Hey! Bfly-san here! This is my first very fanfic and I hope you'll enjoy it! Please review!

Disclaimer: I do not own the awesomeness that is fairy tail. Fairy Tail and all its characters are property of Hiro Mashima-san.

It was the beginning of December, and everyone in Fairy Tail as excited about the upcoming Holiday season, but none more so than everyone's favorite waitress, Mirajane.

"Mira!" said the master, "a package just arrived for you!"

"Ah!" exclaimed the white-haired mage. "I'm so glad it got here so quickly!"

"What's in there, Mira?"

"Oh, something special for Christmas this year, Master."

"Oh-ho! I'm glad you're in the Christmas spirit!"

Mira picked up the box and gave Master Makarov a warm smile. "I'm going to set up the Christmas decorations now!" Master Makarov nodded. He was glad that the recently recovered S-Class Mage was starting to get back her power and spirit ever since her younger sister, Lisanna, came back from Edolas. Hopefully soon, she'd get enough of her magic power back to go on missions with her siblings.

Mira made her way upstairs where Fried, Evergreen and Bixlow were sitting. Ever since their leader, Luxus was expelled, they spent most of their days either on missions or upstairs together. She smiled at the trio and said, "Fried, I need to ask a favor from you."

Fried looked at the waitress and said,"Alright, what is it?"

"Well…"

Later on that week, the entire Fairy Tail bar was beautifully decorated thanks to Mirajane's instructions. Many of the Fairy tail mages helped her set everything up. This was Lucy's first Christmas with the guild, and she was in awe with how the bar was transformed. She walked up to the bar where Mira was.

"Mira, everything is just so amazing!"

"Thank you Lucy! Although, I am missing something very important."

"Eh? What could that be?"

Fried then walked up to the bar with a box. "Mira, I did what you asked."

The waitress smiled. "Thank you Fried! With this, the decorations will be complete!"

"Do you need any help Mira?" asked Lucy.

"No, I think I can handle this one on my own. Thanks Lucy."

"Are you sure you want to put those up Mira?" asked Fried. Was there a kind of worry in his voice, wondered Lucy.

"Everything will be fine, Fried." Mira gave him her best smile. Fried shrugged and left the bar. Maybe she was imagining things, thought Lucy.

The following day Lucy got up and went to the guild, as usual. It was chilly that day, and Lucy rushed to get into the bar. As she was walking towards her normal seat, she heard Natsu and Happy right behind her. Oh great, she thought, there goes my peace and quiet. They are so loud! I was looking forward to writing my book today, too.

"Lucy! Good Morning!" yelled the fire dragon, who rushed up towards her.

"Aye!" said his companion and best friend, Happy.

"Morning" she said, and decided to go to their table. As they were getting close they heard Happy yell.

"Natsu, that's so mean! Why did you hit me?" accused Happy, who was now sitting on the floor, rubbing his head and tears in his eyes. Lucy stopped. That was strange, even if Natsu liked to fight, it wasn't like him to hit Happy for no reason.

"Eh? What are you talking about, Happy?" Natsu was going to go to his best friend, when he hit a solid wall. "Ow! What the…?"

"W-what's going on?"

"I don't know, I hit a wall." Lucy walked up to where Natsu was, and felt the wall. She followed the wall and realized that it was in the form of a circle around Natsu and her. They were trapped!

"Stand back Lucy, I'll bust this invisible wall down!"

"Is violence the only way you resolve anything?" sighed the stellar mage. But Natsu wasn't listening, he was all fired up! The Dragon Slayer flared up his hands, and punched the wall where he had hit his head, but nothing happened. This surprised them both. Usually nothing stood in the way of Natsu and total destruction.

"Oh my, so you two are the first ones, huh?"

They turned around to find Mirajane, with her most mischievous smile. Everyone in the guild now had their eyes fixed on the pair, they were curious to know what was going on.

"Mira?" said Lucy in surprise. "What's going on?"

"You won't get out by using your fists, Natsu. You need to follow tradition." Sure, he hadn't done anything to the wall, yet. All he had to do was to keep trying! But with Lucy so close, he didn't want to go all out and risk burning her, so he decided to at least listen to what Mira had to say.

"Tradition?" Natsu had no idea what Mirajane was talking about.

"Yes, Christmas traditions." And the mage pointed up. Natsu and Lucy looked up, but all he saw was some green leaves.

