A costume party.
How long has it been since Mavis took part in one?
Too much time and that's why she wanted to look her best.
She had decided to dress as the Holy maiden of the fairy realm, her beloved instead as the king of thieves who fell in love with the fairy.
It was her favorite fairy tale when she was a child and she felt her heart explode of joyness for finding herself to be like the protagonist of that story, even it was just for one night.
She even cut her long wavy platinum hair into a short, neck-length, bob-like cut.
That cut only accentuated her petite, slender frame more, making her look like a young maiden.
She looked in the mirror, the unique white strapless dress clung perfectly to her small chest and flat stomach, giving it a majestic elegance.
She checked that the two detached long sleeves were in place and she twirled around, checking the bow tie behind.
She couldn't help but smile, she truly felt like a fairy.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Ent-OH!"
She was amazed at the sight of his costume.
He wore a red leather jacket with metal studs sewn onto it, open, showing off his sculpted pecs.
Some very sober red studded trousers that made him seem even taller and finally some dark shoes.
"Oh, Natsu you...you really look just like him."
She approached him and on tiptoe she stroked a pink tuft on his head.
"Hair aside, you're him!"
Natsu laughed fully pleased by that comment.
"Are you saying I'm a real scoundrel, Mavis?"
The warm tone when he said her name sent a shiver of pleasure down her spine.
"Do you want to deny your talent of stealing hearts?"
He smiled mockingly before placing his huge hands on her small hips, lifting her up triumphantly.
"Glad I stole yours then!"
Before she could even reply, his chapped lips rested on her soft ones.
When they pulled away, Mavis's cheeks had turned a bright shade of red.
"You're so dummy!"
She laughed joyfully before cupping his hairless face and nuzzling her little nose with his larger one.
He carried her to the bed, placing her gently on it.
"So, fairy...can I steal some of your time?"
She bit her lip teasingly, drumming her fingers playfully on his powerful shoulders.
"Perhaps..."
She placed her index finger on his lips.
"Or would you rather steal all of me?"
A spark lit in his fiery hazel eyes.
"I love you my fairy."
He whispered softly, slowly kissing her exposed neck.
"I love you my king of thieves."
Her hands clung to his back, wanting these moments to never end.
