juvia can't see you!"

"How long will it take to melt?" Lucy asked impatiently.

"Honestly..." Gray spoke indifferently. "I don't know!"

"Don't kid me. It's your ice. How come you don't know?" she screamed. Why am I trapped inside a snowball in this damn cold winter? This is a nightmare! Lucy shouted aloud in her mind. A horrible nightmare!

So, do you like it? Please, leave a review. It'll really help.

Lucy:*shivers* Am I the only one feeling cold?

Gray: Want a hug? *smirks*

Lucy: Back off!

Calm down, Guys! Behave like a couple already, for once!

Apologies! Goodbye, everyone! Have a lovely day ahead!