"A plant?" asked Natsu, completely bewildered.

"Idiot! That's Mistletoe!" said Lucy. Why was she blushing so much?

"Mistletoe?"

"Yes, it's a Christmas tradition that if two people stand under the mistletoe, they have to kiss." Said a smiling white-haired mage.

Kiss, mistletoe, him and Lucy? It suddenly dawned on Natsu why Lucy was blushing so much. He could feel his cheeks get hot, or hotter than the normally do. He let out a loud "What?"

There were loud whistles and jeers as everyone in the guild looked on to them. Natsu was blushing furiously.

"I'll just knock down these walls!" he couldn't kiss Lucy here, in front of everyone! Wait, he never even thought about kissing her. She was very attractive sure, but the thought never crossed his mind. But now that he thought about it, his heart was pounding so fast and loud, he was almost certain that Lucy could hear it.

"Lucy, stand behind me." He let out a Dragon's Roar.

"Way to go Natsu!" said the perky blonde behind him.

"Heh, there goes your-what the?" as the smoke cleared, Natsu approached the place where he knew the wall was, and to his surprise it was still there!

"Like I said Natsu, that won't work. I had Fried cast a spell around the mistletoe to prevent anyone from escaping".

The guild went silent, and everyone started to whisper to one another. Escaping? Mira put a lot of thought into this. She's enjoying this a lot isn't she? Mira is scary as ever.

"Then all I have to do is destroy that dumb plant!" he let out another Dragon's Roar, this time aimed at the mistletoe. It had no effect, whatsoever. Damn that Mira!

"Natsu," he looked down to see Happy crying.

"Happy…"

"That's no fair! Why are you stuck with just Lucy?"

"Shut-up you damn cat!" yelled Lucy. "Seriously."

They heard Macau laugh. "Well Natsu, if you don't want to be stuck forever you might as well pucker up!" The entire guild started to shout at the pair. Just then, Lucy had a brilliant idea.

"Levy! Where are yo- What the hell?" Lucy looked in horror as the Solid Script mage was tied up by none other than Erza herself! "Erza! What are you doing?"

"Lucy…" tears were running down Levy's cheeks.

"I figured you would try to use Levy to get out. Traditions are a wonderful thing, they bring us together." Said the most powerful female mage in Fairy Tail, with such seriousness that Lucy decided not to even argue.

"I guess we have no choice, Natsu."

Natsu looked at Lucy with disbelief in his eyes. Was she being serious? Right here, right now? Wait, wont this be his first k-k-k…

"Natsu, close your eyes" she was being serious, and wait…what was up with that cute pose? He knew his face was as read as a tomato; his heart was pounding so fast in his chest. He closed his eyes. At least he was stuck with her.

The suspense was killing him. He wanted to know what was going on, but he kept his eyes shut. What was taking so long? Even his ears felt hot. Then he felt Lucy's soft lips, on his cheek? He opened his eyes, and saw that Fried's spell had been broken. They were free, so why did he feel disappointed? It wasn't like he wanted to kiss her, or did he?

"Ha! I hoped this would work!" said a triumphant Lucy.

There were disappointed moans from the other Fairy Tail mages.

"How did…" said a confused Mira.

"Easy, you never specified where I had to kiss him. I wasn't sure if it was going to work, but I gave it a try" explained Lucy.

"Way to go Lucy!" they high fived each other, glad to escape from the mistletoe and having to kiss in front of the entire guild.

"I see…" said Mira, with a look of…defeat?

As everyone started to go back to their normal business, Lucy looked at Natsu fighting with Gray. He was so cute when he was fighting with Gray for the most trivial thing. Cute? Not a word she would've used to describe him before, but after the mistletoe incident and seeing how much he had blushed with just the thought of him kissing her, she couldn't help but think of him as cute. And although she'd rather die than admit it, she secretly hoped that Natsu would've just kissed her. She smiled at the thought.

"Lucy, why are you smiling?" asked Happy.

"N-no re-reason!" she stuttered.

"Eh? Lucy you're weird!" said the blue cat.

"Shut-up, you damn cat!" and she pinched his cheeks, unaware that a certain fire mage was looking at her.

Mira smiled as she watched Lucy and Natsu. Her first couple had escaped her mistletoe spell, but she had Fried fix it. It didn't go quite the way she planned, but she knew that the seed had been sown. It was a start.
